MANY C0MEBACKS
FOR THE BADGERS

Madison Wis, Aug. 1S-Manager Downer
and Captain Vanderboom have completed the list
Of football candidates who will be invited to
participate in the early fall practice at Mari
nette, beginning Monday, Sept. a. There are
forty in all ----s'...-...

Three. of the twelve new men played on the
19O2 badger eleven. Lilljequst and Marsh, both
heavy yet speedy players had positions in the
back field of that eleven, but in the succeeding
years avoided all practice. Wrabetz and Schneid-
er. who alternated last year at right half, have
been invited to return, and as Captain P. Van
derboom will keep his old position at left half,
no less than four good players will be certain
to try for the one position Marsh may be
given chance at quarter. The third member

Is T. h. Jones. Jones, who weighs about 100
ponads. Dla!eis emu THAT year. but it Is prop
able that he will be tried at tackle.
Young Jones, who played quarter on the
team last year, will not be back this fall.
No reason is assigned for his failure to re-
turs to the varsity, but it is generally be-
l1eVed that the training table controversy is
responsible. Melzner and Kuehmstead, both ex-
pel1enced men, will be back, however and as
Marsh may be tried also in the position there
WILL be no lack of material. ~

GETTING AFTER
SUMMER GAMES
Conference Authorities Said to
Have Gathered Evidence
Against Athletes.

Chicago. Aug. 1s.-According to report go
ing the rounds Of the conference colleges, there
are to be surprised baseball colegtans next
spring. 1t is understood that members Of the
conference college faculty committee have been
gathering data this summer relative to the
summer baseball situation and have obtained
enough evidence to put about half Of the col
lege baseball players in the professional class.
Under the new summer baseball rule collie
CLANS are not permitted to play summer base
ball. Some colleges have gone to the extent
to grant their baseball players permission to
play on the amateur teams of their home towns,
but further than this privileges have been
extended. Notwithstanding the new rule, it is
said that members Of nearly every college
team in the conference have been busy all
summer playing semiprofessional ball.
Tho committee is said to have gathered an
nent athletes will be called before the commit
tee at the Thanksgiving meeting 1t is limited
that the blow will probably strike hardest
against the Wisconsin players, while the Uni
yersity of Chicago players claim to be abso-
lutely guiltless. .-2s
The Information has it that Pitcher Lewis of
Wisconsin Joined a league team in northern
Michigan before the college season was really
closed and that Person accepted position on
q western team, while Hoelz has been earning
a little money in the business at Racine.
Several Purdue players are said to be guilty
Of gross attractions of this rule< and not less
than two members of the Michigan team have
found it profitable to do little baseball in
the summer.
Down at Indiana and Illinois several players
are under surveillance, but yet no direct evil
dence has been obtained.
Coach Stage was questioned about the situa-
ton at the University of Chicago and declared
that not one Of the maroons is playing summer
baseball this year. In fact, the 'Old Man. of
the Midway said that he had had no summer
baseball players for several years. A few I'M
kind fans might add that the maroons Of the
last few years would have had a hard time
getting positions in the Podunk league according
to the class of bail they displayed in the col
lege games. l.E

Another startling incident furnished excite

that he would practice up pitching and put Cy

From press accounts Toledo is the
latest to join the ranks Of the rowdy

there yesterday and treated to dose
of over-mature eggs. The trouble
started with the firing Of Grille off the

The Pathfinder beat the Barracuda
at Oshkosh yesterday, whereupon the
st. Paul sailors filed a protest, after
taking licking, about an alleged foul

at the start and beaten decisively, the
action of the judges cannot alter the

RUB COMES TODAY
FOR CANADA'S CUP
Iroquois and Temeraire Each
Have Two Races to Their
Credit.

Charlotte, n. z, Aug. 1s-The American
yacht Iroquois yesterdays race with the
Canadian challenger, Temeraire, in the Canadian
cup SERIES Each boat has now won two races
and 1t will be necessary to sail another race
today to decide who shall be the custodian Of
the cup
The yachts started in the fourth race Of the
series for the Canada cup, crossing the line as
follows: Iroauois, 1:O0:22; Temerare,
II O0:3S, with the Temeraire to the windward.
Five minutes after the start the Iroquois,
pointing high, slowly drew ahead of the chal.
Ienger, and at 1f!23 was about a sixth OF a
mile to windward. There not enough wind
to force the boats in fast sailing lines.
The Iroquois showed the same superiority over
the Fife boat in light air as her rival had
shown over her in the heavy weather races Of
Monday and Tuesday.
A breeze of about four or i've knots strength
sprang up early in the second round, and in it
Iroquois picked up well, taking the windward
berth and steadily improving her position. She
turned the outer mark apparently a quarter
Of mile in the lead Iroquois for a while
seemed to gain well on the run to the finish
line, but the challenger, which meanwhile had
worked further to windward, able by
adroit seamanship to drop down toward the
defender every little while and get a better
fill for every spinnaker. Iroquois, however, had
too much Of lead and crossed the finish line
a winner by four minutes The yachts finished
as follows: Official, Iroquois, 2:34:14; Temer-
aire, 2:3S:14.

ON THE MARKET
Chicago Syndicate Develops Sore
Feet Over the Upton
Races.
New York Sun Special Service.

Chicago, Aug. 18.-The Quien Sabe will be
sold at public auction at the Columbia Yacht
clubs house on Monday evening at 8 O'Clock
This action was decided upon at meeting Of
the owners yesterday. While it was intended
to sell the boat at the end of the yachting sea-
son, it is believed that the action was hurried
by the handling that the boat received in the
Upton cup races Members of the syndicate
that owned the boat displeased at the
way Commodore Fred Price sailed the boat in
the recent races. ~ 81
Price was the head Of the syndicate, of which
William f. H. Osborne, H. T. Mills and F. u
Herman were also members The Quien Sabe
was built by this group for the express pur-
pose of lifting the Upton cup, and Price was
given charge of her. .ls 60.
Members Of the yacht club say that the boat
was not fitted up well for the races; that she
did not carry the proper amount Of SAIL and
that the crew did not have enough practice
with the boat. After the first race it was
decided BY the owner that Herman should be
placed In command of the Quien Sabe. AS a
result she was better handled and gave a good
account of herself in the other two races of the
series. -
Experts then commenced to criticise Prices
handling of the boat, and they also said that
they, believed the Quien Sabe to be faster than
the Ste. Claire If she was given the maximum
amount OF sail and received proper handling.
It. was intended to enter the Quien Sabe in
otner races later in the season, but the owners
did not care to take any more chances with
ner and decided that the best way out Of the
present difficulty was to sell the boat.

=. WITH IRON TIRES

New York, Aug. 1S.-The kneu Of the pneu-
matte tire has been sounded as far as motor
are concerned. An automobile trip from
this city to Stamford in a machine with iron
tires Is the cause. The made in
binding rainstorm and made without discomfort
to the passengers. While the run took three
hours, tt developed the fact that the new tire
has easier running qualities than the old pneu-
matte tire. - -'..t -. 49,,
There was more than the iron tire to marvel
at. 1t was but part Of a wheel so revolutionary
in character as to cause establishment among
automobilfsts and others who saw it, And that
Wheel different from any other wheel seen at
any time, in itself afforded the resiliency Of
the pneumatic-shod article without the liability
Of the latter to puncture or burst.
The wheel is somewhat cumbersome In ap-
pearance. The principle Of pneumatic tube is
there. tho removed from the dangers of con-
tact with the ground. The diameter of the wheel
is thirty inches. and midway between the hub
and outer rim are two interior rims, between
which rests three-inch pneumatic tube. .
The upper rim is suspended from the hub by
iron spokes, and the lower has similar con
nections with the inner rim. The construction
OF steel and bronze and a three-p point suspen-
sion gives strength and rigidity, while shocks
and jolts are absorbed by the pneumatic tube.

New York, Aug. 1s.-Word has been received
from London that the Automobile club of Great
Britain and Ireland has decided not to challenge
for the Bennett cup in 1906. This tends to In
crease the belief that the Bennett race Will be
abandoned. The French club, holder of the cup,
intimated an intention to return the trophy to
its donor unless there was revival of interest
among the manufacturers.
1t is thought among well-posted automobiles
that America will not enter team next year.
