    3. BEDFORD WEEKLY MAIL BEDFORD, INDIANA FRIDAY, OCT. 12, 1900 Bedford 0, Salem 0. The Bedford High School foot ball team and 10 rooters went to Salem Saturday to play the High School team at that place. It was a good game for the Bedford boys, as it showed them where they are weak. The Salem team was much heavier than Bedford's. Both sides were weak in team play, but Bedford had the better. Lee PERCISE, Captain and Left Half, was the star man for Salem. Bedford was prevented from scoring twice, at the end of each half, by the call of time. At the end of the first half she had the ball ½ foot from Salem's goal and only a yard in the second half, while the closest Salem came to scoring was the 30 yard line. BAILEY and JUDAH were the stars for Bedford. The former had never seen a foot ball game, but the way he carried the ball one would have thought he had played for years. The same teams will play here the 10th of November. Washington plays here Oct. 20.
