DES MOINES, Ia., Nov. 26.—(Special Tele- gram.)—Ames defeated Drake at the league grounds here today by a score of 17 to 0. Drake was not a match for the heavy, brawny farmers from the State Agricul- tural col'ege, being outwelghed at almost all points. The game was one of the hard- est fought in the history of local foot ball, three - trials -being required for every firsi down. Ames used line plunging tactics ex- clusively, hurling fts heavy backs into the line for 'their gains. Ames had no stars, but the team worked together like a clock. Warden at end and Scott at fullback p'ayed with a dash and strength which made them almost irresistible. As they played today the Ames team is the best team that ever plaved in the State. ¢ The game between Drake and Ames was witnessed by a splendid crowd, which com- pletely filled the stand &t the Athletie park, in the heart of Des Moines. Nearly 1,000 persons came down on & special train from the state college to shout for the boys of that college and see the game. The Drake people also turned out well, since the day was & fine one for a game, though a trifie cold. The lneup of the team was as fol- lows: | AMES. L E E Lowe La LT G .

CPOFreoRER T B " H Umpire: Smith Statement from Doane, CRETE, Neb., Nov. 2,.—(Speclal, o statement of the facts In the Bellevue- Doane football controversy is due the public and may perhaps lead to the enlightenment of the Bellevue correspondent. The facts may be summarized as follows: First, Doane does not claim colleglate chumplonship. Second, Doane does claim. to have had in the seasgn just passed the strongest team in the league. n other words, ' the Congregationalists maintain that Bellevue did not and cannot win from them in a straight game of foot ball. Third, Doane sought to make good this claim of superiority by playing a sec ond game. Manager Tidball, both by lettor and in person, tried to arrange a second mme with the Presbyterlans. This chal enge they, however, refused to consider, though both teams had open dates. Fourth, the records made by the two teams ure held to substantiate Doane’s claim of su- periority. the inter- North Platte Too Heavy, GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Nov. %.—(Special Telegram.)—North ' Platte's High school ifoot "bull “team again defeated Grand Is- land’s High school today, making & score f 11 to 5.

All the scoring wa done in the second half, Wisconsin appar- ently not having enough strength to hold out through the game, although it fought desperately all the time. Captain Abbott of Wisconsin was dis- abled early in the first half. Minnesota seemed to be overconfident in the first half, but got down to hard work during the sec- ond period of play. Michigan had defeated Wisconsin 16 to 0 and Minnesota had tied Michigen. Minnesota wished to excel Michi- gan and by hard fighting did so by one point. This was why Wisconsin spurred Minnesota to flerce playing in the second half. The Minnesota team worked together and pounded a victory out of & good team be- fore an adversely inclined audlence of 7,00 persons. Davis, Irsfield, Currant and Schacht performed prodigles of valor to the repeated applause of Wisconsin rooters. Harrls, quarterback, time and again made runs for gains which brought the crowd to Its feet. During the second half the ball was almost continuously in Minne- sota’s possession. Wisconsin was fighting an uphill game al the time, Sachacht car- ried the ball across Wisconsin's goal line. and Burdick had the honors. Rogers kicked goal twice and the score was Min- nesota 17, Wisconsin 0 Wisconsin's desperate, despairing de- fense checked Minnesota's ambition to far surpass Michigan's score against Wiscon- sin. Wisconsin tried to kick goal from place four times, three in the first half and once In the second. Indian Was Ineffective. Baine, a former Carlisle player, essayed all the placement goals. The first one was, from the 40-yard line and was so close that Wisconsin's rooters set up a shout of triumph, but the ball had fallen short The other attempts went wide of the goal posts. Wisconsin never stood a chance of mak- Ing a touchdown save once. and this chance, with the ball on Minnesota's twenty-yard line in the first half, went glimmering on account of one of Baines fruitless' kicks, In Madison tonight it was generally admitted that Wisconsin was outplayed. Pertke, Vanderbroom, Baine, Schofield and Fogg did their best, but the defense, which all but kept Michigan from scoring, was no more than competent to hold Wisconsin. The game marked the farewell appearance of Allen and Abbott. Abbott lasted only half an hour and was fairly dragged from the fleld, crying and protesting, and a substitute put on by name of Jones. Minnesota suffered most from penalties, their offside play counting heavily against them. At the beginning of the game they lost five yards three times in succession in consequence of their anxlety to get started. The thermometer was about 20 above zero, yet there was little fumbling and none that was costly, About 800 Minmesota rooters were pres- ent. The lineup: WISCONSIN, Abbott, Jones..
