And now the Central league comes
through with a wall about having been

there is likely to be considerable action

has reported a good season, and bad
seasons go a long way to make dis

game fellows in every league, but al

things interesting.
The 1914 football season is nearing
the end. There are but two more Sat

and big majority Of teams wind up

the country reports are received to the
effect that the game is in better shape
than ever before. Dozens of close games
have been fought and the teams Of va
rious classes have been, more evenly
matched than ever before. There have
been no instances where phenomenal
teams have been developed, but alto
