Afternoon for Strong Effort to End Defeat Streak Lost to Locals Years Now Last Year at Van Wert and Year Before on Delphos Field. Will Van Wert High be -able to break the jinx which the Red and White grid warriors have had on them for two years past? That is a question which has been agitating the fans of the two cities and which will be up for solution at the South Clay field Friday afternoon. In the early years of the rivalry between these two schools, Van Wert defeated the Delphos gridders with distressing regularity. For the past two years, however, they have been unable to turn the trick. In 1930, the Delphos forces won in a game played on the local field by a score of 13 to 0.

The game between the two teams was played at Van Wert last year and resulted in a 26 to 12 victory for Delphos. Speculation is rife now as to what will happen here Friday, The Delphos fans are hopeful in spite of the fact that the team here lost one of its star backfield men, Heck, through injury in the game at North Baltimore. They have full confidence in the ability of Coach Smith and his charges and the fine game played at Defiance would indicate that this confidence; is well placed. There is no real dope at hand 'by which to measure the relative strength of the two outfits. Van Wert played Versailles to a 0-0 tie.

last week. But the strength of the Drake county outfit is not known. Defiance is usually rated high and the showing the locals made there last Saturday is much to their credit. This PNEUMONIA IS CAUSE OF DEATH OF MRS. TEMAN Death Calls Mrs.
