Due to the uncertainty at t beginning of the season; cou plet vitli the illness of Mr. Man glia. , the Blakely coach, a full schedule was not completed. In fact, NOTIC E To reduce our stock, we offer the following at a very low price. Oid Beck, Jr., d* I ICI Collars 'P ’ • 1 -'I old Beck on Collars Back Bands 'l C J going for • J J Also reduced prices on Aluminum, Tin and Glass ware. R. D- HALL ! the schedule so far was largely the ■work of Chas. Tarver, the manager |of the Blakely Hi football squad. | Desperate efforts were made to get a Thanksgiving game, but the manage ment found full schedules. This year i it is lioped to present a full schedule ,! for the 1925 gridiron season before ! the close of school. Blakely began to support the team and evince more interest in the game than in former i 1 years, and it is the intention of the ; local team to play at least half of ; the football games in Blakely next year. The past season was by no moans! • 1 a poor one for the “Bob Cats.’’ They ! played eight games, 5 away and > at homo. Blakely Hi played entire-' ; ly out of her class with every U :;m| except Donalsqnville. This state-j nient is made with reference io tno: cities where the high schools were t located. Dothan. Albany, Dawson ! and Eufaula are all much larger j towns than Blakely, while Newton In stitute is a Junior College at New ton, Ala. Dothan Hi defeated Blakely Hi 18 to 0. in a former game Blakely i went down 48-0. Eufaula Hi got the game in Eu fauli 7-0. Blakely HI never has felt j good about that game. I Donalsonville was smothered in ' Blakely 90-0 and later easily defeat led on their own grounds 19-0. j With a 70-0 defeat ringing in their 1 ears from last year, the Bob Cats j went to Albany and held the Albany Indians to a 14-6 score and really ■ outplayed the Albany boys during ; the first half of the game. Lack oi : ■ practice was an item here. I Bainbridge beat Blakely last year i 44-0. This year it took all they > could do to make ar extra touch l down, the score being 14-7. • j The Boh (tats really played their | best game against Newton Insti : j tute and won 6-0. A scoreless tie ; tute and won 6-0. i A scoreless tie was the result o' l the game with Dawson, with a weak . ened team. The season stands: Played 8, won 3, lost 4, tied 1. The big item to w hich the Blakely boys point with pride Is that while they lost 1 games, no team was able to run away with a game, Dothan Hi piling up only IS points, the larg est score made on them. Their goal line was never crossed on their i home grounds. x SHORT FOOTBALL NOTES. The Georgia Freshmen defeated the Florida Freshmen at Bainbridge last | Saturday 29-13. A crowd of o\ er 3000 ' j people saw the game. The football squad of the Blakely j High School w ill hold a banquet at i the lunch room of the high school ■on the first Tuesday in December. At this meeting a captain and man ager will be chosen for ihe 1925 team. The football boys of the Blakely Hi are turning in their equipment. This will be carefully stored away for next season. All of this and some , additional uniforms will be needed for the big squad of 1925 and it is hoped to add a tackling dummy and dumping bags. The Bob Cats should present a really championship outfit next year, since they lose only two regulars and three subs from the present team, and the prospects of a large bunch of new material is very bright.
