Knights o f the Pig Skin from Pa­
cific University emphatically de­
feated the gladiators of Whit­
worth College on Tacoma field
Saturday. Although Pacific was
shaky at the start, they quickly
gained confidence and from that
moment on the Whitworth men
were completely outclassed and
outgeneraled. Early in t h e
game,Pike, Whitworth’s captain,
was seriously injured and re­
moved to the hospital, where at
first his life was despaired of,
but later taking a turn for the
better will undoubtedly fully re­
cover.
The game was fast on Pacific’ s
part, and played with a snap and
vim. Whitworth eleven were in
poor condition, and stopped the
game several times.
