Professor Stage declared that there
was no excuse for qualifying the Joy
over the prospects for a more highly
developed game and a more exciting
fight between the contenders for the
title. He told the Maroons that the
autumn grind would bring out an ar
ticle Of ball spectacular enough to
keep the spectators on edge from the
start and the coaches on the jump ev-
cry minute. The exceptional class of
the material in sight Is Stages best
reason for his statement.
The fact that thirty-five huskies are
on deck at the midway was taken to
mean that the Maroons are in for a
decided boom in stock Coach Stage
declares his chances were better than
those of last year, and when pressed
for prophecy said Chicago would
give its rivals a limit fight for the IT,
tie. He believes, however that Mime
sofa and Wisconsin ought to be re-
garded as having even brighter pros
poets than the Maroons.

HAMMOND \. S. TAKES
FIRST FOOTBALL GAME

Hammond high schools classy grid
iron squad commenced their season
with a clean sheet at Harrison park
Saturday afternoon when they took
the fast Bowen high school team of
South Chicago into camp by a score
of IA to 0. Despite a drizzling rain
and a cutting northwest wind, the
football heroes laughed at the weather
man and the interesting struggle was
witnessed by large gathering of en-
thusiastic fans.
When Bowen lined up against the
local warriors they found they had
hard task before them. Bowen was of
the opinion that they were going to
clean up the Hammond contingent this
year and battle themselves in glory.
But 1t was Hammond who did the
bathing and they outclassed Bowen in
nearly every department of the game
Bowen demonstrated though that they
have a faster bunch this year than
last, when the local squad rolled up
a score of "a to 0. They outweighed
Hammond several pounds to man.
but when it come to getting through
the line they found Hammond's de-
Tense like a stone wall.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1913-09-22

Hammond scored their two touch
downs in the first period and 1t looked
like they would roll up large score
in the closing session. They had speed
and cleverness to burn and made con-
sistent gains through Bowen's line.
But few forward passes and open plays
were tried and like YoSts method of
Michigan Hammond's well drilled
squad plugged away at the weak spots
in Bowen's defense.
In the second period Bowen aston
ished the fans by holding Hammond
without scoring. Their line held. the
pigskin going over for downs. Bowen
made several forward passes. scoring
number of neat gains. but Hammond
kept the ball in safe distance of q
touchdown The balance of the game
saw Hammond and Bowen battling
back and forth, the game ending IA to
o in favor of Hammond.
That Hammond has the making of
championship high school team was
the opinion of all who saw them play
Saturday. Each man on the lineup
played his best and each deserved in
dividual mention. 1t is estimated that
500 fans witnessed the game.

storm which has held the Atlantic
coast in it's grip since Friday showed
no signs of abatement today and the

The white Sox need the games worse
than the Red Sox do. for the visitors
are nearly three games behind in the
battle for fourth place, and every
game that is not played gives the home
fellows that much advantage in that
they cannot lose II they don't play.
