Referring to the game to-morrow the Greensburg Tribune of yesterday says: "Saturday aftei'noon the warriors of Greensburg high school will meet their first hard opponents when they go up against the Harrisburg Technical high school at the now athletic park.

This team comes to Greensburg almost unknown except that they have an enviable reputation and have defeated some of the best teams in the eastern part of the State. Their most recent victory was that of last Saturday when they defeated the strong team representing the Steelton high school. "The team which comes to Greensburg Saturday is almost a veteran aggregation. They last year played the Central high school of Harrisburg to a tie score and this team defeated the Johnstgwn team by almost the same Bcore as did the warriors of Greensburg high school. This is almost the only line that can be gathered on the team that will play here on Saturday.
