The coming season will undoubtedly be the best football season the school has experienced. While no schedule has yet been made, Mr. Godwin ie in receipt of communications from Stanford, Berkeley, Eugene, Forest Grove and the soldiers of Vancouver, while the papers announce that the Reliance team will visit Oregon and hopes to get a game with Chemawa. Many other teams will likely be heard from later. No agreement has yet been reached as to terms, but the games are pending and it is certain Chemawa will be kept busy. All the old players are expected back and an improvement over last year's team is hoped for.
