OWNER OF CHiEFEDS
OFFERS BIG WAGER
FOR A CITY SERIES.

Chicago. Aug. 17.-Assumins that
neither the White Sox nor Cubs win a
pennant this season. and that they
put on their usual city series, will the
winning club be entitled to claim the
champion OF Chicago? Not on your
life-nOt II President Weeghman OF
the Chiefeds has anything to say
about the matter.
When the elements stepped in and
prevented yesterdays game between
the Tinx and Pittsburgh Federals,
Weeghman Immediately issued a new
sort OF challenge TO the powers OF
organized baseball. To date the con-
eicts between o. Il. and the outla Wa
have been financial battles almost en-
tirely. Now Weeghman wants to test
the strength OF the combatants on the
ball field.
In an open challenge to both Presi-
dent Comiskey OF the White Sox and
President Thomas OF the Cubs.
Weeghman demanded that either or
both the other local clubs meet his
team in a postseason series for the
city championship. As an added in
ducement the Federal president offer
ed to wager $4,000 that the Tinx can
trim either Sox or Cubs.

FEAR YOST HAS
DIFFICULT TASK
Chicago Critics Not Very Hopeful
of tho Outcome

Chicago. Aug. 17.-Football hostili-
followers OF the game in Chicago are
already beginning to cast up the
chances OF their respective favorites
for the championship bunting. West
ern teams seem slated for an unusual
ly successful year. There is better
material in most OF the western
schools than ever before, and most OF
the coaches will have the advantage Of
men with experience.
Much interest is centered in the two
intersectional contests, in which Yale
meets Notre Dame and Harvard takes
on Michigan. To most western follow
ers II looks as if an even break were
the thing to expect, for ii is hard IL
conceive OF Yale's beating Notre Dame.
while Harvard is almost as strong a
hvorite over Michigan.
Unfortunately for Michigan, her big
intersectional game condition is woe
fully weak. Coach Yost himself holds
out scant hope of victory over Har-
ward for he has lost most OF his team
OF last season. while his freshman ma
terial has not been up to standard.
Harvard, on the other hand. probably
will have a veteran eleven.
Minnesota's chances are consider
ably weaker than they have been for
years, according to word received here.

her brightest year since 1911. Coach
