HIGH TEAMS MEET
At NICOLLET PARK
Central and East Side Struggling
for the City Champion
ship.

Central and East Side are fighting out the
first game Of the city championship series at
Nicollet park this afternoon. Both teams are In
the game to win, and If pre-contest indications
can be trusted, the struggle now In progress
is close and exciting.
Neither team did much work last night, as
the weather was too Indictment and the coaches
were saving their men for today's contest. In
both camps there was decided lack of DON
fdence. and the best either coach would claim
was low-score victory.
East Side is reported to have had another
piece of hard luck. CrambrOok, the center,
upon whom the entire crimson defense depend,
ed is laid up with a broken and will
not be able to play. Captain Bunnen ID out OF
the game with similar injury and Philips,
Barnard or Barrett will take his place at full.
Martin. one Of two fast quarterbacks, Is all
in with sprained ankle and Williams will
probably have to play thru the entire game.
East Side Was sanguine.
Coach Wyman has trained his entire squad
to play fast, aggressive ball, and tho the names
Of many substitutes appear In the lineup, 1t
does not necessarily mean that the team Is
hopelessly crippled.
Central is playing in better luck, and sent
it's regular team. Coach Morse was far from
certain that the red and blue warriors would
be able to win even against Wymans crippled
team, and the Central rooters said that the
best they expected is small score in their
favor. =
Field Is Soft. .... i.

rain, and fast play seemed out of the ques-
ton. This game is the center OF interest for
