the game this afternoon with the Shattuck team.

President Northrop of the University Of Min

and from which T he Journal pu blished
an extract, was read by President Northfop with
great deal of interest.
+ While President Northrop agrees with the
writer of the rtcle that there is great room for
Improvement and that the professional spirit is
too prevalent in American university athletics

UGLY CHARGES

Desertion of Maxwell and Wight
man from Stages Camp
Causes a Stir.

Chicago Sept 2s.-1ndignation was expressed
by western collegians when it was learned that
two OF the University of Chicago football ljayers
mad been lifted by an eastern institution.
The desertton of Robert Maxwell Sunday night
has brought to light notorious piece Of Tar
gaining on the part Of swarthmore college Or
some OF its friends. 1t now appears that not
only is big" Maxwell at Swarthmore, but Sher-
bourne Wightman as we'll. -
About week ago Coach Stage received word
from Wtghtman saying that he had 5een advised
by his father to quit the University o. Chicago
and to take up his engineering work, which he
had desired to pursue. He went ON to say thst
he could not get this work at the University Ct
Chicago and would enter Case school uf tachnol-
ogy, which is located in Cleveland, his home
town.
He explained further that he short Of
funds and found 1t rather hard to keep up ex-
penses at Chicago. No more was h,u;d from
Wightman until last Thursday, when "Blg'
Maxwell exhibited telegram from swarthmore
college signed by Wightman. This ,"aa shown
to member of the football team at the univer-
s1ty who is willing to make charges against the
professional tactics uncovered by he teles:am. :
The message was addressed to- Maxwell and
urged him to come to Swarthmore at once. It
! went on to say that transportation would be
| furnished to Swarthmore and that after looking
over the institution if the Chicago guard did
not like the place he would be given transporta-
| ton back to Chicago : IT,.
| 1t added that transportation would not be all
that would be handed out, but that there would
be a ''good thing" in it for Maxwell it he de-
cided t. stay.
| Maxwell showed the message to a member Of
| the maroon team and asked what he should do
| about IT.. He was advised to pay no attention
| to 1t. Maxwell is reported to have said he
a. did M not propose to co. but that he would like
| at the University of Chicago. He said that
he did not have enough money to keep him In
good form at the Midway institution, and that
II he could go where spending money easy
he would be tempted to go. .-:'-'" -: ":s~
| Stage played Maxwell at tackle in the Law-
renee game and this did not please the big fellow
bit: He told Coach Stage when he returned
! this fall that he did not want to be played
at tackle. He said that he had been tried at
tackle last year and failed to make good and
was roasted for 1t, and that he thought that
guard was his position and wanted to stay
there. Stage sent him in the Lawrence game
at tackle. and. Maxwell sore.
After that game Maxwell Is said to have left
the campus with SwaNthmore agent. who had
been about the university all last week, but
returned and packed his grip and prepared for
the eastern trip. 1t is supposed that he is in
the Quaker institution by this time.
Coach Stage not slow in condemning the
action of Maxwell. He charges Maxwell with
being disoyal and said that he did not are for
such material on his team. a

High school football interest is conferred today
in the game North Side is putting up against st.
Thomas. 1t is the first real test of the season,
a1tho it is North's second game: Last year the
high school boys had the better of 1t with the
collegians, but this year st. Thomas, coached by
est teams in its history, and are out to wipe
past defeats off the slate. The game was closely
watched by the other high school teams, who
will take their turn with st. Thomas as the
season advances. tEtc> :.
In preparation for the game Coach George Eye
gave the North boys light practice yesterday.
There was no scrimmage, altho there was some
practice for the linemen in breaking thru. Big
Jack Marks was not in the signal practice, but
is in the game today. ---. ~
North Side is again ngratulating itself in
having closed field. At the other schools team
practice is handicapped by crowding on the
field by spectators. 1t seems impossible to keep
them off, and a good share Of the coaches time
is taken up in preserving room enough for the
