HOPE To DEFEAT
MOLINE'S CHAMPS
Maroons Choose Lineup to
Wrest Football Honors
from West Ends.
LOCALS LIGHT BUT FAST
Have Experienced Squad to Cope
With and Game Ought to Be
Hard Fought.

After a. hard practice on signals last
night, Coach G. E. Gilman of the Ma
room football team announced the line
up for the first game of the season
scheduled to take place Sunday after
neon with the state champions. the
West Ends of Moline. The prospects
for victory for the Rock Island BOYS
are bright. The team is composed of
experienced players, not very heavy,
but fast and determined. Coach Gil
man has brought their offense to a
high state of perfection for so early in
the season. Everything points to a
close, hard fought game, and it ought
to be interesting, as both aggrega-
tons are exponents of the new open
style of playing. With a good day
and a fast field, the Maroons expect
to. execute few tricks that will sweep
their heavier opponents off their feet
The Moline aggregation will have an
edge of from seven to 10 pounds to
the man on the locals, but the Maroons
are not frightened by this fact in the
least.
Excellent Material.
The Maroons have some excellent
material from which to choose their
players and the pick of these will go
against the West Ends The lineup as
decided by the coach last night is to
be as follows: Caufield, c; McRea, rg;
bowers, TT; Stapleton, re; DeSmet, lg;
Upton, 1t; Flanagan, lie; Juhl, OBJ;
RIB; Robb, lhb and Smith,
fb. Among the reserves who will be
in the lineup before the game is over
are Merk, Skinner and the Tarter
brothers in the line, Sage at end, and
Lamp in. the back field.
The players who are to appear in
the West End lineup are the following:
Carlson. C; Swanson, lg; Foster, re-;
Teats. 1t; Williamson. TT: Hefferman,
le; Pierce, re; Kipp or Anderson, OBJ;

To Organize Club.
An effort is being made to organize
L permanent athletic club in this city
among the unattached athletes and it |
seems assured that the scheme will |
meet with success. An agreement call !
ng upon the signers to pay an initia- |
ion fee of s. and lend their aid in |
getting the club started, is going the |
'ounds and it has over a score of sig |
natures already affixed to It, The |
dea is to have the club composed not |
'nly of athletes themselves, but of the |
supporters of all sorts of games as
we'll. A club room will be secured |
md such sports as football, baseball, |
bowling and track work |
will be fostered. In time the club |
ooms will be fitted up with pool and |
billiard tables and possibly a gymna-
ium will be added. The idea is a |
,ood one and is deserving of hearty
Import and cooperation.

THE STATE IS BUSY
SAVING GAME BIRDS
APPROPRIATION MADE By LAST
LEGISLATURE is CREATING IN.
TEREsT IN PROPAGATION.

Guthrie, Okla. May 9.--The action
of the recent sepcial legislative ses'
sion in setting. aside $4,000 of the
state game protection fund for pro-
pagation purposes has had the effect
of encouraging club organization
throughout the state for the purpose
of propagating game birds and with
the stringent game laws enforced 1t
is expected that Oklahoma will again
become the home of many game birds.
as formerly il was the natural home
of the wild pigeon and turkey. prairie
chicken and numerous other birds.
The $32, 1000 set aside by the recent
Legislature. Is but the starter for az
tion by future lawmakers. In that
henceforward the program will be to
appropriate annually a certain amount
of the game protection fund for such
purposes. The game laws of the state
have already earned $4,000 from IL
cense fees. fines from violators of the
law and other sources, and II was
from this fund that the $4,000 was
appropriated.
An attempt was made during the
early days of the recent legislative
session 10 transfer $4,000 from the
accrued fund into the general revenue
fund of the state. but the attempt
met with such a storm OF disapproval
from all sections of the state. that II
was abandoned. A campaign OF edu.
cation resulted from the attempt to di-
vert the protection fund, and the as
sistance of the state game wardens of
Illinois, Texas and other states was
secured to show the benefits from pro-
lection and propagation funds in those
states.
1t was during this campaign of edu.
cation that Judge James r. Cotting-
ham of Guthrie, general counsel in
Oklahoma for the Santa Fe railway
system and one of the best known
sportsmen in the state. suggested in
letter TO Governor c. y. Haskell
that portion of the game protection
fund be set aside for propagation pur'
poses. In this letter Mr. Cottingham
outlined the benefits that would result
to the state from such a fund, and
he asked that the governor recon-
mend in measure TO the legislature
the use of some OF the game fund for
propogating game birds and the estab-
lishment of fish hatcheries in the state.
The governor accepted the sugsos.
tion of Judge Cottingbam, made the
recommendation in a special message.
and the game propagation fund result.
