dead as a result of Sundays storm

fears that the total death roll might

lived where are many victims.

HIGH SCHOOL
r To PLAY TODAY
II
Local Football Squad to Meet
West End BeIgianS
4 y at Wells St.

A practice game with the West
End Belgians has been arranged for
the high school football squad. this
afternoon. Coach Mueller is anxi-
oUs 20 see the local team take part
IN a real game and has accordingly
contracted for this afternoons con-
test. which will be played on the
Wells 81. gridiron.
Friday afternoon saw the local
team in the first real scrimmage OF
the season. and although there are
many kinks in the eleven that will
stand strait tightening. Coach Mueller
IS well satisfied with the showing by
the men.
A few minutes Of signal practice
was held after which the first squad
was given the ball with orders 10
tear up the scrubs The varsity
lined up as follows: A. Phillion, left
end, Montine left tackle; earns,
left guard: Lambiotte. center; Gage.
right guard; Freehauf. right tackle,
and Edgal. right end. In the back
field Seltzer held down the quarter
back job. While Jones, Brady, ana
Arnt played the positions Of left
half. full back and right half back,
respectively
What seems 20 be one Of the big
problems Of the new coach. Is 20
develop a forward passing combina-
tion that will prove successful Al
though the first squad easily made
gains on line plunging and end runs.
any attempt at forward pass was
repeatedly spoiled and several times
the scrubs succeeded In intercepting
what should have been a successful
pass.
with only two weeks remaining
until the South Bend game, Coach
Mueller is pushing the men TO their
limit and IL is expected that this
afternoons game will go q long way
I'm exposing the weak points OF the
team.
