SAYS FREEPORT TO
REMAIN IN LEAGUE

A Bloomington correspondent for the
Chicago papers sent out the following
story of Three-Eye league:
indications are that the Three-Eye
league circuit for 1915 will be the same
as during the season recently closed,
The announcement that Evansville and
Terre Haute expected to remain loyal
to the Central league effectually dis
poses of the report that both planned
to enter the Three-Eye. There has
been some opposition to Freeport, it
being thought that its population is be-
low the Three-Eye standard but with
the withdrawal of the Indiana cities no
further opposition to Freeport will be
heard
"Freeport fans are planning to raise
the $1,000 guarantee. and will shortly
stage an indoor carnival. Freeport
will oppose any move to drop that
city"

CONFERENCE TITLE
RACE STILL MIDDLE

Chicago, Nov Minnesotas de-
cisive victory over Chicago. 20 to 7,
and the defeat of Princeton by Yale,
IS to Z. featured the playing of Satur
days football games in what may be
termed the semi-fnal round of the 1915
gridiron season.
The Gophers had been picked TO win
over the Maroons, but few persons ex-
pected the team of the northwest to
triumph SO decisively. AS result Of
this game, Chicago is eliminated from
the western conference race unless the
Midway aggregation wins from Hi
nois next Saturday and Wisconsin
beats Minnesota Such a result APP
pears almost improbable. but because
OF the many npsets this year the best
dope may go wrong.
