SCHOOL NOTES

Item* tl Interest Regardinf the ReaeieUer Public School!

Miss Jennie Wore tel entered the Freshman class of the high school yesterday. She comes from Ohio. Misses Harris and Keith will see the Michigan-Wisconsin foot-ball game next Saturday at Marshall Field. Marion Pierson, who, has been sick for a week, is back in school. Our foot-ball team will line up next Saturday against the Hammond high school team at the Athletic Park. The Hammond team has not been defeated yet this year and a good game is assured. The impression is abroad that this will be an easy game but we think that the boys will have to work and work hard too. The game will be called at 3 o’clock. Admission 15 and 25 cents. It is needless to say that the high school was very well pleased with the result of Saturday’s game with Monticello. The first five minutes of play, we believe, decided the game. It looked at first as if Monticello would simply have a “walk away” but when our team held them on downs the first time the “spunk” of the Monticello team was gone. The boys played a good game, and the loyal, enthusiastic support of the rooters kept them constantly at their best. The game was interesting from start to finish. The score was 17-0 in favor of Rensselaer. The line up was as follows: Rensselaer. Monticello. Sheets R. E Mathews Collins. R. T Hamilton Hammerton R. G .Stockton Michaels C Teeter Hopkins L. G Stockton Kenton L. T Didlake Mills L. E Heath Parcels Q. B Gardner Gwin R. H. B Rammer McGregor L. 11. B. Gardner, (Capt.) Moody, (Capt.) ... ,F. B Tharp
