'¦¦ " ¦ '¦ . '• - ' : :' ¦' • ' ¦ , ''V¦' '¦ ¦ . . , ' .. ¦ • ¦'. Invitations had been sent out to a group of friends to attend a "Miscellaneous Wool-- worth Surprise Shower" to be tendered Mrs. Winfield Zimmerman, a bride of several months, and also a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Hershey. The Party was to be held at the parental home on Chocolate Ave., with Miss Virginia Hershey as hostess. Precisely as planned the guests assembled and in cautious manner approached the Hershey homestead, gaining admittance the while the unsuspecting Mrs. Zimmerman was out on a prearranged mission. She returned in the logical sequence of events and as she casually strolled into the home was pounced upon by many forms springing out from behind doors, chairs and other places of hiding, while the air was rife with shouts of laughter and merriment. Many tokens of friendship were then presented to her and after she had acknowledged her gratitude in generous terms a. program which enfolded ¦genuine.deUght-and-enjoyment was started. • . During the evening's program Miss Shultz was called to the door, a messenger having a telegram to deliver. She hastily opened the envelope, unfolded the telegram and read: "There is hereby announced the engagement of our daughter, Miss Virginia, to Mr. J. Earl Klinger, Sincerely, Mr, and Mrs. Daniel Hershey." With a great whoop Miss Shultz burst into the room where the guests were assembled, shouted the glad news and passed round to the excited assemblage the authori-tive "wire." Congratulations were showered upon Miss Virginia, after which a course of delicious refreshments was served. The list of guests included : Myra Ebersole Hummelstown; Ethel Fultz and Esther Hoff-man, Middletown; Violet Behm, Buth Shultz, Lillian Lebo, Helen Bender, Mrs. J. W. Dressier, Mrs. Irvin Slesser, Kathryn -Leithiser, Alma Drescher, Goldie Habecker, Mrs. Harry Boyer, Lydia Weltmer, Verna I Rodgers, and Eleanor .Wright. . MACNIDER'S WARNING In a telegram that admits no doubt as to its purpose, meaning and implied warning, Commander Hanford MacNider, of the American Legion, serves notice on the Presi-dent that the Bonus Bill must.be passed and passed now. He says he speaks for 25,000- 000 people, 5,000,000 former service men and 20,000,000 members' of their families. Throughout his telegram is menacing, bristling, brisque and ugly. It repeats the familiar bonus arguments and stresses very heavily that always effective statement—: when you have something you want to put over—that the "interests" are against you. Commander MacNider has been taking that tack recently. ~ His reference to the mainsprings of oppo-sition is pure buncombe. It is cheap petti-foggery and a dangerous outgiving. Selfish or not, bonus opposition is widespread, ex-tending even into the Legion itself. How-ever, his statement about compensation to veterans of other wars leads to comparisons, illuminating if not always flattering to the present bonus hunt, - We began paying war pensions July 1, 1790. In 1013, 123 years afterward, the total paid out to all war pensioners for that full period amounted to $4,457,539,824. We began paying Civil War pensions in 1802, and in 1913, over fifty years later, these had cost us $4,294,594,944. Now, some forty months after the armis-tice of 1918, the Nation is asked to pay out at least $2,500,000,000, possibly $5,000,- 000,O0O,at once, and without the shadow of pledge or guarantee that a pension-bonus-compensation lobby will not be in Wash-ington every year for the next fifty years. Forty months after the end of the great war the Nation is asked to pay but approximately half us much in a bonus as the Revolution, the War of 1818, the Mexican War, Civil War, War with Spain, the Philippine In-surrection and A scoe of Indian wars have cost us.in pensions all together in 130 years. Civil War veterans were pensioned for disability for a generation after that strug-gle. It was not until 1000, forty years after Appomattox, that pensions were given to soldiers because of the disability of age. Men were made to show that they were disabled before they could get on the pension rolls. Ho will do better to go along with pleas that are demands with warnings wri tten through every line of them. In spite of the fact tnat the Legion includes but one in every five of the former service men, he can get the car of Washington. His best lino is to use the blackjack ; his strongest hope is to intimidate Congress, and his bes.t clianco is to bring the harassed legislator tp see that he can swap a bonus law for votes that will put him backin Congress, : • ;.,.

A rocking chair and a table light are the prizes thus to be given and will be on exhibition in the front display window of the Store. For the various booths, particularly the Fishing Pond, and Candy and Cakes'many articles will be needed that can- be very .easily contributed by the people of Hershey and surrounding country. All know what a Fishing Pond is and if we will take the tune we will all be able to find something between the cellar and the attic that may be very well used in this booth. Please wrap it up and send or give it tp some member of the Fire Company and it will find its way to the proper destination. As to cakes, candy etc., the Fire Laddies will greatly appreciate any donation. Postcard your good intention to the Company and they will provide the means of conveying your donation to the Hall. Remember the big opening on Saturday, March 4, and watch bulletins and announce^ ments for more complete details. The Fire Company is anxious to make this affair an unqualified success and sincerely hope every citizen—young and old—may lend enthusi-astic support. LECTURE IN DERRY PRESBYTERIAN This community is being offered a rare treat by the John Elder Men's Bible Class of Derry Presbyterian Sunday School, when they 'will present oil Thursday, March 2, the Hon. Elwood T. Bailey, in his famous lecture "Getting Home from Third." The lecture will be held in the Presbyterian Church, starting at 8:00 o'clock. There will be no admission charged but a voluntary offering will be received. Since the days in High School and University when Mr. Bailey won prizes in oratorical contests and intercollegiate debates, he has been a popular speaker, having lectured in this country and abroad. For several years he was engaged in welfare work, studying social, economic and industrial conditions. Because of his interest in men he went with our troops to France where he was wounded and gassed. As a welfare worker he spoke to several hundreds of thousands of our soldiers both in fighting zones and in our camps. Not only is he eloquent in his delivery but all of his lectures are full of the human thing that people want to hear and his personality is such that when he has finished his lecture the listeners are conscious that they have been living with human conditions as por-trayed by an intensely human speaker. The Bailey lectures are not only inspirational and character-building but are filled with humor. ELIZABETHTOWN OUT OP INTER-COUNTY LEAGUE Basketball fans will learn with regret that Elizabethtown, the Olivets keenest rival at all times, has dropped out of the Inter- County race. This decision was reached by officials of the Club, following certain action taken on Monday evening at Mt. Joy, in a meeting of the league officials. Two E-town victories were protested by the , respectively defeated'teams on the grounds that the games w.pre,/rof«rccd by,officially uppqinted men and the protests,' were upheld by .

N . _-... In staging this f ihn the producer has taken particular- pains with the settings, and has presented the exteriors amidst the most art-istic natural backgrounds that could be found in Montana and Arizona. New pictures hi night photography are said to have resulted with thousands of soldiers, Indians, horses and buffalo taking part- in animated tableaux of original conception. "A Small Town Idol," one of the few pro-ductions Mack Sennett has made in six-reel proportions, comes to the Central Theatre on Wednesday March 1. With practically every member of his all-star aggregation of funny folk enrolled in a congenial part, there is assurance that "A Small Town Idol" will more than make good in the distinguished presence of its Sennett predecessors. Ben Turpin is the village , hero. Phyllis Haver is his small town ideal ; Marie Prevost is the city-girl that befriends poor Ben when the home-folks turn him down; Charlie Murray is the indefatigable constable; Jimmy Finlayson is the wetched villain who concocts all the trouble, and Kalla Pasha and Eddie Gribbon and all the rest of the Sennett not-ables are to be seen advantageously in the shifting scenes that cover as many places as are usually revealed in a half-dozen "problem plays" wherein the slums and the green fields are visited. P. O. S. OF A. NEWS Sunday evening, February 26, will be P. O. S. of A. night at th^ First United Brethren Church, when the pastor, the Rev. Dr. W- E. Daugherty, will preach a sermOn prepared especially for presentation to members of this patriotic order. Officers of Hershey Camp, No. 705 trust that all local Patriots will make it an obligation to at tend this service. All other members of the P. O. S. of A,, no matter , what Camp they may be affiliated with are very cordially invited to attend this service with the local Camp, Invitations have been sent to Lemoyne Camp, No. 405, and to the members and uniform rank of Harrisbuj-g Commandery, No. 01. It is anticipated many of these men will attend the service and it h expected the church will be filled to capacity. On Just Sunday evening, a P. O. S. of A. service was held in the United Brethren Church of Lcmoync. Local Patriots who attended this service were: Frank Carpenter, John Gordon, Irvin Aungst, Frank J. Christ, Claude IIutchinHon , Harry Christ, Cyrus Garman, C. II. Ulrich, C. A. Ulrich , Linidis Garman, Russell Smith, Walter DeVerter, Elmer Zarlman, Elmer Grubb, Charles Copp, II. M.

OrConncll VA^pSfsbf-oj irxitiz^ 'up--tti\pii' on -last: Wediaesdaty/'ifeVfenmg'..b'^-,:;¦ .' twee:n.-the 'noui^.f6f/six;^^^ observed a certain gr6up^«f-the"communfty's' ¦;¦'.¦ youthful stalwarts swinging shovels ni a de- < ' termined sort of way while the snow, which ^ Jlad been resting oh-:the sidewalks went ka1- plopping into, the streets. They may have wondered and in fact some inquired as to the purpose and meaning of this unusual oc-curence, but the boys in undisturbed style continued cheerily with their task. Starting at the corner of Cocoa and Caracas they clear-ed the pavement on each side out to Chocolate thence down Chocolate to the factory, re-turning to the Men's Club they cleared the walk to the P. and R. station, again back at the Club they continued the good work until the pavement to the store had been entirely cleared. Not a small job by any means and thoroughly proving the will and cheerfulness with which the work was accomplished. This-group was the "Goodwill Committee" of Hershey Post of the American Legion, a force of voluntary workers under the direction ¦? of Paul Shultz. It was Shultz, who in the last meeting of the Post suggested that in- -as-mueh-as-the-eommunifey-has-already-doue—— a great deal for the Post and in-so many different ways expressed their goodwill for the ex-service man; the Post should endeavor to do something in a tangible nature for the community. He suggested the plan of help-ing to clear sidewalks of snow as one method of expressing the thought and all members at the meeting considered it a splendid idea. Commander Garman at once " appointed "Shultz to act as Chairman of a "Goodwill Committee,",which office he accepted, upon receiving the assurance from the members that they would lend a hand whenever the opportunity presented irself. The firs t op-portunity was presented on last Wednesday evening and true to their promise the fellows were on the job, results (of which are above " cited. / In this group were: Paul Shultz, George Hertch, Ahiir Fidferrifohil -Shearer, Robert Sattazahn, George Lafferty, Elmer Swartz, R. Berliner, Robert Auman, John Brenberger. and Howard Bomgardner. Acting as a de-tached part of the committee were Grover Sheckart and Edwin Schwenk, who on East Areba Ave., cleared the sidewalks from the Industrial School Road up to the first homes. •The example thus set hy these young fellows should prove worthy of emulation by • our entire citizenry and especially by those among us who to judge from appearances do no believe in clearing the sidewalks of snow. Yes, there are certain of our citizens who prefer to permit the sun to do the work. By, cutting a path no wider than the shovel with which they may be Working or by shoveling-no snow whatever, they 'pass-the-buck' to Old Sol, a process that is slow and exceedingly uncomfortable to pedestrians. If any of those citizens who happen to be of this type have very good reasons, either sickness, lack of time, etc., etc., they should communicate with any of the members of the Hershey Post and it is our belief the Goodwill Committee will supply the necessary man-power. Shoveling snow is not an extremely difficult task nor is much time required to clean fifty or sixty feet of sidewalk and we hope that we all may do our bit throughout the remaining portion of the Winter season in keeping our sidewalks free of snow and thereby helping to make walking more comfortable and safer. MEETING HERSHEY POST Hershey Post, No. 880; American Legion, will meet in regular monthly session in . Post Headquarters, on Tuesday evening, February 28. It is expected the entertainment Com-mittee will have an interesting report to rciul covering the Washington's Birthday Danco. There are numerous questions of business to be presented and on present indications the meeting promises to be a busy one. Alj members are urged to attend. OLIVETS LOSE ONE AT MARIETTA x. The Olivets lost one to Marietta on last Wednesday evening playing on their op-ponents door. At half time the score was tie at 14. The game was really determined on foul shooting and if the Olivets could have done as well as in the Steelton game when they caged () out of 10 tries, th ey would have come home with the bacon. However, Nineo the best they could do in this respect was 8 out of 22 tries while their opponents caged 1-1 out of the same number of tries, the game wont to the river aggregation.

OLIVETS TAKE STEELTON MEASURE I ¦ • ' The Olivets took the measure of the Steel-ton five on the local floor on Friday evening by the score of 87 to 28. It was a fast played game with both sides fighting hard to come through with a win. Miserable luck in shooting was the Olivet's portion in the first half with the result that at half time they led by a margin of only one point. They were a bit more fortunate in the second frame and gradually drew away from their opponents who weie desperately striving to overcome the lead. The game though fast and closely contested was very cleanly played. Strine was big gun in the green artillery, caging seven two-pointers, while E. Krout, who leads the league in scoring, was high scorer for the visitors. The lineup and summary: ' Steelton FdG FIG TP Sellers , . . . F 2 1 5. E. Krout P 5 . 3 13 Albright C 1 0 2 Boyels.,.

Invitations had been sent out to a group
of friends to attend a "Miscellaneous Wool--
worth Surprise Shower" to be tendered Mrs.
Winfield Zimmerman, a bride of several
months, and also a daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Daniel Hershey. The Party was to be held
at the parental home on Chocolate Ave.,
with Miss Virginia Hershey as hostess.
Precisely as planned the guests assembled
and in cautious manner approached the
Hershey homestead, gaining admittance the
while the unsuspecting Mrs. Zimmerman
was out on a prearranged mission. She
returned in the logical sequence of events
and as she casually strolled into the home
was pounced upon by many forms springing
out from behind doors, chairs and other places
of hiding, while the air was rife with shouts
of laughter and merriment. Many tokens
of friendship were then presented to her and
after she had acknowledged her gratitude
in generous terms a. program which enfolded
¦genuine.deUght-and-enjoyment was started.
• . During the evening's program Miss Shultz
was called to the door, a messenger having
a telegram to deliver. She hastily opened
the envelope, unfolded the telegram and read:
"There is hereby announced the engagement
of our daughter, Miss Virginia, to Mr. J.
Earl Klinger, Sincerely, Mr, and Mrs. Daniel
Hershey." With a great whoop Miss Shultz
burst into the room where the guests were
assembled, shouted the glad news and passed
round to the excited assemblage the authori-tive
"wire." Congratulations were showered
upon Miss Virginia, after which a course of
delicious refreshments was served.
The list of guests included : Myra Ebersole
Hummelstown; Ethel Fultz and Esther Hoff-man,
Middletown; Violet Behm, Buth Shultz,
Lillian Lebo, Helen Bender, Mrs. J. W.
Dressier, Mrs. Irvin Slesser, Kathryn
-Leithiser, Alma Drescher, Goldie Habecker,
Mrs. Harry Boyer, Lydia Weltmer, Verna
I Rodgers, and Eleanor .Wright. .
MACNIDER'S WARNING
In a telegram that admits no doubt as to
its purpose, meaning and implied warning,
Commander Hanford MacNider, of the
American Legion, serves notice on the Presi-dent
that the Bonus Bill must.be passed and
passed now. He says he speaks for 25,000-
000 people, 5,000,000 former service men
and 20,000,000 members' of their families.
Throughout his telegram is menacing,
bristling, brisque and ugly. It repeats the
familiar bonus arguments and stresses very
heavily that always effective statement—:
when you have something you want to put
over—that the "interests" are against you.
Commander MacNider has been taking that
tack recently. ~
His reference to the mainsprings of oppo-sition
is pure buncombe. It is cheap petti-foggery
and a dangerous outgiving. Selfish
or not, bonus opposition is widespread, ex-tending
even into the Legion itself. How-ever,
his statement about compensation to
veterans of other wars leads to comparisons,
illuminating if not always flattering to the
present bonus hunt, -
We began paying war pensions July 1,
1790. In 1013, 123 years afterward, the
total paid out to all war pensioners for that
full period amounted to $4,457,539,824. We
began paying Civil War pensions in 1802,
and in 1913, over fifty years later, these had
cost us $4,294,594,944.
Now, some forty months after the armis-tice
of 1918, the Nation is asked to pay out
at least $2,500,000,000, possibly $5,000,-
000,O0O,at once, and without the shadow
of pledge or guarantee that a pension-bonus-compensation
lobby will not be in Wash-ington
every year for the next fifty years.
Forty months after the end of the great war
the Nation is asked to pay but approximately
half us much in a bonus as the Revolution,
the War of 1818, the Mexican War, Civil
War, War with Spain, the Philippine In-surrection
and A scoe of Indian wars have
cost us.in pensions all together in 130 years.
Civil War veterans were pensioned for
disability for a generation after that strug-gle.
It was not until 1000, forty years after
Appomattox, that pensions were given to
soldiers because of the disability of age. Men
were made to show that they were disabled
before they could get on the pension rolls.
Ho will do better to go along with pleas
that are demands with warnings wri tten
through every line of them. In spite of the
fact tnat the Legion includes but one in every
five of the former service men, he can get
the car of Washington. His best lino is to
use the blackjack ; his strongest hope is to
intimidate Congress, and his bes.t clianco is
to bring the harassed legislator tp see that he
can swap a bonus law for votes that will put
him backin Congress, : •

For the various booths, particularly the
Fishing Pond, and Candy and Cakes'many
articles will be needed that can- be very
.easily contributed by the people of Hershey

a Fishing Pond is and if we will take the tune
we will all be able to find something between
the cellar and the attic that may be very well
used in this booth. Please wrap it up and
send or give it tp some member of the Fire
Company and it will find its way to the proper
destination. As to cakes, candy etc., the
Fire Laddies will greatly appreciate any
donation. Postcard your good intention to
the Company and they will provide the means
of conveying your donation to the Hall.
Remember the big opening on Saturday,
March 4, and watch bulletins and announce^
ments for more complete details. The Fire
Company is anxious to make this affair an
unqualified success and sincerely hope every
citizen—young and old—may lend enthusi-astic
support.
LECTURE IN DERRY PRESBYTERIAN
This community is being offered a rare
treat by the John Elder Men's Bible Class
of Derry Presbyterian Sunday School, when
they 'will present oil Thursday, March 2, the
Hon. Elwood T. Bailey, in his famous lecture
"Getting Home from Third." The lecture
will be held in the Presbyterian Church,
starting at 8:00 o'clock. There will be no
admission charged but a voluntary offering
will be received.
Since the days in High School and University
when Mr. Bailey won prizes in oratorical
contests and intercollegiate debates, he has
been a popular speaker, having lectured in
this country and abroad.
For several years he was engaged in welfare
work, studying social, economic and industrial
conditions. Because of his interest in men
he went with our troops to France where he
was wounded and gassed. As a welfare
worker he spoke to several hundreds of
thousands of our soldiers both in fighting
zones and in our camps.
Not only is he eloquent in his delivery but
all of his lectures are full of the human thing
that people want to hear and his personality
is such that when he has finished his lecture
the listeners are conscious that they have
been living with human conditions as por-trayed
by an intensely human speaker. The
Bailey lectures are not only inspirational and
character-building but are filled with humor.
ELIZABETHTOWN OUT OP INTER-COUNTY

Basketball fans will learn with regret that
Elizabethtown, the Olivets keenest rival at
all times, has dropped out of the Inter-

taken on Monday evening at Mt. Joy, in a
meeting of the league officials. Two E-town
victories were protested by the , respectively

ARTISTIC BACKGROUNDS MARK NEW
NEILAN FILM
"Bob Hampton of Placer," the First
National attraction coming to the Central
Theatre on Saturday, "February 25, is-said
to be Marshall Neilan's most pretentious-picture,
thousands of people having been
used in its production. N . _-...
In staging this f ihn the producer has taken
particular- pains with the settings, and has
presented the exteriors amidst the most art-istic
natural backgrounds that could be found
in Montana and Arizona. New pictures hi
night photography are said to have resulted
with thousands of soldiers, Indians, horses
and buffalo taking part- in animated tableaux
of original conception.
"A Small Town Idol," one of the few pro-ductions
Mack Sennett has made in six-reel
proportions, comes to the Central Theatre
on Wednesday March 1.
With practically every member of his all-star
aggregation of funny folk enrolled in
a congenial part, there is assurance that "A
Small Town Idol" will more than make good
in the distinguished presence of its Sennett
predecessors.
Ben Turpin is the village , hero. Phyllis
Haver is his small town ideal ; Marie Prevost
is the city-girl that befriends poor Ben when
the home-folks turn him down; Charlie
Murray is the indefatigable constable; Jimmy
Finlayson is the wetched villain who concocts
all the trouble, and Kalla Pasha and Eddie
Gribbon and all the rest of the Sennett not-ables
are to be seen advantageously in the
shifting scenes that cover as many places as
are usually revealed in a half-dozen "problem
plays" wherein the slums and the green fields
are visited.
P. O. S. OF A. NEWS
Sunday evening, February 26, will be
P. O. S. of A. night at th^ First United
Brethren Church, when the pastor, the Rev.
Dr. W- E. Daugherty, will preach a sermOn
prepared especially for presentation to
members of this patriotic order. Officers of
Hershey Camp, No. 705 trust that all local
Patriots will make it an obligation to at tend
this service.
All other members of the P. O. S. of A,, no
matter , what Camp they may be affiliated
with are very cordially invited to attend this
service with the local Camp, Invitations
have been sent to Lemoyne Camp, No. 405,
and to the members and uniform rank of
Harrisbuj-g Commandery, No. 01. It is
anticipated many of these men will attend
the service and it h expected the church will
be filled to capacity.
On Just Sunday evening, a P. O. S. of A.

youthful stalwarts swinging shovels ni a de- < '
termined sort of way while the snow, which
^
Jlad been resting oh-:the sidewalks went ka1-
plopping into, the streets. They may have
wondered and in fact some inquired as to the
purpose and meaning of this unusual oc-curence,
but the boys in undisturbed style
continued cheerily with their task. Starting
at the corner of Cocoa and Caracas they clear-ed
the pavement on each side out to Chocolate
thence down Chocolate to the factory, re-turning
to the Men's Club they cleared the
walk to the P. and R. station, again back at
the Club they continued the good work until
the pavement to the store had been entirely
cleared. Not a small job by any means and
thoroughly proving the will and cheerfulness
with which the work was accomplished.
This-group was the "Goodwill Committee"
of Hershey Post of the American Legion, a
force of voluntary workers under the direction ¦?
of Paul Shultz. It was Shultz, who in the
last meeting of the Post suggested that in-
-as-mueh-as-the-eommunifey-has-already-doue——
a great deal for the Post and in-so many
different ways expressed their goodwill for
the ex-service man; the Post should endeavor
to do something in a tangible nature for the
community. He suggested the plan of help-ing
to clear sidewalks of snow as one method
of expressing the thought and all members
at the meeting considered it a splendid idea.
Commander Garman at once " appointed
"Shultz to act as Chairman of a "Goodwill
Committee,",which office he accepted, upon
receiving the assurance from the members
that they would lend a hand whenever the
opportunity presented irself. The firs t op-portunity
was presented on last Wednesday
evening and true to their promise the fellows
were on the job, results (of which are above "
cited. /
In this group were: Paul Shultz, George
Hertch, Ahiir Fidferrifohil -Shearer, Robert
Sattazahn, George Lafferty, Elmer Swartz,
R. Berliner, Robert Auman, John Brenberger.
and Howard Bomgardner. Acting as a de-tached
part of the committee were Grover
Sheckart and Edwin Schwenk, who on East
Areba Ave., cleared the sidewalks from the
Industrial School Road up to the first homes.
•The example thus set hy these young
fellows should prove worthy of emulation by •
our entire citizenry and especially by those
among us who to judge from appearances do
no believe in clearing the sidewalks of snow.
Yes, there are certain of our citizens who
prefer to permit the sun to do the work. By,
cutting a path no wider than the shovel with
which they may be Working or by shoveling-no
snow whatever, they 'pass-the-buck' to
Old Sol, a process that is slow and exceedingly
uncomfortable to pedestrians. If any of
those citizens who happen to be of this type
have very good reasons, either sickness, lack
of time, etc., etc., they should communicate
with any of the members of the Hershey Post
and it is our belief the Goodwill Committee
will supply the necessary man-power.
Shoveling snow is not an extremely difficult
task nor is much time required to clean fifty
or sixty feet of sidewalk and we hope that we
all may do our bit throughout the remaining
portion of the Winter season in keeping our
sidewalks free of snow and thereby helping
to make walking more comfortable and safer.
MEETING HERSHEY POST
Hershey Post, No. 880; American Legion,

There are numerous questions of business to

on foul shooting and if the Olivets could have
done as well as in the Steelton game when
they caged () out of 10 tries, th ey would have
