PEORIA COMING /?
Rumor Says Distillery Team Has
Disbanded and Will Not
Finish Season.
PARENTS RAISE OBJECTIONS
School Authorities, State, However,
That Game Will Be Played Ac-
cording to Schedule.

A report was circulated here yester-
DAY TO the effect that the Peoria high
school football team had disbanded
for the year and that it would not
nnlsh the season by playing the
Thanksgiving day contest with Rock
Island.
This would have left Rock Island
without an opponent for turkey day,
and Manager John Streckfus of the
high school team was considerably
worried. He got into communication
with the authorities at Peoria at once
and learned that while the team had
practically disbanded, there was little
doubt but that it could be held 70
gether long enough to finish the
season.
1t seems that parents of several of
the players who make up the team
have raised objections to their sons
playing, but the principal expects 10
be able to overcome these objections,
in which case the contest will take
place. At any rate, there will be a
game ON turkey day and one that will
be well worth seeing, as. if Peoria
fails, another team is already in line
to fill the engagement.
Second Team to Play.
Saturday is an off day for the regu-
lars, and the second team men will
hold down the boards at Exposition
park in their first game of the year.
The boys have scheduled a contest
with the second team from ST. Am
brose college, Davenport, and fast
contest is locked for. The second
team of the high school has some very
good players and there are times
when it makes the varsity hustle 70
make an impression upon it. The col
legians, on the other hand, have
strong team also, and it is suspected
q large number of their first team men
will play on the second team In this
contest.
The game will commence ct the
usual time and there will be no ad-
mission charged.

His visit to France was made ex-

Witnessing Bleriot's flight across the

the monoplane.
Three Kinds of Races Together.
Mr.. Wanamaker said in speaking Of
his flying machine:
81 am convinced that the flying ma
chine will be one of the most interest
ing participants in sporting events in
America during the next year. and l
am exceedingly interested in the plan
to build an aviation course on the
Hackensack meadows near New York.
AS l understand the plans, there is to
be an extensive flying area in combi-

and an artificial lake for motorboat

NO JOINT SESSION
Magnates of Central Associa-
ton Oppose Meeting With
Three Eye Directors.
FOUR CLUBS IN PROTEST
Seem to Believe There Is a Purpose
to Copp Best Cities in Their
Organization.

1t begins to look as though there
will be no. joint session of the directoy3
of the Three-Eye and the Central as
ISOLATION in Chicago next week, as the
magnates in the latter league are dis
posed to object to the proposition. The
joint meeting was the suggestion OF
President NJ II. Sexton of the Three
Eye and President Justice of the Cen
trail association, ard it was their be-
lief that the conditions in both leagues
could be bettered by such meeting,
suited from it or not.
AS soon as the Central magnatss
learned of the plan 70 bring them to-
gether they began raising objections
until so many came into the office of
President Justice that he communi-
Gated with Mr.. Sexton and told him
he did not believe it would meet with
the approval of the clubs in the Cen
trial to hold the joint session. Half
of the clubs raised protests.
Fear Loss of Cities.
In the Central association there IS
a suspicion that joint session OF the
two leagues might result in the taking
over of several of the best towns On
their circuit by the Three-Eye league
and the trading of some of the weak
ones in the Three-Eye for them. For
this reason they oppose the joint ses-
sion and would prefer to remain IN
their present state for another year at
least.
