.This game was the crucial one ofthe Suburban League season, as
avictory for Lower Mer io n wou ldhave tied it with Nor ri s town
forthe league leadership. Feeling inboth camps natur al ly r an
high, butmany L. M. rooters felt that thehardboiled "razzing" which
Norristown fans indulged in was a bit uncalled for.Coach Rhoton, of
the Norr is townquintet , f el t the same way, onlymore
conclusively so, fo r t he nextd ay h e i ss ued a statement in
whichhe told the st udent body t ha t hewas ashamed and humiliated
at ther az zi ng s pi ri t which had beens hown a t the Lower
Merion contest. It was accompanied with aplea for better
sportsmanship.An organized e ffor t t o pu t overthis better spirit
has now beens ta rt ed by school authorities atNorr istown, and one
of t he chiefs teps in thi s campaign has been thedistribution o f
cards among Nor ri s town rooters pleading for betterspirit.The
scheme has been used with
good effect at the Univers ity ofPennsylvania basketball games,
andthe high school officials hope thatit will produce results
here.

We borrow from one of our big department store ads a thought
that seems to us to be qui te worth repeating. It relates to one o
f t hekeepers at the Zoo-a faithful fel low, doing his work well,
keeping th e cages clean, feeding the an imals well and punctually,
and yet dislikedby a ll o f t hem because he never had a kind word
or a caress. We might s el l you good goods at low p ri ces and
render a ll kinds of service, yetif we do all this and even more in
a perfunctory cold, unharmonious manner, you would not buy f rom us
with a real relish, would you?

sugar.
