Special: An epidemic of tonsilitis, the knowledge of which local coaches have been trying to withhold and which repeated fumigations in the gymnasium have failed to eradicate may spell the defeat of the Mason City football team this week. Footsore and weary, tired and sick, after "the gruelling contest at Waterloo Saturday when the West High school team of that city was defeated 12 to 0, the proteges of Coach West are, doing their best to prepare for the North High game at Des Moines next Saturday.

Tackles in Poor Condition. Captain Zlma wrenched his knee in the last lew minutes of play in the Waterloo game and while the injury did not appear serious at that time, he is feeling worse at the present time and will probably bo kept from practice during part of the week at It is this which the local coaches fear. If Zima and Stanton, both tackles and the heaviest men on the team, are unable to play, great fears are expressed on the work which Morton, the Des Moines fullback, may do. Their absence would weaken the Mason City defense greatly.

The strong Morningside college tribe will Invade this city Saturday for a clash with the cadets. One of the largest crowds that has witnessed a football contest here since Thanksgiving 1915 Is expected at Saturday's tilt. It Is conceded that Coach Saun-derson's eleven will pile up a good score on Coach Dorals' men, as the Purple and Gold players have not been going at a championship pace at any time this season. The Dubuque tutor was confronted with a task that few coaches would care to undertake when he began work this fall. War and graduation completely wrecked, last season's Hawkeye conference and Catholic college championship aggregation, and one of the strongest schedules in the history of the institution had been arranged for the 1917 eleven.

There was not a man among the new candidates who had college experience and very few had good high school training. The performance of Ahmann at fullback is the latest development on the cadets' gridiron. Ahmann was understudy to Dalton last season, but he failed to Bhow much class this fall until recently. He was Dubuque's most consistent ground gainer in the St. Ambrose and Upper Iowa conflicts.

Cayanaugh ranks as Deer of the local linemen. He weighs more than two hundred pounds and is considered one of the most promising athletes who ever stepped on the Dubuque field. His stellar work in the Creighton game was largely responsible for the splendid showing of Dorals' men. Although it Is expected that Morningside will run up at least thirty points on the Purple and Gold tribe, local fans hope to see a real exhibition. The cadets fight up to the last whistle, and they make their opponents work for every inch of territory.

This clash will mark the renewal of athletic relations between the two colleges after a lapse of five years. ALLISON WINS ON FOUL Waterloo Boxer Outclasses Motrle In (rood Battle. WATERLOO, -Nov. 12.

It was the third bout between the two boys, the first two resulting in draws.
