Gary high school has taken up soccer football to fill in the time between the close of the Rugby football season and the opening of the basket-ball season.

Soccer and basket-ball practice will be carried on at the same time. It was made possible to do this by the great number who have taken an In terest in athletics of late. There will be two soccer teams organized, one o high school students alone, the other mixed team. The high school soccer team' will first play the Interlaken school of La porte on Saturday, Dee. 2, at Laporte The Interlaken boys have played sev eral games this year, but nevertheless our boys are confident they will make good showing agaiuct them.
