.hdden Trophy

Supreme Court of New York Hands
Down Decision After Vari-
Gus Delays

NEW YORK. Sept 1O-The supreme
court of New York has adjudged the Gid
den trophy to the Chalmers Motor com
pany, The Injunction which has prevented
the contest board of the American Auto
mobile association from awarding the
trophy to the Chalmers company and the
latter from accepting 1t has been dissolved.
The contest board has been fully sustained
in awarding the Glidden tour victory TO
Chalmers entry No. 5. which was driven by
Bill Bolger
The Glidden trophy has been in litigation,
either before the contest board or in court,
since the Glidden tour ended June 80. The
Chalmers company protested the $500 car
which was first awarded the winner. on
the grounds that 1t was not stock. The
contest board Of the American Automobile
association sustained the Chalmers pro-
test.
Fl, o. Smith, entrant and manufacturer
OF the disqualified ear, then secured a tenn
porary Injunction, which held up the trophy
until today In handing down his opinion.
Justice Putnam said there was no evidence
OF fraud in the decision Of the contest board
and that, therefore. as the Glidden tour
Is a sporting event, the decision OF the
board must be accepted. The Chalmers

Badger Team
Sadly Weeded

CAPTAIN Dean Tells How Material i:
Threatened by Studies-Grad-
uation Hurts.

MADISON. Wis, Sept. 1O-(SpeciaD-'It
is impossible to say at the present time what
kind OF foot ball team we will have at
Wisconsin this year" said Captain Jimmy
Dean, when asked regarding prospects in
the Badger camp. I'VE won't know how
we stand until we see the men in the field.
There is a likely quantity of material in
school, but from what / can learn some of
the most promising men are laboring under
scholastic difficulties from which they
may extricate themselves before the play
ing season begins. Upon their success or
failure depends our chances"
This statement, made by the only Badger

University of Wisconsin. At the present
time it looks rather dubious, but IL some of
the men who are at the present time under

Warner Likes
the New Rules
Thinks They Win Results in PrOduc-
ing q Much More Spectac-
ular Game.

CARLISLE, Pa, Sept. l0.--Football Coach
Glenn s. Warner of the Carlisle Indian
school is pleased with the new rules. lie
believes that they will result in giving a
more spectacular game and will conse-
quently be much more interesting to the
public and less dangerous for the players
than the code governing the game in former
years. Coach Warner last year did some
experimenting along the very lines that
have been covered by the football rules
committee. He said that he thought the
forward pass would be used more thar ever
and believes that open and freak forma-
lions will be greatly in vogue during the
coming season.
The Indian coach believes there will be
a tendency to do away with the former ef-
ficient lines of work of the quarterback,
because Of the institution OF the direct pass,
However, he does not think that the rule
against the making of flying tackles win
materially Interfere with effective taokling
of a runner because flying tackles have
never been so much usedt as is popularity
supposed. The new rule will practically
only affect tackles made from the rear, in
which case 1t will now generally be neces-
sary to pull runner down by seising his
shoulders. Warner thinks that the rule
changes remove the necessity OF having TO
play abnormally big men on the line, and
figures that the athlete Of ordinary build
will be best adapted to football. This, con-
sequently gives the smaller elevens a better
chance to develop stronger teams than for
merly.
Warner thinks that football coaches this
year will have great opportunities to use
their brains and ingenuity, possibly a
greater chance than ever before in the his
tory of the game. Practically all plays
they had been taught are as good as ruled
out this year, and every football strategist
will have to depend upon his own origin
atty in working up an offensive system.
The Carlisle Indians will start to work
much later this year than usual How
ever, a few Of the students who have re-
turned from their summer outings are to be
seen gamboling on the gridiron at Car
Isle.

MORNNGsIDE IS AFTER IOWA
Hopes TO Make "A Good start on the
Opening Game.

Opening Game.
SIOUX CITY, Ia, Sept. l0--(Special y
Morningside college of this city has a
hankering to equal the feat OF Notre Dame
by taking Iowa university down peg this
fall. The two teams are scheduled to meet
in Sioux City October l, the Hawkeye man
agement having consented TO send the
Iowa City eleven to this city for game al
that time. For a conference team to make
a trip away from home to play a minor
eleven at an early date in the fall is a de-
parture from the custom OF the major
teams, but Iowa is going to do 1t this fall
and may find that IL has made mistake.
Morningsides prospects Of taking game
from the Iowa university eleven are con-
sidered bright by Coach HOLSTER. who
has had his squad camped on a lake near
onawa, Ia Practice has been the order
for every morning and afternoon since the
crew has been there.
BY establishing this training camp Coach
HOLSTER probably held the first practice
OF any coach In the country this fall. He
made a start that will be earlier by three
or four weeks than most OF the schools in
the western conferences will secure Iowa
the team that he Is set on defeating. will
not start practice for another week al
least.
