In the Iowa legislature today the
house committee appointed to prepare
a memorial for the ltac William Brcm

early manhood, during residence of
seventeen years.

led engineering, and later law. and as
an engineer was a member of a rail-
road engineering corps that did much
work turnout Connecticut in the early
days.
"In the year 1856. realizing that there
were greater opportunities for a young
man in the then far west, Mr.. Brem-
ner came to Iowa, and after looking
about the few towns then settled, Sc
lected MarshalltOwn as the point where
he would begin his business career. He
formed a partnership with Hon. w.
P. Hepburn, late congressman from the
Eighth district, who is brother-in-
law of Mr. Bremner, and for few
years practiced law.
"Preferring out of door life to the
law office he decided to take up his

SYRACUSE ELEVEN
Jimmy Craig Bright Star in VOL
verines' Hollow Victory Over
Fasteners.

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Nov The tri-
umph of the Wolverines over Syracuse,
s3 to z, means that Michigan looks for
success when it takes the field against
Pennsylvania. Jimmy Craig, the crack
halfback, without days training de-
feated the Salt City eleven by himself.
-Four times he swept down the field and
across the line. Though he did not play
quite through the first half, he decided
the victory before he retired. exhausted.
He was invincible on end runs and, for
a change, would dig through the Syra-
cuse line for from ten to twenty yeards.
Apparently we have got the right
stuff here" says Coach Yost, but it
has been asleep. From now on we shall
prepare for the Penn game. Michigan
is going to win that big game this year.
1t has the stuff
Syracuse was expected to win here,
but the Wolverines attack simply could
not be stopped. In the last half st
used a number of substitutes and wen
they were able to gain at will. How
ever. they could not stop the Syracuse
backs, particularly Castles.
The visitors score came when Sey-
mour, the Syracuse quarterback, picked
up tumble and raced eighty yards for
q touchdown.

Colgate Stupefies Yale Team
and Skaters Tradition. by
HandiIy Winning.

NEW HAVEN, Conn., Nov. 2-Those
out early this morning mistook the
gloom settled over the Yale campus. for
fog ard all day there has been little
said and still less done about the loss
of Yesterdays battle tosColgate by d
IL to 6 score. No excuses are offered,
zone can be made, for it is realized
that the New York State boys made
monkeys of the Yale defense and shat
tered traditions to splinters, stupefyins
the whole Blue team time after time.
Parker and Abel, Colgate's tackles, are
Icing given credit for as clever de-
fensive work as has been seen here this
year. The up State lads put il all over
the Yale linemen and showed up the
Yale backfield to the extent that the
Blue rushers were practically helpless.
There was no fiuke to be recorded for
Colgate, which fairly won.
Taking advantage OF two fumbies'
Colgate rushed the ball in five plunges
from the 15-yard line for a touchdown.
Hiley fell on the ball when Knowles
fumbled behind the line and On another
occasion a goal from placement made
more points Yale suffered from poor

Quakers Play All Sorts of Foot
ball at Times and Fail to
Impress.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. Dis
playing flashes of brilliancy, lapsing
into mediocre play and at no time show
ing the form of a great team, the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania football eleven
defeated Pennsylvania State on Frank
lin Field yesterday afternoon by a score
of Il to 0. The Quakers scored touch
downs in the first and second quarters,
goals resulting from each. In the third
period Marshall booted a beautiful goal
from field from States 35-yard line.
Captain Young, receiving a forward
pass from Minds on the S-yard line,
close to the end of the first period,
scored Penn's first touchdown. Mar
shall. receiving the ball from Minds on
fake forward pass, carried it for a
touchdown after a splendid run OF
twenty yards with less than a minute
TO play in the second quarter.
Pennsylvania was clearly superior to
State during the first half. The Red
and Blue out rushed the Blue and White
five yards to one, the latter making only
one first down from straight scrimmage
in the first half. while the Quakers
gave their best offensive display in the
second period

Neither Howard nor Reilly appeared
to be thoroughly convinced that the
limit Of development has been reached
while others are fearful that the Navy
will strike slump during the next
week. 1t Is thought surprising today
that the Midshipmen have achieved
their successes this season without the
least display of swellheadedness.
What is causing the greatest reieic-
ing is that the win over Lehigh COM
pletely eradicated the slur on last
years record. The Navy is satisfied
with the showing made by Biodgett
the fourth class halfback, whose work
was all that could be desired y
The Nays powerful set sf forwards
completely pvershadowed those Of Le-
high and made possible long gains by
the backfield men. There was no ecm-
parison bteween the teams and while
Lehigh at times showed game de-
fense which rallied frequently to hold
the Navy. there was no concentrated
effort or sustained attack.
At the outset of the contest the Navy,
with Mitchell directing the attack, used
Harrison, the f1llback. on line attacks
with usual success. The Navy con-
centrated the attack the Eehigh line
and plowed through for large gains

died two years ago. and the students
Of Notre Dame have since subscribed a
fund to honor one of the most popular
men who ever graduated from the lni-

ball game after leaving college, and
never recovered, dying eight days later.
He was playing with the alumni of
Pacific University against the varsity
of the same school. on october 10. 1911,
and in one of the "tackle-round'' plays,
for which he was famous broke a rib,
which punctured his lungs.
For three consecutive years, 1868, 1863
and 1910, Dimick played tackle on the
Notre Dame eleven and proved himself
TO be one of the strongest linemen ever
seen on the Gold and Blue gridiron.
His great weight and wonderful knowl-
edge of the game made him one of the
mainstays of the team.
