hero of the day, even the Omaha rooters

OF the game. His lightning work in carry

carried the ball in line plunges seventy

the whole organization starting its plays
with greater speed. The four halfbacks in
their work on end runs did splendidly, only
the good work on Underhin playing far

time after time. The forward pass as dem
Onstrated by the Chicago lads was a good
ground gamer for the first two quarters
and was worked successfully several times
after that.
The real specs Of the Chicago backs and
ends did not show up until they got into
defensive playing Although omaha tried
fewer end runs because Klopp, the fast
little quarter, had a lame knee, those at
