to win the middle-western championship.
Minnesota scored a touchdown in IA
half and converted the first one into a
goal. Captain McGoyern Of Minnesota

yard line. Crawley was pushed over for
a touchdown and Page kicked goal.
McGovern OF Minnesota broke his collar

half, and was replaced by Deveau.
Minnesota won the toss and chose the

Chicago's right end for twenty yards, and
Chicago was penalized five yards. Stevens
made five yards on a double pass.
McGovern punted to Page on Chicago's
fifteen-yard line, and the latter was run
out of bounds. Both lines seemed invul-
nerable, and the teams were alternately
forced to punt. McGovern caught a punt
on Chicago's forty-yard line and was
downed in his tracks. Rosenwald made ten
yards on a fake kick, and McGovern made
fifteen yards on a forward pass.
Pickering went through to the ten-yard

Northwestern Team Defeated in Hard
Battle by Score of Twenty
One to Eleven.

EVANSTON, ILL.,, Oct. sO.-wisconsin de-
feated Northwestern by the score of 81 to
II in a hard gridiron battle on the North
western field today. Wisconsin displayed
more knowledge Of both new and old
foot ball than did their opponents, and the
better seam won. Both teams relied largely
on the old style smashing game and only
now and then was there q flash of the new
and more open game. Wisconsin tried the
forward pass several times M only two OF
these were successful, while Northwest
ern did not use this play until near the
end Of the second half and this lone
attempt failed dismally.
Anderson. the new Wisconsin end, was
the star of the game. His end-runs on end
fake punts gained a yards, while time
after time his punts went far over the
Northwestern fullback's head and aided his
team in scoring. The Northwestern end
were lamentably weak and appeared un-
able to decide whether Anderson would
kick or run with the ball. Several Of
Anderson's runs, from his punting forma-
ton, netted more than twenty-five yards.

Kansas Walks
T.. Over WaShburn
and Wins Easily
Coach Kennedy Uses Straight Foot
Ball and Refuses to Uncover
His Trick Plays.

TOPEKA, Kan, Oct. 30.-CSpecial Tele-
gram .)-Kansas defeated Washburn col
lege here today by a score Of II to- Three
t~ouchdowns, two in the first half and one
in the second, with two goal kicks, made
the total. Fighting against heavy odds in
weight, the Washburn lads put up a ter
rifle struggle, but to no avail. They were
never close enough to the Kansas goal in
possession of the ball to even try for a field
goal. However, twice in the game they
gave the Jayhawker aggregation severe
scares by taking the ball for fifteen and
twenty-yard gains on trick plays. Coach
weede's men had a bunch of their plays,
but could not make them work enough
times in succession to get the cherished
score. 1t was a fierce conflict through
two thirty minute halves, with washburn
fighting on the defense In its own terri
tory most OF the time. Fumbles were fire.
quent, particularly by the locals. Time had
to be taken out many times on account OF
the excessive heat and frequent slight in
juries. The forward pass was tried only
once in the game, Washburn making an
attempt, but losing the bail.
Kennedy's men played almost exclusively
straight foot ball, hitting the line and
rushing the ends. No critic could have
said today that the Kansas team was not
fast, for the plays were worked off all
through the game in speedy fashion. There
were no long runs for ~touchdowns, but
several times Lovett. Dahlene. Magill,
Pleasant and Johnson broke away for gains
of fifteen. twenty and twenty-five yards.
Lovett and Pleasant each carried the ball
once for a distance Of thirty-five yards.
Washburn was expecting to be compelled
to fight the outside pick hard, but to the
surprise OF everyone who wanted to see
this favorite play OF Kennedy's, II was
pulled off but twice and then so quickly
that Washburn did not know what had
happened.
Coach Cole OF Nebraska was known to be
in the bleachers and the Jayhawker quar-
terbacks had evidently been given instruc-
tions to pull off no fancy plays. All three
t~ouehdowns were made by slow pegging
down the field with occasional short
spurts. Only once and that on the first
touchdown, did Kansas maxi a steady
march across the field. Tommy" John
son piloted the squad from his own twenty
yard line straight across the field on short
gains to a touchdown. Smiley was the
one star OF the Washburn team, but Whit
comb and McCarroll, also did great work.
These men took the ball for good gains a
half dozen times, but could not gain con-
secutively. Coach Wesds expressed his
appreciation Of the fight his men had made
against a superior team and praised Ken
nedy's eleven highly.
The uneup was as follows.
