Last Friday- "afternoon the McCook and Red Cloud High School fooV ball teams met on the Hedge field to con test for the honors of tbe game. 'I'll a frmt Av mlnntu nltrv tho TA Clond boys, after severaUine plunges Means 5th, Richard Larrick, and a forward pass made a touch down and kicked goal. Red Cloud kiokeH off 'to McCook and the latter made a few gains, after whloh McCook pulled off an illegal play, the ball was taken back and they were given another down. They thon made a forward pass and brought tho ball to Red Cloud's three yard line, where the referee ordered oue of the Red Cloud players out of the game for rough playing. After spending an hour chewing the rag the Red Cloud players lined up to play without the foresaid player and the referee blew his whistle, but the Mc Uook team refused to play. Thus they forfeited the game. In the estimation of mnny the Mo- Conk team did not play any cleaner game than the local boys and some of those from out of town, who were in attendance, who saw tbe McCook team play at Oberllu, Kansas, a few weeks ago ulalin that they attempted to Dull off the same dirty tactics there that they, did here Those who paid to see this game can see the game today by culling at the Powell & Pope Cafe, where a tree ticket will be given them. The Alnsley team which has not been defeated this year will meet the Red Cloud boys on tbe local gridiron this afternnou and it is to b. hoped that there will bo a large crowd pres ent. A refure" from Lincoln has beet) secured to ofllc'ate at this game. COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES (By Superintendent) " (A Few Words On Consolidation) By Prof. 0. W. Ncal of Stevens Point, Wis.
