Evenly Played Game Between North
western and Chicago Universities.

CHICAGO. Nov. 26.-The game between
Northwestern University and the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin resulted in a ties to g..
wisconsin won the toss and took the
south goal. with the wind blowing such
a gale from the south that the ball scarce
ly could be kept in position long enough
to kick 1t. The ball, when Potter kicked
il off, was downed on Wisconsin's twenty
yard line. Then there was a return kick
by Wisconsin hat carried the ball to
Northwestern's fifteen-yard line. to which
it kept In close proximity nearly through
the first half. 1t was mass against mass,
with a few quick passes, and the ball
Travelled back and forth, getting closest to
Northwestern's goal when Karel made a
short dash with it and was downed by
Potter.
Northwestern had the advantage of the
wind in the second half, but made little
more use of it than Wisconsin had in the
first. The ball moved steadily into Wis
consin,s territory from the first. There was
scarcely a halt or backward movement till
1t had reached the Badgers ffteen-yard
line. Then there was a slight loss. which
Vandoozer covered by carrying. the ball
he was downed. There was a halt while
an ugly cut over the eye of Wisconsin's
captain, the only serious mishap
of the game. was patched. Then the ball
was carried by Sloan over the Wisconsin
goal line and the first touchdown was
scored. the goal following.
The spectators who had come to see foot
bail supposing it consisted of a series of
beautiful high flies were party g~ratified
when the play opened again. They were
gratified a second time when Sloan. North
Westerns full back. sent the ball over the
heads of both elevens and dropped 1t at
Richards's feet. Little by little the ball
was pushed towards Northwestern's goal
by the Wisconsin men. Finally, at the ff-
teen-yard line. the men of Northwestern
rallied nightly and held the advancing line
for four downs. But ii was of little avail.
for when Northwestern's quarter back

the goal line. Brewer fell on it. after a
gallant attempt by Scan. and Wisconsin
had scored. The goal was easy. and the
score tied, with eight minutes of play re-
naming.
When play was begun again the ball
swayed back and forth over the center
field like the bob of a pendulum. Finally
1T went well down the field towards North
Westerns goal. Then Sloan came to the
rescue. His foot struck the ball with a
thud. and it went high into the air and
down the Wisconsin's fifteen-yard line.
When time was called the ball was still
close to that point. The -ne-up was as
