a long pass straight over the entire
badger eleven. Two more of these
passes We're thrown perfectly in that
game n fooled the eleven cardinal
players. but fumbles on the receiving
end made them ineffective.
No Defense for Pass.
In the game of last Saturday Min
nesota's defense was superb before the
second touchdown when the badgers
were fighting down toward the gopher
ed the ball nearer and nearer to the
striking point they were met with d
more determined resistance than be-
fore and Of a sudden it looked as If
the gophers would take the ball away
on downs. Then came a pass,-Gillette
to Tandberg,-and this play was not
only strikingly executed, but 1t also
found the gopher defense entirely I'M
prepared. 1t went perfectly and a few
moments later a second pass to the
scoring IONS back of the Minnesota
goal gave Wisconsin it's second touch
down.
May Fool Gophers.
Possibly Wisconsin was lucky in the
execution of the passes. But. it is a
fact that these passes were effective
and that the gopher defense was fooled
completely when the bail was thrown.

Minnesota defense is prepared to solve
far more intricate passes thai 1t saw
on last Saturday, 1t will certainly have
trouble with the Stage offense. We are
inclined to believe that these Chicago
passes will not cause as great con-
fusion as did those of Wisconsin, be-
cause we think the general play Of the
Chicago offense far weaker than that
OF the badgers. Minnesota exerted the
greater part of her energy in stopping
the smashing attacks of Tandberg and
Van Ripper and thus was in a condition
to be fooled by just such passes as
Gillette pulled at the critical times.
The maroon line attack will not be as
effective as was that framed by juneau
and thus without doubt Minnesota
backfeld men will be more. prepared
for the pass Than they were on last
Saturday. On the dope Minnesota's
shift play should win next Saturdays
game. 1t will do so unless the dope
is upset by the forward pass.

we are beginning to get all kinds of
wonderful tales about the Chicago

Of play they include many of the bucks
which have made Minnesota famous on

Norwegian Lutheran and First Baptist
game ended in the first victory for the
Raptists, score 8 to 8.
It is impossible TO say which of the
two games could be called the best.
Both contests were full of good plays
which brought forth much applause
from the spectators. The Presbyter-
tans emerged last night still undefeat-
ed and maintaining there 1000 per
cent standing. The game val won In
the last inning when four runs were
needed to tie, and five to win. BY
good Judgment and excellent hase run
ming, they succeeded in securing the
necessary five scores
Before a large crow of their loyal
supporters, the First Baptists chalked
up their first win when they downed
the Norwegian Lutheran boys. The
game was exceptionally well played,
n took last forty-hve minutes to
complete the seven innings, the fast
est game played thus far.
With the exception of election night,
the largest crowd Of the season was in

Chicago, Nov. 20.-The Northwestern
university football squad went into the
scrimmase today with an eagerness it
has not shown since before the Indian
game. .-
Gruhn, Lamke and Wells plowed
through the strong freshmen line. for
gains of five and ten yards, but fire.
,quent fumbling prevented more than
n score against the f1rst-year men.
Hightower, star quarterback, was in
the scrImmage for the first time since
the game with wisconsin early in the
season. Although Hightower has play
ed in. every game, Coach Hammett has
dared risk hurting the quarterback
in the scrimmage.
The ~scrimmage was preceded by sig
nal drill and practice in passing, punt
ing and tackling.

made themselves apparent, however,
ana in the last minute OF the round
he landed a heavy short arm hook to
the face, sending the Clevelander TO
the floor for a count of six, the bell
saving him.
Williams came up fresh for the sec
ond round but Flynn was after him

Columbus Ohio January 1S.--
President Bigclow yesterday an
nounced the chairmen of the commit
tees of the constitutional convention.
The full personnel will be given out
today.
In the selection Of Robert Crosscr
OF Cleveland as chairman of the l.
and r. committee, friends of this
measure had their desires gratined.
Mr. Crosser fathered the bill giving
municipalities the right to exercise
the 1. and r. in tAeir government.
Two go TO Ashtabula.
Ashtabula County was doubly ia
vored i'm the distribution of the heads
of committees. Both Of her members
were given important recognition. r..
L. Lampson, an ardent advocate Of
the good roads policy was made
chairman of that committee. much
to the pleasure Of the farmer dele
gates, though many Of them would
have accepted the position had Mr..
Dampson declined. w. S. Harris. the
other Ashtabula member, heads the
legislative executive committee to
which in all probability the recall
will be referred. Mr.. Harris has had
10 years experience in lawmaking in
both branches OF the legislature.
The appointment of the Ashtabula
delegates Is looked upon as a move
on the part OF Mr.. Bigelow to pro-
mote harmony Both were opposed
to him for the presidency.
Bowdlc on Liquor Body.
.
mitttee stands Judge Hiram d. Peck
of Cincinnati one OF the oldest at
torneys in the state He was a mem
Der OF the superior bench at Cincln-
natl. where he sat with President
Taft.
How the temperance forces will
take the appointment Of Attorney
Stanley Bowdle Of Cincinnati as chair
man Of the liquor committee is a
subject of conjecture. Mr.. Bowdle Is
an avowed wet man.
Members and supporters Of the
larger universities arc said to be dis
appointed over the selection Of DR..
Fess as chairman Of the educational
committee. Some profess to see in
the appointment a favor to the small
Ter colleges. II is understood that
taat George W. Knight Of Ohio State
University was desired by the large
universities.
Beatty Fer the Banks.
Richard Beatty Of Wood county
president of the First National Banl;
Of Bowling Green, was named chair
man of the banks and banking COM
mittee. Mr.. Beatty already has left his
