Hard Battle With Heavy-i
Y Penpushers at Rourke
; ' ' Park- " .
By RALPH WAGNER..
' i Buried under an avalanche of fly
i incr red jerseyed backs, the South
High won the "city high school
: euioon went down to defeat before
th powerful assaults of Commerce
; in their annual gridiron struggle at
Rourke park, by a score of 33 to 0.
I' By virtue of its victory over
Coach Patton's players, Commercial
? High claims the city high school
I foot ball championship having de-
Mued Central early in the season.
C'feightoii High, another local prep
school eleven, has yet to meet either
of the three Omaha schools and
, thereby 's not elegjble to lay claim
to the city title. Commerce has of
t fcred the Creighton officials a game?
but the latter retusea. -
The Tackeri from South Omaha
tried hard to fight off the attacks
of the Bookkeepers, but the Com
merce pjayers were to heavy, out
weighing their opponents about 10
rounds 'o a man. Coach Drum
niond's warriors scored soon kafter
the battle started and after that it
"was a slaughter of the - innocents.
Four times the men of Commerce
rushed the oval across South's goal
line,' scoring a touchdown in each
reriod.
. From start to finish the undefeat
ed .. Commerce machine "" plowed
through the Southsiders, ripping and
tearing their way all the while
Coach Pattern's gridstcrs were pow
erless to' stem their assaults and
equally powerless to get any of
fensive started for themselves. ;
The foot bailers from South Oma
hi put up a game the Commerce
pigskinners will long remember.
Derpite the beefy Bookkeepers, the
1'ackers fought from whistle ' to
whistle and ended the battle -fight-it
a their towering opponents in
true South High style.

Yankton Greyhounds
And Dakota Wesleyans
To Play Turkey Day
Yankton, S. D., Nov. 18.
(Special.) Coach Montgomery of
the Yankton Cojlege Greyhounds,
is depending largely on the fact that
he has three teams of varsity play
ers to make a good showing for
Yankton in the Thanksgiving day
game with Dakota Wesleyan at
Mitchell, when state conference
honors will be- determined. Giesler,
former university star tackle, and
dependable man for the Grey
hounds . thus ' far., this season, is
carrying his arm in a sling as is
Dawson, end,' and former Cornell
player. Coates and Jamison, heavy
line men, are out of play with in
juries from the battle with the big
Rapid City Miners, and in scrim
mage last night Yongworth, all?
state quarterback, whose general
ship lias kept Yankton, the only
team beside the state university, un
defeated this season, received a
bump on a bad hip which promises
to keep him out oi play. -
Yankton is going to Mitchellrwith
a special train and determination
to wipe out the record of last fall
when the Methodists conquered the
overconfident Greyhounds for the
first time in four years. The last
time the annual game was played on
the Mitchell field Yankton won, 19
to 13. The game a week from today
is to decide conference honors in
the state, and the Geryhounds are
going to fight for them. ' -

urday. Thc,brothers hail from Law
rence, Mass., and according to East

but he happens to be gifted with an
exceptionally good voice as well as
an appearance which more than jus
