ball squarely between the posts, and
that Hahn failed on goal meant but
little. for the game closed with Pull
man II, while st. Louis found in her
stocking the first goose egg she had
received in two years.
News of the victory was heralded in
Pullman by the ringing of bells, and
eleven long blasts from the college
whistle told the story of the score to
the anxious residents of the college
town.
Those who witnessed the game. and
who know football, state that Pullman
played brilliant game. both defensive
and offensive, every minute of the 70
minutes of play, and believe she could
win from st. Louis rain or shine. The
fortunes of the game, however, can

Pullmanites Win Magnifi-
cent Contest by Score
of II to o. As4

The State College eleven, by its
magnificent victory over st. Louis at
Spokane on Christmas day, has placed
Northwest football in the class with
the best in the land. ranking the W.
sc. team with the top notchers of the
nation. For in that Christmas day
contest the widest hopes Of the sup
porters of the crimson and gray were
realized, and the team proved the
claims that had been made for it, that
It would make a showing that would
be a credit to the school it represent
ed. But it did more than that; it not
only made a creditable showing, bu
it made the champions of the middle
west dip their colors in the dust of de-
feat. and brought to Pullman not only
the championship of the west, but OF
the middle west as we'll.
There were few who dared to hope
hat Pullman could wrest victory from
the vaunted Missourians, for no game
had ever been played by which to
gauge the relative merits of the two
sections. The victory. therefore, was
all the sweeter to the men of the west,
and fof years to come it will be tale
to hand own to those who come after
Despite the weather conditions OF
Wednesday, when rain made slush OF
the snowfal of the previous night
and water stood in pools on the battle
field, 1000 people went to Natatorlum
park to see the first game of football
/ between the east and west.
The teams lined UP at two o'clock,
and from the first call of time 1t was
battle royal, with the real thing IN
football being put up by each team.
During the entire first half the FULL
NANTES put up game of defense,
imbued with the apparent idea that
they were there to keep the st. LOUIS
score as low as possible, but when the
whistle sounded for the close of the
half, and neither team had scored, the
frenzied mob on the sidelines realized
that st. Louis with all her prestige
was not better team than Pullman.
When the second half opened Pull
man had taken the measure of the
easterners, and a knowledge Of their
own strength put them on the offensive
and gave them the spirit of victory.
For every minute of the time Pullman
played football, and played it in way
that brought many of the 1000 valiant
