Omaha High school alumni aro getting
down to real work in their efforts to
provide a game between the local school
and Oak Park High school ot Chicago
hero next Thanksgiving day. C. E. Reed,
director of athletics of the high school,
has announced that ho will communi
cate with the management of the Chi
cago school.
The alumni have conceived tho plan of
petitioning for subscriptions from alumni
of tho ecliool and business men of the
city, tho amount of tho subscription to
be accepted an payment for seats at tho
contest Tho expenses for such a game
would bo nbout 8300. If this amount Is
subscribed tho game will bo almost
a certainty.
For several years the Oak Park school
has won undisputed ln'tcrBcholasrtlc
championships of the United States and
a gatno hero with such n, school would
extend tho range of Omaha High school's
athlotto reputation. The alumni deem It
time for the school to extend Its athletic
aotlvltles beyond the narrow confines
of tho Missouri valley.
Tha subscription petitions will bo cir
culated In a day or two bo that by
March 1 tho alumni will know Just where
they stand. It the citizens of Omaha aro
reluctant for such a game, though
that Is not considered probable, tho
matter will he dropped. But IC the
game Is definitely contracted for tho sub
scriptions will bo collected, and the
money placed In a bank where it will
draw Interest until tho time arrives
for its use. At tho same tlmo additional
petitions will be circulated and tho
amount raised as far abovo 3500 aa pos
sible. The tickets will call for dollar
seats In tho best locations In the stands.
Edgar S. Morris, Wyman Bcebee,
Hugh Mills and several other prominent
alumni compose tho committee which
Is working on the proposition and they
havo received the enthusiastic support
ot such prominent foot ball fans as Tato
Matters, Lester Heyn and soveral
others. The Commercial club will bo
asked to assist In promoting the contest
as will tho University club and tho Ad
club.
