CHICAGO BEATS ILLINOIS.

Chlcagos Oct. 27.-The University of Chicago
Saturday found In the University of Illinois the
stl1est proposition the team has met this sea
son. The score, Chicago s, Illinois O. seems 4
suitable verdict on the relative merits of the
two teams.
The field was soft and slippery when the game
started. and almost the entire. second half was
played In a downpour of rain. The conditions
but despite their handicap, the Champaign team
plyed out their string to- the end. The one score
1.-The game was made possible by q brilliant
twenty-eight-yard run by Perkins about the
middle OF the first half.
IN play on tackle the maroon fulback broke
away from his interference and, puslring of
three tacklers. carried the ball to the Illini
nine; yard line, from which place it was soon
passed oyer for touchdown. Ellsworth kicked
goal and Chicago had the six points which
brought victory. H..
Except for this one time. the Illini held the
maroons even in this half, and in fact. on
straight football, gained more ground than did
the maroons. y
In the second half, although Chicago could
not score again. the play showed the maroons to
he the better team. The Ilini came hack strong
cago's superior weight began to tell
The lll1ni were never nearer to a score than
ChicaBo's thirty-yard line and toward the end
Of tue game the maroens We're continually
they had the ball on the Illinois three-yard line
AS was expected, Stages men started pound
ing on the tackle positions, with Jake" Stahl
as the particular mark of attack. The Illini
made good their speed in the first half, and with
| fast field might have held the maroons to no
score
As it was the Hlini men came out of the
game with almost much glory as the victors.
Against superior weight and field that seri-
ously handicapped their style of play they
played gamely to the finish.
Chicago showed considerable improvement over
its form of a week ago.

BADGERS In GOOD FORM
Phil King Says His Team Will Be
in Good Condition to Meet
~. Michigan.

Coach Phil King, Of Wisconsin, who WITT
messed the Iowa Minnesota game at lows
City Saturday, talked in his usual loqua-
cious mood before the game. He declined
to express an opinion upon the probable
result, Of the Minnesota Wisconsin game;
expressed his inability to predict the OUT
come Of the Wisconsin, Chicago contest,
and said that he was not the best prophet
for the Michigan Wisconsin game.
Later King ''loosened' to an unprece.
denied degree. After handing his GUS
tonary bouquet to Michigan (King always
praises his opponents) the badger coach
said he thought the game would be very
close. He stated that the Wisconsin team
was rounding to nicely, and would be in
Wolverines.
King was asked whether he regarded the
Minnesota game seriously.
II always regard the Minnesota game
seriously" he replied. 1.-The fact that you
lost the Nebraska game is no reason for
the gopher rooters sending up wall about
the Wisconsin and Michigan games being
a cinch for Minnesota's opponents. You
have about good material as you had
last year, and just as good a chance OF
winning out"
There was circumstantial evidence as
well in regard to Kings opinion of Min
nesota. The fact that the week before
the Michigan. contest, popularity regarded
as the badgers hardest game Of the year,
he decided to watch the gophers instead Of
the wolverines, was taken by Minnesotans
as an indication that King did not regard
the Minnesota game a cinch.
After the game Saturday, King was loud
in his praises of the gophers. AS preVi-
ously remarked, King usually has kind
word for his opponents. He said that the
gophers played faster game against Iowa
than he had seen them play in two years.
He gave especial praise to Flynn, Rogers
and Harris for their Individual work.

BADGERS NOT YET IN FORM.

Madison, Wis. Oct. 27.-The Wisconsin, foot
ball team defeated the Kansas university eleven
Saturday afternoon by of SO to 0.
The badgers played a good game, but they
far from being In the condition of former Wis
co1lsin teams at this stage of the During
the first half their backs lacked spirit and
unity. but in the second half they were more ag-
eressivc. and their team work more et-
fective.
Long, who played tackle during the second
half, made the most spectacular. play of the
game, a, of 65 yards, which nearly scored q
touchdown.
The badgers used their. tackle play repeatedly
and to good advantage. In this play Haumerson,
right tackle drops back from the line and either
carries tile ball himself OF assists in opening
gaps for. one of the backs to get through. s
The playing of Vandcrboom, Moffatt and Ju-
nea,r of Wisconsin frequently brilliant. For
Kansas Captain, Vincent Fullback Love, Quar-
terback pooler and Hicks at left end all did
splendid wo1k.
The jayhawkers were rather outclassed' in
weight but partially made up for this defect by
their quick, snappy playing. The field was
heavy with mud and the weather was threaten
ing, making the day unfavorable for good, fast
football. The lineup follows:
The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1902-10-27

the gophers showed their mettle. They
carried the ball straight up the field one
hundred yards, including ten for ofrside,
and planted it behind the line for the sec
ond touchdown. Rogers again kicked goal
and it was u to 0. s.
The next score came so quickly that
Iowa gasped for breath. Rogers caught
the kickoff and ran the ball to the center
of the field. Sig punted, the ball going
past Jones and rolling behind Iowa's line.
Ochiltree punted out to Thorpe at the
center of the field, and Davies on the
first play got through the left tackle for a
touchdown. Rogers interference aiding
materially in the long run. Rogers then
kicked his third goal and the score was
10 to o.
Here for the first time. Iowa threatened
Minnesota's goal line. On the first play
after the kickoff, Iowa got the ball at
Minnesota's 25-yard line for holding, and
the hawkeyes gained ten yards before
the gopher line stiffened enough to hold
for three downs. Ochiltree tried two
place kicks in succession. The first was
blocked but the Hawkeyes retained the
ball. and after another futile attempt to
rush the gopher line. the second trial at
a field goal was made. Again the gophers
tore up the hawkeye line and blocked the
kick This time Irsfleld got the ball at the
45-yard line, and three plays Melted the
gophers thirty yards Then time was
called for the first half.
~.. iowa's Brief Squirt
Iowa made the usual losing teams squirt
at the beginning Of the SECOND half. It
Buckley carried Thorpe's kickoff back
thirty yards, and Hollenbeck got through
Schacht for twelve yards more. A couple
Of. exchange Of punts followed, and a
quarterback kick by Iowa went out of
bounds on Mnnesotas 3O-yard line.
Davies dashed round for sixty yards
straight, at the end of which Smith was
IoWa's goal line. Rogers missed the goal.
IrsfieId Round the End
Another change Of punts followed the
kickoff. and then Irsfield behind splendid
interference, shot round right end for
thirty yards of territory. Davies circled
left end for ten more, and Irsf1eld put an
other five-yard mark behind him." The
ball was on the 2O-yard line now, and
the gophers again resorted to line
smashes. Smith soon went over for a
third touchdown, and Rogers kicked the
goal, making the score % to Q.
Soon after the next kickoff Minnesota
fumbled on her 40-yard line, and Waist
took cWarren's place. 1rsfield's bad ankle
finally gave out and he was carried from
the field, O'Brien taking his place. Iowa
soon lost the ball. and Davies tore off
round left end. OBrien made ten round
right. and Schacht got into the game,
smashing right tackle for eighteen yards
In two plays. O'Brien shot round Coul-
lizards end for ten yards, and planted the
ball square: behind the goal posts before
he. was downed: Rogers missed goal,
score 81 to 0.
Time was called soon after with the ball

Never was more surprising reversal Of
form shown than that displayed by Min
nesota at Iowa City Saturday. Six touch
downs and four goals tells the story. The
1istless, tagging players Of week before
pranced about like lot Of 2-year- Odds,
and fairly ran circles around their Oppon-
entS.
The Minnesota rOoters at Iowa City
were scared before the game. Iowa limited
Gophers. They boldly asserted that their
team the best the institution had ever
produced, and while the majority of the
HaWkeyes did not Openely predict a VIC
tory for their eleven, few, more outspok-
en- than the rest, showed by word and
manner that they expected to win. Then
, the story flew around the streets that
team would beat the Gophers Driven
Hawkeyes admitted that the wolf
stories sent out from Iowa City were not
entirely founded on facts.
Then the rooters learned that KnoWl-
ton would not go into the game on account
Of trouble with his tonsis. that Gray had a
muscle bruise which might put him out Of
, the game before ten minutes Of play, that
. Irsfield's ankle was in bad shape, that
Davies was soft and might not last, and
that Flynn'sknee still bothered him.
But for these facts the Gophers would
have paid slight attention to the tales Of
the strength of the Iowa eleven. With
their own team crippled, however, and
Iowa presumably strong, the outsome
looked doubtful. A score of "a to seemed
a practical impossibility.
Cripples Manage to Last.
That such a score was made was due to
several causes. The Minnesota cripples

comparison between the elcvens is hardly posi-
ble but the big score was due more to the dis
organized condition OF the visitors than to Cor
nelfs strength. The team did not arrive in
Ithaca from its long trip until after midnight
and every player was completely tired out when
the game began.

Immediately after the kick off, Prince

attacks, and after ten minutes of this
style Of play, supplemented with few
brilliant end runs, Foull1e got by Column
