DEFEAT CADILLAC
Alma High School Team Won From
Upstate Eleven.

Coach Kimball's Alma high school
football team rounded into shape in
hurry last week, and as result
trcunced the Cadillac high school
team by score of II TO in "a hard
fought game at that place Saturday.
The orange and black team sur
passed the expectations of even their
coach in downing thu team from the
northern part of the state, which had
been doped all year as "A strong one,
which would make a great record.
No one had really looked for Kim
balls men to fish out victory over
the Cadillac eleven and it came as a
most pleasing surprise TO the Alma
fans.
Taking advantage Of the wind
whenever possible, quarterback Mann
kept kicking the ball and made the
Cadillac team carry it back down the
field and when the goal line was
reached the northern Michigan eleven
lacked the punch to shove the ball
over the line. Time and again Mann
took advantage of the wind in this
way and aided in saving mis- team,
while the Cadillac team was wearing
itself down.
In the first quarter Alma secured
the first touchdown of the game, when
Il forward pass was intercepted when
Cadillac seemed to be heading down
the field for score.
In the second quarter good line
plunging carried the upstate team
down the field, and with Alma eleven
lighting stubbornly against the attack
OF the Cadillac offense the ball went
over for touchdown which tied the
score.
In the third quarter the Cadillac
team went into the lead and for a
time it seemed as if the game had
been cinched by the gold and black.
4 pretty dropkick in this quarter
gave Cadillac the three points which
put her in the lead.
In the fourth and last frame Alma
came back fighting hard for the
game and outplayed the Cadillac
eleven in nearly every department of
the game but seemingly was unable
TO count. Finally. after Cadillac had
taken the bali, Alma grabbed off a
forward pass for second time and
il went over the line for the winning
counter.
Boyd and Herschbergcr scored the
two touchdowns that won the game
for the local team

Monday.

The new school house in Hillcrest
subdivision i'm the southern part of
the city will be opened for the first
time on Monday Of next week.
The school is small temporary

sufficient to fiji the school. Only pu-
pills Of six years and over will be tax
en- in the new building.
The teachers for this building will
be Miss Snyder for the primary and
Miss Jarvis for the second and third
grades. Both teachers were recently

Monday. that the school house in Elm
wood subdivision will be ready to
open, and soon after that, the school
house in the north eastern part Of the
city, recently moved to the Michigan
Heights subdivision, will be opened.
The taking Of the pupils from the

Coach Kimball of the team has been
working up a new offense for the
Grand Rapids game and is hoping
that it will hold up TO his expecta-
tons in the coming bout. The style
of play which has been used upon
the teams so far this season is not
expected to be of much use against
the heavy Furniture City eleven, and
