SATURDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER '14, iott 0 The Missoula High School To Fight Today for High Honors ALL KINDS OF SPORTS FOUND HERE Tiger Can Even Old Scores In Battle Against Bull Dog SO THE FANS MAY KNOW WHAT'S DOING Edited by D. D. Richards THE MISSOULIAN LOYOLA WILL PLAY MISSOULA'S HOPES LARGE CROWD WILL SEE BATTLE TODAY MONTANA III EC BRUINS WIN RAGGED CONTEST AND ARE NOW CHAMPIONS OF GRIDIRONS IN TWO STATES Although Superior to North Dakota Aggies in AH Departments of the Game, University Eleven Is Able to Make Only Two Touchdowns in Whole Afternoon's Work, Winning, 13 to 0 Much onFieid Slows Up Contest Robertson Is Hurt. THIS DAY BRUINS SUPERIORITY SHOWN BY DETAIL Montana today, by virtue of a 13-to-0 defeat administered to the Agricultural college football team, in a ragged football contest played on Montana field yesterday afternoon, holds the championship of the Flickertail and Treasure states. Montana demonstrated superiority in every department of the game over the victors but did not seem to be able to put over touchdowns when the opportunity was presented.

The 'Bruins, playing their normal game, are 40 points better than the North Dakota team met here yesterday. In the battle against the visiting Aggies too powerful and well drilled to be held in check during the October training period. Princeton's best playing was done against Dartmouth and Harvard and in both these games the Orange and Black brigade demonstrated that the Princeton eleven of 1914 was considerably above the average. The Tigers have faced a trying schedule all season and enter their final game prepared for the hard struggle that the Ells alwaya offer. Tigers Stronger.

During the past few years Princeton ha proved far more formidable, from a Yale standpoint, than was the case' earlier in the series. The Ells', last victory over the Tigers was in- 1910 when the final score was 5 to 3. Fiinceton won, 6 to 3, in 1911, this being the first defeat administered to a Yale team in eight years, and followed this success by holding the Blue to tie-score games in 1912 and 1313. Of the 39 games played sinca 1873 Yale has won 20 and Princeton 10 and nine have been tied. The records of the two teams and statistics of varsity and first substi tutes follow: Princeton's 1914 Record.

September 26 Princeton, 12; Rutgers, 0. October 3 Princeton, 10; Bucknell, 0. October 10 Princeton, 12; Syracuse, 7. October 17 Princeton, 16; Lafayette, 0. October 24 Frinceton, 16; Dartmouth, 12.

The contest was not well fought by either team, though, individually, each Montana man tried hard and as individuals the Bruins deserve credit. Montana's line was strong but recessary substitutions in the backfield many account for the disorganization in this department. Robertson Is Hurt Robertson was the only man injured in the contest.6 He has a bad case of water on the knee.

He was given treatment in a hospital last night. It will be several days before he is able to work again. Princeton and Yale Will Engage in Their Fortieth Annual Football Game Clash to Be in New Palmer Stadium and 40,000 People Will Attend. Princeton, N. Nov.

13. The 40th football game between the teams of Princeton and Yale will be played here tomorrow afternoon before the largest gathering that has ever witnessed a contest between these two institutions. Judging from the advance sale of seats fully 40,000 spectators will file into the new Palmer Memorial stadium will be formally dedicated by the gridiron struggle between the Elis rnd the Tigers. Dating back to 1873, this series of football games is one of the classics of tho sport, having continued uninterrupted since 1876 when football was adopted as an American' college sport. The elevens are expected to enter the game well matched, for both squads! contain a number of veterans end brilliant recruits, who have been drilled by strong coaching staffs un-ti.

they have reached the end of the season stage, developing into powerful and aggressive aggregations. Although defeated or held to a tie score game at least once by early-season opponents, the two teams are now formidable combinations, well versed in all the offensive and defensive tactics of modern football. Hinkey's Coaching. Under the coaching of Frank Hin-key, former captain and star end at "iale during the early 90s, the Elis have rounded into one of tho most versatile scoring machines of recent years. The Tigers, with Herring, "Snake" Ames and other equally famous Princeton players of past years, acting as coaches, have shown some brilliant open methods of attack this autumn.

Whether the defense, is as strong as that disclosed by Yale on several occasions is considered doubtful by the experts. In the seven games played by Yale this season the Blue was never in danger except in the Washington Jefferson contest hen the Elis met a team entirely Owsley to Vance, which netted eight yards for Montana but on which Montana lost the ball because of failure to make the necessary 10 yards in four downs; Montana was allowed three downs instead of four when the ball was half a yard from the Aggies' goal; Montana allowed five downs in the center of the field, when a series of forward passed failed to make the yardage required by the rules. TO GIVE BUTTE COACH COLTS WILL SLAM STATE CHAMPS TODAY HOW BIG CAMP FEELS MISSOULA'S SLOGAN SPELLS A VICTORY "We've Never Been Beaten in Butte," will be the slogan of the Missoula football team when it enters into the battle against the Butte high school team this afternoon. Butte has never taken the measure of any team, in any sport, that has been coached by John Mc-Gough, mentor of the Missoula scholastics. Missoula believes that it will win over the state champions today.

The outcome of the battle will go a long way toward deciding the championship among the high schools of Montana. Full of "pep" and showing a determination that pleased Coach John Mc-Gough, the Missoula high school football eleven last evening went through its last workout before going against the championship Butte high school eleven at Columbia Gardens, near Butte, today. The battle on the big camp grid-Iron this afternoon will bo one of championship caliber and if Butte expects an easy time they will be grea'- ly surprised when Coach McGough's colts open up. The eleven which will represent Missoula today is one of the best that the local high school has had in some time; the championship of the state is a thing not so far away from the grasp of the Missoula team. The eleven has a battery of plays that will baffle any team and the execu tion of the various passes and plunges is good.

The Butte team will out-weight the Missoula players, it is said, but they cannot outfight them. The Missoula team, accompanied by Coach McGough, a score of rooters, and Principal Ketcham, will leave for Butte this morning on the Milwaukee. The team will probably return to Missoula tonight. The officials of the contest will be Hock of Butte, and Nissen of Missoula, who will probably change off in the referee and umpire positions, and Elton, of Anaconda, will be headlines- Butte Ready. -Butte, Nov.

13. (Special.) What should be the best football struggle of the season is set for tomorrow after noon at Columbia Gardens when at 2:30 o'clock the Butte and Missoula elevens will clash in their first contest of the season for state championship honors. As Butte will meet no other Montana high school team this season, the result of tomorrow's game win have a large bearing on the Btate championship. Butte wound up its preparation for Missoula today with short and light practice followed by a long evening session of signal practice and a discussion of football generally and the opponents' play in detail. The team Is in good physical condition and the coaches have managed to pound into the players that they are by no means invincible.

The field gives prospects of being slippery tomorrow afternoon. There is an inch of snow on it. Weather indications, however, point to a clear and bright afternoon. The Lineup. The teams will line up as follows: Butte.

The Loyola team Is going prepared to fight a hard battle and the players feel that this game will be the hard est one of the season. Men Picked. Following are the men who Coach Higgins has selected to meet the Montana State college eleven: Ford and Rouleau, ends; Duffey and Maloney, tackles; Corrtgan and M. Maloney, guards; Currie, center; Stowe, quar terback; Higgins or Johnson and Bourgeois, halfbacks; LaChambre, fullback.

The Loyola team is" slightly crippled because of an injury to Captain Johnson. This star or the eleven will be started in the battle if possible and Higgins will be held in readiness In case Johnson cannot play throughout the contest. Coach Sees Hard Game 'We know that we are going against a hard team tomorrow," said Coach Higgins, last evening. "The Deer Lodge institution, I understand, has a day and night school and it is an eleven from the night side of the college which we are to meet. The night school Is made up of students, men largely, who work in the Milwaukee shops at Deer Lodge during the daytime.

We understand that the aggregation we are to oppose will outweigh us about 20 pounds to the man. How ever, we expect to plan an 'open game almost entirely, and we believe that this kind of football will be ef fective against the heavier eleven." "Bill" Guerin -will go with the Loyola team to serve as referee, and Walsh, Walterskirchen, Fahnlander and Stinger wiU.be substitutes for the Loyola eleven. The team expects to arrive back in Mlissoula tonight. BATTLES ABE 10 DAY ON EASTERN AND MIDDLE WESTERN GRIDIRONS, TOUGH TANGLES SCHEDULED New York, Nov. 13.

Chief interest in the eastern football schedule for tomorrow centers in the Yale-Princeton game. From an offensive standpoint Yale appears to outclass Princeton, since each team the Blue has faced this season hasi been scored upon repeatedly with the exception of the strong Washington and Jefferson eleven, which won from the Elis. 13 to 7. If 'the fighting spirit and jump can bq instilled into the eleven in the early minutes of tomorrow's contest, the' Tigers may close their season with a victory, but the Yale supporters are offering odds that this will be a football upset, not scheduled for Saturday. The Pennsylvania-Dartmouth game offers somewhat similar conditions upon which to speculate.

Dartmouth, were it) not for the de-font at the hands of Frlnccton, would today be ranked ns one of the invincible teams of the east. If Pennsylvania wins tomorrow It will be a remarkable triumph for the Quakers r.nd another of the season's startling football upsct.i. The leading games of the east tomorrow with the scores of last sea- where the mime teams met, uro as follows: Yale at Princeton, S-3. Brown at Harvard. 0-37.

Practically all the play was In the visiting team's territory and they had only one chance to score. This came as the first ended. The ball was then cn Montana's 15-yard line. Montana's First Score Montana's first score came in the i first eight minutes of play.

Robert son returned the first kick-ofi 24 yards; Sanderson took live yards through right tackle; Vance and Owsley got six yards and first down by two plays through the line; Robertson made five yards; Vance took three through left tackle; Owsley made 14 yards on a run around left end; Vance made seven yards on two plays in the line and a forward pass, Robertson to Sheridan, netted 25 yards and a touchdown. Owsley kicked goal. Score: Montana, Aggies, 0. After this score had been made Montana seemed to let up and the remainder of the quarter was a give and take affair with Montana in the Ag gies territory an tne time, ine iirsi quarter ended with the ball on the Aggies' 13-yard line In possession of the Bruins. 1 Bruins Lose Chance At the opening of the second quarter, Montana lost a chance to score after a 10-yard run by Robertson; a five-yard gain by Sanderson and a five-yard run by Robertson had placed the ball on the Aggies' one-half yard lino.

Vance lust four yards on the next play and an intercepted forward pass, on the third down, was declared a touchback and the Aggies given the ball on their 20-yard line. The Aggies could not make yardage from scrimmage and punted often during the remainder (if the quarter. Montana completed two forward passes in this quarter, one from Vance to Clarke, netting 12 yards. The Aggies attempted many passes, none of which Field Wet The game was played on a field soaked by rain and snow and the players splashed though pools of water in their, efforts to reach the goals. The footing was fairly good, however, and each team was able to play the "open'1 style of game with some success.

Aggies Poor "Sports" The battle, if such tne mix may be called, was a slow one and was featured by more arguments and more "rag-chewing" than has been seen on Montana field in many a day. The North Dakota Farmers have all missed their calling, if their actions of yesterday are an indication of their natural learning. They should be lawyers. They began to talk in practice before the game; protested each down: argued over each decision of the officials and carried on word battles among themselves. On the whole the North Dakota Aggies are poor est "sports" that the Bruins have met this season Bruins Dviorganized Montana was a disorganized eleven yesterday.

Each man tried hard enough but the efforts of the Bruins were not concerted and the team seemed to be "up in the air" throughout the greater part of the contest. Though several times within five yards of the goal line, the Bruins could lot get together long enough to put the ball over and poor generalship in directing the plays was responsible for the inability to make yardage against an inferior team. Aggie Line Good The North Dakota Aggies have a strong line from tackle to tackle but the ends were weak. 'Whether or not this had something to do with the few end runs attempted by Montana, no one can say. Some Freak Plays Friday, the 13th, may have had its effect on the players of both teams.

Freak plays were numerous through the mess and the crowd never knew what to expect next. Among the freaks of the game were: A kick by McQuillian of the Aggies, which hit the Aggies' center in the back of the neck and allowed the punter to recover the ball; a kick blocked by Owsley, which caused the ball to bounce into the arms of the Aggies' hooter; two touchbacks made on Montana, when forward passes were Intercepted behind the Aggies' goal Hue; a successful forward pass by Montana, Quality! Not Premiums Following is the detail of the Montana-North Dakota Aggie game and shows better than could columns of type the superiority of the Bruins over the visitors: Yardage from scrimmage By Montana, 385 yards; by Aggies, 63 yards. Fjrst downs By Montana, 15; by Aggies, 4. Forward passes By Montana, 15 attempted, six successful for 114 yards; by Aggies, 11 attempted, four successful for 35 yards. Penalties Montana, two offsides, 10 yards; Aggies, offside holding and interference, 28 yards.

Punts By Montana, two for 45 yards; by Aggies, 10 for 220 yards. was complete. Montana lost the ball on downs twice in this period. The half ended with the ball on Montana's 15-yard line, where it had been placed by punts. Third Period Tame In the third quarter, Montana hooted every chance to score and was held by the Aggies on downs on three different occasions.

Incomplete forward passes were the cause. The North Dakota team demonstrated on many occasions that it could not gain against the varsity. The quarter was a tame one throughout. Bruins Score Again Montana scored in the last period after having been under the Aggies' goal posts for more than five minutes. The Aggies were penalized 8 yards, half the distance to the goal, for interfering with a man about to catch a pass; an intercepted pass followed and the Aggies got credit for a touch-back and the ball was out in play on their 20-yard line.

Robertson then intercepted a 25-yard pass and returned 15 yards before he was downed. A pretty pass, Robertson to Vance, netted Montana 22 yards. Sanderson made eight yards around left end and this placed the ball within six inches of the goal line. Vance was shoved over for the touchdown. Schreck missed goal.

Score: Montana, 13; Aggies, 0. I The remainder of the quarter was all Montana's but the team could not -add to its total. The game ended with the' ball on the Aggies' three-yard dine, after a pretty pass by Vance iwas grabbed by Schreck, who was 'running down the field, 30 yards away. 'Final score: Montana, 13; Aggies, 0. The teams started the game as follows: Lineups.
