FED MACNATES FACE
SHORT CAMPAIGN FUND
Two Wards and Weeghman of
ChifedS Have Been Backbone
in Leagues Existence.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2S.-Ways and
means for financing another years
campaign was the chief problem be-
fore the Federal league magnates
meeting here today.
r. B. Ward and George Ward of
Brooklyn, who with Charles H.
Weeghman of the Chifeds, proved the
back bone of the organization last sea-
son, were first of out of town cffi
Gals to reach the city and were in
conference with Pres't Gilmore last
night. With them came the news that
Artie Holman, the former Cub out
fielder, might be the next manager
of the Brooklyn team. That berth
already had been assigned by the
scribes TO Lee Magee, one of the
more recent jumpers.
Holman was with the Brooklyn
team last year, and has had a much
longer experience in baseball than
Magee. He served his apprentice
ship under Frank Seele and later
learned a lot from Frank Chance. 1t
is figured that the best way to use
on the same team will be to make
Artie boss, so he can be useful even
if his legs keep him on the bench.
The names of National and Amer
lean league stars recently signed will
be given out at the meeting.
Announcement that the 1915 sched-
ule will be tentatively drawn indi-
Gated that the FederaPs circle has
been agreed upon and Kansas City
will stay in. Mgr. Tinker OF the Chi
cagO Federals announced that he
would not go east 70 rthe purpose of
trying to sign Pitcher Eddie Plank,
the famous Athletic star. Tinker
says Plank's price is entirely too high.
The accredited delegates present
when the meeting opened at 10
o'clock were:
Chicago. Charles Weeghman and
William Walker: Brooklyn, Robert b.
Ward, George S. Ward and Walter
Ward; Pittsburgh, Edward Gwinner
and c. b. Comstock; st. Louis, Ed
ward Steininger, Otto Stifel and Phil
Ball: Baltimore, Carroll Raisin, Har-
ry Goldman and Ed. HanlOn; Kansas

game on account Of rOughness. That
was in the second period. At the be-
ginning Of the third period a man was
sent from the Stevens sideline to re-
place the guard who had replaced the
one who was chased from the game
on account of smuggling.
The substitutes face was covered
with tape He limped as he ran. All
in all he was a pitiful looking sight as
he made for his place in the Stevens
line, but wonderful change came, as
soon as he got into the line. He play
ed like a man who had never known
a sick day in his life. He was the
liveliest player on the field.
After the game was over it was dis
covered that the bandaged limping
substitute was none other than the
regular who had been ordered out Of
the game in the second period and
who had donned the tape as a ruse
TO get back into the fracas.
New Hampshire State college. which
closed its season a week ago. won the
BOBBY championship Of the football
world. New Hampshire State played
eight games during the season-and it
didn't win one. The nearest it came
to victory was in its last game when IL
played a 90 tie game with Rhode
Island college.
During the season a total Of 224
points were scored against New
Hampshire State and that college was
able to score only FIVE points in its
eight games. 1t got two points on a
safety against Worcester Polytechnic
and three more points on a field goal
against Boston college.

DOPE PUTS NOTRE
DAME FAR IN LEAD
Locals by Showing Past Season
Should be Put Ahead of
MiChigan-EiChenIaub Con-
tender For AII-AmeriCan.

Part OF the victorious Notre Dame
football squad returned from Syracuse
last night and were greeted with en-
thusiasm 10y the student body. The
remainder of the gold and blue play
ers are expected 10 arrive at the school
between this time and Monday. The
MEN who returned last night are IN
excellent condition following their
battle against the fasteners.
Next Saturday evening an entertain
ment will be given in Washington hall
in their honor. Now that the team
has finished the season successfully,
dope" seems TO show that Notre
Dame should be the western cham
pion.
The strongest contender for western
honors against Notre Dame is Michi-
gan and judging from both teams
showing against the Syracuse eleven,
the locals have the edge on the Mich
iganders. From still another view
point, Notre Dame was only defeated
twice while Michigan lost three
games. It is generally conceded that
if Notre Dame would have a bout
with Yale at the end OF the season.
when all the men were in trim, she
would make a good showing. As for
the army the score would have been
a tie, if luck had not turned toward
two scores on fiuke plays.
Taking the Carlisle Indians as an
example. Notre Dame defeated the
red skins s 10 9, while Brown only
laid UP a score of 20 TO IA on the
same eleven. Brown then played
Harvard and both sides failed to
score, thus proving the strength Of
Brown. Again il is seen that IL No
ire Dame had played the eastern ele-
ven later in the season, a much better
showing could be made.
The principal dope that goes 20
prove the superiority Of Notre Dame
over Michigan is the Syracuse game
Syracuse defeated Michigan by the
score of 90 to s. While Notre Dame
has defeated the same team 20 TO O.
Still another method OF deduction
can be used. The Michigan Aggies
were defeated by Michigan TO 0. The
Michigan Aggies beat the Nebraska
eleven by good margin. The Ne
braska team played the South Dakot-
ans TO 0 and Notre Dame defeated
the South Dakota squad 33 70 0, thus
the dope points conclusively in favor
of the NOtre Dame squad.
Many Of the Notre Dame fans are
convinced that Eichenlaub should re-
ceive position on the All-Amcrican
eleven, for he has received notice
from the worlds greatest sport
writer's since the opening OF the foot
ball season. He attracted much at
tention in all of the games played by
the local team, by making line plunges
for long gains

HIGH MEN BLAME
TRIP FOR DEFEAT
Had Short Time in Which to
Eat and Prepare For Game.
Sullivan is DoWned Twice in
Runs Down Field.

Every member of the high school
football squad except Coach Metzler
returned from F'indlay. o., Friday
night. where they suffered their first
football defeat in three years, at the
hands of any high school team Thurs
day.
The members were somewhat crest
fallen over their failure to defeat the
Findlay squad, but attribute their de-
feat to the long train ride. with but
little rest between the ride and the
game They left here at 4:O4 o'clock
Thursday morning, and arrived IN
FindIay at one o'clock Thursday aft
ernoon. A hurried lunch was eaten
and the game was called at 2:3O.
This gave the men scarcely an hour 5
rest and their nerves were on edge
following the eight hour journey.
According to members of the team,
the local line was the weak spot in
the South Bend defense and almost
all the gains were made through the
center of the forward wall. Straight
football was used TO large extent by
the Ohioites and the locals could not
cope with it.
Twice Sullivan broke away with a
clear field in front of him and started
for a touchdown, but each time was
downed from behind. These two un-
looked for reVerses also contrived to
get the goat of the locals.
The men were unanimous in praise
of the royal treatment accorded them
by the Findlay team and its support
ers A banquet and dance was ten
dered them after the game. and the
members were lodged at the homes
of the Findlay players.
Findlay refused the locals a game
for today.
