S. U. !. GIVES CHICAGO SCARE.
Battles Illinois School to Almost a
Tie in Football Game.

Chicago Oct. 19--Coach Hawley' s
Iowa football team came within few
inches of holding Chicago to a tie Sat
urday afternoon on Stage field. The
final score was to in favor of Chi
cago.
To Pete Russells speed and ability
to dodge the midway" owes the Z
points which settled the game. Late
in the first period Pete caught a
Hawkeye punt on the center line and
before ne was downed he was lying
several wards back of the Iowa goal.
For long time in the second half it
looked as if the visitors would surely
tie 1t up. for Garretson was tearing
large holes in the Chicago line. but
the Hawkeyes' habit of fumbling
spoiled their chances again and again.
In the final minutes of play Chicago
seemed to gain new strength, for it
was on the road to a second touchdown
when the head linesman announced
that time was up.
The much heralded Iowa spread
play was rendered practically useless
by Stages open defense and Iowa s
only consistent gaining was done on
regular formations and plunges thru
the line Perhaps if Garretson and his
fellow hacks had been called on earlier
for straight bucks and had forgotten
the spread formation they would have
tied or beaten the Maroons.
Sparks. Whiting Albert and Des Jar
diem played nice defensive games for
the Maroons. Garretson Carberrv.
Gross and Gunderson were Iowa's stars.
They waxed enthusiastic during the
second half when the Hawkeyes
threatened to score Only few substi-
tutians We're made on each side and
time was out for injuries only three
times.
