Iowa defeated Illinois here today
21-0.
Tom Farmer, Iowa's junior half
back, led the Hawkeyes to their
victory. Farmer passed to Bill
Parker. Iowa left end. for two
touchdowns, plunged over himself
for third score and place kicked
3 points after touchdown.
Iowa'S line outweighed the Illini
by more than 10 pounds to a man
and this proved a vital factor
Jimmy Smith and Liz Astroth led
the Illini attack which begged
down three times while in scoring
territory. The best chance came
in the second quarter when George
Milosevich ended the opportunity
by dropping a pass on the 15-yard

5000 More Made

These went so fast that a second
edition of 5000 more was made.
Still that wasn't enough. So in
1889 the third issue went to $1,000
and this year 10000 we're distrib-
uted and still the demand isn't
filled.
The object of the association is
the elevation of the sport as a
whole. The group works not only
for the members but for also
amateur skaters throughout the
United States. -ia----
The international style of skate
dancing which has been developed
in this country has created such
an increased demand from the
general public that the interest in
the sports has grown over the
span of few short years to the
first sport in the country for actual
participation.
Not only has the association done
all this but it has also raised the
morale of skaters, has assisted the
Kinks whether they are members of
the group or not in polishing up.
and has created bigger and better
Kinks.
The association is not partial to
any particular point but rather its
object is to elevate and perfect
the sport so that when the war is
over American boys and girls may
participate with the European
skaters and gain international rec-
ognition in the sport they love so
well. Therefore it is the duty Of
every one engaged in the sport to
! aid in this advancement.

Considered Group

Prior TO this time they had
given about 10 years of considera-
ton to the formation of such a
group. Since that time the work
has been so great and the interest
shown by the amateur skaters of
the country has been so gratifying
that all the expectations of this
group have been far surpassed in
just four years,
The weight Of the duty is SO
great that il requires a staff OF
six people in the national office
here plus a dance committee, a
figure skating committee, a speed
committee and an amateur rules
leemmittee to carry on.

awfully good cook. He's about sixteen

he could handle food and cooking
tools 1t was natural aptitude, though
his cooking had, and still has, to be
judged by the results rather than the
methods. But he can make anything,
including a marvellous layer cake.
This is sea-faring. sea-wise, sea-
story-writing William McFee talking.
His speech still holds the echo of his
English descent, with the special in
flection of British men of the sea. His
face has the ruddy look sailors so
often get, and his blue eyes have
seaman's Candor and directness. Not
only is Mr.. MCFee the descendant OF
a sea-captain father and grandfather;
he was actually born at sea, on a
voyage home from India in a three
masted square-rigger, "Erin's Isle. of
which his father was designer, builder,
owner and master.
AS young man McFee himself went
to sea as a ships engineer, and it was
in a ships cabin that he began writing
the books about the sea which were to
bring him literary fame. In 1912 he
came to America to live and write. But
he grew restless for the sea again and
found a place for himself in our mer-
chant marine Then in 1914 he went
home to England to enlist for the first
World War. Refused by the Army, he
became an engineer officer and, later, a
subieutenant in the British Navy.
After that he returned here to our
merchant marine, until marriage and
the demands of his writing forced him
permanently into landlubber's role,
and he settled down in Connecticut.

rafting good cooks. know that from
personal experience" MIR. McFee says.
