To cover the gloom that had pre-

At the first half the score stood 20

Cherry and White was represented by
an extraordinarily fast quintet.
The Philadelphians had hard time
in defeating the locals. AT the be-
ginning of the game, both teams had
a bitter fight TO secure the first point.
Craig broke the ice with his only
point of the day from the 15-foot line.
The score became zone all" when
Cleland rolled in a pointer. Mat DON
ahue brought his aggregation to the
limclight by strolling in a corking
two pointer from a difficult angle. The
game see-sawed until the last seconds
of play when Merkle of the Quakers
ran his team ahead and ended the
score of the first half, II to 10, in his
teams favor.
In the second half it seemed as
though the local quintet could not
make any headway. The only thing
they we're able to do was to score a
field goal, by Daley, and two fouls by
Donohue and hold Philadelphia to 2S
points.

In the second game Chester tried

the sturdy locals got together and put
a blow into the camp by handing
them the short end Of the score, 45

The team practically opened its

NEW YORK, March 25.-Have a
look boys-and girls. too-to see if
you have an athletic heart" No, its
not one that can outjump or outrun
that OF someone else, but a real ply
sical trouble. and not a fancied i'll, ac-
cording to George l.. Meylan, physi-
cal culture and medical director at Co
lumbia University. An athletic heart"
is not romance of sport, but a Sc
rious reality, according to "Profes-
sor-Doctor" Meylan. 1t is caused,
generally, by over-exertion during
youth in athletic contests. High school
athletes are particularly prone to the
affections. Lack of examination be-
fore entering athletics is the princi-
pal cause. Too early into athletics
Is another cause. Palpitation Of the
heart, fainting spells and even cur
tailment of life is the result.
