REMEMBER THE FOOTBALL

It Is tru e th a t baseball Is th e n a

know how to play it than know how
to play any o th e r outdoor sp o rt in
th is cun try. y e t it is also tr u e th a t
football is th e biggest gam e of the
year in nearly all of our schools and
collleges. B ut a t th is tim e of the
year it occupies the big place In th e
sport world.
I t is no easy th in g for a h igh school
th e size of ours to tu rn out a c re d it

T he boys ¡have won th e ir first'
game and will play th eir second to

P erhaps you never played football,
but if you will come out and see th is
game we believe you will learn to en
joy th e game. If you have played
it you will need no invitution.
The boys and th e ir coach have
worked hard to get in shape for th is
game. They rep resen t both th e high
school and com m unity. Good a th le t.

school, b ut are of considerable ad

you look at it you should be on the
side lines to root for the home team
