St. Mar s scored first one a pretty forward pass, next on a fluke and finally on a Y goal from the field. The fluke was the result of a misunderstanding.

During the first half every third down started a 40 or 50-yard sprint in which half of our boys and a few of the Normals took part, the man with the ball l T l th t the man acting as pace maker. So numerous were the scores made by U. M. C. a who failed to carry the ball over the line was the exception.

A f st ame, replete with pretty plays and sensational bits of foot ball. An on- 3 S side kick resulted in the only touchdown of the tangle. A goal from the field a few seconds ahead of the last whistle brought the count up to 9. A better fitting climax to- a successful season could not have been imagined.

These results, however, do not justly represent the relative strength of the two teams. Our boys, realizing they were heavier, exerted a greater effort on the of- fense, and repeatedly carried the ball the length of the field, but invariably found the opponent line impenetrable when a three-yard gain would have meant a touchdown. The field was heavy from rain, and to this condition the small score was no doubt due. UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS. The result of this game was a complete surprise to the Razorbacks, as well as to the students of this school. It took us just two minutes to score a goal from the field, and five minutes more to plant the ball beyond their goal posts. Our team repeatedly tore holes in the Swamp-dwellers' line and clearly demonstrated the fact that a Razor- back is not necessarily a true exponent of the pigskin. ' SOUTHWESTERN COLLEGE. Our boys began like a whirlwind, and before the Winfield Rooters could realize that their rustic heroes were up against a squad of live ones, we had 6 points to our credit. During the last few minutes of play, however, they got away for a touchdown, but not before Lane, the referee and a tried friend of the Winfield coach, had sent Smith and Robinson to the side lines, convicted of charges, the nature of which not even VValter Camp has the most remote idea. ST. MARY'S COLLEGE. Our only Waterloo of the season was presented to us in a sportsmanlike- package and we have nought but praise for the donors. Throughout the first half it was hard to find a spectator willing to jeopardize his long green on the Kansas boys, and not without reason, for repeatedly we carried the ball to within five and ten yards of their goal line, either to fumble or to play off side and be penalized. On two other occasions our rabbit's foot played us false. Once with-

Officers are elected annually, and managers of the various branches of sport are appointed by this body. Their decision on matters of internal contest is final. Zllnnthall F antiquity of origin is to be considered as constituting a claim to honor, the game of football stands pre-eminently among the sports of the English-speaking people. For at least 600 years full-blooded people have loved the action, the rush and the struggle of the manly game. Kings with their edicts, divines with their sermons, wits with their caustic ridicule, phychologists with their weighty theorie, and scholars with their cultured -scorn have lent their talents to its prosecution, yet its defense with no assistance, other than the spontaneous approval of two nations of action-loving men, has so completely triumphed that the game has been handed down to- us intact, still popular and bearing the marks of a brilliant future. All things have had their beginning and from what I have learned of the game of our remote forefathers, the Greeks deserve the credit of the origin of our present national winter sport. They were the first to play a game with a ball, the object of which was to advance it by force beyond the opponent's line or goal. The rules were simple and admitted of great latitude, namely, any means in their power. From Greece the game made its way tsomewhat changedl into England several centuries later, and was there, in spite of its disfavor at court, nursed and developed at R b College until in the winter of 1873-74 it assumed new proportions in the form of ug Y an intercollegiate contest between Oxford and Cambridge. From this date its progress d lo ment was truly meteoric ln an incredably short time American universi- and eve p . ties had embraced it with open arms, and had incorporated it in their curriculum-s.
