weighing her by twenty or twenty-live pounds. In spite of the fact that she was up against a bigger, heavier team, Hudson fought to the end. Time and time again she worked forward pisses for long gains only to be stopped by her heavier opponents in places where trick plays could not be nsed. It was the universal opinion among the spectators that Hudson had a fast brainy team but that ihis could not off-set the weight of her opponents. The men offic;ating were all from Menoraonie and in addition to that the Menomonie players used rougher tactics than are generally allowed in a high school game. No discredit whatsoever can be cast upon Hudson High for losing a game to a team of the weight and speed which the Menomonie team exhibited.

Handicapped as the Hudson team was by the oarring of three of the first team men, they put up a good tight and, though defeated 12 to 0, were not in the least discredited by losing to a team of thatcalibre. Stillwater had to work through every nvnuteof play, and Hudson High kept them guessing as to what to expect next. No one was disheartened by the defeat and the team went to work with vigor to patch up the weak points. Hudson was victorious over Galahad on Oct 12, bv a score of 18to(», the game being played at the Athletic field. Though Hud- son High was victorious, the general opinion was that they did not play the game they were capable of playing until the last quarter. No points were made by eitherteam until the last quarter, but Hud- son carried the ball close to her opponents line several times in the early stages of the game: she lost the ball by unlucky fumbles. In the last quarter, however, she redeemed herself, putting the pig's skin over the line for three touch-downs in twelve minutes. Then it was that Hudson showed the kind of ball she was capable of play- ing and, by forward passes and trick plays, gained ground on Gal- ahad almost at will. A few slight injuries were received in this game but no one was hurt badlv enough to be kept out of later games. On Oct. 17, River Falls saw her team go down to defeat on her own field, Hudson High winning the game by a score of 21 to 13. This was one of the besr of the season and the play was fast and furious from start to finish. River Falls scored on a touchdown, a goal kick and two field goals; Hudson’s score resulted from three touchdowns and three goal kicks. The forward passes were again the means of Hudson High's best gains and one of them re- sluted in a touchdown. The referee was slightly in favor of the River Falls team but, in spite of that, Hudson won by a good mar- gin. At Menomome on Oct. 26, Hudson High School met the high- school team from that city in a rather one sided game. Hudson High played a team entirely out of her class, her opponents out-

EXCHANGE. ’ Trifles make perfection, but perfection is no trifle”, Michael Angelo, The reason an exchange depart raent Is so necessary is because we can never see our.selves as others see us. The publications from other schools serve as an excellent mirror in which our faults are reflected. A kindly criticism here, a suggestion there, may be trifles in themselves, but they help the recipient on towards the goal of perfection. Among our present exchanges of the year are: “The Dinosaur, Lari in ie, Wyoming. Your cuts are neat and attractive, a few good stories would im- prove the paper. “The Mirror”, Mondovi, Wisconsin. The standard of your magazine would be raised by using a bet- ter grade of paper. The group pictures are rather indistinct, but the cuts are attractive and interesting. A few stories and also a table of contents would improve the paper. We miss from our exchange files these magazines, and hope that we will see them soon. “The Index”, Oshkosh, Wis.
