NO ACTION ON RECORD
KETCHAM CONSIDERS THE POST
PONEMENT AS A VICTORY.
Friends Of Owner Will Have Plenty
of Time Before the Next Meeting
to Present Evidence.

CHICAGO, Dec. 3.-The board Of appeals
of the American Trotting Association ad-
journed to-day without taking action on
the record made by Cresceus at Wichita,
Kan, in October.
The action of the trotting organization In
postponing the case until the next annual
meeting was regarded by George H. Ketch-
am, the owner of Cresceus, as practical
victory.
The fact that the charges against
Cresceus were not proven to the satisfac-
ton of the racing officials and that the
friends of Ketcham will have plenty Of
time before the next meeting to present
their evidence is regarded as favorable
sign by Ketcham. The case now hinges
on technicality, and 1t is said that If 1t
be proved that the Monday meeting
at the Wichita track was properly adver-
tised there will be nothing to prevent the
record made by Cresceus being declared
official.
The following persons, who were disquali-
fed for various reasons, were reinstated by
the board: Henry Manwaring, Davenport,
Ia; ]. II. Dwight, Des Moines. Ia; Jacob
Emmett, Mars, Pa; A. w. Kenny, Chicago.

CAPTAIN CLARK MAY DECIDE
TO ENTER EARLHAM.
Brewer Will Soon Give n Reply to the
Proposition to Coach Shortridge
Team Next Year.

HezIep Clark, who captained the Short
ridge team this fall. said yesterday that he
may decide to enter Earlham College next
year instead of Indiana University. Should
Clark go TO Earlham the Quakers would
have a good chance of again winning the
championship of the secondary colleges
next year.
Clark said that Mr.. Brewer will give a
definite answer to the Shortridge Athletic
Association within two weeks regarding a
proposition to coach Shortrfdge again next
season. No formal offer has been SUBJ
mtted, but IL Mr.. Brewer decides he will
coach again next fall the athletic associa-
ton will make a formal proposition.
The credit OF winning the championship
this year is largely due 10 the work Of
Coach Brewer. Since the final game was
played members OF the Shortridge team
tell many stories of the way Brewer
handled the players and coached them into
shape for big games. Near the close OF the
season there was little misunderstanding
between Mckinney and two Of the men I'm
the line. Mckinney did not give any sig
nails for the two men in question to enter
into offensive plays and Coach Brewer d.
rected Captain Clark TO call signals In all
practice games just prior 10 the Thanks
giving game: In the big game Mckinney
shown a dispotion TO ignore the two men,
Captain Clark would have taken the run
ming of the team in hand. However, Nc
Kinney worked the two men as hard as
other players and what little difference ex-
listed has been wiped out.
There has been talk of placing McKin-
ney at half back next year and Holloway
at quarter, but those interested In the
team say that Mckinney should be
tanned at quarter because OF the record he
made this season In running the team.

and Spohr were very swift and the inter-
ference of the second team was broken
through time after time. Captain Bohn-
stadt scored twelve goals from field and
will be a tower of strength for the South
Side team if he displays the speed later Ia
the season which he showed yesterday.
The second team did not score In the nrst
half. In the second half il succeeded in get
ting two baskets owing to the fact that
the first team players slackened their pace
in the last few minutes of play. The lads
all worked with will and dash and will be
dangerous contenders for the championship
of the City League.
Ayers has been ruled out of practice by
Physical Director JONES' of the Y. NJ. &. A.,

he accidentally shattered one of the electric

as rank carelessness and ruled Ayres from
