But Connors returned the boot to midfield and Oleeson and Manning, who throughout the game gave their kicker splendid tackling support, were there to nail Delmar in his tracks. For the rest of the quarter the ball chamMl hands with St. Louis U. never able to gain and Marquette never in striking distance, though plainly superior on attack. That Marquette was terribly shocked, not to say pained, at the unexpected resistance was shown in the second quarter, when St.

ljouis F. played their opponents practically even for ten minutes. The enemy uncovered many forward passes, but without success, the play not being properly covered for the man receiving the ball. Time and again the aggressive St. Louisans batted the ball out of reach of the Marcjuette man, ruining the play.

Outweighed, outplayed, apparently a step below their rivals In class, but not outgamed, Cleveland High School was forced to grovel in the slime of a 21 to 0 defeat the hands of Soldan in the curtain raiser at High School Field yesterday afternoon. Cleveland made as plucky a battle against odds weighing heavily against them as any local eleven has exhibited this season.

They were fighting to the last whistle and they died hard in e-ery sense of the term. Soldan. the polished team, exhibited an impregnable defense on the few occasions when they were playing that end of the game, and simply rushed its lighter opponents off their feet when they had the ball. The and Brown eleven counted a. touchdown in the opening period on one of those breaks so common to a gridiron tussle.

Within 15 yards of their goal. Cleveland obtained pos-; hefcsion of the ball and attempted to punt out of the danger zone. The kick was blocked and dribbled be-: hind the goal line. Peters fell on it for the first touchdown, Schnaus kicking the goal. Cleveland Outplays Rivals.

In the second period. Cleveland came with a rush and in this one rl.m.a really outplayed their adverse ries. However, try as they would, they couldn't quite make the posts the session ended scoreless, with Soldan carry a 7-point advantage at the conclusion of the half. The last two touchdowns, one in the third and another in the fourth periods were counted by Bradley. Schnaus contributed the two goals that brought the final count up to 21 to (i.

In the fourth period, Cleveland again attempted to punt out of danger when Soldan lost the ball on the former's 20-yard line. Once more, however, the effort was blocked and Peters fell on the ball giving Soldan another scoring opportunity.

Bradley again went over after receiving a pass from Schnaus. Game Clean Throughout. The game was clean all the way and few penalties were inflicted. Cleveland had but little success at passing- and also was handicapped in that the beefy Soldan line always held tishtly. precluding the possibility of gains by plunging.

Tho llusker backfield played true to form and rammed its way through the light Missouri line or circled the ends almost at will. Shellenberg gave an especially dazzling exhibition. Missouri was outweighed nearly 15 pounds to the man and yet the Tig-i ers fought desperately against over- whelming odds, carried the fight to Nebraska territory in the third period, when they forfeited the ball on the Husker 3-yard line and blanked Nebraska in the final period.

The entire Nebraska baekfield played wonderful football, with Cook. Dobson. Shellenberg and Kellogg hitting- the line and sweeping the ends for long and consistent gains.

Nebraska scored twice in the first period, three times in the second and thrice in the third.

Cook contributed the most thrilling play for the second, taking the ball on the Nebraska 25-yard line and run- ning yards in returning a punt, lodging- through the entire Missouri team.

After that the Huskers slashed 'vigorously at the Missouri line. Shellenberg and Dobson doing most of the work. Missouri Loses Chance. Toward the close of the third period Missouri lost her only cuance to score. The Tigers took the ball on their own 25-yard line.
