The curtain will be rung down
on. the, 1922 football season ut
South Side Park this afternoon,
when the Fairmont High School
gridders meets the Victory High
School eleven of Clarksurg. The
two teams are evenly matched
with a slight margin in favor Of
the locals.
Washington. Irving High Of
Clarkshurg defeated Victory by q
two point margin in a hard fought
game played at Clarksburg a few
weeks ago. 1t will be remembers
ed that the Fairtnont team won a
hard earned victory over WASH
ington Irving by a small margin.
Unless. the dope bucket is given
another severe kick the local lads
should win by one or two touch
downs.
Coach Frank Ice had his boys
out to, the parH yesterday after
noon and ran. them through a
long signal drill. A number OF
new plays which Coach Ice has
been working out during the sea-
son were tried out at tile signal
drill yesterday and will be sprung
for the tlrst time today.
The Nictoryttea is coached By
Jimmie Heavier an old West Vir.
ginla Wesleyan and West Vir-
ginta University star gridder and
has made q good record SO far
this season. Coach HeaYner has
pointed his team for the game this
afternoon in an effort to beat the
team that beat his local rival
the Washington Irving team and
thereby wipe out some OF the
stain Of the defeat OF his team
by Coach Hite's men. 7
Eleven members OF the Fair
mont high sqIlad that will prob
ably take part in the game today
will be playing their last game for
the local school as they all gra-
dhate next spring. Among the
players who finish this year arc,
Captain Reich, Niche, Straight,
Cole, Parrish, Hawkins, Esketh,
Lafferty, Crowl and Ross.
Following the Thanksgiving
holidays an inter-class basketball
