ters went TO Cedaredge last Saturday
afternoon where they contested with
the high school team of that town and
came out victorius by score of 81 to

little or no experience on the grid
iron, that they do not claim to know
anything OF the game, but they wanted
"a little sport of this kind and offered
to pay all expenses if the Delta team
'would come up Saturday and give
them a little practice. They're
bunch of good fellows stated one of
the local boys in speaking of the Ce-
daredge crowd, and we certainly had
a royal good time"

|oyster supper was given in honor OF
the visitors and they were returned
