High Gridders Hold Lancaster Team
To 0-0 Score; Meet Columbia Saturday
Fighting desperately to keep the
strong eleven of Lancaster Catholic
High School from scoring, Lititz High
School gridders displayed such a stong
defense in the gam'e played on the
Springs Park Gridion Saturday that
the Lancaster team was unable to
cross the goal.
Six different times the visiting foot-ball
team came within scoring dstance
and each time the local boys braced
to hold the rivals, f o r downs or fumb-les.
At one time, wth the ball on the
one yard line in Catholic High's pos-session,
the Lititz line held the
rushes of Zeigler and Kirchner, the
two best ground gainers of the visit-ing
team, for four successive downs.

Dennis and Todd, proved too much for

Three Score Rooters To
See Lititz-Columbia Game
More than three seore rooters
are expected to accompany the
Lititz High School football team
to Columbia Saturday when the
local team meets the river town
High School team in what prom-ises
to be an interesting battle.
Spectators who witnessed the
game with Franklin & Marshall
Academy Reserves, two weeks
ago, and those who saw the
scoreless tussle between the red
and black team and the Catholic
High School, of Lancaster, last
week, are confident that the
local boys will give Columbia a
good game, even though they
are heavy favorites to win.
A last minute spurt on the part of
the Lititz team netted three first
downs in rapid succession, but the
whistle blew just as the march down
the field had advanced the ball from
the 50 to the 35 yard line. Bachman
led the last minute rally. Thirteen
first downs for both teams were re-corded,
8 for the visitors and 5 for
Lititz High.

Big Coronation Contest Gets Under way;
Who's Going To Win? Well, Someone Is
. . . and we take great pleasure in
crowning you, , King
Moraus, and you, ,
Queen Joy, of the great Hallowe'-
en Mardi Gras of this, the 11th
Lititz Community Show. . . .
Whose names shall we put in the
blank space abovoe ?
The great contest is on folks, and it
is going to be some race, for there are
hundreds of boys and girls in our com-munity
who are working hard to be-come
the King and Queen of the big
Parade on the last night of our Com-munity
Show, October 31st.
The Coronation Contest opened this
week with the preliminary announce-ment
in last week's RECORD and
already there are many enrolled.
There are more girls than boys, how-ever,
and that has to be remedied,
for it is open to everyone, between
the ages, of 14 and 20. Don't hesi-t
a t e to enter.
The only work to be done in the
contest is to sell votes at 5 cents each
to your family, friends, relatives,
strangers or anybody who will buy—
and you can sell as many to a person
as that person will buy. The boy and
girl selling the greatest number of
votes, will be crowned the King and
Queen, each will receive a silver lov-ing
cup, will ride at the head of the j
Hallowe'en Parade and will rule in
general over the festivities of the eve-ning.
That isn't hard, is it? And as for
the buyers of the votes you sell, each
one gets a chance to win a fine radio
with each ticket he or she buys. Im-press
that upon your friends and you
will have no trouble at all.
The first thing you have to do is to
enter. Go to any store where you see
a sign about the contest or go to Mr.
Nary, of the Harris Store, or Mr.
Leiby, of the Full-Worth Store, and
enroll your name and get some votes
to sell. After that it all depends on
you. Don't let your friends get ahead
of you. Enter now and work hard.
Coronation Contest Rules
The contest shall be open to all un-married
boys and girls of Lititz and
vicinity between the ages of 14 and
20.
Each contestant will sell votes at 5
cents each and fill in the name and
address of the purchaser on the stub
of the vote. These stubs shall be
turned in to the manager of the con-test
and each contestant will be giv-en
credit of one vote for each vote
sold.
Contest will close at 7 P. M. Sat-urday,
October 31, and at 8 P. M. the
