              CHRISTMAS
SEALS TO BE
ON SALE SOON
School children of Hershey and Derr y
township will have Red Cross Christmas
Seals for sale beginn ing next Monday when
the seal campai gn opens in Dauphin count y.
Each year Hershey school children have
made splendid records in selling Christmas
Seals and the committee of the Anti-Tuber-culosis
Society of Dauphin county in charge
of the campaign this year , antici pate that
the boys and girls will set a high record for
other schools in the county to reach.
Professor Frank E. Shambaugh , county
school superintendent , in a letter to prin-cipals
and teachers , urges them to co-operate
in making the Seal campai gn a bigger
success than ever before. It is largely
throu gh the aid of the public schools that
Daup hin county 's excellent record of seal
sales has 'been made. (=¦ tfe»|fr ' p
Almost 80 per cent of the money der ived
from the sale of the seals is used in this
county in anti-tuberculosis work. Each
year many persons die from this disease or
are stricken with it and do not recover for
many months. It is to prevent a spread of
the White Plague that the little Christmas
Seals are offered to the pub lic.
Each person buying the Bed Cross Christ-mas
Seals invests in public health work as
the money is used entirel y for th at purpose.
The distribution of seals for the Hershey
district will be in charge of Miss Zelma
Baker , with head quarters in the Hershey
Free Library. Miss Baker has made ar-rangements
for the seals to be placed on
sale in the following places: The Factory ,
Department Store , Men's Club , Cafe, Li-brary
and Printery. Every one is requested
to do his "bit " in advancing the movement
and at the same time uphold the reputation
of Hershey established in previous years .

INDEPENDENTS TRIM ROCKW OOD
FIVE
In the first mid-week game of the season,
the Harrisburg Independents handed out a
defeat to the Rockwood Five of Phil adelphia,
Tuesday evening by a 40-80 score . The
Harrisburg team was considerably off color
in shooting but gave a splendid exhibition
of floor work. The game was at a deadl ock
at the end of the first half , each team having
scored 14 points . In the final half the
Harrisburg boys played a decidedl y superior
game.
The Independents had a pleasant time in
playing with the represe ntative Norristown
team Saturday evening 'and they proceeded
to walk oyer them at will. The final score
was 44-16 and at that is no indication of the
'margin * of superiority held by the winners.
It was a case of being completel y outclassed
at all departments of the game . Ever y man
on the Independent team figured in the
scoring, with a total of 16 field goals being
distributed among them .
The attraction for Saturday evening will
be the Pitcairn five which has the reputation
of being one of the fastest teams in the
state. With the Independents going along
in the style they have displayed in the past
few weeks, a battle royal is certain to result.

OLIVETS DROP
CLOSE GAME
WITH MT. JOY
Fighting an uphill battle , the Hershey
Olivets dropped a hard-f ought game to the
Mt. Joy quintette Monday evening on the
latter 's floor after an extra five minute
period had been played. The Olivets put
up a great battle all through the game
despite the fact that the greater part of the
time they were playing six men, including
the referee. A large pr oportion of the points
tallied by the Mt. Joy team were gathered
from the foul line while the Hershe y lads
were given but few opportunities to cage a
basket from that point.
At the end of the regulation period , the
score stood with each team in possession of
thirty points. During the extra period the
Mt . Joy boys made one field goal and one
foul while the Olivets succeeded in scoring
once from the field. The foul was called on
Hershey just as the whistle blew and the
ball in Clark 's possession with no one near
him. The referee however declared that
there were two men playing the ball and
gave the Mt . Joy team the chance for
victory .
Friday evening of last week the Olivets
came across with a victory over the Golde
team of Lancas ter in one of the best games
ever seen here. The final score was 80-27.
At the end of the first half , the visitors were
leading, 18-15. The entire team played
well for the locals and Garvey and Stetter
put up the best game for the Lanca ster team .
Tomorrow evening . the Olivets will line
up against their old rival s, the Elizabethtown
Five and a great battle is certain to result.
For years these two towns have been great
rivals and consequentl y both teams always
put forth their best efforts. Immediatel y
proceeding the game the Hers hey Elaines
will play the Leban on Orioles. •
HERSHEY HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS
TRIUMPH SATURDAY
Saturday was a day of trium ph for the
studen ts of the Hershe y High School. To
start it off the boys basketball team badl y
trounced the Lebanon J unior High School
team , the final score being 88-4. On top
of that splendid achievement , the local
girl 's team displayed their calibre by defeat-ing
the girls from Camp Hill High School
by a margin of three points , the final score
being 7-4. Both games were played on the
floor of the Hershe y Men's Club and at-tracted
a large crowd. The work and team
play of the local teams' give every promi se
of a very successful season-
As the score of the boys game would imply
it was simply a grand slaughter , finall y re-solving
into a landslide and the chief aim
of the visitors was to prevent the score from
reaching the century mark . The ball shot
into the net with the ra pidity of an automatic
punch and the Lebanon boys best efforts
at guarding went for nau ght. Forty one
field goals and six baskets from th e fifteen
foot line summed up the work of the Her-shey
tossers while two field goals was the
best that the other team could register.
Shea , Copenhaver and Dowhower , were the
high scorers , the first two caging 9 apiece
and the1 la tter securin g eight. Ever y man
on the team however figured largely in the
scoring. Shott and Wilson , ri ght forward
and left guard , respectivel y, of the visitors,
tallied their points.
The girl 's game was in exact contrast ,
being hard fought thro ughout the entire
contest . Both teams put up a clever de-fensive
game and as a result , each team
secured but one goal from the field. Miss
Gruber , center of the local team , had a
slight edge on her opponent in th e work
from the foul line however and succeeded
in tall ying enough points to insure victor y.
She sent the ball throug h the net 5 times
out of 9 attempts while the best her opponent
could do was 2 out of 5.
Both local .teams have arranged a lengthy
and complete schedule for the season and
included in the list are several teams which
made a bid last year for the'Sta tcchapionshi p
of their class. As the majority of the games
will be played on the home floor tie Hershey
fans will be given an opportunit y of seeing
some fast games .
