The 10 foot ring, 13 “migs.” The rules are about the same. { Here's how the tournament will be conducted. ! If you will not be 15 on or before July 1, vou are { invited to enter. You will later be advised where and vhen the games in which you are to take part will fe played. The player that wins the championship title is going to have the time of his young life. He will be New Britain's hero. To him will go the honor of representing this city in the national marble shooting contest at Atlantic City during the week of June 26. That trip to Atlantic City is something worth fighting for. Known as “America’s Playground,” the seaboard town holds unnumbered attractions.
