Consitaring the revenue derived
annually from the public high school
football series and also the support
accorded It BY the public as well a.
the student bodies involved, It
would seem that the educators
would be appreciative.
On innumerable occasions the
school heads have been given their
chance to improve conditions, but
they have seldom seen Git to do so.
Probably one OF their most confus-
ing and unpopular strokes in years,
however, resulted yesterday when
without practically any notice what
ever the Business Western game
was presented at the Central Sta
dium.
MANY series followers who make
It q point to never miss q game,
were not advised OF this move. and
consequently failed to put in an ap-
spearance.
