Many Injuries in Practice
IL Ia surprising the number Of serious
accidents that happen in the practice
drills, Many stars have been lost this
season due to rough tackling and hard
falls in scrimmages. Germantown High
School suffered loss yesterday when
Mills, the star halfback, was thrown
nv Kaufman and sustained a broken
bone in his ankle. He was taken to
the Germantown Hospital.
Chestnut Hill defeated Germantown
High. and the Germantown boys were
working hard to get into shape for the
South Philadelphia game at German
town tomorrow, Inls Contest opening tne
Gimbel Cup series. Mills's loss will be
a blow to the team. The boy who
tackled him barely escaped a lay of
from football in the Hillersi game, as
he received a hard bump on the head
This didn't prove serious and Kaufman
engaged in the workout yesterday.
At first Coach Davis hoped Mills had
simply pulled his ankle out of place,
but upon examination he stated II was
case of broken bone, which means
many weeks on the sidelines for the
unfortunate halfback.
