For Game Against Flic-
kertails Saturday

Reports from the twin cities are to
the effect that Manchester is working
hard for the battle with the Flicker
tails which will take place at the uni
versity Saturday. Since the game
with st, Thomas last Friday afternoon
there has been q great deal of shift
ing in the Presbyterian line and a re-
organization has been started. The
game with the cadets showed up many
"f the weak spots and these are being
strengthened. From all reports the
Macs" will come to Grand Forks
With II strong eleven. one that is en-
pcctcd to do things to the North Da-

the injury, a linking in his leg

generated the team against Dunlap's
machine of ~Flickertails. Parsons is
fully as good a booter as Wick" but
lacks the strength and experience Of
the latter.
Beginning Monday. October 90, no
spectators will be allowed on Norton
field at practice hours The reason for
this order is given by Manager Brown
as follows: 1T is a certainty that
North Dakota was familiar with the
Hamline code of signals and pet
formations which could only have
been gathered from the side lines dur
ing the afternoon practices. So, to
prevent a repetition of this state oe
affairs in future games. the order was
given u Secret practice will be tho
usual order at the Midway school from
now on"
