Hammond Making Effort to Get Conditioned Students in Team.

Hammond Times. Eligible candidates for the Hammond high school team are to be given examinations today, together with the few who were barred from the elevenearlier in the season because of deficient credits. These tests are to be severe, but impartial, and will cover all lines of study which the different men have covered. Changes in the line up are expected following the announcement of results. Among those of experience and reputation who will be given a chance to become eligible are Charles Vangilder, Harry Jones and William Phillips, veteran linemen; Earl Brussels and Wallie Hess, substitute half and quarter. Rensselaer will entertain the local team on their field next Saturday. As that city is a little south of the northern Indiana territory, the game will have no direct effect oh the championship struggle. Rensselaer is, however, a school with a reputation for fast and furious football, and it is predicted that the contest will be recorded in the season's record as a “classy exhibition."
