The U. tf M. rugby team was dtfeated ia Chicago on Thank'giving dy, aĆ­ter a gallant struggle. Fully 3,000 people witnessed the game. The game at the cbse stood 28 to 4, and two goals from touchdowns to one touch down for Michigan. Our U. of M. boys claim another touchdown, but the umpire, S. D. Capen, of Chicago, deciiied the other way. The Chicgi eleven are all old playere, and some of them distinguiahed playera, graduates of eastern colleges. They knew all the trickx. Thpir rushers are heavy men. The U. of 11. boys were crippled in the rush line by the loss of Prettyman, who was barred out by the umpire for slugging an opponent. Peters and Burke, center and lefi. guard respectively for Chicago, were brought fiom Sr. Paul, and were celebrated playeis in their college days. Jim Duffy's playing was conidered wonderful, and one ol the chief feature of the game. The proceeds of the game, $1,200, were given to the Geneva "fresh air fund," the Lake Side sanitarium, and the training school for nurses.
