after their first commingling with the
mud, they would have dropped their
weapons and fed with bleak screams
of terror. Dripping with liquidated
mud, their knotted hair coiled like the
CORY locks of the war god, the rival
columns rushed at each other
1t was a great game with few varia
tons in it. Whichever side had the ball
sent the other FLASHING over the Slip
perry U. of q. campus grounds, and
nothing could resist them. The snow
and the mud shattered defensive work.
When the High School lost the ball
after their first gallant rush, their only
hope was in a tumble, and in this All
HalloWs were not obliging.
A HARD BATTLE.
The way of the collegians was not
paved with roses, and they earned the
victory by strong team work and the
sturdy work of the backs. The two

his place, was not altogether familiar
with his duties behind the line, as the
change became necessary just before
the game, when there was no time left
for practice. Howell was needed in the
line where Campbell did not attain any
very great briiliancy.
GOOD TEAM WORK.
During the brief offensive campaign
of the High School, their inspiring team
work was shown to advantage. Tat
Taylor and Smith swung around the
end for long gains, aided by some inter-
ference that was beyond reproach. The
heavy three of the center did some

opponents, and little Miller pierced the

over him for some of their longest

THE CO-EDS CHEERED.
Most of the shouting and the wav-
ing of colors was done for the high
school. A pretty bevy of co-eds cheer
ed them from the bleachers, and the
rooters were raised for the red and
black in shrill shouts. The crowd was
about as far from the control Of the
police as 2 flock of kites, and early in
the game formed q skirmish line around
the players that could not be broken.
THE GAME.
Tanning kicked off for All Hallows
to Howell, who, on double pass, gave
the ball to w. Smith, who gained 10
yards by the maneuvre. The high
school then began an assault on the
Ali Hallows lire, Taylor penetrating it
for five yards, while Smith added five
more. Smiths attempt at an end run
was blocked by Talon, but Smith re-
deemed himself a moment by a seven
yard dash through the line.
The guards back order was given,
and Howe pushed the ball through for
ten yards. The guards back formation
was repeated a moment later, but this
time Howell fumbled the ball. and j.

college then tried the mettle of the
