  THE GRIDIRON FIELD Paris High team will make the journey to Somerset next Friday to meet the Somerset High School team. The Pulaski county boys are reputed to be husky set of grid iron warriors, but if the Paris players continue to put up the same excellent brand of playing that they showed in the Newport game, they ought to take Somerset into camp. After leading the mighty Centre College Colonies to 0 in the first half of their annual foot ball bat tie, the University of Kentucky Wildcats Saturday afternoon failed to keep up the terrific pace. The Colonies smashed their way across the Blue and White goal line four times in the final periods and won i27 to 3. The contest was waged before a gathering of gridiron fans which overflOwed StOll Field. The valiant band of Wildcats played the great Centre team off it’s feet during the first and second quarters, making seven first downs to the Danville teams two. The Paris High School team, in the game played on Hancock Field Friday afternoon with the Newport High School team, proved them selves an invincible organization, and justified the faith of their followers in the selection of James Clay Ward as coach. Paris made two touchdowns and kicked the goal each time. The touchdowns were made by Tucker and Capt. Taylor, while Tucker kicked each of the goals. Paris in this game dis played the best team work they done this season. There were no bright particular stars in the game, the whole team playing as one, and all seemed to be doing their level best to make the victory a notable one. And it was, the final score standing IA 10 0. Anderson, of Georgetown. refereed the game, with Arnsparger, umpire, and Link, head lineSman.
