    HASKELL INDIANS LOSE AGAI1 They Are Defeated by Drake by Gloss Score Of TO 6. Des Moines. Ia. Nov. 1.-THE Has kell Indians football game with Drake today furnished the greatest football exhibition ever witnessed here. Drake gained the winning score on two hukes and a place kick. The most spectacular feature Of the game was Taylor’s 115 yard run across the field in the last half for Drake. Taylor got the BAN five yards behind the goal and ran across the field by assistance of excellent interference on the part OF the other members of his team. The Indians were unable to stop his flight. Taylor also made a place kick. Pete Houser’s work for the Indians stood out above all others. At one time after the ball was fumbIed BY Indians, Houser was first to get il and broke away for 40 yards for a touchdown. The game was hard fought. neither side making much in gains except for nukes. Local follow ers Of the sport concede the game to have been the best ever seen here Score: First haif-Dralze 4 HasIzeil O. Final. Drake g. Haskell S.
