St. Joe Outlucked And Meet With 6 to 0 Defeat.

Kirby Hall, of Notre Dame University, paid a visit to St. Joe Sunday and met the representative football team of that institution. The Visitors emerged from a hard fought game with a 6 to 0 victory dangling to their belts. Jimmy Babcock, former Rensselaer high school star, was the boy who carried the pigskin over for the only touchdown of the day. This score came after the first five minutes so play. The Hall team marched staedily down the field and Jimmy punched his way across the dine. —" Luck was the predominating factor in the defeat of Coach Parker’s charges. Three times his men carried the ball down to the Notre Dame twenty-five yard line and three times lost the ball on fumbles, when it looked certain that they would score. Notre Dame slightly outweighed St. Joe, but they did not outplay them and were lucky to be able to go home with a victory. The feature of the game was a long njn by Wellman, who intercepted a forward pass on his own twentyfive yard line and ran it back fifty yards. ’ Vanderhaar also starred for St. Joe, while Bumbaholdt led for Notre Dame.

I am in business for myself opposite D. M. Worland’s furniture store and am ready to meet all cars and all kinds of work. Batteries looked after, generators and starters fixed, radiators soldered and vulcanizing. We dp expert work for the same price.—M. J. Kuboske, Prop.
