JACKSON GETTING
CRIMSON SQUAD
READY FOR PREDS
Howard Fans Well Pleased
With Showing Of Nine
Against the Barons
Last Wednesday

Howard supporters are well pleased
with the showing the team made against
the Barons last Wednesday. The gal
Crimson nine showed that the old fight
was still existant.
The squad has been without the serv-
Ices Of an experienced coach this season
and the ascension in the third round was
probably due to the absence of some mas
ter hand to steady the wavering defense.
Much credit is due Captain jackson for
the fight that he has injected into the
new men. The scrappy little leader is
brimful OF that old never-give-up spirit
