GAME WITH HUB
IS ARRANGED

Hammond and Crown Point are to
have one more test for supremacy on
the baseball diamond. After consider
able preliminary negotiations for an
extra game the decision was finally
reached to play game at Crown Point
next Sunday. Hammond at first in
sisted on the game being played here
but Crown Point would not concede
this.
All those desiring to go from Ham
mond can do so by going on the noon
Erie train, leaving Hammond at IL 80.
The game will begin at o'clock in or
der to give the Hammond contingent
an opportunity to return in time for
an early supper
The game next Sunday is not to effect
the big series in which Hammond won
two out of three games. The PROPOSE
ton is simply this: Crown Point hav-
ing been badly defeated in the last
game at Hammond wants to show Ham
mond that 1T can put up a winning
game. Hammond, on the other hand
says I'VE have defeated you twice and
we can do 1t another time" The game

FOOTBALL TEAM. TO
GIVE ITS FIRST DANCE

The Hammond football team will
give the first dance of the season at
Longs hall Sept. 20. Rarnie Youngs
orchestra will furnish the music. The
dance will be a public one and an adj
mission of so cents will be charged.
This will be a revival of the old
football dances which used to be so
popular few years ago. While these
dances have always been open to the
public, there has been a good crowd
present and everybody has reported a
good time
The members of the team expect to
have a good eleven to represent Ham
mond this year, and the dance is Civ
en- partly as social stunt and partly
to enable the team to purchase the
necessary suits and equipment.

the big smoke was the treat given by

Jimmy admits his age. He is the

Rev. Sharp. pastor of the First Bap-

talk to the student body this morning.
The minister spoke upon the customary

no way bordered upon the formal. Many
of the statements were unique truths
given in a typical humorous vein char
acteristic of the speaker. The most
pronounced point of the discourse was.

idea man." In explanation Mr.. Sharp
said that narrow -mindedness was not
an attribute of the phrase only to the
extent that the one desired object or
purpose should ob1verate every mo-
mentary impulse. During the ensuing
school year half an hour will be devot-
ed upon every Tuesday morning to
