Early in the game the visitors advanced the pigskin down the field to the edge of the scoring zone where Quarterback Clinton was forced to use his toe for the first score of the game.

There's a Reason for Gepford, oeprord for Thrift ROSE POLY IS LAST ON LIST Millikin Eleven Will Meet Indiana School Thanksgiving Day Millikin closes her football season Thanksgiving day, when she meets Hose Poly, in what will undoubtedly be the best game of the year.

Rose has cleaned up some of the best minor college teams in Illinois and Indiana. Her season's record is as follows: Rose, Alumni, 0. Rose, 25; Charleston Normal, 0. Rose, 21; Butler, 7. Rose, St.

Xavier 2. Rose, Franklin, 14. Rose, Wabash, 10. Several Rose Poly scouts saw the ilillikin-Wesleyan game, and got some of Millikin's formations, so Coach Wann is developing some new stuff for the clash with the Hoosiers. In a Good Team.

Several of the Rose Jllayers are exceptional men. Englehard, halfback, was cited in the Indianapolis Star for his brilliant performance In the Rose-Butler game. The speedy back got away for three touchdowns in the last quarter, when the score stood 7 to 0 for Butler. The Star also cited Harris, tackle, for his work in the Wabash frame. Coach- Watin coached Harris in High school, and he says that tho big fellow was a whirlwind.

With several years experience in college, Harris should be a world beater. Gilbert, who used to be at Bradley, is coaching the Rose eleven, and he is a good man, full of tricks. Coach Wann expects the Rose game to be by far the best game of the season. The champion, undefeated Blue and -White aggregation will have a tough time in maintaining her clean record. The largest crowd of the season is expected to see the Thanksgiving game.

Three new sets of bleachers are under the course of construction at present, and when they are completed there will -be a total of 3.000 seats available, besides a great amount of standing room.

"Sid" Gepford played at left the rail bait with the Staley aggregation most of the game and he made some substantia! gains by squirming his way through Areola's defense. His passing was accurate In most cases and one instance toward the last of the game he got off a 35 yard pass to Bailey who sprinted the rest of the distance to the goal for a toucn-4on. The game was a much better one than was indicated by the score the Areola team did not give up although they were unable to penetrate the Staley defense. For Areola Honn stood out aa the itellar man but most of the players were in the game at all times and their tackling was hard and accurate n-ost of the time. Richmond and Harris, former Champaign High ichool stars, protected the wind positions of the Areola team and played good games although i-taleys made many good gains around both ends.

Areola kicked off to Gepford who returned the ball about five yards. The PoUKlas county men held for dcwr.s and Lanum kicked to Honn who returned the ball 20 yards before be'nS downed. Repeated gains by Earrlngton, Honn and Schroeder netted the Arcolians two first downs but on a fumble Decatur recovered the ball. Drrsnen Makes Flrar.
