HENDRIX LOSES
TO UNIVERSITY
IA, dat FAYETTEVILLE
SCORE DOES NOT INDICATE
RELATIVE STRENGTH OF THE
TWO TEAMS.
From Mon Iay's Oai,Y

From Mon .ay's DAILY
Hendrix lost to the University of
Arkansas at Fayetteville Saturday af-
ternoon y score OF 81 to o. The
game was not so one-sided as the score
would indicate, for Hendrix made
many large gains and tore through
the University line several times. Had
it not teen for use excellent defense
put up by Russell May Hendrix would
have made many more gains. The
fact that Hendnx had not been in a
game this season and lacked proper
team work, while the University had
been in several games, is chiefly re-
sponsit lie for the one-sided score. Cum
ninghan Shinn and Hanesworth were
the heavy ground gamers for Hendrix.
Ellis offensive work as quarterback
was brilliant at times, and with lit
tie more experience will make an in
valuab man on the team.
