    NOT 50 BAD AS BEFORE DE PAW DRUBS ROSE POLYTECHNIC AT TERRE HAUTE. Purdue Shows Greer Under-Ear1ham Beaten at Cincinnati-Other In diana College Games. Special to the indianapolis Journal. Special to the indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE. Ind, Nov. S.-De PAW again defeated Rose Polytechnic, but not so badly as at Greencastle. where the score was 62 to o. To-day it was As to O. In the first half the Rose men made the visitors struggle for all the advantage gained, which was a net result of sixteen, but in the second half De Pauw went through the line at will. The game got rough in the second half and there was some smuggling. Bowie, who was playing left tackle for Rose, had to leave the game on that account, Krieger taking his place. The touchdowns were made as follows: Pear son, Robbins CD, Connolly, Davidson C), McKinstray, Brown. Coble kicked five goals. Weik, of Greencastle, was referee. and Richards, of Terre Haute, was umpire. Iine-nn.
