The opening clash In the world's

first-half tltlcholders in the Penn State
League, will be j.lnge.1 this evening in
the Third Itrglment Armory. TInddou
avenue and Mlckle street. Camden.
The spacious drlllshed will be taxed
with n capacity crowd, and tho attrac
tion well warrants It, for those In nt
tendance will f.ee two of thi greatest
basketball machines ever assembled.
Camden has gone (hrough both halves
of the Eastern League in n veritable
canler. but the Skeeters will meet a
little tougher opponitlon this evening.
The "visitors" have class, seems it pe
culiar assertion. T'eculinr because
etery man except Aleck Harvey Is a
regular HaRtern Leaguer. Holtnan,
Hrilggr and Merlin n were with German
town and Ernie Iteich with Heading.
This quartet is certain to start, but
the fifth man Is not definitely decided
upon.
F.Imer ltinlej has been picked by
many, but the writer is of the bplnion
thnt Frank Hruggv will pin his faith to
Aleck Harvey. Itiplev is n star back
