LEO THE ROMAN WAS
ENRAGED AT DEFEAT

Carl Mattson, the clever Minneapolis wrestler,
added to his reputation considerably by the fast
bout put up last night with Leo Pardello, the
Italian champion No little credit is due Matt
son for the science he displayed and the way
he battled with the burly Italian for fifteen
minutes. 1t took Pardello fifteen minutes to
find he could not throw Mattson, and with this
newly acquired information it cost him just
$25. which Pardello forfeited.
Pardello at first took objection to the time,
claiming it was not quite fifteen minutes. Par
dello was enraged and when the men got in the
dressing rooms fist fight almost followed, but
the friends Of both separated them Par
dello resented the remarks of Mattson regarding
his ability as a wrestler and Pardel1o offered
to wager 500 against the $25 won last night by
BIatson that the Minneapolis boy could not stay
fifteen minutes again. E* -
Mattson laughed at him and said he would
double the time and give Pardello thirty min
utes in which to throw him. The two men
agreed to together again on Saturday
night.

MINOR Lacquer
BEAT Com MISSION
Manager Mike Kelley Went to
Court and Upset Baseball
Tribunal.

After treating the baseball world to num-
Der of more or less weird decisions, the national
commission has finally been rebuked in court.
1t remained for minor league manager to turn
the trick, says the New York World. By secur-
ing an Injunction against the commission NJ j.
Kelley, connected for the last five years with
the st. Paul American association club has
successfully rebeled against decision given by
basebalfs highest tribunal. ..asr..
The facts in the case have been given such
publicity as to make them we'll known to fans.
In resisting the ruling of the commission Kelley
claims he has uncovered a fake SALE OF the
first magnitude ~
Magnate George E. Lennon, who sold Kelley
TO the st. Louis browns this fall, turned against
his clever young manager last season after the
latter had won two successive pennants for st.
Paul. Kelley insists that the reason for the
estrangement is that Kelley collected from the
gate receipts some $4,000 back salary due him,
and that Lennon retalatede by disposing or
Kelley to st. Louis after the season was over. :
TKelley claims the sale was not bonatide for
two reasons. First he had contract with
St Paul and was therefore not subject to sale.
Furthermore, Kelley has offered to prove by
affidavits that the $1,000 Lennon received from
St. Louis purchase, money was Lemons OWL
money, paid back to him for the sake of making
the deal look sound r. ss,'.-..7-ss
When this matter was brought up before the
national commission Kelley thought he had al
the best of the facts. and did not suppose the
commission would uphold Lennon in a deal In
spired. as Kelley claims, by spite and persona
considerations.
and upset all calculations by finding against
Kelley, decreeing that he must go to st. Louis
and earn, as player perhaps $1,000 yeari!
when he might otherwise earn between S4,oot
and $1,000 as manager.
Kelley brought the matter before the courts
and was granted temporary injunction agains
the commission Judge Thompson of Cincinnati
upheld Kelley in every contention. leaving. LITTLE
doubt that the temporary injunction will h
made permanent when the case comes up 10
final hearing. 1t is in the power Of tn
national commission to end this litigation. The!
can grant Kelley a re-hearing at the next meet
ing on Jan. IS and find in his favor in accord
ance with the law.
Baseball men are asking the question: If tn
national commission is supposed to be a cour
of last resort and is overruled by a court o
POI law, then why not dispense with the nationa
commission altogether?
Kelley will not play with the st. Louis clu
under any circumstances. He has secured a
option on the Minneapolis club of the America
association, and will manage that team fror
the bench if the national commission does no
allow him to play. The st. Louis club doe
not need Keley's services, and his idea
they intended TO sell him back to the st. Pau
club as the season opened

Milwaukee, Jan. 3.-That the war between the
two factions in the American association is to

asked or given, is evidenced by the plan of the
Havenor- Lennon Tebeau combination, which now
holds the balance of power, to prevent W. II.
Watkins from disDosing of his holdings in the
Minneapolis baseball club.
The contention is made by both Watkins and
Kelley that the American association cannots
dictate to whom stock shall be sold. and this
is probably true, but these men have eyidently4
overlooked the fact that the Minneapolis fran
ehse iii the American association was granted
to W. H. Watkins, was the fve-year ex-{

In order that the new owners OF the Minne-ss

Grand Forks, N. D., Jan. 3.-There is move

ment that the colors are too weak and that they
cannot be made to stand out as other colors of
state universities. Many alumni favor the
change, and it was suggested several years ago.
However, there are large number who are
in the minority. Several combinations of col
ors have been suggested by the different students
as well as members of the faculty, but nothing
