SHARP FIGHT FOR PLACES
VARSITY BASEBALL TEAM WILL
NOT BE PICKED UNTIL AFTER
THE WINNIPEG SERIES.

The university baseball team will
not be picked until after the series
with Winnipeg is played. Coach Fer
guson will give all his men trial
during these games and viii not an
nounce his decision till the latter part
of the month.
The outdoor practice brought out
a large number Of new men, some Of
whom are, trying for places. ION the
team. tho the greater number are
playing merely for the sake of the
game. The regular diamond on North
.rOp field is In a SWampy condition
and cannot be used for some time. A
diamond has been marked out on the
football field and will be used for
practice and for the early games of
the schedule.
While the number of candidates for
most Of the positions makes it impos-
sible to predict the outcome, the con-
test for places on the battery and
for second base has narrowed down
to a few candidates.
Behind the bat Captain Leach and
Stewart have things to themselves and
will probably alternate at that posi-
ton.
Bond, Gleason, Groarty, Brown,
Neuman and Brigham are showing up

There is wealth of good material
for the other places on the team, but
so far no one has cinched a position
It is certain that Minnesota has
enough material for couple of teams
and that the nine which finishes the
season will be hard one to beat.
The season will open Friday with
a game with North Side on NorthroI
field. The Winnipeg series will begin
in st. Paul Tuesday.
The class and department teams are
arousing a great deal of interest, and

PLACKE is A GOLD BRICK
KID MCCOY KNOCKS THE DUTCH
GIANT OUT IN LESS THAN TWO
ROUNDS.
New York Sun Special Service.

=
Philadelphia, April 6.-Half the
things that Kid Mccoy did to Mynheer
Henri Jan Josef Placke can never be
told in print. The blows flew so thick
and fast that one might as well try
to count the singing snowf1akes in
a blizzard. And when the end merci-
fully came in the first minute Of the
second round, poor Mynheer Placke
was moved to tears. It was pathetic
spectacle.
The arena Of the Lenox Athletic
club is in a snug little building. The
air last night was so full of blue cigar
smoke that one could not distinguish
a face in the gallery only thirty feet
away. Into this close, dark atmos-
phere, that must have reminded him
of home, Van Dyck and Rembrandt,
Mynheer Henri Jan Josef strobe at
10 o'clock. He clambered thru the
ropes and stood in his corner swathed
in a bath robe, vast mountain OF a
man with a chubby-cheeked face, to
which a small, sharp-pointed Roman
nose lent; a momentary air Of deter
mination. Yank Kenney and Owen
Ziegler, his seconds, poured kind words
and good counsel into his red ears.
When you take hold of him, lean
I on him." they kept saying. 'Then the
referee will get between you and won't
let him hit you while you're back
ing off," -,

MILLERS AGAIN
DEFEAT ILLINOIS
THOMAS DOES CLEVER WORK IN
THE BOX.
Minneapolis Outfelder Plays SEN
sational Game - Demontreyille Has
Throws - Millers Fail to Make
Record With the Willow.
Special to The Journal.

Champaign, ILL.,, April 6.-Minne-
apolis won the third contest Of the
series with Illinois university, a score
of to 8. The game was closely con-
tested, but Illinois could not overcome
the lead of the millers. The special
feature Of the contest was the great
work of Watkins! outfelder, Sullivan,
Maloney, and Coulter. The last play
of the game was a remarkable catch
by Coulter, whose playing has been
great during the whole series. De-
montreville had an off day, and failed
to keep up his fine record.
Demontreville had sore arm and
made two wild throws, one of which
cost run, nevertheless, his work was
good. He covered considerable
ground and gives promise Of being a
very clever third baseman.
Thomas pitched for the first five
innings and allowed but one hit. He
used considerable speed and had the
college boys at his mercy at all
two of the three scores made off
him were due to two bad throws by
montreville. The last score, how
ever, was the result Of clean home
run by Rothgeb.
Manager Watkins men did not
managed to bunch their five hits to
good advantage. Demontreville was
shifted to the head of the batting
column because Of his speed on the
bases and his ability as run getter.
Demontreville, the first man up,
scored on an error, a sacrifice hit by
Sullivan, and Maloney's out. Errors
were responsible for Maloney's run in
the fourth, also those of Martin and
O'Leary in the fifth. An earned run
was scored by Sullivan in the seventh
on Maloneys timely hit. Errors and
two base hit gave Illinois two in the
seventh and Rothgeb knocked home
run in the ninth. Watkins takes
part Of his men to Springfield, ILL.,, for
two games Saturday and Sunday. The

SAYS BOOKIES HAVE CINCH
JOHN H. MADDEN THINKS 1T is
HOPELESS TO TRY TO BEAT
THE RACES NOWADAYS.

John E. Madden on his own admis-
sion has made $1,O0O,OOO out of the
race horse business, Of which not q
cent came from the betting ring. In
the paddock at Bennings, while dis
cussing, the trend of the affairs Of
the turf with r. w. Walden and other
supporters Of the metropolitan turf,
the great wizard of the blue grass
state made this assertion. Madden
further affirmed his belief in the ut
ter futility Of an endeavor to beat the
races. AS a result he purposes going
thru the season without betting as
much as a dollar. If he does wager
| 1t will be because away down in his
makeup there turks a passion to gam
ible, which Is stronger than his sense
OF good business principle.
Madden was quite a bettor last year,
as many, Of the NETS" will gladly
attest. Several Of the big bookmakers
beat Madden on the season, and they
ARE only too willing to boast of the
fact, and incidentally display as much
pride over the achievement as would
"a Sioux over the taking Of a rival
bridesmaids scalp, for Madden is a real
aboard the right end Of a horse race,
/ and to defeat him means the van
punishment of a man at his own game.
So think even the most adventurous
layers of odds.
Yet the spectacle Of the man who
is accredited with pre- eminence In the
racing industry coming to the fore
with the declaration that he is
100000 ahead of the game, and
THAT he did not make it betting is
afforded to-day. This is chilling fact
Ito the ardent race players at the very
outset Of the seasons campaign, but
1t is nevertheless true. Madden says
there Is too much of a percentage in
favor Of the bookmaker nowadays for
any man to beat the races. Last sea-
son Madden lost something like $780,
900, while he did not do better than
break even the year before.

Coy, except when the men clinched,
and the cool, calculating Mccoy dart

almost like lightning. He would feint
with his right and then drive his left

Before the first round ended Placke
was covered with blood from his neck
to his waist and both eyes were al
most closed. Just before the gong
sounded, announcing the close Of the
first round, Mccoy drove a vicious left
swing to the chin, dropping Placke
like q log. The gong saved him from
being knocked out. He was carried
to his corner, only to be knocked ou,

GAN DUCKS SMELL?r
Naturalists Say They Have No Need
Of the Sense.

It has been often asked whether or
not ducks can smell. Some hunters
cite from their experiences instances
that seem to show ducks can smell,
others that ducks cannot. Now the
naturalist would say that ducks, owing
to their habit, have no need to smell
and hence cannot. This rule is not
infallible, but generally holds good.
Any wild thing with such eyes as
ducks have do not need to smell. Ma
ture seems to have given birds dis
corning eye and animals a discerning
nose. A fox will look straight at a
man and not see him, even when only
few feet away, provided he does not
smell him or the man does not move.
A duck will not only see a man stand
ing perfectly still at a long distance,
regardless Of the wind, but will notice
any change in the landmarks Of their
haunts or feeding grounds.

President Pulliam of the National
league has issued his official interpre-
tation Of the playing rules for the
coming season.
Under rule 80, as amended, the
pitcher must take position facing the
batsman, and with both feet in front
Of the pitchers plate. BY keeping
the twirlers from placing one foot to
the side of the rubber, they will be
prevented from using the effective
''cross-fre" delivery, which, while it
puts the ball over the plate, involved
a delivery which began outside the
pitchers position.
Umpires must enforce the balk rule
to the letter. Hereafter, if pitcher
makes a motion Of any kind with his
hands. body, legs or feet, he must
follow it with a delivery Of the ball
to the bat or have a balk called on
him.
A trick play that heretofore was not
covered by any rule will this season
result disastrously to the perpetrator.
Should a coacher at third base start
for the plate to draw play from a
fielder, the runner entitled to that
base will be declared out for such
interference. Two coachers instead Of
one, as formerly, will be allowed.
