Editor's Note This one at series of stories about former Iowa athletes written br R. E.

(Jobby) Jeanson, himself former Iowa State college football star. BY R. E. (JOBBY) JEAXSOX. It was back yonder in tbe fall ot 1907 when the writer was play-Ins; football at Ames tbat we Journeyed up to Sioux City to meet the Mornlngslde team and incidentally to spend a nice afternoon In drubbing the proteges of Ma.

John Griffith. It Is true that we won, but it was far from a pleasant afternoon for they or we might better say he, Ray Whisman, gave us a very busy afternoon, keeping him oft our goal line, and to the very end of the struggle we had to bend every effort to hold the big boy. Never has the writer seen one who could make so much trouble for a much superior team almost single handed. Whisman was a fellow who would weigh around 175 pounds of well distributed avoirdupois which was piloted and directed by one ot the coolest and clearest thinking brains. He had that happy combination of wonderful physique dominated by football sense.

Had Ray Whismsn been fortunate In having a star caste to aid and abet him, it is our opinion that his name would have become as much ot a household word as that of many ot our prima donnas of the present day. Gets Five Dropkirks In Game. His style of play resembled that of Heston more than any other player in that be ran best off tackle and it was his strong running and drive that made him so unstoppable. Let it not be understood, however, that he couldn't run in the open field, for he made many long dashes, but he managed to break away by simply going through and over all obstacles. Whismsn held the record of fire dropkicks from the muddy field against Hamllne at St.

Paul. The only man whom we recall who had as many to his credit was the redoutable Ekersall against both Illinois and Nebraska, but he had the advantage of a dry field. We fall to recall anyone west of the Mississippi who has tied this performance. Since Major Griffith coached him and is as good a Judge of football players on the hoof, as any man in the country, we are i giving you his estimate of this admirable player. Griffith Tells of Whisman.

Griffith goes on to say that "in some respects I think Whisman was the greatest football player that I have had the pleasure of coaching and when I say this I'm not forgetting that in the army I had men like Robertson ot Dartmouth, McCormlck of South Dakota, Allison ot Carle-ton, Jack Watson of Illinois, "Chuck" Lam ot Iowa and other men of that caliber. Whisman possessed one of the qualities which in my Judgment has made Grange a great ball carrier, namely his terrific driving power when he met the opposition. "I have noticed very frequently tbat the men who tackle Grange take out time. This same thing was true ot Whisman. He was not a remarkably fast man in track shoes but on the football field he ran with great power and had the knack of keeping his feet.

Consequently if a tackier hit him with only one arm 'Whis' invariably broke through. In addition to his ability in carrying tbe ball he was a great punter and dropklcker and a very heady and aggressive defensive player. "He featured a fake kick play which in a measure was peculiarly hts own. W. did not have any tlgnal for him to run from punt forma, tlnn.

Howtvlr. h. would frequently fak. to kirk the ball and then when tha opposing ends made an effort to block the kick 'Whin' would take the ball under hie arm, atlffarm the opposition and atart down tha field. I never had another kicker who could pull off this play successfully.

I might add that It use! to make hla ende eore enme-timaa when they would look back to aeo Whia' lugging tha ball bentna them. Thla play of hla won a lot of Samoa. Stands Much Punishment. "Wtlleman could take a lot or punishment and then come back harder than aver.

Siler wgts loudly cheered as he left the ring, as was Gans, who was carried to his dressing room. Nelson and his seconds were hissed as they departed. Billy Nolan.

Nelson's manager, made a disconnected statement in which he said that Gans had promised not to claim the decision on a foul and yet he junmped at the very first opportunity to make such a claim. All Nelson would say was that Gans was tired and Quit. Gans Broke Right Hand. Gans In many ways put up a most remarkable battle. His endurance surprised everyone.

His work was the more wonderful when It is known that In the thirty-ninth round he broke his right hand. Never after that did he strike a blow with It. with the exception of a few short arm Jolts while clinching He did all his work with his left hand and put It all over Nelson. Gans stated after the fight that Nelson Intentionally fouled. He said he knew he could finish as he was comparatively strong and Nelson wss rowing weaker all the time, "harry ulllvan announced for Oans that he would meet Nelson In two weeks In another flsht, as he was sure he cntild whip him and did not want to take advantage of the foul.

First Hounds Very Fast. Tha first rounds of the flgbt were very fast. After that the men slowed up and only at Intervale was there a rally. Although (Jans was far ahead of Nelson In points and moat of the time looked like a sure winner. Nelson put up a wonderful fight on his side.

The endurance end recuperative powers shown by Nelson were extraordinary. Time and again Oans would Jolt him on the Jaw, sending the 4)ane bark. His knees would bend and his eyes become I axe but he, always fell Into a clinch and held on and would then come bark fighting as hard as ever In his peculiar style. The minute rest at the corner always did him aood and he would come up fresh and strong, On nearly half a cfoien occasions nrn It seemed another blow would put I he white boy out the gong rang and saved him. On several occasions, however.

Nelson apparently had the advantasre. He Vould hit Oans as they broke from a runcn and wrestle, uans sought a remarkably clean fight. He waa fair In everything and twicfe when he knocked Nelson down picked him up. One time when one of Uans' punches knocked Nelson through the ropes, Uans picked hi tn up and helped him to hta feet. As the colored boy stood with his handi down waltlna for Nelson to steadv him self, the "Hat tier" gave him a vicious mow tne stomach He was roundly hlsned for this by the crowd.

Uans won the toss for corners. He selected the southwest corner, by which the sun would be at his back. Uans wore short blue trousers and hues. He wore no socks. Nelson was clad tn light green trousers entwined with white, red and blue ribbons.

Gans had 12.000 in hills in his hands lhat he was ready to bet Nelson at unv odds the latter chose. As usual, Nolan made more objections. He claimed that Gans should have weighed tn with bandages.
