the Northern Pacific have realized
that more traCkage was needed in the
MOoThead yards and whenever the
proper opportunity afforded the mat
ter was brought prominently to the
attention of the men higher up, and
scores of recommendations have been
sent to the general superintendent DIT
st. Paul, but until recently there have
beer no signs that any notice had been
taken Of the requests. When the
superintendent of the division was in
town the other day supervising af-
fairs in connection with the Moor
head yards he informed Agent Stod-
der that a decision had been reach
ed on the matter Of the construction
Of another track in the local yard
and it will be placed where the gully
runs. south of the track from Eighth
street to Fifth street which old time
depression is to be filled up. Several
weeks ago a number of monster drain
pipes were unIoaded in the gully for
use in the projected filling up pro-
cess. but under the new orders they
may not be needed, The installation
of the additions. track will mean too,

passes and inc piunges. The c~ollegians

visitors to score.
The features of the game were the

Coach Reuber was not entirely salts

Saturday against the science schoo
men and expects to make some radical
changes In his line UP against Mitchell.
The squad Is going through some
gruelling scrimmages this last week
and they make two miles round the
track every night so they are not
liable to suffer from lack of wind. The
coach has enforced strict training rules
and none of the team are allowed to go
out in the evening without first con-
sulting him.
The game Saturday will give North
Dakota rooters a nance to get a com
parative line on the chances the A. G..
would have with Minnesota. South Da-

Mitchell will later play South Dakota

San Francisco, oct. 16.-In the matter
of drumming up fighting dates for
lightweight champion AID Wolgast,
Manager Tom Jones is running amuck.
And it stands to reason he is doing so
with the full knowledge and consent of
his fighter. 1t may be that Jones will
keep. faith with Jim Coffroth in the
matter of bringing Wolgast to la
Francisco for a Thanksgiving day con-
test-the writer believes he will-but
there is no shutting ones eye to the
fact that Jones Is angling for bids
from every promoter in the country. If
a man is to be judged by his acts,
Jones would have Wolgast boxing ey-
cry week between now and Thanksgiv-
ing. and every week between Thanks
giving day and New Years. At any
rate, he seems disposed to sign for any
place where "the inducements are sat
