Friday afternoon the foot ball team
and several friends left here in a
special car for Platteville. where the
team were to line up against the
Platteville Normal team Saturday
morning. When the delegation
reached Platteville the depot platform
was crowded. The boys were ushered
to the hotel and met many of the So
called giants of the Platteville team
Giants is the name applied to them
| before the train went farther than
Monroe. and surely it was proven
/ true when they came into sight.
The early morning was spent in look
/ ing over the town and Normal build
| ing. and at ten o'clock the team lined
up for conflict. Well, we suppose
that it was conflict, but the White
water team did not seem to conflict
much with the progress of the
Platteville boys, as the latter came off
with score of 30 too The boys can
give no reasons, only that they
could not beat them but they
do say that Platteville people
are very nice people and that
they were very highly entertained
while there. During the entire time
of their stay the Whitewater delegation
had the best of entertainment and
are glad they went. Whitewater
