High School Eleven Expects Year
10 be BeSf---By L. M. Wickers

With the preliminary games on the
schedule of the Wilmington High
School over. the gridiron supporters
are now preparing for the games with
their old rivals and throughout Old
Home Week the team will drill its
old formations along with several
new ones on the Front and Union
streets field. DR.. Spear has selected
his first and second squads and the
boys get down TO good stiff scrim-
mage daily.
During last week several of the de-
fects shown in the Central High
School game were patched up, back
field men shifted to the line, and line
men shifted into the backheld, maxi
ing a much stronger offensive as well
AS defensive team
The victory OF the High School team
over Vineland on Friday was almost
farce. The visitors, with two excep-
tions, had no knowledge of football
and could not afford the local boys
fair practice Despite the fact that
Coach Speer sent in several second
string men a AZ to victory was reg
istered Every formation and trick
play went for large gains and the stu
dent body expressed satisfaction with
its representatives.
On Saturday afternoon of this
week the cherry and white team will
go TO West Chester and meet the gar
net and white eleven of that place.
The local team will be accompanied
| by a faithful band of rooters and ex-
poets to spring few surprises on the
Chester county team.
From West Chester reports it
| seems that the team of the place is
! primed for the fray. The eleven is
far from green and has the ambition
] firmly imbedded of at least holding
the Wilmington boys to tie score,
or possibly running up a few points
in their own favor.
Coach Speer in speaking of the
High School team said: MY team is
strong and fast when working right
and should clean up everything in
sifht throughoIt the balance of the
season.
In Mike" Fidance at left halfback,
who is a veteran from last years
I team, Speer has a star. Fidance play
J ed a rafting good game last season
and at present he is surprising his
former performances in every way
He keeps his opponents going at all
times and can be counted upon to
carry the ball for a gain at any time
Captain Mason, at left halfback. is
speedy on his feet and a veteran from
last season. II was his work that
helped the team to let the heavy Cen
tral High School boys down to the 20
to 0. score. This boy will bear watch
ing in all of the games, and barring
accidents. will prove his worth in the
games to come.
BackiieId Stars.
Mid Graves, at quarterback, is q
good man for running the team. He il
handicapped somewhat in size bu
gets his plays off in good, quick, fash
ion, and on the defense is a game
tackler.
Polly" Matthews came into thu
limelight in Fridays game from th'
fullback position. His line plungini
