 The team it, is lined up this af- ternoon was made up as it will start against Princeton. with one exception. Bigelow, who played through most of the Michigan game, was at centre, but Wallace will be in the lineup again by Wednesday. Pennock got back at right guard, which ba1apced the line much better, and thereais no reason now, so the coaches sfty, why he should not be able to stand the gaffs for the remainder of the campaign.
 Eddie Mahan not only returned and played half back, but put in a long session of drop kicking. He also punted for the first time. and his kicks were accurate. His drop kicking practice all was done close to the goal and all Of his fifteen shots from the 15-yard line counted. The return of Mahan sent Hardwtck out to his end again, which will be another help for Harvard against the Tigers Hard wick best defensive strength was lost against Michigan because of the pro- tective scheme for the Wolverines forward passes.

 An offer is said to have been made club ,and it is said that Ban Johnson is engineering the deal, as the Yan- kees must be made a ibulwark of the league especially now that ePhiladel- phia has fallen back. Mack sis evil Athletics not only because he thinks recent happenings in the Worlds Ser ies, but he has set out on a policy of retrenchment.
 When pressed today for further in formation on his reasons for asking waivers on pitchers Connie admits still possess much of their ability, Mack said:
 My team, like all others that have been the idol of the baseball public for long time, has reached the stage where it needs a little overhauiing I can't expect a combination to last for ever ,and it is in the best interests of my club that II decided to get rid of several players.
 CT don't mind saying. that a surprise is coming which will cause more dis cussion than already has been heard regarding the announcement made last Saturday. I'm going to shake up my team, even though. I may be severely criticised by local fans

INDIAN IS
 ANXIOUS TO
 DESERT FEDS

L
 Jim Bluejacket, the Cherokee In dian pitcher, who Jumped the Giants to join the Brooklyn .'Feds'' last sea son, is sorry now and wants to come back to- the New York team Pres- ident. Hempstead and Secretary Eos ter both said yesterdays that they would have absolutely nothing t0 % with the jumper and that he would not. be taken back under any con sideration.
 Bluejacket was purchased by the Giants last season from the Bloom ington, H., club. When the purchase was announced the Indian pitcher was besieged by Federal League scouts. and, despite the fact that the New York club had assumed his Bloomington contract. Blue5acket 1g- nored it and signed with the Federals for a big salary.
 Biue5ackets was not a whiriwindl success with the Brooklyn Feds al though he pitched. several high class games and for a time was quite an attraction. His work, however, did not impress the Brooklyn club so very much, and it is stated that the salary which he has been offered for next season was not as large as. he expected. Like several other players rBluejacket is afraid of the Federal Leagues future, and wants to line up with organized ball again before the break comes.
 eve don't want any deserters in our club said President Hampstead yesterday <sBIuejacket broke his contract with us and now he can go his own way.

 '&Messrs. Hempstead and Foster were with me every minute of their stay here. Both are personal friends of mine ,and during their visit as my guests they did not see either Reilly or LeGore. They spent mulch time at the bowl, carefully inspecting it, taking thorough measurements, and stating at the conclusion Of their stay, that they believed that it would be a practicable matter to stage the next worlds baseball series here.''

 At the end Of that round wo1gast, with his face battered and distorted with pain, called Referee Roche to his corner and told him that a.' small bone in his arm was broken.

 The sudden termination came as a. surprise to the majority of the fstic fans But to those who occupied seats close. to the ringside it was evident ti3zst woIgast had been crippled From the fifth round on it was noticeable that Wolgast rarely used his right hand In the seventh round he only l1sexi it as a guard occasionally. In the eighth round Ads right hand hung heIuaess at his side. It swung back and forth with the movements of his body. Not once was he able to raise it. even to guard his face
 The battle was fierce one Tor the first 6o7r rounds and held the inter est of the crowd for two rounds more becauge Wblgast at times made 1t in terest1ng by his savage attacks It was a. batffe in which cleverness and ring generalship, plus the fortunes of the ring, gave a decided victory to Welsh.

PRINCETON PREPARES
 FOR HARVARD CONTEST

Princeton, Nov. s.---Not discouraged by their failure to beat Williams, f'rinceton's football players began the most serious work of the season yes- terday in final preparation for the game with Harvard next Saturday.
 The lineup will have to be fixed permanently by Wednesday, at the latest. If the sudden move of the coaches mean that they will keep Click at quarter in the last games of the season, the coaches have taken their final step in the solving of the long troublesome quarterback prob lem. It may. be that this move was taken to provide a. man who could step in and fill the shoes of Anes in a satisfa ctory manner.
 The shift recalls last year, when Click was used at quarter just one week before the Harvard game, and gained many admirers by the manner in which he handled the position. But it will mean that once again the sue cess Of Click is to be handicapped for the team, for the manner in which he has been playing at half has led to the belief that he will be among the very highest of the stars in the coun- try if he is left at that position.

 There will be two football contests next Saturday between eastern and western teams that are sure to attract great attention. Pennsylvania goes to Ann Arbor to tackle Michigan and Notre Dame will Journey to the banks of the Hudson to play WestPoint. It will undoubtedly be 8 warm argument between Penn and Michigan because. of the records the teams have made Both have been defeated this season but the players are of the fighting type who are not discouraged by defeat
 The Notre Dame Army game is a drawing card because of the. defeat the Indiana boys inflicted on the ca- dets last season. It was their display of forward passing last year that beat the army and made eastern coaches re- aIZe how important such tactics arc
 Yale football followers are worried over the report from Cambridge that Capt. Briclzley of Harvard was on the field yesterday kicking field goals He was running around, apparently as well as ever and the report is re- vived that he will go into the Yale game if there is @ chance for a field goal.
 t"The minor leagues will never be prosperous again until they cut down suitable to the size of their circuits declared President OfRourke of the Eastern association this morning. The proxy had been reading an interview given by President M. H. Sexton Of the National association who said the minors were to blame for their losses during the past season. He intin1at- ed that poor business methods had been responsible for the bad season. President OfRourIze has Iong been of the opinion that the Eastern aSsocfaL- ton should adopt @ lower salary limit.

 The real reason for Connie ,Mack's action in asking for waivers on Chief Bender is the Indians failure to obey orders just before the worlds series. Mack sent him to New York to study the Boston Braves in their series with the Giants Bender went to New York and had a good time, neglecting to even visit the Polo Grounds.

YOAKUM MADE TO LOOK
like A BACKSLIDER'
A DENVER PAPER MAKES HIM
CLAIM COLORADO AS HIS
HOME STATE

In yesterdays edition of a Denver
newspaper appears an interview of a
sporting writer of that paper with
Stanley Yoakum, in which Yoakum is
made to maintain that he is a Color
ado man, and that he feels hurt at
being quoted as the Las Vegas scrap
per- Las Vegas will shed no tears
at this announcement, for such men
as Yoakum have never caused any
city, with the lone exception of Den
ver, Colo, to mourn. The sun will
rise each morning as before and bust
ness will continue the same, even
though this prize fighter feels side
tracked when he is referred to as a
Las Vegas boy.
The interview states that Yoakum
has been in Colorado for the past ten
years. Perhaps YoaKum can remem-
ber how, few months ago, shortly
after his bout with Newman in this
city, he wanted to go to Denver but
was uncertain of his reception by GER
tain promoters there. Yoakum inform
ed representative of The Optic at
that time that he would like to go
to Denver but feared that promoter
of high standing, as far ah high stand
ing goes with such. would force him
out of the game.
The matter was not extensively in
vestigated but if Yoakum would tell
all he knew on himserr it might prove
that he would be glad to return to
New Mexico. He was satisfied to re-
main here and in Texas for many
years before going to Colorado.
The writer of the interview further
says: "And really a Colorado citizen
who is accused of being from New
Mexico has a right to kick" Bless
the reporter for his ignorance. His
idea of Colorado might be weakened
by trip to this state.

to be provisional president of Mexico.
Details were still lacking and depend
ed on the travelling arrangements of
the constitutionalist delegates who
are now en- route here.
On the delegates from the two Mex
ican factions themselves will rest the
burden of selecting the man of the
hour-a task which deadlocked the
mediation conference and nearly dis
rupted it last week. In the informal
conference all internal questions will
be discussed.
In international questions the me-
diation board will continue it's con-
ference. The fact that: the two war
ring factions are to be brought to-
gether to discuss the personnel for the
new provisional government has en-
couraged the mediation colony gener-
ally to hope for settlement There
are many, however, who are no more
sanguiIie than before that the vexed
question of the personality of the
government can be settled success
fully by diplomacy. 1t is an assured
fact, nevertheless. that before theiIlr
formal conference conststutionalist
and Huerta delegates will be per-
mitted to dissolve without agreement.
The power and influence of the Unit
ed States government will be brought
to bear with renewed vigor and de-
termination. A settlement will be in
sisted on lest graver consequences
ensue.
