enough out of doctoring and wrestling

Rollers life story is that of the

as his possibilities were recognized by
the college coach he found congenlal
employment. He was as studlous as
he was active in training. He came
into prominence early in his freshman
year, and before the season ended was
a college hero. The following year

YOST TO COACH VARSITY
TEAM TWO YEARS MORE
furry Up" and U. Of M. Facul-
ty Sign Agreement at a
Board Meeting.
STUDENTS ARE ENTHUSIASTIC

Ann Arbor, Mich. Dec. 3.-Fielding
II. Yost, who has coached the football
teams of the University OF Michigan
for the last nine years. has signed
contract to teach football to the
young men of Michigan for at least
two years more.
At the board of control meeting
two year contract with the "hurry-up"
man was ratified, both the coach and
the university accepting the terms.
Just what salary Yost will receive nei-
ther party cares to say.
There is great rejoicing among the
students over the decision. Since the
two brilliant victories over Pennsyl-
vania and Minnesota the coach has
been the most popular man connected
with the university. The assurance
that he will be on hand next fall to
work with the fine material In sight
leads Michiganders to believe that
more fat years are in sight with con-
siderable faster makeup.
To some extent faculty members who
were jealous of the attention attracted
by Yost and of the fat salary he re-
celved have been trying to undermine
him, but the wave of enthusiasm
caused by the victories this year swept
all opposition before il.
The ratification of the Yost contract
was the most important business tran
sacted by the board Tuesday night. The
matter of Michigan's return to the.
conference was not taken up at all.
The board expressed disapproval of
the proposed trip of the football team
To California for game on New
Years day, giving the reason that such
a jaunt would entail absence from
college that the board did not care
to sanction. This means that there
will be nothing doing in the travel line
1t was decided that the eastern trip
OF the baseball team next spring was
all right and the board gave its Of
fetal sanction. This will insure Mich
igan an excellent schedule i'm 1910.

cision that William Murray would not
manage the Phillies next season and
! the announcement that the plant at
Broad and Huntingdon streets would
be enlarged to accommodate 10000 per-
sons We're the two most important de-
velopments on the NTH day OF Hor-
ace Fogers administration as the presl-
dent of the local National league base

Murray's successor will be John
Killing or Fred Lake. Architects will

ture of many thousand dollars.

cause il wants to start next seasons

II is President Fogers policy to
rise or fall by his own Judgment and
not to shoulder any blame. in case OF
nom success. on the ownership OF the
team. That is the reason he wants
to begin his first years campaign with
manager of his own selection.
King will be the man providing the
national commission lifts the three
year suspension against him. The
failure of this body TO reinstate him
is the only hitch that could keep
Killing from the Phillies.
1t is presumed that the new own
ers will compromise with Mr.. Muir
ray and satisfy him on all points be-
fore his leave taking. A man close
to the old owners of the club declar-
ed that the fact that Manager Murray
sent Outflelder Clement to Jersey City
last year without the sanction of the
board Of directors offers the wedge
whereby his contract may be shatter-
ed. II is also said that this instance
was related to the new owners. but
President Fogel declined to talk on
this subject.

Fur Expected to Fly at National
League Session Dec. is.

| New York. Dec. "a meeting Of
magnates of the National league has
always been fearsome affair." but the
one that is scheduled to be held here
on Dec. Is will probably be free for
all fight. without even barring the
strange hold. Some of the important
matters to be settled are to be:
The election of a president.
The effort of Charles w. Murphy and
John T. Brush to make the National
league syndicate" by taking over
the Philadelphia club.
| The effort to depose Billy Murray as
manager of the Quakers.
The efforts of Gerry Hermann of
Cincinnati to cut short the schedule
OF the National league and provide for
series of interleague games at the
conclusion of the National league and
American league playing season.
The fight on the election of presi-
dent, of course, is expected to prove
the biggest bone of contention. The
belief is growing. however, that Garry
Hermann will put one over on the
other magnates and force the re-elec-
ton Of President Heydler. who succeed
Harry Pulliam, though Murphy and
Brush are sure to continue their fight
against him.
1t is known that several of the mag
mates will endeavor to have Murphy
and Brush dispose of their holdings in
the Philadelphia team, believing the
entire league will suffer from this
"syndcating" of interests. Horace
Fogel. the new president of the Phi
adelphia club. is known to be oppos
ed to the further reign of Murray
but as Murray has contract, the eff
forts to dislodge him may prove a
bigger problem than the Murphy
Brush Fogel combination can sur
mount.
