Lake Township —0:— By Adda Garinger Josephine Grey Laketon gym was the scene of three very exciting and close games on Friday evening, January 25, when the Lehman High School boys and girls teams visited us and played two very exciting games with our teams. The girls’ game was a very inter- seting one, and the score at the first half was very close. At the end of the game the score was 19-23, in fav- or of Laketon. The boys game was equally as exciting, it being a very rough and tumble affair. At the end of the first half 'Laketon was in the lead by a good margin, and Coach McCaughley gave our future champions a chance. “Pete” Kuchta, our future star, scored eight points for #aketon, and Grey, Kocher, Major, Payne and the rest of the second team showed their ability by bringing the score up to 23 to 5 at the close of the game. A team from Hazleton came to play the Sandy Beach Five, and if the other games. were exciting, this one was doubly so. As those boys had watched the other games, they had become very much excited, and when the whistle blew for them to play they certainly were ready to fight. The game was part’ football, and our alumni showed their ability at playing basket ball in that game. At the close our boys were far in'the lead.

Wild Game Preserve for Pocono Region —:0— Local , sportsmen who attended a game conference in Harrisburg during last week were considerably encour- aged by news that the State Game Commission contemplates the pur- chase of 12,000 acres of wild land on the Poconos as a shooting preserve. Announcement of the project was first made at the recent dinner of the United Sportsmen held in this city. x 0} Briefly Told Few are qualified to shine in com- pany but it is in most men’s power to be agreeable. Realtors Offers Plot of Ground — +0: — The public playground question for Dallas has been brought to a head by the offer of a firm of realtors of a plot of land for such a purpose. The plot lies northeast of town on the Goss plot, back of the Bulford and Hefft properties. It is said the land will’ be donated to the borough for park purposes, and a further gift of approximately $2,000 is available from an outside source toward the equipment necessary. The plot offered is near the creik, which it is proposed to dam making a swimming pool in summer and a skating rink in winter. ‘The plot is just over the borough line in Dallas ‘Township and some legal steps might be necessary to either annex it to the borough or by some other arrangement get it ex- empted from township taxes. Some kind of an outlet would be necessary, either from the business part of the town near the Lehigh Valley station, which would require about 300 or more yards of new roadway, of by an extension of Cemetery Street, now a private lane, to a corner mear the Hefft property to the proposed play- ground. The plot is lacking a suitable ‘spot for an athletic field which is much needed. It is likely that a second plot will be considered to give the town plenty of playgrounds while the land is available and the prices reas- onable. : Genuine Tnporeed First Quality JAPANESE ALL SILK PONGEE QUALITY H Certified by Government Stamped FUKUI'KEN 6 TC3066—Here’s the biggest Silk Pongee bargain to be found anywhere!
