Get set.
Real football tomorrow.
Camp Curtin VS.. Edison.
First annual championship battle
for Junior High title.
Football fans have had much to
talk about this season. Techs work
is putting them at the top for scho-
lastic honors, but there is to be a
battle inwhich there is just as strong
interest. This game takes place to-
morrow afternoon, and all Harris
burg will turn out to see the first
annual battle between Camp Curtin
and Edison for the local Junior
championship. Play will start at 3
o'clock at Island field.
On the east side will be lined the
student body of Camp Curtin, win
ners of the toss this year. They will
have a band, big cheer crowd and
some big noise devices. Edison will
be Just as busy on the west side OF
the field and will have large stu
dent following. Both schools will
parade to. the island, starting their
respective professions at O'CLOCK.
Chances Are Even
To pick the winner would be some
task. Both teams have had the serV-
ices of coaches who have won fame
in football. Shorty" Miller, former
Central High and Penn State star,
is directing Edison; while Horace
Geisel, former football and basket
ball star, is looking after Camp Cur
tin. In addition to each team being
a winner in most of the games play
ed. there have been hard, daily
scrimmages equal to any game. The
one desire of each coach has been to
produce something extraordinary in
a junior grid eleven. There will be
stars on both teams. 1t is the gen.
eral belief that there will be thrills
tomorrow. Neither coach has an
nounced definitely the lineup, but
here are the players who have been
picked to be in shape for the great
game:
