FOOTBALL.
Howard. 2s; Hlah School, 0.

In a practice game yesterday on the Howard football ground at Twenty-thlrd Street station, Howard college easily de- feated the High school team by the de- cisive score of 26 to 0. The High school boys played a plucky game, but the ex- celent training that the Howard team has been recently undergoing under Coach Cwin made them easy victors. The halves were only fifteen minutes each in length. This accounts for the fact that the score was no larger.
