The Fireman's Ball is one of the events
always locked orward to with pleasur-
able anticipation. and of the two hum
dged couples attending last night. it is
safe to say none We're disappointed. The
floor Of the large Union hall had been
cleared for the occasion and to the mus
ir furnished by Schrlher's orchestra. the
deyotees of Terpischore slided graceful
~ ana pleasantly With the hours. Hive
No. Il, l.. o. I. NJ, furnished refresh
ments.
The silver. gold and copper has again
gone dow nhefore the cabbage and the
rose. but the athletes from the Bozeman
agricultural college found a tough fight
put up by the university before the
game was ended. Threats are raw to-
night from continued cheering, and a
few feel sore over the result, but all
had a game for their money. During
the first half it looked as though the
university lads We're outclaSsed GS the
burly agriculturists pushed them slow
ly but surely over the lines, and at the
end had a score OF IL to 0. But in the
second half the farmers did not have
it all their own wa by considerable.
Little Hechler, the quarterback, made
some beautiful 1uns. and when big
Bean. the full back got under Roadway,
ground was usually gained: maybe only
a foot. but sometimes yards. Flaherty,
of the Bozemans, makes a splendid end,
ana did some good work.
At times the work was splendid on
both sides. but the university team was
a little weak in interference, and a few
unfortunate fumbles silenced the din of

with the usual accompaniment of tin
horns and other noise-producers. Hech-
Ter started a couple of runs that would
nave gained ground had he been prop
erly supported.
The day was very pleasant and about
1000 people witnessed the game. AL
though at times the play was fierce, the
injuries We're slight. Wood became
lame and gave way to Buckhouse; Fer
rell broke a coIlarbone and with drew
for Jones. Bozeman's center, Robinson,
was overcome in a tackle and replaced
with King.
