The way to reform is to reform,
and the reformer who is such be-

even himself. A sentimental effort
at reform Is useless expenditure

fist Conference, which Is the new
national representative body of the
denomination.
The budgets of these three soci-
cites, aggregating $500, 900, have
been apportioned amang all the
churches, so that each church knows
what Its share is. Probably nothing
has ever stirred Baptists like this ef-
fort. In large churches and small.
in city and country. everywhere, the
Baptists are rising up with the deter
mination to wipe out the debts of
their great missionary societies and
furnish them with money enough
to carry on the mammoth work
which they have in this country and
abroad,
A general committee Of seven,
representing the whole denomina-
ton, is in charge of this campaign,
the details in the several states be-
Ing look after by state approtionafe
committees. These include in their
membership prominent business
men, who are giving largely OF
their time to the carrying out of
this big scheme in systematic and
business like way. 1t is expected
that most If not all of the whole
amount needed viii be secured by
the end ofFthe financial year OF the
three societies, March 81.
Budget Conferences is the term
applied to the great missionary meet
ings. special efforts are being made
to bring together from the churches
as many of the men as possible, and
pastors and laymen together viii
meet in earnest discussion of WAYS
and means, for raising the appor-
tionments in the various churches.

LOCAL PITCHER RETURNS
AFTER SUCCESSFUL YEAR

Irwin Jensen. the Salt Lake boy, re-
turned to the city yesterday after the
season spent in the Northwestern league,
where he continued his coed work in the
box for Spokane. JensOns record shows
twenty-five games won, ten lost and two
tied.
THE Northwestern had one of the
best seasons in it's history" said Jensen.
More fans, better ball and a good pen
nant race all made the season good. I
see that President Lucas is asking the
National Association of Minor Leagues
for special legislation giving the North
western class A rights. Ee IS certainly
right in his demand. We played as good
ball, drew as much money as the Coast
league and are entitled to the same pro-
lection.
Clyde Hall made a great record with
Seattle / told the Spokane manage
ment to grab him as soon as the Inter
mountain league busted, but not until
he had begun to win for Seattle did they
come to my way of thinking, and then
it was too late. I expect. to spend the
winter in Salt Lake. although my plans
for next season are unsettled.

Ogden, Nov. I.-With fair weather over
head the crowd picked up at the races
today and good sport was seen. The track
still slippy from the rain gave the mud
ders the advantage. Albion H, st. Joe
and Father Downey, the latter a heavily
played good thing, were popular Win
ners.
Billy Taylor finally found the spot he
liked and ate up Miss Butte and Salina
in the stretch to win handily.
In the second race CObbleSkfl set a
hot pace, but Albion II was the best
horse and won easily. DR.. Mayer closed
place.
St. Joe, a hot favoTite at less than even
money, made up a lot of ground after
getting away bad and won eased up in
the third race. In the next race TavOra
lay in behind Dorian Prince and after
wearing down the pacemakeT stood off a
fast closing challenge from Rather Royal.

speed of her last out.
Father Downey backed from 4 to to

FRESHMEN PLAY FAST
GAME AGAINST SENIORS

The High school freshman football
team sprung a surprise upon thei
Juniors, and, incidentally, the hum
dreds of roOters who gathered TO wit
ness the game yesterday afternoon, by
defeating its more experienced Oppon-
ents by a score OF to 0. The touch
down came within three minutes from
the Kickoff on straight line plunges,
after the freshmen held the juniors
for downs on their own thirty-five-
yard line. Morse and Fitzpatrick tore
through the line for large gains, plac-
isg the pigskfn on the twO-yard line,
where Atwood carried Il over.
The freshmen showed marked im-
provement since their game a week ago
gainst the seniors, and were IL not for
the fact that il took them so long 10
get into good running condition they
would have an excellent chance for
the championship.
As 1t stands now. the seniors are in
the lead, having won every game
Should they win from the juniors the
pennant is theirs; II defeated, another
game will have to be played to settle
the championship.
Only once yesterday was the fresh
mems goal in danger, when the juniors
executed a long forward pass, placing
the oval on the five-yard line. It ap-
peared that they would score, but the
first year line held.
Morse, for the freshmen, was the big
gest ground gamer on either side, and
was responsible for half Of the yards
made by his team.

GREAT INTEREST SEEN
IN SATURDAYS GAMES
East and West Battles Add to Fun
Yale-Princeton and Minnesota
Wisconsin Meet.

New York, Nov. 11-Until six games Of
football are played. four on Saturday
and two a week from then, the college
game win be the chief topic Of con-
versation in the east. Two east and west
games will be decided when the UniveF-
sity OF Michigan gives battle to the Uni-
versity Of Pennsylvania and Chicago uni-
versity faces Cornell at Ithaca. Arrange
ments have been made for special trains
from this city to both places. and both
Pennsylvania and Cornell are preparing
for the hardest battles OF the season.
Chief interest here lies in the game
to be played Saturday between Yale and
Princeton at New Haven. The Princeton
team, in the pink Of condition. is at New
Haven training hard for the match. Ths
35 600 seats have been engaged. and a
record crowd is expected. or almost
equal interest is the game Saturday at
Cambridge, when Dartmouth plays Har-
ward.
The season closes q week from Satur-
day with the annual Yale-Harvard game
at Cambridge, and never before has there
been such intense interest so far ahead.
All the 5000 seats in the Harvard stad-
ium have been taken for this contest and
il IS predicted that the largest crowd on
record will witness the game.
In the middle west the Wisconsin Min
nesota struggle at Madison is the big
game. The GOphers are favOrites, with
the Badgers counted on for desperate
battle.

.YOKEL'S RETURN STARTS
WRESTLING At Y. NJ. c. A.

Mike YokeI, the crack wrestling in
structor of the Y. NJ. c. A, returned to
his post yesterday after a summer spent
on his ranch in the Jackson's Hole coun-
try, Wyoming. Mike looked the picture
of health and said he never had been in
better condition.
With Yokel back, the wrestling class
will start at once and with the mat game
looking forward to a popular season the
association wrestlers will be kept busy.
The prospects for another trip to the
northwest look bright and every effort
will be made to even up for the matches
lost to Spokane, Seattle and Portland
clubs last spring.
Yokel expects several professional
matches this winter. Farmer Burns, in
an article published some time ago in st.
Louis said that Yokei was unquestiOn-
ably one of the hest welterweights in
the business. Mike has a letter from
AckeTmann, claimant of the worlds title,
asking for match.
YOkel brought home with him two fine
elk's teeth as evidence of his prowess as a
hunter.
Secretary Harvey of the Wrestling club
has already sent out notices calling the
members of the club together next Mon
day night for preliminary conference as
to the seasons work.

MAY MEET NEW YEARS

New York, Nov 11.--There is a
strong probability that Jack Johnson
and Sam Langford viii he matched to
fight in San Francisco either on New
Years day or Washington's birthday.
Jim Coffroth has tentative assurance
from George Little, Johns0n's manager,
that the big fellow will take on Lang
ford if his theatrical engagements now
contracted for will permit.
Langford is reported to be willing
to sign up any time Johnson is ready.
The fight will probably be held in COf-
froth's arena at Colma OF one Of these
two days. most likely the latter. as it
is believed the present vaudeville cir
cult on which Johnson is booked viii
carry him well into December which
would not allow sufficient time for
training in San Francisco.

CUT DOWN ON PASSES

At a recent meeting of the athletic
council of the University action was tax
en- to stop the issuing of passes as far
as possible. in order to gut down the
expenses of the council. To this end the
council has decided to stop issuing passes
for street car advertising and has also
restricted the issuing of only a limited
number of passes to the football men.
At the meeting Of the athletic council
held Thursday afternoon the question as
to what kind of a ~ students would
be allowed to wear who had not won
their letter in athletics, vas discussed.
The matter was later referred to a COM
mittee to determine what rights of re-
striction the athletic council had.
