Morocco and Kentland tied in their football contest last Saturday, neither side scoring. This is the third year these two towns have tied. Tomorrow Kentland will play Crown Point.

They must defeat West Lafayette tomorrow and then get in prime condition for Sheridan. They have & hard schedule this year but they have a mighty fine team and are getting in excellent condition.
