The game proved a royal battle i throughout. Both classes were in the contest to win and fought with bull dog spirit. A tremendous crowd wit nessed the game, it being the first football game played on the Aggie campus since 3905. The freshman rooters took their s'and on the east side of the field, while the sophs were entrenched on the west side. As the game progressed, they cheered their respective teams on and hurled defis at each other across the field. For the freshies, Koch and Young- strom played a strong offensive game. Koch got away several times for big gains, while Youngstrom hit the line hard and was almost always sure for a gain. Enstam replaced Nelson at left half in the second half and shortly af.ervards scored the freshies' only touchdown, following a sensational 30 yard run by Koch. Enstam was par ticularly strong on the defensive, re peatedly nailing sophs when it appear ed certain they would get away. Ben son played a consistent game at quar t -back for the freshies. Sophomores Score. The game opened when Mollander kicked off 40 yards for the sophs. The freshies returned the ball to the center of the field, where they lost on a fumble. The sophs immediately be gan a straight march toward their goal, Mollander, H. Anderson and C. W. Anderson tearing off good gains, and Houloose finally skirting the freshmen's right end for 20 yards and a touchdown. Mollander kicked goal. Score, Sophs 7, Freshmen 0. Neither side was able to score dur ing the remainder of the half, play ending with the ball in the center of the field in the possession of the s :li s. Mollander kicked off 40 yards at the opening of the second .half and the freshmen returned it. 10. On the first play the freshmen fumbled and lost the ball on their own 30-yard line. The sophs started on another march to a touchdown. Houloose tore off 10 yards and Mollander followed with a sensational run around right end for 15 yards, planting the ball on the freshmen's 5-yard line. After two at tempts, Houloose went around left end for a touchdown. Mollander kicked goal. Score. Sophs 14, Freshmen 0. Freshies Tally. The success of the sophs seemed to drive the freshies. After Mollander hfiil lri-1:or1 rft Ail vat-Ha anil Ronsnn 1 had come back 10, the lower classmen started a fierce attack. Youngstrom, Koch and Enstam took turns in carry ing the ball 5 iu 10 yards, and finally Koch got away for a 30-yard run. The freshies continued their victorious ad vance, and, aided by a 5-yard penalty against their rivals. Enstam was fin ally pushed over the line for the first freshman touchdown. Enstam missed goal. Score. Sophs 14, Freshmen 6. After Nordgren had kicked off for the freshmen, the sophs carried the ball to within 5 yards of a touchdown. Here, however, the freshmen exhibited the most, bri'.liant defense Nduring the whole game, prsenting a stone wall against the soph attack. Four times the sophs tried to push the ball over, but when the last scrimmage was over, tl-e ball was still a foot short of the mark and the freshies assumed the at tack. The quarter ended with the ball in possession of the sophs on the freshmen 25-yard line. When play was resumed, H. Ander son carried the ball 10 yards, and Moliander got away again on a run around right end for 15 yards and a touchdown. He missed goal. Score, Scphs 20, Freshmen 6. Following the end of the freshmen sophomore game, the sophs macte good their claim that they would "get the goat of '-he freshies'' by leading a real goat onto the field, decorated in the freshmen colors, behind which the sophs fell in line. The soph girls gave a banquet Saturday night, at the Colonial hotel. Rock . Island, to the members of the team, the subs and the cheer leader.

Moline. winning the game by a score of 21 to 0. The game demonstrated that popu lar opinion among the football fans of this section in regard to the respec tive strength of the two teams, was wrong. Since the Illinl held the Olympics to a tie several weeks ago, playing what many thought a more clever game than the Olympics, many were of the opinion that the Illinl were the stronger of the two. But Sunday afternoon in the last half of the game the Olympics played a bet ter contest by far than did their op ponents. Hard Fought at Start. The game gave indications during the early, part of being a close con test. Kuehl won the toss and chose to defend the west goal. The teams played a clever exhibition of the old style game, and both elevens were forced to kick or hold to downs, sel dom making the required ten-yards. There were several long runs, how ever, Coyle, left half of the Illinl. tearing down the field for a 30-yard gain on a line smash and Stow, of the Olympics, securing a 25-yard gain for his teammates. Start Scoring. The Olympics appeared as a new team when they returned to the fray at the beginning of the third quarter, and for the remainder of the game, played a more superior contest than the Illini. Kuehl and Freeburg, of the Olympics, made long gains on smashes through tackle and Freeburg put the oval over the line for the first score. Sies kicked goal. Score: Olympics 7. The Illini were seemingly Imbued with a new fighting spirit after the first touchdown made by their oppon ents and for the remainder of this session held the Olympics scoreless. but were unable to get the pigskin very close to the goal they sought. In the fourth quarter a clever for wafd pass gave the Olympics a gain of 40 yards. Hartjiell passed the pig skin to Sies who delivered it to Kirk 30 yards away. Kuehl and Freeburg by a series of end runs and smashes through the Illinl line placed the ball within the shadow of the Illinl goal posts and Kuehl carried It over. Siea kicked goal. Score: Olympics 14. The third touchdown was made by Freeburg and Sies again booted an additional tally, making the final score 21 to 0 in favor of the Olympics. The Illini placed the ball once dur ing the game on the Olympics G-yard line but were held for downs. Their booting heroes failed on several at--, tempts at scoring via the drop-kick route. Harwell of the Olympics out punted his opponent and in every way the Olympics played a more clever game than the Illini. Kuehl, Sies, Freeburg and Hartzeil were the stars of the Olympics, while Verslius Coyle and Soderstrom played the leading roles for the Illini. The first half was marked by the number who took short vacations from active play while resting a weak ankle or a bump on the shoulder. There were quite a large number of Rock Island fans present at the game. The teams lined up as follows: Illinl Stahr, le; Wright: It; Mon. tier, lg; Nelstrom, c; Soderstrom, rg; Johnson, rt; Overhold, Anderson, re; Livingston, Coyle, qb; Coyle, Carlson, lhb; Miersman, rhb; Versluis, Duffy, fb.
