The Bismarck H. S. foot ball team
journeyed to Irondale Wednesday eve
ming to play the team there. The
game was a walk-over for our boys,
the final score being 23-4 in our favor.
The Importance Of this victory was
considerably dimmed, however, when
the Caledonia team came here Thurs
day night and humbled our team on
their own court. The score at the
end of the first half was Cd in favor
of Caledonia. Despite the fact that
the home team played a hard and
fast game they succumbed to the Wis
itors, the final score being III. The
defeat of our team may be attributed
to the fact that Kettinger was unable
o play but a short time and the good
team work of the Caledonia players.
