  WERE NO MATCH FOR MINNESOTA Stages Men Rushed Off Their Feet by Giants From the North” Losing Game, 80 to o. scRUBY’s BOOT HIDDEN Much HeraIded Footwork Of Maroon Star Not In Evidence-RaIph capron Stars for the vlctors. lGate City Leased Wire Service.1 MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Nov a. Minnesota beat Chicago here today to a 30 to 0 in the best game, from Minnesota standpoint. ever seen. Minneapolis plays completely puzlied the midwaymen and the gophers went through the maroon lines at Will. The Chicago forwards we’re like babies in the hands of the giants OF the north and 1t was Invariably the second defense that stopped the Min nesota backs, when stopped they We’re Scruby’s much touted booting was not in evidence. Pickering and Capron held their own with the ma room punter and the single time Chi. cago was within striking distance of the Minnesota goal. the maroons elected to try forward pass. which failed. Instead of giving Scruby chance at a field goal. On the other hand Smith and Nor rell, unheralded, came to the front with the educated toe, Morrell kick ing a goal from placement from the 10 YARD line and Smith getting two drop kicks from the IL and IS yard lines. Ralph Capron, younger broth err to George, the former famous Minnesota player, was the individual star of re game. Time and again the fleet-footed gopher quarterback shifted and side stepped and wriggled through the Chicago team for long gains. Three times he ran over 80 yards and an other time he dashed 65 yards down the field and was prevented from making touchdown by slipping ar ter he had eluded the last Chicago tackler between him and the goal line. On the offense Chicago could not get her plays started. the Minnesota forwards breaking through and spill ing the formations before they were under way. Toward the last of the game the Maroons in final desperaton tried three forward passes in | succession two of which were sue cessful but not enough to score.
