therefore that a test of voting strength
would be reached the first week.

MISS FAYE CONNER
DOES STUNTS OVER
CITY IN AIRPLANE
Was the Only Woman Passenger
That Lieut.. Cameron
Took Up Sunday

Miss Faye Conner was the only wo
man passenger who went aloft yester
day with Lieut. J. C. Cameron at Fort
Lincoln.
Miss Connershas been planning her
aerial journey for some time and was
on the flying field early Sunday af-
ternoon. Without showing the slight
est sign OF fear, she quickly climbed
into the forward seat, frightened the
life belt around her and was ready
for her ride.
Lieut.. Cameron shot around the
field several times to get altitude, flew
over the penitntiary and then over the
city where he did a few stunts for
Miss Conner's benefit. They returned
to the field and landed safely after
making an exceptionally steep nose
dive and glide to earth.
MY most wonderful experience"
was Miss Corners comment as she
alighted from the ship "Now | know
why the birds always appear to be
happy. Nothing know of compares
with the thrills a person gets when
riding in an airplane doing stunts"

ELeUen Picked for the 1919 Season
SECOND TEAM
BN PAUL PREP

Both are splendid lincmcn and would
prove a stalwart defense for any high
school eleven. Kindrcgan. of West
Catholic. is brainicr player than
either of those mentioned, but is too
light. Kindregan, McClcrnan and Tay-
lor are the second choice candidates.
Kindregan, although the lightcSt, pos
esses the necessary fighting instinct, is
Z fair kicker and his work as captain of
w. &. II. entities him to first conSd
Grafton. A tossup might decide between
McClernan and Taylor. McCICrnan
seems to possess u little more of the
fighting spirit of a guard than does
Taylor.
The work of De SimOnc at center has
surpassed by wide margin that of any
of the other Cpntcrs. He is very ac-
"urate paSSer and so far has failed to
cause any of the backfield men to tumble
on account of poor passing. Bergin. of
st. Joe, and Callahan. of La Sale.
wage lively duel for honOrs on the
second team. Bergip seems to have u
slight edge on Callahan, as he is quick
to charge on the defense and plugs up
holes made by opposing lincmen.
Three schools boast of good quarter
backs. In this department of the game
the teams are well fortified. La Sale,
Roman Catholic and West Catholic have
splendid players at this position.
| Woods, of West Catholic. gets the first
honors. This youngster is West Catho e.
lies mainstay at the passing game. As
an open field runner he stands head and
shoulders above his rivals. Woods is
sure handler of punts and he can be
relied upon to run them back likewise
for good gains. Feeney, of La Sale:
and Smith, of II. c. II. S. are second
team men, Feeney is given the place,
as he is good field general. sure
tacklcr and surpasses Smith in his
choice Of plays.
Oalscs at Half
Oakes gets one half as being the lead
ing scorer. the best baCkfeld man in
Catholic ranks. brilliant defensive
man and an adept at breaking up for
ward passes. 4 the other half is
placed Scanlon. of st. Joe, as lie is a
| speedy runner, a good line plunger and
strong man on the defense. Brennan
of La Sale looms up as a prospective
candidate. but he is rather slow il
starting and is not as sure a tacklel
. or as strong on the defensive as are
Oakes and Scanlon Brennan probably
is the best drop kicker in Catholic scho.
lastic ranks
McPeak. of ST. Joe. and Linaugh o
West Catholic. are two of the bes
matched candidates as running mat
for Brennan. Linaugh seems to havt
the edge. as he is heady player. a goot
passer and probably the best man il
putting opponents out of play.
Poppert. of La Sale; !. Cunning
ham. of w. c., and Kennedy, of r
c. II. s.. are the choices for fullbuck
Poppert due to his varied experience
and long scholastic career. gets frs
choice. although he is eclipsed in de
fensive work by both rivals. Cunning
ham is a fairly accurate passer and
good punter. These assets place hin
in line for the second team.

FIRST TEAM

MOT until league among Catholic
4 institutions is formed in Phila-
delphia will definite champion in Vnri-
ous sports be determined annually La
Sale may claim the 1919 gridirou dia
dem following its victory yesterday over
West Philadelphia Catholic High, but
IL the former does the chances are that
the title will be disputed--not because
La Sale actually did not show superior
form on the chalkcd- off battlefield, but
for various reasons.
While the four Catholic clevens in
Philadelphia, including Roman Catholic
High and st. Joscph's Prep, in addition
TO the aforementioned schools, did not
show up very strongly in games with
other teams. competition among them
selves was interesting. Several games
with Catholic aggregations opposing
each other were played and each con
test resulted along the lines of
'thriller.'
A number of star footballers won
their way into the Hall Of Fame Mt the
four different schools. Comparing the
PLAYERS at the eleven different positions
Is more work than fun, yet rather IN
teresting. Hence the EVENING PUBLIC
lIEDGEH AI-SulhOllt NlVNNh f'NNNN 49,

All Teams Represented
Four West Catholic stars are given
places on the first eleven. three each go
to st. Joseph's and La Sale. while
Catholic High is given one. On the sec
ond team st. Toseph's is awarded four
Jobs. La Sale and West Catholic three
and one is given Catholic High.
Irwin and Mulhern are placed on the
wing positions. Irwin is easily the peer
for this job. He is speedy, a remark =
ably sure tackler and is down under
punts like a fash. As running mate
Mulhern gets the call owing TO his eX-
perience and due to the fact that he
also possesses most of Irwin's qualities.
When it comes to choosing ends for the
second eleven a real difficulty presents
Itself. As far as Burroughs. of La sale
Is concerned no trouble presents itself
Outside of Burroughs no remarkably
good end can be found. Devine, OF 81
zoe. and Mcdonald. of West Catholic
seem to be the best bets. ,,.
For the tackles Carton and DE tllllpo
are first choice. Carton Is one or the
most aggressive and sure tacklers IN
scholastic ranks. His work has been an
outstanding feature in all OF Il. -: II
