Lower Merion Boosts Winning Streak to Thirteen Straight.
ttTime Out"
By Tommy Mltcklin.
About the prettiest piece of individual
work in the Norristown game Friday
night was contributed by one of Coach
Anderson's minute men, Hughie \Vynn
by name. His last-minute field goal
was a classic and if he can do that sort
of thing regularly, his lack of heig-ht will
not hinder him very much.
* * *
Friends' Central still shares the lead
with Germantown Academy in the Inter-
academic League. Both teams have won
three games without a reverse.
* * *
Lower Merion leads the Suburban
League A section with 5 wins and 0
losses, followed by Norristown with 4
and I, and Upper Darl)\' with 2 and 2.

B. M. Hospital Faces
$100,000 Deficit in 1930
Cost of Operation Increased
$350 a Day By New Demands
On Institution
Bryn ~[awr Hospital docs not enjoy
the enviable financial position that
many residents of the community are
led to believe it does. It is coml1lon
gossip that Bryn 1\1 awl' Hospital
should not have to ask for donations
01' have drives for thc purposc of rais-
ing funds. This is not true, however,
for it is estimated that at the end of
1930 the hospital will havc to meet a
deficit for the year of between $80,000
and $100,000.
The budgl·t for 1930 amounts to
more than $500,000, or approximately
$1450 per day, During the past year
the daily cost amounted to $1100,
which included only six months in the
ncw building,
The item of food al1lounted to ap-
proximately $10,000 during Decemher,
and this is only one of more than 4000
items listed in the inventory of the
hospital, although it is about thc most
important.
The following figures will bc of
great interest to everyone, but espe-
cially to housewives, who think their
food bills arc so large and that their
families ha\'e such heart v appetites,
They show the amount o'f food used
during the month ·of Deccmber:
One thousand eight hundred and
twenty-six loaves of bread, 8040 rolls,
5400 cluarts of milk, 217 quarts of
cream. 257 quarts of iCl~ cream, 493
pounds of fi"h, 972 oysters and clams,
15,3W eggs, 14(ll) pounds of butler,
5372 )H1UIHIs of meat. 1853 !llllllHls of
poultry, f)100 pounds of potatoes, (,(180
oranges.
Four thousand articll's arc w;ed in
the running of a hospital. ranging from
the finest surgical instruments to
power house equipment.
Legitimate complaint" and criticisms
arc always welcomed by the ho"pital
authorities, for it is onh' bv means of
them that errors can he'reciifiecl.

entertainment really is, when it is reproduced in all the richness, brilliance and vitality
of perfectly reproduced musical tone. Only Victor Radio can give you such a
performance.
To prove Vietor Radio and our statements about it, we will place in your home,
for Victor's February 13th broadcast, any of the four Victor Radio models you
select. (Unless our stock of a particular model is exhausted before you call to ask
for your choice.) There will be no charge and no obligation.
