Another Victory for u. C. T. S.

Another Victory for u. G. /. S.
The Training School football team de-
feated Trenton University team in a fast
game by the decided score of 80 to here
Monday. The visitors were out-classed
at every phase of the game. However,
in spite OF the gloom, the visitors played
with all they had in store for the Train
ing School throughout the game. The
game was really more interesting than
the score indicates. The score would
doubtless have been nearer fifty had the
full time been taken. Forty minutes
was taken, while the rules designate 60.
Those who witnessed the Martin game
will doubtless say that the present team
is one of the best the Training School
has ever put out. Several of the spec
tators have said that Martin was out
classed in every way. Martin had not
been defeated this season except by the
1TdluluS 0CuOOl.
In the game Monday, w. P. Rogers
made two touchdowns, scoring II of the
30 points; Harris one OF the touchdowns
and Rankin one. Everett kicked two
goals after touchdowns and kicked as
pretty and as accurate field goal as
was ever kicked by college player.
No better men in prep. or high schools
can be found than Harris, Everett, E.
Mcclure and Rankin for back field men
as to forwards, Head, Morris, War
mouth and Bratton or Mitchell are GER
tainly hard to beat. Rogers. at quarter,
is developing into an A l good player
for that position. He has the will to
do and the soul to dare" He has the
spirit and splendid head. Hayes, Nc
Clure, Kirby and Watson will make ex-
cellent players in another year. The
ever faithful Richard Waters is always
doing his duty and places the oval Just
where it belongs.
People OF the town do not realize what
they have in the way OF football teams,
otherwise they would come out to see
them and enjoy clean athletic sport and
encourage the young men who are far
above the average. Surely the Thanks
giving game will be better patronized.
The field should be thronged with spec
tators on that big day-the final game
of the season. Help close it with victory
and make up the deficit in the athletic
treasury.

for the last time and followed her
to her farewell resting place where
she sleepeth till the resurrection
morn. 'Tis then we know the true
meaning of the sacred word moth

Mrs. Friel was known to be a
sweet, gentle, sensible woman. AL

one. Why God calls such dear use
full loved ones we know not and can
not understand, for the wisdom of
