Iowa's failure to win her conference
games. These rumors are perhaps natu-
raj among those who place great en-
phasis upon scores and who regard VIC
troy as the desideratum of college sport.
In conference circles, however, they
give rise only to smiles and unflattering
remarks upon the knowledge possessed
by those who credit the rumors. 1t is a
safe assertion that iowa could lose far
more games than she has lost the past
two years and still retain her standing
in the conference. Conference standing
is not entirely dependent upon victories
and large scores. The members have
way of talking upon ethics, amateurism
end the good of intercollegiate sport
great deal more than they talk about
the results of games. In ethics Iowa
is recognized by all well-posted observ-
ers as standing at the top of the list
Illinois defeated Northwestern at
Chicago Saturday after hard tussle
in the first half, and is now ready for
Iowa Thanksgiving day. Minnesota
and Wisconsin played their reserve
elevens and Michigan rolled UP score
on Oberlin which makes her total for
minutes played in the game, including
the Thanksgiving day game with Min
nesota The contest for the western
championship has been definitely locat-
ed at Ann Arbor, and record breaking
crowd may be expected. Michigan looks
a bit the stronger and there would be
great shattering of the idols if Mime
sofa should win. Purdue won her way
to the semi finals of the state cham
pionship of Indiana by defeating Indi-
annapolis. The final game will be played
with Notre Dame Thanksgiving day.
Wisconsin and Chicago have been
laying low the past week. and it is an
even matter which wins in the Thanks
giving day game on Marshall field
Northwestern goes to Lincoln to play
Nebraska Thanksgiving day. Coach
Booth of Nebraska is starring this
game as a counter attraction TO the
Minnesota Michigan game by issuing
an official interview in which he claims
that by defeating Northwestern his
team will win the western champion
ship without doubt. Booths attach
ing championship value to the North
western game recalls the long success
sion of victories that have not come to
HOLSTERS men for some time.
Yale won the American champion
ship by her clean-cut defeat of Harvard
at New Haven. Harvard played her
greatest game of the year, and contest |
ed the result until the close of the |
game, but a try at a field goal was the
nearest she came to scoring.
Grinnell high school won the state
high school championship, so far as it
can be decided by the games now
scheduled, by defeating East Des
Moines 16 to II. The Grinnell boys |
opened up on the big east siders with a
rush, and the capitol city boys never
in solving their swift, hard |
tandem plays. Creston and Cedar Falls |
showed up as strong contenders for the |
honors in their sections of the state by |
their victories over Council Bluffs and
5. The Cedar Falls con-
lest was particularly close, neither
cam having been beaten and both be-
ng very strong. Marshalltown contin
led its penchant for high scores in it's
game with Waterloo, and Ida Grove re-
oiced at its victory by 81 to 0 over
Storm Lake, which had defeated the FIT.
Dodge team. Mitchellville defeated the
Oak Park boys from Des Moines in a
lose, well fought game.
