Game Managed Well.
The game was called shortly after
2:30 and although Oskaloosa's referee
Gus Drinkle, was objected to, he was
used until Perry Asher, the regular Of
fetal had arrived. The objections
arose over the fact that Mr.. Drinkle's
brother was the coach of the team.

ed in keeping the spectators off the
field yet the excitement was SO great
that this was an impossibility.

three yards. Right Tackle Russell
made an endeavor to break through
the right end but failed. Ramsey fol-
lowed through the left side but was
stopped by Glew after five yards had
been travelled. Hammer allowed
Swingle but one yard and Ramsey
failed through the line. Russell
again tried, but the ball was awarded
to Ottumwa on downs. Johnson was
the first to puncture Oskaloosa's line.
He did it for two yards. Ream fol-
lowed through the right side for four
more yards and in quick succession
