MAKING EFFORT
TO FORM A TEAM

City Has Excellent Material for Fast
AgTegation-West Ends Fail

Awake to the fact that the present
year presents an excellent opportun-
fly for the reorganization of an amateur
football club in this city, enthusiasts
are busfIy, engaged in raising a fund
with whichsto equip a team and get II
IL the field 1t has been many years
since Rock Island has Dragged of a
well organized football club and fol
lowers of the game have been COMPEL
ed TO go to Moline TO satisfy their de-
sire for the sport Their allegiance has
usually been extended to the Moline
West End club which nearly always
contained several Rock Island players.
This year, however, the West Ends
have failed to organize and the cit'
faced dearth OF football of the indie
pendent variety.
MUCH MATERIAL AVAILABLE.
There is no lack Of material in the
city for q fast team and it has been
due entirely to lack of effort that the
name OF the city has not been carried
about the state on the shoulders of
successful football machine. The local
high school has turned out many eX-
cellent players who have quit the
game mainly because there was no To-
cal organization with which they could
affiliate themselves and there are nu-
merous other players who would be
willing and anxious to try for the team
once IL is well organized and backed.
To have real team, however, backing
is q necessity and with that end IN
view. several enthusiasts have been
circulating a subscription list for a
week past and the results have been
very gratifying. IL seems assured that
enough money will be raised to equip
the team and hire a competant coach.
MEETING TOMORROW NIGHT.
call has been extended to amateur
players who would like 10 join the
squad, to meet at the Atlas cigar store
On Twentieth street and Fourth ave
nue. tomorrow evening at which time
temporary organization will probably
be effected. IN this case plans Will
be made for starting practice al once.
a strong effort will be made to win
the tri-city championship away from
the Illiai club Of Moline which last
year wrested it from the Moline West
Ends.

A board of control is being organ
lied to govern all matters pertaining
to athletics. 1t is composed of three
teachers, T. p. Sinnett, president; f.
F. Burch, treasurer, and A. G. Hill,
and three students to be elected by
