 Caleb Bragg, the Cincinnati million aire. has been definitely confirmed as pilot in the next Indianapolis five hundred mile sweepstakes, Pullen and Wishart handling the other two. Bragg is now in Switzerland, where he spent the winter, but will return to the United States in ample time for practice.
 "caIey," as he is familiarity called, has not raced since the last speedway contest, when he had little bad luck, going out in the 1sth lap with me ehanieai trouble, His record. prior 10 that time, was sensational, his vic- tory in the 1911 grand prize capping a Iohg string of brilliant conquests.
 Bragg is one of the few men in the game who drives purely for love or the sport, Independently wealthy, he has ne strings tied te him anywhere But for his friendship for Spencer Wishart. it is net thought he would have entered again. When the latter, however. appealed to him to take the place left vacant by the detection of De Palma, he could not rafuse-

Game Scheduled for Today Local Campu-An Stars Bad ly Defeated in Practice Game-Academy Do Some Hard Hitting-An Stars Infield Like Sieve.

The N. F. A. team completely routed the All Stars recruits in a practice game Friday afternoon on the campus. The batting of both teams was terrific, but the Academy boys came out on the top.
 Errors were as plentiful as ties on railroad track In this department of the game the recruits of the All Stars had the better bY far.
 In the pitching staff Manager Hughes was forced to use three pitchers including himself He took the mound in the last inning and the Academy boys knocked the sphere in all directions securing seven runs and six hits, some of the hits were for extra bases.
 Murray was field captain owing to the absence of Captain Stanley and led the team in batting The final score was 20 to 15.
 Manager Leahy has secured for to- days game 8 team from Bulkeley high and the people of this city do not need the reminder of telling what kind of a team that the Whaling town sends. This game is sure to be a very interesting one and the Academys are confident of victory
 Bulkeleys lineup is uncertain, but they are sure to make the locals go their hardest pace.

Bragg's care is the same he handled in the sweepstakes race last year, sea- soned, however, with a lot of hard driving In 1913, like De Palma's, it was still green, which accounts in a measure. for its early disablement.

 Additional entries for the race failed to materiatize this week. though about fifteen are in sight. E. A.

 Manager Mack seemed somewhat disappointed at the showing of his great team up to the present time. They are not doing as well as they should" said the manager of the worlds champions. They did not hit in the spring series, and they haven't been hitting nearly so hard as they should. They are not down to busi- ness by a long way. Everybody, in- cluding the newspapers and the other clubs, have been predicting that we will win easily. but I do not think so.

STRANGER IS
FOUND DEAD
Young Man, Apparently Named
Clarence Earnest, Mang|ed
By Train.

The body Of strange man was
found in a terribly mangled condition
on the Sioux Falls track near the
Economy Boiler Co.'S. plant west Of
town this morning at seven o'clock
by the section men. After Coroner
Branton had been called the remains
were taken to Peterson's undertaking
establishment. From letters found on
the body it is evident that the name
was Clarence A. Ernest and that he
had been working at Columbus, N. D.
There was no other clue as to his
home or relatives. The dead man was
apparently about twenty-five years
old. He had a little money in his
possession. No arrangements for bur-
ial have been made, pending further
investigation as to his identity. 1t is
evident that he had fallen off some
freight train from between the cars.

Football Notes.

Thru some kind of misunderstand-
ing the high school football team fail
ed to have game last Saturday and
one Of the finest days Of the season
went for naught This week they
travel to Montevideo, where they
tackle the Window Institute bunch
The team is more or less crippled thru
the loss of Erickson, Styles and Os-
mundson, who are below in their
studies. Lars Pedersen will play quar-
ter, Manly Holt, guard, and Flop John
stone and Severinson will be on the
ends. This lineup ought to work in
good shape and the boys will undoubt-
edly come thru with another victory.
