NORTHUMBERLAND

Ohio State. Iowa and Indiana have
played conference games.
While the showing of Iowa and IL
1inois together with that of Michi-
gan. was the feature of the confer
ence games of Saturday, the two for
mer elevens did not give quite such
powerful exhibitions as their victories
might seem to indicate.
Illinois, the subject Of many bear
stories pointing out the loss Of last
years stars. opened it's season by
smothering South Dakota University
So to O., although the latter was con
sidered a fairly strong team. The
scoring ability Of the Illini. was offset
however by some very ragged work.
1owa's 10 to victory over Notre
Dame, frequently one of the strong
est elevens in the country, caused a
big shock. although it was conceded
that Iowa would have a fast driving
attack this season. The reported
weakness of the Iowa line did not ma
~terialize. for although Notre Dame
used every style of play in an eforl
to offset the ten points made by the
Iowans in he first period, the attack
down. While lowa's victory has
brought the team we'll to the front / n
carly seaso calculations, it is pointed
out that Notre Dame really o~utplayed
the enemy after the first quarter sur,
prise.
Michigan again demonstrated its
right to consideration for a place near
the top by sweeping over Case. 81 to
0. The wolverines generally have a
tough time beating Case. a
Ohio States defeat by Oberlin 6 to
Z was a real surprise, but did not
cause as much comment as might be
expected. 1t is generally conceded
that Coach Wilce will have unusual
difficulty in replacing the numerous
stars of last years championship team
who are no longer in school, and few
expect the Buckeyes to retain the title.
Minnesota, in it's first conference
game, won from Northwestern % to
0. and did neither better nor worse
Dictated. Chicago; which beat North
western ~ to o.. a week ago, disap-
pointed by it's lack of punch against
Purdue but scored nine points on
flukes to none for the boilermakers.

ed weak.
Wisconsin showed a beautiful at
tack in defeating South Dakota State
"a to 3. but the Badger line was
| ripped to pieces at times and is caus-
ing considerable worry to those who
predicted the Wisconsin eleven would
lead the others this s i.
Indiana's3 showing in its 19 to o de-
feat by~Harvard in the International
clash was colorless. but somewhat OF
a surprise. In the middle west it was
believed that the Hoosiers woul be
