Thanksgiving Day.

Thanksgiving Day.
Special Correspondence of the Standard.
Bozeman. Dec. 2.-The football game on
Thanksgiving day was very interesting
one to the citizens of Bozeman and the
students of the college. From being
about the poorest eleven in the state, the
Bozeman State college football eleven has
become the champion of the amateurs of
the state of Montana. with large scores
to its credit
For the first 10 minutes on Thursday af
ternoon it looked as though the game
going to be a very close one. The Mis-
soua State university boys got the ball
at the start and did excellent work for a
short time. The unexecelled work done
by the two letters, the two F'lahertys.
Parkers, Williams and others afforded the
Missoula boys a good lesson in football
tactics.
Walker. Jones and Hechler of the visit
ing team also did grand work for the dis
heartened Missoua boys, and did much
to put up an interesting game for the
spectators. Every now and then the Wis
itors would rally and bring their oppo-
nents up standing, but greater weight, eX-
perience and a better knowledge of the
tricks of the game ended in a victory for
Bozeman with the score stading at IS
to O.
The principal scores were made by Will
HANS, Will Three lOuCIlJ"HS, ,fllDiu
Jeffers C. Parker and Clarence letters,
one touchdown each. Out of the seven
goals only three were kicked. 1t was a
great game of football and no little
credit is due to both teams for the efforts
put forth. and especially to the Missoula
boys, who were playing with such odds
against them.
This Is probably the last game of the
term and there is a likelihood the first
eleven will not play again the present
school year.
