Saturdays Football Game.

Eleven husky young men from
the Granite Falls High school came
up last Saturday to push the pig
skin against the Willmar High
school eleven. To state the case in
plain language, the local football
chaps were mot in it. " They start
ed out well and for a short while it
seemed that they would hold their
own, but it didn't take long before
everyone realized that the game
would be one-sided. The Granite
boys were unusually large for a
high school team, out-weighing our
boys b. Is pounds to the man, and
played a better game. The Will
mar boys should and would have
put up sitter battle but for the
fact that, owing to internal dissen-
sions, they had not practiced for a
week. Saturday morning things
had been "patched up,' but the
practice they took then merely tired
them out for the afternoon battle.
Under different conditions the vic
tory for Granite Falls might have
proved good deal harder to gain.
At the end Of the firsC half the
game stood 10 to 0, and after the
smoke had rolled away at the fin
ish, the score stood 43 to 10 in ia
vor of the visitors. The game,
however, was clean all thru and the
locals took their medicine without
a Whimper. The Granite Falls boys
were a gentlemanly bunch all thru.
