Creighton won yesterdays foot ball game
on vinton field from the team OF the Genoa
Indian school by a score OF 20 to 0. The
Indian boys, however, made a much better
showing than the result would indicate. The
game was a good one from a spectators
point Of view as it abounded in long runs
and field goals. The Indians were lighter
than the locals and played unevenly. but at
times were able to make continued gains and
II they had not lost the ball on a tumble,
probably would have scored in the first part
Of the game. Their mass play. by which

the opposite wing, seemed to puzzle Creigh-

Of their team, is not an Indian, and has
