pacity Friday evening, the occasion
being a speech by Orville V. Rinehart,

not abuse the opposition and gave all
parties credit for the good each has
done in its turn when entrusted with
charge Of governmental affairs.
He spoke Of some reforms he would
like to carry out If he is elected, but
made most Of his speech along ma
tional lines, pointing out some of the
reforms the present administration
has enacted into law.

EASY FOR
STATE COLLEGE
PUT UP SCRAPPY GAME BUT
WERE UNABLE TO SCORE AT
oPPORTUNE MOMENTS
STATE PLAYED FINE BALL THROUGHOUT
State College Cinched Claim on State
Championship Over the State
University

Huron put up a great game at de-
Tense here Saturday and lost to State
College only because the latter was
more shifty, more experienced and
played a strong consistent game
throughout. Huron was weak on the
o%ffense, and was rarely able to make
gains through the almost ~invincible
line of the State College defense.
Huron came in a special train ac-
companied by a large crowd of root
ers. They were players, a credit to
their school and their city; and all
the people who came with them con-
Quoted themselves in the same high
classed way. They made a good i'm
preston and a lasting one, and their
visits here in the future will be look
ed forward to with pleasure.
The defeat of Huron has practically
cinched the state championship. Yer
million made a much poorer showing
against Minnesota than State College,
and has persistently refused to meet
our team anywhere or under any cir
cumstances. Her only chance was to
defeat a few weak teams and then
claim championship honors. She can't
do it this year with that Minnesota re-
cord against her-S1 to 0. Our record
was Al to Z. North Dakota defeated
Vermillion Saturday by a score Of 20
to 0, and North Dakota made a poorer
showing against Minnesota than State
College, the score being AZ to Z.
In the game Saturday Thomas, Skin
ner, Dunn, Hawley, Jennings, Ander-
son and Wilson were the stars for the
locals.
The score by quarters was as fol
lows: l 2 3 4
