Huskies' McEIhenny
Gets Lesson as Foe
Comes From Behind
BY the Associated Press

CHAMPAIGN, H.. Oct. al
Hard-running Illinois gave Hur-
ryins Hugh McElhenny lesson
in rushing, in coming from be-
hind in the final half to club
=. Washington's Huskies from the
Sunbeaten ranks. 20-13, before
36,743 today.
Dick Raklovits, who scored two
Illinois touchdowns, and Johnny
Karras. who Tailed the other
keyed a pulverizing ground at
tack that crumbled the Huskies,
winners of four straight.
McElhenny, ranked high among
the Nations ball carriers, did his
yeoman's best. including spearing

from Don Heinrich to give Wash
ington a 1876 lead.
But Hugh's best, along with
Heinrich's two-touchdown passing
wasn't enough before the relent-
less nlini attack, which had to
overcome deficits of TO, 7-6 and
1876 and break a 1913 tie In the
final period.
Karras Smashes 1873 Yards.
Karras smashed 1873 yards in
rs tries and Raklovits 81 in 20,
compared with 70 by McElhenny
, in 20. In all, Illinois cruised 388
yards on the ground to 1873 for
Washington.
Washington scored first in the
second period. Halfback Bill Ear
ley grabbed a 25-yard pass in the
end zone. Jim Rosenzweig added
the point.
That signaled the start of an
up-and-down-the-f1e field parade by
both teams. Just before the half
ended, Illinois slammed II yards
In 10 plays to score. with Rak-
lovits driving over from the l.
yard stripe. A 38-yard jaunt by
Karras to Washington's was
the clincher.
Sam Rebecca's point try was
wide and Illinois trailed, rs.
In the third period the Huskies
scored on Henrich's 23-yard pass
to McElhenny.
This time Rosenzweig missed
and it was Washington 13, 1lli-
nois 6.
Pass Interception pays.
A 2l-yard aerial shot from Fred
Major to Raklovits after a re-
covered tumble swept the Illini |
to the Huskies' 2. Karras rammed
over tackle for a touchdown. This |
time Rebecca converted and it
was a tie, 1913.
The payoff touchdown in Illi-
nois' third victory of the season
stemmed from an interception of
a Heinrich pass. In six plays. |
Illinois had the touchdown.
In perhaps the key play of the
game, Raklovits-on a fourth
down-2-yards-to-go-try - dashed
II yards to Washington's 8.
Two plays later. Raklovits
slammed through the middle for
a touchdown. Rebbeca. converted
for the eventual final score, 20 |

to education because the "psy-

I believe, notwithstanding Iegis-
lative guards to prevent Federal
control, you cannot prevent that
psychological influence of appre-
ciation.
"Our attitude toward Federal
aid is this: 1t is acceptable in
the form Of scholarships to in
dividual students who select their
own schools and for service rem
dered. But in keeping with the
whole American picture of educa-

Monument Capped IS Years Ago
By John CIoeett Proctor

Many Of us who saw the cap
stone of the Washington Manu-
ment put in position, saw the
aluminium tip added as a final
touch, and witnessed the exercises
dedicating the great white shat
to the memory of the Father O.
His Country-With an address b,
President Arthur can hardly
realize that next Wednesday, Feb
ruary %, we will be just IS years
older than we were when these
services took place on February
81, 1885.
The Washington of more than
six decades ago was city of
horses and carriages, and just a
few high bicycles; without auto
mobiles. radios and television sets,
and had very few telephones. To-
day with population of upward
of one million people, it is profusely
lighted by electricity, has thou
sands of automobiles and has ex-
panded far into Maryland as we'll
as into Virginia. and we see a
Transformation almost inconceiv-
able even to the point of imagina-
ton.
AS to the Monument itself,
many of us can still recall the
incompleted shaft before work
was resumed August 7, 1880, after
control over it had been sur
rendered to the Federal Govern
ment by the Washington National
Monument Society.
Society Started the Idea
Too much credit cannot be
given to this notable organization
for it's part in carrying forward a
work substantially pledged by
Congress in some form or other,
as early as 1888, but never en-
tirely fulfilled. George Waters
ton, first librarian of Congress
and a Washingtonian, appears to
have been the man with the orig
inal idea, or at least the power
behind the throne. He became
the first secretary of the society,
which was the outcome of a meet
ing held in the City Hall (now the
Courthouse), September 26, 1888
In October following, a consti-
tuition and bylaws were adopted
and officers were chosen. John
Marshall, the great expounder of
the Constitution, then the Chief
Justice, was chosen the first pres
ident, though he was. at that
time. 78 years of age. Judge
William Cranch, a learned jurist,
was selected as first vice presi-
