SCHOOL FOOTBALL
SQUAD NOW FAST
ASSUMING SHAPE

Central Unions football squad is
fast rounding into shape, under the
I strenuous program which Coach
Armstrong has mapped ont for this
week, and indications are. that
una High is in for hard scrap
on the local gridiron Saturday af.
: tcruoOn
Unfortunately, the sale of season
tickets has not lJiowed the pace
Of the football squad, and there are
plenty Of the pastcboards in stock.
The team is due the support of the
ri tcntrO residents, and it is hop
ed that the mex; lew days will
show big jump in the sales. The
business man who is too busy to
take care of this matter, had better
! come out to the game Saturday af-
ternoon, and the students will then
see that he buys a season ticket.
10 get back to the squad, the
boys are slowly acquiring the speed
which Coach Armstrong believes is
essential to a good football eleven.
with So much green stock on hand,
; there IS plenty of fumbling and cor
rectIon OF this fauls is beng given
, full attention. The coach belIeves
I that as soon as the squad gets ac-
customed to the feel OF the foot
ball, funbling will be reduced to
Il minimum. The acquisition of
speed is the all important thing
just now, and the boys are being
driven to it, Also, they are respond
ing. the coach states.
The jinX tried to settle on the
squad Monday night when Max
well. end on the b. team, sus.
tanned bad hand. The injury is
not serious one, but is sufficient
to keep Maxwell away from prac-
tice for at least two weeks, much
to his disgust. If there are no more
serious injuries than that everyone
Will be happy at Central.
There is real need for n bin at
tendance at the game Saturday, not
; only because Yuma High is sending
over a large gang of rooters, but to
give the local squad good send off
I lor The first game OF the season.
! l he attendance should not be limit
ed to students, nor to parents of
! those who are on the squad. The
whole town should get out, the way
the folks do in Brawley, Holtvile
and Calexico when their teams play.
/ Season tickets can be obtained
: from amy student or at the high
school. They cover all athletic
events for the school wear.
