FIRST FOOT BALL GAME WILL
BE PLAYED OCT. %.

The high school foot ball boys
are now beginning to display
their championship ability after
three weeks of hard practice with
the pig skin.
At the close Of practice last
week, four OF the veterans, Capt.
Hutchinson, Wilson, Wright, and
Barrow, were on the injured list;
but all were out Monday after
noon and showed old form by
going through the scrubs line for
a touchdown in two downs.
The game scheduled for today
with Grenada was postponed by
them until the 23rd Of this month to
be played on the local grounds.
The G. H. S. lost five Of the
best boys that has yet donned a
foot ball uniform for the blue and
gold, last year; but from the
present out look tine 1914 mater
ial will develop into a team similar
to the one OF the past year, a
crack aggregation. Wilson, the
fleet-footed star Of former years,
will play right end. Fountain
will play right half back and from
present indications he will be a
strong addition to the team.
Either Fleming or McClain will
play left half. Hemphill or Hum
phreys will make the left end
position. Captain Hutchinson is
to play full back, and according
to the practice games will win
a name for himself this season.
Forester will probably make left
tackle; and Minyard left guard.
Avery, in his first year Of foot ball,
has displayed remarkable pluck
and ability which has won for
him the center position. Wright
will play quarter. Furgeson will
will make right guard and Big
Bruce Gist will be a terror to the
best in the game at right tackle.
