PUNTS AND PASSES.
Collegiate Institute Out of the School
Championship Series.

The Collegiate Institute has gone to
the demnition bowwows. There was
talk last week of its disbanding, and
yesterday it crystallized, and a vote
was taken 10 play no more. The team
started the season with splendid pros
poets. They had d good line up, the
men were willing to learn and some of
the players We're old hands at the game.
But from the start the fates seemed to
be against them. They played but two
games, and tied one of Them losing the
other 70 the Y. NJ. c. A. They became
discouraged, some of the men were in
JuTed, and they quit practice for a
time TO recuperate, and to think it over.
The lay-off was fatal. They got to-
gether again, and had a few days of
good practice, showing up in fine form
But the spirit wasn't there. and inter
est died out. until they yesterday de-
cided TO retire from the gridiron.
But two representatives were present
at the meeting called for last evening
at the Y. NJ. c. A. to arrange a schedule
for the contest for the school champion
ship of the state. Manager Leonard of
the High School and Manager Tanning
OF All HallowS college were the ones
there. The University was urrepre-
scented, and the Collegiate Institute is
out of the race. Leonard and Tanning
held consultation and arranged the
following schedule of three games to
be submitted to the Varsity for ap-
prevail: Nov. %, High School VS.. u. of
T.; Dec. 2, High School VS.. All Hal
lows; Dec. 9, All HallowS vs. u of
L. The only thing standing in the way
of carrying out the schedule is the
fact that the Y. NJ. c. A. and the Uni
VerSity have game arranged for Dec
:, and haNs Walkers field engaged for
that date. Manager Axiom last night.
however, graciously offered to give way
TO the school team if it suited the Var
sity. In case the Varsity does not care
TO accept the schedule as arranged the
All Hallows and the High School will
arrange a series of three games to be
played between themselves.
Gum, the big man who has displaced
St. Enarnman at center on the Y. NJ.
C. a. team, has won his place through
hard, conscientious work. Since the be-
ginning of the season ne has been out
TO every practice and has worked with
no position in sight. In the Ogden
game the Christians loaned him to the
OSdens, and his good playing stayed
many of the advances of the Chris
tians. Captain Dana Smith finally con-
Guided that if Gum could do such fine
work for another eleven il would be
WISE 20 nave MIN regularly on the home
team. He weighs rs pounds and will
show his opponents some good play
ing.
While not much is being heard from
the All Hallows college team they are
by no means asleep. They are practic-
ing hard every day. and are only
waiting chance to get back at their
old rivals. the High School boys. Con-
siderable green material is in the team
this Year, and the two Tanning boys
have had the pleasant Job on their
hands of converting the raw goods into
the finished product that wins football
games. They have made splendid prog
resS, and the men are now in condition
