Yankton S 1 Dec The championship of the South Dakota Intercollegiate Athletic asso ciation will not be settled this year There is no doubt that Vermillion universltv has the state football cnamplonship this jear, but as Vermillion is not in the S D. I A A that championship is still in dispute The game to decide this was to have been plaved at Mitchell Thanksgiving day between Yankton and Dakota Wesleyan, but the game was called off by the W 's onj account of the snowstorm Yankton lays no claim beyond the fact that If Yankton had defeated Dakota Wesleyan It would have Yankton's Coach Hyney had his men in good tiim and, judging from games played, it would have been a close rub. As the case now stands, Yankton and Mitchell will have to call it a draw, with Brookings next on the list.

Coach Stagg has not asked for the game, but declared that he would con sent to the trip If satisfactory arrangements can be made. The players are enthusiastic for the trans continental trip and are willing to play two games It necessary to pay the expenses for the trip. The University of Southern California has been trying to arrange a game with Chicago Mr several months, and if Stanford can be Induced to close a contract for a game the champion maroons will play two contests on the coast. The Chicago team will not be the same team that won the championship if the games are played. The men have broken training and will have a bard time getting back into shape for the games.

Yost has a long memory* and will robably tak revenge before another evening has rolled around. It is simply wonderful the amount of football reform demanded by the col leges whose teams have been foundly licked this year. All of the eastern sporting writers are picking all-eastern football teams and persisting in dubbing them All Amencan. It would do a lot of these dopes a great deal of good to travel west of Albany before they die. They fear to travel as far west as Chicago, having a dread of being hooked by a buffalo bull or being scalped by 8th In dian somewhere on Wabash avenue. The six-day bicycle riders in New York have been enjoying themselves by throwing wet sponges in the faces of spectators and squirting ehafged liquids at the seatholders, with the sizz pottles. They appear to be playful beasts. St. Paul papers, one of them at least, !8 getting considerably worried because the Minnesota football team does not employ a high-priced trainer, even going so far as to name a man who will ''probably" be chosen for the work. Minnesota has one of the best trainers MI the west combined with the coach. The gophers were not in bad physical condition the" Wisconsin game save thru such injuries and bruises as are incidental to the play and which no trainer, or twenty trainers, can prevent. In the Nebraska and Northwestern games, after recovery from sprained ankles and knees, the gophers were in splendid condition* right up to the notch, and played the fastest football ever seen on Northrop field. Minne sota is the most fortunate school in the west in possessing a coach who is a coach and trainer combined.

The decision states that these clubs would hfcve been fined $500 each had there been proof submitted to the national commission of an agreement between them that the Minneapolis clhb covered certain players for Ottumwa. ,The commission holds that the purchase or draft by a major league club takes precedence oyer a minor league arrangement. After say ing that the commission bad been asked by Mr. Watklns Of the Minneapolis club to make a finding, and narrating the circumstances, the decision says: "The miderslgned did not deem it necessary to call either upon the Detroit club 01! Ottumwa club for a statement In the case. The agreement ehteied into between the two club* could only annly tp the Ottumwa club at the close of the season and no others If the player in question had been legally sold to the Detioit club previous to this time, or had been drafted bv any otherteam or league club, the sale or draft must be held as a valid one because it would have been in accordance with section 6 or S of article 6 of the national agreement. The Detroit club having complied with the rules of the commission relative to the purchase of this player, the sale will stand. "We desire to call attention in this case to the suggestion made by the Ottumwa club to the Minneapolis club to cover certain players for them, and also the suggestion from the latter club with reference thereto, that if either one of these agreements had been entered into and proof thereof submitted to the commission a fine of $500 W011M have been imposed upon each of the oarties under the provision of the national agreement.Harry C Pulliam, August Her- mann."
