Berry Is Most
Versatile Star
Penn. Ever Had

]. Howard Berry, the University OF
Pennsylvania star. has unquestionably
earned the title as the most versatile
athlete ever developed at the Red and
Blue institution. Berry has been such
an asset to the athletic teams of the
Quaker college that the students al
most worship the ground he walks on.
Many world-famous athletes have
worn the Red and Blue "P," including
Alvin Kraenzlein and Don Lippiucott'
hut all must bow TO the great Berry.
Besides showing unusual efficiency IN
track and field sports. Berry has
earned high praise with his playing on
football and baseball teams. Trap
shooting recently gained another en-
thusast in Berry, and no less an au-
thority than Bob" Folwell predicts
great future for him with the gun.
Berry is to be graduated from Penn
this June. but it is likely that he viii
leave college sooner, as he has list
cd in the Third Officers Training
Corps. He was the first 70 offer his
services at the university camp.
The achievements of Berry on track
and field stand out most conspicuous
ly. The year 1917 saw him establish
a precedent in the history of the Uni
yersity Of Pennsylvania relay Games
in winning the Pentathlon college
championship for the third successive
year. Included in this record was the
winning of first place in all OF the
five events that comprise the test.
feat never equalled in the history of
the games.
Berry has broad-iumped 20 feet
7 3-5 inches, thrown the iavelin l57
feet 2 inches. run 200 metres in 2? 20
seconds. tossed the discus l0S feet 912
inches and covered 800 metres IN the
sensational time of 4:29 AS. He has
run as a member of relay teams that
have defeated the pick of other col
leges.
College football enthusiasts clearly
remember the work of Berry as a
member of the Pennsylvania football
and baseball teams. His spectacular
rlaying on the backfeld of the eleven
has gained many touchdown for
Pennsylvania. He is considered such
valuable player that the offence as
a rule is built around him.
Berrys general all-around good
work on the baseball field also has
been Of a sensational character. His
extra base hits have time and again
turned defeat into victory for the Red
and Blue nine, not TO mention his
brilliant fielding at the second base

defeating the Stuyvesant High School
eleven at the Polo Grounds yesterday
by score of 13 to 0. The victory was
a stunning surprise for the Stuyvesant
boys, but they brought it upon them
selves by exhibiting the poorest form
this season.
Stuyvesant forced the issue the
greater part Of the contest, but was
guilty of many bad fumbles when
within the shadow of it's rivals goal
posts. Although the defence of each
team was on par, the Stuyvesant
backs succeeded more frequently in
gaining ground for the first downs.
Morris was ever on the alert for
fumbles by its opponents and profted
greatly thereby. Misfortune struck the
Stuyvesant eleven early in the contest,
when Brice, the star backfeld man.
was hurt and forced To retire from the
contest.
Morris gained an advantage when
il scored its first touchdown early
in the opening quarter. Receiving
the Stuyvesant kickoff, Morris at
tempted several line plays before Mul-
ligan threw a long forward pass to
Krassner, the left end. who ran forty
yards, being brought to earth on the
5-yard line. 0nx the next play Multi

BOYS FROM CAMP DEvENS RETURN
 AFTER HOLIDAY.

With sad hearts overshadowed by cheerful countenances,. approxi- mately 1,600 Bridgeport soldiers re- turned to their barracks at Camp Devens today having left this city last night. Hundreds of mothers, wives, fathers, brothers and sweethearts gathered at the station last night to see their loved ones off probably for the last time, as the majority will be Is granted. It was reported, however, that the boys might visit their homes again during the Yuletide season.
 The boys began to arrive in the city shortly after 5:30 o'clock on Wednesday. The train due here at 4:47 o'clock was nearly an hour late and as it pulled into the station 8 lusty cheer was heard above the noise and din of the engine. It was the chorus of about 200 soldiers. who had taken an earlier train. The special trains carrying the rest of the boys were due at o'clock, but did not arrive until after 10 o'clock.
 All day yesterday the streets were dotted with khaki and even the uni form of the sailor. Several hundred Bridgeport boys in the naval service enjoyed the day with their folks.
 The men were healthy looking ob- jects. Every one of the 1,800 drafted men has gained weight at Camp Devens and with bronzed skins and smiling faces were the picture of health and happiness.

DECEMBER
(I,icorporatefl> FAIRFIELD AVE. AND MIDges iE ST

The name of December for the month which will be ushered in to- morrow is no longer appropriate, for it is derived from "decem," the Latin word meaning ''ten." The name was first applied by the Romans, when the year was divided into ten months, with the addition of supplementary days to complete the period required for a revolution of the earth around the sun. When the calendar of Ro- mulus was amended in 713 B. C. by Numa Pompilius, and the year was divided into twelve months, Decem- Der became the twelfth month, but retained it's original name. The Elm second century, attempted to change the name of December to Amazon jus, in honor of a fair favorite of that name, whom he had painted to re- semb1e an Amazon. This innovation was not popular, and when Commo- dius died, from poison administered by another feminine favorite, the name of Amazonius died with him. The ancient Saxons called the last month Winter-monat, which was af- terward changed to Heligh-monat, or ed to Christianity. The modern Ger mans again changed the name to Christ-monat, because the month con- tains the anniversary of the birth of Christ.

RED FLOODED
 MEN WIN OUT
They Are Always on Top

It Is fact that red b1ooded men and women are at the top in every walk of life. Men and women with the driving force of red b1oof, rich in Iron and Phosphate do things, they get results.
 Red blooded women are the heads of the happiest and most contented homes, they shave the will and the desire to be real companions and helpmates.
 Leadership and happiness is only for the man and women who are willing to keep their blood and nerves strengthened and nourished with From and Phosphates.
 A prominent doctor says, "It is a crime that so many men and women lack the rich. red blood and strong steady nerve to achieve their ambi- tions. It Is all the more so because thin, watery blood is unnecessary, as rich, red blood and strong nerves are within the grasp of everyone. Phosphated Iron makes pure blood by making new blood. It gives strength, brings color to the cheeks, increases the weight and appetite, drives away the blues and those sleepless nights, steadies and renews your nervous energy, makes you reel like 8 live one once again."
 There must be something to it. Everyone who tries it is loud in praise of Phosphated Iron, and you have got to show people these, days.
 To insure physicians and their pa tients receiving the genuine Phos- ri1ated Iron it has been put up in capsules only. Do not allow dealers to give you pills or tablets. Insist on capsules. Hindle's Drug Stores and leading druggists everywhere.-Ad%
