CHAMPAIGN, Ill, Oct. 10.-Min-

came to stunning end today when
lowly regarded Illinois team forged

35-yard run by Guard Alex Agase

of the Gophers' star, Bill Daley
They used Minnesota concoction-
a double lateral-to go ahead, 13 to
T. in the third period. And after
Minnesota tied it in, the final quar-
ter Illinois won the game when
Agase plunged onto a loose ball in
the end zone for his second touch
down.
The loss was Minnesotas second

Iowa Seahawks a week ago, to 6.
And it was the third straight tri-
umph for the Illini, who apparently

perb play of the Illinois line, five
of whose players performed the en-

difference. There were nine Mime
sofa fumbles, and they hurt the
Gophers plenty.
They played a scoreless first Pc
riod, Illinois blocking one Gopher
drive on the Illini 81 by nabbing a
tumble, and the Gophers stopping
the Illini on the Minnesota 13 on
tumble.
And it was the Gophers who
scored first. on an 80-yard runback
of punt by their speed specialist,
Daley, who trickled through the
Illini defense midway in the sec
ond period Bill Garnaas kicked the
point for 7-to-0 Minnesota lead.
Illinois received the kickoff and
punted. Daley ran to his own IS,
where two Illini linemen hit him a
crunching blow. One of them was

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Oct. 10
Harvards football team never was
one to peer too closely at the molars
of a gift horse and that willingness
to gamble enabled the more inept
Crimson to battle to TT deadlock
today with William and Mary.
The break came late in the third
period when william and Mary,
leading by virtue Of a score in the
first minute of the frame, was
standing of Harvard attack in
Indian territory for only the second
time in the somewhat dull game.
The -zealousness of the Will
liam and Marys doubtless proved
their undoing, for with Harvard
preparing to angle kick into the
coffin corner from the Indian 35,
the Southern boys swarmed irto
the Crimson backfield to the ac-
compartment of the head linesman's
horn.
Presented with five unexpected
yards, the Harvards tried for the
remaining four and a first down
and instead collected II by virtue
of pretty pass from Cleo ODon-
nell, jr.. Crimson backfield spare,
to Right End Len Cummings.
Perkins Gets Big Down.
Paul Perkins, a bristling fullback
replacement, accounted for another
first down personally with three
savage slams at the William and
Mary left tackle. 1t was first down
and nine to the end zone as the
fourth period opened and William
and Mary started to heave at the
Harvard running attack.
Whereupon Master O'Donnell took
the ball, scampered toward his left
end and then tossed a diagonal pass
into the far right fiat. Perkins took
the heave on the dead run on the
3 and stumbled from there into pay
OH territory. Bill Barnes coolly split
the uprights for the tying point.
William and Mary, the better team
in almost every respect, tried des-
perately to recoup for this unfortu-
nate display of zeal, but only got into
more hot water in the midst of a
drive downfield. -
Penalty Costly to Indians.
Between them Johnny Korczowski
sub quarterback. and Bob Longacre
had accounted for so yards to the
Harvard 26 when the officials de-
tected an Indian holding and slapped
on a 15-yard assessment. Longacre
