BLUES DEFEAT WHITES ON PRACTICE FIELD Game Was Played to Finish Despite the Threatening Weather The football game between the Whites which was played on the practice field Saturday morning, ended in a 7 to 6 score for the Blues. The game was played through to the finish, despite the threatening weather which drove away most of the spectators the teams had been playing long. The team play exhibited by both elevenes was unusually good considering the fact that practice has been going on only a comparatively short time. Signals were called in a business-like fashion and formations were completed in almost finished style. The only score of the day was made when Burt carried the ball across the line. The new rule of scoring a goal had been followed. Hodges kicked a goal from placement for the extra point. Black at end for the Blues, played a brand of footballall most equal to that which he displayed in the Missouri game last fall. Burt in the backfield also did exceptionally good work. "Andy" McDonald who was shifted from end to quarter, gives him the advantage. Likely pilot man by next fall, if he continues to improve and show the ability he did in this game. The only casualty of the game was the broken collar bone which Mosby received. The fracture was only a green break, however, and not an absolute fracture. Though painful, it will not keep him out of the game for long and will leave no permanent weakness.
