Ind., Sunday, Nov. 7, for the annual winter business session. To flat®, there are eight avowed candidates, that Is, If Louis Heilbroner, the present hiffh chief, Is seriously considered. From where we eit, we cant grlvo Louis H. a lookin.
Mike Sexton, of Rock Island, I1L, has already made It known that he Is after the job. Mike is president of the National Association of Professional Baseball Olubs and Is one of the smartest baseball men in the country, A. L. Tearney, president of the Three-I leag-ae, is also after the job. Tearney Is '"n rltfht" with the big guns of baseball and should be a capable successor
rltfht" with the big guns of base-
to Louis Heilbroner. Harry Stahlhafer, owner
of the
Bransville Central league club, Is the
of more than one club owner
and may be ohoaen. If so, the Eva rnoffirl intends selling his Interests In
Bvansville club and giving hia undivided attention to the league's welfare.
It
la believed that
Beggs,
of
Pres.
Webb
the Highlands, will support
Stahlhafer although the local magnate thinks well of Tearney as a baseball leader.
Other candidates are William BJarle. scout for the Pittsburgh National league club Emerson Dickerson, of Grand Rapids, Mich., former president of the Michigan State league Charles Frank, former president or the Southern Michigan league, and Robert Qulnn, business manager of the Columbus A. A. club.
Pres. Webb Beggs will represent Terre Haute at the Evansvllle meeting. "Lefty" Gilbert will likely accompany the Highlander boss to the downstate ar.d It may be that several of,the directors will be In "at the killing."

DRIGGS.
FTUNCETON, N. Y„ Oct 29.—In the strugglle at Princeton, on November 6, one thing may favor the Tigers. The Harvard attack is 'primarily built around Mahan. At least, the attack is most effective for long gains when ho is carrying the ball. Princeton, on the other hand, for once has more than one dangerous man in the backfleld. The Cambridge players cannot afford to devote their entire attention to covering Tibbott, as they did Pendleton and Baker. Glick, Shea and Driggs are all dangerous men when they are toting the pigskin.

the offense and have defended their stations well against a running attach. While they usually get down the iield on punts, however, and while Highly has shown some good tackling, both he and Brown must improve vastly in this respect If they expect to keep Mahan from bringing the ball back and thus neutralizing imuch of the kicking ability shown by Driggs. Of course the latter will endftavor to either keep the ball away from Mahan or kick it over nis head, but neither of these things is always easy to do. If a man continually kicks out of bounds in an effort to hold ground gained he not only loses distance, but rotos his team of the possible chance of recovering a funvMed ball. No, the Tiger ends must learn to tackle more fiercely and more surely.
Foderal leaguers and representatives of organized ball held in Philadelphia during the world's scries. "Should any eleventh hour event spoil the plans for peace, Harry Sinclair of the Newark club will go ahead with his pla.ns to put a team in New York," said Weeghman, "and the Federal league is prepared to go ahead with the 1916 schedule."
It was said that the whole question of peace hinges on the sale of the New York Nationals to Sinclair and certain papers said today that the sale which would Include the team and the lease of the grand stand, would involve about ?2,000,000. A sum in the neighborhood of that amount has been practically agreed upon, according to an officer of the Chicago Federals.

WELD LOOKS FOR
North Enders Determined, However, to Defeat Linton At Rose Held Tomorrow.
By Henry J. West.
Garfield high football warriors are expecting one of the hardest battles of the season Saturday when they meet the Linton eleven at Rose field. Despite the fact that the down-staters are exacted to t'e stronger than ever tomorrow, the north-enders are counting on downing them, but not without a tussle.
It will be the case o* a heavy, plunging team against a lighter and jfaster eleven, the "coal miners" averaging at least 3 60 pounds to the man, while the purple and white bunch will do good to come up to 145 pounds. For this reason, it is probably that Captain Hlcklin will use mostly open onlays rather than try to break through the bulky Linton vanguard. As to the dope, thfc blue and red gladiators have the edge on the locals. Linton piled up a 72 to 0 count against Jasonville, while Garfield registered 4 points against the same team.
Since the Robinson contest, Coach Clogston has been using several different 'lineups in the backfleld, in order to get around some faulty playing which showel up at the Illinois burg. Harris has been running at left half, Instead of Farmer, and Van Horn, a new recruit to the squad, has been doing well at fullback, in Brophey's place.
The lineup will probably be: Gammon and Canine, ends Wilson and Shea, tackles DePugh and Perkins, guards Pcnce. center Hicklin, quarter Nash and Harris, halfbacks Van Horn, fullback. "Ivootsle" Lammers will referee the contost, which will start a 2:30 -"'clock. All this week there has been /ell practice at the north-end school and there will be at least a good deal: of spirit eliown on the sidelines tomorrow.
INDIANA IS "ALL SET"
BLOOMINGTON. Ind., Oct. 29.—With four coaches on the job, individual instruction was given the Indiana varsity last night in the last practice of the week on the home field before the Journey to Indianapolis today. In a special car t^ie entire squad of more than fifty wilh coacliers, trainers and physicians departed at 8:20 o'clock and was to arrive in Indianapolis over the Vandalia at 3 0:30 o'clock. The big crimson squad was to head for Washington park, where practice was to be held.
Last night Coachcs Childs and Thorpe were assisted by Kimball and Coleman, the latter playing the varsity end in '11 and *12. Coleman took the ends and worked with them more than an hour, while Kimball had the guards and tackles. Thorpe had the kickers trying out punts, drop and place kicks, while Clillds spent much time with the line men. Childs and Kimball also conducted a long drill at hitting the tackling dummy. Every man on the squad is In good condition, full of "pep" and eager for the Washington and Leo fray to start.
Notre Dame Expects Hard Fray Saturday
NOTRE DAME, Ind., Oct. 29.—Coach Hat-pcr said today he loo.ks forward to a hard game with the South Dakota Coyotes here Saturday. The Coyote3 were beaten, 19 to 0, by Minnesota early in the season, but are believed to haA'e improved rapidly since, and are expected to put up their best game against the Gold and Blue. They will arrive here this afternoon and will take a workout on Cartier field behind closed gates.
Harper has not yet decided on his opening lineup, but said he expected to send In all his regulars except O'Donnell. Every member of the varsity reported for practice yesterday afternoon, and all were in fair condition. Fitzgerald will be played at center and Jerry Jones will take up the captain's place at right guard. If the varsity is able to count consistently on South Dakota the substitutes will be used as much as possible in the second half.
Wabash Wants a Clean Slate for the Season
CRA\VFORDSVILLE, Ind., Oct. 29.— "Not a game lost this season" is the big Idea which possesses every Wabash man right now. The Little Giants have gone thus far In the year's schedule undefeated, In spite of the faot that their two hardest games—thoso with Purdue and Washington—are behind them.

Oct. 30—Butler at Indianapolis. Nov. 6—Northwestern college at Crawfordsvllle.
Nov. 1 3—Enrlham at Richmond. Nov. 20.—DoPauw at Indianapolis. No rr-gulars were bruised up badly ir. the Franklin game, and the men all arc fit for the fray with Butler at Indianapolis Saturday.

Hurt in Football lilt
WARSAW, Ind., Oct. 29.—Billy Sunday. Jr., lies at his home at Winona Lake with a broken leg. The accident occurred yesterday afternoon while young Sunday was playing football at Winona, He 1B 15 years old, With his father. Evangelist Billy Sunday, as an interested spectator, the younger bundle of energy tucked the pigskin under his arm and f&ught his way through the opposing players for a long run. The play brought the ball olose to the opponents' goal, and as his admiring sire voiced approval from thH side line, young Sunday again took the ball for a plunge through the line. H* carried the ball across for the score that won the game, but at the expense of a broken leg. "That's all right Billy, you trimmed them up," and similar words of encouragement came from the elder Sunday as he assisted in carrying the lad off the field,
