The last games vesterday saw a considerable shifting in the standings. "ashington, one of the Valley weak lings, surprised foot ball followers by defeating Grinnell and climbing out of the cellar. Drake displaced the Jowa State as runner-up when the Kansas Aggles defeated the Ames team, and Oklahoma improved its po- sition by defeating the Oklahoma Aggies. Conference teams fared well in intersectional play, having won five, lost principal outside games. To the Ne- braska Cornhuskers goes the greater share of the credit in upholding the Valley prestige. Besides Notre Dame Nebraska defeated Iilinols and tied with the University of \Washington. Defensive rather than offensive play marked the season on the face of ring records of the teams.

OUSTON, 1 To the cleven ball H players from colleges situated in an area so huge as that em- braced by Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico and Arizona is a difficult task. But Arkansas, New Mexico and Arizona have this year no players who rise much above mediocrity, and so the problem is somewhat simplified. Of four or five Ily good centers, Underwood is chosen becausc of his extreme versatility and usefulness. He captained Rice, gave the sig- nals, often went into the backfield, where he did all of the punting, most of the passing and some of the bucking. He weighs 200 pounds, never gets hurt and is a fierce, but clean, player on the offense and defense. TEAM IN SOUTHWEST U. S. experienced and able to use his hands to splendid advantage. Capt.
