Audubon Q. Coon Rapids 0.
Last Saturday the Audubon foot
ball team went across the country TO
play off the rub" game with their
old time rivals at Coon Rapids. And
these two teams in the four games
played have two games apiece. This
being tine deciding game put both
teams upon their mettle and the re-
suit shows how evenly matched the
teams were. Coon Rapids had the
advantage of playing a heavier team
upon their home grounds while the
Audubon boys were tired out after
Still they went into the game with
the.r old time dash and played their
opponents to standstill. The game
was greatly delayed by Coon Rapids
taking out so much time. The crowd
kept encroaching on the field and
spelling number of good plays for
both teams. There were several per-
sons on the grounds whose loyalty to
upon the field and interfere with the
game. Such should not be tolerated
anywhere as it spoils the game in the
eyes of the lover of fair play. Dry
den narrowly missed a place kick
from the Is yard line and this was the
nearest approach to scoring by either
team. Neither side could make con-
sistent Roadway against the opposing
team. Both teams gained most on
end runs. Earhart and T.. Kile play
