Is hoped that he will smash the record for the
mile on half-mile track and put it well below

After this engagement the king of the PAGERS
will go to Elmra, N. Y, and probably Toronto
to lower the track records in those places, and
may appear at Chicago later in the season.
A full month will be put in at the Memphis
track this fall, and M. w. Savage is confident
that before Dams return to Minneapolis for the
winter he will have put the mile record at
about 1:54. The horse is in splendid condition
and barring accidents will make important

TALKING ABOUT
The BRUSH CASE
Football Authorities in the Dark
as to Action Of Wis
consin.

Football authorities at the university are
still In the dark to the rumored protesting
OF the decision of the arbitrator of the Big
Nine conference relative to the playing of
Percy Brush. They refuse to believe that
wisconsin has taken such action, and wait
Ing to hear from Professor Waldo before tax
ing any action.
1t appears to be the concensus of opinion
that II Wisconsin has made the move it has
been done, not with an idea of lettering the
standing of athletics In the conference col
leges, but to cripple the Minnesota team at
the beginning of the season. If such an ac-
t1on has been taken, and for such purpose,
1t Is an unsportsmanlike position for the
badgers to assume
In 1901 Wisconsin protested George Mueller
gopher star, and caused his loss to the team
thru the winning Of a So prize, at a picnic,
In fat mans race. Later, when Schriyer of
Wisconsin was DESTROYS of being Strengthened
behalf, and the Minnesota representative did
all in his power to bring about a decision de-
| clar1ng schriVer eligible. 1t was successful
Last June, when Dean F. S. Jones took the
Brush before the conference without the
player ever having been protested, Professor
| Schi1chter the Wisconsin representative sug-
gested that the whole affair be turned over
| to the arbitrator Professor Waldo of Purdue
for adjustment Minnesota's representative
agreed to this without hesitation. The stand
ing Of Brush, on account of his playing at
Manchester, was thoroly discussed at the meet
| Ing at the Chicago Beach hotel, and 1T is
1
Brush should play, with the exception of Pro-
| fessor Schltchter, and he asked that it be put
in the hands of the arbitrator.
| This action taken, and Professor Waldo
made exhaustive inquiry into the standing
of Manchester athletics at the time Brush was
a student. He found there was lack of Or
ganization in those years, and that while the
! football team played. several games, the train
ing was not regular or under any direction. In
| light of these facts Brush declared elig-
ible for three more years. Now comes the
rumors Of a protest from this decision by Wis
consin, and the local authorities are at a
loss to find motive for such a move.
| Dean Jones has always been a power in the
! conference and stickler for regularity on the
part, of athletes He has exhibited a broad
minded liberality in his treatment of the
athletic affairs of other universities. 1t is
generally believed locally that his influence,
exerted in behalf of Brush, will go far to
clear the situation in the minds of his as
sociates in the organization, and Minnesota will
not lose the player. 1t would be rank in
justice to Brush and to Minnesota to throw
the player out by reason of his athletic career
at Manchester Athletically the institution was
not of sufficient rank to disbar any of its
athletes from university play. There is a feel
ing that Wisconsin, if the protest has been
made, will think better Of the action and
withdraw it after a consideration Of all the
facts surrounding the incident.

there would be more. Captain Thorp does not
expect that the squad will increase much be-
fore the end of the week.
Some of the men out today looked rather
good. Especially was this true of Jack Ryan,
the big athletic clubman, who made his first
appearance about the quarters. He weighed
100 pounds when he stripped to put on his
toys, and apparently had little to lose in the
line of extra flesh. Captain Thorp weighs 223
pounds, but Will probably reduce rapidly
as he did last season. The Columbia captain
looked bronzed and healthy, and said that he
had only recently returned from trip across
the ocean to his birthplace in Ireland
Among the new men was Hurley, the bicycle
rider, who is a junior in Columbia. He has
never been out for the football team before.

0TTUMWA WINS OUT
In IOWA LEAGUE
FINAL PERCENTAGES.

which has been made more secure by defeat of
Fort Dodge in recent days, Ottumwa's team Of
the Iowa State league, led by Snapper" Ken

which closed yesterday. Last year 0ttuInwa was
easy winner, but this season, up to the last
three days Fort Dodge hot second. Then the
second placers fell down and Waterloo snatched
a game away from them. Boone beat them once
and Marshalltown won twice from them. All
this time Ottumwa steadily winning, and
the margin of a six-pont lead was broadened to
one Of twenty -five. Ottumwa on its merits,
by little faster play, little steadier hitting
and more consistent and better base running and
fielding.
Below Fort Dodge, but not in the same class
with the two leaders, the other teams finished,
Oskaloosa being in third. Within two days OF
the close Oskaloosa nosed Boone out of place
and finished ten points ahead of the latter.
Keokuk, early season team of much promise,
proved disappointment, finishing fifth. Mar
shalltown, another high salaried team, by e SUI

than ten points. Waterloo was forced back into
seventh by two beatings Marshalltown admins

the flag in eighth, a position it has held from
almost the opening of the season May 8.

Tho yesterdays beat down with ali the
herceness OF summer the grinding of cleated
shoes on the gridiron testified that fall was on
in earnest. III four high schools had their
squads out yesterday and the coaches worked
hard to drill the fat Off their men with the sun
as their ally
Central high with its university game less
than two weeks away, is the center Of activity
and interest at present. Under the stiff training
which Coach Morse is handing out to them the
red and blue warriors are fast rounding into
shape. The squad which numbered only seven
teen when the first practice was held last Thurs
day. has increased to thirty. Yesterday the
men were given their first scrimmage work.
With the other schools yesterday was the
opening day of the season. North, East and
South highs all started work under favorable
conditions.

tackle; Allan King, right half; JACK Oswald, left
guard; Henry Oswald, left tackle, and Smith,

guard and halfback; Leighton and La Paine.
Iberson, who played for two years on the Fergus

and Turner, another freshman, who tips the
scales at 1855, is expected to make good show

The line is strong except at the ends. Here
there are candidates of any known ability

at quarter. Among the candidates for this po-
sition are Wingate, Weir, Jennings and the
Younger Ertle.
Captain Marks and Coach Burgan both ex-
pressed themselves well pleased with the ma
terial at hand and confident of turning out a
team which will be a strong bidder for first
place. ..a ..ss s.... .a~
South Sides First Appearance.
South high sent about twenty-five men to its
new field at Twenty fourth street and Eighth
avenue S yesterday afternoon. Many Of the old
players failed to report for the opening practice,
but will probably show up in few days. The
new material, while unframed, Is excellent.
Manager Paul Solem is hard at work getting
out all the promising men Of the school and Sc
curing outfits for them. Charles Goltbloom has
undertaken the coaching end of the game and is
a professional coach
Coach Wyman and Captain Broderick sent the
call around Friday and in consequence there was
great gathering of the clans along University
avenue yesterday afternoon. East high has q
fair lot of seasoned material on hand and with
as good coach as Wyman should put out fast
ground gaining machine. Judging from the ap-
pearance of some Of the men after yesterday 8
grillng there was no delay in getting down to
work at the first practice.
