Wisconsin Refuses to Repeat Its
Mistake of This Seasons
Schedule.
Will Have but Three Hard Games
With Minnesota, Michigan
and Chicago.

Madison, Wis.,, Dec. 2.--Northwest-
from the Wisconsin football schedule.
The badgers would prefer to leave off
playing with the gophers, but the ex-
1StenCe of q contract which calls for
two more of the annual Minnesota
Wisconsin contests precludes the pos
sibility of agreement to the proposal
submitted by Michigan. Then, too,
Wisconsin hopes to get even with Min
nesota for the past two successive de-
feats before severing relations.
The Wisconsin schedule was what
brought disaster to the badgers, sac-
cording to Assistant Coach Mccarthy.
If Northwestern had not been on the
have found the badgers able to with
stand the rushes of the heavy Mime
sofa line during the last half as well
as in the first thirty-fve minutes. With
this in mind and in contemplation Of
the existence of contracts to play
Minnesota, Michigan and Chicago,
Northwestern will not be taken on
again next year.
The result Of the pleasantness
heaped upon the Wisconsin team at
Ann Arbor after the defeat by Michi-
gan this year has been to have the
Wisconsin team declare that Michi-
san's claim to the championship is
DeLLefs -Lndl that OF MlnnSSOId. Il his
is Notwithstanding the fact that the
score of Minnesota over Wisconsin
was greater than that Of Michigan,
that the advantages of place and
crowd were with Michigan and that
the Minnesota game was at the end
of the season, taking always some
precedence in championship calcula-
tions over early season contests.
Unless Joe Fogg, the plucky quar-
ter-back and field general Of the Wis
consin football team for the past three
seasons, agrees to return to- the game
next fall and allow the team to elect
him as the captain Friday night, there
will be a deal of lively politics in
jected into the campaign for the honor
Of leading the badger eleven next fall.
Vanderboom, the star left halfback;
Bush,right end and punter of the latter
part Of the season; Bertke. the clever
left guard, and Findley, whose playing
at left tackle has been one of the
gratifying features Of the season-all
are equally entitled, so far as prece-
dent is concerned, to the honor of
captain. Each of these four is COM
monty understood among the student
body as seeking the place.
If Fogg will forego the positions
that are said to await his graduation
next June, and will come back to
school, he is assured of the election.

which makes him popular with the
team, and a good head, which never
deserts him in a crisis of the game,
and he makes a candidate who ap-
peals to the eighteen men as prob
ably no other does.
There will be comparatively little
politics or wire pulling in the election
of the captain, however. Each one of
the candidates is willing to stand on
his own merits, and while conservative
observers are inclined to think that the
choice will lie between Irsfe1d,
Strathern and Thorpe, in the order
named, Irsfield is generally picked as
the winner.
OF the eighteen men honored with
I'M 81 at the meeting of the university
athletic board OF control yesterday, all
but O'Brien played on two champion
ship games Of the season and he was
entitled to the honor for the brilliant
work done before receiving the in
jury which put him out of the game
for the rest Of the season. Big Dan
Smith never saw a. gridiron before this
his freshman year. The large number
Of MS given this year is testimony
to the richness of material with which
Minnesota has been blessed during the
season.
The eighteen honored ones are:
Captain Edward Rogers, left end;

Meat Dealers Are Giving Some Away,
Howeyer-Many Deer Coming In.
!. Deputy Game Warden j. G. Will
liarns says that, so far as he has been
able to discover. none Of the meat
markets has been selling venison to
customers, a1tho fully: 1000 deer were
shipped into the twin cities in the
season just closed. A personal inves-
tigation Of the reports that deer meat
was being regularly, offered for sale in
Minneapolis has led the deputy to the
conclusion that in certain cases meat
dealers have been presented with por-
tions of deer which they have cut up
for customers, and that these portions
have been given away as a means of
drawing trade.
Only about twenty-five deer have
been seized by Warden Williams in
Minneapolis railroad stations, and
these seizures were occasioned by the
carelessness- Of shippers, who forgot
to affix their tags. Several hundred
more deer are expected from the woods
within the next three days.
