The annual Thanksgiving football
contest between Drake University and
Ames college was the most interesting
and largest attended game in Iowa,
fully 6, 900 witnessed the struggle. The
first half ended for Drake to nothing
for Ames, but in the last half Ames
made two touch downs witha final score
Of II to 6 in their favor The teams
were as evenly matched as they could
be. of course Ames has an old seasoned
team which has been playing many
years, while the Drake team is practl-
cally new team; so boys keep your
eye on Drake next year. Most OF the
credit is due John Griffith.
