305 to 226.
Especial to The HeraId.)

Mt Pleasant, Dec 21.-The crack shots
of the Mt. Pleasant Gun club are dangling
the scalps of another set of victims at
their belts this morning, after hardly
fought battle yesterday afternoon. The
battle was a rabbit hunt between the
boys of the Gun club and a bunch OF fell
lows from SpringYille. 1t took place on
the flats north and east of this city, ana
was won easily by Mt. Pleasant, which
killed 905 of the long cared pests to 226
for Springville.
The hunt started at Birch creek. where
the visitors left the south-bOund pasSen-
ger train at 80, and went east and
south, circling over q course OF about tour
miles, reaching town about o'clock. Rab-
bits were not very numerous, the weather
being too cold and disagreeable. Some
good shooting was done by both sides. b.

MINOR LEAGUE
BRAND OF BALL
American Association Is Not
Looking for Fight, but 1t
Will Defend Itself.

Chicago. Dec. H.-John I. Taylor of the
Boston American league club. who left
this city last evening for a six weeks
visit in San Francisco. remarked before
starting that he had no objection to the
proposal to place an American associa-
ton team in this city.
James Callahan, who claims to be Ger
tain of obtaining an American association
franchise for Chicago, is touring the city,
accompanied by NJ. E. Cantillon, owner
of the Minneapolis club, examining de-
sirable sites for a ball park. Callahan
said last evening that as long as the
local National league intended to put up
fight against the invasion he would
have to do bit of fighting, too; and
therefore would need a park centrally
located. He favors the old National
league grounds at LOOMS and Harrison
streets. That would be carrying the
fight into National league territory, for
the LOOMS street grolt3ds are only a few
blocks from the present West Side park.
Callahan says ii is the hope of the as
ISOLATION people to come in here as
minor league and engaged in peaceful
competition, instead of provoking hcstil-
tiles As a minor league proposition the
invaders would be willing to put their
park far away from the big leagues but
if they are received as hostiles they saw
they will force the fighting as much as
their competitors do.

Ann Arbor, Mich. Dec. H.-When
Charles Baird. graduate manager of ath
Ietics of the University of Michigan, was
shown the attack on the purity of ath-
letics at the University of Michigan by
President David Jordan Of Leland Stan
ford university he said:
President Jordan has made the charges
several times and never brought forth
one iotd of proof to establish his claim
J. c. Beal regent-elect OF the univer-
sity. said that President JOrdan's charges
are mistaken and that he has allowed
someone to fill him with erroneous ideas
Secretary Wilfrfd Shaw OF the Mich
igan Alumni association declared that the
charges are entirely unjustified and says;
President Jordan's statement Is IN
dignified if he is correctly quoted. Dr.
Jordan is laboring under serious misap-
prehenSiOns."

RESTORATION OF
AMERICAN GAME
After Two Years of Rugby
Stanford May Join Berkeley
and Ask for Real Article.

Stanford University, Dec. 21.-Now
that the expected agitation to restore
the American game of football, as
played under the revised rules to its
former pinnacle of popularity on the
coast has been started by the students
of the University of California, the I'M
dergraduates OF Stanford are on tip
toes to ascertain what the outcome of
the movement will be. The cardinals
have refused to enter into the contro-
versy as a body in spite of an attempt
made by several of the Berkeley enthu-
siasts to have the question put to
vote before the students.
THE question has assumed many new
proportions since il was agitated one
year ago. Since the first Rugby sea-
son Stanford undergraduates have
learned to like the sport fully as much
as the former idol, and the task at
tempted by the blue and gold men is
apt for this reason to prove double
difficult.
The matter of coaches also will have
to be considered in deciding which
game shall be played. James F. Lena
gan, whose regime of five years here
has been such a source of worry to the
Berkeley men, will in all probability
retire, as his contract expires. 1t was
only upon the greatest amount of pres
sure last year that he was persuaded
to enter into the game again, even as
an advisory coach. 1t will fall upon
flanagan to name his successor. George
Presley, '07, who has acted as field
coach and right-hand man to flanagan
during the past season, has been spo-
ken of.
Should the old game be placed in ia
NOr IVOulH nTOh3 blV mean change
in the coaches. Presley has not had
experience as a coach of the old game
nor has he been a student of the re-
vised rules to any extent

TRIPLE FOOTBALL ALLIANCE
Yale, Harvard and Princeton Are
Said to Be in On Such Deal
for Next Year.

New York. Dec. IA triple football al
lance between Yale, Harvard and Prince
ton is the latest thing in the making Of
the schedule of games for next season
A deal OF this kind has been TumOred
for some time. but at the recent Harvard
Yale game representatives Of all three
colleges got together and talked the mat
ter over Yale already plays Harvard and
Princeton, SO it only remains for Prince
ton and Harvard TO schedule a gaze and
then the arrangement is completed.
According TO one who is on the inside,
the deal has been practically made. for
the formal papers will be signed soon,
when the dates OF the games will be fixed.
Princeton and Harvard have not played
each other since 1886.
1t was suggested at the conference that
the deal be made fOur-cOrnered, which
would take in Pennsylvania. This was
agreeable on the whole, but the prejudice
of some influential Princeton graduates
will have TO be overcome before the
scheme is put through.

GREAT BASEBALL
UMPIRE FACTORY
Rochester, N. Y, Bears Proud
Distinction of Rearing Men
Who Handle Indicator.

Rochester, n. Y, has the distinction
of being the greatest umpire-producing
city in the world. Other towns may be
famous for producing ball players,
either through the number of recruits
sent out or the quality of the few. but
when it comes to supplying the game
with umpires no other town can boast
of 50 great a list.
First and foremost in the list, of
course, is silk O'Loughlin, who really
has made Rochester famous. 1t was
because of his great success that many
of the youths of the New York state
town grew ambitious in the same di-
rection. 1T speaks well for the bravery
of the citizens of Rochester, for it takes
a brave man, indeed, to stick to that
end of the game.
Seventeen of the citizens of the town
have signed to umpire in various sec
tions of the country next season. The
following is a list of the men who nave
handled and expect to handle the lndI-

RULES COMMITTEE MEET
Forward Pass viii Be One of Prin-
cipal Features in Game Up
for Discussion.

New York, Dee. 21.-The meeting Of the
football rules committee in New York on
Dec. p will be interesting from the fact
that certain colleges who have been I'M
able up to this time to master the intri-
cacies of the forward pass will be on hand
to urge a change in the rules governing
this spectacular play. The great objection
to the play is based upon the penalties
arising from q failure TO hold or even to
catch 3 thrown ball.
The objections TO this play are summed
up thus by Athletic Manager Baird of
the University of Michigan, who SAYS:
1T has brought into the science of foot
ball an element of uncertainty Ere
Quently the result of a football game is
decided by chance. An inferior team,
driven to recklessness, may triumph over
a stronger and more deserving team
through the fortunate outcome of uncer-
tain playing. In conclusion it may be
stated that the forward pass ought TO be
abolished unless rules can be devised
which will permit the adoption Of q style
of play in which skill and science, rather
than chance. secure the reward of vic
tory" 1t is hardly probable, however,
that the forward pass viii be abolished.

Three of Salt Lakes contingent of BIZ
cycle riders who attended the recent six
Day race are home. They are W. q.
Samuelson n. c. Hopper and S. II. WI
cox. Wilcox is still suffering from a
broken finger received in the race. Hop
per is lame as the result of the Boston
fall, but SamuelSon Is as well as ever.
Mitten and Lawson have gone to Boston
to ride in the Boston twenty-four hory
race, Williams has gone to his old home
in Buffalo and has announced that he
will givt up cycle racing. Hardy Down
ing is still in New York. and may go to
Boston or may return to Salt Lake.
The boys have many stories to tell
about the big race and how it ali hap
pened They say Pat Powers treated them
all finely and paid them their contracts
in fun, regardless as TO whether they
finished or not.
The riders at the garden started a.
fund to buy monument for Urban Mac
donald, the well-known local rider, who
was killed at the Madison Square gar
den. Quite sum of money was collect
ed. Norman Hopper was appointed as
a western representative to collect a fund
from the local boys to add to THIS
amount. When the money is all received
marble monument will be bought and
placed over his grave. Pat Powers has
contributed quite a sum toward the sup
port of Macdonald's wife and child.
The boys brought home the word that
a SiX-day bicycle race is to be run in
Kansas City next month and that mum
Der of the local riders will enter this
race. Jack Prince is to manage the race
which will be ten hours each day.
In speaking of the New York race last
night, Samuelson said that ii was one
of the most successful ever pulled off in
the garden. The attendance was fully IS
large as any of the races in the past
Samuelson speaks in glowing terms of
Mitten, who was his partner. He says
the Davenport boy was one of the big
surprises Of the race. and that if he rides
again next season he wants Mitten for
a team mate.

Clarke mentions no names of the men
