ernOOn at the conclusion OF a foot
ball game between Manchester col
lege and Hamline university upon
the campus of the latter. The Pres
byterianS won by a score OF 4O-0.
Despite the inclement weather the
game was witnessed by nearly 800
enthusiastic spectators. Partisan
ship ran high, the admirers of the
respective teams lending spirit to
the occasion by repeated cheers as
one side or the other advanced the
ball or stopped a run by clever
tackle. The Hamline supporters
were lined up along the west side
of the grounds, while the Manchester
''rooters" occupied the east side, and
from the beginning to the end of
the contest defiance was hurled
across the intervening space in the
shape of ''yells" and sallies which
would have made a band of Indians
turn green with envy. During the
intermission between the halves the
two lines came together for a 'rush"
which was responsible for many a
ruined overcoat and smashed der
by, to say nothing of bumps and
bruises, all of which were received
with good-ndtured forbearance. The
grounds were hard and slippery and
the ball at times difficult to handle,
but withal the game was interesting
and exciting, abounding in brilliant
runs and clever tackling. The teams
were about equally matched in
weight, and each played good Of
fensiVe game, but with the ball in
Macalester's possession. Hamline
showed extremely weak defensive
work, being wholly unable to stop
the heavy interference of the "yel-
low and blue" Koons, Palmer,
Baker. Stanley, Cooper and Leck
played great game for Manchester,
while Stocking, Wallace and Wool
ridge did some splendid work for
Hamline. Bert Wallace, Hamline's
full back, received a severe injury
during the first half by striking his
head upon the ground, and was re-
moved to his residence, where he
Hamline won the toss and chose the
south goal, with slight wind in their
favor. Manchester kicked out of
bounds at the first try at a kickoff, but
with the second attempt sent the
leather to Hamline's twenty-yard line,
where it was downed on the spot by
Graham. Hamline sent Wallace at the
center for two yards, repeating the per-
formance with no gain. An end run
by Stocking, with several center plays,
advanced the ball to the center of the
field, where it went to Manchester on
four downs. On the first play Palmer
made six yards through the line
Koons next netted Mac" eight yards
more by a successful try around the left
end, Immediately afterwards getting
ten yards by the same tactics. Stan
ley and Cooper, by gains of six and
five yards respectively, landed the oval
on Hamline's five-yard line, from where
Stanley went through right tackle for
a touchdown. Cooper kicked goal.

made ten yards before being downed.
Koons next reached the center of the
field by a splendid end run, and Pal
mer put six yards behind him through
the line. Center plays netted small
gains, when Koons again got ten yards
around the end. On the next play
Palmer followed his interference nice
ly, and gained twenty-five yards by a
pretty run, carrying the ball to Ham
lines five-yard line, when Koons went
through the line for the second touch
down. Cooper kicked goal Time, s

off side play. -Four times Hamline went
at Macs center in a vain effort to
gain five yards, when the Presbyte-
rians again secured the pigskin. Plays
by Koons, Palmer and Stanley soon

line, when Palmer carried it over fol
a touchdown. Cooper failed goal. Time
minutes; score, 16-0.
Cooper returned Hamline's next
| kickoff to the thirty-five yard line
where Graham downed the catcher il
his tracks. Hamline, at this point
played with a stubborn determination
and by successive end and center plays
slowly forced the oval to Manchester
| fifteen-yard line, where it was lost or
a bad tumble. This was the only time
the Manchester goal was endangered
during the game. Koons started back
toward the Methodists' goal by a clev-
er run of fifteen yards, when Hamline
braced up and held the line four times

ester was again evidenced by theil
| again securing the ball inside of five
| yards on downs. Palmer, Rooms, Stan
! ley and Leck made good gains, carry
| ing the ball to Hamline's four-yart
| line, when Cooper lodged around righ,
