GOPHER HERO ON PATH

Minneapolis. Feb 1O.-Lyle Johns
ton, captain Of the 1910 Minnesota
football team and star halfback OF
the gophers, has entered new field
of athletics and will participate in
track work at the university this
spring. Lyle has decided to take a
chance at the clnder-p path game and
will be in the running FOR the 1O0-yard
dash and quarter-mile events. The
former gopher captain was considered
a marvel in footwork on the gridiron
and his success in open-field running
in the capacity Of halfback and full
back bodies we'll for his destiny on the
cinders.
Lyle has been out in track garbs ev-
cry day for week and, under the di-
rection of Coach Dick Grant, who is
delighted to number him among his
proteges. is trying out daily on the
cork track in the armory. He is in ex-
cellent shape and will undoubtedly
compete in the indoor track and field
meet to be held at Urbana as we'll as
the western conference inter- collegiate
track and field meet to be held at the
university next June.

pile going to the winner. The style
will be catch as catch can, two best
out of three falls, strange hold barred.
These two fellows will tip the scales
about lao pounds when they walk up
on the mat. Both men are very mus
cular and each has about an even
chance for victory. 4
Last year Refs won a match from
the Wallum grappler, when the latter
was not in the best condition possible.
However this season, OLSON came to
the front and defeated A. North Of
Fargo, who had just won from Refs
in a forfeit match.
The revival of the sport of wrestling
in the city has been very marked, and
it is expected that good crowd will
turn out to see the event. There will
be a preliminary between several of
the young grapplers.
Both of the men are now in the best
of condition and will put up hard
fight for the victory of the evening.
The work of Refs has won the admira-
,tion of all the fans in the city, and
from all reports, OLSON is one of the
most gentlemanly grappIers that has
ever stepped on the mat.

GERMAN WONDER WOULD LIKE
TO ARRANGE A MATCH WITH
SOME GOOD NORTH DAKOTA
WRESTLING ARTIST.

Billy schober wants to appear in
Fargo.
Schober, known all over the north
west as the German Wonder" is one

THE UNIVERSITY
HERE WEDNESDAY,
UNIVERSITY or NORTH DAKOTA
AND THE "Y'' WILL CLASH NEXT
WEDNESDAY NIGHT - FIRST
APPEARANCE OF THE VISITORS
HERE THIS SEASON.

The University of North Dakota
basketball team will clash with the
local "Y'' team next Wednesday night
at the Fargo association gym at $3.50
O'clock.
The visitors were defeated by the
Fargo five last month on the univer-
sity floor. From comparative scores
the game here should prove to be
good one. The locals have shifted
their lineup and are going in the
game to win from the college lads.
The varsity players will be on
trip and the fact that a number of
men on the quint are well known here
should secure a large following. Eff
forts were made to place the game on
another evening, but this was the
only open date on the trip which could
be given to the Fargo "Y."

NO DOUBLE HEADERS

Cincinnati, Feb. 19-Some action on
the double header proposition is likely
to be taken by the National league at
its spring schedule meeting next week.
There Is a general feeling that the dou-
ble-header evil has been worked to
the limit in certain cities to the detri-
mcrt OF the game. A law will doubt
less be passed absolutely doing away
with so-called artificial double- headers
that is, deliberate postponement. or
edvancements of dates for the sake OF
getting a double header bill on some
other day.
The deliberate postponement Of
games is a practice that is sure to be
frowned on by majority OF tie mag.
mates.
Said a baseball authority today;
"OLe solution is to designate the
dates or which postponed games must
be played off-for instance, to pass
rule that a postponed game on the
first trip to town must be played

TROUBLE over auto

Chicago, Feb. Dispatches last
night from Cincinnati indicate there
may be something doing among the
Baseball Writer'S association relative
to the selection of scribes to determine
the winners of automobiles offered
last week by Hugh Chalmers of De-
troit. President Ban Johnson of the
American league and Clark Griffith,
manager of the reds, are quoted as pro
nouncing it all wrong to have COM
mittee decide the prize problem among
the big league players.
The idea suggested by Johnson and
seconded by "Griff" is that every mem
Der of the Baseball Writer'S associa-
ton be asked to vote by mail on the
matter. ITO pick five writer's from
the ranks for the honor would stir UP
a lot of unpleasant feeling" says
Griffith.

SCANDAL in COLLEGES

Omaha, Neb., Feb. 1O.-Pres. A. Ross
Hill of Missouri university refused to
permit a game to be scheduled with
Iowa, according to report, because of
evidence presented to him that Iowa
last fall sent a spy to watch open
practice of the Missouri team, who
took notes of the plays from the side
lines, stole the signals and later of
fered to sell these signals to another
school on the Missouri schedule.
Diagrams of the plays were drawn
by this man, who, it is alleged, is an
assistant coach of Iowa, were part
Of the evidence presented to President
Hill Missouri's refusal to permit
Iowa's negro tackle, Alexander, to
take part, had no connection with the
cancelling of the fixture, according to
the story, which calls on Missouri to
decide its position.

High SCHOOL PLAYS
Local Mideets Meet the jamestown
Academic Tossers at ~" This
Afternoon.

This afternoon at AIS o'clock the
locals and the jamestown high school
basketball crasers will line up on the
"Y" floor to compare their tossing
ability. The game viii probably be
largely attended as the high schooi
games are proving to be a banner at
traction among the younger enthusi-
asts of the city.
Last season the boys from Jimtown
defeated the Fargo five by a close
score, and the local gamesters still
hold this against the visitors, and will
endeavor to put cover over the old
score today. During the last week,
RIDLEY, a new man has appeared out
at the local practice and this addi-
ton has caused the Fargo stock to
take boom.
The locals will lineup as follows:
Forward-Booth.
Forward--McGinnis.
Center-Blix or Hines.
Characteristic.
Guard--Pollock.

on the first day in the same town; on
the second and third trips must be
played off the succeeding day whenever
possible.
This sometimes works a hardship.
for it compels the playoff on a day
when it may be inconvenient, but i:
would work against the postponement
Of games for the sole purpose of work
ing in a double-header. There is no
aoubt that double bills are bad thing
for the game in the long run. They
attract a few hundred or thousand
more people on one day only, to have
the attendance fall off until the next
bargain attraction comes around"

EhIer Talks.

Athletic Director George Ehler said
today: mo charge of unfairness was
made by the members of the Wiscon-
sin team against either of the officials
in the Minnesota Wisconsin game last
Saturday. Mr.. Davies accompanied the
team to and from Minneapolis and his
relations with the members of the
team were perfectly cordial On the
return trip two members of the Wis
consin team doubled UP in one berth
so that Davies might have a lower
berth in the same car We consid-
cred Mr.. Davies one OF the fairest Of
ficials who officiateed at any Of our
games and we presented his name
for engagement in most of the games
which we have played thus far, and
he was to- have officiated at several
of the remaining games of the series"

The ACCUSATIONS
ON WIS. FALSE

Madison, Wis, Feb. 11.-That insults
offered and i'll treatment accorded
Referee Charles Il. Davies of Milwau-
kee, by members of the badger team
after the basketball game at Mime
apolis last Saturday night between the
University of Minnesota and the Uni
versity of Wisconsin so worked on the
mind and feelings of the cream city
srbiter as to cause him to commit sui
eide in Milwaukee Sunday morning
after returning from the game is de-
MED by members Of the Wisconsin
team and the heads of the athletic de-
partment of the university.
According to report from Milwau-
kee, one of Mr.. Davies relatives is
quoted as saying that criticism direct
ed at him by the Wisconsin players IN
the return trip from Minneapolis so
preyed on his mind as to cause it to
become unbalanced. In a telephone talk
today, Joseph Davies, brother of the
unfortunate referee, denied that any
member or his family had made such
statements.
Interviews with members of the
Wisconsin team bear out the state
ment of Mr.. Davies.
s Coach Haskell Noyes said:
THE Minnesota Wisconsin game
was as fairly refereed as any ever
have seen. The work of Davies was
beyond criticism, as far as Wisconsin
was concerned. After the game Char
lie went with us to the train and he
and sat up for several hours talking
over athletics. He appeared to be in
the best of spirits. Not a word was
said about the game just played, ex..
cept remark on my part that the
Wisconsin team did not play up to
form. 1t never occurred to me dur
ing that game that Mr.. Davies was
anything but normal and / could not
believe that he had killed himself
when | read of the tragedy Monday
morning. / am sorry that someone
has seen fit to start this nasty rumor
about our i'll treatment of Charlie.
It's false, and gives the university
a bad name
That the Wisconsin players felt no
i'll will toward Davies is evidenced bv
the actions of two of the players. Cen
ter Jimmy Adams and Left Guard
Frank Youngman, who doubled up in
an upper berth that the referee might
have the use Of lower on the way
home. Davies had failed to secure a
reservation before boarding the train
and as soon as the badger players
found out the predicament he was in
they Immediately offered the use of
their berth to the referee. Both Adams
and Youngman said today that to their
recollection not word of criticism
had been directed against Davies by
the Wisconsin team.
