If their overwhelming defeat of Purdue by a score of 39 to 0 in the opening contest of the season at Marshall field yesterday is a fair basis for forming opinions. Coath Stages men had mastered the new style of gridiron, work.

demanded by the revised rules. en well in three weeks time that they played the old gold and black men off their feet from start to finish. although Coach Witham had act nearly two weeks longer for drilling his team than had Coach Stagg. Scoring a touchdown himself in five minutes, Capt. Eckersall kept his fast maroon.

back field on the jump, reeling off play after play with a speed and comparative certainty which fairly baffled his opponents. Before the first half was finished the Midway teazn had piled up a total of twenty-two points. while the Indianans had come nowhere near scoring. Scrub Team Finishes Game. In the second half Coach Stagg left.

in the game only long enough to permit him to make. one of his famous snakelike runs through a broken field for more, than half the length of the field for a touchdown. then retired him. along with several other regulars. and finished the match with a scrub team.

Despite thid, fact. however. Chicago scored seventeen mines in the Pecend half and protected its goat successfully. New Game an Improvement. Spectators.

officials. and players all pronounced the new style of game a. great improvement on the old, if the initial contest is a fair exemplification of what is to come. Despite the onesidedness of the score the battle was interesting at silk times and exciting. Long runs of the kind which bring the rooters to their feet.

daehing and daring trick plays, involving repeated paestrg of the ball. and the wide openness of the play practically all the time, kept the crowd of 7,000 or 8.000 enthusiasts keyed up to the highest pitch of Instead of the slowly hammering, monotonous attack they had been accustomed to watching. there was a constant shifting of the scene of action back and forth across the tied. the ball or the man carrying it always being in plain sight. so that even the most intricate plays easily were followed.

Add to this the great uncertainties consequent upon so much open field work, the risks attendtrg so much handling of the ball. the constant danger of an opponent butting into a play and securing the pigskin with nothing to prevent a touchdown and even the onesidednese of thecount could not take all of the interest out of the contest Always Chance to Store. While Purdue never seriously threatened Chicago's goal in the old sense of the werd. the Indiana players always had the chance to More right up to the final whistle if a lucky break gave one of the chances which came to the maroons more than once. The high value of speed as opposed to mere beef and strength was demonstrated clearly.

The maroons. although outweighed three pounds to a 'man on the average, had no ticulty in playing rings around their opponents. Old fashioned plunging football was Ineffectual to gain the necessary ten yards and was used by eitherteam only to vat the plays. In open field work the maroors easily excelled. Steffen.

Iddings. Eckersall. and Finger. found no difficulty in skirting Purdue's ends. which appeared to be the weakest spot in the makeup of the visitors.

The fact that seven times the maroon backs or linemen broke away for runs of twenty- five yards or more. and that five times they covered half the length of the field or more In one dash. Indicates something of the speed Stagg's team had developed as well as the thrilling nature of the game. Brilliant feats were so frequent that feats which would have been features a year ago were almost accepted as matters of course. epn: -esterday Is a season at Marshall field 3 intone.

In the second Michigan did some old tiros rushing for a while. but found a crimson and gray stone wall before getting tthin thirty-five yards of the Buckeye goal.

Two Wolverines Off Form. The reason for the inefficacy of the Michigan attack lay in the fact that Steckle and Isroffin were not in the best of shape.

There was an elevation of the eyebrows and a semi-suppressed titter around the board when the Purdue football players produced their Own water flasks at the purity banquet which prefaced the sterilized football game at the Chicago university yesterday. This was unkind. The Indiana athletes meant no attempt at the subornation of a breach of hospitality. They did not intend tq convey the impression that they suspected that there existed a frame up to poison them. They had no desire to throw a monkey wrench into the ethical machinery of the Midway.

They knew their prospective opponents, would not do a thing to them except in a fair fight. They had no reflections to cast upon Chicago water except to say Inferentially: It goes for you." As the Louisianian carries his drip coffee pot whithersoever he goes; as the Kentuckian insists In taking his own demijohn; as the Kansas Cityan goes, on no excursion without a supply of the ecru fluid of the Kase: as the English tourist comes with his own bath tub. the Lafayette athlete has a right to carry his own fire extinguisher. Therefore. we claim that the official caterer of the Chicago university was wrong in chkrging him corkage.

He might as well have searched hie pale gray telescope and confiscated the cold chicken, the paw paw preserves. and the Jell which were packed with his toothbrush.

the first time in EIX years the, Nebraska football eleven was today ed on its own grounds. Ames Agricultural college of Iowa did the trick and did it with neatness and dispatch. The final score was 14 to safety saving the locals a shut out. The victory of the visiting collegians was deserved. They outplayed the Nebraskans at every stage.

gave possibly in punting. They showed more familiarity with the new rules than did Nebraska. For twenty minutes during the first half the local eleven held their own, and perhaps a shade better. After that, with but a single exception in the second half. Fosters men were on the defensive.

It was a rough game. without seeming brutality and the- few bursts of brilliancy were on, Nebraska's side, Johnson. Denslow. Wilkie. and.

Little shining. it came to steady, ground gaining team work Ames was tar Little Jeanson. for the Iowa farmers, surpassed Cook in tactics and generalship and his place kicking was as pretty en exhibition, as has ever been seen on Nebraska field. Right behind him were Jones and Rephert. always equal to the task in an emergency as Nebraska showed a trifle more speed in the few end runs that were made, but its interference was slow and.

weak, while that of Ames was splendid. Three times the forward pass was tried by the Iowans. each time successfully, once netting them thirtyyards. Nebraska tried the same play twice, the first time without gain. On the second attempt Cook threw the ball high and slow.

It fell right into the arms 4)t McElhinny and the Ames man sprinted forty yards, without interference for the only touchdown -of the game. A safety saved Nebraska from being shut out. Lineup: Nebraska 01- Ames 1141. R. E.

azd Stagg's back field showed itself infinitely superior to Next to Eckereall. Steffen was the star of the day, and his slippery method of Eliding around. through, over and under opposing tacklers for repeated long gains around the ends marks Lim ae a worthy successor of the maroon captain. For a tines after Eckersall left the game Steffen did the punting and kicked as coolly and surely as his chief, once booting the ball out from the shadow of his own goal posts when a blocked punt probably would have let Purdue score. Finger, Iddings, and Walker shared with the two Walters in the long runs made, while Parry and Noll were hcsts themselves in following and pouneing en the ball or opposing runner.

Maroons Fumble Many Times. The game was fua of fumbling and penalties. both teams suffering from the former fault. while the maroons were the greatest offenders against the new rules because of their unfamiliarity with their workings and because they bad the ball in their possession the greater part of the time. But Stagg's men played a surer.

less hazardous game than did Purdue. The maroon offense coesisted largely of more or less complicated plays alined. to skirt the opposing ends. and for this purpose double and triple passes were used, with an cccaelonal delayed pass or a. shot through the line.

after the Purdue defense had been tricked into following split interference. Eckersall used a long pass trequently either to one side or to the rear, giving the back who was to carry the ball a long start toward the end of the line before it was disclosed which man was to take the ball. But the long forward pass was tabooed by the maroons. Fora-rw d-11aEi-of Uncertain Value. Purdue.

on the other hand, resorted: to the long forward pass repeatedly, either from licedson to one of the end: rushers or frem Fleming after a fake kick fcrmation. The hazards of this play were shown quickly. Although Purdue scored. most of its gales by successful forward passing. and the play was a beauty when it connected, it proved Expensive twice and once resulted in a maroon touchdown.

That was when Finger behind his own line. jumped into a pees by Holdson which was intended for Deboos. caught the ball, and (lathed through the broken lines for a sixty-five )eret run and. touchdown. Again, in the second half.

Iddings got the ball after ore of these long paeses had been rumbled and made twenty. yards before he VAS pulled down. Punts Quickly The quarter back kick was worked trice by Purdue with fire success. but the new onside rule regarding punts did not get a chance to show how it would work. None of the punts.

except those which went out of bounds, was allowed to the ground before being caught or muffed. But enough was shown to prove the rew game puts a high premium on clean punting and catching' of punts. Once Eckersall kicked a low punt with apparent intent, which was partially blocked. allowing Parry to get It. The maroon captain made two attempts at held goals from drop kicks.

both of which were blocked by Purdue men. Fleming made ens Baseball was so pervasive last week that its leaking into the pulpit was inevitable. Many eminent divines declared that they would lend their approval to the game if it were stripped of this abuses which those who have supported It most liberally have never detected.

In the battle of the boots between Messmer and Comney the latter had a decided advantage until three minutes before the call of time. when the Wisconsin kicker placed the ball squarely between the Dakota posts on a drop kick from the thirty-five yard line. A touchdown by Soukup after a run of thirty-five yards. a goal after the kick by Messmt.r, and a field goal by the same man tell the tale. Mark Catlin.
