to give Wentworth good beat

all wrong as dope sometimes

one of the best gridiron battles
ever fought in Lexington.
The scene at the field was in
spring to both young and old.
The Mexico cadets with their
band occupied a section Of the
south bleachers, while the w. M.
A. cadets were banked on the
north side of the field. The yells
from both sides rose in crescen-
do back and forth in friendly
rivalry and fine sportsmanshiE

as well as upon the field. A nice
compliment was paid each to the
other whenever either's schoo
song was played or sung, by
standing uncovered to the last
note.
Mexico's team came on Sun
day and were quartered at Nor
Y ris' Hotel. The battalion cam,

fine appearance, were well set
