GeO. SOCIETY SEES THE SOITH SIDE GAME Contest on Marshall Field Is the Lead-Ins; Social FssFtloa of the Day. An enthusiastic, crowd of Chicago rooters filled the Immense grand stand on the east side of ths field. The college boys gathered In the north end of the stand and yelled continuously for their team. The crowd In tbe weal stand also made muca noise, but their cheers did not peal across the field like the well-timed college yell of the Chicago rooters In tha grand stand.

The boys cheered whenever an Inch of ground was gained by the maroon team; they cheered each clever play, and In the second half, when the Chicago team was placed on the defensive, the yells continued to peal forth to Inspire tbe stocky players In Chicago's line. Tbe west stand was the Brown side of the field.

The Brown players were not lacking for applause, however, whenever a good play was made.

Tbe Chicago rooters showed true appreciation tor tbe sport by cheering all the good plays made by Hrown as welt as by their own team, and when Brown scored a teuchdowa In ths second halt tbe cheering was almost as deafening as when Chicago made tbe first score. The Chicago "co-eds" were nearly as conspicuous as tbo male students In rooting for tbe team. They were out in force, with large bows of mar eon ribbon dangling from their umbrellas and barytone tin horns, with which to express their enthusiasm. A brass band occupied a prominent position back of the grand stand boxes, and played at all opportunities. Evtu the people In the boxes often Joined In the college yell.

Michigan, aid Illinois Scrap Over (iamri with Chlcasro. There Is no lit.le feeling between the Universities of Michigan and Wisconsin as to the outcome of tbe agreement entered Into by Wisconsin with the University of Chicago for football gain a for the next three years, and a game this cunlh at Madison. Tbe first outburst took place at tbe conference held at the Auditorium hotel last Weduesday night, which was participated In by President Adams of Wisconsin, President Do per of Illinois, President Harper of Chicago, and Professor Pattengiii. representing Michigan. The meeting waa a stormy one.

of which the president of Wisconsin was made tbe storm center. It being alleged that Wisconsin bad broken faith with Michigan and Illinois when tbs contract with ChK-ago was signed. The gist of the present misunderstanding between tbe members of the recent coalition against Chicago seems to lie in a varied Interpretation of the so-called presidents' agreement, entered into by the heads of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Illinois at tbs beginning of the trouble with Chicago. Michigan men urge that the Wolverine college has refused several tempting offers from Chicago because her collesgues, Wisconsin and Illinois, have not been made a party to the deal. Such a position must ultimately have proved untenable, as Chicago has all along refused to treat with tbe allies Jointly.

President Adams' Interpretation of ths agreement was that If any ons of the allied colleges could get terms with Chicago which were deemed satisfactory, and which Chicago would guarantee would be extended to the other two parties of the agreement, tbo president's contract was at an end and all parties were free to enter Into contract with Chicago. This statement, Michigan and Illinois allege. Is in opposition to tha spirit and letter of the agreement-Still another point which calls forth an awful howl is the fact tbst Chicago and Wisconsin arranged the date without tho conference of tha allied forces. Had tho matter been first discussed In conference, it Is possible that soma amicable ground might have been agreed noon for a resumption of relations with Chicago by all three colleges. Ths premature contract, however, will doubtless be mad a bona tor contention between Wisconsin and Michigan aad Illinois for some tuns to come.

There was also a managers' agreement made last spring to which Balrd of Michigan, Huff of Illinois, and Fisher of Wisconsin were ths parties. Whether this agreement wsa ever presented their respective sthletlo boards Is a question, and It is even doubtful whether the student snd graduate managers ever revealed even Its contents. Professor Thatcher of the Chicago athletlo board discussed the new contract with Wiscon sin last night. Said he: "Personally, I con sider tbe Wisconsin games as fixtures and sny backsliding now would result In the bresking or the sgreement. Chlcsgo and Wisconsin hsve proven themselves the two strongest Western teams and they should get together.

The game at Madison, on Dec. 9, will be the game of tbe year, and I will be numbered among tbe spectators. I would not miss that game under any consideration DEFEATS AKBRASKA. Iowa Eleven Manae.es to Skat Oat Its Hlvnl. Special Dispatch to The Inter Ocean.

(Continued from First Page.) bis Neli Snow of Michigan team coming: up the field like a runaway automobile, and knew bo was witbiny kicking distance of goal. So ho made a -fair catr-n." heeling the spot as the ball touched his fingers.

Snow tried to stop hta forward rush, and but barely bumped Into O'Dea, but the umpire declared it a foul, and carried the ball up to tbe Jntcnlgan twenty-five yard line, where he gave It to O'Dew to kick. The chance was an easy one, and O'Dea dropped a beautiful goal, tho ball sailing far Into the stands behind tbe Michigan posta- This first score hod such an element of lack with it that tha Michigan team felt nowise discouraged. It kicked otT In good shape, and. catching tbe punt that O'lJea sent back on the first down, proceeded to work toward the Badger goal by short plunges through the line and masses oa tackle. Twice Michigan lost tbo ball on fumbles, and had to take Its medicine la tLo shape of kicks from O'Dea, but the gain was steady toward the Michigan goal.

Then came the deluge. Getting the ball on its fifty-yard line. Wisconsin signaled a kick. O'Dea waited lor a heavy puff of wind, and then sent the ball high in tbe air. It sailed along in beautiful spirals to Michigan's fifteen-yard line.

There it struck tbe ground, and took a sudden shoot past tbe full back's outstretched arms. He touched. It, bnt did not stop It, and the bail rolled over the goal line. "Eddie" Cocbema, the brother to the famous Heury Cochems of Wisconsin athletics, came sprinting down tbe Held, and made a wild dive after tbe balk-' Two Michigan players were quick, and tbe three rolled In a heap over the slippery object When the referee came up he gave the ball to Cochems. and declared a touchdown for Wisconsin.

O'Dea kicked a moat difficult goal, and the score stood 11 to 0 in favor of Wisconsin. The half ended almost Immediately. tflchlsraat MasTa anal Fwaeblca. With the second 'half and O'Dea's retirement, matters looked blighter for Michigan. There was considerable open play all over the field.

In which Michigan lost by muffs and fumbles as much as she gained by carrying the 'ball. Then Wisconsin took a band at line bucking. Steadily, yard by yard, the doughty little Larson and his slippery partner Driver, squirmed the ball ahead until tbe Mlohigaa goal line was reached and crossed. The goal was kicked and the score stood at the overwhelming figures of 17 to 0. The rooters tn tho Wisconsin-sections had stopped their combined din, and had taken to scattered sarcastic remarks.

A man with a olee like cuckoo clock monotonously chanted "Easy VEmy!" "Easy!" Stray Individual asked the atalce and blue bleachers where was Snow, and what was the matter with the great Cunningham. "What's happened to McLean several others inquired. Michigan then, had tbe bail at the center of tbe field. In the Michigan stands the wonder and disgust that McLean had not been given tbe ball more often bad been succeeded by a dull resignation. Then suddenly McLean was given the ball for one of his famous end a -t it Any one who had tjaea a strong, badly frightened woodcock rtso a few Inches Hi front of an eager spaniel's aoeeand then go whirling away through a dense thicket, pursued by two cbarges of No.

Dodging a man here, warding off one there, turning and twisting In Jags and spirals and Jumps, and always looking tor the most thinly peopled part of tbe field, he worked his way around the Wisconsin end and straightened out for the goal. The whole Wisconsin team was in pursuit, and the fleetest men of tie Badger college ran their swiftest. But the champion hurdle racer was taster than alL Outstripping both friends and foes, he crossed the goal line and landed the ball near the posts for a tuchdown. On tbs Instant over 20,000 people, ordinarily peaceable and passing as of sound mind, became bowling, dancing lunatics, forgetting the one-sided score and their collegiate sympathies In tbelr delight at the splendid performance).

This was the last Incident of tbe game. As the great crowd filed out of the exits the Michigan, supporters put their colors and flags In their pockets and said to each other: "It only they bad used McLaln more." STORY OP THE GAME.

ids aasl Boxes Filled with Wcll-Drcsard Mca aad Wssirs. Two baseball rooters struggled through the mob. "Say," said one. "talk about your Fourth of July games; they haven't got this beat much." It waa certainly a tremendous crowd that fought its way Into the West Side ball park to witness the Wisconsin-Michigan football game. So slowly did ths masses filter through the turnslles that when the game started at 11:30 o'clock there seemed almost as many people out side the ground as Inside.

The gates were finally abut and those who were unfortunate enough to ne a Uttle late were forced to go borne and eat dinners unfiavored with tbe spire of the great Thanksgiving game. There were. It is estimated, nearly li.or) men and women In tbe grand aland and tbe bleachers. Along Ibe front of tbe former there was a narrow fringe of people sitting just behind the rail which bore the yellow and blue ot Michigan. In tbe aisles between the sections of bleachers there re solid masses of humanity, livery window that bore upon the field in fje surrounding houses was filled with faces, and the private grand stands on tbe roofs, which have been the cause of so much annoyance to the owners of tbe Chicago ball tram, were packed to tbe last seat.

During tbe hour preceding the opening of the game the vicinity of the ball park waa a sight. Down all tbe streets men and women in smart clothes, msny of them flaunting tbe colors of their favorite college, marched toward the gates. In tbe vacant space of ground immediately north of the high fence, lines of people from 100 to yards tn length moved like some huge, sluggish, writhing snake towsrd the entrances snd the ticket offices. Along Lincoln street handsome equipages drew up and deposited their loads before the main gate. More than a score of carriages were standing In the street when tha game closed.

It was a day for the display of one's btst clothes. Two-thirds of the women wore tailor-made stormy-weather costumes sad tbe men were noticeable largely for their new overcoats and hats. The boxes slong the front of the grand stand wars filled to the limit with the fashionable folk of tho town who love athletics. Ths colors of the contending teams were about equally dts-playtd here, though in the bleachers the blue of the Wolverine state adherents was almost lost sight of In tbe forests of Oaring red waved by tbe followers of the Wisconsin institution of learning. Tbe Wisconsin yell, too, echoed and re-eoboed over the field, and the university band, placed along the first-bass bleachers, played "There'll Be a Hot Time" at tfares-mlnute intervals.

Karney. and Professor Effinger. It was an ordvrly crowd, the great number ot nmen acting as a restraining Influence on the cf the rooters. At one point, ia ths between the first base bleachers, the crowd) packed tn so dVnerly that it was almost impossible to move a hand. At the farther end of the rasageway was a gate, leading to the field.

This gate was locked and when those at tbe tar end of the aisle found they could not see the play they decided to batter down the obstruction. Some one thoutr-d to smseh down tbe gate aad there was a trernendvus surging forward. Those st the gate brartd themselves, thebsrs held, and tbe effort was futile, but there were many sore ribs from the attempt. The game seemed so surely Wisconsin's almost from the kick-off thst there wss little chance for banter among the spectators. The Michigan followers bad IllUe to say except on the two or three orraons when their team bucked the red back for a few yards.

The women did hardly tttir share ol the applauding. The game was rot of tbe sort to arouse their enthusiasm. The stubborn, battering battle had not enough rf the spectacular In tt to draw forth thtlr favor. Tbey carried their cclors conspicuously and their erccrts were forced to be content with that (loclanatl. 22 Ohio AVeaIeyaa.fi.
