YELLOW JACKETS LOSE TO TIGERS The Bluffton Tigers added another scalp to their growing list of victories over their ancient rivals, when they defeated the Decatur Yellow Jackets. 1.1-0 In a game played at Bluffton. Saturday, before a crowd of approximately 1,500 spectators. Bluffton scored her first touchdown just after Van Horn recovered Decatur's ccstly fumble on her own 15-yard line in the second quarter. A few minutes later Swlgert went over for a touchdown. He place-kicked the polat after touchdown. In about the middle of the third quarter, with the ball on Decatur s 40-yard line, Oerber punted to Blufft n's thirty-yard line, where Pyle waited underneath the ball. Backed by almost perfect interference, he ran through Decatur's hastily drawn up defense for a second touchdown . In the last quarter, the Tigers were almost due for another score when the final gun stopped them on Decatur's 8-yard line. The teams were fairly evenly matched with the exception of the scoring department. Pyle, with his interference probably spelled Bluffton's superiority in this line. Decatur’s punting was very weak, placing the Yellow Jackets under the handicap of playing in their own territory most cf the time. Decatur had a strong line. This fact more than likely kept the score as low as it was. The game was distinguished by its Sack of forward passes. In the first pai t of the fourth quarter, it seemed as though Decatur might score. Butcher and Kiess wrought havoc with the right side of Bluffton's line and Gerber and Deßolt ran through the holes for three first downs. Then someone must have thrown a monkey wrench into the machine", for, after several incomplete passes and a few short gains, Bluffton got posession of the ball and started another march down the field. In the first quarter, Decatnr's line proved its valpr by stopping Bluffton on about the 15-vard line. After holding the Tigers for two plays, a penalty cf fifteen yards for back field in motion put the ball out of danger. Pyle, of Bluffton, was the best individual ground gainer in the game. However, through the efforts of Gerber, Deßclt and Roop, Decatur, scored neaily twice as many first downs as Bluffton. Decatur's line appeared somewhat stronger than Bluffton's although the Tigers ran in a number of substitues in the final half. A large crowd estimated at 1,500, viewed the game. It was Bluffton's! home-coming game. Several hundred j from Decatur were present. First Quarter Williams of Decatur kicked off j about 45 yards. Bluffton ran the ball back to Decatur’s 40-yard line when Decatur called time-out. Gerber of Bluffton made ten yards through the line and Pyle followed with 8. With the ball on about the 15-yard line Bluffton was penalized for back field in motion. Decatur got the ball and after several attempts at the line, Oerber punted to the 45-yard line. Decatur was penalized 5 yards for off sides. The ball was given to Bluffton and Pyle made a first down on the 45-yard line. High made three yards off tackle. Musser tackled Pyle for a loss. Pyle punted 20 yards out of hounds. Gerber made 5 yards through the line. Roop, of Decatur, substituted for Beery. Deßolt and Gerber made gains for a first down around left end. Roop was thrown for a loss and Gerber made 5 yards through line. Gerber punted. Second Quarter Bluffton punted. Roop made six yards through line, and Gerber followed with 2. Van Horn was injured and LlufTton called time out. Decatur punted. Bluffton was penalized 15 yards, and punted to Decatur’s 45yard line. Deßolt was injured. VanHorn recovered Gerber's fumble on the 15-yard line. Decatur got the ball and lost it again in dangerous territory. Schroeder pased to Penrod for a small gain. Schroeder made 6 yards for a first down. Pyle made 10 yards around end with 4 feet to go for a touchdown. Pyle put the ball within one foot of the goal line and Swigert went over for a touchdown. Pyle place kicked the point after touchdown. The half ended with the bail in the middle of the field. Third Quarter R. Hesher kicked off about 28 yards down the field. Roop made a wide end run with no gain and Gerber punted, Smith, of Bluffton, ran the ball back to the 40-yard line. The ball remained in the middle of the field for a time and then was pushed back to Decatur's 40-yard line and Gerber punted to Bluffton's 30-yard line. Pyle caught the ball and, running about ten feet from the sidelines with very good Interference, ran the ball through about half the Decatur team for a touchdown. Pyle mised the point after touchdown. R. Hesher kicked off and the ball remained near the center of the field until the quarter end-

By SOL METZGER Harvard's biggest problem will be ; to stop Dartmouth's running attack in I the stadium today. Coach Horween ! has likely primed his men to look out i for forward passes, such as Dartmouth ■ is famous for, so the ground attack of the Big Green eleven will be the counter. Coach Jesse Hawley uses a balanced line and various running formations. The one here is applied when the opposing tackles are figured to be below the average, as it lends Jtself to a smashing attack off the tackle on the strong side, a play that is hard to stop. When the opposing backs begin centering their attention on this smash off tackle Dartmouth usually counters with its strong reverse play, the play shown here. It worked splendidly last fall ami for some seasons previously. The ball is passed to the fullback, No. 6. who breaks tt> the right as if off tackle. Instead, he hands it to No. 3, who swings to his left rear. No. 6 continues and takes the opposing left end, while Nos. 4 and 5 rush to the left to take the opposing right end. As they strike him No. 3 cuts in as shown between the opposing right end and tackle, the latter having been blocked by end No. 1. Monday—how Yale stopped this play in the past. There is a right and a wrong way to play football. Sol Metzger has written and illustrated 32 plays which will be of invaluable aid to every player. Send ten cents in postage ! and secure a copy.

The game is expected to ' draw 30,000 spectators. Minnesota is favored to win. Both - teams are undefeated and the winner stands an excellent chance of completing its western conference schedule i without a setback. Home-Ccming At Illinois 1 Urbana, 111., Oct. 27 —’(U.R)— Sixty thousand Illinois "Homecomers” asJ sembled here today to witness the | game between northwestern and the undefeated Illinois eleven. Zuppke's team, which successfully defended its 1927 title by defeating Indiana last week, is favored to win, but northwestern has an unusually powerful back* field and a strong aerial game. Michigan vs. Wisconsin Ann Arbor, Mich., Oct. 27 —<U.R) — Michigan thrice defeated this season fared an almost impossible task today in attempting to stem the advance cf the powerful Wisconsin eleven.

Notre Dame vs. Drake South Bend., lnd., Oct. 27 —(U.R) — Notre Dame and Drake meet here today in the second home game of the season for the Irish, and one in which they lupe to stage a comeback.

Kansas vs. lowa State Lawrence, Kas., Oct. 27 — (U.R)' — | Hr pesos Kansas football fans that the I weather would be fair and the field fast today for the Kansas-lowa state game practically have been fulfilled.
