Michigan opened up on forward passes for several long eains. They carried the ball within striking distance on three different occasions, but the Badgers tightened and Taft punted out of danger. Michigan's defense was "weakened considerably when Blott was taken from the game in the second period.

Brown took his place. Tnft Stars for Badgers Rockwell was the outstanding star for Michigan, making more than 20 arils three different times. Taft snowed up best for the Badgers with his long punts and runs. Just as the game ended Taft tossed a long past for 50 yards to Harris on Michigan's 2-yard line. A crowd of Wisconsin followers surrounded Referee Eckersall when the game was over and entered a strong protest against the decision which giive Michigan the winning S'-ore.

Feeling among Wisconsin students Is high as the result of the opening touchdown In the first 10 minutes of play. End runs by Clark were chiefly responsible for the second score, which he made from the 7-yard line at the start of the second period. Pass Succeeds A 25-yard pass from Clark to Britton put the ball on Mississippi's 11- outcome of the game. The dispute in the decision of the referee was when Rockwell, Michigan (By Associated Press.) CHICAGO, kov. 17 Chicago downed Ohio State here today, 17 to 3, In the fourth annual gridiron clash between tho two schools.

Instead of employing the forward pass as had been expected, the Buckeyes resorted to straight football. Chicago played Its usual game of straight football for the most part. Today's game evens the score between the two universities, Ohio State previously having won two games and Chicago one. Chicago's strength was increased greatly before today's game when Harry Thomas was declared eligible and was permitted to play. Ohio Scores First The Buckeyes brought the first blood in the initial period when they twice carried the ball to within a few feet of Chicago's goal line, and finally kicked a field goal when they were unable to score a touchdown.

Chicago scored touchdowns in the second and third periods and a field goal In the final frame. Both touchdowns were made following long runs. In the second period John Thomas broke through the Ohio defense for a run of 52 yards, and in the third period, Pyott, receiving a ands of 'old grads" participating in the homecoming celebration, downed the hard fighting Iowa team here today, 20 to 7. It was a game replete with thrills for Gopher followers, a fitting finale that marked the passing of historic Northrop field, for next season the Gophers expect to play in their new and larger stadium. Out of the detail of play, leap the names of Captain Martineau, Quarterback Graham and the plunging Lidberg, stellar perrformers in a contest that set the Gopher claims to tho Big Ten championship considerably to the front with those? of and Illinois.

It is not planned to protest the game to conference iiu line later in tne nnrer riation from their line plunges and end runs being a few short forward passes. Mississippi was unable to do anything through the Illini line and attempted few end runs. They threatened the Illinois goal line twice, both times as a result of forward pass attacks.

Each time, however, they failed to make a pass good on the fourth down and lost the ball.
