SHIFTS PLACE OF
M0N0LITH MILLS
Booth Afraid Nose Strathern
Might Use STRATEGY" on
His Big Center.
Special to The Journal.


Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 21-Booth and his corn
huskers have been up against the mud PROPOSE
ton this week, and consequence the foot
ball squad has been driven from the athletic field
to the grass plot at the front Of the university
campus. The practice, necessarily, has been in
the open, but Booth has had to take the chances
OF having his operations spied upon by the rep
resentative of rival tribe, for his braves are
trying the new signals and need every attention
that he can possibly give them.
The switching about to which the varsity line
up was subjected early in the week seems to
have been benefit to the team. Captain Bene-
diets form at right end is, If anything, an i'm
proVement over last year, while his transfer from
quarterback does not threaten any especial dan
ger as Booth Is more hopeful than ever that
either Reddick or Barwick will make good at
that position. Reddick is lightning fast in run
ming back punts, but Barwick puts more ginger
into giving the signals and keep the team going
have the call.
Big Mills evidently has done his last stunt at
center, Booth having shifted him to guard and
Borg, veteran at the position, will pass the
ball, with Weller as his substitute. It is be-
lieved that Booth did not to pit Mills
against Captain Strathern, the Minnesota center,
as the latter Is old at the game and might prove
too tricky for the bulky Nebraskan, who still
mas very much to learn. Borg has been against
some of the best centers in the west, and Booth
has confidence that he will hold his own. Barta
Mills, Shook and Speer are striving to land
the guard positions, and Booth has not as yet
made permanent choice For tackles, Cy Mason
and Cotton have the call, with Burns as the most
liSSly substitute. johnson and Benedict are
fixtures ats~the ends, and only the quarterback
problem remains to be solved to settle the back,
field proposition. The case Of Barwick, who now
bids fair to make good at quarter. is a bit
unique. week ago Barwick was badly stunned
during practice and for almost forty eight hours
was apparently out of his senses. DR.. Mayhem,
the eornhuskers' physicians, suspected that the
youngster was playing 'possum. and that his hurt
was not so serious it seemed. He tested his
theory by ordering Barwick to quit the game.
At that time Barwick only complained that his
memory was trihe confused, but his complete
| recovery was astonishing for it's rapidity.

New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, Oct. 21.-If the stockholders and
creditors of the Philadelphia National league
baseball club decide to accept a cash offer for
the franchise, the lease the clubs plant and
other assets, including contracts and reserve
lists Of the players, the famous quaker city
club will change owners within a week. If the
deal is made. the phillies will be owned and
operated by a syndicate of western ball men,
who intend to break into fast company by the
most direct route.
A syndicate consisting Of Messrs. James F.
and Thomas Burns of Colorado Springs, the pres
ent owners Of the Western league team there;
Alderman Charles Havenor owner of the Mil
waukee American association club, and Joe Can
tillon, manager of the last-named club, have
formed combination to purchase the Philadel-
phia club. There possibly three or four
other western men interested in this syndicate.
This attempt to gain control of the Philadelphia
club is being worked under cover. Burns and
Havenor started for the east yesterday after
noon in response to hurry calls from three Phila-
delph1a representatives. Cantillon started for
the east today. Ostensibly these men are going
east to attend the annual meeting of the Ma
t1onal Association Of Minor leagues which is to
convene at the Victoria hotel in New York on
Monday, and at which there is absolutely nc
business of Importance.

HIGHS STRUGGLE
ON NORTH FIELD
East and North Were Confident
Of Victory on a Slippery
Gridiron.
By kIt.

BY Kit.
East high is battling with North High at the
North field this afternoon. Whether the GRIM
son or the blue and white triumph, 1t Is a
struggle royal, and the winning colors will have
something to boast Of and hand down for future
school tradition. The barring Of the East Side
players was unfortunate, but it has given a
spirit Of fght-to the death that means more than
mere weight and experience.
"Who will be the winner" was the question
asked by the crowd that poured onto the field
hour before the game to cheer their favorite
teams. The contest alone tells the story, but
paper the North high boys look the stronger.
Their team has played together thru the year
without noticeable changes, while East high
has been struggling with green team. OF last
years North high team, Norris, Marks, Ertl J.
Oswald, Fl. Oswald, Haymaker and Hoeffner are
in this years lineup. This means veteran
team, but veteran teams do not Of necessity
mean victory.
The predictions Of fair weather for the contest
are verified, but the field is slippery and soaked
with last nights heavy rain. Just what differ.

Grinnell, Iowa, Oct. 21.-Coach Fisher is
working his men hard in preparation for the
GrinDell-Ainnesota game tomorrow. The show
ing which Ames made, and the fact that "Jack'
Watson was Grinnells trainer last year, will
make every man on the team anxious to do his
very best, so that fair comparisons may be
made Of the relative strength of Ames and
Grinnell.

football players, is coaching the Scrubs who are
doubly eager to do good work in order that they
may take part in the game with Eldora reform
school tomorrow. .~~-@- -
The varsity men in, excellent physical con-
dition, but do not play as snappy ball as Is de-
sired. Rains have made practice heavy, but
cooler weather will be help in invigorating the
men. "Doggie" Noble. who proved his mettle
in the game with Cornell, will probably play
quarter. Captain Auracher will take his old pc.
sition as tackle. shifflett, who as right tackle
was one Of Grinnells mainstays and best ground
gamers in the Cornell college game, has been
suspended for breach of training rules. but may
regain his old place before the final game,
Muyskens, as center, has been playing in
splendid form this week. Last nights practice
indicated that Grinnel will be able to put up a
good, stiff opposition to Minnesota. -
