TECH SURPRISES
CAGE FOLLOWERS
By Defeating Steelton High on
Felton Hall Floor Last
Night
f
Technical High school quintet pull
ed the surprise of the season last
night by defeating tho Steelton High
school live in a Central Pennsylvania
League contest, played on the Felton
Hall floor. The final score read 18
to 16.
Coach Miller used a changed line
tip and it worked wonders, displaying
more pep and ginger than has been
shown by a Tech team thla season.
"Bud" Lingle, the freshman player,
was given a chance to show his wares
and while ho did not figure in the
point getting, he played an aggres
sive floor game, being in nearly every
scrimmage. His playing was a big
factor in the excellent teamwork of
the Tech team.
Defensive Play Featured
Roth teams played a close guard
ing game and there was little chance
for scoring throughout the contest.
Tecli featured in strong defensive
platylng and in the first period held
Steelton to a lone field toss, while the
Teen players scored two. The half
ended with the score at 8 to 7 in fa
vor of Tech.
The score was tied at 16 with but
one minute to play in the last period.
Both teams covered close, but a short
time before the whistle Harris found
an opening and poked the ball through
the net from the side of the cage.
The toss won the game for the local
lads. The summary:

will come to the Orpheum. Monday
evening, March 12. as a star in the role
of Claire la Tour, the star of the Thea
ter Varieties in Paris. The authors
of "Follow Me" are Felix Dormann and
Leo Ascher and that they have supplied
Anna Held with a role that tits her as
artistically as do her numerous gowns,
goes without saying. The part which
Anna Held will enact is that of a vi
vacious actress, one Claire la Tour, of
the Theater Varieties in Paris.
