RAILROAD SURVEY MISSES REMINGTON

New Company Will Take Cross Country Cnt to tance of 4 Yi Miles Saved. ’• T. S. Roberts, the new head of the former Purtelle railroad, before leaving for Wisconsin last week to look after other business, left word with Engineer Wilson and his force to make a new survey for the proposed interurban railroad, taking a cross country angle from the Marion township line directly to Wolcott. By this plan Remington will be left entirely off the road, and Mr. Roberts states that the saving of 4% miles in length of the rdad will result and that this computed into transportation means too much to be overlooked. Engineer Wilson and his crew are busily engaged each day in making the new survey. While Mr. Roberts did not intimate such a thing, it is quite probable that the repeated refusal of Carpenter township to vote a subsidy, for the road has influenced the change in the route, hut the saving in construction expense and in future mileage will he material. Upon the return of Mr. Roberts from Wisconsin it is probable that a more definite plan of proeeedure will he announced to the public. The Republican learns that subscription papers will be passed, pledging donations upon the completion Qf a part of the road. That it will require help to build the road Mr. Roberts is frank to say, but the road will mean so much to Rensselaer that our people can afford to give it all the encouragement needed in order to secure it. Every person in this city and surrounding country knows that we need another railroad and will he glad to help to get it. Mr. Roberts states that he will place all pledges of assistance in such manner that they will not he available until the road is constructed. In other words, he has not thought of pulling off any gold brick scheme on us. He wants us to work together and he will find Rensselaer ready to do its full part if he and the company he represents will act in reciprocating good faith.

Saturday Football Games Wound Up Football Season.

Practically all college games of football for 1913 were wound up with last Saturday, when many of the greatest gridiron battles of the season were staged. Probably no contest created so much interest in Rensselaer as that between Chicago and Wisconsin Universities, and which resulted in a 19 to 0 victory for Chicago. The game was witnessed by several from here. It was a great game and demonstrates the ability of “Old Man” Stagg as a coach. Chicago won the conference championship by this game. Purdue crushed Indiana beneath a 42 to 7 score, Oliphant and Glossop starring in their “exit” appearance, as both have played the three years allowed in the conference. In the east Harvard defeated Yale and is regarded the eastern champion team. The big eastern Thanksgiving game will be between Pennsylvania and Cornell, while the season will conclude with the Army-Navy game on the following Saturday. The local interest now centers in the high school contest for Thanksgiving day, when the red and black will oppose Bowen high school of Chicago.

ST. JOE DEFEATED BY CARROLL HALT.

Score Ended 15 to 14 When Blackman Drop-Kicked Between Goal Posts. The lovers of football who delight in witnessing an energetic struggle had their fondest wishes satisfied on the college gridiron last Saturday afternoon when the Carroll Hall team of Notre Dame defeated the college juniors by one point. The score of 14 to 15 is truly indicative of the battle that was waged between the sixteen-year-old lads representing the two institutions. It was anybody’s game even to the last attempted end run that., was not completed when the timekeeper’s whistle sounded. Prom the heavy rain at noon the field was heavy, afid it tended to slacken the speed of both teams, and both had relied on that particular class of play to get their points. The home boys won the toss and Downey chose to receive and Notre Dame played with the wind and defended the south goal. By end runs and line rushes the home team carried* the hail to their opponent’s thirty-yard line where they lost the hall on a fumble. The Carrollites proceeded to use the same tactics and had the ball on the middle field line. next scrimmage the hall was passed to the fullback. St. Joe was off side; the umpire blew his whistle, the college players made no. attempt to tackle the runner, who carried the ball half the length of the field for a touchdown. The visitors chose to accept the gain rather than the penalty. Blackman failed on the kick and after scrimmaging on the middle of the field ten minutes the quarter ended with six to nothing for the visitors. The visitors came hack with renewed energy and after ten minutes of steading scrapping had another touchdown to their credit. With the opening of the second half the St. Joe boys showed some very strong offensive work. Notre Dame kicked off hut the hoys lost on a fumble. Then with the hall in their opponents’ possession they forced them hack to their own ten, yard line. After the hall had changed hands repeatedly Blackman was called to kick to safety. Seyfred blocked the kick, the ball rolling across the goal line, where he fell upon it for a touchdown. N. Murphy kicked an easy goal. The locals received the kick off and prodeeded to work the ball down the field for another touchdown. Murphy kicked goal. With the score one point in their favor the home lads became over confident and played rather listlessly, thinking to hold the visitors, but they succeeded in working the hall to the 15 yard line. Then Blackman hooted a drop between the goal posts and the visitors had the one point advantaga The home team received and rushed the hall fifty yards in th<s last three minutes of play, but the time was too short to reach the counting point again.
