putting up a pretty stiff article in the
way of foot ball this season.
The visiting eleven arrived from the
north at 1925. accompanied by goodly
delegation of friends and admirers, in
Guiding number of young ladies and
gentlemen from the little Marshall
county town. The team was assigned

The visitors play a line smashing
game and, judging from their appear
ance, Marshalltown expected To have
hard work making very many holes
through the sturdy wall of flesh and
bones against which they played. Ban
gor had many advantages principally in
tlc Idct tnat ner team mas met oppose
ton several times. The eleven has
played three games this season, win
ming from New Providence by a score
Of 10 10 0, and losing To Iowa Falls %
to and TO Eldora 6 10 o. The Marshall
town team was expected to play fast
er game. and to give an exhibition of
higher class Individual work. The team
| is composed of some good material. but
lacks practice, having been organized
scarcely two weeks ago in order TO play
a Thanksgiving game with Eldora.
! When the game opened ii was thought
| that if the team could hold together and
| break the terrible rushes the visiting
| team gave promise Of using, it woulG
| stand a chance of winning.
HOME TEAM AHEAD
Thirty and twenty-five minute halves
We're decided upon before the game
opened, and with the time taken out
| for various reasons the first half was a
long one and was not concluded until
nearly 4 o'clock. Both sides scored dur
| ing the half, but Marshalltown had tht
best of it, Bangor played good foot ball
but Marshalltown played bepter. The
first half ended with the score II to il
Marshalltown's favor. and With the
chances Of the home team winning the
game.
