PLAT PLZAYS LAST GAME Star of Many Battles Comes From Sick Bed to Help Win the Long-Coveted Grid- iron Contést. LOCALS PLAY AERIAL GAME South Dakota Starts Out Like Winners, Boys From North Scoring First. SIX THOUSAND AT GAME . Creighton university alumni and friends are today singing the praises of Tommy Mills, their foot ball coach, and to the Creighton team. For they have been avenged. Avenged of foot ball defeats of nine successive games. Many years ago Creighton started into wallop South Dakota. Nine times they tasted the bitter stiig of defeat. That is, if you count the contest last season, when the Catholics held the truculent Coyotes to a scoreless tie. Even then Creighton adherents took the matter as a defeat for they thought that the blue and white war- riors should have trampled over the South Dakotans. But yesterday it was different.

DUTCH PLATZ. 3 ate from the law school next June. Then there was Art Stapleton at right guard who stopped every at- tempt of South Dakota going through Creighton won and won in a manner that left no doubt as to the superior- ity of the two elevens. The score was 20 to 13. Six Thousand at Game. The six thousand fans who wit- nessed the contest are positive that 'no better game was played in the middle west and they are equally sure that Tommy Mills has one of the best foot ball machines ever seen in action in this city. And this is how the team proved it to the throng of {oot ball enthusiasts. They ran the ball up and down the field for three touchdowns. They pulled off six perfect forward passes out of fifteen attempts, while their opponents tried nine and were able to negotiate but one for a distance of fifteen yards. They made first down twelve times. The Coyotes did the same thing but twice. In fact, Creigh- ton accomplished everything in the way of foot ball that a team can ac- complish, If there was anything lacking, it certainly was not evident to the crowd. 3 But Few Penalties. And incidentally the contest was as clean as two teams fighting for supremacy could play. Creighton was opponents were set back a distance of forty-five yards. The Coyotes started out as if they were positive of annexing another vic- his side of the line. Art played one of the best defensive and offensive games of his foot ball career. Little Quarterback Long was no piker when it came to getting in the lime light. Long was there and over in catching the heaves of Captain Platz. If Mull- holand ever played a better left half and left end than he did yesterday, there are those who would have like to see him perform then. Mullho- land seldom missed a tackle, Time and again her aced down the field when Lutes punted the ball and tackled the Coyote back field man in his tracks. Duncan, McKinnon, Har- mon and Reifel were the real stars of the Coyote aggregation. The lineup: CREIGHTON. |Pos. SOUTH DAKOTA Bronnan LE|L. .Duncan (C.)

Omaha High wound un one of the most brilliant season in the history of the school yesterday by defeating the St. Joseph (Mo) High school eleven, 35 to 7. & Omaha gave the fans a wide as- sortment of foot ball from line plung- ing to the most brilliant of open fhot ball. Every trick play that Cgach Mulligan has taught his proteges dur- ing the last week was tried and worked out to perfection. The hon- ors were divided evenly among the members of the Omaha tetam, Shep- herd getting two touchdowns, More- arty and, and Peterson and Maxwell one each. The Omaha line, several members of which played their last game for the high school yesterday, put up a gritty battle against their were ripping up and down the field! on tackle-back plays never failed to gain and were called upon numerous times to make first downs.

The game was scrappy and hard fought, being characterized by line plunging and punting. Bellevue had a stronger team than in former years and was able to break up Tarkio's forward passes successfully. The de- fensive work of Irwin at end for Bel- levue was fine.

Paynter made twenty-five yards on tackle around, and a fordward pass, Maxwell to Shepherd, scored the first touchdown. Maxwell kicked goal. Omaha kicked off, and St. Joe punt- ed and recovered the ball on Oma- ha's twenty-yard line foltowing a fumble by Maxwell. The ball' was advanced to the 15-yard line, where Omaha held, and a drop-kick was at- tempted on the last down, failing by only a few feet. The quarter ended with the ball in Omaha’s possession on _their 40-yard line. The second touchdown was scored carly in the second quarter. A long forward pass, which Shepherd got possession of after it hahd bounced out of the waiting arms of an Omaha player and had been touched by an opponent, was responsible for it Maxwell kicked goal. Morearty ran the ball around right end and cov- ered the intervening fifty yards to the goal line, but the touchdown was not allowed because Phillips was caught holding. But “Morey” was not to be denied, and after Maxwell had taken the ball to the 15-yard line, he swung around right end for the remaining distance and the third touchdown. Maxwell kicked goal.
