Chicago, Nov. 26. Iowa and Michi
gan were left the outstanding claim
ants of the football title In the West

season yesterday,' in which Chicago,
tho only other contender, wa held to
a scoreless tie by Wisconsin.
Iowa ended It season with a $7 to"

to 7. In the other game of the day,
Indiana and Purdue tied for last place
by playing each other to a 7 to 7 tio,

Tho question as to whether Chicago
will be allowed to share the title with
Iowa and Michigan I one that prob
ably will not be decided until confer

Some observers argue that since
Chicago did not lose a game, the Ma
roons still have 1,000 per cent aver
age, In spite of yesterday's tie game,
while others say that by failure to de
feat Wisconsin, a twice defeated team,
Chicago failed to show the strength
displayed by Michigan and thereby
waa eliminated from the race.

Board of Control Unanimously
Votes to Forfeit Central-Lincoln I
Game to the Capital City Eleven
lly KAI.PII WAOXKH.
CKXTIUla llHill SCIHsil, uf Omaha is out of the running for the l2t
Nebraska slato high schis.l fisilbiill rhiiniplonslilp. Tin was decided .
yesleiday when W. O. HihW of York, A. M. Nelson of Kearney and
W. J. Hnihaii! of North Pintle, nieiuliers of tho Hoard of Control of Ihe SUt
High HcIiihiI Athletic association, held it meeting at (irund Island and unan ..
linouMy decided to oust Central from the slate title running because lbs
Omaha high school played n Ineligible man against Lincoln high.
In a long distance telephone conversation hist night, Mr, Itrooka 'i
nounced that th board forfeited the Central Lincoln high game, which Cen .,
titil won, 19 to 0, td Lincoln because the Purple of Omaha played Arnold '. t
McDermott, who Is said to bo over age for state high school player.
The action of Ihe stale board leave Alliance, Kearney and Lincoln In the .
running for the state championship. Of the three, Kearney lis the bett, .
claim to the title, a both Lincoln and Alliance have been defeated. How
over, the teams that defeated Alliance and Lincoln played Ineligible men,
In ruling Central out of the state championship the three member of
the Hoard of Control of the ntuta association didn't help high school football
In Nebraska.
Central ha the strongest team of football players In Nebraska. Kan
who havo seen Kearney, North Platte, Lincoln, Oothenburg, Curtl Aggie,'
Alliance and Central play declare that the Purple of Omaha 1 the strongest.
Coach Schmidt of Central played McDermott In the last few econd of '
tho Central-Lincoln game here, Novemlier 4. Neither Central coach nor ,
Principal McMasters, according to their own statement knew that McDer-'
molt wa over age until some ambitious person peeped Into the birth, record
at the city hall. JP
The action of the state board In ruling Central out of the championship
Just because It played a player who wa one year over age for high ehoot
football, will not meet with the approval of high school football fan through
out the state. If McDermott wa found guilty of playing "pro" football,
then tho sidle board would bo praised for ruling Central out of the race, hut ,.
kicking the Purplo out Just because Schmidt played a grldster who no one
knew was over age at tho tlin, doesn't eeeni Just right.
Lincoln, according to Mr. Rrook, wa the only school to protet Central, j
Reatrl'. lost to Lincoln, but did not protest, South lost to the Purple but ,
did not protest; Crelghton high of Omaha lost to Central but did not protest
and Crelghton high ha not lost a Jtamo to any state school but Central, -
During the meeting of the board It was decided to ettle the etaht grid '.
championship by staging a two-game series between Lincoln, Alliance and ,
Kearney, Kearney will meet Alllnnce Thursday at Alliance and the winner,
of this game will play Lincoln high, Friday. December 8, for the slate cham
pionship, providing Lincoln defeat Cambridge, Thursday afternoon, Lincoln
high, should it remain in tho running after Thanksgiving, will travel for the
post-season contest,
