On Thursday afternoon the Patton Boys’ basketball squad was defeated by the Blacklick team in the opening game of the interscholastic tournament held at St. Francis’ College. The score at the end of the first half was 17 to 10, in fa- vor of Blacklick. For a time it seemed that Patton would win the game, but in the last half Blacklick started shoot. ing long shots and thereby gained a comfortable lead. They won the game by a score of 40 to 16. large number of students from the high school attended the St. Francis’ tournament the three days that it was in session, The girls’ basket! CARD OF THANKS. friends and admirers of this veteran editor, Few men are better known than Colonel Short among the active news- papermen of the State and fewer are more frequently quoted on editorial comment and opinion on current po- litical events or on historic features of public affairs in the Commonwealth during the last half century. A native of Clearfield, he was born December 5, 1862, he is recognized as one of the county's most outstanding citizens. He learned the printing trade under John Bixler, publisher of the Clear- field Citizen. He served in Harrisburg in 1882 on the staff of the late Benja- min F. Myers, then publisher of the Patroit, later he was employed on Philadelphia newspapers and then re- turned to Clearfield, where he resumed newspaper activty until 1896 when he joined the staff of the Pittsburgh Times as political writer. He attended Republican and Demo- cratic National Conventions, covered the Johnstown flood, and in 1897 he returned to Clearfield, where he bought The Republican, which he has since published as sole owner. He covered several sessions of the Pennsylvania Legislature, and toured the State with Quay, Elkin, Stone and others. He was an alternate delegate to the Democrat- ic National Conventions held in Kan- sas City, 1900; in St. Louis, in 1904, and at Denver, in 1906, and a delegate to the Democratic Conventions in St. Louis, in 1916, and in New York, ih 1924. He was United States Marshal for the Western Pennsylvania district in Wilson’s second administration, but continued his editorial work through- out that period. Answering frequent inquiries as why his Democratic newspaper carries the name “Republican,” Colonel Short would explain that it had a clear title to that name twenty years before the Republican Party was born.
