TDENCE

Providence gave the Newark
Field Club of the Penn-Mar
League their bumps at Providence
Saturday by the score Of 10 to g.,
whicn practically put the club out
Of the running for the pennant.
Notwithstanding the fact that
Newark got the fine lead Of six runs
in the first VITO innings, which is
certainly enough runs to win
most any old ball game, the team
went to pieces and allowed last
year champions to score at will
after the second. The score fol-

LINE PLUNGING MAY
FEATURE THE IOWA
ATTACK ON GOPHERS

IOWA CITY, Iowa, Oct. 22-That
Iowa will abandon it's wide shift and
depend on line smashing ability to
win over the Gophers is the belief of
local rooters following the practice
last night in preparation for the Min
nesota game. Two heavy backs re-
placed lighter ones in the workout and
this is taken as an indication that line
punching tactics will play large part
in Iowa's offense. berwick and Garrett
son played at left half and fullback,
respectively, in place of Donnelly and
Wills.
Carberry, who appears to be devel-
oping into a reliable punter, spent a
long time last night practicing in get
ting off kicks. A short signal practice
without scrimmage topped off the pro-
gram. Today light scrimmage was on
the program and another scrimmage
on Wednesday is expected to end that
sort of practice. Assistant Coach Maui
rice Kent, who saw the Gophers per-
form in their last two games, says the
Minnesota team is even more formid-
able than the Chicago team.

MILLERS BUY WILLY.
ST. JOE PITCHER OF
THE WESTERN LEAGUE

MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 22-Pitcher
Willy has been sold by the St. Joseph
club to the Millers. The new Mime
apolis pitcher is a graduate of the
Nebraska State league, although he
started his professional career in 1911
in the Mink league, where he was rated
as the star southpaw Of the circuit.
The Hastings club purchased
WHY'S release early in the season Of
1912 and the ex-Mink Lacquer pitched
Hastings to pennant, his record Of
victories topping the ZOO mark. After
two additional years of service with
the Hastings club, Willy was market
ed to the St. Joseph club of the West
ern league. The state league graduate
pitched three full games for Jack Hol-
lands aggregation, winning two and
losing one.
His complete Western league record
for the flag end of the 1914 season
showed that he participated in eight
games, pitching 81 innings, striking
out p baters and issuing Is passes.

YALE PROPOSES
ANNUAL GAMES
WITH THE WEST
Blue Authorities Send Out
Letters to Other East
ern Schools.
MAY BREAK DOWN BARRIER

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 22.-After
many years Of dickering, the probabi-
lities of the best Western football
teams playing the most prominent
Eastern elevens is now almost assur-
ed. At New Haven, the Yale authori-
ties are about decided in booking big
game with one of the Western confer
ence teams for next season and there
by following the example of Harvard
and Penn.
Send Out Letters.
The football rulers at Yale have
sent out confidential letters to Har-
ward, Pennsylvania and other Eastern
colleges who have been in favor of in
tersectional contests, asking for their
opinion on the matter and also their
experience in staging the contests.
Penn the Pioneer.
Pennsylvania was the first big East
ern university to put the Westerners
on it's schedule when it arranged to
play Chicago and Michigan years ago,
and has been playing the Ann Arbor
lads ever since. Harvard this year is
following suit and will also play
'Hurry Up" Yost's team, a week be-
for the Quakers.
Break Down Barrier.
Should Yale also schedule with
either Michigan, Minnesota, Chicago,
Illinois, Wisconsin or some of the
other big elevens in the West, as is
now proposed at Yale, a final barrier
will be torn down, and then in all
probability Princeton, Cornell and
other big teams will have big inter-
sectional games. Yale also in the let
ter to Pennsylvania asks Coach
Brooks opinion in the project,

MIDWAY OUTFIT
POUNDING AWAY
FOR BIG BATTLE
St. Thomas Crew Being Pre-.
pared for fought Struggle
Against Flicks.
DAKOTA TEAM STRONGER

ST. PAUL, Oct. %. - Coach
O'Rourke sent his St. Thomas football
squad through light practice last night
in preparation for the hard struggle
with the university Of North Dakota
next Saturday. The gruelling match
with the Aggies was telling on the Ca.
diets for their movements we're slower
than at previous practices. Nearly
the entire practice session was devot-
ed to passing and receiving the: ball
No scrimmage or tackling was in
dulged in as Coach O'Rourke sought
rather to get his men in good ccndi
ton before starting to work for the
Flickeriai;s.
Hans Out of Practice.
Hans, the Cadet right guard, was
out on the side lines yesterday. The
big fellow suffered an injured knee
in the game with the North Dakota
Aggies and will consequently be out
of practice for a few days. Although
Hans is developing into a good lines
man, nevertheless, with Johnson and
Ora Armstrong working well, the
coaches are confident that the line will
be we'll taken care of.
During the coming week Coach
O'Rourke will devote great deal CT
time to the quarterback position. Re-
CARELESS Of McGrath's good showing
at this position, Coach O'RourAe is
bent on returning him to one of the
wings. At any rate the O'Rourkeites
should have an extra quarter and with
Broderick and Gnonella displaying
fair ability, Lynn may be returned to
right end and at the same time be
ready to pilot the team should an oc-
casion present itself.
Expect Tough Battle.
The Cadets realize the proposition
they are to face next Saturday. Coach
Gill has one Of the hardest fighting
teams in the West. The entire squad
is reported to be in good condition.
The wonderful showing made by the
Dakotans when playing Hamline few
weeks ago was indeed a surprise.
Three of the Flickertails' best play
ers were injured in the game with
Minnesota and were unable to parti-
cipate in the Hamline contest.
With another week Of hard practice
Coaches O'Rourke and Norton expect
to have their men in as good condition
as possible. The University men will
outweigh the Cadets about twelve
pounds to a man, but it is hoped that
the speed Of the military men will pull
them through with the large end of
the score.

BADGER HOPES
ARE RAISED BY
PURDUE BATTLE
Cardinal Supporters Are Highly
Elated Over Victory
Last Saturday.

MADISON, Oct. 22.-Encouraged
by it's defeat of Purdue in the first
conference battle here, and with a
clean slate so far this season, the Wis
consin football team renewed practice
yesterday afternoon for next Satur-
days game at Columbus with Ohio
State. Neither the satisfaction over
their victory over the Boilermakers
nor Ohio States downfall before ILL
nois are causing the Badger coaches to
let up on the hard, steady grind of
training and Coach Juneau has told
his men that overconfdence has often
lost games to supposedly weaker
opponent. From now on up until
Thursday the Badger players will be
drilled for all they are worth to meet
Jack Wilce's machine. Blackboard
practice will supplement the after
noon work on the Randall field grid
iron.
Forwards Effective.
Although Purdue held Wisconsin in
the first half to the short end of 7
to 0 score, Wisconsin's heavy for
wards, like the German siege guns,
kept pounding at the Boilermakers'
line until they began to weaken, when
Captain Keeler's men followed up the
advantage with we'll directed plays
which gradually turned the fortunes
of war to Wisconsin victory. In the
second half the game was clearly
demonstrative of the Badgers super
iority. On play after play Wisconsin,
ploughed through for good gains. The
strength of Keller, Buck, Mucks and
Kennedy in the line had telling effect
in weakening Purdue's defense. In
the third quarter the visitors managed
to hold Wisconsin without further
scoring after Buck had succeeded in
making a touchdown by obtaining the
ball on a blocked kick and racing for
the goal.
Use Forward Passes.
Towards the close Wisconsin resort
ed to many forward passes, most of
which worked and one of which con-
tributed directly to an advantage
which enabled the Badgers to push
the ball over the line for their second
touchdown. Bellows passed the oval
with unerring aim in most cases.
Buck, the big left tackle, a veteran
whose work merits allconference
recognition, twice made his way
through the Purdue Lac and blocked
punts, twice he figured in completed
passes, and many times he was
through the line and had the plays
blocked before they could reach the
line of scrimmage. He was ally mat
ed by Captain Keller, who his ! cen
shifted to right tackle after playing
a guard position for most OF his ca
reer. Keller played one Of the great
est games of his life.
The back field problem seems to
have been settled with Bellows, Kreuz,
Cummings and Taylor at quarterback,
full. left half and right half respcc-
tivelv. In teamwork and interference,
the team has improved greatly in
the last week, and it will meet Ohio
with experience and confidence which
should count heavily towards another
victory.

A Settlement In Sight.

Joe Villa, writing in the New York
Sun of yesterday, says that baseball
settlement is in sight. According to
the Book of Joseph, the Wards are to
buy the Yankees and Weeghman or
his friends will buy the Cubs. The
Federal and Internationl leagues in
the East will be consolidated into the
new Federal league, and in the West
the Kansas City and indianapolis
teams will be merged with the Ameri-
can association. According to this
plan, the Federal and American will
be class IA leagues, with the National
and American leagues still the majors
This is the most feasible settlement,
although Minneapolis fans are still
hopeful that some switch of territory
will bring a major league club to this
territory. Minneapolis is as good or
a better baseball town than Detroit or
Washington, but the distance from
Chicago is always urged by baseball
posses When the subject comes up Tor
discussion.
The third interesting angle to the
settlement will be in the question of
the ballplayers and their salaries. The
consolidation and absorption of the
Federal league will mean wholesale
cutting of prices Of salaries and some
Of the tin-cuppers and the has-beens
will be talking hundreds where they
are now dreaming in terms of thou
sands.
1t seems to be assured that some
sort of settlement is coming, and
once it is affected, there will be some
interesting developments along the
line of adjudicating the claims of the
players and their fraternity.
