Penn On to Sunbury, is the battle cry at tne William Perm High School, with the Penn team facing Sunbury High School at that place tomorrow alternoon at 2.30.

While the Penn team is way out front in the 12 year series, win ning nine games, losing two and tying one, it looks like a tough alternoon for the Tigers tomor row. Penn started the game with lour new in the lineup against Meeiton, and at least one or two jQther new lads will be given a chance in the Sunbury Sourbeer is slated tc start at fullback where he has been practicing the" past week. He is a hard running back, and the coaches are expecting good results from this change. Floyd Mummert is again hors de combat with an injured rieht hand, and it may be that he will not see much action prior to the ihanksgivmg battle. With Cirillo, Snyder and Sour beer the Tiger backfield, only Bob Kutz remains of the bail carriers who played the first half of the season.

1 John Harris John Harris will attempt to keep its slate clean tomorrow afternoon when its football warriors meet Williamsport Fager Field at 2.30 o'clock in an important East Central Conference game. Coach Rote's eleven has won all of its conference games so far this season with the 'exception of Bethlehem, which game resulted in a scoreless tie. Coach Purcell's Billtowners have almost an identical record only they have played three conference tilts instead of four. They won two of these and tied with Sunbury 6 6. The game tomorrow afternoon will be an important contest for both teams inasmuch as there is very little difference between the two in the league standing at the present time.

The upriver combination has been reported as a very fast and snappy aggregation well trained by the aerial route in smooth passing. Steelton Coach Nels Hoffman polished. his Steamroller gridiron machine yesieraay alternoon in prepara tion for. the invading Lancaster High School team tomorrow on Steel ton's Cottage Hill Field. A short, snappy signal drill fol lowing a skull session where the offense and defense of the Red Rose Club was outlined by Coaches Hoffman and Charlie Hoy found the Blue and White srjuad in excellent shape and primed for its second Bie Fifteen test.

Preparing for. any kind of weather, the squad left the warm, dry field house and splashed up and down the field executing their ays with machine like precision the heavy downpour failed to dampen their enthusiasm. The game is scheduled for 2.30 'clock. Officials announced by 'acuity Manager Guy A. Koons will be: W.

E. Nitrauer. referee: A. Doremus, umpire, and C. A.

Ambrose, head linesman. Catholic High Catholic High School will play host to Altoona Catholic this The Altoona warriors will ar by special train this evening 6.30 o'clock, accompanied by the high school band. The visitors will be met at the station by a delegation of the Catholic High School Boosters Association together with the high school band, after which the entire group will parade to the football field. Coach Farina appears to have his bbyc in tip top shape, for this mportant game that means so much in the Catholic Conference, i Scholastic Games South Pennsylvania Conference Grid Race Mechanicsburg High School, defending champion, will attempt to retain its hold on first place in the Southern Pennsylvania Scholastic Conference football race when the Steel and Maroon grid ders oppose a well coached Get tysburg eleven at Mechanicsburg Saturday afternoon in the more important of the two league scraps to be held. In another conference fracas Dutch Eby's improved Carlisle combination will clash with Coach Brittain's Hershey outfit at Her shey in a game which will have no bearing on the standings of the first division clubs.

Snapper Rines' Chambersburg Blue Devils, the team that looks the toughest, will face a breather in Scotland Industrial School at Chambersburg in a non league tussle. Shippensburg's Greyhounds have an open Hanover tackles Columbia at Columbia to night under the floodlights, in a non league fuss. Mechanicsburg Gettysburg Leading the pack by fifty points, Coach Johnny Fredericks Mechanicsburg outfit needsa victory over Gettysburg to' retain its grip on first place in the schoolboy circuit but the Steel and Maroon warriors face their stiffest oppon ent to date in Gettysburg. Mechanicsburg's conference record is a tie with Hershey and a win over Hanover, while Gettys i burg dropped its only conflict to the powerful Chambersburg Blue Devils. Carlisle Hershey In what appears to be an evenly matched fight, Carlisle and Her shey will meet at Hershey in a contest which will have no effect on the standings of the first divi sion clubs.

Carlisle's league record to date shows one reversal while Hershey held Mechanicsburg to a scoreless tie in its only conference Carlisle lost one of its fleet backs this week because; of the P. I. A. A. age limit rule.

Paul Nicholson, a star back for nearly three years, played his final game against New Cumberland last Saturday and his loss is a severe blow to Coach Dutch Eby, whose re placement will be lightweight Jack Horn. Chambersburg The Chambersburg Blue Devils; high scoring football machine, roll ing up 118 points to 7 in tnree games, will meet what should be an easy club when the Blue and White eleven tackles Scotland Industrial School, at Chambersburg.

Despite the loss of Howard Heidt, their flashy backfield mite, the cadets feel sure that their fourth straight victory is looming. Because of losing to Carson Long last year by a tricky play, Tressler Orphans'' Home will probably be in there with concentrated intent.

Captain Charles Taylor who has beeir changed from guard to tackle; Boettner who replaced Taylor's guard position; flashy ends; and a back field of J. Taylor, Imbt, Stube, Davies and Glauberg have a click that should show T. O. H. some flashy football.

This is Boettner's first year of varsity football he hails from Butler, Pa. His father was a captain in the famous Pennsylvania State Police of several years ago. Coach Noll has been training his men further in their passing and their aerial combination of Davies to Birckhead and LaPorte should mount the score The Carson Long Junior Varsity, today will share the gridiron with New Bloomfield's varsity squad.

VP) To all intents and purposes, Babe Ruth is through with baseball and vice versa (at least for the time You hear talk and rumors that the big fellow quit coaching i job with the Brooklyn Dodgers to land another spot, possibly a man agerial berth in the American Association. But right now you can take the Babe's word for it, he has no immediate prospects of a return to the game he pulled lo million dollar heights, and which did the same for him. "Not me'," he said yesterday. nothing to those reports. "All I'm interested iu these days is hunting and fishing and maybe some more golf.

I'm going to do all the things a young guy does to keep from growing old." Of course, there's always the possibility that when' the major and minor league meetings roll 'round, or when the spring arrives with its call to another diamond campaign, the Babe may heed the "call of the wild." Acting on the theory that where there's smoke there's fire, he might land in Milwaukee, as has been hinted, or in Montreal, where Rabbit Maranville was fired last year, or it is even conceivable the big leagues can find a spot for the Bam." But when you talk to him as he gets ready for a trip into the woods with his rifle and his rod, you get the idea Ruth is holding nothing back. West Shore Rangers Meet Roamers A number pf new records will this week's program will set a set by the West Shore Polo new mark in chis respect Club teams Sunday when they participate in the round robin tournament with Carlisle' Polo Club on the Sports Writers' Day program at Camp Hill. Each year for the past four years, new season attendance rec ords have been set and this year. with three or four more games to go, the turnstiles must click less than one hundred times to break the old mark of 25.175. This is one record to go by the boards on Sunday.

Twentyfive home games is all the local club could play in past seasons but this year, that many games have already been played on the Camp Hill greensward and The Roamers last Sunday set! a new high mark in scoring for) a season when they pushed their total to 137 goals, five more than jthey scored last year. However, the Roamers have already played in 25 games this season, two more than they have ever played in one season before. Playing a stiffer schedule each year, the Rangers have dropped below their marks of 1936, their peak year when they played twenty eight games, scored 201 goals and won all but four of those tilts. The Rangers have no chance of winning twenty four games this year but the Roamers have already surpassed their pre DUCK BREECHES Rubberized Seat and Knee WOOL BREECHES HIKING SHOES Well Fitting 14 Inch SPORT BOOT Oil Tanned 10 inch Rubber Laced BOOT Heavy Duck Coat. $3 87 Breeches or Pants $1.69 Double scat and double knees, heavy weight.
