The Southern league was given a new lease on life at its annual meeting here today, when the eight franchises were extended ten years beginning with the season of 1910.

It took the league several hours of heated discussion before it was decided to allow Little Rock to remain In the circuit. Several clubs objected to the Arkansas city because of geographical reasons. There was talk of the league buying the fran chise und selling It to Chatanuoga. SKW PLAN TO HESTOW "LETTKRS" Old System at Nebraska University Hale Oat Some Good Player. LINCOLN. Nov. 8. (Special.) "King" Cole has read carefully oil reports of the I enver-tchool of Mines game at Denver Saturday and he has come to the conclu sion mac ine tjornnusKers win re up an other stiff proposition wl.en they go against ' Deao" Koehler s bunch of Minister a week from next aSturday. Thu we.--tern eleven hud an easy time with the Miners, beating them & to 0. The School of Mines is supposed to have a i-troi.g eleven tills fall, too. and they ahoulit have given Koehler'a team a mucn harrier battle. Cole thinks his players will be In fine shape for the Denver game, but he looks for a harder fight than the one with KannnH. There is considerable discussion on the campus Just now about changing the plan of grant. ng letters and sweaters to the loot ball players. The system in use now mak.s every man eligible for an "N" who lays on full half of a big game. Any pmver who fail to go through a whole half ii not given a letter. The games that are Jtnuwn a "N" games this fall arc the Minnesota, Iowa and Kansas contest, hltrur the Denvar or Haskell game may be mndd a letter contest. In i-ast seasons there have been several player on the varsity siiuad of varsity calihra but who never got to pluy the whole half of a big game and they were denied tiielr letters. This season the same thing is true In two or three cases. Thu best new plan suggested as a sub stitute, for the present one Is that of giv ing the head coach and captain the power to name the men who shall receive "N's." This would not make every man who plays in a big game certain of his numeral, for he would have to play good foot ball dur ing the ret of the season in order to ge- ihe honor. Some players might work hard, under the present scheme, until they played a full half of a big game and then Bluff the rest of the season, thinking they had done all that was necessary. The new plan would make every man work until the close of the fall for fear that be might be denied a letter because ha had failed to play hard ball all the autumn. This new suggestion would encourage men to stay with the team who might not get regular places and wouul give th? cuhcii more enthusiastic material with which to work. If a man l.nows he is liable to be selected (or a letter If he does faitnful service he is very likely to be a valuable man to any coach. This is the way the supporter of the new scheme reason. Tiie matter of changing the letter plan will be dlaruFSed at a meeting of the board of control this week and it 1 considered likely that the new scheme will be tried for a year or two. All the student mem ber of the board are In favor of the new plan. 1'easiy Prepares for Wolverine. PHILADELPHIA.

Nov. 9.-rackey McFar land. the Idol of the Chicago stock yards district, wa given the decision over "Cy clone Johnny" Thompson of Sycamore, 111., In a whirlwind ten-round fight yester day.

When assured that he was the victor, a broad smile overspread his face and he was happy as a school boy. He danced back to his corner, saying gleefully: "I've gotten rid of the last man who blocked my path to a scrap with Nelson." Thompson expressd the opinion that he could defeat McFarland In a longer fight. It was the general opinion about the ring side that neither man was In , shape to stand a long, gruelling battle'.
