FOOT BALL AT AMEs.
First Team Treated 20 surprise

First Team Treated 20 surprise An
Game sNtsh second Team.
special to Times Republican
Ames, Oct. 11.-Last evening at the
regular practice game between the
scrub ana varsity foot bali teams OF
the Iowa State College the scrubs in
twenty minutes play scored five touch-
downs to the varsIty's one. something
which men prominent In athletics say
does not happen once in hundred
times and which mas not happened be-
fore at the Iowa State College Tor years.
Coach Woodruff says material for foot
ball players Is scarce this fall and that
IT is an off-year. but after he had picked
eleven men from the thirty-f five or forty
who get out FOR practice every evening,
Foster Parker, who is coaching the
scrubs, picked out q team from the re-
naming players which showed itself to
be In many respects the superior of the
first team, not as individual players so
much as being better In their team
work.
Now the question arises, has the team
been properly handled? After the Min
nesota game last Saturday Woodruff
evidently concluded his team was too
light behind the line and accordingly
changed several OF the players in the
line to positions as backs. but after a
little practice with the men in their new
positions he concluded that 1t would not
do. Several Of the students who take an
active interest in athletics favor the In
stalling Of Parker as regular coach OF
the first team Parker was the star
halfback of the Ames team in 1896 and
1897. when the team was at its best. and
leaving school before finishing his
course coached the Penn College team
for two years. The excellent team
which Penn has put in the field for the
last two years attests his ability as a
coach. He is finishing his course as a
veterinary surgeon this year, and his
position as coach having made him in
eligible as player on the team 1t is
deemed advisable by not few to put
MIN in charge of the team.
The Ames team has been top notch
er for six or seven years and 1t Is a sbit-
ter pill to most members OF the institu-
ton to have to take q position in the
rear this fall.

Ames, Oct. l.-At recent meeting Of
the board OF trustees OF the Iowa State
College provision was made for allowing
limited credits in the agricultural
course to students who are employed
from three months to a year in practical
work on stock farms, horticultural or
feeding farms, beet sugar farms or fac
tories. dairy establishments or forestry
reservations OF recognized standing, pro-
vihng competent and faithful service
| is rendered under the direction Of the
proprietor and a concissly written report
or resume of their observations and ex-
perisnce is made by the students on re-.
turning to the college. This provision
was made on the recommendation Of
Prof. "A. +. Curtiss. to give emphasis to
and encourage practical work, as we'll
as scientific training in the agricultural
course, and to more fully meet the de-,
mands for young men competent to be-
come managers Of farms and agricul-
tural enterprises OF various kinds. This
demand has grown very rapidly of late.
conservative capitalists are looking up-
on intelligently conducted farming ops
|erations as among the safest and most
lfemunerative investments to be made.
The chief hindrance to this development,
1t is universally conceded, is the. difficult
l. ty of securing we'll qualified men to di-5
rect such tons, even at the liberal
salaries offered. The proprietofs of as-
lricultural lands are naturally looking
to the colleges for competent men to fiji
these POSITIONS. Practical training is an
essential adjunct to scientific study.
The motto of the college is Science
With Practice. !" and it is the aim of the
! college to teach science for it's practical
application to the industries Of life. The
agricultural department. has mad.
marked progress in this feature Of its.
work In recent years. In the rapio
strides that have been made the prac-
teal value OF the course has been kept
prominently in mind and the results OBJ
tanned have been such as to give the
school popular standing, as is eyi-
denced by the increasing number of stu.
dents in this department every year.

American missionaries as we'll as about

and helped build harrieades, stretching
harbed wire, digging bitches, fortifying

cept for its proximity to the wall of the
city, made most excellent fort. It's
