Haner left center to take right end, Page taking the position hc vacated. Dallen Runnner was put i11 at left end. Through tl1e infiuence of the records Illallfj i11 the past two seasons York was Ullilblfbll to get games with Lincoln Ztlld Omaha. Tl1e prestige of the High School o11 tl1e gridiron was becoming a settled fact. T Tl1e season was started witl1 a victory over Grand Island. This made five games won from the boys fl'Ol11 the Island. It was played early and the Weather warm. This as well as the 1l161'lt of tl1e Gr. I. boys kept the score down. Much l1ad been heard of Fremont and finally a date with them was secured. They had a good little team, but they did 110t rank in York's class. They were out- played as well as outweighed. The following week the team went to play Belwood at David City. This was a tea111 collected from Belwood a11d vicinity and included many players I11l1Cl1 heavier than our team. Tl1e ga111e was fiercely played and resulted i11 a tie score. -Hebron was tl1e next O11 the list. This trip was one to be remenibered and 0116 wl1icl1 is always a pleasure to re- call. The treatment received by the players was above reproach. Tl1e game was easily won. November 10, is a white star 011 our blue background. That was the day that Omaha lowere1l her colors to 11s. lt was through a lucky goal 'l:l'01ll field that Omaha was eilahled to make the showing she did.

With a superior team York was defeated. If ever there was such a thing as ba1l luck Yo1'k surely ha1l an over supply of it on this occasion. The score was close and the play- ing hard Etllll it was Olllly' 2401110 tllllli after till! gltlllli that the boys coul1l realize they l1a1l lJGl5Il beaten, but even this defeat C2111 almost be COllIllZ0il a victory. The 140218011 this year was closed with a trip to Grand Island. Tl1e team played against a tiiitlll composed of only a small per ce11t of high school IIIOII. Tl1e referee also played for Grand Island. This game 1loes 11ot deserve 1I1llCll mention, but sufiice to say that when the referee decided to call tl1e ga111e 011 account of darkness tl1e official score differed fl'OII1 the general opinion. Tl1e team that played through tlliS 503.5011 had lJCOI1 through excitement and Work of three seasons and was a EGHIII Wl1iCl1 could be relied O11 to uphold the l1o11or of tl1e SCTIOOT successfully. Tl1e season of 1900 was tl1e season ill which Mr. Atkinson made his appearance as manager. Through his eflicient services the team succeeded in securing tl1e schedule it did. His financial aid was also greatly ap- preciated by the boys.
