Minnesota athletes are gaining recognition in
the east. The latest notice taken Of the gophers
is the selection Of Hugh Leach, the varsity bas-
ketbal1 star of several seasons as a member OF
the collegiate basketball rules committee, which
is to meet in Philadelphia in few weeks to for
mulate the rules Of play for the coming season.
The honor means more than local represen-
tation as Leach is asked to attend and partici-
pate not only as Minnesota student but as
representative Of the western universities. The
request and appointment of Leach was made this
week by Ralph Morgan, secretary Of the collie
giates basketball rules committee. ...
Leach is out of the city at present, and it is
not known whether he will be able to accept the
position. His selection seems to be due to the
prominence Minnesota has gained in basket
ball affairs in the west and east. Year before
last Minnesota swept the west and made tri-
umphal journey thru the east. Last year the
gophers were not quite so fortunate, sharing the
championship with the University of Chicago,
and getting an even break on their annual tour
of the eastern cities. ,.=. -... -..-s. T.. 90. =,

BOARD OF CONTROL
MEETS THIS WEEK
Vice President r. j. McRae Will
Summon Varsity Athletic
Governors to Meeting.

The first official notice of the approach of the
football season at the University Of Minnesota
will be taken the latter part of this week when
Vice President r. ]. McRae of the board of
control will summon that body to meeting.
This meeting is not for the purpose of plan
ming for the Waconia trip, the general plan
of that pilgrimage was arranged at the last
meeting in the spring. The meeting Of Friday
or Saturday will be in the nature of cleanup
Of all outstanding obligations and business and
clearing of decks for the football season Of
1905. President Strathern is not expected to
attend the meeting this week, but McRae, Linde,
Gleason, Schouten, Haney and Professors Jones
and Wesbrook of the faculty will comprise a
quorum to transact such business may be
brought up.
The outlook for 1905 will probably be dis
cussed in an informal way, altho little is known
of the available material who will show up
for the football work. The gossip Of the past
few weeks as to the possible makeup of the
team has been based entirely upon conjecture, as
those in control say that it is too early to have
any definite idea Of who or who will not appear
and try for places on the team. After the meet
ing of the board those in charge of affairs will
probably begin to look the situation, but
not until after the candidates show up at Waco
