Soccer Matches
Stir Fans

Soccer fans today are wondering
what is in store for the game in
1887, following history making
games played yesterday.
The first games of 1887 certainly
indicated that soccer may be in
for a big season of uncertainties,
for in yesterdays tits:
Cd Sun Radio lost for the first
time in several seasons to HeH-
rich's, 2 to 1;
(2) Marlboro won over Silver
Spring by the lopSided count of
18 to l;
90 German Sport Club swamped
an 8man team representing
Georges Radio, 8 to 0, and,
(D Democrats won the first fog
feited game of the season when
the Italian-American outfit failed
to appear.
Wet Grounds
A wet and treacherouS field, fur
ther marred here and there by
pools of water, failed to take the
enthusiasm out of the HeUrich'S.
Sun Radio game. The Brewers
were forced to press, but Wilson
and Hook soon had Sun Radio at
the other end, a number Of wild
shots going at Watson.
After seven minutes of slippery
play, Wilson, after a miSkick by
a Brewer, got hold of one and
opened the scoring. After this
Heurich's forwards got busy with
some clever passing in open field
and, finally, Gum and Blanche
combined to break through the
Sun Radio defense. Gum passed
to Sienuta and he came through
with an oblique drive.
Margin of Victory
After the opening kick of the
second half, Sun Radio carried the
warfare into Heurich territory
Burton clearing, the ball going to
E. Knight. The latter's pass to
Shelton let the outside left away
for a long solo run, at the conclu'
sion of which he centered perfectly
to Sienuta, who had no difficulty
registering what proved to be the
margin of victory.

In Detroit, St. Louis, Philadelphia,

cities where good beers are made,
you'll find that the real dry "beer-y"
beer is the leading seller. Just as
Gunther's is the big favorite in this
part of the country!
You'll never tire ofKthe taste Of
Gunther's. That dry tang, that berry
flavor makes you want more EIt

But the real beer drinkers, in the

Bury your nose deep in a stein Of

to drink any other kind Of beer. The
mellow tang, the dry berry flavor
that comes from the finest imported
hops will give you new idea OF how
real beer should taste! Actually there
is no finer beer made regardless of
price. If we charged premium of
20 cents bottle we couldn't give you
grander-tasting beer. Yet Gunther's
costs no more than ordinary beers
and a lot less than many beers shipped
here from the west at high freight and
handling charges! So order a case now,
and have it for supper. Gunther's, the
beer for real beer drinkers!
