nothing this season to warrant a vic
tory over the big red team.
Northwestern had as it's opponent
the University of Missouri and was
prepared for the stiffest kind of a bat
tie, as the Missourians have been
training hard for the game. North
western also has put in two weeks of
earnest practice and the eleven is re-
ported to have been much improved
since it's defeats early in the big nine
race. The game was the first in the
history between the two universities.
Iowa and Purdue were slated to
clash at Lafayette, and Ohio State and
Indiana at Columbus in games having
a bearing on the rating of conference

Having lived several years on the
Pacific Coast, we have a suspicion
that Jay E. House, mayor, who has
been telling his experiences on an al
legged visit to the coast during a re-
cent vacation, never got there at all.
We are not saying that he dropped off
the train at Empory and spent a
month with Bill White, but we sus-
pect that he did something like that,
doing his touring in a school geog-
raphy.
Our suspicion is founded on the
following statement from the mayor:
1.-THE test of reputable citizenship
in Portland is a publicly professed
liking for salmon. In the commercial
world the salmon is regarded as fish
usually canned fish. In Portland the
salmon Is a fetch. The man who is

C. OF E. VICTORS
WheatshOckers Couldn't Cope
With EmpOrians' Open Play.
Baker Defeated Southwestern
by 13 to O Score.

Emporia, Kan. Nov. 6.-The Col
lege of Emporia defeated the Fair
mount Wheatshockers here Friday
afternoon, in fast, hard fought game
by the decisive score of 20 to 0. Cap
tain Hinshew and Quarterback Alt
man, of the c. of E. team were the
individual stars of the game, Altman's
tossing of the forward pass being
especially brilliant.
The c. of E. players relied extern
sive1y on the open game, trying 81
forward passes and completing thir-
teen of them for total of 267 yards.
The score would have been larger had
the home team not been penalized
frequently.
The c. of E. players began their
scoring in the second quarter and
from the first touchdown there never
was a doubt as to the outcome of
the game. FairmoUnt threatened to
score once in the third period when
the Wheatshockers advanced the ball
to their opponents ten-yard line, but
the G. of E. line held and they lost
the ball on downs. The lineup:

Baker, 10: southwestern. o.

Winfield, Kan, Nov. 6.-Baker uni
versity maintained its undefeated rec
ord in the Kansas conference here
Friday afternoon by defeating South
western, 13 to O. The Moundbuilders
were badly crippled, but outplayed
Baker for the first three quarters.
In the first half Southwestern
played a defensive game, largely by
kicking on the first down most of the
time. Seigler outpunted Taylor but
Jaggard returned well. In the second
quarter the locals opened up a good
offensive, but were held when they
approached the Baker goal. In the
last quarter, a long forward pass to
Taylor put the ball over. Jaggard
missed goal. A few minutes later
another long pass to Preshaw scored
another touchdown. Jaggard kicked
goal. Hantla missed a chance to
score for the Moundbuilders when he
failed to boot two long place kicks.
Captain Taylor played good game
for Baker, as did Scott. Carlson was
the star of the Moundbuilders- Sew
eral Moundbuilders, including Captain
Robinson, were out of the game on
account of injuries.

Wolverines Hoped to Win by

Ann Arbor, Mich, Nov. Con the
basis of past performances Michigan's
football team seemed to have little
chance against the strong Cornell elev-

backs were expected to give a good
account of themselves, but it was
feared the forward line which has
been the despair of Coach Yost all
season, would not be able to Withstand
the onslaught of the IthacanS.
Recent attention given place kicking
indicated an intention on the part of
Michigan to try for field goals when
ever the ball could be worked close
enough to the goal line.

In the mater of lingerie one may
choose between much-trimmed or lit
tle-trimmed garments, providing they
are made Of sheer, well-woven cotton
or linen fabrics. The great majority
are made of cotton because 1t is cheap
er than linen, is just as good-looking,
and does not muss so easily. Linen is
thought to be more durable and is
therefore sometimes selected for lin
gerie which is to be hand-embroidered
By comparison with cotton fabrics,
such as fine voiles, woven of hard
twisted thread. durability lies rather
in favor of cotton.
The best known tub fabrics include
