I I 34 10 GEM CITY'S 0 Gem City College, Late in Ar riving, Puts Up Poor Game in Curtailed Contest A handful of faithful enthuslatts waited In the chill air for more thsa two hours at Christian Brothers' College campus yesterday afternoon to see 14 minutes of loose football. The looseneaa was furnished by the Gem City Business College team, which encountered considerable difficulty in reaching the scene of battle rather the stage for the comedy. To get down to the result, E. in 14 minutes, piled up a total of 34 points on the Quincy aggregation.

Thanks to darkness, no more tallying was done. For a starter the Quincy bunch looked at a time table and figured to arrive In St. Louis at 2 clock. The train they boarded was an hour and a half late in reaching Quincy. But the players and coach hopped aboard arid got to the Washington Avenue Station at 4:05.

Brother Lawrence, after telephoning Union Station officials, learned that the train was late and sent a flock of automobiles to the Washington Ave nue Station to speed the warriors to the campus. Regulars Missed Autos. Those who piled out were loaded in the chug-chugs and whizzed to Academy and Easton avenues. When noses were counted. it was learned that four of the reirulars had been beaten to the auto seats by as many substitutes and the regulars had to take yellow limousines to the football park.

That created another delay, but about 200 fans were faithful and waited. The town clock struck 5 o'clock when Capt. Menges kicked off to the Quincy team, no two players of whom wore uniforms alike. Somebody said the Gem City captain was bald-headed. Reason: He wore a can.

At any rate, two minutes after aforesaid kickoff. Johnny Magner bowled off a half- Btiegeu lacaiers ana riDDed orr a touchdown after a run of some 33 yards, Quinn followed this by Kicking the goal. That a all the scoring that was done in the first seven minutes, or first period, it being agreed before the start that the quar ters would have to be chopped. The local collegians, towever, outplayed the visitors at every stage and had the ball In Gem City territory most of the time. Foor Tonchdoawa la Second.

It was in the second and final period of seven minutes that the C. B. C. backs plunged through the Gem City defense at will, bearing the Quincy goal. Collins fum bled the ball, but Magner pounced on the pigskin and skipped over for touchdown No.

During the middle portion of the ouarter. jonnny magner tnrew himself at a Quincy player and received a blow in the kidney. He retired, but after an examination by Dr. Brady, It was announced that he was not badly hurt. While he lasted.

Magner made a gain every time he received the ball. Van Tress and Lynn also played well, while Allhstrom and McFarland in the line did creditable work.

POINTS as iii i. i i IS YEAR Team Beats Creighton, but Clean Record Is Marred by Nebraskans. WINNERS GET 28 POINTS After Weakening in Second Period, Blue and White Plays Well in Third Session.

OMAHA. Nov. 2. The St. Louis University eleven won its game from Creighton University by a top-heavy score this afternoon, but even In victory, the Blue and White men had a bitter taste, inasmuch as the i local aggregation managed to score.

Prior to the contest, the St. Louis U. team owned a clean and untarnished record. Eut now three points mar i the heretofore unblemished slate, the result of a goal from the field. Against this Coach Dennle's crowd I scored 28 points, having tallied four 1 touchdowns and as many goal kicks.

Th game was remarkably free from rough playing and there was a minimum of penalizing. St. Louis opened strong and car-; ried the fight into Creighton's end of the field, keeping the ball there In i almost the entire first period. The result was a touchdown, but in the second quarter the visitors teemed to have lost their energy and push while Creighton was strong and fresh. Creighton rooters took heart at this period of the game and were justified in the hopes and belief that St.

Louis was doomed to defeat. But with Ratican, Zachritz. Snyder and Maguire, St. Louis had nothing to fear from Creighton and only when the pigskin was sent over the heads of the visitors when Taralse made a drop kick from the 20-rard line was St. Louis scored against.

Touchdown la a Hnrry. Just 2 minutes were required by St. Louis to reach Creighton's 6-yard line, this end being accomplished by a aeries of terrific line smashes. Here Creighton got the ball on a fumble and Tamisea kicked to center. Vrgaln St.

Louis went down the field on line smashes until Creighton's 10-yard line ws reached. The ball got back to center on punts and a forward pass. Zachritz to Maguire, netted St. Louis 40 yards to Creight-ton's 15-yard line. Snyder went over for a touchdown and Ratican kicked goal.

On the kick Creighton received on Its 30-yard line and a forward pass brought the ball to St Louis' 9-yard line, where it was saved from going over, by the call ef the nd of the quarter with St. Louis ahead, to 0. During the next 10 minute 6t. Louis fwas wobbly and Creighton's hopes ran hie-n. The quarter opened with the ball on St.

Louis' 9-yard line and throughout the entire tod the pigskin did not reach Creighton's side of the field. During this session St. Louis battled like mad to keep from going to piece and gathering itself together recovered anrl when the first half ended the ball was in the center of the field and in possession of St. Louis. Ratican Makes Long Gain.

On the last play of the period, Ratican went through Creighton's line for 40 yards. In the third quarter St. Louis came up strong, while Creighton was begtnlng to 'weaken. Ratican ot the ball and went right down through Creighton's field and over the line for a touchdown. Maguire kicked goal.

Batlcan kicked off fur a touchback and hy heavy line smashes the ball went to Creighton's 10-yard line. Zachritz then went around the right end for a touchdown and again Maguire kicked goal, making the score Pt: Louis SI. Creighton O. The end of the quarter a minute later saved Creighton from another touchdown. Snyder Makes Last Score.

The first two minutes of play in the last quarter gave St. Louis its fourth and last touchdown. This came when St. Louis car-rled the ball on line smashes and Snyder was jent over and Maguire. for the third time, was called upon to kick goal.

After Maguire kicked off on a short fake, 35., Stadtherr fumbled and Creighton recov ered. A forward pass netted 20 yards and Creighton lost on downs, while St. Louis held like a wall. After a series of smashes and short gains, the bail reached center and St. Louis was penalized 15 yards.

A forward pass nutted Creighton 15 yards more and Tamisea executed a drop kick from the 20-yard line, making Cregihton'a firai and smly score. The came ended with the ball In the cen ter of the field in St. Louis' possession. The lineup: Creighton (3). Positions.

By CLARENCE F. LLOYD. "I don't care how many clubs make offers to me.

or what attractive terms they are willing to propose, I not consider them right now." That's what Roger Bresnahan, deposed manager of the Cardinals, had to say Just prior to his departure for his home in Toledo, last night. Bresnahan Is suffering from a severe cold. He would like to linger In St. Louis a while, awaiting developments in his case, but has chosen to go to his home in Toledo to recuperate. He says he knows officially of only two clubs who have put in bids for his services.

They are Pittsburg and Chicago. Word comes that Owner Dreyfuss and Murphy desired to bolster their respective forces with the Duke came In a teb-gram from President Thomas J. Lynh of the NationaJ League. That the Cin cinnati and Brooklyn clubs are willing to take over Bresnahan is evident from reports from these two National League cities. But Bresnahan is sitting still in the boat.

He realizes thai by tying himself up with some other club-bis unconditional release by Mrs. Britton makes him free to do this he might jeopardize his case. He believes he has an excellent chance of collecting all the salary $10,000 a year and 10 per cent of the yearly spoils and will not take a chance of losing out on collecting this sum through a technicality. rtratea Xeed Roger. It would seem that the Pittsburg club is the most eager to procure Bresnahan's services.

Not only has President Dreyfus of the Pirates officially made claim to the big backstop, but his secretary, Will Locke, personally called on Bresnahan last week. Bresnahan admits that Locke saw him. He declined to tell what the nature of Locke's business was, however. A Pittsburg yarn that has little foundation came out of Smoke-town yesterday, saying that it wouldn't be surprising if Bresnahan caught and Frank Chance, deposed Cub leader, played first base, for the Pirates in 1913. That Bresnahan will, with George do the backstopping for the Pirates is a little premature, inasmuch ns Roger says he hasn't conferred any club owner regarding his 1913 movements, and doesn't propose to do so un-il he has settled matters with tlm firm of Britton, Jones Co.

The Chance end of the deal also no-pears Impossible. Chance, like Bresnti han, probably would consent to sevn as a private in only one town. If Bresnahan could slip out of the National League he'd probably be glad of the opportunity to do the catching for the Browns, to show that he is still a valuable player and, also, to serve as a magnet in keeping the crowds away from Robison Field and draw them to Sportsman's Park. Chance has been quoted as saying that he would serve as a private under Kvers, to show that he's still a flrt baseman of top notch caliber. Chance would like to move over to the South Side and play for the White Sox, where his popularity would wean away the mobs that usually turn out at the Cub's park.

2. Beef jr Nebraska, the loss of Wilson at Missouri's center, and a fresh quarterback for the Cornhuskers. decided the hard-fought football game here this afternoon, by the score 7 to 0 for Nebraska. The Tigers were handicapped 14 pounds to the man and played the better game, in the first quarter. Weight, in the last half, began to tell as the light Missouri team was worn down.

The quarrel of Wilson, Tiger cett- er, and Mastin, Nebraska guard, re sulted in both men beinsr taken out of the game. Wilson had been hold- ng his own against Allen, Nebraska center, who had 59 pounds the super- or weight. A 25-yard forward pass. Towle to Howard, gave the Nebraskans the nance they scored on later.

Towle Scores Touchdown. After this the Cornhuskers shoved Tigers to the S-yard line, where Towle plunged through for a touchdown by 4 yards. through r'sht guard. Towle kicked goal. Score, Nebrapka 7, Missouri 0.

The Nebraskans. who hsd been playing the best game, the entire last half, came back with a sweep and were not checked until they lost on the fourth down at the Missouri 1-yard line. The Tigers then came back with a smashing line plunging and end runs, but had gained only SO yards by the time the game was up. The game was free from long runs. Weight Wins Game.

It was beef against wiry men with equal football science in each team. Missouri succeeded in two forward passes IS yars total and Nebraska for a gain of 45 yards. The Cornhuskers were penalized 65 yards during the game and Missouri only 30. Missouri had two chances to score in the first quarter, but an intercepted pass across goal and Shepard's failure on the 20-yard line to boot a field goal, lost these. Nebraska also fa lira a field goal In the second Quarter when they first got within striking distance.

Peterson Will Again Play With Soccer Champs Manager Will Klosterman of the St. Leos. has succeeded In Inducing Herbert Peterson, the clever halfback, to change his mind about retiring from soccer football. Peterson, therefore, will be seen In the remaining games of the season with the champions. He's scheduled to play against the Business Men's Ath letic Club team this afternoon.

Klosterman also announces that "Tan Tallman, one of the Coal City family of kickers, has moved to St. Louis and will play with the Leos He'll probably lineup in the forward department. Len Zurehell, a clever halfback, will make his debut with the Business Men's eleven. He Is the player over whom three managers were disputing. He performed with the Irish-Americans la3t season, but this year was claimed by Klosterman and Manager Foley of the Innisfails as well as Manager Houlihan of the Business Men's eleven.

Houlihan will prob ably make other changes In his team. Ftnnegan Signs New Mea. The other game Is between the Columbus Club and Innisfails. Manager Flnnegan of the Knights will show a couple of new faces. He hss signed Will Brady, a brother of "Tate" Brady, the fullback, for his forward line.

He received a broken nose In the game with the St. Leos last Sunday and will be unable to take his place In the advance department. Peters, who is Foley's extra forward. Is 111 and will be unable to sub for Hagerty. That will force Foley to shove Pete Ratican to forward and use V.

Washington University's football team withered In the waning moments of yesterday's gruelling conflict with the husky warriors of Drake and the Des Moines visitors, inspired by their foes' manifest weariness, cut loose a burst of speed that swept Cayou's courageous gang down to a 3313 defeat. Starting the final period, the score stood 13 12 in favor of Washington. Half of Drake's total had been made on field goals. Washington's two touchdowns eventuated from forward passes across the goal line. But in the last stand, the Plkeway eleven, outweighed 15 pounds to th man, lacked the stamina and rallying power to cope with the well-conditioned visitors and was swept off the field by dint of a merciless attack.

Drake gained three touchdowns in the final period. Its varied attack having the Pikers completely baffled. Cayou's Ponies OntrrelsBed. Considering the advantage which Drake had in avoirdupois there is little in the visitors' victory for them to gloat over. Washington really outplayed and out gamed the big Iowans.

Cayou's pony backfield Milford. Morrell and Pothoff lived up to their reputations for speed and aggressiveness. They ripped Into the Drake line with the speed of shells shot from cannons and they stopped only when more than one Drake man impeded their path. The most heroic work of the day was done by Hardaway, the Washington quarterback. He played through the last half with a torn ligament in his right shoulder and was utterly unable to raise his arm to the level of his chin.

Despite this Injury, though, Hardaway made the best open field tackle of the game in the third quarter. Buns, the speed-mad halfback, had broken through the Pikeway line and eluded the secondary defense and was charging down the field with only Hardaway between him and a touchdown. Hardaway ran to met him. Bunz tried a half-hurdle, but failed to fool the little field general who brought the big halfback down with a thud. Bunz took out time and accomplished little after that.

Forward Pnsnes Aid TV. IT. Both of Washington's touchdowns resulted from forward passes across the goal line. Pothoff scored the first. Milford tacked on the second on a neat pass from Morrell.

Th Drake backs were completely unprepared for this mode of attack on both occasions. It was a peculiar game to watch. Right at the start of hostilities Washington seemed utterly unable to check the attack of Drake's massive trio of backs. Crull, Bunz and Simons, all six-footers and none weighing less than 185, plowed their way through the light Plkeway line, with disastrous results Less than seven minutes after play began Drake had scored a touchdown, and Wash lnsrton was made to look bad. About 3rO0 fans settled back In their seats with a moan They figured the game a lop-sided affair.

Then Drake kicked to Washington. Morrell rushed through center for a 10-vard gain on the first play. Milford shot through right tackle on a cross buck for seven more. Pothoff, on a straight buck through hla side of the line, delivered a gain of nine. And then the parade started.

Pikers Gain Ground Steadily. The Pikers' speed bewildered the Iowans, who fell back before the rapid-fire attack of the locals. However, when within shadow of the goal post. Washington came to a sudden stop. The secondary defense reinforced the Drake forward line and the Pikeway attack was repulsed with a loss.

Washington lost the ball and again the fans despaired of the local eleven's success. But Drake kicked and W. men promptly began another march to their adversaries' goal. This march successful when Quarterback Hardaway pulled the unexpected and called for a forward pass across the goal line. Pothoff received the.

ball and planted it behind the uprights. Hardaway then kicked goal and the Pikers were out In front. The Pikers then for two quarters put up the most stubborn battle seen on a local gridiron in years. They had possession of the ball three-fourths of the time and al-ways had the edge when on the offense. Indeed, both teams seemed strong, on the attack.
