Last Saturday the High school
played football with Marshfeld at
YaWkey park, the game ending in a
score of 43 to for the Wausau bows.
The Marshtield aggregation was bad
ly beaten, and the Wausau squad
would have liked more opposition.

and did some very fine work. Coach
Thompson used the following men
in Saturdays game; McInnis, C; j..
Schneider, |. &; Halder, |. t.; Dou-
vile, /. e.; Holman, +. g; Spar, r. t :;

OF All injured ankle, but he expects TO
play this Saturday. Wiley Sampson
was referee, G. +. Ogden acted as
umpire and Talbot Montgomery was
head linesman. A large number Of
football fans" were out Saturday to
witness the game.
Next Saturday the Wausau squad
play with Grand Rapids at YaWkey
park, and this is expected to be one
Of the hard games Of the season.
Grand Rapids recently played Amigo,
winning by score Of $50. This
looks as though the Grand Rapids
men do some playing, but the Wau
sau boys are determined TO make
things interesting for the visitors,
and undoubtedly will Go so. With
the two conventions in the city on
Saturday and the many interested
citizens of Wausau, there ought to
be very big turn out at the grounds,
which also encourages the boys.
Some of the football equipment,
including jerseys and hose, arrived
yesterday, and by Saturday the boys
expect the balance of the football
toys, and at that time will be all
dressed up and ready to show the
Grand Rapids bunch a good time.
By the way there will be two games
Saturday, one beginning at $50
O'Clock by the second team, and the
big game at three O'Clock.
S77O0 was realized from last Satur-
days game. So far the high school
athletic board has received $500
from the students and teachers of
the high school. This looks good and
the necessary money for athletic ex-
penditures will before very long have
reached the fixed amount.
