SOLDIERS WON.
Stanfords Beaten at Football on
Their Own Campus.


STANFORD, Oct. 20-Eight hundred
soldiers of the Fiftyfirst Iowa Regl-
ment, with their band and football
team, made things lively on the Stan
ford campus to-day. The game of foot
ball with the Stanford was a hard one,
the score at the finish standing to
in favor of the Iowa Volunteers.
Iowa played without avail throughout
the first half and part of the last half.
Then on Stanford's 25-yard line came
the play which made Coach Cross and
in fact all the players except those from
Iowa look troubled. The ball was
snapped back to Gaines, who held it TO
the ground, while Palmer kicked for
goal, thus making a place kick for goal
from field. The goal was missed. No
whistle was blown, and Palmer, rushing
across the line, picked up the ball and
touched it down behind Stanford's goal
line, claiming the touchdown. Iowa
kicked a goal, and no other score was
made during the game.
This is the first football contest that
Stanford has lost on the campus since
1892.
