Manager Yeager put in Dick Williams.

cinched the game for the senators in the
first three rounds. After that Yeager put
in Converse, the Minneapolis amateur, In
order to save Williams, because he has to
lose other games before cinching last
place. Converse let the locals down with
two hits after the third, and showed great
nerve in tight places. With the game
cinched, the millers let up in the ninth

the result.

D0BIE FOR THEIR COACH
South High School Secures Former
University Quarterback for
This Fall.

The South Side High School Athletic
association has secured the services Of
Gilmore Dobie as coach of the football
squad. Mr.. Dobie showed his ability as
a coach by turning out a wonderful sec
ond team at the university last year.
The prospects for a winning team at
South High are very bright this year.
OF the old men who do not return, the
loss of Hughes at center will probably be
the heaviest Hughes was a star center
for two years. With Hughes go Swenny
Bang, the right end, and Ernest Slower,
left half back. An the other men of last
years squad will return this year, to-
gether with Allison and Murphy, two of
the fastest football players of Litchfleld,
who are going to attend South High.
Henry Burg has already written that he
will be on hand and he is going to try
for his position at guard. South Side
will have their last year guards in line
again. as Jorgens is going to finish high
school this year. I. Peter Ostand and
Johnson, together with Moore and HELM,
will try for the tackle positions. The
ends who will contest for positions are
Chestnut Myrick, Sanborn and Berg.
The quarterback is going to have a
hard time of it this year; but, neverthe-
less, there will be the same contest for
this position as in the others. Doc
Laws, Kersten, Harris and DeVeau try
ing; while the contest for backs will lie
between Harry Capron, George Capron,
Hoover, L. Slower and Mundel. Arthur
Larson and Anderson will try for center,
and any Of these men would give great
deal of strength.
Besides the men already mentioned,
others who intend to try out are IRE,
Rule Havers took, Wingreene, Barlin,
Honistrom, Keg, McWaters Lofgren,
Heddy, Fosseen, Stolen and Ostlund.
The team begins practice Monday, Aug.

Ter Of Philadelphia in the finals of the

opponent. The American player made
many costly faults and tho he showed
better all-round form than he has recently
he did not at any time come within reach
of victory.
More expert players were matched
against. each other in the tennis tourna-
n1ent at Milwaukee yesterday for the
championship of Wisconsin and the con-
tests were marked by better playing than
on the first two days of the tournament.
The best game was. the one between
Larned and Roche, the Chicago cracks.
Roche finally won in two straight sets.
