Navy game, played in New York city
Particularly will Madison residents
watch the work of Gene Vidal. of this
city, who as a halfback for the West
Point athletes has starred I'm every
game in which he has played this sea-
son. Eastern sport writer's declare
that il lis because of the excellent
showings made this year by Vidal and
Oliphant that they pick the Army
men to win. An interested spectator
at the game is President Wilson, who
had arranged to sit during one haif
of the contest on the Army's side and
for Navy rooters.
On account of both elevens having
already been defeated this season. i'm
terest in the Hardvard-Yale game, at

also the alumni of Wisconsin and IL
linois universities in the game at

CHAMPIONSHIP CLAIMS
STATE COLLEGE VICTORY OVER
NORTH DAKOTA SETTLES
DISPUTE.

B%rookings, Nov. 25.-The State
college football team in closing its
season with a defeat of North Da-
kota university disposed of the last
arguments Of the University of South
Dakota and established State college
definitely as the champions of North
and South Dakota.
1t is exceedingly unfortunate that
South Dakota university and State
did not meet this fall and no one re-
grets this more than do the adherents
of State. However, since the two
teams do not meet, and, as every Ell
fort and inducement possible was
made to arrange a game with the uni
yersity this season as we'll as a sug-
g~estion OF a preseason or postseason
game, the comparative score basis is
all that remains TO settle the title.
After States defeat of Al to 7 by
Minnesota. and before the university
met the Gophers. it was confidently
announced that the Minnesota games
would be the only direct way to com
pare the strength of State and the
university. After Minnesota swamp
ed the Coyotes 81 to 0, the alibi was
offered that the university was Grip
pied through the absence of veterans
and a green team. State also had a
green team and was also crippled
through the detention on the Mex
lean border of eight squad men,
among whom were four letter men,
including Stevens, the 1916 captain
elect. State fought hard in the Min
nncpta uamn NyaC dnfaafnd hpt Of
fered no alibi. 1t is also interesting
to note that Minnesota gives State
credit for making one of the two
earned touchdowns made against the
Gophers thus far this season.

GOOD HUNTING SEASON
COMPLAINTS OF GAME LAW NIO-
LATIONS FEWER THAN FOR
MANY YEARS PAST.

During the 1916 hunting season
which can now be said to be practic-
ally closed. there was a falling off OF
fragrant violations of the state game
laws of approximately 60 per cent.
according 10 the records in the state
game warden's department at Pierre,
Ii was explained this morning by Lew
Hawley, of Sioux Falls, deputy game
warden. who spent last night in the
city. 1t was set forth by Mr.. Hawley
that not only were the proved Trans
gressions of hunters fewer than in
recent former years, but that actual
complaints made during the last fall
numbered only about 40 per cent of
the total received a year ago.
Mr.. Hawley said that the hunting
season. SO far as ducks We're concern
ed. had been well up to the average.
He related that nimrods. as a class,
over the district through which he
had travelled. were pretty well salts
fled with the sport afforded them.
Especially were ducks plentiful and
unwary at the opening of the season.
The deputy warden told that he be
lieyed late hunting would have beeI.
better had il not been for the large
number of migratory birds which tar
ried i'm the north until driven out by
severe weather. Coming, in thou
sands. ahead of the first real cold
wave. the ducks flew high and stop
ped only when necessity demanded.
Very few geese were shot this year
i'm this section of the state.
While the open season does not
close officially until December 81,
practically all migratory birds have
left the north.
