  WABASH BEATS old GOLD and BLACK 80 Lafayette, Ind. Oct. 9.-‘Yea. Wa BASH” 1t was the same old triumph ant yell of the Little Giant” rooters which marked the close of the annual gridiron battle on Stuart field Saturday afternoon. For the fifth straight year, the old gold and BLACK colors hang at halfmast and the scarlet floats from the top. The score was Wabash, 3; Purdue, 0. Wabash scored three points in the last quarter on drop kick by Quarter Back Lambert. who scored from the twenty-five yard line. The Boilermakers had a shade the better of the argument in the early stages of the game, but as IL progress ed the Little Giants gained strength, and in the final quarter the visitors plainly had Purdue on the run Many substitutes were made in the Purdue lineup in an effort to stem the tide of defeat, but 1t was all in vain. The wabash goal was in danger but once. and then Hanna of Purdue tried for a goal from placement and failed The two teams seemed to be very even ly matched up to the middle of the last quarter.
