INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL
The friends of the Normal Industrial
school have been shocked and disgust
ed with the newspaper articles regard
ing the football game between James,
town college and the home team. The
mildest mis- statement with regard to
the game is quoted from the James
town school notes. we have paid no
attentions to the scurriIious newspaper
accounts of this game which we have
been considering as unauthorized by
any responsible person. The statement
which we quote below seems clearly
to be authorized by someone connected
with jamestown college and we are
forced to give II attention:
With time called while the last and
deciding play was In progress, James
town college football team defeated the
1asr eleven representing the Ellendals
Normal Industrial school at EIlendale
Monday afternoon. score beinx Ii to
IL. Up to the last minute the score
stood IL to 10 in favor of the Industri-
ais men when Full Back Graham for
Jamestown college took the ball for a
line plunge, and pushed and pulled by
his teammates, fell over the goal for
flve points needed to win the game.
Time was called Just after the center
snapped back the leather oval, but ac-
cording to rules the game was con-
tinued until the game ended. 1t was
bitter defeat for Ellendale. James-
town made the trip by auto, three cars
taking the squad Of fourteen. The
Ellendale Normal will play jamestown.

Those who witnessed the game know
the result but, Of course, the outside
public does not know that the home
team Is being misrepresented and. of

to jamestown. We give below a state

The final score was IL to 10 in favor
OF Ehendale In the last twenty sec
onos OF play jamestown did carry the
ball across the Ellendale goal line with
line buck with about three men push
ing the man with the ball This was
plainly against the rule regarding
pushing or pulling the man carrying
the ball and the umpire rightly called
back the play and penalized James
town. Considering that some ten Sec
onds OF actual playing time remained
Jamestown was allowed one more play
but failed to advance the ball and time
was called with the score 10 to 10
In favor OF Ellendale. Yours truly,
L. B. Greene. referee.
In the paragraph quoted from the
jamestown college notes, the statement
Is made that Full Back Graham was
pushed and pulled by his team mates
across the goal line and claimed the
game for that reason. AS a matter OF
fact, for this reason they were penal
lied by their own umpire and did not
win the game. II the statements to the
contrary were authorized by anyone
in connection with the team or the col.
lege, we regret 1t very much. It is
hard to believe, however, that anyone
can be 80 dishonest and so unmanIy
as to deliberately misrepresent a mat
ter OF this kind. Since the representa- !.
tons have been manifest1y incorrect
we are willing to put the best con-
struction upon the fact and say that
the one who made the mis- statement
is ignorant of the rules Of the game.
