The High School foot ball team
went to Hancock last Saturday to
play with the High School team OF
that city. AS was expected by
those acquainted with the conditions,
the boys we're badly defeated The
Hancock players were much larger,
and have had the advantage OF at
least last years experience. Their
team work was excellent, and they
put up a defense that, as far
as L'Anse was concerned, was
perfect. Hancock played straight
foot ball and beat US badly. we
have no excuses to offer, and only
hope for better luck next time. The
boys, each and all, enjoyed the trip
and have only words OF praise FOL
the manner in which they were en-
tertained.
