AUC|ELoSEST TO
WESLEYAN, so
Swedes Put Up a Great Battle
Against q Formidable Foe
Saturday.

Fate seems to be following the
heels of the Augustana college
football eleven, for although the
Swedish representatives played
rings around the Illinois Wesleyan
football huskies at Ericsson field
Saturday afternoon, yet the Bloom
ington eleven was fortunate enough
to take to 0 victory over Swed-
berg's men. A place kick by Cap
tain Gottschalk coming at the open
ing Of the second quarter gave the
master mastiff representatives the
coveted three points.
Saturdays defeat, however, is not
considered as such by Augustana
boosters. Conversely, it is regard
ed as a victory, not, of course, in
the literal sense, but morally. To
hold a team of the caliber of Illi-
nois Wesleyan, heralded as this
years probable state champions, to
such low score and completely
outplaying them during the entire
second half and a portion OF the
initial period, gives ,Augustana a
new lease on life.
The only score Of the game came
at the opening Of the second quar-
ter. Augustana was carrying the
pigskin on the 50-yard line. In the
initial play Ware intercepted a pass
on his own 40-yard marker. End
runs and line plunges by Haussler,
Zinzer and Ford took the leather
to Augie's 10-yard line. Three att
tempts to advance the ball were
unsuccessful, but on the next play
Gottschalk's toe spelled defeat for
Augustana, his place kick sailing
through the bars for the highly
valued three points.
To pick an individual start on the
Augustana team would be impossi-
BILE. 1t was an eleven-man team
which represented the Blue and
Gold. Every man put up the best
scrap of the season, and there is
little cause for any downhearted-
ness on their part.

BIG 10 TEAMS

YALE NEMESIS
At Last Five Conference Members
to Try for Scalp Of Conquer.
ing IewanS.

Chicago, Oct. 16.-Back from
their to 0 triumph over Yale,
Iowe's conquering heroes are at
once the pride Of the big Een. -
the idols of the middlewest and the
principal foe of five football teams
of the western conference in the
championship which reaches high
speed next Saturday.
Defeat of the team which hum
bled Yale is the foremost object OF
Iowa's five conference competitors,
Illinois, Purdue, Minnesota, Ohio
State and Northwestern. In the Dig
Ten schedule arrangement this fall,
three of the teams regarded as
among the most formidable con-
tenders for the conference cham
pionship, do not meet the Hawk
eyes. They are Chicago, Wiscon-
sin and Michigan.
Indiana also is off the Iowa
schedule, but the Hoosiers are
hardly considered dangerous
enough seriously to threaten the
championship aspirations of others
Of the Big Ten.
The fact that Iowa does not meet
three of the strongest teams in the
conference gives a wider range to
championship possibilities in the
Big Ten. Another element is the
absence Of a Chicago-Michiga
game this year. All these, factors
apparently give more teams a bet
ter chance for Big Ten football hon.
ors won by Iowa last fall.
The Hawkeyes meet Illinois, los
ers to Butler last Saturday, by a II
to Z score, in the annual Him
Homecoming" Other games OF
the Big Ten this week are: Purdue
at Chicago Indiana at Wisconsin;
Michigan at Ohio State; Minnesota
at Northwestern.

BY j. l.. HUGHES.

Crushed and battered by a much
heavier and better organized ma
chine, the Evansville team was
swamped by a 60 to 0 score at
Douglas park yesterday afternoon.
The Indiana aggregation put up a
plucky fight against great odds
and went down fighting to the last
against the driving power of the
Independents steam roller.
The visitors put up their best eff
forts in the first quarter, once hold
ing the Independents when within a
yard or two of goal and showing
enough fight to keep the islanders
to one touchdown in that initial
session. Again in the third quar-
ter the smaller players displayed a
dash of offensive ability that not
only brought them their initial
first down, but a couple more for
good measure and carried them to
within 10 yards of the islanders
goal. 1t was the first and only
time during the game that Evans
vile got past midfield.
/ Changes Lineup.
Captain Jimmy Councilman, sens
ing an easy contest when he first
sighted the Evansville crew, elect
ed to switch his lineup so as to
cause the least wear and tear on
the team. He played the entire
game at right halfback and used
Mike Casteel at quarter. Bridge
ford started at fullback and Usher
at the other half. Various changes
were made at different stages of
the game to give all men a work
out with the exception of Jerry
Johnson, for whom no chances of
injuring a bad ankle were taken.
The result was that all hands came
out of the fracas in first class con-
dition, an important matter when
it Is considered that Rochester is
coming next Sunday.
| Councilman led the scoring attack
with five touchdowns. Buck Gavin
contributed pair of markers, and
Lauer and Usher added up one each
in the course Of the afternoon.
Utilize" Voss kicked six goals from
placement after touchdowns out of
eight chances. On the first chance
Councilman tried a dropkick and
failed.
| Casteel Thrills.
Mike Casteel was the most spec
tacular performer of the afternoon.
The little field general dazzled the
natives by hYs brilliant runs
around end, one Of which covered
60 yards and gave the team a
chance to score its final touch
down. Another time he broke clear
of the field and was off on what
would have been a 70-yard run for
touchdown but for the fact that he
stepped, out of bounds after COW
eying 80 yards. In addition to
this feat he made a number of dash
es good for lesser distances.
| Councilman, Usher and Gavin
worked the old smashing game to
perfection. Their assaults of the
Evansville forward wall invariably
, Melted any distance that was need
ed. Councilman covered % yards
for one of his touchdowns, dodg-
ing several tacklers after breaking
through left tackle to a clear field
Lauer during the few minutes he
was in managed to find his way
across the goal line. Bridgeford
made several nice gains in the
early part of the game.

fleet of foot. 1t was evident that
behind a better team he would be
dangerous to any aggregation in
the country. He did what little
gaining was done by Evansville in
Intellectual efforts to pierce the In
dependents front wall, and for a
spell in the third quarter he and
Fullback Fausch worked the pass
ing game in real style.
The best bit of defensive playing
for Evansville was contributed by
Tackle Bondurant, who earlier in
the season was used by the Chi
cago Bears. Bondurant is a husky
who plays hard at every stage of
the game. He was largely respon-
sible for Evansville twice taking
the ball away from the islanders
with only a yard or SO to touch
down. One of these occurred in
the first quarter, soon after the
kickoff when the Independents had
marched the ball straight down
the field 60 yards, and again in
the third quarter.
The visitors punted on first
down almost invariably during the
first part of the game, giving the
Islanders line little or nothing to
do on defense. But even when
Evansville did try its hand at
smashing or skirting the ends, there
wasn't a chance to bake any head
way. Evansville got into Rock Is
land territory in the third quarter
by getting away with a couple of
one passes, bne Of which was good
for 80 yards. Once inside the 20
yard zone, however, the Islander
defense stiffened, and after three
unsuccessful attempts to gain
Fausch tried place kick from the
30-yard line and failed.
! Rock Islands first touchdown
did not materialize until near the
end of the first quarter. After be-
ing held for downs inside the
Evansville 5-yard zone, Rock Is
land got possession again on the
3S-yard line. On the first play
Casteel skirted right end for 16
yards. Successive smashes by
Councilman, Bridgeford and Usher
took the ball to the 10-yard line
from where Councilman shot of
left tackle for a touchdown.
Needed Only a Start.
Once the Independents had drawn
blood, it became almost impossi-
BILE for the visitors to check the
persistent onrush. The second
quarter produced four touch
downs, the assault starting with
Rock Island on Evansville's 25-
yard line. The quarter was featur.
ed by a 25-yard return of a punt
by Cascteel from midfield and
several lesser dashes by him and
