MADISON. Wis., Nov. 12 -(Speclal.)-On
the eve of the game to deride the western
championship, the rooters are still up In
the air. Odds In favor of Minnesota stand
t 1 to 1. with very few bets being posted.
The reason for this uncertainty Is the
erratic form which the team has shown In
practice this week. Monday It was good.
Tuesday It was the worst shown this sea
ion. Wednesday the varsity plowed
through the freshmen In fine style. What
they can do on Saturday Is so much a mat
ter, of speculation that none feels like risk
ing his money on It. The last scrimmage
before the game was on Wednesday.
One thing that has slowed up the var
lty's play Is the new signals. It Is now
practically certain that both Indiana and
Northwestern were wlso to Wisconsin's
signals, wlllch may explain something of
the poor showing the team made. At any
rata, a complete new set has been learned
for the rest of the season, along with a
number of new plays Barry has devised to
surprise the Gophers. During the last week
the field has been guarded by student mar
shals, and on one occasion Schuknecht,
Minnesota's assistant coach, was forced to
leave the field under protest. This Incident
has caused the coachea considerable un
easiness. Mackmlllar, the big guard, was relegated
to the subs this week, hlg place being taken
alternately by Iaklsch and Neprud. This
change came as a great surprise to all
local followers of the game, who had re
garded Mack as a fixture In the left side
of the line. It Is possible that he may go
In tomorrow, but present Indications point
to Iaklsch as the man.
A rumor that "Keckle" Moll had been
again suspended caused much excitement
In the student quarter Tuesday night, but
was found to be without foundation. Boyle
Is back in the game again. He will have
to play the game of his life against
Walker, the Gophers' giant right tackle,
but those who have watched "Butch" this
year feel that he will more than hold his
own.
: Wile Has Bad Knee.
Captain Wllce has been out of scrimmage
most of the time with a bad knee, while
Culver, the star half, has had much
trouble with his ankle. However, the two
days without scrimmage have given the
cripples a chance to recover and not one
of the ' regulars will be missing from the
lineup when the whistle bVpws tomorrow
afternoon. ' Wisconsin's lineup Is: Left
end, Bunker (10) ; left tsckle, Boyle (1S6);
left guard,!IaklHch'(175); center, Arpln (1C2);
right guard, Buser (1R0); right tackle, Ost
hoff (186);' right end, Dean (150); quarter,
Moll (153);- right halfback, Anderson (169)
left halfback. Culver (165); fullback and
captain, Wllce (170).
The average weight Is about five pounds
less than Minnesota. Wisconsin Is consid
erably outweighed In the line and It Is the
line plunges of Rosenwald and Pickering
that are most feared.
The greatest .crowd ever assembled at
Camp Randall will witness the game. All
seats in the extra bleachers erected have
been sold and the "S. R. O." sign Is out
A large delegation will coma from Mil
waukee and another from Minneapolis,
Wisconsin Is famous for Its rooting and
whatever the outcome of the game the
yells will be loud and long. A victory for
Minnesota will give the Gophers a clear
t'tle to the championship of the west.
Should Wisconsin happen to win It will
still have to conquer Chicago, the team
which has been the Badger hoodoo for
years. '
their old-time form In keeping their front
Impregnable to the opposing eleven's at
tack. Keinr full elevens were on the field this
afternoon, nisklng the largest squad of
plavers that has ever reported for practice
st Nebraska this late In the reason. Many
of the men who form the secondary teams
sre Ineligible this fall, but will be realy
to play next year If needed.' So many of
these Ineligible are considered varsity ma
terial that "King'' Cole all this week has
been giving the scrubs much of his atten
tion. The coach has been getting a line on the
new material so that he will know what
to do with the most promising players
next fall. It Is believed Nebraska has the
largest and best bunch of material for
next fall that has been on hand here In
eight years. '
''Xing" Cole will be out of town tomor
row, going to Denver to watch the clash
between Denver and Haskell, each of
whom Is to be Nebraska's opponent within
the next two. weeks. The Cornhusker
coach expects to get a line tn the play of
both teams so thnt he can prepare his
eleven fur the coming games.
Nebraska students expert the Denver
aggregation to take the measure of Ben
der's Indians without any great effort.
Thy would be immensely surprised If the
pupils of Johnny should turn the trlrk.
Local students are watching the games
between Ames and Iowa at Iowa City and
Minnesota and Wisconsin at Madison to
morrow afternoon. They expect Ames to
defeat the Hawkeyo nd are "pulling"
for the Gophers to humble the Badgers.
The Lincoln-Omaha High school game Is
the center of local Interest and will be
witnessed by a large crowd. The. sale of
seats has surpassed that of any game
since the Knglewood eleven of Chicago
was here In 1806. Omaha Is the favorite
among the university students.

Drake-Mlsaoarl Game Today

COLUMBIA. Mo.. Nov. 12. (Special.)
Drake, said to be the strongest team In
Iowa, will Invade Columbia tomorrow to
play Missouri, as yet also undefeated, a
game of foot ball that will have more di
rect bearing on the Missouri Valley con
ference championship than any game yet
played. That Coach Roper and the Tigers
fear the reeult of Drake's Invasion Is
shown by the fact that secret practice has
been the order all week, and by the fur
ther fact that many changes' are being
made in the lineup and style of play.

time at left end In Dlaee of Idler, and his

out of danger; Thatcher has sufficiently
recovered to go back into his regular right
guard position, and Bressler, a 196-pound
sub center, has been placed on- the train

signs of weakening. These shifts lessen
the wetght to something like a 160-pound
average, but greatly strengthen the of

Lack of MeGovern and Johnston
Rerlonaly Felt.
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Nov. 12. (Spe
cial.) Practicing aa they have never be
fore practiced for any game the Minnesota
foot ball team, 'with Its two particular
stars, MeGovern and Jon'iston, on the side
lints, Is leady to meet Its traditional ene
mies on hostile ground next Saturday aft
ernoon on Camp Randall. Ever since the
Chicago' game Dr. Williams has worked
like .eoal heaver to round his proteges
Into the form necessary to give the Bad
gers a ha 'tie. royal when the two teams
meet. The Injury to Lisle Johnston at
Omaha was a sad blow to Minnesota's
chances, but when scrappy little MeGov
ern ruffered a like fate In the Chicago
lame the cup of sorrow was filled to over
flowing. As that game was won by a
comfortable margin the rooters felt no im
mediate concern for the prospects of tho
Gophers, but aa the Wisconsin game ap
proaches the Minnesota followers begin to
grow nervous over the outcome with their
Te ml little captain out of the game.
The ttudent body at the University of
Minnesota Is Intensely wrought up at the
failure of the railroads to grant reason
able rates to the game. Tn best rat that
has so far been offered la $11.20 for the
round trip In a day coach. There Is no
ehnnco cf a further reduction, and many a
har.l up student will be forced to remain at
home and give only his mental support to
the team. In spite of the high rate to
MatlUon at least one, and possibly two,
special trains will be run to the Wisconsin
ear Hal Friday night
Minnesota rooters and players arc op
timistic over the chances for victory. All
realise that the game will be a far more
serious affair than the game against Chi
cago, but the spirit shown by the team all
along. In iplte of all discouragements. Is
counted on to pull out a victory against
the boys of Coach Barry.
McCree, the powerful tackle who played
auch havoc wltn Stagg's much-touted line,
will In all probability be out of the game.
He tustalned a alight fracture of a small
bone In his right arm during practice this
week and although not Injured seriously It
Is thought that Williams will take no
chares and keep him on the side lines.
If tie will not be In shape by that time
l't It Oatrand, the veteran tackle and guard
of last year, will perhaps take his place.
It Is almost certain Pettljohn will play
quaiter and Jimmy Vidal will be the prob
able cheicj for "Petty's" place at left end.
Doane and Hastings Plve to Five at
End of First Half.
CRETE, Neb., Nov. 12.-(Speclal Tele
gram.) The game between Doane and
Hastings was called off at the end of the
first hajf, when the score stood 6 to 6. It
was a bad day for foot ball, with snow
and rain, and the field was covered with
slush three Inches deep. The teams were
about evenly matched. Doane was a little
superior In straight foot ball, but Hastings
was better in punting. Luke made the
touchdown for Doane by falling on the ball
within five yards of Hastings' line after
five yards had been given to Hastings to
punt out. Claybaugh made two sensational
runs, for Hastings, on of sixty yards,
when he was chased and brought down
by Enlow, land one of thirty yards that
resulted In a touchdown.
No goals were kicked. At the end of
the twenty-flv-mlnute half everybody
rushed to the gymnasium to seek protec
tion from the rain, and by mutual agree
ment the coaches called the game off. A
day was found too bad even for modern
foot ball, supposed to be played without
regard to weainer. Liineup:
ATLANTA. Ga., Nov. 12. -John Aiken, at
the wheel of a National "forty." lowered
another American track record at the
Speedway today. In a f-.trlous drive of
twenty miles, In every moment of which he
was closely pressed from behind, he set
the new msrk of 16:42.76. This Is 0:11.4
better than Oldfield's record at Indian
apolis. George Robinson at last was able to enter
a race and finish It. Yesterday and Tues
day ho started In several races, but never
lasted more than a lap 'or two. He spent
his time searching for some minute, elusive
defect which seemed to keep In hiding dur
ing practice only to bob up as soon as a
race was on.
The big blonde driver, smiling as he had
smiled all through his 111 luck, withdrew
from the twenty-mil handicap at the end
of the first mile, but came back grinning
and faced the wire in the ten-mile handi
cap, which he won In a hard drive over
Aiken and Harding, the latter In an Apper
son. In 7:47.7.
He promptly repeated this performance
In the ten-mils free-for-all handicap, al
though his time was slower 8:39.8.
Dlsbrow, In his Ranier, won the twenty-
mile handicap tn the elapsed time of
17:36.16, or 0:63.39 slower than Aiken's pace
In the slock car for that distance.
The 120-mlle stock chassis race started
with only four cars, a liulck "30," driven
by Chevrolet; a Marmon "32," with Har
roun at the wheel; Basle's Renault and
Joe Matson'a Chalmers-Detroit.
Entire Race Without Stop.
The Marmon car won the race, with the
Chalmers-Detroit second. Harroun's time
for the 120 miles was 1:49:26.04. His car
did not stop during the race. Matson was
six miles behind, the Renault, eighteen
miles behind and the Uuick the same. The
Renault got third place and the Bulck
fourth. Chevrolet's engine caught fire at
the beginning of his twenty-fifth mile and
he dropped behind. Summary: First, Mar
mon (Harroun) time, 1:49:26.4; second,
Chalmers-Detroit (Matson)' time, 1:67:22.92;
third, Renault (Basle) time, 2:09:10.2;
fourth, Bulck. (Chevrolet) time, 2:09:30.10.
In a motor cycle race of ten miles, Harry
Klebs won In 0:58:53.58. Dlsbrow, tn a Rain
ier, with a handicap of 0:02:46 won a
twenty-mile free-for-all handicap. Harroun
In a Marmon, was second and Stlllman
in another Marmon finished third.
Robertson Wins Free-f or-All,
George Robertson, in his Flat, starting
from scratch, won the ten-mile free-for-all
handicap by the fastest kind of driving.
He conceded an extreme 63 seconds, equal
to about a mile, to Dlsbrow (Ranier), and
came into the lead on the seventh mile.
Aiken, in a National, finished second and
Stlllman In a Marmon, third. On the third
mile Robertson passed Whalen in a Ma
theson and In the fifth and sixth miles he
remained next to last, but gaining on the
others. In the next two miles he success
ively forged ahead of Harroun's Marmon,
Stlllman's Marmon and Aiken's National.
The three leaders finished as follows:
Fiat, 8:39.8; National, 8:60.26; Marmon,

MEMPHIS. Aenn., Nov. 12-The exten
sion of the life of the National Association
of Minor Leagues of Professional Hasp
Pall clubs until September 6, 1921, and the
selection of Chicago as the next meeting
place were the principal features of the
closing session of the annual meeting of
the association here today. The National
Board of Arbitration will probably remain
here until Saturday disposing of tho large
number of car.es on Its calendar.
The National Association" made one or
two other changes In Its constitution con
cerning the signing of contracts, the pro
motion of the welfare of the players and
the punishment to be meted out to those
who fall to live up to their contracts or
violate their reserve clauses. Suggestions
concerning the flat drafting price from all
eagues and a change in the method of
classification were referred to the Na
tional board.
It was decided that the National board
should meet several days before the Na
tional association In the future and thus
clear up all the minor cases before the
big meeting Is started.
. Agreement la Renewed.
The committee on the .revision of the
constitution recommended that the Na
tional association renew the agreement for
ten years or until September 6, 1921. The
present agreement was entered Into at
Chicago on September 6. 1901, and was to
run for ten years, or until 1911. Some mem
bers were of the opinion thnt the agree
ment expired In 1910 and It was desired to
renew It this year rather than to take
any chances of some of the members
feeling that It expires next September.
President Norrls L. O'Neill of the West
ern league and W. H. Lucas of the North
west league voted against the renewal of
the agreement at this time, advancing the
theory that next year would be a better
time to do It. Both O'Neill and Lucas
stated they did not want It thought
they were against the renewal of the
agreement but that their negative vote was
simply a protest against the renewal at this
time.
Chicago was awarded the next annual
meeting of the association over Louisville.
The vote on the question was nine for
Chicago, five for Louisville, two for Rock
Island and one for New York. The cam
paign for Chicago was led by President
O'Neill of the Western league. Several
members were In favor of holding the

Light scrimmage for defensive practice
marked practically the final preparation
for the Ames game Saturday, when low

since the memorable game on State field

The candidates for guard and center were
lined up against one another and with a few

With the rival candidates working against
one another the scrimmage was fast and
furious, but the showing of the linesmen
did not please the coaches and great fears

There Is little resembling optimism In

meeting In a minor league city, but the
crntrel location of Chicago won the battle.
ti'Nelll voted the proxies of J. Cal Ewlng.
president of the racifle Coast league and
Frank Herman, president of the California
8 ate league for Chicago.
A resolution that the National association
do all In Its power to advance the welfare
of the players was adopted.
Stit Contract Rale.
A rulo providing that players must be
under contract before they can play a
game with a club was also adopted. For
merly the time allowed to a player to sign
a contract varied from seven to fifteen
days or g.tmes.
it was also decided to follow In th wake
of the major leagues In the punishment of
contract and reserve Jumpers. The new
rule provides a suspension of five years
for breaking a contract and three years
for violating a reserve.
Furman Smith of the Carolina associa
tion, advocated tho adoption of a flat
drafting price from the four classes of
leagues and the matter was referred to th
National board for action, the Idea being
that If a player from a Class D league Is
considered worthy of draft by a major
league club then he Is worth as much to
that club as a Class A player.
A. D. Heins of the Roanoke, Va, league
club asked that the classification of a
league be based upon average population
of its circuit. The question was referred
to th National board. Heine advanced the
theory that the present rule did not do
Justice to leagues having only four or six
clubs In their circuits.
Following Is the present basis of classi
fication and that proposed.

LANE FAVORS NAMING
STALWART CANDIDATE
South Dakota Republican TaLka Con
cerninu Next Race for Nomi
nation of Governor.
MITCHELL, S. D., Nov. 12. (Special.)
Thomas W. Lane, one of the wheel-horses
of the stalwart faction, and the first man
to organize a Taft club In the state shortly
after the president's candidacy was pro
jected, and which acted as an Incentive for
other Taft clubs to be organized, Is out
spoken for a stalwart candidate for gov
error.
"The republicans of the state," said Mr,
Lane, "are going to put up a ticket that
will be a winner in the primary election to
be held next summer, but I am speaking
simply my own views on the matter.
"For governor," continued Mr. Lane,
"there are two mighty strong men who can
win over tho other faction at the primary.
They are Samuel H. Elrod and Charles N.
Hcrrted, both of whom have served as
governor of the state, and are men whose
administrations are practically beyond the
pale of criticism. I am particularly in
favor of Sam Elrod, for he put up about
the best administration that the state has
eer had, and this Is no reflection on the
work of Mr. Herrled. Citizens of the state
have but to look at tho record of Mr. El
rod, with referenae to the taxes, to learn
what a splendid record he made, and he
cun duplicate it again. He is without ques
tion the logical candidate for the stalwart
faction.
"Governor Vessey will doubtlessly be a
candidate for renomlnation at the primary,
and while he Is a resident of my own
county, I do not feci called upon to re
nounce what I consider Is the best thing
for the state. The fact that he held but
one term does not have anything to do with
the situation, and should not have my in
fluence on the selection, for the reason
that the Insurgents did not take this Into
consideration when they put up Crawford
against him and then defeated him for the
nomination at the Sioux Falls convention."
Removing tho outward symptoms Is not all that Is necessary to our
