Was Used to Win Football Game Last
Week From Clayton.

Pleasantville High school meets
its second foe of the 1926 season
when Cape May High school comes
to the Floral avenue ball park for
its annual game with the Maroon
at 2.30 tomorrow afternoon. The
visitors are said to have an eleven
which Is as strong, if not stronger,
than those which have played ag-
ainst the local eleven in the past
few years. During that time the
two schools have been keen rivals.
Coach Paul Shaffer has drilled
the Maroon in all attempt to over
come weak points discovered in
last weeks contest, when high
school defeated Clayton as it open
ed its season.
AZ it seems now, the backfield
will be left as it was in the game
last week with Captain Westcott.

FISHING is GOOD NOW.
Pickerel Can be Caught in erack

A little information about catch
ing pickerel in tidal streams is nee
essary to the fishing fraternity. "A

phia attorney protested against the
writer telling of catching fresh wa
ter fish in creeks and rivers flow

Toms river. They are caught in
the brackish water Of both Wading
river and Mullica creek. During
the early winter, they are caught in
great quantities just below the Bat
SO overflow. Nearly always they
bite better on minnows, but they
have been taken on plugs and night
crawlers.
The movement Of the pickerel in
the tidal streams in autumn is up
stream and this seems to be proved
By the catches that are made below
the tidal dams. With the pickcrel.
yellow perch may be taken under
almost identical circumstances.
The fish are almost always hungry
as if they were feeding up for the
cold winter months. During an
early freeze the fishing seems to
be much better.

High school opened its football
season in an suspicious fashion as
il walked over Clayton for a 21--0
victory at the Floral avenue ball
park Saturday afternoon. The Ma.
room unleashed a vicious attack
during the closing moments Of the
third, and lasting until the fourth,
periods that Clayton simply could
not stop.
With little bit of strength add
ed along the line, foes of the Ma
room will find it difficult to defeat
the high school eleven this season.

best we have watched playing for
