Anticipating a line smash on each
OF the remaining two downs, he
clustered his defenders around the
center OF the line. The cagey
Nichols was waiting for just such
an advantage. Wyman sneaked
around behind the goal posts and
caught Sid's low forward pass for
the only touchdown Of the game.
! Sterling resourcefulness. not
luck, prevented the Cards from per-
haps tieing the scoring in the fourth
quarter. Driscoll had thrown one
Of his awe-inspiring, low, spiralling
passes to Hallstrom, who caught
the ball on Rock Islands 3-yard
line. Kuehl struck the player with
such force that the ball bounced out
of his grasp into the waiting arms
Of Florence. Fudge" Wyman then
charged against Florence, who also
lost the ball. making the pass in
complete. Eddie Novak stood be-
hind the line and punted out Of
danger.

Freeman Fitzgerald, Charlie Mock

the ends. Bob Marshall and Oke
Smith. had all but Driscoll baffled
completely. Paddy was there with
all his old cunning at picking holes
for his twisting, twirling, cut-in
dashed outside tackle. But the for
mer Northwestern star could not
gain consistently enough to score.
! Big Cardinal Three.
Three Cardinals, Driscoll, Connie
,Mc1nerney and boo" Gillies, for
mer Cornell university star, virtu-
ally played the whole game for the
visitors. Gillies alone was mostly
responsible for checking many Is
lander off-tackle plays. McIner-
ney's line plunging and secondary
defense work outshone those Of the
rest Of the team. McInerney makes
splendid athlete and. moreover
he promised the writer that he will
bat better than $50 for the Island
ers in the next Three Eye race.
I After giving all the independents
their dues. It was Sid Nichols ALL
around playing that led the team
His work yesterday stamped him a.
one Of the best offensive players in
professional circles; and 1t stands
to reason that when Rube Ursells
has recovered sufficiently enough te
resume his pivotal position, we will
all see Sid cavorting as . regular
halfback.

ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch.J

San Reno, April 23.-Premier
Lloyd George Of Great Britain, in an
informal talk with the American
newspaper correspondent said there
was real need of the participation
of the United States in the discus
sions of the Turkish problems. If
the United States did participate, her
views would be likely to prevail, he
declared.
During the course of the convention,
which lasted an hour, Mr.. Lloyd
George replied freely to numerous
questions put to him by the CORES
pondents.
THE impression l formed from the
reports of British officials within
Germany" the premier said, Sub
stantially is the Impotence of the gov
eminent. The limbs do not obey the
central authority. The situation in

sembles that of paralytic recovering

Food Situation Bad.
"The British government has never
proposed as a means of compelling
Germany to fulfill the terms of the
treaty that she should starve. Her
food situation now is deplorable. Re-
ports from our officers in the &C.
cupied area indicate that although g.
200 food calories are necessary to
maintain persons health and
strength, the population there receives
only about 1900 calories in the Off
