the same locality the action Of the
play remains and where the clash
of interests come and are worked
out along very clever comedy lines.
According to the New York and

 Score of 13 to o.

The defeat of Wisconsin by Minnesota and of Michigan by Pennnsylvania eliminates the only other unbeaten teams of the Big Ten and give the Buckeyes undisputa ble claim to the supremacy of the west.
 Ohio's scoring, coming only after strong resistance by the Illinois claim ants, was represented by two goals from placement booted between the uprishts by Harley. Ohio's all-Ameri- can backfeld man, and H. G.. Court ney's touchdown in the last period, made on a forward pass from Harley. Harley also kicked goal from touch down.
 Contrary to predictions. both teams used straight football in the main. The only variation came in the last period, when forward passes gained consider able ground for each. On two occasions Illinois came within striking distance
 Ohios offensive centered largely around Harley, who was in almost ev- cry play, and outkicked Charpier on their exchanges of punts. Boesel proved the best ground gainer for the champions, making long runs through a broken field. Line attacks by Sterna- man and Charpier gave Illinois most of her gains.
 The. Ohioans started their scoring early in the game Harley place kicking for three points from the IT yard line after three minutes of play, the Buck eyes having rushed the ball 75 yards to the 10 yard line. The ball remained near the middle of the field during the second and third periods. but early in the fourth a series of line plunges and passes carried Ohio into Illinois terri tory and Harley tossed a forward pass TO H. G. Courtney, who carried tt across the line. Harley then kicked goal With nine minutes of the last quarter gone, Harley again drove the ball between the goal posts from the 30 yard line.

A. ten yard line and then somebody on the Red and White team was too thick to get the signals as the ball was passed to no one in particular. Bennett was a fraction of second ahead of Sullivan in landing on the ball, thereby depriving Bulkeley of five points The last quarter started with a rush the Academy making a couple of good gains and then a blocked kick gave New London the ball. The visiting team took the ball bucks and off-tackle plays until the ball was near the twenty yard line. four rushes netted but nine yards and the Academy protested when Rulkeaey kept the ball The notes of the re- orters for both The Bulletin and the New London paper showed it to be the fifth down but the referee stuck to his decision. The Academy got the ball finally a yard from her goal and was forced to punt. Murphy got the kick by a circus tackle by ,Rr. Will cox. On the last play of the game Eastwood got the ball three inches from the Academy goal
 The game was fast from tire first kick of until the final whistle, al- though Bulkeiey's play was marred by frequent penalties for offside. All four backs on both teams played great foot ball but the. nne plunging of East wood and Wilcox of the Academy and the headwori1 of Captain MalIon of Bu1keley were especially worthy of mention Bennett proved a dangerous man as did Spicer of BulkeIey..
