lieves a team will bc produced that will
not suffer in comparison with any

played next Friday when the Wood
bury boys show their wares probably
against the athletes Of Salem High.
There Is some doubt about the Salem
engagement and there j. chance that
pleasantvlle will be substituted.
DE Hart Star Lineup
There are three outstanding figures
in the Woodbury. lineup. The first is
CAPTAIN De Hart. who stops them at
right tackle. De Hart Is heavier than
last season, and with his experience
and natural ability he should prove to
be one of the best forwards in Jersey.
The other two athletes who are
figured 70 star are Van Horn and John
son. Van Horn has been switched
from thp line to the baCktield and Will
start the season next Friday at rull-
hack. In the scrimmageS held so far,
ne has shown himself Ia be good line
Nurkrr and also fleet enough to get by
,rrm a, ,hr wings. He probably will
.o ,Lc hunting and forward passing;
T,br,nu is the quarterback, cool
| lender and good field general.
Tlern is squad of forty players
ou' for the team and the schoolooyS
are showing excellent spirit. Ihere are
many who haven't chance to make
the first team, but they turn out for
| practice regardless and help give the
regulars some opposition IN the scr'm-
IMAGES.

1rtic tcams. He Is a Penn man. He
