Their kicking and passing was good but their line could not stand against the onslaught of Honaker's backfield for today the dope was upset when the Highlanders backfield outshone the line by a wide margin. Hamilton entered the backfield during the fray and distinguished himself in kicking and passing. Mc-Murray, Gamble, Franke, McCall performed creditably.

Among the visitors Captain Turner's playing was the outstanding feature especially on defence. The first quarter resulted In three touchdowns for the Highlands, the third quarter netted two but the second and fourth periods the Harrogate eleven tightened and hald Mary-ville scoreless.

Tulane's football machine, recovering from the shock and surprise of a touch down which Mississippi college scored in the first four minutes play today came back with one of the most vicious attacks anv Green back eleven ever has shown and smothered the Chocktaws beneath a 32 to 7 score. While Tulane's most effective offense was a battering wedge whose aoex was kept open by Paler-no, Phillips and Levy and through which hole Flournoy plunged to gain after every other kind of attack showed dash and strength. While the Choctaws started off as if Cy Parks was going to show them how to play the greenbacks off their feet they were fighting desperately after the first period while during the last half they hardly touched the ball except, on kickoffs after the scoring of touchdowns.

One is that he is a oneway runner. He is at his best only when moving to his right in an open field. So one cry will be to "turn" him. His friends admit he is a oneway" runner. That way is toward the other fellow's goal and he cares little which side of the field he "works" in getting there.

They point out that one doesn't pay Coach Zuppke a very pretty compliment in suggesting that he hasn't corected such a weakness, if one did exist. Whatever the situation may be Grange will be the big drawing card with the Illini agaVn and his playing will be watched with criti-'al eyes. The earnest efforts of the other Big Ten teams to stop him will make his work the more inter- Jesting, whatever the result othe cry ample proof that it was ready to accept the situation. Tomorrow, the clubs will go into the second stage of their battle, which, on the basis of rival strength today, looms as likely to go to the limit before a decision is reached. Washington is expected the South paw star, Zachary, to the mound in an effort to even the series while McGraw having scored with his ace today, was planning to rely on his veteran, righthander, Hugh McQuillan.

MOTORS Stop Red "Stop Granger "Stop Grange!" "STOP GRANGE!" That cry is already reverberating about the stadium walls of the big ten colleges as the Western Conference grid teams whipped Into Shape. "Red" Grange is the man whose brilliant open field running, plunging and open work in the forward pass play carried Illinois through the season without a defeat. In the seven games that Illinois played Grange gained an average of practically five yards a minute. He scored 12 touchdowns, more than any other halfback in the Big Ten. He scored at least one touchdown against every team played.

But this year may tell another story. For the simple reason that the coaches of every team on Illinois' list this fall are building their defenses with the idea of stopping Grange. They spent a season studying the fleet-footed redhead. They sought his weaknesses or possible They watched the defenses ones CONTINUATION WALTER JOHNSON, NATS' IDOL, LOSES TO THE GIANTS (Continued From Page One) had come, McGraw called on his reserves and sent Jack' Bentley to bat for Lindstrom, young third baseman. The strategy succeeded when Bentley walked, filling the bases, and Southworth ran for him.

Momentarily the rally was checked when Frisch hit to Harris and Gowdy was forced out at the plate, but Toung, who had struck out previously three times, came through with a short single to center ajid Nehf crossed the plate. Kelly brought in Southworth with what proved the winning run when he lifted a sacrifice fly to Goslin. Terry filled the bases again with an infield single, but Johnson forced Wilson to fly out and end the rally. JohnSon was withdrawn in favor of a pinch hitter, Shirley, as the Senators went to bat for the last time. It was a last ditch stand and the crowd was thrown into another frenzy when Jackson dropped Shirley's high fly, and the runner reached second.

MeNeery flew out but Harris, Washington's battling manager, punched a single to center that Bent Shirley over the plate. Rice followed witn sharp drive to left center and Harris raced to third but Rice, trying to stretch his hit was thrown out at second Senators Drop Chance This mis-directed Diece of strategy cost the Senators a chance to tie the score, for it was the second out and Harris chances of scoring; the tying run were blastcl when Goslin was thrown out in a fine ston and throw by Kelly, called into the infield in the closing inning. Had Rice been held to a single. Harris probably would have been able to score on Goslin 'a blow, which came within inches of being a safe hit. This break in their last rally was typical of the opportunities lost by the Senators at several stages of the game.

Nehf's wildness in tty early part of the game threatened several times to cause him trouble but with men on base the Senators could not produce a decisive punch, making but one safe hit. a sinale-by Judge, In the first five innings off Nohf's deceptive shoots. McNeely. doubling to start the sixth, brought the Senators' first run across on successive infield outs, but in the seventh and eighth innings, three men were left on the paths. 1-1 A Though he was hard yielding a total of 14 safe hits against an allowance ten by Nehf.

Johnson was master of the situation until the twelfth. Often he had the heaviest guns of the Giants attack swinging wildly at his fast ball. He struck out men In eight, of the first eleven Innings, including-. Toung and Wilson three times, apiece but it seemed the irony of fate that Keely and Terry lunging wildly, should -connect for the home runs that started the Giants towards victory. In the fourth, when Terry got circuit blow, the- onlY other three-men to face Johnson struck out.

The tension that has surrounded the world the attempted bribery that brought about the imnish- ment or Conneil and and-f set the match to a new baseball conflagration, bad. cast its shadow over today's games but in the heat of playing conflict, it seemed Jost.
