MANkATO FAVORED WIN
GAME THURSDAY
stiff Schedule Of District Games 10
Facing Coach Todnem's
Football Team

Blue Earth high school will be
the next opponent OF the Manka-
TO high school football eleven-tne
two teams meeting on the Manka-
to gridiron Thursday, November !.
The contest will be the fourth dis
trlct game played by Mankato and
the sixth OF the season.
All Of the games left on the. Man
kato schedule are district con-
tests and will decide to a great ex
tent the chances of Mankato being
a claimant to state honors, Roches-
ter which was considered one Of the
strong teams in the state was elm
mated from the race last Saturday
when they were defeated by the
OWatonna team by q score Of rs to
O. ~
The game Thursday will be tho
last chance Mankato fans will have
Oh seeing the local team in action
on the home field. The remaining
games on the schedule will be play
ed away from home. Although any
one Of the remaining games on the
schedule may prove to be a surprise
for the Mankato team, the done
at this date favors Coach Todnein's
team going through the season un-
defeated.
Blue Earth was defeated last
Saturday by Fairmont by a score of
~ 70 o. They were held to a tie by
Winnebago which was defeated by
Albert Lea by a 10 to 0 score. leay-
ing the dope strongly favoring Man
kato to win by a fairly large score.
Mankato came out of the Albert
Lea game In splendid shape. At no
time during the game was time
taken out because OF injuries to the
Mankato team. 1t is probable that
Coach Todnem will save his reg
uJars as much as possible in the
game against Blue Earth to be sure
his strongest lineup will be avail
able for the game on the following
Saturday against Rochester.
