w. N. A. TIES NEWARK H. s.

The West Nottingham Academy
football team played TT tie with
Newark High School on the latter's
gridiron Saturday morning, Oct. 16.
The game was bitterly fought from
the start to finish. The Maroon had
an off day, and Newark was red hot,
so that the two teams appeared to be
evenly matched. Nottingham took
the lead easily in the first quarter
when a sustained drive of 55 yards
featured by Giammona's line smash
es. and Salvaterra's end runs, and
climaxed by 20 yard forward pass
from Salvaterra to- Wuzzardo placed
the ball in Newark's end zone. Sal
vaterra converted, and it looked like
another Nottingham track meet.
The Blue and Gold, however, rallied
quickly and stopped the Maroon
razzle-dazzle dead for the rest Of the
game. In the second half lack of
capable requirements for injuries at
critical points slowed the Noting
ham attack, and weakened the de-
fence, so that the Delaware boys
with better reserve material were
able to tie up the score.

The members of the Board and

1t is understood that rights of
ways will have to be acquired before
pavements can be extended to the
school property. No decision was
reached by the inspection group.
The Board awarded the heating
contract for the new Port Deposit
Colored School to l.. E. Williams, of
Port Deposit.
Permission to run power line

Postmaster General To
Speak In Baltimore

Mr.. Farley's acceptance of an in
vitation to address the annual ban
quet of the Young Democratic Clubs
of Maryland to be held at the Lord
Baltimore Hotel in Baltimore, on
Wednesday, November 18th, has
created an unusal amount of political
interest throughout the State. Quot
ing from the Evening Sun "All sides
wonder whether Postmaster General
James A. Farley would taks advant-
age of speaking engagement here
in November to indicate the attitude
of the National Administrative in
the Maryland Primary"
Mr.. Farley is coming into Mary
land as the Morning Sun describes it,
while the States political pot is
boiling furiously because of the now
inevitable fight for the Democratic
Gubernatorial and Senatorial nom
nations next year. Whether the
coming of Mr.. Farley presages an
entrance of the New Deal into the
apparent Democratic Primary is not
known publicly. However, it is en-
tirely possible that there may be
a tie-up between the honor to be
accorded Mr.. Farley and the 1898
Primary.
Sources close to the Young DEM
ocratic Clubs refuse to admit any i'm
mediate connection between Mr.. Far
ley and the election. The dinner,
it is said, however, will give the
National Chairman an opportunity
to express himself on the Maryland
Gubernatorial and Senatorial situa-
tions-if Mr.. Farley wants to ex-
press himself.
