Hammond High School Foot
ball Team Leaves For
South Bend.

The Hammond high school football
team is going out after big game, al
though it is still early in the season.
They were scheduled to, play the
South Bend high school team this aft
ernoon at Spring Brook park in South
Bend. They will have to overcome two
disadvantages that of playing on for
eign ground and playing a team that is
heavier.
Whether Hammond wins or looses
this game of today it will have great
bearing on future results They will
have met one of their strongest op-
ponents and that in itself will help in
future games with other schools. Should
Hammond bring home the prize this
evening. it's honor will be doubly great
for having defeated a heavier team.
Coach Alice and Principal McElroy
accompanied the local score of boys to
South Bend today. The trip was made
on an interurban car leaving here at
$40 this morning.
The Hammond team has practiced
hard ever since the season opened and
already has one game to IT'S credit.

A matter of interest to local peo-
pie. in view of the fact that the manu-
facture of steel passenger cars at the
local plant of the Standard Steel Car
company has been undertaken, is the
information that all of the Hartman
lines are to be equipped with steel
passenger cars as soon as the old ones
wear out and can be replaced.
Ae report from Chicago is as follows:
The Hartman lines have decided to
adopt steel constructed passenger cars
over their entire system and have given
TO the Pullman company an order for
22o. The cars are TO be steel shells and
are to have as little wood as possible.
They will be almost indestructible.
