COLLEGE FOOTBALL
The Throop football team was badly
worsted in the contest with the Occi-
dentals on Saturday at the grounds of the
latter in Los Angeles. 1t was no wonder,
however, considering the fact that the
Throop boys had only begun to practice
the week before, and also that the Occi-
dentals, besides being heavier, were
coached by an old Amherst man, who
also played with the boys in the team.
There was good attendance of Throop
students. and the faculty were not with
out representatives,. Ate the finish the
score stood Is to 0. The Throop team,
not at all set back by such failure,
promptly challenged the other team to
another contest, to take place within
three weeks. The boys will be in train
ing now till the event comes off.
