H 1 ± 1 m 1 [ € k Wliilc tlu ' football season ot lUi:! closed with Great Falls hokliiii; t ' iii l place in the state, the teams that dr t ' eated her stain! in a clas., 1) then: selves. Although Great FalU did tar h ' ss than we hoped she woukl. we cannot hut teei that in some res])ects footliall for tin vear of i ' -H ' -l wa not a Itoi rt her a lail- nre. It is n(d to he deiucd that mncii more couhl have heen done had we had a good second team to pra(dice w.Im ;ind work the nnii into condition. Mnh of tile time there were not enough men out to make up a second team. This eim tlition must he (i ' eiconn ' hefoi ' e (Irea: trails can ho])e to have a (■ham]ii( nslii team. We mn-t gel em, ugh ont ddr siippoit to raise monev enough to lm. suits for the second team men. It is hard to Maine the s ■cdnd team men for not coming ont when they an md furnished with a snit ami tiie only reward they get for tlndr work is the har l l)nmps given them l y I hi ' -tronger first te.im men. This year ' s team was stionger than last year ' s in nearly every |poiiU of the game. The interference wa- nuich hd- tei ' than last yeai ' : tin ' line hucking was better, and the foiward pa.ss work- el ill every g: it was tried, while la-i year it a- scllnni used. The team mll ha e done iiuuli Itet- tci- if there had been more op|)ositiun so that the men wlm lid make the fir.st team Wdiilil lia ( ' had in wnrk lianler an 1 train belter in order to hold tli ir positions. .Next year ' s team ought to he stronger than this yeai ' .-. because th ' hack fiidd will lose but one man and only two men will be 1 SI from the line. These va. an- cles can easily be filled with the men who pla cd on the seeoin! te.im tlil A car. The tir t game of t ' .ie season was played agaiiist the iiozenrin High S.
