this, but no trouble Is anticipated here.
The odds seem somewhat against
Creighton, owing to the result of the
Msrquctt battle. Whllo Creighton ad
mits th superiority of Its oppenents, the
circumstances under which the game was
played tend to exaggerate this. The
score was 43 to 17.
The game was pleyrd on a field literally
