Special to Times-Repubican.
Iowa City, Nov. 4.-The athletic
board of control has been considering
the proposition of the Cedar Rapids
Commercial Club to have the Mime
sota-Iowa Thanksgiving day game
transferred from Davenport to that
place. They have offered to provide
suitable grounds and to build all nee
essary stands to accommodate the
large crowds that will attend the
game Coach Chalmers was in Dav-
export yesterday to inspect the grounds
that would be used should the game be
played at that point. He reported that
while they could be used they would
hardly be suitable since they contain
an old ball field. where the sod has
been scraped from the ground. The
students of the university look with
favor on the proposition to char~e the
place of holding the game to Cedar
Rapids, since the railroad fare over the
electric line between these two points
would be materially less than the ex-
cursion rate from Iowa City to Daven-
port over the Rock Island. The board
of control is unable to chance the play
ing Mace to Cedar Ranids however,
without consulting the Minnesota man
q gement Nothing has been definitely
settled and the negotiations are still
pending.
