GENESEO HIGH
PLAYING TODAY
At DAVENPORT
Team Has Been Put Through Hard
Drill Following Defeat at Rock
Island Last Week.
Especial Correspondence

Geneseo, H.. Oct. S.-Coach Prt
lit OF the Township high scho5S
took the football team to Daven-'
port this noon on the 1916 train.
After the disc0uraging showing
which the Geneseo boys made at
Rock Island Saturday the ONLY
hope that is entertained is that
decided improvement will be shown
today. Davenport has an older ami
heavier team and should prove %
be an easy winner. Gustafson, who
was put in at center at Rock Is
land to replace Beckstein, has con-
tinued to display a spirit and dash
which has pleased Coach PruitI.
GustafsOn is light in weight but
is a freshman who will greatly i'm
prove with another seasons wor6.
If Wiesjahn. the two Schultzes ami
Combs do anything in line with
their ability the team should go
into the remainder of the schedule
and win most of its games.
4 week from today Geneseo meets
Kewanee at kewanee. Their next
home game comes on Oct. Is, with
East Moline.
