The teams were very evenly matched. A shower which came up early In the game made the field slippery and the ball hard to handle. Without these handicaps It would have been difficult to tell which was the better team. Illiopolis scored early In the game, as the high wind was in their favor. The team used straight foot- tall throughout the entire game.

The Moweaqua team got Its stride in tne second half, when the players made long gains and finally put the ball over for a touchdown on a line buck by Longenbaugh. When time was called, Moweaqua had the ball within 15 yards of the goal. The safety for the Ililopolls team came in the second quarter. Scores by quarters were: Illiopolis 6 2 Referee--Delaney.
