games It was decided by the members
Of the team to send the second eleven
to Iowa City, in order that the first
string men could get into top condi-
ton for the last three games on the
home field. The second team failed to
show fight, and suffered an overwhelm-
Ing defeat. LOG to 0. The result was
accepted over the state as defeat for
the Marshalltown team, but in reality
1t was team composed largely OF
"scrubs'' which represented the local
school.
Make Great Finish.
The rest given the first team from
the hard struggles proved the turning
point in the teams career. When it

when Eagle Grove came here the fol-
Iowa championship honors, it met a
department of the game. While Mar

Lose Five Players
The team will lose five men by
graduation this year. Four Of these
have been regular members Of the
team. while the fifth, Dent, has played
part of the season as substitute full
ba ok.
Thru graduation the team loses both
regular halfbacks, one tackle and the
fullback. All losses will be hard to re-
place. The retiring players are Cap
tain Buchwald, halfback; Meyer, half
back; Hull, tackle: and Boucher, CEN
ter.
Buchwald has been one Of the great
est ground gamers of the season and
has proved one Of the fastest players
who ever represented the red and blue
on the gridiron. Meyer is no less
brilliant. and his ability to find hole
in the line and his stiffness in a
broken field has made Inn one of the
teams best players. Hull has been q.
tower of strength in the line, and he
and his teammate, Packer, have been
responsible for big gains on tackle
back plays, especially in the latter part
of the season. Boucher will be hard
man to replace. He has outplayed
every center he has met, land has
proved an especially fast man for the
pivotal position He has been able to
get thru and spoil plays and has played
stellar football in recovering punts and
intercepting passes. In the Waterloo
game he scored q touchdown in block
ing a punt and tearing over the goal
line with the ball.
Prospects For 1914 Bright.
The prospects for the season of 1914
are very bright. OF the present team
the coaches will have several expert
enced men to form the nucleus of a
winning team. Kirk, Peckham, and
Ruth will be available for guards.
Packer at tackle positiuns C. ,Buchwald,
Good and Brennecke at ends, New
conner at quarter, Suter at half and
Ward at full. In addition to these
there are several promising men on the
second team who are expected to fill
the places made vacant thru grad
uation. The second team is made up
for the most part of boys without pre-
vious football experience, but they have
