Ed HILL WILL COACH
FRANKFORT TEAM
Former Cornell Halfback Will
Also Play for Suburban
Athletic Association
MANY VETERANS IN SQUAD

Frankford \. 4. has organized for the
season and begun practice under the
direction Of Eddie" Hill. former
Cornell back.
Hill. who was known as the best de
fenSivr back in collegiate ranks while
at Ithaca. will coach and play. Nir-
tuallv the same team that enabled
frankfort to win the championship of
eastern Pennsylvania two years g and
n number of new stars furnish the ma
. tcrial from which Hill will make his
, selection.
Simondet. formerly of Lebanon Val
ley. is one of the new faces on the
squad. His work at center in the prac-
tees already held shows that the vet
Grams will have a tough time keeping
him from u regular berth. Dudley,
formerly Of Swarthmore. is another
new man who promises TO be heard
from. He PLAYS the backfcld.
New material faces a tough task to
dislodge either Earl Shirar or Allen
! Castor. the two veteran ends. Shirar
and Castor played the flank positions
for the Paris district team of the army
ambulance service and their work was
one Of the features of that aggrcga
ton. Shirar has the happy faculty
Of always seeming to be where the ball
fnlls when a forward pass is attempted.
Rarely does he drop one.
Bob" Kenny. former Northeast
/ High star, whose work at quarterback
for Frankford has been one of the main
factors in the success of the team, is
back from service overseas and ready to
take up his work of advancing the ball.

OE RAY TO MAKE
NEW RECORD
to Try again to Lotcer
Tabor's World Mile Mark
in Nationals ON Franklin

FAUORSLOOMISN 100
BY TED

w OTlU y "FCuttHb
E,RANKLIN FIELD is being groomed
for the national championships to
morrow and Saturday. but it will not
be- the track of former years. The
~groundkeepcr has Just finished putting
down n new coat of cinders and this
will leave it cuppy and hard going until
after the winter has worked them
solid.
This will go hard with Joie Ray. who
has been trying all summer to lower the
mile mark set by Norman Tabor in
1913 at Boston, of 4 10 20. Joie had
set his heart in trying for this record
in the nationals after his failure in
the McadOwbrOok games in June. when
he m~isjudged his pace and was beaten
by Jimmy Connolly, Of the Boston
A. a.
One Of the fastest fields Of miller,
ever assembled for a championship
meeting will struggle on Saturday il
this event. Some of the best miller,
Ray. will try for this title. Ray is the
favoritc in this race, but this does mo-
mean that he is the only contender.
Half Dozen Stars
Against him will be half a dozen for,
midable rivals, all prominent in tn,
nations athletic life. Jimmy Connolly
of the Boston A. A., while just out o.
school. has made a name for himsel
this summer by winning the special race
against Ray in the Meadowbrook game.
and capturing the Cornellian mile even
in New York. When Connolly bcar
Ray he was given a slight handicap or
his rival. but he held what he wa,
given throughout the race.
Eddie Fall, Western Conference,
champion. who has not done much fas
work since before the war, is also il
this race and seems to be back in shan,
again, Judging from his performance il
a mile and later in the half in the ives
a short time ago. Joe Stout, winner o
the 1900 meter race in the inter alIicC
meet. and Bobby Crawford, Lafayett,
star, are also in the mile.
Track Poor
The majority of the men are from tn,
West and have been working out on tn,
Franklin Field track. As usual. they
have found much fault with the couIrs,
and grounds in general, forgetting tina
they all have to work under the sam,
conditions. The track is slow, but thi
won't hurt the competition, and that j
what counts most.
I have picked the men that I thin
will win the different events, and hav

Meredith's Selections in
National Title Meet

based my selections mostly on my knowl-
edge of the men as competitors, taking
for granted that the men have had
enough work this summer in the many
meets to be in top condition.
In the 100 yards | have picked 10
LOOMS to win. In spite of the per-
formances of Paddock and Hayes, both
of whom are credited with 8 40 seconds
in the century. | think that Loomis will
get the title. The tall sprinter recently
ran a hundred in Chicago in 10 fiat
for timers who can be depended upon.
and that is good enough for me, since
! know that he runs to win, regardless
Of what the other fellow has done in the
past.
Ely in Quarter
MurChison is my man for the other
sprint event, but he has a hard man to
beat in Hayes. Earl Eby, who will only
run the 40, is my pick in this race
over Shea and Driscoll. Shea never
has recovered from the illness of last
winter. and Driscoll. the New England
quarter mile champion, has not had the
experience that is needed in such a
field.
Homer Baker, if in the condition he
claims. should take the half mile pro-
vided Joie Ray does not try to run this
event as well as the mile. Ray did a
half in Chicago in 1.55 20 recently
and this is better than Baker can
show now.
The weights. javelin and discus will
go to the New York AuC.. with Nc
Donald, McGrath, Bronder, Lincoln
and Miller.
West in Race
! The other events will be split up be-
tween the East and West, with the West
getting most of the places. If it were
not for the East getting so many places
in the weights, the title would go west
this year as it did last.
One battle that will cause much ex-
ritement in the field events among the
Chicago clubs will be the clash between
Sherman Landers, of the c. A. A, and
Dana Ahearn, of the illinois A. c., in
the hop -step and jump. Ahearn has
had this event all to himself for the
past ten years, but recently Landers,
who has been plugging along in second
place, sprung a surprise and beat
Ahearn by two inches.
However, this works as bad for one
as the other and the coaches will have
to switch their men accordingly.

Greatest Boxing City in the World

PHILADELPHIA is the greatest boxing city in the world. The sport is
popular, the people turn out in large numbers to sec the bouts apd tev
should lot be deprived of that form Of amusement. This summer Tho ton
notch boxers received thousands of dollars for their services, but it seems
that money is not enough. They wan to control the game and rn it N the
rocks, the sam as in other towns. Phnadephians have been able to keen
boxing free from scandal for the last 100 years, and they car continue to do so.
Local promoters, for their " protection, should get together and do
something. If necessary, bar SON of the outside talent and allow som Of the
home town boys to perform. The city is large enough to develop its own
talent. and although it might not have the class shown by champions, we

Paso Laundry H,
a New Idea

A shoe repairing department hai
been Installed in charge Of Trinidad
Concho. who is well known to hun.
dreds Of FL Pasoans as he has beer
connected with the leading boot and
shoe makers and repairers of thi:
city for the past 26 years. He j.
far famed as most proficient in his
line of work.
This new department has been in
operation only a short time, but the
idea has been so successful so far that
hundreds OF people have already taken
advantage of the accommodation Peo-
pie all over the Southwest have learned
Of the new feature whereby they may
send worn shoes by Parcel Post for
repairing. In the city the laundry
wagons pick up shoes in the same way
they collect laundry and return the
bundles after the repairing is com
plsted- This makes it very convenient
for FL Pasoans, as well as the Parcel
Post delivery makes it convenient for
those out of the city.
The FL Paso Laundry is one Of the
Oldest institutions Of the city. Since
1891, when it was first established, it
has been supervised by the able man
ayers, Crawford HarTie, president, and
James Harvie, plant superintendent
and vice president.
The cleaning and pressing depart
msnt does a wonderful business. The
work is supervised BY Fred Sumner,
an expert on textile chemistry. The
greatest care is taken in the work
and the most delicate fabrics may be
entrusted to this department for clean
ing. The dyeing and repairing as well
as cleaning and blocking Of hats is all
done by able worsmen.
The main plant is located 901-919
on South Santa Fe and covers $4,000
square feet of floor space. Through
out it has modern equipment. Every
effort is made to maintain efficiency.
Nearly $50 employees constitute
payroll Of $4,000 annually. Nine
wagons and five motor trucks are used
in the delivery department.
In every department, whether the
laundry, the cleaning, pressing, dyeing,
repairing, hat blocking. or shoe repair
ing EFFICIENCY is the watchword.
