JERSEY SHORE HIGH
DOWNS BELLEFONTE HIGH.
Jersey Shore 48, Bellefonte 0.
That, in brief, tells the result of |
Saturday's football game on Hughes
field, but it is not the whole of the
story by any means. Had coach
Nelson Huffman kept his first team
in play during the entire contest
they could easily have scored a
hundred, but when the game was,
cinched he run in second and third
string men so fast that it was im-
possible to keep track of the sub-
stitutions.
But it was no dishonor to Belle.
fonte to be beaten by Jersey Shore.
Most of the players had the hefti-
ness of college players, and they all
knew their football. The Bellefonte
team looked puny lined up against
their opponents. But notwithstand-
ing the odds against them every
man played to the limit of his abili-
ty and they have the consolation of
knowing that their defeat was at
the hands of a vastly superior team.
As to Jersey Shore, fullback,

COULIDOE Mr. Nonkis Cool-
idge, wife of the late Dr. J. W.
Coolidge, of Los Angeles, Cal, died
on Sunday, November 9th, as the
result of injuries sustained in an
automobile accident.
She was a daughter of Daniel and
Henrietta McGinley and was born
in Bellefonte seventy-three years
ago. She was educated in the pub-
lic schools of Bellefonte and for sev-
eral years was a teacher in the
grade schools. Following her mar.
riage to Dr. Coolidge they located
in Scranton where they lived quite
a number of years.
idge was instrumental
the Hahnnemann hospital of that
city. Some fifteen or twenty years!
ago they moved to Los Angeles,
Williamson starred as long as he
was in the game, making three of
the seven touchdowns. But we're
where Dr.
not going to play favorites, as every
man on the team played his part
of the game to perfection.
In the nine games played this
year Bellefonte’ has not scored a
single point. Defeated eight times,
with 801 points scored against them,
they did manage to hold Lewistown
to a scoreless tie.
So far as the team is concerned
it is now all over but the Thanks-
giving day game at Lock Haven.
By that time most of the cripples
on the team ought to be in shape
to play. Lock Haven is not so hot
this year and if Bellefonte can just
wallop them on turkey day it will
make up for all their defeats of the
season so far.
