and most important srialrou eames
OF the season the contest with In
Salle-Peru High school. were started
last night at King fold whom Coach
Smith sent his red and white material
through q very severe test aa the
initial workout for the clash. ON uCN'

unravel their wares before what IS oN-
pected to- be a record breaking attend
ance and against the la Sallo-ferU
gridiron players I'm a battle that viii

ball.
No doubt the crafty Coach Fa'aws
of the maroon and green squad lus
been saving all of his best material /
for the big game and it is rum0reJ .
that he has already devised a clever /
means Of attack against Smiths war /
riors Last year the La Sale quad I
came TO this city and walked all over
the local team but next Friday the /
Ottawans will seek revenge for the .
trOuncins they were given
Beat La Sale is the slogan that
stands firm in the minds of every OF
tawa football player and supporter
Smiths men went through % test last
night that was very much admired
Each and every player got down to
brass tacko and throughout this week
viii grind themselves into shape
Smiths defense is fully developed. but
he will put the finishing touches to
ii this week He is brushing up q few
plays that he gave the lads last Week
and which he has withheld from play
so far. The attack will no doubt
prove a big surprise and a very valua-
BILE means in the attempt to defeat La
Sale.
Clyde Dougherty. Smiths midget /
quarter back, may possibly be out of {
the affair unless he gets his index I'm
ger on his right hand into shape by f
the day OF the game. In Saturday, / a
contest with Morris D0uehcrty broke ,
his finger and since then it has been r
causing him considerable trouble
Should he he ont Of the affair Smith
will be forced to depend ON the sary

player as Dougherty Nevertheless
he is q sure man on the defense
