Tha moat Important of the proceedings will ba tha exchanging of players and the settlement of tha franchise question. Clubs which for some yeara have been somewhat backward are expected to' take a livelier Interest In tha business this season and the usual number of new players will be on band. In tha franchise question the Im portant Issue Is tha signing of the ten year contract which rrtany of them came to this year and which waa the source of much trouble and bickering- at the Memphis meeting last year. The four league which have yat to sign are the Western league, American association. Eastern league and Pacific Coast league. Tho Western league Is partly In and partly out. some of the teams having signed and some not. The dispute orer which the ball owners are having tha most trouble Is. the one con cerning the time tha former ten-year fran chise contract ran out Home assert No vember. 1S10, was the closing date and this year Is the time, others dispute this and state that the time Is ona year later No vember; 1911. ' ' Representing the Omaha Base Hall club will be the president, W. A. Rourke, and the manager . of the team. Hill Schlpke. Jtourka states that he Is unahls to state what changes win be made In the Omaha players until he sees what the other owners have to offer In Chicago. Instead of having tha twenty-eight play ers who closed the season of WO, there will be but eighteen or nineteen when the call comes In the spring for the Omaha team to turn out for practice. . Rourke atatea that seven of the players will be let go and that one or two others wll not show up In the spring, making the number dwindle by ten. Otherwise, unless he thinks that he can materially benefit the fighting strength of Omaha by trading or buying new players the old team will play In 1911. Prior to the meeting of all the clubs on the 1Mb, the Western league men will hold a meeting on November 12 to settle ques tions of league base ball at home. W. A. lloiirke, Frank lsbell, and J. a. Hlgglns will hold tha annual directors' meeting and a meeting of all the presidents of the clubs follows. The question of Topeka In the Iiugue will conir up at that time. It Is understood that the Commercial olub of Topeka la anxious to keep a team In the Western league and all the arranrementa ' xre lined up to that effect. "I can't predict what will happen at the big meetings," said Rourke. "There's all kind of things to come up and now is the time to settle many things that have been wrong In base ball. I think there wilt be t number of interesting developments that will Interest the fans." BOXING BOUT AT SOUTH OMAHA Tommy Brrmaksa to Meet Pbll Klna; Wedaesday 7lb for Me tres) Kaiuili.

Creighton meets the Highland Park I eleven Saturday for their annual game. Heretofore tha locals have' had little dif ficulty In downing this aggregation, but reports from Dea Moines lately are to the effect the warriors of that Institution have a fast, hard-fighting bunch. Creighton Is rather Jubilant over the game last week, la which they held the Aggies to a small score. Considering that the farmers have one of the best and fast est teams In this section of the country, the local lads are proud of their work on the gridiron. The Kausans were com mended frequently by the spectators for the wonderful rapidity In which their formations were played, and they were by far the speediest team that has appeared on the local field this season. Miller's men showed a wonderful improvement In form over the preceding weeks, and It Is safe to predict that the Highland Park game will be full of surprises for the lowana. The Rlue and White Is somewhat handicapped fur ends for next Saturday's struggle. With Haller and Hoye out tern- j porartly. Miller may have to develop some of the se.-ond team men for the positions. Mc.N'Ichola and Hefferman are likely ma lt rial, but the latter Is euffeilnii fiom a severe wrenched shoulder.

As the formations would change, Reed said that he was to note the posi tion taken by each man.

The excursion Is progressing nicely and estimates are. made that close to 4(i0 students will accompany the team on the Invasion of Jayhawker land.
