              Hershey Olivets Help
Keep Hershey On Map
The Hershey Olivets basketball team
can justly claim the championship of
Central Pennsylvania. The Olivets start-ed
their schedule back in November, play-ing
three games a week, one at home and
two away. The team to date has had one
of their most successful seasons, having
E
layed thirty-five games and losing but
ve of them. ' Wilharrisport was the only
team to beat the Olivets on their own floor
this year.
The Olivets suffered their last defeat
two weeks ago, when they traveled to
Tyrone and were beaten by the athletic
club of that town by a close score. The
game was scarcely a fair test of the Olivets,
as they had no time to rest after leaving
the train, but had to get into their togs
immediately upon their arrival for the
game. The .following night the Olivets
trounced the Houtzdale A. C. 50 to 25, a
team that had defeated the Tyrone team.
The Olivets earlier in the season were
defeated by a close margin by the St. Joe
team, at Lancaster, with their star forward,
Clark, out of the game with a sprained
ankle. Since then the St. Joe has refused
to play the Olivets on the Hershey Men's
Club floor, cancelling twice. The Olivets
know that they can decisively trounce the
St. Joe team on their own floor, and know
that they can turn the trick on a neutral
floor with a neutral referee.
About fifteen games remain yet to be
played, and the Olivets expect to finish the
season without another defeat. Among
the victims are the Harrisburg Big Five,
Pottsville, York Collegians, Reading
Transit, Millersville and the Burham Y.
M. C. A., breaking their string of twenty-two
straight victories.
The Olivets won the Inter-County
Basketball League championship in the
past two seasons, 1921-22 and 1923. This
league was composed of Millersville, Lititz,
Marietta, Mt. Joy, Elizabethtown, Her-shey
and Steelton, representing Dauphin,
Lancaster and Lebanon counties.
The players of the Olivets are Strine and
Clark, forwards; Leithiser, center; Zim-merman
and Stover, guards; with Elliott
for substitute. These lads are all local
boys who started playing together ten
years ago. _
The Olivets play on the Hershey Men's
Club floor every Wednesday evening, play-ing
teams that have the highest standing
in the basketball realm, and have incurred
considerable expense in order to bring
these teams to Hershey. The Olivets have
put Hershey on the map, in a basketball
sense, and the people of Hershey should get
back of the team with their financial sup-port.
It is all right for us to throw out
our chests and boast that the Olivets are
winners, but that doesn't help the Olivets
pay the expenses of putting on these games.
Why not come around next Wednesday
evening and plunk down 35 cents, the
admission fee, and give your blood a little
"pep".
American Flag Proudl y
Floats From Station
The members of the Reading railroaders,
stationed at Hershey, quartered at the
passenger and freight stations, under the
genial and capable leadership of Earl R.
Mays, took the initiative in their own
hands on Washington's Birthday and
raised a flagstaff over the freight station
from which floated Old Glory. The staff
was not very substantial and the flag was
not very large, but the railroaders are
planning to erect a larger pole by Decora-tion
Day from which a beautiful and large
American flag will float in the chocolate
aroma breezes of Hershey, and at which
time suitable ceremonies will be made.
Congratulations, may your good work
spread until every railroad station in the
United States will follow in your footsteps!
The Hershey Volunteer Fire Company
have a flag pole, and a large flag, but the
flag was conspicuous by its absence on
Washington's Birthday. Several of our
representative citizens have stated that
they believe the firemen are ladder-shy,
this being why the flag was not unfurled.
The firemen have a janitor, or a porter, we
know not which , ow why not in the future let
the duty of unfurling the American flag
fall to him?
Inasmuch as the P. O. S. of A. stands for
100 per cent Americanism, why should
they not have a flagstaff and a flag. True
there (a no flagstaff on their building, but it
seems to us this could be done, if the
members would be up and doing.
Let the American flag float from every
public building in Hershey.
PRINTERS WIN ANOTHER
The Printing room scored their second
victory in an Industrial League basketball
game on last Thursday evening on the
Men's Club floor , when they showed their
heels to the fast traveling Wrapping De-partment
team, by the score of 37 to 18.
The Printers got off to a good start by
caging several baskets before their oppon-ents
found themselves and thereafter were
never headed although the game was fast
at all times with both teams putting all
they hud into the game. For the losers the
all-around work of Purcell stood out
prominently, while Light made a beautiful
field goal from over half the length of the
floor. Disslngcr and Fasnncht played
their usual steady game for the Printers.
The Printing Department now heads the
league with two wins and no defeat.

W.C.T.U. To Hold
Meeting Tuesday Ev'ng
The W. C. T. U. will meet at the home of
Mrs. R. H. Taylor on Tuesday evening,
March 4th, at 7.30 o'clock. An invitation
is extended to all of the ladies of Hershey
and vicinity to be present.
The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union reaches out into every line of service
in the home, social or civic life, and touches
every spring of action that can be corre-lated
for humanity's good. Its scope is as
wide as the universe and limited only by
humanity's need. Its motto, "For God
and Home and Every Land," holds within
its compass all that makes life worth living
True to its God-given mission the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union has consis-tently
pursued its "Do Everything" policy
whose effectiveness the present status of
public sentiment and action amply justi-fies.
The attempts made by the enemies of
prohibition to nullify the law, to hinder its
enforcement and to minimize its good
effects serve to emphasize the fact that the
organized work of the W. C. T. U. must not
be abandoned. Prohibition, now a part of
Federal law, must be written in the law of
individual life, receive the support of the
people, and become a fixed principle of
action. Years of educational labor stretch
before us ere total abstinence is accepted
by the masses of the people as the only safe
rule of life. Law enforcement must long
be stressed ere prohibition will be safe from
the assaults of its enemies. It is our duty
to continue with increased vigor the teach-ing
that alcohol is a poison and unfit for
human consumption; and while we main-tain
an intensive campaign for the election
of officials pledged to law enforcement, the
gospel of respect for lawfully constituted
authority, and the highest ideals of Chris-tian
patriotism must be inculcated. These
with our far-reaching program for World
Prohibition, Americanization, Social Mo-rality,
Child Welfare and Social Service
and due attention to the other great divi-sions
of our work offer a program sufficient
to inspire the enthusiasm of a stoic and
rouse the most sluggish to action.
The W. C. T. U. appeals to each home-loving
woman for such measure of support
as she may be able to give its soul-thrilling
program of service. The heart of Ameri-can
womanhood beats in unison with the
heart of the W. C. T. U. Will you not,
therefore, enlist now and with the W. C. T.
U. work to make the world safer, happier
and better through the triumph of Christ's
Golden Rule in custom and in law!
Fiery Cross Burned
In Hershey
While a Washington's Birthday Dance
was at its height, which was being held in
the Hershey Winter Dance Hall Friday
night and which was held under the
auspices of the Hershey Post, No. 386,
American Legion, several members of the
Ku Klux Klan burned a fiery cross on the
adjoining corner.
The KJansmen arrived in town at 10.15,
having come, in an automobile, stopping at
the corner of Chocolate and Cocoa Ave-nues,
where they placed a large wooden
cross and a few moments later ignited it
and without further demonstration were
off.
Capt. Price, of the State Police, soon had
the fiery cross toppled over into a snow
bank, where it was quickly extinguished.
HERSHEY GIRLS DEFEAT MT. JOY
. On Tuesday evening a large delegation
of basketball rooters journeyed to Mt.
Joy where the Wrapping Department
Girl's team swamped the Mt. Joy Lassies
by the one-sides score of 17-1. The Mt.
Joy girls were no match for the speedy
Chocolate Town tossers and were com-pletely
outclassed in all departments of the
game. The whole Hershey team played
Faultlessly and amazed the crowd with
some dazzling shots and fast floor work.
The trip was made in Ed. Gruber's big
moving van, between 50 and 75 young
people accompanying the team. A game
with the Lancaster girls team is being
arranged for March 1st, at which time
another large crowd of supporters are
certain to be on hand.

Hershey and surrounding territory were on
hand last Saturday afternoon at the Derry
Church hotel to participate in the big
shooting match pulled oft by the Lebanon
Valley Fish and Game Protective Associa-tion.

o'clock when a live buck deer was put up
for the prize. After some close figuring,
Reuben JKopp was declared the winner of
the buck by a perfect builds-eye. He can
well be proud of his marksmenshlp for
about 120 men Including some of the best

Hershey High Quintets
^ i Win From Academy
The Hershey High School basketball
teams, varsity and scrub, defeated the
Harrisburg Academy in two games on
Thursday afternoon. The High School
varsity won from the Academy first team
by the score of 41 to 38, and the Hershey
scrubs defeated the Academy reserves

The Academy drew first blood in the
varsity game by scoring two field goals.
The Hersheyites . could not locate the
basket and were hampered by the low
ceiling of the Academy gym. Hershey's
first points were scored by Magrini through
the medium of two foul goals. The first
half ended 25'to 18 in, the Academy's
favor.
The Harrisburgers started the second
half by scoring a foul goal. After several
minutes of fast play the Hersheyites tallied
the first field goal of this period. The
playing of the Hershey boys was much
better in this period having succeeded in
locating the baskets, and they rapidly tied
the score at 29 to 29. The Academy boys
began to weaken from the fast pace they
had set and the Hersheyites scored at will.
With four minutes to play in the final
period the score stood 34-34. Magrini
and Kramer both scored pretty field goals
after dribbling the ball the length of the
floor. Aungst staged some pretty floor
work, keeping the ball around the Acade-my's
basket and with one minute to play
the score was 39-38 favor Hershey.
In the final minute of play Tinney
scored a field goal and the game ended
41-38 favor Hershey. The feature of this
game was the playing of Tinney and
Mechlovitz, the former scoring 16 points
for Hershey and the Harrisburg boy caging
19 points for the Academy.

YOUNG PEOPLES' CONFERENCE AT
HARRISBURG
Legion to Hold Card
Part y Tonight
The third of the series of Card Parties
which are being conducted under the
auspices of Hershey Post, No. 386, Ameri-can
Legion, will be held Thursday (tonight)
February, 28th, at 8,00 o'clock, in the Red
Cross-Rooms, of the Central Theatre. The
committee in charge of these parties had
decided not to have a party this month,
feeling that it Was sort of an imposition on
their part to ask the public for their sup-port,
after they had responded so nobly to
make the production of "Powder River"
and the Washington's Birthday Dance a
success. (Powever, inquiries were received
onf all [sides as to when the next card
party would be held and in its effort to
give the people of Hershey what they want,
the committee agreed to hold the event on
the date above stated. In addition to the
regular prizes there will be several hand-some
prizes which are being donated by
local people, who are taking a keen interest
in this work. "500" and Pinochle will be
played and refreshments will be served.
Miss Cambi to
Dance a la Oriental
On Saturday evening, March 1st, be-ginning
at 7.30 o'clock, the Italian Society,
M. S. I., of Swatara, will hold a dance. A
cordial invitation is extended to the people
of Hershey and vicinity to attend.
There will be special attractions, the
outstanding one being the oriental dance
given by Miss Giaconda Cambi. Many a
one has heard about the wonderful appeal
of the oriental dance, and this will be an
opportunity of seeing Miss Cambi's inter-pretation.
Another feature will be the dancing
number of Miss Corrina Cambi and
James Fick in a Spanish tango. You have
seen Valentino do his stuff, and if you want
to see a tango just as good or better, see
this couple. They will make you sit up
and take notice.
Another feature will be an accordian
number by that youthful master of the
ivories, Victor DeAngelis.
The music for the dance will be furnished
by Prof. Arthur Matterazzi and bis orches-tra.
Don't forget the date, and don't forget
the place.
Hershey Store Again
Surpasses Record
The "Chop-Down Sale" that was held
on Washington's Birthday by the Hershey
Department Store, "the big live shopping
centre of Lebanon Valley" was the greatest
ever. Prices were not merely reduced, but
were chopped to the very limit.
The Store was thronged with shoppers,
even' tho the weather conditions were none
of the best, reaping the benefit of the
many bargains that abounded in every one
of the many departments.
George Washington and his beloved wife,
Martha, impersonated by Mr. and Mrs.
Fred Botts, were the centre of attraction,
being a most pleasing treat to the eyes,
especially Mrs. Botts, who was particularly
charming and lovely. In comparison, the
bob-haired flapper of today looks most
insignificant indeed. These dignified and
stately couple of "the days that are gone
forever" were busily engaged in handing
out souvenirs, emblematic of the day, con-sisting
of a hatchet, a pastry one, with
cherries and icing. My, but they were
good, and the 4000 persons that each
received one said so, too.
Mrs. Gilbert to Address
Red Cross Tuesday
The monthly meeting of the Hershey
Red Cross will be held on Tuesday after-noon,
March 4th. The business session
will convene promptly at 2 o'clock.
Mrs. Lyman Gilbert, of Harrisburg, will
be present, and after the business meeting,
she will address the chapter. A large
attendance is urged to be present to greet
Mrs. Gilbert, as she is a speaker well worth
hearing. Every member should make it a
point to be present on Tuesday afternoon.
Note the change of date from Monday
to Tuesday.
Don't forget the Lean Year Dance that
will be held at the Hershey Men's Club on
Friday evening. The dance will be held
on the gymnasium floor, and several hun-dred
dancers can be accommodated with
ease. The Hershey Harmonlzers will
furnish the music. These boys are clever
and they will demonstrate what real dance
music consists of. The gymnasium floor
makes ideal dancing, and the committee in
charge is deslrioua of taxing the floor to its
utmost on Friday evening. Come out and
help make the dance a great success. The
admission la only 35 cents, including tax.
LEAP YEAR DANCE ON FRIDAY
EVENING
A very pleasant surprise party was held
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Irvin Gordon
on Saturday evening, Feb. 23rd, in honor
of Mr. Gordon's birthday anniversary.
Mr. Gordon was the recipient of many
beautiful and useful gifts as well as numer-ous
good wishes from his many friends.
The evening was delightfully spent in
music, dancing and games and refresh-ments
were served to the following: Mr.
and Mrs. John Brownsweiger, Mr. and
Mrs. James Hannlgan, Mr. and Mrs.
Jacob Smith, Mr, and Mrs. Ralph Gamier.
Mrs. Ella Karch, Mrs. Mary' Blough ana

ENTERTAIN AT BIRTHDAY PARTY
Y.W.U.Hold
Social Gatherin g
A very delightful gathering of Y. W. C.
A. members was held at the Hershey Cafe,
Monday evening, Feb. 25. The guests
gathered to the strains of the violin and
piano, pleasingly rendered by Misses
Miriam Moore and Miss Leah Burns.
A short business meeting was held for
the election of a nominating committee,
the duty of which committee is to solicit
prospective Board members to be elected
at the annual meeting to take the place of
those Board members whose terms expire
this year.
A social hour followed during which a
pleasing musical program was given and
refreshments served.
The numbers on the program were as
follows:
Solo by Miss Leah Burns, accompanied
by Mrs. D. S. Graeff; piano duetts, by
Miss Gladys Christ and Miss Miller; violin
solo by Miss Miriam Moore, accompanied
by Miss Leah Burns. During the serving
of refreshments there were rendered by
Misses Burns and Moore a number of very
beautiful selections on piano and violin.
The next meeting for members and
friends of the Association will be the
Annual Meeting, which will be held during
March, the date of which will be announced
later.
Rev. Hartranft To Give
Illustrated Lecture
Rev. Hartranft will give an illustrated
lecture, at the Y. W. C. A. on Friday eve-ning,
Feb. 29. The illustrations will show
Hoffman's beautiful paintings depicting
the life of Christ, forming the basis of Rev.
Hartranft's lecture.
These pictures are exceptionally beauti-ful
and the people of Hershey and vicinity
should congratulate themselves upon this
rare opportunity that presents itself. Rev.
Hartranft is a most able and eloquent
lecturer, and whit his ability, in combina-tion
with the pictures, the Y. W. C. A.
should be taxed to its utmost on Friday
evening. Everyone, men, women, boys
and girls given a most cordial invitation to
attend this illustrated lecture. The child-ren
will also enjoy these pictures. The ad-mission
is free.
Hershey Firemen
To Discuss Matters
The Hershey Volunteer Fire Company
will hold their regular monthly meeting on
Tuesday evening, March 4th, at which
time there will be further discussion per-taining
to the fire siren that is placed on
the cupola of the Hershey Men's Club.
Assistant Chief J. F. Snavely is planning
to put up for the Company's approval a
proposition whether or not a minstrel
show should be put on to raise funds where-by
alarm boxes may be installed through-out
the town.
President Blinker will appoint a Com-mittee
to see why there is no action in
having the interior of the hose house re-paired,
as was promised. Some of these
strenuous meeting nights the ceiling is
liable to fall down on the heads of the
valiant firemen, and then there will be a
dust of a time.
Another important matter that will
come up for discussion concerns the police
that were chosen at the last meeting. It
seems to be the opinion of several of the
members that a chief of this police detach-ment
should be elected, and that he be
given some authority in order to get the
best out of his men, so as to give proper
police surveillance whenever there is a fire.
There will be other important matters,
so come out on Tuesday evening, and be a
regular fireman.
Legion Dance a Success
The brilliant success was scored by
Hershey Post, No. 386, American Legion,
Friday evening, Feb. 22d, when their
Fifth Annual Washington's Birthday
Dance was held in the Winter Dance
Hall. As predicted this affair was bigger
and better in every way and from the
comment heard on every side, everyone
that had the good fortune of being present,
enjoyed themselves to the utmost. The
hall was artistically decorated in red, white
and blue for the occasion and presented a
fine appearance. The celebrated Lloyd
Major s orchestra, of Harrisburg, furnished
the music in fine style and seemed to outdo
themselves in an effort to please the host of
dancers with their jazzy fox-trots and
dreamy waltzes. In addition to their
excellent dance music they allowed their
versatility by rendering several novelty
songs and sketches, much to the amuse-ment
of the crowd. The punch booth was
literally swamped with thirsty dancers
after each dance and handed out a brand
of punch which quickly quenched the
thirst of the thirstiest. The cake and
candy table also came in for a large share
of attention and were kept busy serving
their toothsome confections. A large
share of the credit for the success of the
dance is due to the committee in charge
and to the valuable assistance rendered by
the future Ladles' Auxiliary.
Hershey Hi Challenged
The Wllllamstown High School has sent
the Hershey High School a challenge to
play a series of three games to decide the
basketball championship of Dauphin coun-ty.
The first game of the aerlea will be
§layed on tho llershey Men's Club floor on
aturday afternoon.
It will bo recalled that Hershey and
Wllllamstown battled for , the County
championship In base ball last spring when
the latter nosed out a 4-2 victory. This
should prove an Interesting series of games
and should elicit strong support from all
Hershey adherents, '
Don't forget the game and bo present on
Saturday afternoon , at 2.30 o'clock.
The Marria ge Maker9'
Central Theatre Tonight
Rivaling in importance .and ability the
strongest cast, ever assembled in any
motion picture in recent years, William C.
de Mille's latest Paramount picture
production, "The^Marriage Maker," will
be the leading feature at the Hershey
Central Theatre on-Thursday evening,
Feb. 28th. .Agnes Ayres- and Jack Holt
play the featured roles. In their support
are Charles de Roche, Robert Agnew and
Mary Astor. Others who portray import-ant
parts are Ethel Wales and Bertram
Johns.
"The Marriage Maker" was adapted by
Clara Beranger from Edward Knoblock s
play, 'The Faun," in which William Faver-sham
starredjfor several years. It is a
delightful comedy-drama and a startlingly
unusual picture. It has for its^central
situation the adventures of a mysterious
being, human yet almost like a Faun,
which comes to live among a group of
Faun known only the elemental instincts of
love, hate, fear, and the like and is little
more than an animal in his simplicity.
Guy Wilky, chief camerman for William
de Mule's productions for Paramount, did
the photography.
Famous Men Filmed In
"The Spanish Dancer"
Famous characters of history, almost as
Well known today as they were in their own
time, come to life in Pola Negri's new
Paramount picture, "The Spanish Dan-cer,
" a Herbert Brenon production adapted
by June Mathis and Beulah Marie Dix
from the book and play, "Don Cesar de
Bazan," which comes to the Hershey
Central Theatre on Saturday evening,
March 1st.
Among these characters are Olivares,
powerful politician of his day; Cardinal
Richelieu, sworn enemy to Olivares, and
Don Carlos, whose portraits were painted
a dozen times by the great artist, Velas-quez,
and now hang in many famous art
galleries. Those roles are enacted by
Henry Vogel, Charles A. Stevenson and
Dawn O'Day, respectively.
jhThe old Spanish gowns worn by Pola
Negri constitute a veritable fashion dis-play,
which^awillj ienthuse almost _every
woman screen fan. Some of the costumes
worn by the famous star in the scenes taken
in the gypsy camp show the strong in-fluence
which the Moorish invasion ex-ercised
over Spanish life even after it had
been repulsed. Later in the story, when
Pola Negri as Maritana, the gypsy girl,
becomes the wife of Don Cesar, she wears

of any other period in history.
Kathlyn Williams, who plays the role of
Isabella, queen of Spain, displays gowns
designed from those shown in the hundred
odd pictures which Velasquez painted of
that famous queen. A number of ladies in

different gowns were designed for each. In

featured. Heading a strong cast are
Wallace Beery as King Philip, Gareth
Hughes an armourer's assistant, Adolphie
Menjou, a powerful minister in the Spanish
court—Edward Kipling, Robert Brower
and many others.
iK i The pupils of the Sixth and Seventh
grades are exceedingly interested in their
work in basketry. Under the very efficient
direction of Rev. Hartranft the work of
this nature has advanced very materially
over that of former years. The work that
is being accomplished has advanced to the
point where the products made are really
serviceable as well as ornamental, affording
splendid training for both hands and minds
Rev. Hartranft is untiring in his efforts
to teach the children during the regular
period and after school he continues hla
instructions with the teachers.
