TO GRAND FORKS BASEBALL FANS

Introducing to you Mr.. Edward
Wheeler.
Lest this picture create a false inn

he is not a holder Of the chair of
philosophy at FIikosh university.
Mr.. Wheeler is the guider of Grand
Forks baseball destinies. So.
Manager A. T.. Kavanaugh has sue
ceeded in .bundling him up and drop
ping him into the yawning stocking
Of local baseball fans.
And this Mr.. Wheeler. is some
Christmas gift. The very announce
ment that he is to pilot the local
team has sent other club managers
on an immediate search for better
players.
MIR. Wheeler is well known to
northwest fans. He formerly was field
captain with the st. Paul American
association team. and during the time
he held that position he built up a
neat little rep.
He is considered a baseball leader
Of tho first magnitude. Besides this,
he is an excellent batter-hitting
above 800 season in and season out
and a classy infielder. =.

NORTHERN LEAGUE.
MEETING Monday
Annual Gathering Will be
Held at Duluth-To Adopt
1914 Schedule.

1t was announced today by local
ball club officials that the annual
meeting of. the Northern league would
be held at the spalding hotel at Du.
luth on Monday afternoon, Decem-
Der 90.
|. The call has been sent out to all Of
the club n and 1t is expected
that there will be a full attendance
OF the magnates, as several matters OF
importance are due to come up for
consideration.
Naturally one Of the most import
ant matters is the adoption Of the
schedule for 1914. Mr.. De Cheveral
Of Superior has been working out on
the playing sheet of the coming g
son for a number Of weeks and the
rough draft Of the schedule Is ex-
pected to be ready to present at the
Monday meeting.
One Of the other considerations that
is due to come before the magnates is
the pooling Of grandstand receipts on
holidays. There will be opposition, it
is said, on the part Of the larger city
clubs. They claim that the smaller
towns o fthe circuit contribute too
small a part t othis fund to permit
Of their asking for a pool Of the
grandstand- as well as the cheaper adj
missions.
Constitution Drafted.
There will also be adopted a con-
stitution for the New Northern" as
the league has been called to sharply
differentiate it from the Northern
league of some years back.
The present constitution IL to be
greatly amended, according to the
opinion expressed around the circuit,
and this matter is expected to take up
a great deal Of the time Of the mag
mates.
In addition to the schedule. the
pooling question and the constitution,
there is also a matter Of finally dis
posing Of the circuit for the coming
season.
At the meeting called for Duluth is
the one where most OF the business of
the year is expected to be definitely
clancd up and put out Of the way.
there will be a multitude Of details
not even limited at now that must i'm
evitably come UP for consideration.
There is talk Of some trades among
the magnates and several deals may
be pulled off during the gathering.

answer almost qualities him as a Yam,

why should I take on 1873 pound.

manded.
Little Johnny is satisfied to 90
along with the feathers. and don't
think I never weighed more than 127
and more often 1874. This talk Of me
weighing 1870 is pure bunk"

kilbane never received the credit. he
deserved as a featherweight champion.
He whipped Abe Attell when many
thought Abe was going back. II this
was true. then what. right has Attell
to meet kilbane again? Surely he has
not so much chance to win from the
Cleveland shadow as he had two year,
ago. for Kilbane is % per cent better
than when he Won the title.
There are featherweights in the
country who can class with Kilbane,
although some who make a poor show

George CLANCY Of Baltimore has
been coming at a fast clip and may
prove a strong card. His quick defeat
