OUR NEXT BEST PIG SKIN CHASERS. DID you see us on the other page? If not, look again. We arc the first—the second—the first second team to break through the line of yearly drawbacks. When it comes to grit and determination we are right there. It is with mingled joy and pride, with a conglomeration of bruised arms and battered shins that we hang out our record of numerous victories and one little defeat. Read on. Was it the first game that you asked us about? Well, we were game; but really, we wouldn’t have done a thing to the Westports if they hadn’t changed rules on us. As it was, the score was only six to five. The next side-splitting contest was with the Beacon Hill team. Here we got tied up, as the score was five to five. Ah, how sweet is revenge! In the second game with Westport we knew we were up against the real thing. Here’s where we cheated the barbers and the dentists. We beat these undefeated champions by a score of seventeen to six. Our fame preceded us, and a trail of glory followed. Only two more teams dared to tackle us and they tackled too high. The Brooklyn’ Heights were downed two to nothing; and the Kansas City, Kansas, jays had surely seen better days before they swallowed that score of twelve to nothing. Thus endeth the career of one mighty. In all the Annuals of Time will our names be forever remembered. The Second Football Team.
