nell game was the center of interest IN
Ames team dill extremely we'll against
Erinnell, running up an excellent score.
Erinnell played plucky game. such a
game as she can always be depended
upon to play. Carson, who is the best
Individual PLAYER on the Grinnell team
BY long odds, and Benson. an excellent
end were both out Of the game and
the Grinnell team showed the effect OF
their absence. In the face of this, the
Erinnell players did very well to score
pn the heavy lAmes team Their touch
down was made on straight football.
TOO, nothing of fiuky nature. End
runs brought the scarlet and black to
within striking distance and Webb was
nut over by s,me excellent helping.
Ames used her advantage Of weight
70 excellent purpose. blowing steadlly
lhru the lighter Grinnell team to her
louchdowns. Ames was, however,
weaker than The expected to be on de-
lense. especially on the TANKS. TINS is
weakness which Will tell much
Axainst her. II Coach Ristine is unable
% remedy it before the thanksgiving
lay game with Drake University.
Grinnell has now little chance of be-
ing able to defeat Drake University.
but she should have an equal chance
with Simpson College on Thanksgiv-
hg day, If her players are all IN good
Ondition.
Drake University played much the
Expected game with Cornell College. a
nit weaker than her best on account
Af the abgente of some of her regulars
from the linN-up. Cornelfs success IN
ocoring illustrates the tendency in most
Df the games this year for both teams
90 make points.
Coe was al much the State Normals
waterloo this year as she has been In
Nrevious years. The State Normal mas
{ seldom been able to solve the secondary
defense of Cos. With stronger team
this year this n last and with apparently
well GROUNDED hopes for victory. Coe
held the Noimal's advance and smash
I'd thru her lire for repeated touch
downs.
Penn College made fine rally In the
SECOND half Of the game with Mon
mouth and held the Monmouth score
10 no advance in that half.
The Simp ,on- Iowa game resulted as
expected, except that Simpson scored
1 safety on the Hawkeyes. With two
Sr three exc options the Iowa team play
Id a good game. Jones was much I'M
proved in condition and made many
long runs. The entire game consisted
principally If end runs and was highly
satisfactory to the spectators.
An intere sting feature of the game
was the comparison afforded between
Sowa's team last year and this year.
Simpson hid apparently as strong a
team this year as last. Bert Kennedy
her star ia exile was remembered on
Iowa field for the good gains he made
thru the Iowa line and around the
Hawkeye ia .clkles last year, when Simp-
SON was defeated by the low score OF
10 to 0. This year Kennedy was un-
able to duplicate his excellent offensive
work Of last year and Simpson did not
threaten the Iowa goal az she did once
or twice la t year.
Chicago has earned the palm this
year FOR paying erratic ball. and she
certaialy had one of her off days Sat
urday. The Haskell Indians, which
were defeated by Nebraska by good
score and who left the impression be-
hind at Lincoln that they were not
well coached, played game that made
the Maroon rooters feel very shaky at
times. Another bunch Of rooters had
the scares last Saturday, too, the Mich
igan shouters at the Ohio game. To
have team that you have run up thlr-
ty-sdx points on in the first half turn
back your finest efforts in the second
half, and twice come very near scoring
on your team, re- enforced by all the
ableet regulars, the last chance to
score being nipped in the bud only by
the call Of time, Is calculated to make
things very interesting. That Is what
Ohio did to Michigan.
Minnesota played another queer
game to match the Beloit game. The
precise value Of two such games as
Minnesota played against Beloit and
Lawrence may be known to the Min
nesota coaches, but 1t 10 rather mysti-
flying to the general public why team
that has but one game a week should
be allowed to play horse IN two Of those
weekly games.
Wisconsin, Notre Dame and Nebras-
ka all played well in easy games. Mis-
souri, and Washington played tie
game that showed considerable
strength in both teams
Harvard did better than was expect
ed OF her in the Pennsylvania game,
her beefy line gingering up to some
effect. Princeton played fine game
against hAyfayette, Dewitt. her star
ana captain, adding to the one touch
down that Lafayette is accustomed OF
late years to holding Princeton to by
dropping difficult field goal. Yale
dia we'll In the game with Syracuse
ana q battle royal promises for next
Saturday, when Yale and Princeton
meet. Newton showed his presence a,
Lehigh by tieing Cornell in nothing
to nothing game.
Among the high schools. Grinnell
probably lost the championship she
held last year by her defeat by Oska-
loosa. Davenport played strong
game against Marengo and Ida Grove
defeated the strong Harlan team. Amss
and North Des Mcines played an in
teresting tie game. Marshalltown easi-
" defeated Toledo.
