ILLINOIS HAS A GREAT FOOTBALL TEAM

With the game with Minnesota on November 25 to decide the western intercollegiate conference championship as the goal toward which to turn their eyes, the Illini football men -are id grand form. Coaches Hall and Lindgren, both alumni of Illinois, are again back coaching and expect to turn out the banner eleven of the west this year. Only four veterans have been lost to the team by graduation—Captain Butzer, guard; Twist, center, and Bernstein,' halfback. All the other veterans of the team that went through the season last year without losing a

game or being scored on against the best there was, with the exception of Minnesota, have weathered the gales of scholastic standing and financial discrepancies and are out on the field getting ready to win the conference championship.
