ILLEGAL FORWARD PASS
DEFEATS CORNELL TEAM

ITHACA, NY, Oct. 17.-An illegal
forward pass brought about the de-
feat OF the Cornell varsity eleven in
a practice contest yesterday played
against the army eleven from the
Forty-seventh New York infantry,
composed of former college stars.
The score was to o.
Cornell battled valiantly, keeping
the soldiers from showing the tall
over the line. Finally Alex Wilson,
former Yale star backheld man,
hurled q forward pass to Adams, the
army's left end. The latter dropped
the ball and then fell on 1t behind
the line. It should have been declared
incompleted, but the referee didn't
see 1T, and the umpire allowed the
touchdown to stand.
Wilson's line-plunging was bril-
liant Once he carried the ball sew
eEty-hve yards on successive dives into
the line, only to be halted on Cornelrs
10-yard line. Bill Farnum. former
captain and tackle at Brown, gave a
great exhibition at right tackle for
the soldiers.

Edward G. Barrow, president OF the
international League, will succeed Mr..

tive. That fact is certain. As certain
az the fact that Huggins will pilot the
Yankees in 1918. Huggins' appoint
ment was arranged by johnson. 1t
vas dietatorial arrangement which
win not be discussed at length here.
Colonel Rupert was the party Of the
third part. Mr.. johnson said:

the end OF the war. I'm going over to

against the future. It's business men

business depression war may involve.
I am for the bigger gsme-for Amer
1ca; for democracy; for France, for
Belgium"
France Tells story.
Harry H. Frazee. president OF the
Boston Red Sox, vouchsafed the infor-
nation that Edward G. Barrow would
be next years president Of the
American League.
Barrow" said Frazee, ''is one Of
the ehrewdest men of the game. he
won his spurs in the most successful
fight which the International League
put up against Jim Gilmore's outlaw
ring. The Barrow circuit had TO bear
the brunt Of that battle. No one on the
outside can appraciate what powers Of
executive Mr.. Barrow welded to keep
hfs organization toEether in the most
distressing circumstances"
Barrow attended the game between
the White Sox and Giants at Camp
Mills in company OF B. B. johnson
and William T. YawlIey. YGwkey
was at one tine president Of the De-
troit American League club. He Isl
stili heavily interested in the Tigers.
Also he is one Of the richest young
men of the United States. He Is rated
at upward OF thirty millions.

OF Yawkey, Frazee, and the majority
OF American League club owners.
Can't Verify the Rumor.
As to the coming OF Miller Huggins
to- this city there is a strange tale
floating around that cannot be veri-
ned. The interested parties, of course,
could not not be expected to come
with the inside dope.
In a word, Miller HuEgins is being
foisted upon Col. Jacob Rupert by
League. Johnson, it appears, became
very peeved with Branch Hickey when
the president of the Cardinals de-
serted Phil Ball and the st. Louis
Browns. He laid his snares to get
even Miller Huggins was proving a
SUCCESS with the st. Louis National
Leksue club, the opposition OF the
team to which Hickey transferred his
allegiance.
So, some time ago, the story goes,
johnson signed Higgins to an Ameri-
can League contract. At the time Lee
Fohl was none too strong in Cleve-
land. Fielder Jones had been a dis
appointment with the st. Louis
Browns. 1t looked a safe bet that
some one in the American League
would stand in need Of a manager.
Fohfs club closed strongly and James
Dunn decided to retain the present
incumbent. Huggins would not con-
sent to transfer that left him in st.
Louis. Donovan's I'll luck in New
York left an opening upon which
American League imperialism could
concentrate its greatest pressure. A
new hand picked manager for the
Yankees is the result.
France Not Satisfied.
A to the situation in Boston, Frazee
has not been perfectly satisfied with the
outcome of this years race. He does
not lay Ia Barry the cause OF his iisap-
pointment But II a change Is TO be
made as matter OF necessity, Frazeen
Intends to secure a spitfire TO pepper up
his boys, and such a one can be found in
Evens. During the worlds series Evers
declared he would manage an American
League club next season. FraEee will
not admit that Barry may be lost to
him or that any thought has been de-
voted toward Succession TO him.

WISE IN
uIMEL|GHT WHEN
PREPS WIN GAME

Spencer Wise is the latest member
of the famous Wise family to jump
into the limelight.. The youngster
plays right halfback on the George
town Preparatory School eleven and
bids fair to keep pace with the rec
ords set by other and more famous
members OF his family on athletic
feIds.
Wise was the whole show when
Business went down to q 80 to Q de-
feat at the hands OF the Georgetown
Props yesterday. Wise end rushed,
forward passed and line bucked his
team to a victory, aided, OF course,
by several other husky members Of
the Prep eleven.
Business was no match for the
Props. who were stronger in every
department of the game. Wise
seemed to be the leader on attack
and well deserved the honors he
gained yesterday. There have been
other Wise boys in football. First
Ray shIned at Business. Then Buck
and Ralph came along and made his
tory. Spencer elected to go to George
town Props, where he has Just begun
to come into his own.
All OF the other Wise boys are in
service at present The naval re-
serve and the aviation schools are
taking care of them.
There will be no big games in town
Saturday and the Technical-George-
town Prep contest to be held on
Georgetown field appears to be the
big drawing card OF the week.
The Props will meet Eastern and
Western and have asked for a game
with Central, which has been
promised them October 27, according
to Manager Cooke, of the PrepE
Technical has yet to win a game, but
appears to have plenty of stun to
produce later on.
Western and Business look to be
fairly evenly matched for Fridays
battle, which will open up the high
school series in the Central stadium.
The Business lads, under Tom CORN
ley, have not been in action for more
than two weeks. The failure of DR..
White to return to the school this
season set Business on the rocks.

GENERAL HOSPITAL TO MEAN
MUCH IN GROWTH OF CITY.

History Of cities and towns show
that one of the first essentials in a
modern city. which continues to grow
from year to year is hospital which
is open to all. A hospital where the
best doctors are free to come and go
and where patients whether they be
rich or poor will receive the very
best of care and medical attention.
Every large metropolitan center has
found that the better the care it gave
its people the more people wanted to
come to that city. With big gen.
eral hospital at Willmar, many per.
sons who now must go to Minneapolis
or Rochester for proper treatment will
have their medical work done here 1T
home.
Just how vital modern hospital Is
to the success of growing city may
be better known when one begins to
examine the mortality tables. A cur.
ious fact is revealed wherever the
hospital service is up-to-date the NOR
tality rate is remarkably low as com.
pared with those cities where there
is an out-of-date hospital service. Ex-
amining the facts shown that this is
the natural outcome. Wherever big
hospitals exist there the doctors hold
clinics and can and are better fitted
to combat disease and perform the
necessary operations. Not only do
the doctors benefit but the community
as whole is taught how to care for
itself by bulletins and statements is-
sued from a hospital.
Another service rendered which
counts big in general hospital is the
training Of young women to be nurs.
es. All general hospitals are schools
where nurses are trained and gradu.
ated. This in itself is worth while
reason for hospital. These young
women are given thoroueh course
and are ready when graduated to take
charge of cases or to have hospital
ward under their own direction. The
need Of such trained women is more
married now than ever before.
Citizens who are interested In the
! un-brildine Of Willmar will be inter
ested to know that Gov. Rice and the
! leading doctors, are back of the move
ment to see that Wfllmar erects a
| hosDital for the use of the whole
! county.
