Lewis CLEANER and DYER Yesterday's footbll scores showed two outstanding tendencies. Most prominent vvre the tie scores, there being seven important games that ended with neither team with an advantage as far as the scoreboard would indicate. Most prominent of these games were the two conference upsets, the tieing of Minnesota by Indiana, and the Illinois-Ames tie. Both Indiana and Ames considered themselves entitled to moral victories, despite the tie count. Another tie score of interest to Davenport-ers was that of Duquesne and Bethany, vybo finished at 7 all.

Duquesne is coached by ner Layden, one of Davenport's greatest football players There were thiee high scores worthy of note. St. Xavier leads the list with 132 points against Lee college. Trinity College of Sioux City, sprinted to 103 points against Dana college. Maine sunk Ft.

A neat pass, Yeager to Lanerean, for 30 yards resulted in the touchdown for the Irish. Yaeger made the kick that knotted tho count.

St. Joseph's threatened to score on two other occasions. The gun put a stop to their hopes on the four-yard line at halt time, and a fumble on the 15-yard mark vajor-Ized their other "chance."

Coach Jesse Day's Red and Blue machine failed to function well in the first half of the battle with Galesburg high, but when the final -whistle had been sounded, 'the visitors were smothering under a 26 to 6 score. It was a complete triumph. It was a slashing, tearing attack which was presented by the visltois in the lirst half, and a colored by the name of.

Winibly, who pass, kick and run with the best of them, directed the Gales-, burg team so well in the first halt that only the occurrence of two sad breaks prevented them from running up a score on Davenport's The scare which the Illinois team threw Into the Red and Blue camp was spent In the first half and it dissipated slow ly in the Cinal two quarters. While it lasted, it kept the Davenport players on the jump, and it they were not up on their toes early in the game, the jesult of the contest might have been a different story. Passes Work Well. Galesburg received the klckoft and was downed on their 20-yard line. Aided greatly by the superb running of Winibly, they advanced the oval steadily up the field by consistent football until they had reached Davenport's 30 yard line.

Unable to gain farther, Wimbly stepped back to punt, and Foster, Day's giant tackle, rushel thru and blocked the kick Tha-ball rolled back to Galesburg's 32-yard line, where it went to Davenport on downs. Two passes, Tofanelli to Balzer and Tofanelli to Dahl, and a prettily executed end run by Tofanelli accounted for Davenport's first touchdown. Just before the CIrst quarter ended. Galesburg started its goalward march. It was Wimbly this and Wimbly that, either running or passing, until the ball was deep in Davenport territory.

The colored boy gained 33 yards along the ground and then passed to Olson, who brought the oval to the 1-yard line. "Wimbly sneaked over the for a touchdown. The Davenport line was responsible for the second touchdown after Galesburg had made a steady advanco down the field on passes, defense against which was slightly off color In the Davenport team. "Wimbly was making one of his characteristic runs around left end on Davenport's 38-yard lino when he fumbled, and Dahl, the Red and Rlue end. who played stellar ball thruout the contest, snatched up the ball and raced 55 yards for a touchdown.

He was aided by splendid "interference. That was all the scoring in the first half, altho the Illinois team was making steady stride towards the locals' goal when the gun sounded. In the first two quarters Galesburg made 13 first downs to Davenport's .1 Once the second half got underway. It was all Davenport and the manner in which Conch Day's gridders performed brought joy to the hearts of the Red and Blue followers. Uefore the game had ended the lineup was stubbed with names of substitutes and they help-d to boost the total score.
