MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 21.-showing
the best form of the season and the
best exhibition of the open game seen
on Northrup field today, Minnesota
outplayed the Carlisle Indians at their
own game today and won by a score
of IL to 6.
Minnesota used the forward pass
often and with greater effect than the
Indians. They made several forward
passes Of forty yards and four touch
downs were directly attributed to
these plays. Minnesota also tore
round holes in the Indians line and
outplayed the straight football. After
the first few attempts Minnesota cas-
lily foiled Carlisle's fake plays.

that considerable complaint has been

MISSOURI NURSING HIGH HOPES
Expects 60 Win Championship Of the
Missouri valley.

COLUMBIA, Mo-, Oct. ~29.-(special) y
Ames alone seems to stand between the
Tigers and the championship OF the Mis-
souri, valley. This rs the way Missouri root
ers are doping" the game now, for most
OF the mare pulling on Iowa to beat Ne
braska at Iowa City next Saturday. They
figure that II Iowa can put the Cornhuskers
out of the running and Missouri can defeat
Ames, the. Tigers will have pretty easy
sailing with Drake, Washington and Kan
sas, the last three games on the schedule.
But the whipping Of Ames is the bug
boar of the whole theory. The Aggtes, who
have held the championship of Iowa for the
last three years, are out after revenge for
their unexpected defeat two weeks ago at
the hands OF a certain little Cornell college.
They have lost all the oyer-confidence they
ever had, and realize that their prestige in
Iowa will depend upon their showing
against the eleven that defeated their most
dreaded enemy, Iowa university.
Missouri, according to the dope avail
able, has an even chance to win from Ames.
The Tigers will only be minus two OF their
regulars when the teams lineup-Graves and
Driver-and Monilaw has a squad Of thirty
seven men to fill their places with. The
high grade of this years substitutes was
shown in the Iowa game and the places
vacated by these two stars can be filled
without weakening the team. Ewing and
Wilder can.ably take care of Graves place
at fullback, while Idler and Burrus are two
capable ends for Drivers position. Ristine,
the burly center, who was injured in the
Iowa game, will probably be in the fray
next Saturday, but Hill, his understudyi
can take his place at any moment without
weakening the line.
This weeks practice in the Tiger camp
has been with a view of strengthening the
offense. The defense, with a line averaging
1876 pounds from tackle to tackle, seems In
Vulnerable, and 1t is hard for Missourians
to see where Ames can gain consistently OF
line plays. The defense for the forward
pass, one of the Tiger weak spots in the
Iowa game, has been improved by practice
against the Ames formations, which AS
%sistant Coach Anderson brought back from
the Ames-South Dakota game last Satur'
day. The offense has been bolstered up
particularly in the kicking line, unit
"Puny'' Bluck, the big tackle, has become
a dangerous factor in the goal kicking line
anywhere within the forty-five-yard line
His forty-yard placement against lows
stamped him as the Tiger find of the sea
son, even aside from his wonderful speed
and aggressiveness, and his heavy boo
will likely count in the scoring column
Saturday.
The officials for the game have beer
selected and are: A. d. Bonnefield, Kan
sas City, referee; George Bryant, Coe col
lege, umpire; A. r. Hamilton, Kansas City
field judge; T. w. Burckhalter, Columbia
head linesman.

JOLT o FOOT BALL CONFERENCE
M~issOuTi Valley Organization May
Soon Go to Pieces.

IOWA CITY, Ia, Oct. 29.-(Special)-A
small sized revolution in the Missouri Val
ley conference Is threatened and within a
short time It will cease to exist or harmony
will reign. Three schools are badly dis
gruntled over the various interpretations
given rules and the existence of the as
ISOLATION is seriously endangered.
Nebraska, Kansas and Drake are the
schools wishing a show down. The dis
regard of the rules shown, by Ames in
dicates that the Aggies think little of the
organization. Last spring Drake endeav-
ored to shock the conference by sending a
challenge to the other schools that 1t ex-
pected to play a man on the bae ball team
who would not sign the clause provided
for I'm the conference constitution. No at
tention was given the challenge.
A definite investigation is going IN Ia
see whether the conference is a reality OF
merely a paper arrangement. Some of
the schools were angered at Iowa's action
in not being willing to play the University
of Missouri under the Missouri valley
rules, claiming that the Hawkeyes failed
to have much respect for the organization,
Missouri has been attacked from Other
quarters for a ''hOlier-than-thou' attitude
and Clark w. Hetherington's enemies dc
not hesitate to censure the show me- in
s~titution for the methods employed In
running the Tiger athletics,
Iowa will not enter into the basket bal
conference of the representatives of the
Missouri valley conference at Kansas City
next Saturday for the simple reason that
the schedule to be arranged tomorrow IN
the Victoria hotel at Chicago will probably
keep the Hawkeye five more than busy
this winter.

SECRETARY ROOT is SARCASTIC
RidicuIe is HeRped Upon BryRn's
Latest Pet Theories.

CINCINNATI, o., Oct. 9.-Secretary OF
State Root spoke to a large crowd at Mu-
sic hall here tonight. The meeting was held
under the auspices Of the. Citizens Taft
club.
A parade which preceded the meeting in
cluded members of the Citizens Taft club
and Cincinnati Blaine club.
Secretary Root was introduced by Rob
ert Reynolds, president of the Citizens
Taft club. Secretary Root, in his speech.
first took up the alleged dissension in
Ohio, the Foraker matter being the first,
the negro question the second and the
liquor question, a purely local issue, the
third. He urged that n these dissensions
existed as reported they should be laid
aside for the duty of American citizenship.
These three elements were as but drops OF
water In the greater Issues which made uI
the campaign.
The climax OF the speech was a review
Of the public career OF Judge Taft.
He declared that Taft was better pre-
pared than any other man 10 succeed 10
the presidency and 70 carry out the policy
OF Mckinley and Roosevelt. As an ex-
ecutor and as an administrator he declared
that Taft was without a peer.
Sarcasm was hurled at the Bryan the.
cries as he took them up in turn.
"shall We close our factories and bank
rupt our merchants by reducing the tariff,
to get rid Of the trusts. or shall We prose-

IOWA NOT IN BEST OF FORM
Coach CatIin stops Practice TO Tell
Men They Play Like Dubs.

IOWA CITY, Ia, Oct. 29.-(Special) jim
the final scrimmage practice before the
Nebraska game the varsity showed up
poorly and the freshmen for the greater
part Of the thirty-minute clash held the
regulars even.
Twice the varsity scored, a splendid
eighty-yard run by Fullback Hazard bring
ing the first touchdown, and a bit of brill
liant team play the second. For sixty
yards the regulars CARRIED the ball in
good, consistent foot ball to the goal line.
This was the one redeeming part Of the
practice.
Fifteen hundred students filled the stands
and gave the yells and songs for the teams.
TIL demonstration of Iowa spirit In this
novel manner was the best seen here in
years.
But the hard roofing OF the students in
the stands failed to spur the men on to the
foot ball of which they at times seemed
capable. Coach Catlin at one time stopped
the play and calling the varsity to one
side gave them a hard heart-to-heart talk,
telling them in no uncertain terms that
they were playing like -''dubs." A brace
was noticeable after that and in fifteen
minute more the eleven worked the ball
over the first-year mems goal by a series
of plays executed in better form.
At times Catlin's splendid system of
plays would work for good gains and then
again the varsity would ball them up
in awful fashion. The 4ne charged high
and slowly on more than, one occasion, and
the freshmen backs seem to have little
trouble in finding holes. After the second
touchdown Right Halfback Murphy of the
freshmen team shot back to the varsity
/ forty-five-Yard on the kickoff in a beauti-
full lodging run through the entire Hawk
eye eleven. He was brought down from
behind after sidestepping Quarterback
Stewart.
The indifferent work of the varsity has
slightly discouraged the undergraduates
and the prospects for a victory over Ne
braska are not bright. The famous Iowa
helping spirit was in evidence on rare

CREIGHTON WORKING HARD
Local Team Strenuously Prepares for
Denver Eleven.
. STIFF CONTEST IS CERTAIN
Grizzlies Are Champions of Rocky
Mountains and Are Confident of
Defeating the Omaha
Team.

Tho Creighton coaches are putting their
men through some mighty stiff practice
this week in anticipation OF Saturdays
game with the Rocky mountain champions
as the Denver university team Is now
styled.
This title has been we'll merited, as a
perusal Of their score boards will testify
to their supremacy over their neighbortng
opponents. In their first scheduled game
they completely overwhelmed the ever
strong high school team OF Denver in two
short halves TO the tune OF A to O. As
the high school eleven ranks with the
best minor college elevens Of Colorado, the
grizzly warriors must have played some
exceedingly fast ball 10 run up such a
large score in SO short a period of time.
The Colorado Aggies were the next vic
tins to add new laurels to the mountaineers
Of the Rocky district of foot ball terri
tory. The Aggies were certainly an ag-
gressive lot, but the Grizzlies were out to
win, and the farmer boys had a mighty
hard time In holding down the score to 16
to 0. This game affords the s~ide-liners
some foot ball dope, since the powerful
Colorado university team had the hardest
kind of a time in squeezing out an s to
victory over the Aggies.
But their real claim to the championship
title lies in their conquest of the former
Rocky mountain champions, the Utah uni
verslty eleven, coached by Michlgan's star
tackle. Joe Maddox. In this game the
Mormons were the first to cross their goal
line, but It availeth not, as the Denverites
won out on consistent playing, tallying sew.
enteen points to the eX-champions' fifteen
points.
Denver Is Confident.
with practically a green squad, save for
three of last years regulars in the lineup
the prospects for a winning team were fai
from being bright. But now the western
critics consider them able to clean up the
best teams in the west, and the Denver
players are speeding towards Omaha con-
fident of defeating the Creighton clever
next Saturday afternoon at the Vintor
Street grounds.
Confidence. i'm the Denver team is mo-
lacking in their managerial sanctum, al
that august parsonage, the manager, hal
signed articles to play the Carlisle indians
a post-season game in Denver on Decem
Der 5. By means of this game the Creigh
ton followers expect to get a line on Ne
braska, Iowa, Kansas and Missouri, a,
well as a number of eastern teams, and
accordingly. expect TO see the local lad
give a good account of themselves in tn,
Denver match.
To help win next Saturdays game is tn
ambition of the Creighton moleskin war
riors. With one or two exceptions tn
players are rounding into form and shoul,
play the game of their lives against tn
mountaineers. Joe Lynch and Morgan
thaler are now on the hospital list an,
some fear is entertained that these oil
reliable fixtures will not start the game
Lynch, who was picked for last years all
Minnesota team, will leave a considerable
hole in the firing line II not able to do
= his foot ball togs next Saturday.
