They made quite a rip last year by devouring the fierce Reading Tigers and holding the Wilkes-Barre Panthers to two touchdowns.

The Wolverines also flattened, the Frackville Buffaloes but met defeat at the hands of the Shenandoah Redjackets. Over-anxiousness and two bad plays caused the Redjacket defeat.

The West End Tigers, Class football champions of the lower anthracite region, will play Class football this year. The players have played together so long, and have added much more beef that their advent into a higher grade of competition will not stop them one iota. West End will bear watching this year. Marshallton, Shamokin's strongest representative, will come back for some more competition, while Centralia may and may not have a team.

The North End team, of this city, will also spruce up but it has not yet decided on what class 'of football it will play. There is not enough opposition in Class ranks, so Class will give them all they want. Marion Heights and Ashland will also have powerful Class teams, and with all this wealth of material ready for action, there is every reason to believe that football will have-a prosperous campaign in this section.
