...pass lost the ball to '90, but '90 couldn't gain its five yards in three downs and had to kick. The kick was returned to Grane who was prevented from running. A shove, a kick, and a run gave '90 another chance to kick a goal but, without success. Ninety-one lost the ball on four downs.

It is only too true that one of the fatal weaknesses of the college in an athletic way is our proneness to one-man dependence, or as the Advocate terms it, "the star system." A result of this is that we are easily discouraged; let anything happen to our star and we become despondent and down on our luck, lose half...
