GENERAL SPORTING NOTES.

If King Direct is raced next year it will
be in Geers's stable.
Harvard's share of the receipts satur-
day was nearly $11,OOO.
The American Register Association will
investigate that 1:59A mile Of Cresceus.
The big game of the West next Saturday
will be that of Michigan and Wisconsin at
Ann Arbor.
Lajoie, Hickman, Bemis, Moore and Joss
are the two-year contract players of the
Cleveland club.
No man at Harvard tries for the position
held by the captain of the eleven. The
same is not true at Yale.
They are advertising some unknown as
the Billy Buck Of 1904" 1t is good betting
there will be no Billy Buck of 1904. His
kind does not happen often.
They are going to cut the abandoned
Lakeside track into streets and town lots.
Racing is therefore a thing Of the past at
Lakeside.
A prominent Yale man. who saw Har-
ward and Pennsylvania play, said after the
game: eff Harvard had met Yale to-day
she would lave been beaten "A to o."
Champion Jeffries says that although
Munroe defeated Maher he has by no
means showed that he was entitled to a
match for the heavyweight championship
P%ittsburg will get rid of Harry Smith.
He was offered to the Reds not many
moons ago. Like Billy Maloney, he was a
brilliant IN Class B and a shine in fast
company.
Jack Munroe's victory over Peter Maher
will probably result in the Butte miner re-
ceiving numerous challenges from the
other big fellows. The fighters who would
like some of the Munroe game are kid
Carter, Joe Choynski, Marvin Hart, Jack
Root, Hank Griffin and philadelphia" Jack
O'Brien. Munroe's next fight will probably
be with Sandy Ferguson, the Boston heavy
weight. The Criterion Athletic Club Of
Boston has made them an offer.
The earnings of Cresceus. 1884, in the
stud and on the turf during the season
aggregate close to $50, 900. He earned SIG, 500
in the stud, and his ten exhibitions in the
West, including his marvellous mile in 1:59%
at Wichita, Kan, aggregate a trife over
Sl0 .OO0. When Mr.. Ketcham was offered
500. 900 for Cresceus last winter by a Cana
dian gentleman, some of his friends ad-
vised him to sell, but his earning capacity
this season indicates that Mr.. Ketcham's
price, SIS, 600, was very reasonable.

FOR GRADUATE COACHES.
Big Change May Be Made mt Illinois
Next Year.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
URBANA, Ill, Nov. 10.-Graduate coach
ing at the University of Illinois is believed
to be an assured fact as a result of the
fiasco of the Illini at Bloomington last
Friday. While nothing official has been
given out. there is no doubt that Illinois
is looking to it's alumni for coaches next
year.
About the rooters' gatherings the idea is
prominently mentioned are Bob Hotchkiss
and Way Woody for the back field and
Fred Lowenthal and Tom Beadle for the
line. Clyde Mathews and Justa Lundgren
are men who will also be considered.
The graduate coaching plan will likely
stand or fall by the result of SATURDAYS
contest with the giant Gophers. Should
Minnesota. the face of things might
change. But no man with a sane mind
can see how Illinois can beat one of the
best teams in the West, as Minnesota has
a right to be considered.
The Him resumed practice on Illinois
Field last evening. Determined to make a
good showing against Minnesota and re-
the orange and blue men worked with a
will.
In response TO a request from Coach
Woodruff, WAY Woody and George Maths
came out to assist in bracing the team.
They devoted themselves to the backfeld.
Coach Woodruff is making no recrimina-
tions When he signed his contract he
expressed a willingness to take all blame
II the team failed and he Is not hedging.
Woodruff made another change when he
shifted big Hazelwood back to center. 1t
is believed the big fellow will be kept there

FOR STATE CHAMPIONSHIP
INDIANA AND NOTRE DAME MAY
PLAY IN INDIANAPOLIS.
Efforts Being Made to Arrange a Post
Season Game-Wabash's Claims Are
Not Taken Seriously.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. Nov. 10.-The
varsity team, after a rest of two days fol-
lowing the Illinois game, has resumed
practice. Dodson and Smith both have in
Jured knees which may keep them out of
the game for the season. This will be a
serious handicap to the team, as there are
no good substitutes to take their places.
The work of the back field was some
what slow In the Illinois game, n a de-
cided drop from the form shown while pre-
pairing for Purdue. 1t is felt here that
while the work of the line against Illinois
was of a very high order. yet if the team,
as a whole, had shown the form of the pre-
vious week that a much more decisive
victory would lave been the result.
Coach Horne is now trying to arrange
a post-season game with Notre Dame at
Indianapolis to decide the State cham
pionship for 1903. The claims of Wabash
are not taken seriously here, for, while
Wabash has a good secondary team. they
certainly do not class with Indiana or
Notre Dame at this time in the season.
The game with De Paw next Saturday
promises TO be a hard one, as De PAW
outweighe Indiana ten pounds to the man,
and Coach Berrien, of De Pauw, claims
wonderful Improvement for his team dur
ing the last few weeks.

COGGSHALL is in SHAPE
INDIANAPOLIS CENTER Is ANXIOUS
FOR SEASON TO OPEN.
McGilvray VIII BE Next to Arrive, and
Rest of Players VIII Report This
Week-Pol0 News.

Allie Coggshall, the w~ell-known center
of the Indianapolis polo team, arrived yes
terday and registered at the Imperial
Hotel. Mr.. Coggshal, was tired from his
long journey, but announced that he is in
the best of condition and anxious for the
opening of the season. McGilvray, the
speedy second rush, will arrive to-day from
Boston. and First Rush Pierce and Goal
Tender Bannon will arrive the latter part
of the week.
Coggshall stated that the Eastern League
was playing to poor crowds and said it was
his opinion hat the league would not finish
the season, as but one of the six teams in
the league was making expenses.
The uniforms to be worn by the local
team the coming season will reach here
Saturday and the players will have their
Drst practice in the new Auditorium rink
on Monday. All that remains to De COM
pleted on the new rink is the final work on
plastering the wainscoting. The arc lights
are already in place and the first game will
be played as scheduled against the Rich
mond team on Tuesday. Nov. II.
The reserved seats for the first game Of
the season will be placed on sale at HUI
der's drug store on Friday OF this week.
and all will doubtless be sold In a short
time, as the fans are anxious to witness
the first game of the 1903-1904 season.
About one-half of the season books have
been sold and from present indications all
will be gone before the opening night.
Coggshall and Captain Harry Way Will
take a five-mile run every morning the rest
of the week to get their wind in shape
Both have built new skates this summer
and 1t will take several days to break them
in after the first game Is played. These
two players may go to Anderson tomorrow
to practice in the Anderson rink.
Dicky Pierce, first rush, Is expected on
the same train with Goal Tender Bannon.
When these two players arrive the team
will be complete. If McGilvray and Kerri-
gan arrive to-day. as scheduled. The lat
ter will play the utility position the COM
ing season, and Is said to be a fast man.
Captain Way and Allie Coggshall were
the most popular players on the Indian
apolis team last season, and the fans are
jubilant over the fact that they have been
resigned by the local management. Pierce
and McGilvray are too well known In polo
dom to need any comment here. and Ker-
rigan Is certainly fast or he would not
nave been signed by Captain Way.

THE BANNoN CONTROVERSY.
Evidence Shows that the Player BE-
longs to Indianapolis.

Captain Way, of the Indianapolis polo
team, claims that he opened negotiations
with Goaltender Bannon last June to play
in indianapolis, and in September he re-
ceived a letter from Bannon saying that
he would sign a contract to play in Indi-
annapolis IL Way would send II. II this is
the true state of affairs. IL Is hard to see
where the Lafayette Central League club
has a Just claim TO Bannon's services.
1t is claimed that Bannon was on Lafay-
cites reserve list before Indianapolis
opened negotiations with the player. 1t is
known that Starkie was first signed TO tend
goal, and when II was learned that his eyes
were affected 1t was agreed that Bannon
should be signed.
The player is I'm dispute and Manager
Cohen, of the Indianapolis team, has issued
an ultimatum TO the effect that Bannon
shall play in Indianapolis or there will be
no polo here. IL Cohen is right I'm his con-
~tentions he has cause to feel that he Is not
Western polo officials, but should he be
mistaken and Bannon was reserved by La
fayette before being signed by Indianapolis.
IL would seem that the best thing 10 do
would be for the Indianapolis management
to negotiate with the Lafayette club. as IL
is known that Lafayette does not want the
player, because he demands too high a
quoted as saying that he Is holding out
for his rights because the Indianapolis
club has declared that II will have Bannon.
II Cohen shows he signed Bannon before
Lafayette reserved him, the Western
