the Postal had captured each game.
Excitement was at fever heat dur
ing the games and large crowd
of rooters in attendance aided
greatly in stimulating the bowlers.
1t was a decided victory for Cap
tain Percy Oke of the Postals. for
he had his men well in hand and

That Tonopah will soon be in

evening when Arthur Raycraft and

from Vancouver, Wash. The mes

partially constructed out of parts
of machinery taken from the plant
of Mr. White. On Thanksgiving
night White received messages from

distance. So White took part of his
instruments to the Raycraft station.
Messages were received from Mare
| Island, st. Helens' Ore, and then
came Vancouver.
1t is impossible to send, messages
this distance as yet, but Mr.. Ray
chaft stated today that within a
very short time he hoped to be able

to followers of the eleven. The red
and blue team at times lacked the
dash shown in several games this sea-
son, and some of its plays We're mar
red by fumbling and the poor hand
ling of punts.
On the other hand. Cornell played
more dashing bame than was ex-
pected. Her interference to help the
runner with the ball was at times
almost perfect. on several occasions
it looked as if the Ithaca men would
succeed in carrying the ball across the
goal line for touchdowns, but the
Pennsylvanians rallied when things
looked dangerous and held the big
red team from New York state re-
peatedly. Then Cornell would resort
to a goal from placement, but it sue
ceeded only twice in the five or six
times it was tried.
Except a wing shift used by Cor

football features. The forward pass

Missionaries Lose TO State College
Warriors by s TO o Score.

NarriOrS Dy 10 u score.
Whitman college yesterday after
noon took the cellar championship of
the northwest college conference in
football, in a game that might have
been won by the Missionaries if.
Well. there are several ifs. Cox
did not play. That disputed question
was solved early in the game. Also
w 5. C. did play. Played hard, clean
ball; but not nearly so clever, save
the one forward pass as did Whitman.
Eight to nothing was the score.
But it does not tell the uphill game
Whitman played in the last half, nor
does it recount that winning ball the
locals dished up in the first two Pc
riods.
Right from the start Whitman car
ried the ball into the farmers terri
tory. and they were guessing, too. But
beef told, at times, and while Whit
man made the most yardage, taking
the game through. and Niles outpunt-
ed Foran, the visitors got away with
the long end of the score.
A forward pass from Keinholz to
Buck in the third quarter gave w. S.

the 55 yard line, right in the center
OF the field. The ball bounced, when
caught on the pass, but Buck nailed
it again, and sped down the sideline
for the goal, with splendid interfer-
ence. Proudfoot, playing safety for
Whitman, was not there, he was not
to be seen. as far as that was con-
cerned. and it was Johnson who beat
the field down and tackled the run
ner just as he crossed the last chalk
mark.
TIL next score came when Gilbreath
squarely in front of he goal, booted
the ball between and over in the last
period of play. Whitman had loos-
ened on her playing, seemingly. and
the first score made the second possi-
BILE.
The game was clean from start to
finish. and a crowd of 1900 people
witnessed the contest, which from first
to last was good football. The off,
cials were good, the field was good,

better.-Walla Walla Union.
