Central High, 1918 Interscholastic
League football champion is tie with
Northeast High in the 1919 campaign
xfor the Ellis A. Gimbel trophy. The
elevens have played one league game
apiece, each defeating Frankford Highs
..peppery but 'puny team. Scores: North
east, 2; Frankford, 0; Central, 10;
Erankford 0.
The Crimson and Gold proved better
mudders than the Pioneers yesterday
afternoon during drizzle on a water
soaked, heavy, slippery and slushy field.
~ was only the dogged, gritty and game
exhibition tbot put By nctor Coach eises
heavy eleven from winning by bigger
score. Outweighed at least ten pounds
to a man, the Frankforders did not
stop battling until the final whistle, and
they deserved lot of credit ia their
defeat.
Central outplayed Frankford from
the start. But when it came to cx-
hibitions of speed the petit Pioneers
were not far behind. For instance, in
the first period Frankford men fell on
Central fumbles no less than three
times. And the Gieges gridders also
. sprang surprise by holding the cham =
pions scoreless in the opening quarter.
Eddows Hard to Stop.
Capt. Paul Eddows, who would give
any college fullback a tough tussle for
his job, was Central's big ground gain
er. He is a hard man to stop. Weigh
ing about 100 pounds. Paul ripped
through Frankford's fighting but light
line time and again. Paul scored the
first touchdown for the Mirrors in the
second period. plunging off tackle from
the eight yard mark. Central's second
touchdown in this period also came as O
result of Eddow's terrific line smashes
He placed the ball within scoring dis
tance for Harris, who crashed through
from the six yard line.
Fumbling again marred Central,
play in the third quarter. And once
more the frisky Frankforders showed
their brillancy in garnering the pig
skin when it was "anybody's ball." Ii
this round Central again was helt
scoreless.
But the heavy battering ram lik,
line crashing of Central's husky back
field broke down Frankford's defense il
the final frame and Saunders was abl,
to add third touchdown to Central,
score. Saunders missed two out of thre,
attempts at goal from touchdown. max

 T suppose Mrs. Collier has spent great deal of time up here with her brother"
 First time she was ever here. so far as know" said Peter, and Barnes promptly took up his weaving once more.
 With one exception, he decided, the entire company at Green Fancy was involved in the conspiracy The ex- eeption was Miss Cameron. It was quite clear to him that she had been misled or betrayed into her present position; that trap had been set for her and she had walked into it blind ly, trustingly. This would seem to es- tablish, beyond question that her eap- ture and detention was vital to the in- terests of the plotters; otherwise she would not have been lured to Green Fancy under the impression that she was to find herself among friends and supporters. Supporters That word started new train of thought He could hardly wait for the story that was to fall from her lips.
 By the way, Peter, it has just oc- cured to me that may be able to give you a job in case you are let out by MT. Curtis. I can't say definitely until I have communicated with my sister, who has summer home in the BerkShires."
 'Tll be much obliged, sir. Course I won't say word. Will I find you at the tavern if I get my wallxin, papers soon?'
 "Yes. Stop in to see me tomorrow if you happen to be passing"
 Barnes said good night to the man and entered the tavern a few minutes later. Putnam Jones was behind the desk and facing him was the little book agent.

 Sprouse shook hands with his vic- tim.

 Sorry, Mir. Sprouse, but it is half past eleven o'clock. and am dog tired. You will have to excuse me-"
 Tomorrow morning will suit me-" said Sprouse cheerfully, If 1t suits you"
