    Tulane Defeats “oIe Miss” New Orleans, October 31.-Tulane de- feated the University of Mississippi in somewhat of a gruelling football game here this afternoon. Although the Lous- ianans came out victors by the score of 10 to several times during the game it looked as if the Mississippians would win. They kept the ball in Louisiana ter ritory a large part of the time and it was only through the brilliant playing of Moore of Tulane that they were pre- vented from scoring on more than one occasion.
