NOTTINGHAM GRIDDERS TOPPLE
STATE CHAMPS

Playing before large crowd un-
der the lights at Dover, Delaware,
Friday evening, Nov. II, the West
Nottingham Academy football team
humbled the Dover High School team
by the impressive score of 40-7.
Highly touted as Delware school
boy champions, and with an impress
sive record of Is games without a
defeat in almost two seasons, the
Dover team was clearly outclassed by
the flashy Maroons in every depart
ment of the game. The brilliant
passing of Shubrooks, and the 100
odd yards in penalties assessed
against Nottingham probably kept
the score down, but neither had any
important effect 'on the final result.
Well matched as the two teams were
in weight, size, and experience, the
greater variety and smoothness of
the Maryland teams attack was evil
dent from the start. Dover received
the opening kickoff, and lost the
ball to West Nottingham on fun
BILE on the 50-yard line. The Maroon
attack exploded Immediately, le-
quiring only three plays to reach
pay dirt and TO lead within a
minute and a half of the first quar-
ter.
Dover's only score came at the
end of the first quarter climaxing
an SO yard advance with Shubrooks
going over from the five yard line.
The Delaware team never threa tened
thereafter.
The Maroon attack was paced by
the running and passing of Pat
Johnston of Haddonfield, N. j., the
running and kicking of Jim Spillane
of Collingswood, N. j., and the pass
snatching of Luther Conrad, right
end from Hollidaysburg, Penna. AL
Newcomb of Landesdown, Penna.,
and Joe Aquilani of Norristown,
Penna., Maroon halfbacks gained
consistently on reverses, and were
stand out blockers and pass-defend-
ers. Outstanding defensive hOnors go
to Walter Paul of Audubon, N. j.,
and Joe Kaldor of Bellaire, Ohio,
who manned the TANKS for the Ma
room on defense. Reginald Vincent of
Red Bank, N. j., who captained the
Maroon and played right tackle, and
John Sitter of pillars of strength all
evening.

Thousands of automobile drivers
have eyes that fatigue from long
driving, and when fatigued they
tend to turn in or out, instead of
pointing straight as they normally do
when not tired. The images on such
over-worked eyes are indistinct and
blurred, and the ability to judge
distances is impaired. If an autono-
bile driver with eyes in this tired
condition takes a single drink Of
liquor, he may suffer great impair
ment of vision, frequently to the
extent of seeing blurred, double i'm
ages. While he may be perfectly So
Der in every other respect, and would
pass the ordinary tests for intoxica-
ton given by physicians, still, from
a visual standpoint, he would be
cock-eyed, says the Better Vision
institute. In that condition he be-
comes unknowingly a menace ON the
road.

CHRISTMAS SEALS
VIII Help Eradicate scourge OF
Tuberculosis

Nothing less than the complete
eradication of the scourge OF tuber-
culosis from this country should pc
the aim of every citizen In giving
support to the annual Christmas
Seal sale, President Roosevelt said
in endorsing the thirty-second an
nual campaign which begins on
Thanksgiving Day. Such support
says the president, becomes pa
triotic duty.
President Roosevelt said that the
work of the tuberculosis associations
in teaching people that the disease
is preventable and durable and that
people can be returned to health and
strength is of the highest value.
with the approach of the holiday
season we are again forcibly remind
ed that the nationwide attack on
tuberculosis is a year round cam
paign, made possible through the
proceeds of Christmas Seals, "Presl-
dent Roosevelt said. Since 1907 these
well known Seals, which will go ON
sale throughout Maryland and the
United States on Thanksgiving Day,
have played an important part IN
stamping out tuberculosis and saw
ing lives of countless numbers oil
people stricken with this dread dis
ease.
1.-THE work which the National Tu-
berculosis Association and It's ami
lated organizations are doing IN
teaching people that tuberculosis Is
preyentable, that it is durable, and
that great numbers OF tuberculosis
patients can be restored to health
and strength, is of highest value
It deserves the support OF citizens
everywhere. Such support In very
real sense becomes patriotic duty
1.-THE proceeds from the sale OF
the Christmas Seals will furnish the
sinews of war with which to attack
this mensce on all fronts through
preventive measurers, education, free
clinics, disqualification and nursing
service. Our goal must be nothing
less than the complete eradication
of this scourge of tuberculosis from
our nation. Through the power OF
the Christmas Seal everybody can
help in attaining that goal. In the
true spirit of Christmas let us as
nation give generous support to this
campaign to protect the health OF
every man, woman, and child with
in our borders"
Sunday, November 9th, has been
proclaimed christmas Seal Sunday
by Governor Harry w. Nice. In his
proclamation Governor Nice request
ed that the citizens of Maryland re-
spond literally to the Christmas Seal
sale. He also urged the clergy of the
state to bring to the attention OF
their respective congregation the
work that is being done by the
Maryland tuberculosis Association
and the need of continuing efforts
to eradicate 1.-The great white
plague.
The Christmas Seals will be mail
ed to the public on Thanksgiving.
They will be mailed to people in all
counties of the state. Persons who do
not receive Christmas Seals in the
mail, and who wish to assist In the
fight against tuberculosis, will be
able to purchase them from the local
Christmas Seal sale chairmen.
