My sleep was broken and I suffered continually from nervousness.

1 The Fourth Down By Willie Punt The Yellow Jackets had the old fight last night and things are looking more rosy. Every member of the squad showed a willingness to do his best. As long as they do this, D. H. 8. is bound to have a good football team. The off.m-'c of tne Yellow Jackets showed a nr: •mp.-ovement iu the scrimmage with tl.e Catholic nigh toys yesterday evening. They hit the line hard, skirted the ends nicely and forward passed for long gains. The line opened up nice holes most ’ cf the time. too. Tho defense was weak yesterdayj evening. The Catholic backs tore through the line for substantial gains, j But the linemen were fighting and asj long as they do this, they will improve. Tho D. C. H. S eleven is fall of fpht. A 1 * iciigl, the Yellow Jackets scored on them a few times yesterday even’ng, they were in the gnme all the time and succeeded in making first down at least three times. Fort Wayne Central plays at Bluffton Saturday. On present dope, Bluffton is due for another defeat. Bluffton isn’t saying much, though. 1 so maybe they are taking a new j lease on life and planning to spring a surprise. If it weren't for the fact that Rich rnond high has always had a formidable eleven each year for some time, we would be getting worried for fear they didn't have a team down at the Wayne county scat this fall. We haven't heart a murmur coming from that direction. “Boots” Rex was back in a uniform last night, holding down the center position for the Yellow- Jackets. And Boots was doing good work there, too Deane Dorwin, basketball captain, was out in a football suit last night too. Although green at the game, Deane hopes to be of some value in helping to turn out a winner for D. H. 8. Fine spirit, Deqne. LET'S BEAT ANDERSON. All kinds of fine meats at bottom prices.
