NEWSPAPER MAN BECOMES HEAD
OF NORTHWESTERN u. ATHLETICS

Evanston, Ill.-Northwestern uni
Versity has followed the policy of
the Chicago Cubs in appointing a
newspaper man to a responsible
position. The university has nam
ed James Leonard Lee, for seven
years editor of the Evanston News
Index and a former Chicago news
paper man, director of athletics In
the Methodist institution. The Chi
cago National league baseball club
last spring elected Bill Veeck, pres
ident and William Seys vice presi-
dent and secretary of the club.
Both were newspaper men.
Lee is a former captain of the
world champion Crescent five of
Evanston which in 1907 made a
1S,000-mile tour OF the United
States and Canada playing all of
the leading basketball teams. For
a number of years he was a well
known sport writer on a Chicago
paper. He Is familiar with all
branches of intercollegiate athlet-
les. His appointment places him
in direct charge of all the North
western athletic teams.
Lee is 80 years old, a 32nd de-
gree Mason and secretary of the
known as Jimmy" Lee to western

CUBS TREATED
ROUGH IN LAST
EASTERN GAME
Boston Braves Attack ViciOusIy and
Are VictOrs in Both Halves
of Double Header.

Boston, Mass, Aug. 27.-The
Cubs completed their eastern en-
deavor for the year in rather igno-
mjnious fashion yesterday, slough
ing two games in one afternoon to
the hands of the Braves. Scores
tC 0 and 7 to 2.
The first game ought to have
been a pushoVer for the Mitehells,
as they battered Oeschger for 10
hits, while Alexander was holding
the Braves to three. But two of
those three got together in the
fourth inning for the only run
made and the Cubs wasted their
10, usually by bad judgment on
the bases.
The Cubs were in the second
game for only four innings. after
which an extremely sloppy fifth
put victory out of reach. Five
runs were scored in that spasm by
all kinds of things, which included
only three hits off Claude Hendrix.
who officiated all the way. Mitch
ellis men batted Dick Rudolph so
hard he was removed to the safety
zone after the fifth and Dana Fill
lingim finished the slabbing.
The visitors could have made the
second encounter much closer if
they had run bases with any de-
gree of sanity, but they continued
the Inflated work of the first game
to some extent and threw away
chances for runs that way.

USUAL HANDFUL SHOWS Up FOR
FIRST GRID MEETING OF YEAR
Walter Flanagan Gives a Brief
Summary of the Situation as it
Stands at Present.

The usual handful showed up for
the first football meeting of the
year at the Rock Island house last
night. Among those present were
a few players of note who in the
past performed stellar duty on the
Independents. There were more
than a few new aspiring candidates
for a position, ali more or less in
experienced, but not lacking in
pep. 1t served well as a starter,
but of course we look for better
things by the time the season rolls
around.
Walter Flanagan said his say so
without elaboration. He did not
decorate the situation.
We hope to give Rock Island as
strong a team as ever" he spoke.
I'm glad to have every man Of
you come out and fight for recog-
milton because there are a couple
Of positions in the squad that will
have to be filed by new men. And
] want any others who feel they
would like to try out to be ready
10 do so when the first practice call
is sent ont.
"As things now stand, it looks
ike we might have Hardy and Fos-
dick on the team again. Both men
have assured me that if they play
football in these parts at all, it
will be in Rock Island, where they
say they have always received a
square deal.
u have a letter from Ernie Nc
Manus in which he states he wants
to return to his old home town for
the grid season. But it is not
certainty yet whether Ernie will
be with the Independents, although
there is plenty of cause for hope"
Wyland. Paddy Quinn, Jack Col
Inns, Al Jorgenson and Rookie Kim
BILE were on hand. These five play
ers of note are anxiOusly awaiting
the first chance to get out and
scrfmmage Then there was Ernie
BIankenburg and Vincent McCar-
thy, two men who made excellent
records with the Rock Island high
school in the past couple of years.
There were others present, but the
majority of them came because of
their interest in the sport.
The situation being favorable,
the first practice of the year may
be called the last of the week
Douglas park will be put in shape,
the circus which recently showed
there having caused considerable
damage. Immediate steps are to be
taken to have lights installed to
permit the nightly signal drills.

tory at st. Louis.

! st. Louis, Mo, Aug. 27.-With
the score tied in the 10th inning of
a scrappy contest yesterday, Eddie
Collins drove a home run clear
over the right bleacher and the
White Sox grabbed the ball game,
4 20 8. The victory puts the Sox
seven games ahead in the race for
the flag, and although Bill Gleason
and every one of his athletes were
fighting mad on the ball field yes
terday, they were happy last night
There wasn't any question of
their being fighting mad on the
field. and because of the fight they
displayed they probably have hand
icapped themselves a bit for the
next few days.
Schalk and Kerr Banished.
Ray Schalk got so mad that he
bounced the ball into the earth at
the home plate in the sixth inning
and pushed his fists into Uup Mo
riarity's chest protector, for which
he promptly was ordered off the
ball field.
Dick Kerr was so mad when Mo-
riarty called him out on strikes in
the ninth that he dashed his bat to
earth and unloaded some heavy
words, for which he, too, was ban
ished Both may draw suspensions
for their actions unless the officials
figure the intensity of the flag race
has made abnormal fellows of them.

LOCAL HIGH TO
START ON Grid
PRACTICE SOON
Crimson and Gold Boys Hope fol-
New Material to Fill Up
Gaps.
BY KEITH NELSON.

To the local fan about this time
every year comes the question as
to what kind of football team the
Rock Island high school will put
on the gridiron this year. At the
present time it is almost impossible
to estimate the real standing of the
undergraduate but a little pre-
season dope roughly predicts what
the boys will be able to do.
With the beginning of the 1919
season only one week away Coach
W. L. Kimmel has five letter men to
start on. These men won letters
on the team last year, and are Mil
stead, captain; Blankenberg. Olson,
Duffin and Hencke. A mum Der of
other men were in suits last year
but did not participate in enough
games to win the school emblem.
The school camp was filled with
joy this morning when Captain
Milstead walked into it. Milstead
has been in the wheat fields for the
past three months and looks finer
than ever. When the big tackle left
Rock Island last spring he weighed
in the neighborhood of 200 pounds
considerable and is feeling the
best ever. This is Milstead's third
season with the pigskin and he
coach work out a we'll oiled ma
chine.
BIankenburg will be remembered
by the Moliners for long time. 1t
was Blankenburg who won the Mo
year. He is a good tackle and
played along with Milstead during
last season but is making strong
bids for the fullback position.
Ernie never missed a second last
year and it is hoped that he will
be back again this season to keep
up his good record. Olson and
Duffin played the half positions last
year and probably will be placed !
there again this season. Duf1in is
capable of filling the quarterback
job and if no other can be found, !
fans will probably hear Duftin cali !
signals this year Olson is a short |
stubby little back and tears
the line like a bullet. !
Hencke played end during 1918 and /
will have a berth some place on I
the team again this year.
Coach Kimmel refused to give /
any more names as prospects for /
the team. He did not say whether +
he has any new players or not but .
it matters little what he has on !
hand he will give stiff opposition |
to the opposing teams. The coach /
stated that he would give names of /
the prospective players as soon as |
school starts.
