he cannot break bread with the

BY being more expert in the new
rules and tactics of football, Whit
man college won a hard fought game
from the University of Washington,
yesterday at Walla Walla by a score
of IL to g.
Half dozen Pendleton boys wit
messed the game and all pronounce
1t most spectacular even from
start to finish and all declare that
Whitman's victory was largely due TO
the fact that she played a modern
game, showed great efficiency in the
new rules and tactics, while the Uni
versity team played largely the old
and much slower game.
The following from the Walla Wal
la Union gives a good review of the
game, which was a great event at
Walla Walla and which placed the
Whitman team among the strongest
in the northwest. The Union saws:
Clearly outplayed in every de-
partment of the game, the football
team of University of Washington
went down to defeat yesterday after
noon before the husky gridiron gi-
ants of Whitman college. As noted
above, the score was 1913 in favor Of
the Missionaries.
1t was great game and one that
will be remembered in the football
annals of Whitman college for many
days, and for as many reasons.
The
feature was the united and enthusi-
astic support given the team by the
business men of the city. Never in
the history of the institution has
there been so much enthusiasm dis
played on the part of the people of
the city as at yesterdays game. The
business men formed in pro-
and marched to the field in body.
Another thing that makes the game
noteworthy is that the far-famed
University of Washington has at last
been compelled to taste humiliating
defeat at the hands of the little COL
Iege in Walla Walla. This is the first
time this has occurred since 1901.
when they were defeated by a score
of II to O.
Hundreds i'm Attendance.
The enthusiasm displayed at yes
erdays game was tremendous. The
1000 people who crowded the bleach
srs and sidelines seemed to have come
o Ankeny field with determination
q make all the noise possible. and
hey certainly succeeded. The west
'leachers were mass of waving ban
hrs and flying colors.
That Whitman clearly outplaved
heir opponents is shown by the fact
hat they carried the ball more than
our times as far as Washington, and
My punted half as much. Whitman
arried the ball consistently a dis
ance Of 90 yards without a break.
arH in the second half, losing the
all 10 yards from the goal line.
Washington, on the other hand.
layed a punting game almost exclu-
lively, with the exception of a short
ime in the latter part of the second
alf when they advanced the ball As
ards, and Grimm made a place kick
or their second score.
Whitman used the forward pass
several times for good
aims on Washington. Whitman only
ook out time twice during the entire
anne, while in each half Washington
xceeded their limit three times, and
two yard penalties for taking out
me, lost about 12 yards.
