In other wordi, eneh team would be called oa to play 172 games, 18 more than the present season schedules call for. By eliminating th many open dates the Increased number of combats could be decided by the middle of October. Herrmann believes It will do away with practically all the scalping, inasmuch as the games will be' regarded in much the same light as those of the present league schedules.

The 0-game inter-league series would give Detroit, Washington and Cleveland an opportunity of seeing all the teams of the National league, which they do not have a chance of viewing now. Pittsburg, Cincinnati and Brooklyn would likewise be afforded opportunity of watching their teams play all the American league clubs. Each club would have to meet all the rivals la the opposing organization and the. world's championship would be decided on a percentage basis.

Basket ball Is being taken up in earnest again at the state college, since the sudden stopping ef the football season. Today the ath letic executive committee met and ser lected Lewis L. Hill of Livingston as manager of the boys team in place of Court a. Sheriff of Helena, who Is not in college this year. Mr.

Hill has en nounced that he will proceed at once to the arrangement of a schedule for the college quintette. It Is expected that two games will be played the university two with the Billings Triple Bs and, if possible, two with the school of mines. Other games will probably be placed on the schedule before long. The college expects to have a strong team (his year and hopes to again held the intercollegiate championship, as -it has done for the past six years. The men are obtaining con-dition under the direction of Coach Deckstader this week In cross-country running and will probably not begin work on the floor until the last of the month.

MANAGERIAL RUMOR. San Francisco, Nor. 8. That Harry Wolverton, manager of the Oakland team ef the Pacific Coast is be ing considered as a possible successor te Hal Chase in the leadership of the New Tork Americans, was the intimation conveyed in a letter received here by Bill Lenge, the old-time big leaguer, from Frank of the New Tork club. Farrell Is well acquainted with Woiverton's managerial capacity.

Wolverton has signed a contract with Oakland for 19U, but In the event of an offer from New Tork it Is believed the coft dub would not stand la nls war. II lT-J Oii I i the style of opponents, it Is not clear how the spectators can derive any particular, enjoyment from the affair. When in his heyday Battling -Nebon spoke once or twice of visiting London and tackling the British boxers on their native heath, it was pointed out to him that when fighting under the direction pf an English referee he would be eg harmless as a muzzled bull terrlor. The Battler thought it over and staid at home. Now, in a way, England is coming to us.

Now the favorite way of fighting, according to London standards, is to prevail in New York, and Wolgast would be in the position Nelson would have been in had the Battler invaded London. If the order of the New Tork commission is as definite as It appears on paper Tom Jones may well be trembling for the fate of his champion, for in a 10-round bout with clean breaks it seems as though Mat Wells of London would be a top-heavy favorite over Wolgast of Cadillac. COMPULSORY FOOTBALL IS ENJOYED FOR FIRST TIME Madison, Wis- Nov. Eighty University of Wisconsin freshmen sprinted around the lower campus today, kicking footballs and tackling the dummies and taking evident enjoyment Tn every move. It was the first trial of compulsory football at any college or university.

"They seem to And the best enjoyment in kicking the said D. P. Meanwell. "Make them kick Indoors and you'll find them doing it in a mechanical fashion, lacking interest or purpose. It's a psychological fact that games and sports and not calisthenics are the real developmental forces for the body and bear out my theory that games should be conducted out of doors as many days In the year as the weather permits.

"Beginning next fall, all required athletic work will be done out of doors. Today's wprk was merely to get the boyg out of the stuffy gymnasium'. If developments show that some other sport or game is more popular than football, football will be dropped and another game substituted." BOTH TEAMS HOPEFUL. Detroit, Nov. 3.

Admitting that their chances of defeating Michigan are brighter tonight than they were a week ago, but hardly confl-icnt of their ability to down the Wolverines, the football eleven of Syracuse university finished the training programme for tomorrow's big battle at Ann Arbor with light practice today. Michigan Indulged in similar work at Ann- Arbor, and despite the absence of Yost the westerners expect victory by a good score. ST AGO HAS A GLOOM. Minneapolis, Nov. 3-CoechStagg of Chicago said today, regarding the football game with Minnesota; "The way things look to me Minnesota has the on Chicago.

The Gophers have more veterans In the lineup and veterans are sorely needed in a game played before such a crowd as is expected on Northrop field tomorrow." Early today the odds were 6 te 2 that the would defeat Chicago. MURPHY IS CAPTAIN. Philadelphia, Nov. Mack, manager of the Athletics, today announced he had, decided to appoint Daniel Murphy, right fielder, captain of the team, in succession to Harry Davis, who has joined the Cleveland Club as manager.

Ten days of fair weather wili enable the completion of the work for the biggest crop Gallatin has ever known.

TO OPEN UP MINE. Special DlRpatch to the Standard.

Twin Bridges. Nov. $. C. A.

Elier of the Big Hole basin has purchased from O. Rymal a recently-located mining claim in the Rochester district from which gold-bearing rock assaying $80 to the ton was taken out near the surface. Mr. Eller, who has bad experience in mining, will proceed at one to open up the claim, NEW RULE IRKS WOLGAST AXD OTHERS DEPEND CHIEFLY 03T INFIGHTING. BOUTS MAY PROVE TOO TAME Under eleaa-break realreatent the rangy boxer will hare the advantageCast werry oponent by rnsatng Into cllaehea.

San Francisco, Nov. 8. This is the way it reads: "Hereafter in all fights in the state of New Tork the contestants must break clean in the clinches. This was decided upon yesterday by the New Tork State Athletic commission at a meeting held in this city. The commission no longer favors the old practice in which fighters could protect themselves In the clinches." Can it be true? If so, farewell the loop-de-loop and the breast-grazfng uppercut writes W.

W. Naughton. For, with the loop you must have something to cling to before you can make It effective, while with the breast-graser the only man you could bit under the clean-break system would be yourself. Furthermore, exit the Ad Wolgasts and the Battling Nelsons and enter the Matt We Uses and the Freddie Welshes. Welcome the straight left and the sweeping right and good-bye to tne nunarea ana one little pokes and prods that can only be delivered when a fighter has his face flattened against an opponent's chest.

It was the way they boxed years ago and the New Tork State Athletic comfmiggion has ordered a return to the first principles. ease Reaetleau But is It fatr to the generation of American boxers that have built up a new system of glovecraft a system that has overshadowed the old straight-from-the-shoulder method of boxing as completely as magazine rifles have superseded the muzzle-loaders of 50 years ago? It was the "flght-yourself-loose'' style of milling that gave us Terry MoGovern, Battling Nelson, Ad Wol-gast Billy Papke and others too numerous to mention. If the clean-break system, which has never been rigidly observed since the days of the o)d California Athletic club, had been insisted upon right along, there would have been no Battling Nelsons an? Consequently no Ad Wolgasts. Joe Gans, under the rules In question, would have kept In the forefront ef champions until outlawed from the game by increasing years and declining health. Then some clean-break specialist would have usurped the premiership of the ight weight division and held the Nelsons and the Wolgasts successfully at bay.

The news of the clean-break renaissance wlil be heard with Joy in Eng land, where every boxer regards a referee's as "his master's voice," and disentagles himself frpjn clinches with, lightning speed, so as to minimize tn prospect pf disqualification And it is not fear of the referee alone that breeds In the English bruiser a hair-trigger readiness to break.when called upon. Much breaking and much stepping away means the Introduction of many little rests that are not otherwise provided in a threermipute spell of. -boxing. More- Jau nit rniuire a boxer to waste his strength in wrest. ling and wriggling and striving --o blanket free-arm punches, tb say nothing of the battering It saves him from be happens te be holding and the other man Is engaged in fighting himself loose.

The break-at-the-order-of-the-referee style of ing is the one that has always found favor with English ringmen, and there will be widespread satisfaction over the water when the news of the action taken by the New Trk commission reaches there. It was announced recently that a small band of the pick of the British boxers intended Journey-lng to New Tork this faU. When they hear the glad tidings they may sail for this country sooner than they proposed- With revival of the "hit block and get awar" method ef milling New Tork will seem 'Just ldke 'ome" to the transatlantic pilgrims. Wonder what the poor public will think of the restoration of refined fisticuffs? There lis much to be 'said in tavor of cleen-breafc Where the principals are anywhere near equal in the matter of cleverness a contest is much more interesting te" watch than one of the "go-as-you-please" bouts that have found favor in recent years. But In a ease of mixed company that is, where one fellow Is clever and the ether a product ef the flght-yourself-loose schoolIt is easy enough to imagine where the credits would fp In a limited match.

And. from the wide divergence 1a AGAINST LEADER AT BOIEMAK-BUTTE GAME PROMISRS TO BE GREAT CONTEST. BOTH THE TEAMS ARE PRIMED Winner of today's game, by disposing of Great Falls, will probably be entitle to claim the state football schalastle championship. tate scholastic football history for tills searou will i made at Cbiumbiagardeus this afUrnoon, when the Gallatin county high school eleven of Bogenmn the Butte high football scoring machine In the first struggle between the two teams this season. The winner of today's gridiron struggle probably will be well on the wav to the state championship.

Of the four school elevens which loom up as eontendes for the t.tte diamilon. ship Boseman and Butte, aevirdlng to tne reports thur this season, have tho edge on Great Fall and Missoula. Whichever eleven wins tMs afternoon at the gvdens will have a wll-ined grab hold on the season's honors in' the state. Bozeman Is the heaviest and sturdiest eleven in the state this year and will undoubtedly put up a strong snd determined game against the purple and white. Realising what Is at stake, the.

Butte scholastics are determined to seofe a victory over their heavier opponents in the. buttle today. With both teams striving for a vletory, the former not speeding en-eirely upon its beef, todsy's game shmild bring baek memories of other great high school contests which have been witnessed in past years on the gridiron at the gardens. The Bozeman eleven will arrive In Butte this morning, accompanied by four tub-Ktltutes, Coach Kauffman and Coach Dockstader of the Montana Agricultural college, who will officiate as an umpire In today's game. Coach Post of the purple and whits eleven gave his youngsters thel Ust workout yesterday afternoon at o'eloek.

A sharp and rapid signal practice was Indulged in by tht squad, which apparently la in the beet physical condition. Expressions of determination could be seen on every player's face when Coach post called time yesterday afternoon-The formation plays and other new rsm charges which the coach has devised tor the eleven this seasn were given particular attention In the final practice, and If the youngsters get such a varied assortment of plays off as wall today as they did In practice yesterday, Bozeman will be kept on the def ensue a good part of the time. The lineup of the team will be the same as that ot last Saturday against Montana college, Donnelly and Christie will take care of the end positions, Lyford and Freshman the tackle Jobs, Barry snd Britten the guard positions and P. Crow-ley at center. Bourquln will play quarter, McDougall and Sullivan half bocks and Osenbrug full back.

On the side lines, ready to Jump Into the game at moment's notice, will be Darrell, Wade, Han-ley and Range, together with two or three ether promising players en tht squad.
