Pleasantville Veteran Foot Ball
Squad Defeats Rival School
By Decisive Score.
4th CONSECUTIVE VICTORY.

Cape May High School Football
Team came to this city on Saturday
expecting to carry away a victory and
were sadly disappointed, when "Ebby"
Parsels' lightweight team copied the
game with a decisive score of 25-6.
This is the fourth consecutive victory
for the Pleasantville boys this season,
and makes both the players and their
consistent rooters very jubilant. This
has been a fine season for the Maroon
and White, and they are looked upon
as being in the Championship class.
The local eleven has been in seven
games this year and has won five of
them.
Forward passing game was one of
the outstanding features of the con-
test. A long forward in the first quar-
ter, Painter to Roser, was responsible
for the first score. Roser was brought
to the ground before he could take the
ball over, but Painter took 1t across
from the fve-yard line after rushes on
the part of his teammates.

The bad feature of Mr.. ZangwilPs

where they will approve quite gener-
ally his views on America.

But his inaccurate belittling Of the
Ku Klux Khan may eause trouble TO
better Jews than Zangwill. And his
~ridiculing of Christian Science does
not come with good grace from one
belonging to a race that has so long

prejudice.

What should we say about a collec,
