Z IOWA BEATS MISSOURI
Fumbles Prevent Higher Score for
the HaWkeye Team.

Columbia, Mo-, Now l6.-Iowa de-
feated Missouri, 10 to 20, on Rollins
field Saturday. Iowa's points were all
made in the first half Missouri's ex-
cellent defense in the second half and
Iowa's two fumbles on Missouri's ten
yard line prevented scoring in the sec
ond half.
Missouri played good defensive

too often her men played listless

The hawkeye tackles We're weak,
and Allen and Gibbs in the Iowa back
field failed to back up the line on

is renewed hope for Missouri for the
annual game between Missouri and

Iowa realizes that this game makes
a reversal Of form necessary if she is
to win over Illinois, and makes the

PURPLE TIES NoTRE DAME
Hoosier Eleven Plays Magnificent
Game on the Defense.


Chicago, Nov. 16.-After playing
over two hours Of the hardest kind of
football Northwestern and Notre
Dame walked off the field at South
Side baseball grounds Saturday as
dusk began to fall with no score to
the credit of either team. The game
was a tie, 0 to O. Both sides played
the best football they knew how, but
the teams were SO evenly matched
that the necessary consistent gains
could not be made to get the ball
across the goal line.
Notre Danes goal was threatened
seriously but twice, both times being
in the first half. In the early. part of
the game Cotton made trial at q
goal from the field from the 3O-yard
line, but the kick fell short The
most serious attempt, however, came
near the end of the first half. For
over five, minutes there was soul-har-
rowing football within the 5-yard
line, but Northwestern could not get
it across altho they made the most
desperate efforts, and finally the call
Of time for the first half ended the
agony. In the second half North
western carried ball no nearer than
the 25-yard line, where it was lost on
downs about a minute before the
close of the game.
Northwestern's goal was threatened
but once, and that was early in the
second half, when Salmon tried a
drop kick. The pass was poor and by
the time the hoosier captain got it
off Kafer was thru and blocked the
ball.

score of 6 to into a victory by a
score Of 10 to 6. ss
It was game remarkably free. from
penalties, only three being imposed
during the entire contest but the last
of the three was enough to turn the
tide of victory.
From the standpoint of good foot
ball playing it was Chicago's game by
long odds The naroons outplayed
the soldiers in every feature Of the
game except defense against line
bucking, and in that particular the ca
diets had only q slight advantage.
In ground gaining Chicago far sur.
passed West Point, the visitors carry
ing the ball more than twice as far as
the soldiers. In punting Eckersall

he bumped into Hacket being unable
to stop. Speik caught up the ball and
ran forty yards toward West Points

to allow the run, but, West Point pro-
tested that Catlin had interfeced with
