Friday night will be Soldiers
Night at the Allison Hill baseball
game when Galahad and Reading
will clash in the contest that was
postponed from last evening. At
this game an entire bleacher will

will place their strongest lineups
on the field for the benefit of the

Big Wrestling Show With the
Best of Local Talent Next Week

The next wrestling show here
takes place at Chestnut Street Audi
tcrium one week from tonight and
it is to be marked for local talent.
1T may be said for wrestling that
the husky professionals gave splen-
did exhibitions and there is no com-
plant concerning them as is COM
mon over boxing where the contest
ants often fail to respond, necessi-
tating a substitute. This wrestling
event will stage the famous athelete,
Carl Beck, who has now done most
everything in sports except bust the
clouds in a sky-cart, and Red"
Miller, who holds an equally eX-
alted position in Lebanon.
The premier bout should be even
more exciting, for Jack Ozar, who
was camoufiaged for some months
as a State policeman, is now in the
arena again and has been slamming
the best of them. He bars no one,
ard he will give a hard battle to
"Plnkie" Gardner, who claims the
middleweight title. Ozar is in fine
shape, little heavier than when he
downed Tom Draak, who had near
ly fifty pounds on him. Jack lays
claim, himself, to the national mid
dleweight title.
Twixt Miller and Beck, there has
long been keen rivalry; each has his
adherents and the big hall will he
filled with rooters for Tech Highs

Baseball Fan Says
Galahad Is Unfair
to St. Mary's Club

Sporting Editor, Dear Sir:
Just a few words in regards to the
baseball game between the st.
Mary's team Of Steelton, and the
Galahad team. ! noticed in the
morning paper that the st. Mary's
team protested this contest. Being
a true baseball fan I think it should
be the st. Mary's game without a
protest Any true sporting man
could see that the game was taken
from the visitors and given to the
Galahad team, in the last inning.
1t was entirely too dark to play in
the sixth inning without making the
visitors play the seventh inning. In
the first place the league officials
should be glad to secure the Steelton
team in the league on the visitors
own expense. The brand of ball
they put up should keep them in first
place. think Steelton's manager was
too proud to quit after the game was
cinched in the fifth inning as it was
dark then. The Galahad manage
ment should be satisfied to have the
game played over as any other team
wouldn't stand for it without get
ting the game on their card as vic
tory. Hoping the league will live
up to its clean name, I remain a
true fan for clean sports in Harris
burg.

Captain Beck, with five other star
Technical High School track ath-
letes, will attempt the most difficult
feat ever tried by Maroon athletes
when they will go to Princeton Uni
versity Saturday morning in an en-
deavor to win the annual scholastic
meet held by Princeton in the uni
versity stadium.
Encouraged by their victory at
Swarthmore. Tech hopes to land the
biggest honors ever brought to this
city. Pitted against the cream OF
the school boys of the East. Tech
will oppose Mercersburg, Exeter,
Andover, Phillips Exeter, Hill, Beth
lehem Prep, Wenonah, Newark and
the pick of the New York State
schools. No better athletes are
found in the East than represent
these schools.
Rumor has it that Mercersburg is
smarting under the defeat handed
to Jimmy Curran's lads at Swarth-
more last Saturday, and, as the
Mercersburgers have four legs on a
cup that must be won five times,
they will send twenty -five-man
team to the meet in a desperate ef-
fort to bring the cup home perma-
nently.
OF course, Captain Beck will be
the big point-winner, yet Zip"
Malick is feared almost as much.
And then, too, Karl Hoffsommer is
gradually working himself into a
class of his own in the mile and
half-mile.

"I want to see clean baseball here;
there is too much batting of the

rough actions. The game must be

and the shot put. AS the two lat
ter events will be pulled off in the

events. Zip" Malick will put on

the mile and half-mile events. Gar
rett will be entered in the same
events with zip"
Ken" Boyer will try his skill in
the high jump, pole vault and 12O
hurdles. The final man of the sex
tet will be Tony Wilsbach. He will
throw the hammer and shot. When
it is considered that Tech will go
against the class of the East instead
of high schools as 1t should, and
then that there will be as many as
tw, Nty-fiye athletes representing
some of the institutions, whereas
Tech will enter but six, chances do
not look so promising. While odds
are against Tech, the student body
looks to the sturdy sons of Tech to
repeat the performance of last Sat
urday at Swarthinore. Four places
will count, with five, three, two and
one points being awarded. Gold.
silver and bronze medals of the
Princeton die will be given, as well
as the handsome trophy that Mer-
cersburg hopes to get.

Meat Cause Of

acid which almost paralyzes the
kidneys in their efforts to eXpel it
from the blood. They become slug

a dull misery in the kidney region.

tongue is coated and when the wealth

The urine gets cloudy, full of sed-
ment, the channels often get sore and
irritated, obliginn you to seek relief
two or three times during the night
To neutralize these irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the bOdy'S urinOus waste get four
ounces Of Jad Salts from any phar-

glass OF water before breakfast for

act fine, This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and has

stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize the acids in urine, so it no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
