CONFIDENCE BAD
FOR ST. THOMAS
Players Too Appreciative, of Own
Work to Practice in Con-
..,,;,, sistent Manner.
BY "Percy."

The work at st. Thomas has not
been up to expectations during the
past week. The injured have entirely
recovered with the exception of Conmy
who is still hampered with sprained
against Carleton. Notwithstanding the
fact that all the men are in fine con-
dition practicing has been discouraging.
A feeling of oyerconfdence. seems to
pervade the whole team and in fact the
whole school. :. --E 49, }.....
Another bad influence is the know

Impossible to arrange any at this late

readily be seen that St. Thomas has
no cinch on the championship and must
do lot Of good hard work to acquire
the title: The college has the men and

Chicago, Ill, Oct. 21.-Hopes Of
Northwestern rooters were dampened by
the injuries which Captain Rueber and
left halfback Van Ryper received in
the game with Beloit week ago. The
unexpected strength Of the Wisconsin
college team compelled the purple to
play a terrific game in the second half,
with the result that Rueber went out
with an injured knee and Van Ryper
had to leave the game. Rueber has
been threatened with water on the
knee and Van Ryper was SO seriously
hurt that his physician has advised him
never to play football again.
Neither of the men has been able to
get into practice since the game and
| were sent to Madison today to see Chi
cago and Wisconsin play. Rueber de-
clares that he will be in shape for the
Chicago game next Saturday, and Van
Ripper says he intends to be in the Min
nesota game.

the bruising style Of game which Nc
| Cornack teaches his men. It is tear
and plunge from start to finish Of the
| game. Such a style Of game requires
two sets of backs Of equal caliber. Since
! the Beloit game Mccormack has been
trying to develop a second set Of plum.
gers. Several shifts have been tried in
the lineup, but the backs as selected
now seem to be as follows: Ruebel
and Van Ryper regular halfbacks, with
Renolds and Granberg as understudies
and either Blair or Barry at full, with
the Indian, johnson, at quarterback.
4 The one drop Of sweetness in the bit
ter cup which the Northwestern coach
and rooters have drained in the past
week is the return Of Sunny Blair, las
years fullback. He is rapidly round
