BRUINS WIN RAGGED CONTEST
AND ARE NOW CHAMPIONS OF
GRIDIRONS IN TWO STATES
Although Superior to North Dakota Aggies in All Departments of the Game, Univer
sity Eleven Is Able to Make Only Two Touchdowns in Whole Afternoon's Work,
Winning, 13 to 0-Much Wrangling onField Slows Up Contest-Robertson Is Hurt.
Montana today, by virtue of a 13-to-O defeat administered
to the North~"Dakota Agricultural college football team, in
a ragged football contest played on Montana field yester
day afternoon, holds the championship of the Flickertail
and Treasure states. Montana demonstrated superiority in
every department of the game over the victors but did not
seem to be able to put over touchdowns when the oppor
tunity was presented. The 'Bruins, playing their normal
game, are 40 points better than the North Dakota team met
here yesterday. In the battle against the visiting Aggies
they were fortunate to get away with the long end of the
score. The contest was not well fought by either team,
though, individually, each Montana man tried hard and as
individuals the Bruins deserve credit. Montana's line was
strong but recessary substitutions in the backfield many
account for the disorganization in this department.
Robertson Is Hurt
Robertson was the only man injured in the contest: He
has a bad case of water on the knee. He was given treat
ment in a hospital last night. It will be several days before
he is able to work again.
Field Wet
The game was played on a field
soaked by rain and snow and the play
ers splashed though pools of water in
their efforts to reach the goals. The
footing was fairly good, however, and
each team was able to play the "open"
style of game with some success.
Aggies Poor "Sports"
The battle, if such toe mix may he
called, was a slow one and was
featured by more arguments and more
"rag-chewing" than has been seen on
Montana field in many a day. The
North Dakota Farmers have all
missed their calling, if their actions
of yesterday are an indication of their
natural learning. They should be
lawyers. They began to talk in prac
tice before the game; protested each
down: argued over each decision of
the officials and carried on word bat
ties among themselves. On the whole
the North Dakota Aggies are the poor- i
est "sports" that the Bruins have meto
this season
Bruins DiVorganized
Montana was a disorganized eleven
yesterday. Each man tried hard
enough but the efforts of the Bruins
were not concerted and the team
seemed to be "up in the air" through
out.tlhe greater part of the contest.
Though several times within five
yards of the goal line, the Bruins
could not get together long enough to
put the ball over and poor generalship
in directing the plays was responsi
ble for the inability to make yardage
against an inferior team.
Aggie Line Good
The. North Dakota Aggies have a
strong line from tackle to tackle but
the ends were weak. TWhether or not
this had something to do with the few
end runs attempted by Montana, no
one can say.
Some Freak Plays
Friday, the 13th, may have had its
effect on the players of both teams.
Freak plays were numerous through
the mess and the crowd never knew
what to expect next. Among the
freaks of the game were: A kick by
MIcQuillian of the Aggies, which hit
the Aggies' center in the back of the
neck and allowed the punter to re
cover the ball; a kick blocked by Ows
ley, which caused the ball to bounce
into the arms of the Aggies' booter;
two touchbacks made on Montana,
when forward passes were intercepted
behind the Aggies' goal line; a suc
cessful forward pass by Montana,

Owsley to Vance, which netted eight
yards for Montana but on which Mon
tana lost the ball because of failure
to make the necessary 10 yards in
four downs; Montana was allowed
three downs instead of four when the
ball was half a yard from the Ag
gies' goal; -Montana allowed five
downs in the center of the field, when
a series of forward passed failed to
make the yardage required by the
rules.
Aggies' Goal Always in Danger
Throughout the battle, the Aggies'
goal line was in danger. Practically
all the play was in the visiting team's
territory and they had only one
chance to score. This came as the
first ended. The hall was then cn
Montana's 15-yard lEne.
Montana's First Score
Montana's first score came in the
first eight minutes of play. Robert
son returned the first kick-off 24
yards; Sanderson took five yards
through right tackle; Vance and Ows
Icy got six yards and first down by
two plays through the line; Rohertson
made five yards; Vance took three
through left tackle; Owsley made 14
yards on a run around left end; Vance
made seven yards on two plays in the
line and a forward pass. Robertson
to Sheridan, netted 25 yards and a
touchdown. Owsley kicked goal.
Score: Montana, 7; Aggies, 0.
After this score had been made
Montana seemed to let up and the re
mainder of the quarter was a give and
take affair with Montana in the Ag
Ries' territory all the time. The first
quarter ended with the ball on the
Aggies' 15-yard line in possession of
the Bruins.
Bruins Lose Chance
At the opening of the second quar
ter, Montana lost a chance to score
after a 10-yard run by Robertson; a
five-yard gain by Sanderson and a
five-yard run by Robertson had
placed the ball on the Aggles' one-half
yard line. Vance lost four yards on
the next play and an intercepted for
ward pass. on the third down, was
declared a touchback and the Aggies
given the Ihall on their 20-yard line.
The Aggles could not make yardage
from scrimmage and punted often
during tile remainder of the quarter.
Montana completed two forward pass
es in this quarter, one from Vance to
Clarke, netting 12 yards. The Aggies
attempted nany passes, none of which
BRUINS SUPERIORITY
SHOWN BY DETAIL
Following is the detail of the
Montana-North Dakota Aggie game
and shows better than could col
umns of type the superiority of the
Bruins over the visitors:
Yardage f rom scrimmage-By
Montana, 385 yards; by Aggies, 63
yards.
First downs-By hMontana, 15;
by Aggies, 4.
Forward passes-By Montana, 15
attempted, six successful for 114
yards; by Aggies, 11 attempted, four
successful for 35 yards.
Penalties-Montana, two offsides,
10 yards; Aggies, offside holding
and interference, 28 yards.
Punts-By Montana, two for 45
yards; by Aggies, 10 for 220 yards.
was complete. Montana lost the ball
;on downs twice in this period. The
half ended with the ball on Montana's
15-yard line, where it had been placed
by punts.
Third Period Tame
In the third quarter, Montana
booted every chance to score and was
held by the Aggies on downs on three
different occasions. Incomplete for
ward passes were the cause. The
'North Dakota team demonstrated on
many occasions that it could not gain
against the varsity. The quarter was
a tame one throughout.
Bruins Score Again
Montana scored in the last period
after having been under the Aggies'
goal posts for more than five minutes.
The Aggies were penalized 8 yards,
half the distance to the goal, for in
terfering with a man about to catch
a pass; an intercepted pass followed
and the Aggies got credit for a touch
back and the ball was out in play on
'their 20-yard line. Robertson then
intercepted a 25-yard pass and re
turned 15 yards before he was downed.
A pretty pass, Robertson to Vance,
netted Montana 22 yards. Sanderson
made eight yards around left end and
this placed the ball within six inches
of the goal line. Vance was shoved
over for the touchdown. Schreck
missed goal. Score: Montana, 13;
Aggies, 0.
The remainder of the quarter was
all Montana's but the team could not
add to its total. The game ended with
thd ball on the Aggies' three-yard
line, after a pretty pass by Vance
,was grabbed by Schreck, who was
running down the field, 30 yards away.
'Final score: Montana, 13; Aggies, 0.

negotiating with the graduate man
ager of the Oregon Agricultural
college in an attempt to stage a
Montana-O. A. C. game in the Ta

made today.
LOY0LA WILL PLAY
MONTANA COlEGCE
.THIS AY
ELEVEN FROM CATHOLIC eHIGH
SCHOOL WILL JOURNEY TO
PEN CITY FOR BATTLE
The Loyola high school football team
will leave for Deer Iodge tomorrow
afternoon and will meet the heavy
Montana college football team tomor
row afternoon in the Pen city. The
Loyola team is going prepared to
fight a hard battle and the players
feel that this game will be the hard
est one of the season.
Men Picked.
Following are the men who Coach
Higgins has selected to meet the Mon
tana State college eleven: Ford and
Rouleau, ends; Duffey and Maloney,
tackles; Corrigan and M. Maloney,
guards; Currie, center; Stowe, quar
terback; Higgins or Johnson (Capt.),
and Bourgeois, halfbacks; LaChambre,
fullback.
The Loyola team is slightly crip
pled because of an injury to Captain
Johnson. This star of the eleven Will
be started in the battle if possible and
Higgins will be held in readiness in
case Johnson cannot play throughout
the contest.
Coach Sees Hard Game
. "We know that we are going against
a hard team tomorrow," said Coach
Higgins, last evening.. "The Deer
Lodge institution, I understaiid, has
a day and night, school and it is an
eleven from the night side of the col
lege which we are to meet. The night
school is made up of students, men
largely, who work in the Milwaukee
shops at Deer Lodge during the day
time. We understand that the aggre
gation we are to oppose will outweigh
us about 20 pounds to the man. How
ever, we expect to plan an 'open'
game almost entirely, and we believe
that this kind of football will be ef
fective against ,the heavier eleven."
"Bill" Guerin -will go with the Loy
ola team to stagve as referee, and
Walsh, Waltercikrchen, Fahnlander
and Stinger wi be substitutes for the
Loyola eleven., The team ekpects to
arrive back in abissoula tonight.

ON EA.STERN AND MIDDLE WEST
ERN GRIDIRONS, TOUGH
TANGLES SCHEDULED
New York, Nov. 13.-Chief interest
in the eastern football schedule for
tomorrow centers in the Yale-Prince
ton game.
From an offensive standpoint Yale
appears to outclass Princeton, since
each team the Blue has faced this sea
son has been scored upon repeatedly
with the exception of the strong Wash
ington and Jefferson eleven, which
won from the Ells. 13 to 7.
If the fighting spirit and jump can
be instilled into the eleven in the
early minutes of tomorrow's contest,
the' Tigers may close their season with
a victory, but the Yale supporters are
offering odds that this will be a foot
ball upset, not scheduled for Saturday.
The Pennsylvania-Dartmouth game
offers somewhat similar conditions
upon which to speculate.
Dartmouth, were it not for the de
feat at the hands of Princeton, would
today be ranked as one of the in
-,lnciblo teams of the east. If Penn
sylvania wins tomorrow it will be a
remarkable triumph -for the Quakers
end another of the season's startling
football upsets.
The leading games of the east to
morrow with the scores of last sea
son, where the same teams met, are
as follows:
Yale at Princeton, 3-3.
Brown at Harvard, 0.37;
Dartmouth at Pennsylvania, 34-21,
Colgate at Syracuse, 35-13.
Virginia at Swarthmore, did not
play.
Maine at Army, did not play.
Colby at Navy, did not play.

MISSOULA'S SLOGAN
SPELLS A VICTORY
"We've Never Beed Beat6n in
Butte," will be the slogan of the
Missoula football team when it en
ters into the battle against the
Butte high school team this after
noon. Butte has never taken the
measure of any team, in any sport,
that has been coached by John Mo
Gough, mentor of the Missoula
scholastics. Missoula believes that
it will win over the state champions
today. The outcome of the battle
will go a long way toward deciding
the championship among the high
schools of Montana.
Full of "pep" and showing 'a deter
nmination that pleased Coach John Mc
Gough, the Missoula high school foot
ball eleven last evening went through
its last workout before going against
the championship Butte high school
eleven at Columbia Gardens, .near
Butte, today.
The battle on the big camp grid
iron this afternoon will be one of
championship caliber and if Butte ex
pects an easy time they will be great
ly surprised when Coach McGough's
colts open up. The eleven which will
represent Missoula today is one of the
best that the local high school has
had in some time; the championship
of the state is a thing not so far away
from the grasp of the Missoula team.
The eleven has a battery of plays that
will baffle any team and the execu
tion of the various passes and plunges
is good. The Butte team will out
weight the Missoula players, it is said,
but they cannot outfight them.
The Missoula team, accom anied by
Coach McGough, a score or rooters,
and Principal Ketcham, will leave for
Butte this morning on the Milwaukee.
The team will probably return to
Missoula tonight.
The officials of the contest will be
Hock of Butte, and Nissen of Missou
la, who will probably change off in
the referee and umpire positions, and
Elton, of Anaconda, will be headlines
Butte Ready.
.Butte, Nov. 13.-(Special.)--What
should be the best football struggle of
the season is set for tomorrow after
noon at Columbia Gardens when at
2:30 o'clock the Butte and Missoula
cl:vens will clash in their first contest
of the season for state championship
honors. As Butte will meet no other
Montana high school team this sea
son, the result of tomorrow's game
vlli have a large bearing on the state
championship.
Butte wound up its preparation for
Missoula today with short and light
practice followed by a long evening
session of signal practice and a dis
cussion of football generally and the
opponents' play in detail. The team
is in good physical condition and the
coaches have managed to pound into
the players that they are by no means
invincible.
The field gives prospects of being
slippery tomorrow afternoon. There
is an inch of snow on it. Weather in
dications, however, point to a clear
and bright afternoon.

People Will Atend.
Princeton, Nj J., Nov. 18$.-The 40th
football game between the teams of
Princeton and Yale will be played here
tomorrow afternoon before the largest
gathering that has ever .witnessed a
contest between these two institutions.
Judging from the advance sale of
seats fully 40,000 spectators will file
ieto the new Palmer Memorial stadium
which will be formally dedicated by
the gridiron struggle between the Ells
end. the Tigers. Dating back to 1878,
this series of football games is one of
the classics of the sport, having con
tinued uninterrupted since 1876 when
football was adopted as an American'
college sport.
The elevens are expected to epter
the game well matched, for both
s~itads contain a number of veterans
and brilliant recruits, who have been
drilled by strong coaching staffs un
ti. they have reached the end of the
season stage, developing into power
ful and aggressive aggregations. Al
though defeated or held to a tie score
game at least once by early-season op
ponents, the two teams are now
formidable combinations, well versed
in all the offensive and defensive tac
tics of modern football.
Hinkey's Coaching.
Under the coaching of Frank Hin
key, former captain and star end at
T ale during the early 90s, the Elis
have rounded into one of the most
versatile scoring machines of recent
years. The Tigers, with Herring,
"Snake" Ames and other equally
famous Princeton players of past
years, acting as coaches, have shown
some brilliant open methods of attack
this autumn. Whether the defensq is
as strong as that disclosed by Yale on
several occasions is considered doubt
ful by the experts. In the seven
games played by Yale this season the
Plue was never in danger except in
t!.e Washington & Jefferson contest
when the Elis met a team entirely
