Special to the indianapolis Journal.
LAFAYETTE. Ind. Nov 24.-Oberlin de-
feated Purdue on Stuarts field this after
noon by a score of 10 to in the presence of
two thousand people The first half ended
with Purdue within few feet of touch
down. 1t was prevented by off-side play
allowed by Umpire b. f. Cole who is an
old Oberlin man. now of Baldwin College.
Some of Purdue's cracks were out of the
game on account of disability, but they put
up a stubborn fight nevertheless. In mass
plays during the first half Purdue had best
of the work but G. Fauver's beautiful run
around Purdue's right end, supported by
splendid interference, scored a touchdown
just before time was called. He failed on
the kick. Oberlin relied chiefly on guards
back play and a quarterback trick, both of
which were effective. In the second half
Davis made q touchdown after twenty min
utes play. Robertson outpunted Bradley,
but his effort for place kick was
blocked. Sears made several twenty-yard
gains in returning punts. while the Fauver
twins each made brilliant runs on similar
plays. Purdue went down owing to superior
weight and training of Oberlin. Many play
erS on each side were retired on account of
injuries but none serious. The FauVerS,
Davis, Chiz and Bradley did Oberlin's best
son and Dushane did good service for Pur-

played under perfect conditions the ele-

a half minute of the time limit in the last
half, when the visitors were playing des-
perate game and scored a touchdown on the
prettiest play CT the season, the ball being
passed back and forth three times to escape
tackles, and Rhinehart finally landed 1t
over the line but did not attempt kick,
darkness being on. Shideler made a forty
yard run for the visitors, but was tackled
by Captain White, while for Muncie Gill
scored on a forty-five-yard run and made
another run of about the same distance.
Spokesman was pushed over the line for the
touchdown amid the widest enthusiasm and
White kicked goal. Muncie kept the ball
on indianapolis territory most of the time.
There was a great deal of kicking among
the players, and the visitors complain in the
bitterest terms of the dirty" bali Spicker-
man played, he showing a willingness to
fight at any stage of the game. After Gill
had retired at the completion of the first
half, as per agreement, he was again put

Of Indianapolis, objected it being a viola
