A Practice Game at Island Embellishments
and neutrality-suspicious. to Play.
The football teams of the Young Mems
Christian Association had another practice
game at Island Park yesterday afternoon.
For some reason it has been impossible up 10
the present time 10 get the necessary number
of twenty-five players together as the same
time. several OF the Originators have been
unable to attend. and il has been deemed best
for that reason TO suspend the practice tenn
porariIy until it will be possible TO get two
complete teams.
ON account Of the scarcity Of players it has
been necessary TO reduce the rush lines from
seven 10 five, and on several occasions out
siders had 10 be called IA to make "a game pos
bic.
Tomorrow week a game Of football Will be
played at Island park between the randolph
Macon eleven and that OF Richmond College.
and it is expected that 10y that time enough
enthusiasm will be aroused TO enable the
members of the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation % take up their practice game again.
As matters stand at present there are only
thirteen PLAYERS to be counted on under al
circumstances. for they have been on hand at
every practice game.
Under the circumstances the concert has
been postponed which WAS TO have been given
tO-mOrr. w evening for the beneht OF the
football team. IL was the intention to use
the proceeds of that concert to deiray the
expenses of buying suits for the players.
The game between Kandolph-Macon and
Richmond College was originally set down
for tomorrow afternoon. but the Randolph
Macon team having been unable to secure
their suits in time the game had to be post
uOned tor a week.
