24 to D.
The Manchester football team defeated
the Shattuck team in q we'll played game
on the Manchester campus yesterday aft
ernOon. by a score Of "a to 0. The victory
was won through the snappy aggressive
play and good defensive work OF the
Manchester team. Shattuck had a shade
the best Of it in weight, but lacked spirit
in its plays, though its formations and
interference were better than that Of the
Manchester boys. The game abounded in
exciting individual plays on the part Of
several Of the Manchester kickers, Brown
Smits, Caldwell, Abels, Brush and Baker
making some excellent gains. Brown was
the star Of the game. He was in every
play, always with the ball, and played
havoc single handed with the Shattuck
back formations, besides advancing the
ball every time he went through the line
In the first half the game was vigor-
ously contested by both elevens. with
the result that Manchester scored but one
touchdown. During the first twenty min
utes it looked as if the Manchester team
was up against 1t, but the college boys
took a splendid brace after getting warm
ed up, and played fast Football afterward
throughout the game. Once it seemed as
though Shattuck could not be prevented
from scoring. The ball had been forced to
within six inches of the Manchester line
on the next play But Manchester held
the line stubbOrnly for two down, and
on the third scrimmage Shattuck lost
seven yards, FORGETTING the ball By per-
sistent line bucking Manchester advanced
the ball up the field to Shattuck's five
yard line, when the tables were again
turned. Here, too, a touchdown seemed
assured, but Shattuck got the ball on a
bad tumble and started back down the
field with it. For ten minutes the Shat
tuck players pushed and struggled until
the ball was on Macalester's Twenty-Five
yard line, where Manchester again took
the oval on downs Then there was a
steady march to the Shattuck goal line
where Brown went over for a touchdown
Brush missed the goal. The half ended
with the score to 0 in favor Of Macal-
ester
Shattuck kicked off in the second half.
and the ball was kept in Manchester ter
ritory for some minutes, and at the center
of the field ShattUck took the pigskin on
downs. At this point the embryonic SOL
dieri put little ginger into their plav-
and bucked the line to Macalester's TWEEN
ty-hve-yard line, but could get no further.
Manchester, by a series of tackle and
short end plays in which SHIFTS shone TO
advantage by clever lodging, carried the
ball TO within three yards of Shattuck's
goal, but another bad tumble gave the
CADETS the pail and prevented a score.
Shattuck was held for three downs and
then tried a kick, but Smits blocked the
ball, and the play resulted in a safety,
scoring for Manchester. From the TWEEN
ty-hve-yard line Manchester rushed the
ball up the field, and Smits went through

pail to Shattuck's fifteen-yard line by a
brilliant run, and two more line PLAYS
sent Brush over for touchdown. Brush

three minutes left after the last kick
on Manchester again carried the bali over
the Shattuck goal line, and kicked q goal
