minary in the Metcalf cup series
and the big game wiz start promptly
at s o'clock.
Petersburg comes to Bennington
with a good record and the game Sat
urday evening should prove fully as
interesting as the clash two weeks
ago with the Berlin five. Petersburg
has won and lost a game to Berlin,
has broken even with the Garuets Of
Troy and has defeated the Cambridge
team that played at the gym a week
ago There will probably be no
change in the Bennington lineup
There WI be added seating accommo-
dations at the last game.
The Legion FIVE goes to Berlin this
afternoon TO play a return game with
the home team.
