SPIECTATOR 23 the Sophomores and Freshmen are recognized. As it takes from one to two years to develop a player, we must depend on the juniors and Sophomores for next year's team, these classes having had candidates out for football since enter- ing school. Manager Speck has arranged one of the most attractive schedules which our High School team has ever had. Since the team takes but one trip this year and has at home two very attractive games, the Greensburg and Harrisburg games, a very successful season is expected. As many students as possible should arrange to accompany the team to Connells- ville this year, where we will play one of our hardest games. This game is scheduled for the eighteenth of October and will be well contested. The Greensburg game this year will be the big game of the season, and many Greensburg rooters are expected to come with the team. As those who went to Greensburg last year will remember the cordial treatment accorded us by the Greensburg management, we hope they will co-operate with us in making this day pleasant. Manager Speck has arranged the following schedule: October 4-Latrobe. October ll+Uniontown. October 18-At Connellsville. October 25-Harrisburg. November 1. November 8. November 15-Greensburg. November 22. November 27. School News T The Agassiz Association will be organized again this year. Anyone interested in nature work of any kind, whether he has had any instruction or not, is cordially invited to join. The annual fee is twenty-five cents.

VVith our new coach, Mr. Scmidt, with plenty of material, and with the spirit now existing, we may expect a very good team. Sixty candidates reported for practice on the first day. While there are but Captain Suppes and Wertz of last year's team in school, yet the quantity and quality of the new material insures us a team which will be equally as fast, though not so heavy, as the team of 1912, and which will surely live up to its record. The Seniors and Juniors have the greatest number of men out for positions, though
