As usual the football games yester day were full of surprises, some of relief and others of disappointment. Illinois State University anticipated a hard game with Ohio, but had no trouble in piling up a huge score. Chicago awaited with fear and trembling tne coming of Texas. The Texans were an unknown quantity and after they had defeated Washington at St. Louis by a larger score than Chicago did.

it was feared that they would give Chicago the fight of her life. The way the big eastern teams are being held down by thdse that have heretofore been counted as second raters, leads football enthusiasts to think that the big ones like Yale, Harvard and Princeton are deteriorating. They do not seem to be able to get the strong new recruits for their teams that they formerly did. MICHIGAN, 36f DRAKE, 4. Ann Arbor, Nov.

This run the feature of the game.

DARTMOUTH HOLDS HARVARD. Cambridge, Nov. 5 Harvard and Dartmouth fought without a score todays Both teams put up strong defense under their own posts. Harvard reached Dartmouth's nine yard line and lost the ball on downs and mouth met the same fate on Harvard's eighteen yard line. It was a rushing game with few spectacular end runs and very little kicking.

For two years he piayeu baseball with the state university team where he made a good record! As a football player, he was fast and proved to be a good man at quarter and was in this position on the '02 team. He did not play the season through as he was laid out of the game with a broken cheekbone. He left school in the Junior year and went out west to Washington state college where he coached the baseball COACH JAMES ASHMORE. and football team of that college for one year. At the opening of the uni versity he was engaged as coach and entered upon his new duties September.

He has made a very good record thus far and is receiving loyal support by the student body. What a Team Does. Football today has made many a minor school great in more than one sense of the. word. Besides being a good advertisement for the school it creates a college spirit which is everything to a college or university.

The team this year have played straight, honest and clean football and this alone has brought out many favorable comments from the visiting teams. All the visiting teams that have come out upon the Millikin field have left it with the feeling that they have received honest treatment. 3ach Ashmore has worked down the material until he now stands pat upon the following members who will in all probability be given the emblem. History of the Team. A short history of each of the members of the team is Vs follows: Captain Horace McDavid is a sophomore in the university and is possibly the only man on the team who has had six years of football life to his credit.

McDavid is the1 lightest man on the team and one of the fastest men. His weight is 158 pounds. Before coming to the university McDavid had two years' experience 'cm the high school team at HillsDoro. Quarter Back Hugh Crea. Hugh Crea who has developed such wonderful ability at quarter, is a Decatur man and while in the school of this city was a member ot the football team and played center and quarter back.

He entered the university last year and was on the varsity, squad at that time, but did not show; up. to as good advantage as has been, the case this year. In weight he is stockily built and will weigh, stripped, 154 pounds. The Full Back. Arthur Moore, the big full back and the ground gainer on the team, is in his sophomore year at the university.

He is what the coach calls a find the football line. He has not had as much experience in this line of athletics as some others on the team, but he has developed to be a good ground gainer. Last year he was placed at full back and has since filled that position when he played. In weight tip the beam of the scale at 170 pounds. Forrest File Guard.

Forrest File at guard is one of the late additions to the team and has proved to be a good man in the line, quick on his feet and with a dogged courage, which qualities go to make a good football player. He will weigh 148 pounds. Center Alberts. This position of center is generally one which is overlooked by coaches, but this was not the case with the Millikin eleven as they have a good man in James Alberts. He is built close to the ground and will weigh 167 pounds.

For two years he played on the Decatur high school team and on entering school this year was given a chance to show what stuff he was made of. Big Hillsb'oro Tackle. Earl Tobias, the "big" man on the team and this title, he holds with dis cinetion as he weighs, stripped, 223 pounds. He is the hardest man to tackle on the team and is a- ground gainer. For two years he played on the Hillsboro high school team and on entering the school this year showed wonderful football ability and under the direction of Coach Ashmore has been placed in good condition.

Plucky Haif Back. Sam Powers, the 170 pound half back nas seen six seasons on the football war path and has shown good ground gaining ability in the back field. For four years he played on the Decatur nign school team where he was. a star tackle and back. He is a fierce and terrific plunger and the line with ers before his onslaught.

Frank Beal Guard. Frank Beal, the new. guard, will weigh 168 pounds and is a freshman in the school. He was a member of the Decatur high school foot bail team for four years and also a member of the Brown business college team. He has-proved to be a good 'varsity man.

James Moses Half. James Moses, the big half from Em- poria, Kansas, is a sophomore in the college and in the game with the ri linois Wesleyan college he had his collar bone broken and will in all probability be out of the game for the rest of the season." Kenneth Waddell. Waddell has proved himself a good utility man in the back field and will be used in this manner the rest of the season. He is a freshrrian in the school but is not lacking iit experience as he played on the Decatur high school team. His weight is 159 pounds.

The Colored End Man. Arlie Rankins, the 175 pound Freshman end, has proven himself a fast man on defense but poor on offensive work. He has not been able to advance the ball to any marked extent. Rankins is from Macon where he played on the high school team. The results of the games played on the schedule so far are as follows: Tusccia 0.

Millikiti university made quick work of the Lombard College foot ball team yesterday afternoon on Mlllikin field when Coach Ashmore's well oiled 'scoring machine piled up an overwhelming: score of 40 to 0. Four minutes after the whistle was blown a touch down was made and the rooters knew that Lombard was defeated. From that time on Capt. McDuvid fighting machine played in the 'varsity style and crushed out the unfortunate invaders who strove to delay their march. Lombard tried in vain to make defeat look as ignominious as possible.

"With the regularity of the ticking of a cloclti one after another the husky 'varsity men were pushed over for a touchdown and when the first half closed the score stood 22 to 0. In the second half the play was snappy but the men showed the effects of the long runs and terrific hammering and plunging which signalized the first half. Fought in Lombard' Territory. It was a terrific struggle from whistle to whistle but the husky, lads The players reading from left Top Row Waddell, Moore. Bottom Row Rankins, Tobias, from Ixmbard were gradually worn down before the machine-like assaults of the Millikin back field.

Millikin always carried the ball to the Invaders' territory where they be gan their march. The help-him-along tactics were very pronounced and whet a man was tackled it did not necessarily mean that he stopped there. Capt. McDavid was clearly the star player while the work of the back field was terrific. Only on a few occasions did Lombard have the ball and were then tmable to advance the coveted pig skin.

Time and again did the invaders make a gallant stund but they could not withstand the fierce rushes which was characteristic of the 'varsity playing. Only once was Millikin's goal in danger when Powers fumbled the ball on the ten yard line and the fierce rushes led to a fumble by Lombard and Mlllikin recovered and made their touchdown. Fumbling by both teams spoiled excellent chnnces of apparently long gains. Millikin's game was void of much of the fumbling which has characterized their playing heretofore. The revelation of the playing of Millikin wns the strength of their back field.

Moore, Waddell and Powers worked together while the line held strong. -Millikin apparently had stage fright the opening of the" game but this wore off when Lombard failed to imtke their downs after the kickuff and Millikin got the ball on downs and then started on their march to the goal by a series of line bucks by the back field. Four minutes after 1he whistle Powers had kicked goal and th 500 spectators in the bleachers went delirious with joy. Game in The Lombard squad trotted out upon the field at o'clock proud and chesty and promptly at 3:15 Crea of Millikin kicked off to Alvord who failed to advance the oval. Then followed line bucks by the back field for small gains and on the next play the ball was fumbled and Powers covered.

Millikin then tested the visitors' line when Powers set his shoulder to it and it save with him for two yards. Tobias was. shoved through for ten yards and Powers olio wed for eight. The ball was placed on- the half yard line and Full Back Moore was shoved over for the first touchdown. Powers kicked goal.

McDavid, (Capt.) Notes of the Game. Coach Ashmore said after the game was over. "The boys never playe better football and they deserved to win the game. Lombard was outclassed. When Millikin played there was eleven men in The men got off with more dash than they have exhibited heretofore.

They took the visitors by storm. Waddell is the comer oij the team. I was also surprised at the weakness of Lombard and my opinion was that they -would send down a team that would be much stronger. I think Millikin will win from Charleston on Saturday." Capt. McDavid did not have much to say but when asked if he was surprised when the team won the game he said he was not though he did not expect to see as large a final score.

The gridiron was sprinkled the game to lay the dust. before The team is receiving more support by the student body than heretofore. MILLIKIN'S STAE TEAM Made Up of Under Class Men Which Promises Well For Future Years. PRODUCT OF GOOD COACHING. Who will be-the wearers of the Millikin emblem, the official has led to a lively scrap for the football team which has resulted in the making of the fastest eleven that ever wore the biue and white.

This team has a pounds, or an average weight per man I of over 159 pounds. The team besides having a good weight has the speed and the men have also learned to use their hands to a good advantage. There is something singular in the fact that most of the boys are in their freshman or sophomore year in the university which goes to show that the '05 team will be even more speedy than the eleven of this year. Coach Ashmore opened the season with raw material and in fact the majority of the men who donned their mole skin pants on the opening dav 3f school did it for the first time. Later old hish school lads joined 'the squad and the team was strengthened from to time in this way.

Coach Ashmore has been handicap-ed by the fact that the Athietic ssociation were not in a position to erne out with the cold cash to get he necessary eq'iipiaent for the team. ich as a tackling dummy and the These will come on next vear.
