i.n A courageous band of West Virginia Wesleyan gridders, crippled by the loss of six regulars, put up a great defensive battle to hold the Navy to a scoreless tie in their 10th meeting. Playing the same team from start to finish, the Bobcats smeared every thrust at their goal line. A great part of the Wesleyan stand was due to Hall's brilliant punting. He consistently kicked fifty to sixty yards thruout the afternoon, and of his boots was good for eighty-four yards. Proceeds of the game went to charity.

SANSEN LEADS IOWA TO 7-0 VICIORY OVER RGEWASOINGTON UL BY BEN REHMAR. Lincoln high uncorked reverse pi lys and a flock of lateral passes Saturday to gain an to 0 victory over (Jrand Island on the Red and Black oval. The Capital City crew wa .4 dangerous all afternoon but was unable to register until late in the third period. A safety by Acting Captain Peter-ion of (Jrand Island and a lateral paas, Williams to Baldwin after the free kick paved the way for Lincoln's fourth triumph of the season. The Capital City gridders passed up two scoring opportunities in the aecpnd period.

An Incomplete pass on the last down blotted the first chance and a fumble choked the second rally In this quarter. Another fumble deep in Grand Island territory stopped a Lincoln threat In the third prior to the safety. Cn an exchange of punts at the start of the second canto, Lincoln gained thirteen yards and started a drive from the Grand Island 34 byard line that carried the Bailer warriors to Third City 9-yard mark where they lost the pigskin. Scoring Threat Stopped. A forward pass by Williams to Kulper who tossed a lateral to Baldwin picked up eight yards on the first play.

Williams went thru tackle for a first down and caught a flip from Baldwin to set the sphere on the Grand Lsland 19- yard line. On three plays, Williams and Kulper added twelve yards and then a forward, Williams to North and a lateral to Kulper was incomplete to end the threat. luiter In the quarter, Peterson, lainstay of the Grand Island ven got off a short kick which rolled out of bounds on his own 44-yard line. This set up the pins for another Lincoln threat. The combination of Williams to Kulper to Baldwin pulled another one of its favorites to gain eleven yards.

Kulper hit the line for three and tbcn on a triple pa.ss behind the line he broke loose for fifteen yards. Another forward and lateral with Baldwin carrying the ball advanced the Red and Black ten yards closer to the enemy goal line. fumbled after being tackled, however, and the Mandery crew recovered behind the goal nnil from its 20-yard line. In the third canto Williams intercepted an opponent pass and raceil back to the Third City 28- yartl line. On a series of plays which included a flip from Will- lain.s to Kulper, the Lincoln grid- clera carried the ball to the 9-yard mark.

Ray Baldwin Scores Only Only Hawkeye Touchdown of Season Results in First Victory. HICKMAN CROSSES GOAL IOWA CITY, la. The University of Iowa's scoreless team turned its first touchdown of the season into its initial victory Saturday, defeating I the Colonials of George Washington univer-sitv.

7 to 0, by a marker In the second period. Altho Iowa outplayed its eastern rivals in every department except passing, the Old only demonstration of scoring ability came after Captain Sansen had paved the way in the middle of the second quarter. The Hawkeye captain crashed thru the center of the line for nineteen yards to set the scoring machine in motion. He was downed by Fenlon on the 19-yard line. He went thru the same hole again to the 9-yard line on the next play, after which Hickman, Hawkeye left halfback, took up the scoring responsibilities, punching the Colonial line for the nine yards In two drives.

Captain Sansen added the extra point with a place kick. Except in passing, by which George Washington gained eighty- five yards, the visitors proved impotent. Captain Sansen, besides providing the punch that took the Hawk- eyes to the goal line for the first time in five games, was outstanding defensively, figuring in numerous tackles behind the line. accurate passing was a constant threat to scanty lead with Chambers on the receiving end of several tosses. A crowd of 10,000 persons, half of them boy scouts, witnessed the contest.

MINNEAPOLIS. Minn. Minnesota triumphed over a desperately fighting Wisconsin team, 34 to 0. Saturday. Minnesota did all its scoring in the first salf, a touchdowTi and goal in each period.

After that Minnesota was fighting to defend its lead as Wiscon- ain passes flew down the field only to fail or be intercepted. Minnesota's first score came from a brilliant piece of work by Manders who reveriied right end, got away from Wisconsin tacklers and raced 52 yards for the touchdown. He also kicked the goal. The second score was also spectacular. Munn who had starred during the entire game was largely responsible for it.

A Wisconsin kick was blocked and Manders liled the haill. On the Badger kyard line. Three short gains 'followed. Then tossed to Robinson who snapped a lateral pass to Munn who shook off three tacklers and got away for a twenty-five yard dash and the touchdown. Manders kicked goal to Win 7 to 0, GOLDEN, Ctolo.

Kearuey once had the ball on the Mines 9-yard line, first down, but Daggett intercepted a pass and returned it twenty-five yards out of the danger zone.

In the last period both teams opened up with one forward pass after another. Schnarrs, Mines fullback, played three periods wdth a broken hand before he was removed late In the final quarter.

Saturday they held the West Virginians well away from their goal line, excepting in the final quarter, while Captain Henry toe was accounting for two field goals and two touchdowns were pushed over. The Kansans got their initial field goal in the first quarter and the other In the second. They counted their first touchdown in the third period after recovering a West Virginia fumble on West 33-yard line. Green Goes Over. A twenty-five yard pass, Auker to Breen, substitute at quarterback, put the Aggies in scoring position and Breen stepped off the remaining eight yards to the goal.

In the final quarter, the Aggies drove seventy-two yards down the field in a slashing attack with Auker and Graham carrying the ball. Graham pounded thru from the 20-yard line, carrying the ball five consecutive ticrtes to score. West Virginia had as many first downs eleven-as the Kan.sasns.

hut the conclusion is unescapabie that the football public in Missouri does not deserve winning teams at its stale university. The four surcesslve defeats su.stained by the Tigers prior to their desperate bid for victory Saturday had so cooled the 1 interest in Coach Gwinn fine team that the crowd at Memorial stadium Saturday afternoon numbered less than four thousand paid admissions.

Still another ceremony between the halves of the game in evidence when student representa- tivs of the two institutions carried on the field the Tiger-Husker bell, symbolic of the fine rivalry and good feeling existing between the two institutions during the years that Nebraska and Missouri teams have been contesting on the gridiron. The Tiger-Husker bell, presented by the Delta Tau Delta and Phi Delta Theta fraternities of Nebraska, was first tossed into competition in 1927, when Missouri was the winner by the scant margin of 7 to 6.

Nebraska recaptured the bell in 1928 and since has retained it by virtue of the two aeadiocks with Missouri in 1929 and 1930. 10-7 victory will enable the Husker in stiLution to keep the trophy another year. Have Son. Head Coach D. X.
