Eckersall is the Star. The work of the Maroon team around the little dodging quarterbjcK.

His clever wolk in running uack punts soon taught iscotisin to kaep the hall away Horn him as much as possible when Wisco siiii forced to punt, but on tne ulteii.se EcKirsalls worn stood out. Two spectacular runs on trick plays, one of them for thirty-two yatds. brought the enormous crowd to their feet cheering madly. It was this run for tnirty-two varus, in fact, that made possible the drop kick that followed Immediately utter. Chicago got lie hail in tiie middle of the Held for holding, the only time Wise.msin was penalized in the game, with the exception of five yards on the hist kick off for oftslde play.

Then, with the ball almost In the center of the gridiron, and within thirteen yards of the Wisconsin goal Eckersall dropped hark for his third trial at a drop kick nnd then ho succeeded. Wisconsin Fights for Score. Wisconsin tried hard to make a touchdown, following this, and fairly toro the Chicago hno to pieces for a few minutes, marching down the field to wiohin twenty yards of Chicago's goal. Rut here the ball went over on downs with only two or three inches to spare, hut with this vanisied Wisconsin's last hope.

outside, ot Eckcrsall's work that of Captain Catlln, of the victorious Maroon team, stood out. He was deep into every piaj protected his end of the line beau-titully and time and again his sure tackling prevented long gains 'by tiiie Wisconsin hacks. On straight football, however, the Wisconsin team excelled. Chicago's mass on tackle, heretofore a sure ground winner, was broken up as a rule with but small gain, Bertke and Johnson, the Wisconsin tackles, outplaying Hill and Bade-noch. The battle between the opposing ends was a pretty one.

Catlln rather 011 1 played Brlndley, while Bush for Wisconsin put Parry out of the play a number of times. Chicago right was pounded fearfully by hue Wisconsin bai'ks and in the second half Wisconsin carried the ball down the Hi Id from her own forty yard line to Chicago's twenty yard line on plays mainly directed against the Maroon left side before Chicago braced sufficiently to get the ball on downs. Wisconsin during this time and during the latter part of t' first half clearly outplayed Chicago, but Eckersall's beautiful work and his clever generalship in playing his team entirely on the defensive after ho had made his drop kick brought a hard earned victory for Chicago. Wan a Fierce Struggle. The struggle was probably one of the fiercest ever seen on a western gridiron.

It was football, clean, hard, each man playing to the last ounce. Little fumbling was done. Chicago men let the ball get aw ay from them three times, the last tune almost resulting In a touchdown for Wisconsin ns Eckersall dropped a punt on Chicago's fifteen yard line. Wisconsin fumbled twice. Outside of this Ihe play was clean and sharp.

Chicago use, no substitutes, while Wisconsin used two, Deering and Clark replacing Johnson end Elndlay near tho close of the second half. Summing up the whop! game, Wisconsin line was apparently the heller; the team as a whole a little better balanced than Chicago's. But tho DAY Pi CHICAGO for Chalmers.
