team was defeated by the heavy team
from Doane college. The St. Marys
team showed its regular form and out

department of the game with the ex-
ception of luck. as two touchdowns
and a safety were simply donated to
them.

as Isenman, the big right guard, was
on the sick list and Monroe, the var
sity center, was shifted to right tackle,
and this arrangement being a new one
necessarily weakened the team work
particularly on defense, as Doane
made most of her gains through the
safeguard, Falkenburg.
Captain Walsh won the toss and
chose the west goal and received the
kick with series of shift plays which
the North erners could not solve,
scored a touchdown in three minutes
and duplicated the trick in eight min
utes of play, failing to kick the last
goal. When within five yards of an

during this half did the locals lose the
ball on fumb1es and let the visitors
