Until Springer was forced to 60 out t
f the game s U. I. could gain no
round around his end. IT,

The conduct Of the crowd and the
Juggling allowed by Umpire Coldren G
as a disgrace to the University of o
wa. The university this year is o
aging too good a game to allow $
Ich work, and although her coach "
making splendid team, there are ii
few things that even his big head s,
Innot hold.
Had the university team left the u
