Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 281, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 November 1913 — Michigan Team Will Not Join Conference [ARTICLE]

Michigan Team Will Not Join Conference

By a vote of 15 to 10, the University of Michigan football team has registered itself as opposed to a return to the western intercollegiate conference under present conditions. The vote was taken by the Michigan Daily, the student publicatidn of the university, in its campaign for sentiment favorable to Michigan’s immediate re-entry in the conference. The vote was a surprise to the pro-conference men on the campus, the 1912 eleven almost unanimously having expressed itself in favor of return. The baseball and track teams voted 14 to 10 in favor of return. Two of the men were non-commit-tal.
