Neigh, Neb., Oct. 1S.-Special to The News: The Neigh high school football team made it the third sue cessive victory by defeating the Madison boys Saturday afternoon at River side park by score of q to 0. The game was far more interesting than the score would indicate, and was considered the best played all around so far this season. The visitors eXcelled the home eleyen- in weight, but were powerless in checking the end runs and terrific speed brought about by three of the Neigh players. Fifteen and twenty minute halves were played. The home boys secured fifteen points in the first half and six in the second. 1t is expected that Neigh will play Wisner next Saturday at their own grounds, and Atkinson will be here for the Thanksgiving game.
