MIDWAY TEAM
CONFIDENT Of
WINNING TITLE
"We're the Winners for 1915"
Slogan of Chicago Football
Enthusiasts
CHICAGO STARS ARE
IN FIRST CLASS SHAPE
Gopher Game and Wisconsin Ill
inois Game Will Decide
Championship

Z Chicago, Nov. 9.-"We're the win
ners OF 1916 is the slogan on the Mid
way this week. These words, printed
on small card, are worn by the
coaches and all the undergraduates on
the campus. If confidence Is any cri-
terion, the Gophers and lllini are in
fer sound drubbings by the Maroons.
If Pete Russell IS asked what he
thinks of his teams prospects, he will
emphatically state that Minnesota has
no chance. The other Maroon play
ers think the same. 81.
There is one exception, however,
Coach Amos Alonzo Stagg. He feels
that unless he can strengthen his line
so per cent his teams chances are
uncertain against the powerful driv'
ing of the Minnesota backs.
In anticipation Of just such stu.
alton, Stagg started two weeks ago to
build up his forward wall. The in.
juries to Sparks, Mcconnell, Scanlon
and Larson necessltated =: several
shifts. OF these men only tw0A-S cam
lon and Larson-are likely TO recover
in time for the crucial games :.
Strengthen E'ne.
With these men out of the game the
coach faced shattered line. qmmed-
lately he shifted Brelos, talfbatk, to
right.end, where he. made g6ods Fish
er was shunted to right guard and
Redmon brought from the sidelines to
fill the pivotal position. Brodie was
tried out at laft guard In the Purs:ao
game and, though he played we'll, he
lacked the experience necessary for q
big game like that with Minnesota.
Stagg made another shift, this time
moving Whiting, left-end,. over to left
guard on account of his; experience.
This combination looked the best that
the Maroon coach could ftrot out, and
it will probably be- the linesup which
will face the Gophers next Saturday
unless Scanlon and Larson do some
rapid recovering. :'.&r ..... ,, .
With this forward wall to protect
his speedy backfierl men, the Midway
will have hopes to grab the honors
from the Gophers and Illini. The
backfeld men are so light that smash
ing the line will avail them littlye,
and so the Maroons will probably rely
upon trick formations and end runs.
Two Sets of Backs.
The Maroons will have two COM
plete sets of backs to inject into the
game. Russell will probably be the
only man to 20 through the entire
game, as he has done all season. Pete
has not been used much in previous
games, but his fleet running is expect
ed to be the one big asset of the Ma
room team. This is Pete's last year,
and he undoubtedly will try to end
his football career in blaze of glory.
Dobson, the injured fullback, is now
able to hobble about without the aid
of his crutches, and high hopes are
entertained for his recovery in time
for the Illinois game. With him at
fullback the driving power of the field
will be greatly strengthened. ...

WANTLAND INQUEST !: :: ::
STARTED YESTERDAY
Coroner Will Investigate Recent
Head on Collision on
N. P,

The coroner's inquest 20 determine
the responsibility for the recent Aeac'
on collision on the Northern Pacific,
in which Engineer John Wantlanc
was killed, was started yesterday al
Driscoll. ,s' H..
Several witnesses were examined
yesterday. Martin Fitjar, who was
severely injured in the wreck, Is able
to be about once more.
Mr.. Fitjar was the only person wita
Engineer Wantland at the time of the
accident and he, says that so far As nc
is aware Mn. Wantland did everything
in his powed to stop the trim and T.:
save his own life. They had been
talking Of the meeting point and had
seen the train for some t!ns rs they
approached Angora. The air seemed
to be working all right, but in tae
few seconds before the train struck
nothing seemed to be possible tC avoid
a wreck. Mr.. Fitjar says that Engi-
neer Wantland was as usual IN every
respect and he indicated nothing was
wrong until he saw that a collision
was inevitable and told his fireman
to jump.
Mr. Fitjar says he jumped without
asking any questions and saws he
struck the ties just about the instant
the engines came together. Then he
rolled over along the ties and between
the rails. He is positive that Mr..
Wantland never spoke after being
reached by members Of the freight
crew and others. 'Mr. Fitjar says ii
was an experience that he hopes
never to undergo again. 1t turned
out that he did the right thing at
the right time, but lie says he would
not take that jump again for any
amount. He had less than Is sec.
onds in which to act, including max
ing up his mind to jump. He. cross
ed over the engine and got part way
down the gangway when lie jumped.

Extra Session
For Illinois

timated in statement issued tonight
that special session Of the legisla-
ture would be called not later than
Nov. %, but no formal call has been
issued and none probably will be be-
fore next week.
Gov. Dunne's statement gives two
reasons for the necessity Of calling
special session. The tax levy, he
said, must be fixed during December
and the other reason for the session
was the necessity for settling the mat
ter of state employees, many Of whom
have been working for some time
without pay due to the holding up of
