SPORTS IN AND OUT VIEWS OF AN EXPERT (CX-CAPTAIN RICHARDS POINTS OUT GOPHERS' WEAK SPOTS ARE NOT STRONG ON OEFEN3E Interesting Discussion by Famous Badgrer Player—Thinks Min nesota Is Vulnerable at Tackle. MADISON, Wis., Nov. 13.—One of the most interesting opinions on the outcome of the Minnesota-Wisconsin game comes form "Big" John Richards, of Wisconsin, who played fullback on the Badger teams every year from 1893 to 1896. inclusive, and captained the eleven in his last two years. He will be long remembered at Wisconsin as the hardest line bucker the Badgers ever had and one of their best all-round players and captains. Richards also row ed No. 5 on the 1894 -crew, and was on the track team for your years, where he made the record of 15 4-5 seconds In the high hurdles, which still stands as the Western mark in that event. He has watched Minnesota play two games this fall, and sizes up the situation in a letter written Sunday to a friend in Milwaukee. Speaking of the game, the Badger ex-captaln writes: "I am uncertain as to the outcome, but I am sure it will not be a fiasco like the Chicago-Wisconsin game of 1599. Min nesota is confident to a surprising degree. They are good, but I'm sure they can be beaten, and, contrary tc the general opin ion, I think they are weak on offense. Their defense is fine, except for a fast play outside of tackle, and they can't stop that; at least, when I have seen them they did not. Their men are huge and know a lot about their positions. They charge beautifully, bunch at the point of attack quickly and pile up against line plays in great style. "But they tackle around the ears, with one or two exceptions, 4nd their offense is lumbering. It is slow in forming, and it seems to me that, should our men go into the game fit and strong, they can stop them. Minnesota can stand more punishment than any team in the coun try." Mr. Richards has not seen Wisconsin play this fall, so he says nothing about the Badgers, but to anyone who has wit nessed their work the above, from so competent a critic, is highly relevant. No man in the West is more competent to judge a football team than the big ex captain. He knows Wisconsin's game from "A. to Z," and played on two teams that beat the Gophers, the 1894 and 1896 elevens. Besides this, he played in two losing games against Minnesota, and has never held them cheap. If his estimate of Minnesota's play is accurate, it throws a new light on the situation, for no one has yet had the temerity to raise a ques tion as to Minnesota's offense. The Gophers have been regarded as an aggressive team; an offense team par ex cellence. The suggestion that Minnesota is not strong against a fast play outside of tackle is encouraging to Wisconsin partisans, who have seen Cochems' and Larson's phenomenally fast dashes at that position. If this condition manifests itself in the Gophers' play Saturday, the big- crowd will see something that will make it happy. On the whole, the opinion given is re markably conservative, which accounts for its being given to the public, as it came in a personal letter. It is encour aging, yet Mr. Richards' friends remem bt-r him as an optimist, so his size-up of the situation will hardly make Wisconsin a very heavy favorite in the betting, it merely emphasizes the admitted closeness of the coming contest, and makes one degree happier the people who have their business already arranged so that they can leave it Saturday to go to Madison. "DOPE" SYSTEM AGAIN. TKe Way "Experts" Figure Wiscon sin Victory. A Chicago football expert figures Wis consin a winner next Saturday. He says that after the decisive defeat of lowa by Illinois, it becomes quite apparent that lowa has been greatly overestimated this year and last. The writer never agreed in landing the lowa team to the skies, as was done-.in 1899 and 1900. In 1599 lowa did nothing except tie Chicago in an early season practice game. Last year the Hawkeyes defeated Chicago and Michigan easily by one-sided scores, both losing teams being unusually weaic. And on this was built lowa's reputation. Illinois Is known this year not to be unusually strong—in fact, it cannot be classed as better than second-class, since North western defeated it handily. Illinois, by defeating lowa so decisively, would tend to show that Minnesota, too, has been overestimated, for the Gophers were able to defeat lowa by only three touchdowns. If Illinois could do so much better than Minnesota against lowa, it stands to rea son that Wisconsin ought to have a cinch next Saturday at Madison, and that Northwestern and Illinois both have a chance to beat the Giant Gophers. IMPORTAXT ATHLETIC MOVE. Colleslntes to Form Alliances With A. A. V. CHICAGO, Nov. 13.—An alliance be tween the Intercollegiate Conference Athletic association and the Amateur Athletic union, it is said, may be the next thing on the programme. Since the acquittal of Merrill, the Beloit football star, a few weeks ago by the A. A. U., and the more recent decision against Wil liams, of lowa, by the conference, the authorities have been figuring on some arrangement that would allow the deci sions of the intercollegiate association and the athletic union to be formally recognized by each other. Negotiations to this end have been car ried on for some time by the A. A. U. The managing committee of the I. C. A. Pickwick Whiskey deserves'its popularity. A High grade Stimulant. I i *.*\ D&~Z«wnneapous y*"""V S-50NS A. will doubtless take action on the mat ter at its meeting, which will probably be called this week. The alliance would have the venerable precedent of that entered into by the defunct Western Intercollegiate Athletic association. The old agreement proved useful to each party, and it is considered likely that the managing committee will follow the example. The A. A. U. is anxious to have the col legians take the step. A letter receiv ed by President Bates of the Conference association from President Liginger of the A. A. U. is to this effect. The col lege men are notified that it would be their privilege to send four delegates to the national meeting to be held in New York in a few weeks. Elements in both associations have for some time been of the opinion that ati agreement between them would be ad vantageous, and the recent trials of col. lege athletes have called attention more sharply to the contention. The case of Merrill, of Beloit, was of great influ ence in the case. Merrill was discharged by the A. A. U. If Merrill had been de clared guilty of a breach of amateur rules the present tacit agreement be tween the two organizations might have proved insufficient and the conference men and the A. A. U. might have been brought into conflict. The collegians might have considered Merrill had been unjustly condemned. While the matter passed away pleas antly enough, yet it was seen that some better understanding might be advanta geous. The recent meeting of the facul ty representatives of the conference gave the opportunity, and President Bates, of the Intercollegiate Conference associa tion, broached the subject to Chairman Pattengill, of the factulty conference. The latter expressed himself as in favor of the plan. The alliance, however, will not go through without more or less of a con test. Not all .of the managing committee of the association are in favor of the plan. Some believe that it would cripple the usefulness of the college organiza tion to have it bound to the rules of the other body. THREE* FAVORITES WON In Closing Day Races at Lakeside Track. CHICAGO, Nov. 13.—Lakeside closed the local racing season today with the best card it has had during the fifteen day meeting.

W: LORIMER IS PRESIDENT Raspberry Island Location to Be Abandoned—Two Sites for New Club House Are Beinu Considered. St. Paul curlers will either boast of a strong representation in the Northwest •ern Curlers' association this season or the St Paul Curling club will be dis banded. All this was practically decided JEFFRIES AND RUHLIN IN FIGHTING POSES. at the annual meeting 1 of the club held last night in the Windsor hotel. While this announcement has a gloomy sound there is but little promise for the death announcement of the club. Condi tions responsible for the decline of the organization are to be removed, if pos sible, and if they are removed thei. -the St. Paul club will have the strong repre sentation in the Northwestern associa tion that is desired, and before the sea son is over will have a crowded mem bership list. The meeting was called for the pur pose of electing officers and discussing the plans for the coming season. W. W. Lorimer was unanimously chosen as pres ident, E. J. Murpihy as vice president, M. A. Beckman as treasurer, Frank Mc- Carthy as secretary, and Rev. A. B. Mel drum as chaplain. For many years the club rinks have been located on Raspberry island. This season the club will have a new location or there will be no club. The old loca tion is blamed for the decline of the club. An out-of-the-way place, only reached with difficulty, curling enthusi asts refused to attend, the matches, and the club officials could not arouse inter est. Now the club's lease has expired and the members intend to secure a more fa vorable location. At the meeting last j night President Lorimer, L. Defiel and T. Cameron were named as a committee on location, and this committee will b= ex pected to report at the next meeting of the club, to be held next Wednesday night. ' Prospects Are Bright. Two sites are being considered by the curlers, and if either one of these is se lected the club will erect a three-sheet rink club house. The location of the sites will not bs made public until some definite agreement is reached by the club. The club expects to expend at least $2,000 in this final attempt to re vive the interest in curling. Seen after the meeting. Secretary Mc- Carthy said that the prospects for a good season were the brightest. "With the old location on our hands," he said, "the club was continually on the decline. We could not coax men to climb down the long steps to the rinks, and our membership dropped gradually from in the neighborhood of 200 to some 25 or 30. j With the few members left we intend to start a revival of the Interest in curling. We are through with the old location, and now we intend to build our new rinks where they can be reached without trouble. Once this is done I firmly be lieve that we will again work up to a large membership and have one of the best clubs in the country." All of the curlers attending the meet ing last night believe with Mr. McCarthy that the club is to have a successful sea son, and after concluding the discussion of plans, the scheduled matches of the season wore taken up. This year the annual bonEpiel of the Northwestern Curlers' association will be held at Duluth during the week of Jan. 13, and the St. Paul curlers intend to I send a rink to this bonspiel as well as to the other bonspiels that will bring back trophies. Last year the St. Paul rink, playing at the Winnipeg bonspiel, was handicapped by the absence of It. H. Dur.bar. This year Dunbar will accompany the rink, and the invincible curler declares that if the St. Paul rink does not return from the big bonspiel with two or more troph ies he will permit his friends to "call him a Dutchman." Athletic Unions to Combine. MILWAUKEE, Wis., Nov. 13—Accord ing to President Walter H. Liginger, of the CfentraJ Association Amateur Athletic union, the proposed alliance between the Amateur Athletic union and the Intercol legiate Athletic association will probably be effected at the annual meeting of the Amateur Athletic union, which will be held in New York in January.

SPEARS WAS EASY MINNEAPOLIS CRACK BILLIARDIST EASILY BEATEN BY PETER SON, OF FARGO CLOW LOSES AT DULTTTH Mill City Sports Lose Heavily by Backing: Tbeir Man — Hat ley Now in First Place. Special to Til* Globe. FARGO, N. D., Nov. 13.—George Spear, Minneapolis' crack billiardist, was an easy victim to the* fast playing of Peterson, of Fargo, in tonight's play of the Northwestern billiard tournament. The Fargoan ran out in thirty-nine inn ings, with Spear at 188. Peterson played better than -during the first two nights against Clow and Hatley, while Spe-vr could not catQh the table and appeared nervous. He was two ahead at the end of the first inning, and after that was hopelessly behind throughout the game. His high runs were 27 and 29, and tuose of Peterson 54 and 35. There was considerable money up on the contest, Minneapolis sports having sent up $500 last week on Spear, which the Fargoans covered, together with all that has showed up since. At times Spear seemed to. get the table for a few minutes and did some of the brilliant work for which he is noted, but on the whole his play was In decidedly bad form. He promises to get even when he and Peterson meet in Minneapolis. Peterson's work tonight was marked by steadiness rather than brilliancy, though some of his shots were extremely difficult. Peterson's winning tonight makes him two ■won and one lost, he hav ing defeated Clow and Spear and lost to Hatley. Hatley's victory at Duluth tonight places him with two victories and no defeats, while Clow has a> pair of de feats. Peterson and Spear left on to night's train for Duluth, where Peterson plays Hatley tomorrow night. Tonight's score by innings: Peterson—3 6, 2, 2, 1, 1, 3, 35, 19, 1, 1, 12. 14, 5, 11, 1, 3, 4, 6, 6, 0, 3, 5, 8, 2, 15.19, 7, 11 13, 1, 0. 0, 1, 1, 54, 7, 13, 4. Total, 300.

Special to The Globe. DULUTH, Minn., Nov. 13.—Charles Clow, the St. Paul billiardist, was easily defeated by W. F. Hatley, of Duluth, tonight in the third series of games in the Northwestern tournament by a score cf 300 to 155. Thirty innings sufficed for Hatley to make his points. The playing, however, was somewhat listless and erratic,' the long ride from Fargo last night having tired out both men. Difficult shots would be made with apparent ease, then they would fall down on simple ones. The Duluth man took a brace in the twenty-fifth inning, how ever, and made a pretty run of eighty five, which is high run in the series up to date. His average was ten, corres ponding with that mare at Fargo. Clowes 'highest run tonight was thirty, made In the third inning. His average was a frac tion over five. Score by innings: Hatley—Q. 1, 19, 0, 4, 4, 2, 3, 0, 2, 9, 0, 21, 1, 1, 0, 3, 0,^36, 0, 11, 7, 0, 16, 85, 12, 24, 3, 29, 8. Total, 300. Clow—6, 2, 30, 4, 0, 3, 6, 0, 0, 0, 9, 0, 9, 6, 7, 2, 4, 0, 2, 4, 5, 5, 0. 0, 1, 2, 6, 0, 22, 2, Total, 155. The contest took place at the St. Louis hotel billiard rooms and a large crowd was present. The consensus of opinion here as to the final result of the tourna ment is Hatley first, then Peterson, Clow and Spears, respectively. Tonight Hatley will meet Peterson again and tomorrow Spears.

HEIDELBERG: MEDICAL INSTITUTE, Fifth s^i.^,^; --;:"■•;. Hours—Dally, Ba. m.to Bp. m. Sundays, 5 a. m. toi p. Nt will not be known until after midnight. It will probably be after 1 o'clock, Pa cific time, when the men enter the ring. S. Ferretl, of Chicago, who has Billy Rctchford, Hugo Kelly and others under his wing, wants to match Rotchford against the winner of the Sayers-O'Keefe bout. A pole ninety feet in height will sport Pittsburgh first baseball pennant. The pole will be of steel, and will be sunk to a depth of five feet in a bed of con crete. Among the championship favorites who have been defeated were: Sullivan, when he fought Corbett; Corbett, when he fought Fitzsimmons; Fitzsimmons, when he fought Jeffries. Billy Phelan, of Chicago, has Charlie Mason, the little featherweight who went against McGovern twice, in tow again and wants to match him against some good 105 to 115 man. Abe Attell and George Dixon are to meet in St. Louis for the fourth time Nov. 25. Their first two meetings were draws and Attell was called the winner of the third match. Hahn holds the season's strike-out rec ord with sixteen and twelve respectively in nineteen games. Tannehill, Chesbro, Waddell and Hughes, of Chicago, come nexc with eleven each. Casper Leon is in Buffalo looking for fights with some of the featherweights. He is likely to be" matched with Johnny O'Donnell, a promising Buffalo boy, be fore the Fort Erie club. George Harper, the old slab man, who is umpiring on the coast at the present time, says that Matt Kilroy was the greatest pitcher catching runners off at first base that he ever saw. Jack Grady, the clever 124-pounder from Montreal, wants to meet any man of his weight. His hard battles in Chi cago with some of the best men there stamps him as a good one. The New Tork Baseball club is not go ing to be sold. A story that a syndicate of Chicagoans, including, the Spalding brothers, is to buy it out was denied by President Andrew Freedman. The heavy betting men of the country are a unit in offering to back Jeffries to defeat Ruhlin. They say that Jeffries is an ideal man to carry their money be cause he takes few chances. Says the Washington Post: "Joe Quinn has played on nine championship teams one in St. Louis, five in Boston and three in Baltimore." Joseph's experience in this iegard is probably a record. Kid Sayers, the featherweight, defeat ed "Spider" Garrity, of Ohicago, in three rounds at St. Louis Saturday night. The Chicago lad was not in the same class with Sayers, the latter making Mm look like a novice. The Brooklyn club is looking for a soft berth for Pitcher BUI Kennedy. There is every indication tnat he will be dropped before another season rolls around, but an effort will .be made to place him ad vantageously. Jack Dougherty, the Racine boxer, has placed himself under the management of Charlie Newton. Dougherty has been coming to the front of late and if han dled carefully should make his mark with the best in his class. Little Jack Homer, who, with ninety pounds on his back, outsprinted such fly ers as Burnie Bunton, Money Muss and other's, was trained especially for the race by Jack Keene, owner of the grand campaigner, Braw Lad. Terry McGovern will close his theatri. cal engagement for the time being next Saturday night, and then journey to Hartford, Conn., where he. is scheduled to meet "Young Corbett" on the after noon of Thanksgiving day. Dan McLeod, the California wrestler, has agreed to throw Ed Atherton, oi Buffalo, five times in an hour for $250 a side and the gate receipts, the winner to take all. The match is to be decided in Buffalo Friday night. Dexter, of the Chicagos, has more field ing averages than any other player in thtf league. He played more than fif teen games in the outfield, at third base and behind the bat. Quite a number of players secured two averages. It is hard to make Jim Jeffries under stand that Bob Fitzsimmons has really retired from the roped arena and still harder to make him understand that James J. Cbrbett really wants to fight him again for the championship. Joe Walcott will put up his first fight in the East in over a year at Wilming ton. Del., on Nov. 15. He will meet Jack Bonner, the coal miner from Sum mit Hill, Pa., in a fifteen-round battle be fore the Wilmington Athletic club. Tom "Williams, the well known Aus tralian boxer, is out with a challenge to meet any 145 or 150-pound man in the country. He has been in harness a num ber of years, but thinks he can still hold his end up with any of the welterweights. Now the American league, with the downfall of Tammany, is counting upon breaking into Gotham. Ban Johnson is all agog over the chance of having New York added to the circuit, and states that every effort will be made to place a club in that city. Selee says he has no use for men who will sign two contracts, and is in sympa thy with President Hart, of the Chicago club, who is willing to pay for what play ers he takes, from the minor leagues, and wants nothing but men with clean repu tations on the team. Frank Selee says there is no truth in the story going the rounds that he is after Elberfeld of the Detroit club for the reason that Elberfeld has signed for next season, and he had not dropped to the standard of a manager trying to get players to jump contracts. President Shearer, of the Montreal club. Is on record as saying that unless money could be raised his outfit would retire from the Eastern league. The Pat Powers organization certainly had a troublesome six months the past season, and more than one of the cities fell by. the wayside. The Terre Haute Baseball association has signed Leon Walters, the former pitcher for Grand Rapids, to succeed Krieg as manager next season. He was second baseman and captain last season, and will continue at second, it being the purpose of the management to have a playing manager instead of one on the bench. Frank Hahn, the crack southpaw of the Cincinnati club, has signed a con tract to pitdh for the Reds next season. Hahn will receive one of the highest sal aries paid to a National leagne player. his contract calling for $4,200. Hahn Is wanted badly by two American league clubs, and this fact enabled him to secure the princely salary he signed for. Joe Qantillon, of Ban Johnson's staff of ursflires, is organizing a team of American leaguers to spend December in California. He is counting upon form ing the following team: Sullivan, catch er; Bernhard, Mercer and Callahan, pitchers; Davis, first base; Lajole, second base; Bradley, third base; Irwin short stop; "Lefty" Davis, left field; Jimmy Barrett, center field, and Pickering, right field. Tom O'Rourke is out in an interview with the statement there will be a reviv al of boxing in New York state early next year, as he has "information" that the legislature will pass a bill legalizing lim ited round contests. This announcement has been made before, but this time it is supposed to have foundation in fact, coming as it does from the supposed-to be-well-informed O'Rourke. President Ban Johnson, of the Ameri can league, returned to Chicago from De troit well satisfied that the baseball entanglement at the Michigan city would 5 soon right itself. It is apparent from the information* that the Detroit ball club will be in good hands next season. S. F. Angus, the street car magnate, who holds the majority of the stock as col lateral, is willing to take the presidency of the club himself, or to sell to President Burns. The time for filing applications for tickets to the annual game between An napolis and West Point closed Saturday, and the demand for pasteboards to sea the soldiers and sailors at Uncle Sam> academies is as heavy as usual. This means that there are three or four times as many applications as there are seats. The game will be played at Philadelphia on Nov. 30, and in view of the strength of the two teams this season it should prove unusually interesting. Manager Hanlon is as emphatic in denying the story that his team would be moved to Washington as ever he was. The Brooklyn club has too much money invested where it is to think of moving. Two matches, in both of which' Chi cago fighters will be the participants, have been arranged by the Olympic club, of St. Louis. Saturday night Maurice Rauch and Billy Rotchford are to meet in a fifteen-round contest, and a week later Eddie Santry and Ole Olson will furnish the sport. Danny Dougherty, of Philadelphia, Terry McGovern's sparring partner, waa knocked out Monday night in the second round of what was to have been a fifteen round bout by Harry Forbes, of Chicago. Harry Stout, manager of Otto Sieloff, stated that he would at once acecpt th« terms offered by a Wlscofisin club ol a purse of $500 for a match between Sie loff and Martin Duffy, the money to b« divided, $400 to the winner and $100 to the loser. Stout wants the fight to b« at 135 pounds ringside. Gresham Poe, the last of the present generation of football players in the fam ily, is having a hard time of it in keep ing up the reputation of his brothers. He has the ability to play football pos sessed by the rest of the family all right, but is gaining a reputation for being un lucky. He has been injured-several timea in practice, and on this account haa never had a chance to try for the 'varsity eleven. He is now a Princeton senior, and may yet make good if his luck takes a turn for the better, as his work is ad mitted by the coaches to be up to the 'varsity standard. George Siler has lost his position as referee of the West End Athletic club of St. Louis. Manager Haughton explains that he has secured Joe Stewart, a local man, for the place, as he does not ear« to have to depend upon Chicago for aa official. There was considerable complain! there over several decisions made by* Siler. Especially was this the case Iff the Dixon-Attell and Forbes-Attell lights. Jack McKenna, manager of Attell, writes that' Siler permitted Forbes to use all sorts of foul tactics, which not only lost the chances of victory for Attell, but came near ending his ring career. "Win" Mercer, the former Wg leaguer, and a member of Jimmy Manning's twirl- Ing staff at Washington city the past season, is the latest player reported for a position under Charley Comiskey in 1902. Mercer was with the big league barn-storming team, which reached St. Louis the past week from the far South. While many of the players laid over Irr the city for a visit. Mercer went straight through to Chicago, and was in confer, once with Johnson and Comlskey all day Thursday. He admitted that he had been made a tempting offer to join the White Stockings, and that if he oan secure his release from Washington he wili make the switch. Matthews, of Harvard, is not the first colored man \ who has come I out : of- An dover and been : a good football : player. George Chadwell, "of the class of 1900 -? at -Williams, was a first-class: end, one who, it is thought, would , have been good enough for the 'varsity team had he en-' tered one ;of ~: the ' bigger =* colleges.. *Ha ' played four years at Williams, and -was a fast, aggressive and t sportsmanlike player,: in fact, a capable all-around r end.
