Michigan will begin a battle for gen

tions In the West. If Michigan does
not return It Is considered probable
that Minnesota will withdraw.
ANN ARBOR. Mich., Nov. 20. No ac
tion on the part of the University of
Michigan authorities since the open
ing of the present football season has
been construed to mean that Michigan
was willing to return to tho Western
Conference,
On the other hand, recent rumors
that Minnesota had decided to break
away from the conference caused what
seemed to be general satisfaction in
university circles here.
Michigan students In general are
eager for future struggles on tho grid

The advantage rained by the ad
vance In classification is not so much
benefit to the league raised as will
be the resolution adopted relative to
the purchase of players la midseason.
This resolution requires all major
learue clubs to recognise the purchase
of players In midseason by the minor
InrnM when these players are select
ed for future delivery. As an Instance
of how the rule may work the following;
may be cited: Portland purchased In

and paid I7S0 for blm to be delivered
next Spring.
Under old conditions a major learue
club could have drafted McDowell for
1300 from the Class C team, and that
club stood to lose IIS0 by the trans
action bad such a draft been made.
Under the new rule, if adopted by
the major organisations, the bis;
learners will have to draft the player
' from the blrher class minor learue.
This method protects all clubs In the
transaction.
In tbs past the major learues bars

ive clubs, but the higher clasa minor
learue teams dolns; likewise stood to

the lower claas team to lose the ad

was an injustice all around.
