Dave Kerr stars

Dave Kerr was opposed to Frank
Bruggy and dropped in three field goals
The first pair of baskets were made
while Bruggy was covering some other
player and does not reflect on his ability
in the least. 1t rather is n feather in
the cap of Kerr, who is undoubtedly
the most persistent man following up
shots in the game and he is rcaping
results as has been evident by the goals
he has scored by this mode of playing.
OF course, another way of looking
at the Camden defeat is the poor ex-
hibition they gave OF foul tossing They
outscorcd the Germs from the field. Z
to 6. but the best they could do with
the one pointers was seven out of TWEEN
ty-fve chances. while Germantown
made good on eleven out of twenty two
attempts. The game was thrilling and
will long be remembered by the big
crowd.
Frank Bruggy was the rccipicnt Of
CONGRATULATIONS on all sides. The an
nounccment of his signing with the
! Phils was the signal for an ovation
when he entered the cage. Bruggy said
it was all news to him and his first
inkling of his being traded to Bill
Donovan was what he had read in the
papers. He expressed his pleasure AT
| the deal and said he would be glad to
come here.

It is now recognized that cathartics never re-

physician states that the indiscriminate use of
cathartics is probably one of the most frequent
causes of constipation.
For many years there has been pressing need
for some simple food that would help restore
normal conditions. And now scientists have dis
