Foot Ball Game.

On Thanksgiving day treat was given to all lovers of sport by the H U. S. and Warren High School, in the way of a football game. This is the day when all the colleges of the land put forth their best efforts to de- feat their opponents, and the spirit with which the boys went into this game would have been credit to a Harvard-Yale con- test for championship honors.
 Considering the fact that not one of the H. U. S. players had ever witnessed a game and few of the Warren boys had ever played, the game was brilliant The work of both teams was good, but the H. U. S. clearly outclassed their opponents, both in team work and individual plays.
 Frank Jones won first honors at quarterback, where he ran his team like a veteran and nev- CT seemed bit nervous. " Pierce and Oaks at the ends tackled like fiends and broke up the interference of their oppon- ents almost every time. Parrot Martin and Blythe were in every play, often carrying the ball down the field for 20 and 30 yards gain.
 The H. U. S. team with a little more coaching could be made the best of it's class in the state.
 For Warren High School, Com. pere, Nichols. Roark and Butler were the ground gathers.
 The score stood 10 to o in ia vor of the H. II. s.
 Umpire, C. H Jacobson; Ref cree, John Martin; Linesmen Prof. finders and Charlie Rog CTS; Timekeeper, A. w. Lowe.
