CARLISLE DEFEATED.
Porter Beats Game by Score of AZ
to O.


foot ball game of the season, Porter
winning by score of Al to O. The
following write-up of the game is
clipped from the News and Courier
of Saturday:
The visitors played much better
ball in the last half than in the first,
although the score was little larg-
er. They seemed to have developed
better tackling ability and their
rushes at the line were better. How
ever, they did not have chance at
getting through the first defence Of
the Porterites. To put it plainly,
they were outclassed.
Simmons, at tackle; Hargreaves,
at end, and Bird, at guard, did es-
pecially well.
The most sensational play Of the
game was pulled off in the last quar-
ter, when Delaney, playing quarter,
tossed to Smith, who in turn aero
planed one to Fuller. The blond lit
tie end, with almost clear field,
went sixty-fve yards before being
downed. The play was cleverly
executed one.
Carlisle's Stars.
Capt. Lenoir, for Carlisle, at end,
played we'll in spite of a bad boil on
his face. Watson and Woods, in the
back field, and Hough, at tackle, also
starred for the visitors.
Scoring by the Props started early.
Allan was doWned on Porter's 27 IL
yard line on the kickoff. On the first
play Higgins took twenty-five yards
around right end. Brilliant runs by
Higgins brought the ball to Carlisle's
,1S-yard line, when Delaney ripped
his way through for the first touch
down. Allan kicked goal.
Carlisle received, but after losing
seven yards on three downs kicked to
Porter's 25-yard line. Delaney and
Higgins, aided by Allan, carried the
bail to the 10-yard line. A pretty
forward pass, Smith to Hargreaves
scored touchdown No. 2. The kick
off failed.
When the teams lined up a pur'
posely short kick of about twelve
yards gave Porter the ball on Car
isles 45-yard line when the Metho'
dists fumbled. With thirteen yards
to go the quarter ended. Resumins
play Delaney went Or eight yards
Allan took three a.. Smith buttec
his way through centre for the thlrc
| touchdown. Allan kicked goal.
Higgins Goes Over.
It was after Carlisle received thu
next kickoff that Lenoir got away fol
his 21-yard run. 1t was by far thu
best piece of offensive work of th'
visitors. Within one-quarter yard O.
making the next first down the bal
went over. The half ended with thu
ball at about hermiddle of the field.
At the beginning of the third quar-
ter Carlisle received but was forced
to kick after unsuccessful attempt
to gain. The Porter line was impene
trable. After Delaney had galnet

Des Moines, Oct. 27.-FNe attor.
ueys have battled in oral arguments
before the Iowa supreme court today
in the case OF the city Of Fort Dodge

company. The question to be deter.
mined is whether the telephone com.

it SO that rates for service could be
increased. With this understanding
the company invested $4,000 in i'm.
prOvements.
The officials OF Fort Dodge say
that the city is not bound by the act
of the Commercial club, and that
the people of the city did not consent
TO annulling the franchise.
The second big case scheduled to
be argued orally today is that OF
James Sultzbach VS.. Frank Smith,
