Ishpeming Wins at Milwaukee.

Considerable interest was taken among
local foot ball enthusiasts over the game
between the Ishpeming high school team
and the Milwaukee South Side school
team, which was played at Milwaukee
last Saturday. The Ishpeming boys
came out victorious by a score OF % to
8, and the Milwaukee team enjoys the
distinction of being the first team to
score against Ishpeming this season.
The local team is anxious to get another
game with Ishpeming this year as the
boys think they might be able to score
against them, il they could do nothing
more.

High School Students
Meet Mining School
Students
In a Friendly Foot Ball Game


The foot ball team from the Michigan
College of Mines will have to play a good
deal faster ball when they meet the
Ishpeming high school team next Satur-
day than they did when they played the
local aggregation last week il they intend
to defeat them. The boys here came
with an ace OF doing up the star team
from the Mining School last Saturday
and the swift game the youngsters put
up against their husky opponents was
sort of revelation to the Houghton peo-
pie who came cut with the evident ex-
pectation OF seeing the Mining School
boys run up great score, and showed
that it took something more than weight
in foot ball;
The game resulted In victory Tor the
visiting team by a score OF 16 to 10, but
the first half was won by the locals when
the score stood 10 to 6 in theirfavo and
the Calumet boys were more than iubil-
ant oyer the fact that they were able TO
score against the heavy team they ran
against. 1t was the first game the
Houghton team had played and this fact
undoubtedly accounted for the weakness
they showed on the defensive work, but
they had the advantage OF good scrub
teams to play against which the locals
did not enjoy and the weight OF their
men was not TO be compared with the
home boys. Notwithstanding this fact
they would have been beaten had not
they run in several of their heaviest men
in the second half, fresh against the same
boys who played the whole game for Cal
umet. The Mining School put in Dun
stan in the second half and this won
them the game. His weight and speed
was too much for the other boys and he
had no difficulty in getting away with
the ball. He and Haas who made several
pretty runs played fine for the visiting
team and showed that they understood
the game TO perfection.
In the first half Houghton kicked off
center OF the field. Then Lyons, half
back for the high school made perhaps
the finest run ever seen on the local grid
iron. He lodged out OF the crowd from
the center with the ball and passed every
man on the Mining school team, running
hall the distance OF the field for the first
touchdown. It was all done so quickly
and so neatly that the visitors did noe
seem to know how it all happened. Gil
bert kicked goal making the score 6 to o
in favor Of the Calumet team.
The other side then got the ball and by
center plays and sheer mass Of weight
forced it to the other side OF the field and
scored their touchdown and goal was
kicked. This made the score even, but
before the halt was over Calumet made
another touchdown but failed at goal.
In the second half, the Mining school. re-
enforced by the addition of Dunstan and
several other fresh PLAYERS again tried
their mass plays and a couple OF end
runs from Dunstan and Brennan scored
two more touchdowns and one goal
making the score 16 to 10. The local
team considered that they were doing
good work in holding them down that
low and the boys all played a fine game.
