In Memoriam: Wystan
Michigan vs. Ohio State: the view from the west end zone, Ferry Field, October 20, 1923.
Our student photographer sat high in the stands, in the middle of the horseshoe, cheering Michigan to victory, 23-0. The cheerleaders (foreground) undoubtedly helped, and so did the marching bands (seen here at left and in the distance, leaving the field at the State Street end.) The teams have returned, and gridiron play is about to resume.
The stands were packed. Attendance that day was calculated at 50,000 -- a record number.
