in grabbing down forward passes, that
proved a revelation to. Topeka. Five
times Jemison snagged almost impos-
sible passes, when the Purple warriors
surrounded him on all sides. And
that's not all. His tackle swings were
always ground gamers The longest
gain thru the line made in the entire
game was made by Jemison, when he
swung thru the line over Cossman, and
charged down the field for twenty
five yards. The speedy end was clear
for the goal with the exception of the
safety, but Kinds proved trustworthy
and brought him down.
No off-Pnlmatier Combination.
The Wykoff-P almatier combination
of line smashing was done away Thurs
day, and only twice did the Jeff fol-
low the Mutt thru the line.
After playing twenty annual battles,
Washburn and the Aggie remain tied
on the playing, each team winning
nine games and tying two. Next year
may change the tale.
