MINNESOTA TO MEET
WISCONSIN IN WEST

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-the game
scheduled between Minnesota and
Wisconsin, which was expected to
determine the championship of the
Western conference. outshadowed all
other football contests in the West
today. Neither team has been de-
feated by n other conference eleven
during the season and since the de-
feat of Minnesota by South Dakota
in it's first game of the year neither
has been hard pushed by any Of its
opponents.
Coach juneau, of Wisconsin, was
sanguine of victory, while Coach
Williams, of Minnesota, realizing that
his eleven has a powerful foe to de-
feat, would not prsdict the outcome.
He declared his team was ut, but the
big scores run up by Wisconsin
against its opponents during the sea-
son made the Madison team n to be
feared.
Chicago and Illinois were ready for
their annual game, which was ex-
pected to settle third and fourth
places. Both teams have been incon-
sistent in their playing, and a victory
for either would not be surprising tc
the coaches. Michigan and Cornell
and Ohio State and Penn State were
10 engage in intersectional contests,
while Iowa and Purdue were sched-
uled for hard games. Many games
of lesser interest were to be played
between smaller colleges.

BASEBALL ID
ARE VERY MUCH NEEDED
BY MANY LEAGUE CLUBS

dence at all times such able and
brainy thinkers as Wagner and Car
rigan, men who practically won the
pennant for Boston with their gray
matter" s31
Managerial ability consists o oniy
in knowing the enemies prowess and
weaknesses. but in knowing the good
and bad points Of the men upon
whom q leaders reputation depends.
A striking illustration OF this fact
came up during the worlds series.
Hugh Bradley. a member of the Red
Sox, had been called in twice to hit
in two different games against the
Athletics in the most crucial series
of the campaign in m~id-season. The
Mackmen were feared~by the Red
Sox and the outcome Of the series
meant the flag. Bradley was sent in
the first day TO swing a stick in the
pinch. He responded with a rousing
homer over the left field wall, winning
the game. A day later, under the
same conditions, he came through
with a two-bagger in the pinch. again
defeating the Athletics.
Some time later Bradley was called
on again. but he had conceived the
mistaken notion that he was another
La5oie and he swung with the
strength Of a Baker, but not with the
skill Of Mack's star slugger. and he
swished the wind regularly thereafter.
When the eighth and deciding game
of the worlds series had reached the
seventh round and the Giants We're
leading, ] to 0. Stahl was called on
to use a pinch batter with a man on
second and one run needed to tie the
score. He looked over the bench
warmers. Bradley was eager TO grab
a willow. but Wagner advised Jake to
use Henrikson. a player who had not
been in the series and would natur-
ally worry even a veteran like Matty
after Big Six had pitched his team
out of so many deep pits in that
series. Henrikson had two strikes
when Matty made a mistake and gave
him one on the outside. Henrikson
IS a l~eft-handed batter who whips
them down the third-base line with
a "blooie-blooie' noise. The rest Of
the story is history. Henrikson
doubled and Boston had the founda-
ton for winning the game later, for
this deft move had tied the score.

What is the value of a live-wire
manager to a baseball cIub2
With the managerial position open
on the Newark International League
Club and everybody specializing on
the probable successor to Joe McGin-
nifty a few remarks on this subject
are at least timely.
1t is an irrefutable truth that some
managers can set o work out of
a team than others, whether il be
through personal magnetism, ability
to command respect or a perfect
knowledge Of the national game and
ability 70 plan and execute a seasons
campaign.
One historian IN speaking OF the
Civil War estimated nat the sterling
leadership of Generals Robert E. Lee
and "Stonewalle jackson was worth
100000 men to the C~onfederates.
one thing is certain. a manager who
has not the respect of every player
on his team cannot expect cohesion
and harmony, the two keynotes Of a
successful combination.
Harry smith Popular.
Harry smith had the friendship Of
every man on the Tiger team when
he filled the nominal capacity Of cap

title which was empty because he
was allowed TO use his judgment only
on the rarest of occasions. Further-
more Smith has been in the league a
year. knows the kind OF baseball the
teams play and has had an oppor-
tunity to become acquainted with the
merits and dement's of rival players.
Smith, through his long service as
a catcher, has acquired a knack of
picking out an opposing players
weaknesses with surprising mental
alacrity.
An old saying can be paraphTased
and fitted to baseball, and reeled of
something in the following order:
Some managers are born great,
others acquire greatness, and still
others have greatness thrust on them.
In the worlds series were two man
ayers who were the two extremes in
this statement. John McGraw has
developed his teams for years and has
always been among the to~pnotchers.
Jake Stahl was a failure until he
grabbed the Red Sex just when they
we're due to go through with their
pennant-winning performance.
1t was clearly shown in the world
series that Stahl's managerial ability

SEVERAL BIG
GAMES ON THE
EASTERNLIST
Penn-c Carlisle and Dartmouth
Harvard Battles Should
Prove Exciting.

NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-Yale and
Princeton furnished the star attrac-
ton on today's football program in
the East, with the Harvard-Dart-
mouth and Pennsylvania Carlisle
alnes in second place.
A squadron of special trains began
the work of transporting the army
of spectators to Princeton from New
York soon after sun-up. The day
dawned clear and cool, with the
breezy November crispness which
makes for the snappiest football. Not
a seat for the big game was to be
had in New York excepting at ex-
t%ortionate prices.
Although the betting odds favored
Yale as against Princeton, there was
rather more uncertainty In the rival
camps this morning than is Gus
tomary. Both Yale and Princeton
have been something of unknown
quantities this season, and football
experts generally have been willing
to say nothing more specific than
that Princeton has shown the better
offense and Yale the better defense.
YaIe's goal line was not crossed in
any of her preliminary games, while
Princeton met a di~scouraging defeat
at the hands of Harvard two weeks
ago.
The ACKNOWLEDGMENT game in
the Cambridge Stadium was regard
ed by most Harvard men as a fairly
sure thing for the Crimson. Last
year Harvard beat Dartmouth only
5 to 8, and then only by means Of a
blocked kick.
The Carlisle Indians, with the
Olympic champion Thorpe at their
head, were in Philadelphia today for
their annual battle with the Univer-
sity IF Pennsylvania, which made
itself famous last week by beating
Michigan in one of the most inter-
esting games of the year.

TIGERS HAVE NOT BEATEN
YALE TEAM AT PRINCETON
IN FOURTEEN LONG YEARS

Although Princeton beat Yale In
1899, 1906 and 1911. all three games
were played at New Haven. The
Tigers have not beaten Yale at
Princeton since 1898, when Poe got
the ball on a tumble and raced the
length Of the field for a touchdown.
And even this victory was not scored
on Osborne Field, where the football
games now are played, but on Brokaw
Field, near the railroad station, a
gridiron that was abandoned fourteen
years ago. The teams played a 0-to-0
tie game at Princeton in 1906.
Many of the Yale players have seen
both Harvard and Princeton play
football this year, an asset that few
teams have. II is not usual for a
team to see both its rivals matched
two and three weeks before its big
games.
Yale is busy these days learning
how to block drop kicks, while Har-
ward is just as busy strengthening the
protection for the ball as it rises from
the ground with the power of Charley
Brickley's right foot behind 1t. Brick
ley's kicking is too great an asset to
lose because of weak fences.
Yale has kicked eight goals after
its eleven touchdowns this fall. and
has scored three times by goals from
the field.
Captain Mercer, OF U. of p. found
himself in the Michigan game and
should be at his best against Carlisle
and Cornell.
While Yale has scored only SO
points this year, its goal line has not
been crossed, and 1t has been scored
against by only two field goals.
Harvard has only a week more of
work in the Stadium. Next Tuesday
The Crimson football players will be
81 on their Yale campaign.
Annapolis has been very weak
against forward passes this year.

SHERIFF HADN'T RIGHT
TO STOP RACING MEET

ANNAPOLIS. Nov. 16.-The validity
Of the racing law passed by the last
Legislature was sustained by the
Court of Appeals yesterday in an
opinion which absolved the racing
meet at Havre de Grace last summer
from all faint of illegality.
The principal point brought by the
State was that the Maryland Racing
Commission, created by the act in
question. had never qualified, as re-
quired by law. The Court of Appeals
held that the duties of the members
of the Racing Commission. under the
act, did not constitute them official
persons required by the constitution
to take the prescribed oath, and thus
they had not forfeited their status by
failure to take such oath.
The court sustained the contention
of the racing association that the
sheriff of Hartford county had no
right to interfere with the conduct Of
the meeting at Havre de Grace.

Isle Indians have scored exactly 100
points more than the Tigers-416.
Harvard has scored 1913 points this
year, but two touchdowns have been
made against the Crimson and three
field goals have been kicked against
Wendell's team in the Stadium.
Harvard has an advantage over
Yale this year in that its team has
been practically intact for six or
seven weeks, while Yale has been
making more than the usual number
of shifts.
The Harvard coaches feel that they
would not exchange any one man in
their own backfield for Lefty" Flynn,
of Yale.
The West Point coaches are trying
hard to work in Herrick, a 2O7-pound
cadet, who stands 6 feet 2 inches, as
a regular at guard.
The Harvard-Ya freshman foot
ball game at New Haven will be
played on the varsity field, as the
Yale regulars will be at Princeton.
The Carlisle Indians will be on
Frankield Field with the Quakers.
The game will show whether the
Pennsylvania teams improvement in
the Michigan and Penn State games
was the real article.
Williams has won only n game
from Amherst on the latters field
since 1896, this being IN 1900, 16 to 5.
Amherst has won three of the last
four games played with Williams on
