Considerably peeved because of
the disbarment of Connors from
their lineup, and perhaps doing a
little team work with the We
natchee football squad, which is
anxious to play a return engage
ment with the Spokane high team,
the Lincoln high squad, which is
scheduled to play against the locals
at Natatorium park on Thankagiv-
ing day, telegraphed yesterday to
request that the game be cancelled
insofar as Lincoln is concerned,
and that the Wenatchee team be
substituted.
The management of the Spokane
team as promptly replied that there
was nothing doing in the substitu.
ton line, and that the Thanksgiving
game would have to be played as
per schedule.
Inasmuch as the Lincoln school
is bound to the game by contract
and by the laws of the northwest
,interscholastic board, it is hardly
probable that they will refuse to
come over for the game.
