is over ;the hatchet is burled, and
the University of Kentucky and Centre College are again at peace. The
iCentre Colonels won the annual gridiron contest at Danville last Saturday
by a score of 56 to 0. This game, in
which the State championship was at
stake, drew spectators from all parts
of the State, and was witnessed by
nearly four thousand persons, the
largest crowd that ever assembled in
Kentucky to witness a similar conmuch-talke-

Kentucky Backfield Outclassed.

It wa3 evident from the beginning
of the struggle that Kentucky would
lose, for she was apparently outclassed in every department of the playing, and was at a serious disadvan
tage because of gravo Injuries to several of her best players. Notwithstanding the fact that the lineup included many second string men, Kentucky asked no quarter of her foe.
Paced by these overwhelming odds,
the Blue and Whito defenders nover
lost courage, but fought like demons
for the honor of the University.
If the two opposing lines .had been
of equal strength and weight odds
would have still doubtless been with
Centre, for the Kentucky backllcld,
frankly speaking, was not in a class
vith the Colonol quartet. Roberts,
McMillan, Armstrong and Davis formed a powerful offensive machine

which was very successful.
found It much easier, however,' to
make gains around end3 or via the
air route than through the stono-wapresented by Server, Murphree, Kel-leand others in the Kentucky lino.
"With the exception of Shanklln, star
halfback, Kentucky's backfield was
composed of men playing their first
season who had theretofore been regarded as second stringers.

Kentucky Spirit Demonstrated.
A special train and scores of automobiles brought to Danville hundreds
of football fans from Lexington and
other parts of the State to witness
the crucial game. Immediately before tho game a parade of Kentucky
students was formed, which, headed
by the University
band, marched
through the streets of Danville
airs and giving college yells.
Inside Cheek Field the scene was
more inspiring than ever. The gridiron was nearly surrounded by stands
and box seats, some of them especially provided for this game, and these
were filled with a cheering multitude.
Blue and White and Gold and White
streamers,
aplenty,
and pennants
were gaily flaunted In the autumn
breeze. Outbursts of song, and cheers
and yells were added to the continuous uproar throughout the game.
L'etween halves Kentucky students
staged a snake dance on the field
which was gaily tinted with Blue and
White, and patched throughout its
entire length with pennants and banners. This demonstration of spirit
seemed to have a decided effect on
the teams, for in the succeeding quarter Kentucky seemed to take on new
life and played more successful football than at any other time during
the game.

field and only 15 seconds of play re- e
