Captain BeaIs Demonstrates
That He's Drop Kicker.

Emporia, Kan, Nov. 19.-Playing in
form that equaled, if it did OF exceed
any they have shown this season, the
Washburn Ichabods wound up their
schedule here Thursday afternoon by
defeating the College of Emporia 10
to 9.
The game was repIete with spectac-
ular and thrilling plays, and the En-
porians proved a big surprise by put
ting up stiff opposition until the
very last play. The most spectacular
feature was an 50 yards run for a
touchdown in the last quarter by
"Pinky'' Beals. But the touchdown
was not allowed because in warding
off tackler "Pinky'' stepped out of
bounds with one foot just when the
officials had their eyes glued the
chalk marks. However, there were
numerous long gains by both sides,
and one of the best was a 20 yard
dash by Beals around end in the sec
ond quarter for the first Washburn
touchdown.
Other Star Players
In addition to Beals, the line plung-
ing of Bearg and the defensive playing
of Chamberlain and Stewart were fea
lures that stood out as superior to the
work of any other players. Ex-Cap-
tain Trobert's punting reminded the
spectators of 1.-The old days." and his
boots averaged a slightly less than 3S
yards, which, considering the fact that
he has had little practice this season,
was much better than might have
been expected
The final result of the game was in
doubt until the last play, and Wash
burn was compelled to fight all the
way. The c. of E. team won the toss
and elected to defend the north goal.
Washburn kicked off 80 yards to Wal
lace who returned 10. H. Hinshaw
skirting an end for IT yards, but the
Washburn line then held and c. of
E. punted 35 yards to Sullivan who re-
turned 10.

and fluke punt that only went 10
