BEST SEASON AT
LEBANON VALLEY
Morrison of Steelton Favorite
in List of Candidates For
Captain

Annville, Pa. Dec. 4. With the
Bucknell-Lebanon Valley game at
Lewisburg on Thanksgiving. Lebanon
Valley brought to close the best grid
iron season in the schools history
One more question remains to be
settled. that of captain, and the honor
will likely fall to Morrison, left end of
the team.
Morrison is a Steelton lad, and prior
to entering college played four years
of football under Coach Taggart. By
many enthusiasts he is considered the
best end Lebanon Valley ever had. Be-
cause of his consistent playing and
popularity with the players, the chances
are that he will be elected captain for
next season.
Lebanon Valley taxes the honor of
being the only team on the Army
schedule that the West Pointers Were
unable to score touchdown on. While
the local lads lost, the score was to
0. The Army team had several of the
best players in the country, and won
nine straight contests. The splendid
game put up by the locals has made it
possible for the Blue and White to
make another trip up the Hudson next
Fall. The one big reverse of the sea-
son was with Dartmouth. The change
to the high altitude was given the
excuse for the high score run by the
New Hampshire laws Another big con-
quest was the to tie with Lehigh.
at South Bethlehem. The eleven won
five games, lost four and tied one.
Next season will likely see the team
coached by Roy Guyer pitted against
the Carlisle Indians, Army, Lehigh, La
berg, Villanova. Susquehanna and Buck

TECH STUDENTS
ELECT LEADER
Reese Lloyd Is Favorite; Bas-
ketball Season Starts Friday;
Strong Lineup

With the return of the football
equipment to-day at the Technical high
school. the question of a captain yet
remained to be settled. This will likely
be an easy matter as Reese Lloyd
seems to be the logical choice.
Lloyd has played on the squad for
two seasons. and will be a senior next
year Nine of the eleven players who
started the game against Central will
be lost by graduation, while most of
the reserves will remain as a nucleus.
Lloyd. Beck. Wilsbach. Harry Miller,
Bell, Lingle, Hoerner, Elmer, Peiffer,
Lauster and Frock make a round dozen
who saw lots of service for Tech this
season.
Tnke Up Basketball
The Maroon athletes will now turn
their attention to basketball, and their
contests will be staged at the City
Grays Armory. Two things to be de-
cided are a captain and coach for the
squad. Eddie" Harris will likely lead
the five to represent Tech, while
Shorty" Miller looms prominent as the
tutor of the squad. In addition to

Americans. every major team is repre-
sented. He predicts a successful year
and many new features of great bene-
fit to players.
The following officials have been
picked to look after the high school
games this year: Fluhrer, York:
Smith, Lebanon; Taggart. Steelton;
Geisel. Harrisburg Central; Adams,
Reading; Fl. Miller, Harrisburg Tech
nical; Arthurs, Harrisburg, substitute.
The Rensselaer, Polytechnic Institute
will award cup to the winner of the
series this season.
There will be no change in the ma
tional commission this season. Reports
say that Barney Dreyfuss has failed
in his efforts TO show cause for
change. new contract has been
adopted providing for pay for injured
players.
Central High students gave the var
sity players great reception this
morning. They cheered the players,
gave numerous yells and repeated
songs that made hit on Thanksgiving
Day. Members of the Central High
faculty were also strong in praises for
the good work. At Tech enthusiasm
was also high and it was some time
before studies were resumed.

Bear Beats Farmers Time
and Gets Stock of Honey

Ridgway Pa, Dec 4. - Charles
Stink, of Clermont, is one Elk county
farmer who does not believe that it
pays to leave honey in a bee tree too
long after it is discovered. While
Stink was hunting near Clermont he
found a large quantity of honey in
the trunk of an old tree.
He marked the tree, intending to
return and get the honey Thursday
he started for the tree with two pals.
He found the tree quickly, and was
astonished to find a big black bear
on the job disposing of the sweets.
He ran home for gun, but when he
returned the bear had made off, after
devouring all the honey.

LINEUP OF ALL
SCHOLASTIC STARS
First Pick of Players Who
Were Prominent During
Season
BY "WELLY."

In answer to many requests by let
ter, postcard appeals and queries over
the telephones, an all-scholastic line
up is given to-day for consideration.
This annual selection is always a one
man opinion. There are football en-
thusiasts who have other selections. 1t
is all a question as to how people see
the games.
Considering that the local elevens
had varied schedules, picking players
for an all-star team is rather difficult.
First there is the triangular series.
An all-scholastic eleven from Central,
Tech and Steelton might and might
not show up better than an eleven
made up from all teams played by
these three schools.
Harrisburg Academy Strong .
The Harrisburg Academy eleven
which had a schedule all it's own, and
did not play any of the local high
schools, must also be considered. In
making UP an all-scholastic eleven-a
players versatility is factor. Some
base a stars reputation on points

is also important. In summing up
the work of players who have been in
the lineup in most every game. here is

( There are others who in the opinion
lof many would make good on an all
lstar team, and are looked upon as
better than second team men. This
list would include Captain Harris,
fTech; Captain Hilton, Central; Nor
lrett, Steelton; Garman, Tech; Gipple,
Tech, and Shaffer, Steelton.
Outside of the triangular series and
sincluding the Harrisburg Academy
lgood selections would include, Men
