In the opening game of the season the heavy Nebraska line Hewed him up pretty well.

Then came the Michigan massacre. Grange is a remarkable football player, one of the game's greatest. He Is coached by one of the most resourceful mentors in the game, Bob Zuppke. It is a certainty that Zuppke will rack his brain for ways and means to Grange's greatness. Zuppke realizes full well that a great star like Grange can make his coach look mighty good.

Zuppke has already showed his'hand in Grange's program for the 1924 season. Last fall Grange was the offensive star. Get the ball to Grange was the big thought. He was the receiver of practicalv forward pass. Six feeWaHhnwas a fine target for the passer.

1 Last year Grange ran wide at all times. Through sheer speed, aided by interference, he tried to leave rival tacklers in his wake. This year Grange has perfected the art of passing the ball. He is very adept. Instead of running wide, Zuppke has him cutting in.

Grange is no longer a one-threat athlete but several, much to the consternation of rival teams. Week of October 20, 1924. By The Associated Press. nozeman, Oct. 25.

The whole Montana team starred In this afternoon's performance and every member of the squad that Coach 'TUck" Clark took to the Mining city w'as sent Into the game.

For the first time this season Cochran, Vnrney, Murray and 1'nwell appeared on the field in the drizzly lineup. Meagher and Dahlbeig did not play during tho game because of injuries received in the Washington game a week ago. Despite the lopsided score the game was replete with spectacular playing on the part of the Grizzly eleven. Time after time the Montana team marched down the field for a touchdown while Sweet's long punts, Kelly's brilliant open field running, Kugrue's sensational playing and Illman's line plunging furnished the great share of the thrills in today's performance. Although heavily outweighed and outclassed in every phase of the game, the Ore Diggers put up a stiff fight from the time Montana made her first counter until the end of the game.

Keck, flashy little Mines left halfback, played an excellent game, while to Wiegenstoin, right halfback, goes the credit for making the only touchdown for the Mines. Beck punted and reaching for the. ball barely touched it as it passed over his head, landing behind the goal line. Tiefore he could recover, Wlegenstein slipped behind the goal line, falling on the ball and scoring the lone touchdown for the Mines. The fleet backfield and Rteady line of the Grizzlies which worked' In clocklike precision in every play were too much for the lighter Mlnfts team and they were completely smothered in all angles of the game.

Maudlin, Shaffer, Plummer and Axtell were the bright lights In the line. Kelly Scores on Kickoff. Keljy did what the fans expected of him on the first play of the game when he caught the ball on the kickoff on the eleven yard line and sprinted through the whole Mines team for a touchdown. The Grizzly quarter never failed to return a punt less than ten yards during the time that he was In the game. He made another touchdown when he ran 35 yards around right end and eluded the Mines backs.

Sweet also came up to the expectations of the Butte fans. His sensational run for 73 yards on a criss-cross around left end was the outstanding feature of the second quarter. During the time he was in the game he aver aged 46.1 yards on his punts although he got off one for but 6 yards and an other for 23. He had a wind from the south which helped carry the ball and In the first quarter he got the pigskin away for in yards. Sweet made an other touchdown in the second half when he went through right guard for a yard and and a half to score.

He converted 9 out of 13 tries for point alter touchdown. Illman Battering Rim. Ted Illman, the Grizzly fullback, tore through the Mines line for big gains and intercepted two passes, one of whli he turned into a touchdown. The "nig Chief made five touch- dowrn. Illman backed up the line in wonderful fashion and was in on every play.

i'at Jugrue intercepted a pass on Montana's 45-yard line and eluded the backs running 55 yards for a touchdown. He handled the team in fine fashion at quarterback In the second half. He made three of Montana tomiiilowns. "Hungry'' Griffin, who went In at left ha'f when Sugrue took Kelly's phu In the second half, made three touchdowns, lie intercepted a pass on tho Mines' 20-yard line and ran for a touchdown.

Five years ago tho Saints won tho Amerlcnn Association flag, then went to the coast and lost a nine-giune series to Vernon, the latter team taking five games out of nine from St.

Paul in a desperate struggle, during; which the Saints suffered from hostile fans and players to an unusual extent. The Saints, in their series with Baltimore, lost three of five at Baltimore, one game being a tie. Then the two teams went to St. Paul, where the Saints won three of five, giving them the series, five games to four for the Orioles. 1 Seattle this fall won the pennant in the coast league after a desperate race, under the expert guidance of Wade Killifer, noted "Red-Dog" scrapper of the Pacific coast, as wily a pilot as ever handled a club in that circuit.

At times Seattle was the uuder-dog, but Killifer always brought them back close to the top and finally ended the monopoly which the California clubs have enjoyed on the flat? in the past decade. A mixture of veterans and youngsters won the pennant for Seattle. The Pitching staff included ancient veterans and lively rookies. Venn who was in the majors 15 years ntro and quit with a had arm, won 25 and lost 11 for Seattle. Weiser Dell, who-hurled for Hamilton back'' in 1911, when Eddie Hammond had his marvel nine there, did not do so well, but well enough for an old man, winning 10 and losing 14.

Jim Bagby, four years ago the star of the world champion Cleveland club, won 16 and lost 10. "Suds" Sutherland, who formerly pitched star ball for Al Lodell in Montana independent circles, won nine and dropped 13. Young Plummer, nn Oregon high school youth, won six of his 12 starts. Paul Jones, formerly of the Cubs, an erratic southpaw, won a dozen and lost as many. Fred Fussell, who also came west from Chicago, took four of the seven games he pitched.

"Left" Brandt, ex-Mullan pitcher, may also get a chance for Seattle, and Williams may nlso bo used. Behind the bat there are "Red" Baldwin, who hit .278. and Frank To-bin, who was 20 points behind him in the figures. Elmer Bowman, a huge left-handed slugger, with a .294 average, will alternate with sensational young Welch, who batted 341, at first base. Welch will hold down a garden position when not on bag Xo.

1. Cliff Brady, midget second -sacker, hit .257. Either Emmer, who hit .290, or Sammy Crane, who batted 265, may be used at shortstop. Ted Baldwin, a .302 hitter, takes care of third. "Brick" Eldred, who led the team with .348, Welch, Lane, who is still suffering from in juries sustained when he was hit by a pitched ball, but who batted .333, and Ray Robwer, leading homerun hitter, with a .319 average, will be in the outfield.

Veterans pitched the Saints to the victory over Baltimore and it is upon his experienced hurlers that Manager Nick Allen of St. Paul is relying in the series with Seattle. Joe Faeth won 15 and lost four for the Saints this year. Clyde Markle, who had a cup of coffee in the Yankee fold in mid-season, won 19 and lost but nine. Paul Fittery, ancient southpaw, who has been pitching as long as Gregg, won 16 and lost 10.

Howard Merritt, another veteran, an iron-man, too, won 19 and lost 19 for the Saints. Roettger, obtained from the Yanks in mid-season, won eight and lost four. Adolph Holtz- hauser, who won 10 and lost 14, and Jimmy McQuaid. who took seven of 16 are callow youths with little experience. Johnny Neun, first-sacker, stole 54 bases and lilt .353 for St.

Paul, Peiey Morse, second base guardian, hit .273. At third base is Charley Dressen. one of the most sought infielders in the minors, who hit .347. Koenig, a utility man, may play short, as Danny Boone, regular performer at that position, was injured at Baltimore. Koenig hit .267, Boone .259.

Berghammer, a .229 batter, is utility infielder. In the outfield St. Paul has Bruno Haas. .293 hitter, the speedy "Sea-Cap" Chrjstensen, who hit .314, Cliff Lee. obtained in mid-season from the Phillies, who slugged his way to a .284 average, Dick Wade, .291, and Joe Rig-gert, 294.

Irfo Dixon, a .272 hitter, caught nearly every game for the Saints', with Manager Xick Allen, who was formerly with the Cincinnati P.eds, as his relief man. 1 Gonzaga Whips Multnomah in Hard Struggle, 14 to 0 By The Associated Press. Spokane, Oct. 25v Gonzaga pniver-sity opened up a brilliant aerial attack: in the third period here today and defeated the Multnomah club football team of 14 to 0. The gutl stopped the third march for a touchdown in 'the final period when the Spokane eleven, had the ball on Multnomah's two-yard line.

Captain PtocKton or the BulTdoga hurled seven completed passes for a total gain of 168 yards and received a 15-yard pass for a touchdown. The teams battled on even terms in the first half. Gonzaga made consistent gains in the third and fourth periods for a touchdown in each of the (juarttrg, a lit ftatfmtiii 1 hie Three opportunities for touchdowns being lst in the first half, the Grizzly Cubs' defense cracked in the final period yesterday afternoon, Washington State scoring four times in rapid succession to pile up a 36 to 0 conquest of the' Montana freshmen. Fatal lapses in the opening minutes of the first, third and fourth quarters brought about the defeat or the Cubs, whoBe astonishing comeback after the visitors had scored nine points for a while it appear that ihey might whip the Kittens. Seorinu a touchdown in Jess than two minutes of play, the Kittens swept the Cubs before them like flotsam as the fray started.

The visitors began another march, were halted, then Meeker place-kicked a field goal. From then on the Cubs raged down the field like berserks, tearing everything before them, but Lady Luck would not smile their way. Fumble Costs Chance. A fumble by Kain lost the hall on the Washington eight-yard line and the first chance to score was gone. Again they failed by two yards of making a first down and lost the ball on the visitors' 20-ynrd line.

The final failure was the most disheartening ot all, the Cubs having the bail on the one-yard line, with a play to take it over, when the timer's gun ended the half. In the quarter the Cubs had made six first down, the Kittens none. A long pass to Meeker, who made a marvelous catch, put the Kittens In an easy way to make another touchdown in the third quarter, which ended with the count 15 to 0. Then everything went wrong and Washington State smashed through for four touchdowns in the last 12 minutes, fumbles accounting for two, a blocked punt for a third, and an intercepted pass followed by long run, the fourth. Outweighed by a tremendous margin in tho line and backfield, the Cubs waged courageous fight against a stronger team, except for the few lapses early in each half, and the final quarter.

Sam Kain's brilliant running gained huge yardage, Shultz performed almost as well Hodges got away a couple of times. The tackloR shone on the line, repeatedly blocking in the opposing ends so that Kain might get away. Fumbles, fumbles, fumbles, all fatal, hurt the Cubs' chances, so did poor passes. "Butch" Meeker, Washington State quarter, was the outstanding star of the contest, being a wonder on the offensive, while Barnhardt ami Clay were elusive runners, frequently crashing through. Exley showed well at end for the Kittens in the second half.

How hard the contest was fought, despite the onesided score, is shown by the fact that the Cubs made 12 first downs, the Kittens nine. Washington followed the ball better, recoveiing all its boots, and that is where it had a big edge. First Touchdown Scored. Meeker returned the kickoff 30 yards to start the game.

Ann Arbor, Oct. 25. Michigan whipped Wisconsin, 21 to 0, today and found a new and dazzling gridiron meteor. Just as "Red" Grange of Illinois, almost single-handed, defeated the Wolverines a week ago, Ben Friedman of Cleveland beat WiBConsir.

today. Playing his first game as a regular, Friedman scored one touchdown on a 26-yard run and mnde forward passes that accounted for the other two. But it 'was not a one-man victory that Michigan won.

The first play of the day, In which Grange caught the Michigan kickoff and ran 90 yards for a touchdown, changed the entire complexion of the Illinois-Wolverine fray. It is unusual for a player to turn such a trick in a big game. And no play is quite so depressing to a rival team as to have some player on the first play of the game run the length of the field for a touchdown.

Grange's remarkable run unques tionably raised havoc with the Michigan eleven. It tended to make the Ann Arbor eleven look ridiculous. Every player; on the field, every substitute on the bench realized it. The memory of that run haunted the players throughout the rest of the game. It will stick with them for years.

That brilliant run was the decisive break. It gave Illinois much confidence. It robbed of an even greater amount. No doubt that run caused every member of the Michigan team to think more of Grange than any other thing on the gridiron. To them Grange was a constant threat.

The psychology of that first run was apparent throughout the rest of the game. For that reason Michigan did not play as well as it is capable of. Incidentally the success of Grange in the Michigan game "is going to El Fumbles With Ball on Cali-fornians' Foot Line; Score Is 3 to 0. By The Associated press. Portland, Oct.

The first three periods were scoreless, with Idaho having the ball in its possession most of the time. In the last quarter Idaho took the ball on a punt. Skippy Stivers attempted a punt from within his own 20-yard line "hut was blocked, who substituted at.

fullback for P.ogue, recovering for Stanford. Stanford thrust at the line of the Gem Staters three times and then Cu.ldebaek kicked an easy placement goal from the lS-yard line. Idaho played a wide open game from start to finitli and frequently had the within striking distance, only to lose it on an attempted place kick. In the very first period a long pass, Stivers to Cameron, came within a rabbit's stride of netting a touchdown. Cameron caught the ball on Stanford's 40-yard line and dashed for the goal with a clear field in front of him.

Cuddebark ran Cameron down from behind and threw him on the five-yard line. Idaho failed to punch the ball over in four tries. Later in the game another brilliant aerial drive with Cameron and Stivers in the throwing roles put the leather again inside of the Stanford five-yard line. Bucklin took it to the one-foot mark and with three downs to make it, Idaho fumbled on the next play and lost a chance for vtctory. Cleve.

land punted out from behind his own goal line and Stanford Was never in close quarter. thereafter.
