CROWN POINT NEWS Chances Good For Team. Chances for a good high school football team are flattering this year and there seems to be plenty of material to pick from, last Friday at least 20 candidates showing up for practice. Many of the old players who starred on .last years team are still playing this year and from the new material Crown hopes to pick out a winning team. During a scrummage last Friday evening Walter Connell accidentally sprained his ankle and broke a small bone in his foot which will keep him from, playing football for some time. The team, will probably be organized the coming week and a regular schedule of games will be arranged. Crown Point hopes to win the championship this year. Have Narrow Escape. While Jim Hlldreth and a son of Dr, Ed Krost were driving a team of the Lathrop horses out to the Willowdale farm yesterday, the animals became frightened and turned the rig over, throwing both occupants to the ground, They then started on a run and did not stop until they reached the St. John half-way house, about 2 miles west of town. The horses were badly scratched from coming in contact with a barbed wire fence and quite a little injury was done to the buggy but not enough to delay the outfit from start ing their long overland trip to Fense cola, Fla., this morning. Ball Game a Batfest. The ball game between the Conte nental Casualty company team of Chi cago and the local team resulted in a victory tor the latter yesterday by a score of 14 to 12.

Chas. Lathrop started on his annual trip to his Tennessee and Florida prop eities this morning overland. Gerald Krost will accompany him and remain for two weeks previous to the opening of his school. Herman Underwood and Jim Hlldreth also go with the outfit and will probably remain all winter. The only accident that was -reported during the Woodmen's picnic was in the morning while the procession was marching around the public square, when Albert Meyer's delivery horse had not gone far, however, when he slip ped and fell thus saving many who were on the street at the time fro:a probable injury. . - . - .
