CLOUD HELD
MACS" TO A TIE

st. Paul, Mimi. Oct. Sin a game
that was ragged from the start, with
occasional flashes of speed and bril-
liant play, Manchester held the st.
Cloud normal team to a tie score on
Shaw field Saturday afternoon. The
game ended without a score by either
side. A large part of the play was
in st. Clouds territory but the peda-
gogues always held the Macs for
downs when they were near scoring
and kicked the ball out of danger. The
Manchester goal vas never in very
great danger, the normalites succeed
ing in getting the ball inside of the
Macs twenty-five yard line only on
kicks.
The visitors proved to be as strong
as was expected. Their team. although
not as heavy as the M that defeated
the Macs two years ago, was fully as
heavy as the locals and the backfield
was exceptionally strong. The much
touted Manchester line did not prove
to be as invulnerable as was supposed.
The plunging backs of the normal
school went through the Presbyterian
line for gains of from three to nine
yards. The normal school line. how
ever. held almost every time and the
gains made through it were few.

WOMEN
CHEER AT M

Minneapolis. Oct. 2. - Women
should not cheer at football games. 1t
is unwomanly. They should confne
themselves to the singin gof college
songs and waving of their college ban
ners." says Miss Ida Comstock. dean
of women at the University of Minne-
sofa.
According to Miss Comstock there
is nothing more dispiriting than the
attempt on the part of a lot of ome
to cheer or yell in concert. They do
not inspire the charge. but rather
panic-stricken flight. intimates Miss
Comstock. Tho noise resembles moth
ing SO much as the meanings of one
in the throes of a nightmare. Women
can Shrek but they sre unable to
sound warlike notes.
Il should like to see a girls root
ing team at the university" said Earl
Pickering, captain and star of the
university eleven. For myself l would
say that I distinguish the cheers of
the goods above the deep intonations
of the roofing club n they inspire
me. I believe that women's cheers
have won as many games of football
for Minnesota university as any bunch
of warriors that ever dug up the turf
on the gridiron."
Miss Comstock says that she would
consider it a misfortune if any or
ganization were former for feminine
rooterS.

The following dispatch will be of
interest to the old baseball fans Of
the city and vicinity. who remember
John C. Bender. formerly with the
Fargo and Duluth teams of the North

POOR SHOWING

Northfeld. Mimi. Oct. s-carleton
Won the second game of the season
here Saturday. defeating Pillsbury
academy is to 0. The game in the first
half Was fast and snappy. and. while
the Pillshury men We're unable to hold
their heavier opponents. they put up
a good fight.
Carleton scored all her points in
the first half. In the second half the
game was spoiled by constant penal
ties for holding in the line and in
interference and for offside plays.
Carleton was the greatest offender in
this respect and her fouls undoubtedly
cost her at least one more touchdown.
Coach Kent is far from pleased with
the showing his team made and will
put the players through a hard week
in preparation for the North Dakota
game next Saturday. There are many
crudities to be polished off although
the material is probably the hest ever
seen at Carleton. Kent has the MAX
ings of a wonderful machine and hopes
to develop it before the championship
games come on later in the season.

a number who are looking forward to
a wrestling match between Bun Deitz

The two boys are very evenly
