guess on the weather than the stock
market.
Somehow the men in the chorus al

TRIP AWAY FOR
ST. JOHN BOYS

Emp Ryan and his speed boys, the
st. John quintet. will start on their
transforming trip tomorrow night
They will invade the little town Of
Bridgeton on Friday night and on
Saturday afternoon they Will try to
spring a victory over Wenonah. This
trip has been the center Of discussion
for the last few weeks and Coach
Ryan wishes TO prove that he has a
fast combination by capturing both
contests Bridgeton High should not
be a very hard proposition, but the
Wenonah struggle will prove the
worth Of Ryans quintet. The Wenonah
lads have been playing at a terrific
gait and have so far won every game
that they have played on their own
wooden way. PennOck, the star south
paw finger from Cedarcroft, is in their
lineup, and is said to be a wizard at
the cage game. He is a husky youth,
CARRYING six feet of solid muscle,
tinged here and there with the re-
quired number of bones. He will most
likely jump center The ST. Johns ag-
gregatiOn are not beginners at the
game either. Mark McDonough, Larry
Rigney and Jack Burke, of the famous
Brownson five, together with the cele-
brated Emp, and Bill Kyle. form their
lineup This combination looks like
an exceedingly fast one and they
should return with two scalps, safely
tucked in their belts.
