Wisconsin VS.. Minnesota.
Wisconsin's failure to kick an easy
goal was responsible for its defeat by
Minnesota at Minneapolis Saturday.

in the game, and the Gophers kicked
a goal from theirs, giving them vic
tory by a score of to 5.
Knox VS.. Northwestern.
Knox held Northwestern down to
score of IL to in hard fought game
IN Chicago Saturday. The football
played by the purple eleven was the
poorest that has been seen on Shep-
pard field this year. The work of the
Galesburg men against their heavier

some bad errors by her opponents,
gave Harvard most satisfactory vic
tory and made the crimson warm
favorite for the Yale game at New
Haven, just three weeks hence.
Cornell Tames The Tigers.
Cornell beat Princeton at Princeton
IL to O. The 1thacans, drilled to the
minutes, caught the green Princeton
team in it's half developed condition
and crushed it.
A year ago the Comedians caught
the PRINCETON team in the same way
at Ithaca. But the victory then was
only by five points, and the Tigens'
goal was not crossed, the single score
being due to a goal from the field.
This time Cornell's victory was decis-
ton.
