Indianapolis made good again to-night by outplaying Wodtke's five with apparent ease. Coggshall blanketed the Dutchman at every stage of the play whn effectiveness on the part of the latter seemed imminent. Pierce was frequently applauded and Bannon was there with the goods.

MeGilvray and Pierce were fast as rushes and seemed to have little trouble in delivering the ball to Maliory. Gardner and Miller put up a strong defense and Craig, who was in for Mercer, made the best showing yet for the new player.

When Mr. Johnson was asked what he proposed to do in the controversy over the changing of dates by the National League after the schedules had been adopted, he said he intended to fight the matter to the end. The American League president said he had a conference with Dreyfus and Mr. Herrmann at which he accused Mr. Dreyfus of changing the National Dengue dates after they h:id been adopted by the joint schedule committees.

"I propose to take the matter up with Chairman Hart, of the joint schedule committee. Failing to come to any satisfactory understanding with him 1 purpose taking it up with Mr. Herrmann, as ehairman of the national commission. In the event that Mr. Herrmann and I cannot agree I will consider myself absolved from any further obligations to the National League. Then the American League playing dates will be readjusted to suit the best interests of the organization." Mr. Johnson left for Washington to-night. Y. M. C. A.

March 7 Professor Waldo, of Purdue, who is arbiter of Western college athletic disputes, has decided that Indiana Normal owes a forfeit of $5 to Eastern Illinois Normal for failure to keep the engagement for two football games last fall. Professor Kimmell, of Indiana Normal, says the award was made on a technicality and that other colleges which had scheduled games with Indiana Normal made no claim for the forfeit money. The Indiana' Normal football team disbanded before the season fairly began hecause of the unexp-cted action of the captain, who was Induced to enter Indiana Fnlverslty and play on the eleven representing that Institution.
