This was the hardest game that Camp Hill' has had this Beason and all the girls far excelled their previous playing. Although the game was lost as far as the score Is concerned, yet considering that Penn Hall Is above high school class and that they were state champions last year, the game was not an entire defeat. Penn Hall made their great gain in scoring In the beginning at which time Camp Hill, hoping to win, played the offensive of the game, but In the sec ond quarter, saw that winning was well nigh impossible. At this time Miss Smith being Injured. Miss Patterson was shifted to guard; the Penn Hall forward being considered one of the fast forwards in the state. And R. Nallor was put at Patterson's place at forward. With this lineup. Penn Hall gained but 11 points In the second half. The playing of Miss Patterson at guard was an outstanding feature of the game, AROUND THE BASES Boxing is coming back with a rush.

Uncle Sam Ready For Olympic Games No Matter Where They Are Staged New Ysrk, Feb. 11. —"America stands ready to send a represen tative athletic team to the next Olympic games regardless of the time or plsce which may be des ignated." This was the answer prominent Amateur Athletic Union officials to the query of the Swedish Athletic Association made through United States Min ister Morris at Stockholm re cently. The track and field authorities of this country have been active ly engaged since the signing of the armistice in preparing for a world-wide revival In competi tive athletics and the Implied de sire of the Swedish association to re-establish th e Olympic games did not occasion surprise in A. A. U. circles. Bweden acted as host to athletes from all parts of the world in the meet at 1912 and the imposing stadium built for the contests still stands. Sweden, however, is not the only nation which desired to hold the games and it is probable that a conference of the International Olympic games committee will be necessary. In the near future, to pass upon this phase of the situation, especially if the meet Is to be staged In 1920, as appears probable. Whatever the date the Olympic games will be preceded by sev eral international track meets of more or less formal character, eitl\er in this country or Europe. The Swedish A. A. has already cabled to the A. A. U., suggesting an international meet in this country next autumn and of fering to send a team of fifteen athletes for competition against a picked American combination. No decision has been reached as yet on the proposal owing to the heavy expenses which such an undertaking Involves. If certain contingencies, which are under consideration, eventuate this meet will probably appear as a part of the feature events of the sport schedule of 1919. as you puff out of a jimmy pipe packed figure that P.
