Blue Nose, which captured the first

Eight schooners started today. The

Blue Nose won. The course covered
was 1885 miles.

Spring Valley, Streator, La Sale
and ether teams in the Illinois valley
conference are continuous users OF
the aerial method of gaining ground
and they have been going good since
the first of the season.
The material Is there. Mockenstock

game and should be a star, Carey,
captain OF the team, has the makings

ers O. RI. s. has over turned out
Calkins and Antram on the line are
real fighters and Burns Is hard to

and Schoch Is an exceptionally fast
runner. But with all these fine play
ers on the team they havcAt as yet
shown that they ere to be considered
as contendcrs for the Illinois valley
title this season.
Coach Dale of. Streator and Coach
Fellows Of La Sale haven't got better
material at their schools than Smith
has here, yet they have some of the
best high school eleycao around this
neck of the woods. They are all put

SAME thing, and they can start next
Saturday by winning the game with
the Princeton team. As has been
stated before, the material is there
and there is nothing to hindet them
from making good.
This morning Principal Charles II.
Kingman of the ottawa High school
intimated that he did not know the
reason why the school football team
wasn't making good this year. Mr.
Kingman has been an Interested and
enthusiastic follower Of high school
sports every since he has been at
tached to the school, but he also has
noticed the change in the caliber OF
the teams. This morning he stated
that the boys can have anything they
want If the old tackling dummy isn't
available to be used in their practice
they can have new one. Now, wha,
more could they want for? 1t is up
to Coach Smith and the players TO
put ottawa on the m3p in the Illinois
circle this wear.

Although Harold Woodward, former
o. II. s. football sensation didn't get
into the big Iowa.lllinois game Satur
day, in Crangle's place, he has a fine
chance of getting into the big argu
ment with Wisconsin next Saturday
Woodward so far this year hasn't had
chance to show his wares in any OF
the Big Ten games that Illinois has
participated in, although word was
received here and rumors were spread
that he was scheduled to play. He
made the trip last Saturday to Iowa
but Crangle, greatest fullback in the
Big Ten played the entire game
According to word sent out from
the Illini camp, Woodward and Daw-
son viii probably be the right new half
backs for the game next Saturday,
while Don Peden will be left half if he
is we'll enough. Jack Crangle will
lay off all week from scrimmage that
he might be in shape for the game.
Zuppke went to work last night to
rally the broken Illini eleven for the
battle against wisconsin next Satur-
day. He has indicated radical
changes in the lineup Al Mohr, who
played halfback went back to a guard,
but will be called upon to do the punt
ing. In this event Woodward will have
chance to make right half. and
should he make good during practice
this week at the Illini camp, he will
be given his first chance in the Big
Ten ring against Wisconsin.

e Ottawa's loss Of the gridiron battle
ITO Pontiac last Saturday on Kline
field, after they had held lead VI
until the last eight minutes of play
has caused considerable talk among
devotees of the great game in THIS
city. The big question which seems
apparently to be confronting every
follower OF the local team is what is
wrong with the high school eleven
and what are they lacking? OF
course, they put over a win against
the Spring Valley eleven several
weeks ago, to 0, but the truth OF i.
is that they were a bit lucky in that
contest, despite the fact that they put
up great battle and at times show
ed real, honest to goodness football
talent and determination that many
teams lack. But since then some
thing awful has gone wrong
Ottawa High has everything to turn
out championship squad this year.
The men who are at present repre-
senting the team are of title type and
bear the earmarks of a first-class high
school team. But they have some
thing lacking. There is an old foot
ball dummy" at the high school
which so far this season hasn't been
introduced to the members of the
present team. 1t is the full size OF
any ordinary football player and prob
ably IL Coach Smith would bring it
out, hang it up on that frame on King
field and let the lads practice tackling
d little bit every night some change
might follow. Lack of an ability to
properly tackle an opposing runner
who is carrying the ball has proven
one of the main causes why the high
school team hasn't gotten anywhere
this year Practically every member
Of the team tackles too high, with the
result that the man with the ball can
easily squirm out of their hold and
keep on going before the referee blows
his whistle.
Then there Is another point to b,
considered. Has tho forward pass
been discarded at O. H. s.? The for
ward pass is no doubt one of the most
important means of ground getting
and almost all of the big ten elcveng
and professional squads use it contin
ually, but it has only been attempted
,on two or three occasions by the red
and white players A more open game
and the free use of these passes
might also result in change of lucf
for the locals.
Farrell and Meckenstock are goot
at throwing forward passes and thu
ends or even the other half backs are
capable of getting down the field at {
fast rate of speed. Last Saturday tw.
passes were attempted The first one
was to Quarter Back Carr and i

Do YOU CATCH

HOW TO AVOID 1T

Colds are due to germs. No one can
prevent the germs from getting into
your nose and throat. But you can help
keep plenty of strong, vigorous, anti
bodies" in your blood to fight and kill
off the nasty "cold germs" before they
do you any harm.
To develop these germ destroying anti
bodies" properly, YOU must have plenty OF pure
rich, red blood and strong. vigorous constitu-
tion-in fact, this is the best prevsntativea against
almost any disease.
Ifyou are weak, nervous or run down. or sub
iect to colds, take no chances. One day you may
develop serious throat, bronchial or lung trouble
or perhaps pneumonia and you may go off like a
shot. Therefore commence to enrich your blood
and fortfy yourself against disease germs to-
day. To build more and better blood and make
stronger nerves, there Is nothing superior to
NCXATED IRON as 1t contains organic iron
