I 5fiTR} ^s. BETTER WEATHER FOR FIELD WORK Nebraska, Chicago and Carlisle Cratnes in the Public Ey Just Now By O'Loughlln. Fuuibull is the uppermost topic in Minneapolis just now. The Ames game and the approaching contests with Nebraska, Chicago and Carlisle have sent lnt?rest booming, not only in Minne apolis, but thruout the state. The team started work for Nebraska last night in earnest, the favorable weather per mitting Dr. Williams to use the gridiron once more. Just "what transpired behind the walls is unknown, ail the gates were locked and only two or three spectators were permitted inside the enclosure. 'While thece will doubtless be a large crowd at the Nebraska game Saturday, the big move ment will be toward Chicago for the game of Nov. 10. The defeat of Nebraska bjr Ames will of course cut into the attendance Saturday to some extent, but many will go to watch the gophers more to see" what improvement has been made thru the week than with an idea of seeing Nebraska turn any startling trick. At that the men on the squad are not holding the cornhuskers at all cheaply, and realize that Nebraska will put fortl: every possible endeavor to hold the score lower than was the ease in the Ames game. They will try to show that Ames won more by luck than by form, and the rooters will want to see if this was the case. Nebraska is strong enough to need a lot of attention, and defeating Foster's men will not be a holiday affair. 1'iom this time on until 13le day of the Chi cago gamp real news of the team will be very caroe. Stags is putting hU men thru heavy paces at Chicago, and on Saturday Eckersall. Sca^jr and other members of the maroons will journey to Minneapolis to see the gophers against Nebraska. Both of the coaches, the best of the west, are putting forth their big endeavor for this game, and neither is going to take any chance of losing a point to th other thru any tipping. There is no spying of any kind between these teams, by agreement, but, as it is the big game of the mid-west this year, both coaches are anxious to win. It is a thoroly friendly rival ry, as Stagg and Dr. Williams are old college chums and collaborated in the authorship of one of the first real textbooks on football. Each has a wholasome respect fdr the strategy and eoaching ability of the other, and as a result each is concealing his hand asr -well as possible until tho day of the bfe game. I'rom Chicago today comes word that the prices for the game will be $8 for the best seats. Manager Reed this morning received Hckets for one whole stand at Marshall field, and the tickets will go on sale at the usual places tomorrow morning. From every indica tions there will be at least 8,000 to 10,000 gophers going to Chicago on Thursday and Fridiiv nights of next week, and the seat sale In Minneapolis will be brisk. The Minnesota "U" band will be taksn along and a tremen dous rooter excursion is on the boards. iThe railroads have granted a rate of one fare for the round trip, plus 50 cents, for all points within a. radius of 150 miles of Minneapolis for the Nebraska game. The rate to Chicago has been set at $6 and $S, but there is reason to be lieve that a much lower figure will be named before the week is over. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL. llarvev, N. D., Oct, 31.In a spectacular game of football the Harvey high school boys defeated the Carrlngton high school aggrega tion by a score "of 24 to 0. Every man on the Harvey team proved to be a star in his position and the result of the first game will go far to promote the athletic spirit in this section of the state. Loug end runs and the forcing of the Carrlngton team over their goal line tor a safety proved to tie the features of the game. kDE I N NEWYOftK GOPHERS SETTLEDOWN TO A HARD GRIND iamm Correct Clothes Wecfnes'day Evening, Made in NEW YORK Youn^ men, micklle-aged or old wild season after season wear BENJAMIN CLOTHES imbi ber far into the thousands.

It wet only H'cause of Attell's scientific handling of his man that he received, the decision. Baiter forced the fighting from the first to the fifteenth round. Had he followed these tactics during the next five rounds he would now be champion Baker by his clever manner of covering up saved^ himself much punishment. Baker used with great effect a straight left Jab, and connected mony.^tinies with Abe's face. Abe seemed un able Jo .block the Wow&. Attell's footwork was not up to his usual standard. Baker dtinrtri about the ring like a bantam rooster and kept his opponent guessing. Attell used stalling trctics during all of ihe clinches and was rn-ndly hissed. Kound nineteen opered with both men showing, a little stronger than in the previous rouuds. Baker covered up well and saved his strength until the end. In the twentieth Attell showed very weak and Baker landed five straight lefts to his jaw. At tifcj end of the round, as Ref eree Robinson declared Attell the winner, Baker threw up his arms and staggered to the ropes, and began sobbing like a baby. The crowd, which -vras -with Baker, hooted the decision.^ BEBGER FAVORITE OYER AL KAUFMAN Journal Special Service.

Ann Arbor, Mich.. Oct. 31.-Stiff scrimmaging on Ferry field for forty minutes yesterday after noon resulted in the scoring of eight touchdowns by the varsity, which played a consistent game every minuto of the time. Harry Hammond, who was out for the second time, was given his old place at end, and altho he lacks condi tion he showed up well. Another surprise sprung' by Yost was the placing of Bishop, who has been playing quarter, at the halfback position. He weighs scarcely 150 pounds. At quarter he was one of the best Michigan ever/had handling the ball and in running for long gains thru a field full of opposing plays. He is thought by many to have surpassed even tb great "Boss Weeks'' at that sort of work.' But he did not have the head that makes the field general, and for that reason Yost was forced to replace him with Workman. At half th ecoach hopes to take advantage of his speed a nddodging ability. He worked our well, considering the fact that he has had no experience in that position, but his weight may prevents his success, #1$ BEHIND 0LO8&X GA$S9V -$ !S STAGG WANTS TO PLAY MICHIGAN Can See No Reason Why Game Cannot Be Scheduled "Next Year. -is* Journal Special Service. Chicago, Oct. 31.Chicago and Michigan, kept apart this season by the faculty reform wave, will probably meet in 'football next year. Such Is the word given out last night bj.Coach Stagg. No definite move has.been made by either Uni versity for the renewal football relations, hut it is thought that by the time the 1907 schedules are made out all objections to the game will be waived, and that it will' again take its place in the big nine schedule. "I see no objection to Chicago's playing Michi gan, next year," said Mr. Stagg. "And I expect that we will play Michigan. I wanted to play them again' this year, and hope that arrangements can be made for the renewal of football relations by next fall." Dr. J. B. Eaycroft said he expects Chicago, and Michigan to resume their annual football games within the next two years at least. He says It is only a question as to how long it will take the intense rivalry,. because of .-which. the big games were suspended, to die down. For the first time this,year some of Stagg* regulars "cut" practice yesterday. Captain Eck ersall, Templeton Parry and 'Russell failed to report at any time during the afternoon prac tice, and as a result Stagg had to work with a crippled squad and was much put put at the! absence of his stars. The practice field was soggy and slippery, but nevertheless the Midway coach picked out a mixed team from the regulars and the scrubs and sent them against the freshmen for a hard scrimmage. They succeeded' in 4 Billiard Tourney*. In the West Hotel amateur billiard tourney lust night Preemont defeated Thayer toy one point, his score beins 200 to Thayer's .19!), thirty-six innings.

Tho first team scored half a dozen times in the hour, time, of course, being taken out for criticisms and teaching of the coaches. No man was spared in this. After the scrimmage prac tice, good hard signal work was had. KANSAS LOOSENS UP Puts in Two Ineligible Players for the Game with Cochem's Men. Journal Special Service. Lawrence, Kan., Oct. 31.At a meeting of the athletic board of the University of- Kansas it was decided to "loosen up" on the football rules for the game which is to be played' next Satur day with St. Louis university. By action of the board two ineligible players, Griggs and Eice, were given permission to play in Saturday's game, -provided the eligibility board will pass favorably on their qualifications as students. The action which has been taken probably will cause considerable comment in college athletic circles In the west, as Kansas heretofore has stood strongly for the strictest adherence to the rules and has been handicapped in contests with other colleges which were not so particular In this matter.

The Iowans were minus ."the services of Jeanson and Reppert, two of the really strong' players in the Ames line-up. Their absence unquestionably weakened the Ames team.

As long as the. two colleges agree on officials It is not the province of the committee to insist on appropriating other men to act. We want harmouy, and that is what we are striving to attain. So if one school wants a certain man to officiate and the other objects, .we are here for the purpose of straightening out the tangle. But If they can't agree, our appointments are official, as made by a body reate^. by..the conference, and every conference niembeir must abide hy that ruling." At Chicago- the sentiment is all opposed to jtne stand taken by Michigan of limiting the .officials to one umpire. Coach Stagg, who has been one of the leaders in the changes made in the rules this season, is enthusiastic over the doubleMimpire system, and he has been care ful to use it in both of his games. In the Purdue battle McCornack of Dartmouth and Hadden of Michigan were the umpires. In the Indiana game they were Goagland of Princeton and Snow of Michigan. VANDEEBILT WON Journal Special Service0.

South high is now negotiating with Duluth, and it is probable that tbe orange and black team will take them on after the East-Central game. Coach Ellis Is not letting up on hia men, and it is his Intentions to not only beat th* Mechanics Friday, but to run up a score large* than that of last year. While South should easily win her game of tha week, the East and North teams have a fight on their bands. The St Paul Centrals are stronger this year, than they .bare bees since* the time of O'Brien and Ligget, ild Coaeto Frykmau cannot do too much coaching this week in preparing his wards for the contest. Leam ington park has been chosen as the gridiron,' and the game will be called at 3 o'clock.
