Classical School Notes

Gridiron enthusiasts are expressing
great confidence in the chances OF the
school TO get the pennant this year. These
hopes are based first on the fact that a
large part OF last years team are still in
the school,. and second because the In
creased number OF boys attending tho
school as result OF Technical not being
open will give the manager an unusually
large number OF possible football candi-
dates from which TO select the team.
The Classical Debating society Is TO
hold its first meeting OF this year next
Wednesday.
Those who are acquainted with athletic
conditions at the English think that Esy-
lish will make a hard fight for football
honors this fall Although the school did
not make a good showing on the gridiron
last fall the coming in OF some good ma
terial this month are making the aspect
much brighter

BASE BALL GAME
THIS AFTERNOON
But IT RAINED

The first of a series of three games
will be played by the Hattiesburg team
and the semi-professional team known
as the Postals, of New Orleans, on the
local diamond this afternoon.
The New Orleans aggregation is
known to be one of the strongest nom
league teams in the country and it
comes to Hattiesburg backed by
most enviable reputation and the local
team will meet foe worthy of thier
skill.
The game will be called at 4 O'Clock
and 1t is expected that the biggest
crowd that ever turned out to see a
game of ball, in Hattiesburg, will be
on hand to see the home team on the
firing line in real action.
All these other games have simply
light skirmishes but this engagement
promises to be the real thing without
any frills and with absolutely no fam
cy touches. The Postals are said to
be bringing cracker-jack battery but
on the other hand Hattiesburg will
| furnish one also and the game will be
fight to the finish and no favorites
will be played.
For the past two weeks the local
fans have been patiently waiting for
today and now-well, they, are just
roofing away for Hattiesburg and the
Red Birds.
The Postals arrived this morning
and are CHARTERED at Fabacher's and
the outfit is certainly a fit looking
bunch and its safe bet that the Hat.
tiesburg favorites will have an inter
esting time with them.

of the two teams this afternoon.
