q. H, s. We. Alumni.

We had the luxury Of a real. old
time and spirit football game on
Thanksgiving day between the High
School team and the alumni OF our
school. The alumni boys had us best
ed in weight and experience. but were
handicapped ia lack of practice and
concerted action, SO that the teams
we're fairly well matched. Both were
Oregon teams and of course there
were no dull moments. The alumni
were able to make but one touch
down. thus defeating us 5 to 0. The
High school boys are to Ike congratu-
lated on holding the alumni to so low
score. Don Hunt was referee and
Paul Frye umpire. We certainly APP
precia,e the kindness Of the alumni
In helping us out both financially and
In experience. The attendance was
good when 1t Is considered that the
game was gotten up hurriedly.
