Unusually heavy schedules and hard luck during the past two or thr.e seasons have led the management of the several teams to believe that their proteges would be much better a'Dle to render a good account of themselves and also derive much greater benefit, from foot ball training if a little better prepared for the hard knocks and bruises before school opened. The foot ball situation has reached such a status in Iowa that no team which makes any pretense of being In the van guard can well avoid four or five gruelling contests. In fact that figure seems to be the minimum for the "Big Four" will each have three big games in Iowa and will, of wa.t the experience of meeting haid teams outside the state before discharging home obligations.

E. Harris 'nfi and will be taken up this fall by Harris II. Coggeshall of Des Moines who captained Lhe eleven. Whether for belter or for worse, Grlnoell's financial status practically dictates that It must abandon the old plan of retaining a high salaried eastern coach and trusi to the resources of Its graduates.

Spiers, of Glen Falls, N. Y. Her fastest mile has been 2:20, but she has covered the half in the marvelous time of 1:05, a clip that will land her up in Ihe money If she can carry It. Luna was formerly owned by Marcus Daly and was trained last year as a two-year-old by Joe Rhea, who has the Daly horse here now. She was sold with a large lot of Mr.

Daly's horses In New York city last fall and In her work this spring she showed speed of a high order, but an attack of distemper gave her quite a setback and she will start In the big stake with a short prepartatlon on that account. Many believe, however, that her great speed will get her a bit of money anyway. Trainer lialdwin says he will give her a preparatory mile or two this week about as fast as she will go. Crystallne, the Kentucky filly, who won the 2-year-old division of the review stake last year, arrived yesterday In good shape. Her chances are not quite as rosy as they were before she ran last year, but still she has been a mile or two in her work In 2:16, and that means that she is one of the good ones.

Ames, of course, has already been In training for several weeks as that Institution opens Its fall term about August 1.

Rita won her race there and took a record of 2:17 and showed that she was a high-classed colt. Hen Kenny, her driver, Is a noted colt handler and developed among hundreds of others, the record breaker Nancy Hanks, 2:04. Mr. Kinney says of Rita that she Is 'the most perfect trotter for what Bhe can do that he ever drove. He purchased her for Mr.

Hrown, a wealthy gold miner of Salt Lake Coggeshall Instilled into his men they wore able to do what could not have been done under Indifferent leadership. Whatever else may happen It Is practically an assured thing that Grinnell will play this fall with all of its old time dash. Coggeshall will be assisted by such other alumni as can find opportunity to run down to Grinnell for a few days during the season. In point of old material the team will be in fairly good condition. There are a few vacancies but the material with which to fill them seem hardly so abundant as at the other schools.

Wheeler at center, Thiel at guard, Fris-ble, Taft and Fellows at tackle, Captain Bird and Douglas at end, Lindsay and Flsk at quarter, Foster and Clark nt halves, are the old men who will return. Captain Felroe will be sadly missed, at fullback, but It is hoped a good punter may he developed from some of last year's backs. A small squad of the candidates will go Into lege players put up as good an article of ball thin fall under Meyers' tutelage as did the aggregation of 'X It Is not altogether probable that succeeding managers will a desperate (lir-tation with alumni who have been through the mill at Ames. With the lightest team in Its history and an embarastdng quantity of green material Ames rounded Into splendid form lasl full and administered defeat to Drake's galaxy of giants. Weaker from en Individual standpoint than the famous team of 1806 It was generally conceded to have surpassed It In team work.

With but one vacancy on the team and an assortment of last year's substitute material that will keep the old men awake nights figuring to hold their places, the situation at Ames appears anything but melancholy. The old men who have relumed follow: State Normal team: Hoover, who was captain of Midland Kansas 'IIS team, and Herbert, who has played on a local In Iowa. A dozen more candidates will reach Iowa City between now and next Widn sday, anions them Sam Hobbs, the captain and fullback of las; year's team; Morton, the '3X halfback, and Fred Williams. Under the direction of Captain Eby and Coach Knlpe, men are being put through course of preliminary work, calcula'ed to sift the Available material, so that the. team can be lined up very soon after the opening of the term, September 12.

This will be none too early, an the first game of the seuson wilh the State Normal team occtii eleven days later, on September 22. The latter team surprised the 'Vursltles by a -defeat at Cedar Falls last year, and It is said City, who owns -Altoka, 2:10, and other horses entered here, is now sorry that he sold her, as when he let her go he expected to dispose of all his class trotters, will not be for lack of effort. Last iail the Normalites formally made their bow on the gridiron by defeating S. U. I.

The latter, though sadly disorganized, went to Cedar Falls confident of an easy victory. They had heard of the Normal school, but little of Its foot ball team. The result was a surprising defeat and another little WTlnkle In the foot ball puzzle for 1S99. Normal has always had an abundance of splendid material. Last year the game got a good start and the Indications are that the ball will be kept rolling this season at a lively rate.

The management has retained as coach Sweetland who played at fullback for four years on the I'nion college eleven. lie Is' also an old track and base ball man and comes highly recommended by eastern foot ball authorities. Sweetland will report for duty September 15 and will remain with the team two months. Last year's team was very heavy and there will be plenty of weight on hand this fall.

Professor Strong la still In the west and the players will not for some time yet begin the struggle for supremacy on the gridiron. A' very urgent need of good players to fill out vacancies Jeft in last year's team has been felt and owing to tha weakness of the scrubs this has been the most Important question for the management to face.

The personnel of the team Is not known at present and will not be decided upon until after some weeeks of training. The lack of head work In last year's team will be corrected as much as possible. This Is recognized as a point of much value but owing to ths Irregularity of the practice grounds Drake has heretofore been very deficient In this. The halves ill be trained to aid the ends on defensive. Straight foot ball and open plans will be relied upon to lose or win as It may be.

To arrest any chance or attempt at professionalism there has beeen a complete change of management In all matters pertaining to physical culture, Frorn the Y. M. O. A. executive commit fee of three Professor Hoss and Joe Sellards have been elected to have complete control and oversight of all departments and managers.

All moneys, donations, sale of seats, is In their hands and the books are open for Inspection by any one at any time. Hesldes this, each player will be required to sign si statement that he has not received nor will receive any remuneration whatever for services for athletic work at Drake university.
