Creighton getting the ball. Brome immediately punted to Clancy, who dodged back for a clever run of 2') yards. Schneider and Robinson worsted the forward pass for a) yards and a touchdown, Robby going ever with the ball.

Acker missed an easy goal. Brome then booted the ball on the kick-off, going to Sullivan, who was downed in his tracks. Creighton here held well and an exchange of punts left the ball in midfleld in Crelghton's possession. A short kick was here attempted and when Robinson fumbled the ball Stevens picked it up and getting by Clancy, who made a nice dive for his man only to miss, went over the goal line for what looked to be a score. Umpire Bally, though, ruled an offside play on Bell's charges and the ball was brought back and Brome's team penalized.

After a nice forward pass by Schneider to Robinson had brought the ball well down into Crelghton's territory Schneider, on a fierce line buck, went over for a touchdown. Acker kicked goal. The last score In the first half came when Acker, catching Brome close to his line, punted over his head for 00 yards and St. Louis, holding for downs got the ball on their opponents' 10-yard line. Schneider then went over for a touchdown and Acker kicked goal leaving the score at the end of 30 minutes play 17-0, favor St.

Louis U. Omaha Smothered In Second Half. In the second half the strain of the contest began to tell on the lighter Omaha team and though they fought as gamely as ever, St. Louis with Its powerful smashing attack, was too strong for them and Cochem's men piled up 23 points in 25 minutes, making the final score 40-0. The game showed that St.

Louis IT. 1 now in fine physical condition and with Lamb and Brennan back In the line and Lee, if not out of the game at least away from tackle, the line should be able to do work on a par the back field and give St. Louis TJ. an even stronger team than represented It in 11XH3. The ltne-up: fit.

In a game in which the was no 1uIi-aMn of the ioreeness of the coo-test, I'nlverxity of Omaha went down to tlf: rut afternoon at Sportsman's Park before St.

Louis 'Diversity to the tune of 40 to 0. The Nebraskans fought gamely and with spirit and It was only the superiority of the Ht. Louis bark Held that resulted In the overwhelming score. Acker, Schneider and Kinney, the Blue and White trio of backs, played splendidly, and though Crelghton tackled bard and low, the visitors were unable te stop the local men on the muddy field. Tt was simply a case of weight and speed pitted against mere speed ami the combination naturally triumphed.

The field, especially at one end, where the ball diamond is situated, wfe.s a veritable quagmire, and yet, strangely enough, with the ball a slippery, slimy oval, Clancy, who was making his debut at quarterback for Cocheins, never once uncovered a fumble in handling the ball. Ills only drawback was that he loafed too much in calling his signals and starting his plays, but his selection was so splendid and his own individual work so clever that they far outweighed his sloth In commanding. Schneider Did Well. I Schneider was easily the star of tirst half and his line plunging was sistable. Acker came into his own the second half and with all his ability to hold his feet, tore off gain after gain in the second half, likewise the game demonstrated that the greatest ground-gainer In the West is also a capable man on defense, and his tackling, especially on Crelghton's favorite play, a brush of tackle, was the best seen on the local field since Dick Roche has been out of the game.

Cochem's line was not "there" and Morganthaler especially played rings around big Lee. Lee is entirely too green for the tackle position and shows llttlo ability when his grand physique Is considered. Sullivan, who was taking place, was not able to the tutk of tilling "Pig's" shoes and while not as notlcable in his failing as Lee, did nothing at all scintillating. Huges and Kenney at guard did yeoman si i vi-i and were nobly assisted by Orr hi center. I V.

Pretty Football In Klrnt.

The lirst half was an exhibition of pretty football. Crelghton opened the frame by booting to Schneider, who came for in yards. St. I-ouis V. KID P.R MAN MATCHED TO FIGHT PACKY M'FARLAND Pair Will Come Together at Davenport, at 133 Pounds, Nov.

Washington University's football team awoke to the fact that it plays St. Louis X. next Saturday, and defeated the Cape Girardeau Normals to the tune of 4-0 yesterday afternoon at "Francis Field," formerly the Stadium.

Courleaux, the star who was not in the fray when they met St. Louis, was "there like a duck" it was raining and did good work for the team, which he captained last season, but neither his nor the efforts of Hawkins, their brilliant fullback, could stop the fierce onslaught of Blanch-ard's charges. Washington had a slight edge on their opponents in matter of weight, but the speed and teamwork of the locals won the game for them. The three men who the Myrtle and Maroon hail in their line up for the first time this year. Stone, Thomas ami Vickers.

were the cause of the change in the spirit of the eleven's playing. Their presence seemed to make all tha others do better than they would have dont otherwise. Began Scoring Marly. In the opening half the Fikeway boys scored eleven points on the visitors, Thomas and Morgan getting the touchdowns, and Thomas kick in; one goal. The delayed pass was worked overtime and eacli attempt resulted in a gain.

The mud did not seem to have any effect on the forward pass, which was also used to good advantage by Washington. In the seeond period Hawkins did nearly all the work for the Normals. He backed up the line and more than once threw back the Washington runners after they had broken through the line. Courleaux, although playing well, was a disappointment to the down-Staters, who expected great things of him. His punting was fair, but tne rest of his playing was not nearly up to the standard set for him.

Oct. 26. In a nam teeming with fierce and brilliant plays Cornell defeated Princeton today In the closest and most excltln same of tha season. Score, 6 to 5. All the morning the streets and hotel lobbies were thronged.

Everywhere expectancy and suppressed emotion ruled. Speculation on the outcome continued- lo the blow of the referee's whistle. Although little Cornell money wu wa gered on the big red team to wln a great deal wan staked at even money that Cornell would score. Hundreds of pretty women resplen dent in furs and literally blossoming with large chrysanthemums, gave a touch of color to the scene. Kvorythliig was propitious for it contest in whi strength, courage and mental Qualities were to do battle.

The Princeton crowd, 500 strong, sang and cheered with nn ardor anl gallantry that only tba rn 'ii from Nassau can. The Cornell soujrs. too. were an Inspiration to her team and a source of Joy to the euthuslaliu crowd. Cornell Mop Tricks.

Harlan kicked off for Frlneefon an I Earlc ran the bull back 15 yards. Cornell was soon forced to punt and lrlrro-ton tried the Cornell ends. Falling litre, they resorted to forward passing an 1 fake kicking, but Cornell's defense was too strong. A Cornell halfback wasal-ways ready to Intercept those passes and the first half became a kicking diuel between Walder nnd Harlan, In which Walder excelled. The first half ended the score nothing to nothing.

McCormlck, In the second half, klclted out of bounds on his own 35-yard This was Cornell's chance. After falling to gain by rushing Cornell worked a beautiful forward pass on Prlnoetfin'a rigiit end, which netted 25 yards. Ifere Princeton fought gallantly, but Ooriell finally pushed Walder over for a tou'en-down from, which a goal wm esaily kicked. Score: Cornell, Princeton; Cornell rooters could not contain themselves for Joy, and Hughey Jennings was discovered en th side llpes blowing his famous whistle. Soon after the kick off Princeton' fumble k4v, Cornell th ball on Princeton's 40-yard line.

The forward passes brought it to Princeton's 5-yard line. Hero 'laxdner lost a chance for another scoro by signalling a forward pass play on the sec-cud tlown when only three yards from the goal line. Wister saved Prlncton by Intercepting this short pan. Cornell soon made another mistake when in- stead of signalling for a fair cac! flardner caught Mccormick's punt 'on the 40-yard line. He was tackled ss hard that he dropped lh ball.

The Indian football team of Carlisle came to Franklin Field today and beat the University of Pennsylvania In their annual football match, 26 to 6. The Redskins played the Quakers off their feet at times, getting 16 of their points in the first half. In each half Houser, the Indian, kicked a goal from placement, while Regan missed the only try for a field goal he had during the match. Twenty thousand people, the largest crowd at Franklin Field this season turned out to witness the ma tcii. A hard battle was looked for, but such an overwhelming defeat was not anticipated even by the Indians.

Indiana Never Headed. The Indians took the lead early in the first half, when Houser kicked a goal from placement. The Indians fairly bewildered the Quakers by their end runs, for which they made splendid interference, forward passe.4 and trick plays. Their formations continually had the home team puzzled. The Indians not only out-kicked Penn bjt also ran the kicks back further, and before the first half was over Payne scored another touchdown and the score was 16 to 0.

LHiring the half Mount Pleasant made a sensational forward pass of 40 yards. He repeatedly tried to again succeed w'th this play, but the Quakers found a way to stop it. (Ireene, Folwell and Hollenback several times leaped into the air and pulled down tho oval. l'enn braced somewhat In the second half and after Little Hoy had secured the ball on a fumble and made a touchdown, and Mount Pleasant kicked another goal, the Quakers prevented a shut-out by Dwyer picking up a fumble and getting over the Indians goal line for the Red and Hlues' one score, fear-let kicked the goal. Just before time was called Houser made another goal from placement, making the final score 20 to 6.

It was a most discouraging game for Penn. while the Indians put tip an ag gresslve game which astonished the crowd. Each team had great difficulty in getting through the line, but Houser and Mount Pleasant maae many ena runs and the Indians' formation for In terference were the best ever seen an the field.
