-V'; NORTHWOOD, April The Northwood high school will again le a candidate for championship honors Hits year. The team will bo somewhat weakened by the loss of Benson, last year's star pitcher, who graduated, but Coach White hue several promising candidates for that position, who have the qualifications of fairly good pitchers. The most promising candidates for the slab are walker, Uuidlnger, Thomson and Savre. The remainder of the team will be nearly the same as last year, a all the old men are back, except Snyder. A lot of promising material has come up to the high school from the grades, which will some of the old men hurry to keep their potfons.

The chedule, so far ns arranged. Is as follows: April 23, Austin High school, at North-wood; April 30. Ma3on City High school at Northwood: May 7, Lake Chrvsial High school at Northwood; May 14, Mason City High school at Mason City; June 4, Iike Chrystal High school nt Lake Chrystal. Lake Chrystal held the Minnesota, high school pennant in 1902 and 1W3. The faculty has agreed to allow the team one day out of each week, so any teamsdesiiiiig games, who will be able to either come to Northwood or have tha Northwood team come to their town during the week, can easily secure dates by addressing W.

F. White, coach ma nager. Coach White had charge of last year's championship team, and his presence lends a good deal of courage to the boys which would otherwise be lacking. Roy L. Brown Wins Prizes Others Suggested Same Name mlttee Pleased.

ONLY TWO ALTERNATIVES Buy the YORKSHIRE Suits, or go to a high priced tailor and leave your measurement, Time was when the latter course was unavoidable if you wanted a correct fit, but these suits we are selling are custom-made although ready to wear. It was the Yorkshire Factory that first conceived the idea of custom tailoring for ready to war clothing. The problem to solve was the elimination of chance in the matter of fit.

THEY HAVE SOLVED THE PROBLEM to the satisfaction of some of the best dressers in America solved it by using the same materials as the merchant tailor and employing men to cut and make who were versed in tne art of custom tailoring. A new system of measurements was adopted insuring easy fit, and a grade of workmanship was insisted upon that immediately raised the Yorkshire Manufacturers to the rank of merchant tailors prices however, being kept on the level of ordinary manufactured clothing half the price of mide-to order garments. The Yorkshire spring suit come in a wide range of fabrics and patterns every style is represented, and you can buy a suit that will pass in the most select circles as a made-to-order garment, but CAPT.

one of the hardest hitting rhatchers in tiie Western last year tir.i who was sold bv lies Moines to Cincinnati for Jl.oafl may return to Des Moines within a few days. N'-gotiations between the player and the management of the local club are under way and It is believed that Fohl will be brought into camp. Fohl worked with Cincinnati for two weeks last fall. He failed to make good and was released. Yesterday Towne received a letter from In which the latter stated that he was at liberty and would like to return to Des Moines.

Towne turned the letter over to- Secretary Raw-son, who Immediately telegraphec the club's terms to Fohl. Last night a reply came in shape of a wire stating that a letter defining his position would follow. This letter Is expected tomorrow or Tuesday, when it will be known whether or hot Fohl will come back to Des Moines. Fold is now at his home in Allegheny, ra. if the Politicians can land Fohl the catching department will be greatly strengthened.

At present there is a close fight between all four of the catchers signed for honors. Last season he batted .210. better than any man on the team except O'Leary. Chicago Americans Today. The Chicago Americans, headed by the sturdy "Ducky" Holmes, for a number of years with Des Moines and one of the most popular players who ever played on a local team, came to town yesterday morning from Kansas City.

But nine men came In the Des Moineo division, the re stall. that they would be hard to beat. Another suggested the "iieteetives." who never lose 11 cajse. Une writer suggested the Aristocrats and also sent the lolloping: "Aristocrats, Aristocrats' Kver master of lite bat; Kutining, uliding. up or flat.

Always know where they're at!" An employe of the Backers' Life association Huggesled tiiait the team be called the "Resurrectionists," inasmuch as they were "planted last year. Still another sent in four hilarious names, the "Harvesters," "Plow Boys." "RaZ'Mipors" and tiie "Live Wires." There seemed to be a decided tendency to connect ithe name of the club in some way with the agricultural proclivities of the state. The corn-hnskers. corn-growers and similar concoctions occurred froijuently. The contest was a great success and the numfier of answers received was alniive anything exported.

Prior to the opening of the communications it was not thong-lit possible that so many different names could be suggested for ft club and so many which would be appropriate. There was evidently much thought on the jKirt of many of the contestants, some of whom presented strong arguments in favor of their suggestions. With Sioux City-G. G. Hurlburt.

"Ducky" Holmes thinks that the White Sox are' in much better shape than ever before and flrmlv believes that they will finish near the top of the list. "It don't do much good to make a lot of predictions said Holmes yesterday, "but I think that the White Sox wll have a good team this vear.

Monday The ball teams of West High, North High and Oak Park have been handicap-ped by the bad weather which has made practice very irregular. In spile of the late season, however, fast teams will be developed, according to the present prospects.

The West High-Four Cs and the North Illgs-Mitchellviiie games, scheduled for yesterday, were imsiponed un account of the weather and will be played later. A tlllticuity encountered by the managers is the expense attached to bringing outsido teams here, and witnoul return games oik of town trii caimot be taken. iliiciieilville plays North and i tt Hlgn two games each, and two contests lake place between North and West High.
