l I l The Qutloolc Some Big Things that Happened in the F all of l 907 The Football Season HHN Minnesota's football team ran out on Northrop Field to play the opening game of the season with Ames last fall, a feeling of un- certainty pervaded the atmosphere of the rooter's section. The team was green. Dr. XYilliams and the men on his general staff freely admitted this point. It was a team of which we could prophesy nothing. Only three of the men had won Mus in football, Captain Schuknecht, Bandelin and joe Kjelland. Ames Game. XYith this distressing uneasiness hanging over us we were not very enthu- siastic. But soon we had a chance to yell. In the first few minutes of play Ames put the ball on our five yard line by two dashing end runs. Right here our line braced up. Three mighty plays were hurled against that wall of bone and muscleg three times did joe Kjelland and his comrades hold fast, forcing the Aggies to give up the ball. The first crisis was passed. Then our untried team got busy: the ball was worked toward Ames' goal, George Capron finally relieving the situation still more by kicking a beauti- ful field goal. 'iCape was the whole show in this game, another drop kick from off his boot in the second half giving us a total of eight. The farmers failed to score. But what a score for a Minnesota eleven! Not a touchdown against an erstwhile second-rate team! That is what hurt most. Yet our boys had put up a game scrap, and this gave us hopes for better things in later games. Peggy Gets l-lurt. There was one other thing that put a damper on our rejoicing over the Ames' victory. An unfortunate accident put poor old HPeggy Wodricli out of the game for the season. YVe expected big things of him, we admired the pluck he showed, and we were sorry to see him leave the field with a disabled shoulder. 27 I HVKNECH 4 .'Xl 'I'AlN lfllli'
