MERRITT EXPECTS
TO RETAIN TITLE
Coach Confident Penn Charter
Will Successfully Defend Aca-
demic League Diadem
CAPTAIN MITCHELL BACK
BY PAUL PREP

Penn Charter is going to retain the
Interacademic League grid diadem this
season. That is. "Dick" Merritt says
so. and Richard ought to have some
pretty good dope or something like that,
because he has been coaching the Little
! Quakers for six or seven years. during
which time the eleven has almost con
sistently annexed the football title an
nually.
/ There is quite squad of moleskin-
clad youths working out daily at Queen
| Lane-heavy boys, fast ones and num-
ber who are both weighty and fleet.
Furthermore, Merritt is having the
benefit of several other coaches, includ-
| ing Messrs. Dresser and Wight, and
| Sitley. former star back of Penn Char
ter championship teams.
Mitchell Among Those Present
Among those present when the daily
roll is called prior to practice is Nit
chell, who halfbaCked last year and
halfbacked very well. Because of. Nit
chell's splendid sensational and won
derful playing; also mis- popularity
among the veteran men of the eleven, he
was elected captain. Merritt says that
Mitchell will be in good condition when
Penn Charters titular tilts roll around.
and that this youngster will be one of
the scintillating lights on the gridiron
this season.
November Z is the date of Penn
Charters initial championship contest
on this years schedule, when the
Churchmen eleven will be on the other
side Of the line. Episcopal has a big
strong team and it stands out as Penn
Charters most dangerous contender for
the crown. Germantown Academy and
Friends Central will be played respec
lively on October IA and October 81, in
the other blue ribbon battles. German
towns game will be played at German
town. while the other brace of battles
will be put on at Queen Lane.
p. I. ID. Has Open Dates
Pennsylvania Institute for Deaf finds
three open dates on its football sched- =
ule this season, through a misunder
standing. The y. I. d. eleven finds
that it has no games scheduled for Oc
tober IL, 18 and 27. High and prep
school teams in Philadelphia and dis
trict having similar open engagements
may fill in with the mute athletes by
calling the football manager, Chestnut
Hill 700.
Soccer is to become a major sport al
South Philadelphia High School this
season after lapse Of two years. Prac-
tice has been going on for several weeks
Zorn will lead the South Philly soccer
ties and among those who look like reg
ulars for the eleven are Wienblum, Co
herman, Scola, Weiss and Scheberg
Stein is another youngster who is show
ing promising form.

teur champion, and Chick Evans, whom
he succeeded, may enter the Piping

ers would meet tomorrow or Saturday,
