After the game the Albany men were
invited out to supper by Judge Burnett
who had been an interested beholder of
the game. The repast was thoroughly en-.
joyed to say the least. The team re-
turned home in the evening.
The o. A. G. team has been in practice
about four weeks and as result of hard
training played together as one man. In fact
it would be hard to pick out any one man
whose work was any better than his fellows.
The o. A. c. team will play the Mon.
mouth team today friday at Monmouth
and on November Both at Corvallis. We
believe we have the make up of good
team and hope to be among the best in a
very short time.
