SOUTH DAKOTA TEAM
HAS BRIGHT OUTLOOK
Vermillion Institution Is in the
Game to Win This =
Year. .

Vermillion, S. D., Oct. 20.-The show
ing Of the university football team
against Yankton was very satisfac-
tory to the supporters Of the team,
who did not expect that the locals
would score six touchdowns against
team that held Dakota Wesleyan to
goal from the field in only five min
,utes less playing time than the game
here Monday.
The team has had no hard luck with
injuries, and not a player has been
compelled to absent himself from prac-
tice once because of a sprain or bruise
Of any kind, but Captain Harry Brown,
the big left tackle, is confined to his
room with an attack Of the mumps.
The new rules and the new game
gave, great satisfaction to the rooters
Monday. The open play, and the chance
to see who carries the ball on every
work and punting delights the fans
here. The lack Of injuries and bruises
thus Ear, and the small amount Of time
taken out, is another source of keen
satisfaction to those who hitherto have
always attended games a little appre-
hensive Of injury to the contestants.
|, Reports from other sections of the
state seem to indicate that the same
conditions apply to all the football
played in the state than ever before.
But one high school has suspended the
game, and that is at the local school,
which never has had a strong team. :
+ The university team has a bunch Of
likely drop-kickers, and the kicking
department is stronger than ever be-
fore, which means much under the new
play. Scrimmage practice is held near
| ~ every evening, and the men are fast
becoming accustomed to the new play
| The next important game is with
Ames, and the, supporters Of the team
are looking forward to that game with
keen interest. Everybody here believes
| that despite the reported strength of
the Iowa aggies that the locals will make
team for the next two weeks will be
in preparation for that game.

Military School Team Made Their
Only Score on a Drop
Kick.

Faribault, Mimi, Oct. 20.-Shattuck
defeated ST. Paul Central high here to-
day, by a score Of 4 to 0. Post, the
Shattuck right, tackle, standing on the
3O-yard line, booted the ball over for
the only score. ~2"'-''> ~ ~
This, however, does not indicate the
relative strength; of the two teams.
Shattuck used the game to try out
new men, try out the defense and made
the game s bdng eam pnred tae
ularly instead of rushing the ball, and
when within striking distance, Post
was given trials at drop kicking. The
halves were only twenty minutes. So
much time was consumed in inficting
penalties and by delays in getting off
kicks that it is doubtful if there was
more than twenty minutes of actual
play.
er mediocre In the handling Of
kicks, shattuck did the better work.
Once only, did "shad' back tumble.
to go over his head, and fumbled two
others. Shattuck's defense was given
good try-out, and showed up salts
factorily. Not once did St. Paul gain
her ten yards by rushing the ball. Once
they worked the short kick successful
ly, when Captain McGregor recovered
the ball. Once only did they prove
dangerous, and that when Kipp
dropped a punt and McGregor fell on
the ball for his team. Failing to gain
they attempted a drop kick, which the
Shattuck forwards blocked. Shat
tuck worked Post out well on drop
kicking, and his work indicates that
something good may come from that
! n
I Out of six attempts, one counted,
blocked. Only during the last five
minutes did Shattuck attempt to rush
the ball. A brilliant sprint Of Kipp
! Of forty yards in returning punt, and
a run of thirty yards around end by
Captain Johnston, twice placed the
ball on St. Paul's 10-yard line. The
Failure Of the forward pass, and Hud-
son 8 tumble, however, lost the
chances to score.
Shattuck should have scored after
Kipp s fair catch on the 35-yard line.
Tolman, however, who was holding the
ball, allowed it to touch the ground
and spoiled the attempt. The for.
ward passes, and short kicks on both
sides failed wretchedly, with the one
exception, when Captain McGregor re.
covered quarterback kick. The high
captain turnout played splendid game
| and deserves much credit for his fast
work.
! The game was unfortunately marreo
by the unsportsmanlike conduct of q
party Of visiting "rooters.'
The affair has produced SO much i'll
feeling, that it is. doubtful of the high
school team will be placed on the 10
cal schedule again. The lineup:
