TECH IN FORM TO BATTLE TODAY WITH ERIE ELEVEN-ARMY-NAVY IN ANNUAL CLASH CAMP CURTIN WINS FIRST JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL GAME; WILSBACH IS BIG STAR In the first annual football contest played between the Camp Curtin and the Thomas Edison Junior High Schools at Island Park yesterday, the Camp Curtin lads won a thrilling game by a score of 6 to 0. Captain Bricker, quarterback, scored the touchdown in the first quarter that won the game. The score came after eight minutes of play and was the result of a bad fumble by Edison. It had all the thrills of former Tech- Central games. Those who moaned at the passing of the former Thanks giving classic, will now have their desires gratified in the playing of the contest for the city Junior High championship. Camp Curtin with the Municipal Band occupied the east bleachers. Leading in the cheering and songs j t 0 the accompaniment of the Munici pal Band was Chief Cheer Leader Hel- | en Graeff, assisted by James Kipp. j Clair Yingst. Edward Astrich. Donald \ McCamant. Arthur Winters, Virginia | Wert* and Samuel Krebs. The girls | w ore bluo skirts with white sweaters | and tarns. The boys looked like real . • gobs," with white trousers, blue | sweaters and white sailor hats. Edison In Evidence Edison occupied the west bleach ers. and were led in the songs and : cheers by Chief Cheer Leader Harold Prank, Lewis llimes, Mary Collins. I Helen Forsythe. Dorothy Long. John j Carl, Ethel Fitch and Jennie Runkle. ( They cheered and sang to the music j of the Commonwealth Band. The girl j leaders had while skirls and tarns, j with maroon sweaters. The boys > wore white trousers and caps, with j Maroon sweaters. But there were not only the boys and girls of the two High j Schools. A noticeable feature was the faculty of the two schools. They | were Hanked in with their pupils, and i cheered with as much vehemence as the youngsters of the scholars. Then j too, there were plenty of fond fathers f and mothers who were rooting hard for their favorites. Tech and Central students poured out in large numbers and sat with their favorites, rooting - for the up-town or Hill school. Three thousand people viewed the contest. Plenty of Pep Outstanding on every hand was the I spirit, rivalry, ginger, or call it "pep." | that made the old ones young, and the young hilarious. It was a true j demonstration of the spirit of the | American youth, with both sides hav- • ins their chance to root. Because of I the secore made by Bricker in the j fii st quarter, "this period must he giv en to the up-towners. They knocked i Edison off their feet, and won the ! game almost before the Hillers knew j what had happened. With a score against them, the Edi- J son lads came back strong at Camp j Curtin, and really outplayed Coach j Geisel's squad One feature that kept ' Edison from scoring in this period j was a 40-yard run hy Williams. This i play counteracted all the good work : that was done by Johnson in this j quarter. Edison easily had the best of the j third quarter when they worked the pigskin to the 13-yard line only u> lose it on downs. Nye was the bear- I cat who brought the oval from one end of the field to the other. He was the star of the period. But at this , juncture Camp Curtin braced, and fortune came to the up-town students ~ who advanced the ball" to Edison's ' eight-yard line when the final whistle Three Penn Stars Are No Longer Eligible For Varsity Contests Philadelphia, Nov. 29. Heinie Miller, Lou Little and Ben Derr. of this year's Penn eleven, have agreed to plav professional football with the Massilon (Ohio) Tiger teum, start ing to-day and continuing for the rest of the "pro" season, it was re ported yesterday. Lud Wray and Tlobey Light also received offers to play "pro" football, it was rumored, but they have not accepted. W ray's father is dead set against his son receiving pay for his athle tic efforts and Light is anxious to graduate in dentistry. Derr was barred from playing in the Penn-Cornell game because of c harges that he played with a pro fessional team at Akron. Ohio, last Sunday. He and Little are not ex pected to remain in college and Mil ler also may drop out. Although the Penn athletic au thorities are not favorably inclined towards the intended move of Miller, Little and Derr, they are powerless to prevent it. under the present eligi bility rules. Of course, the trio of gridiron stars will never more be al lowed to represent Penn in an ath letic contest, but their athletic ca reers really t ended with the Penn- Cornell game for proficiency in ath- | letics was limited to the gridiron sport. Light, on the other hand, is a good baseball player and so is Lud Wray. Both may get into this sport in the spring if they preserve their amateur status. Here's something good to draw to.

But the Blue and White were 1 satisfied with the six points of the > fiist quarter that,brought victory'. Two lllg Stars L Victory was mauo possible by the .igreat work of Wllsbach and Bricker. • I Camp Curtin eleven lined up on a fake i I kick formation similar to the one i I that Tech will use against Erie to- I day. Instead of kicking. Bricker j swept ground the Edison right end , I foi gains of 10 to 15 yards. Crown .

In the sec ond quarter Johnson made practically j all the gains and was credited with | most of the tackles on the defense, j 1". the third quarter Nyo took the lead j with his slashing off-iackle runs that il brought the ball to the Camp Curtin 13-yard line. That was the closest the losers came to u score. • The ends on both teams played best ! when there was a punt.

It was a great contest, j the only objection being that it was Ipluyed at a time when more of the parents could not see the battle. An effort will be made next year to I have the game played on a Saturday | afternoon prior to Thanksgiving. It ! was a mere taste of what is to follow. Such spirit is was seen on the Island yesterday is the very quintessence of , success that has spelled victory with capital letters for Tech this season on the gridiron. Camp Curtin is first winner of the silver cup offered by *Shenk and Tiitle, sporting goods deal ers. With Coaches Miller and Hiller; Geisel and Peifer developing such team play as were manifest yester j day, Tech is going to have many J mere winners. And Camp Curtiu with Edison Junior School will be largely responsible. The lineup and summary: ! CAM 1* CURTIN. EDISON. ' ] Lyter, 1. e. X.cLlnn.
