They were alluding to the all-time Syracuse Yellow Jackets winning streak of 1926 when the Jackets had a 20-game schedule and won every game. They went to Indianapolis to play among the “Sweet Sixteen” in the old Coliseum Cow Bam. Connolly was a member of that team, coached by Court Slabaugh. This year the record of the Jackets has been just the reverse. The previous year, 1925, the Milford Trojans had a new gym (the best in the county at that time), were hosts to the county tourney, and swent to Indianapolis as one of the “Sweet Sixteen.” « « • Fred and Emily Elstrod’s Country Corner lays claim to having the oldest bottle of spirits in this area. Fred is showing friends a bottle of Brown Sherry (Gold Seal) dated 1816, manufactured by Thomas H. Jacobs & Co.. 233 Dock St., Philadelphia, and another, called Novia Sherry, dated 1876.

School photographer Tim Yeager got an assist from Tommy Hall, who was sporting a big lump on i his forehead, at the tourney Saturday night. From the looks of things, it appears someone commented about the Jackets, and Tommy didn’t like it. The new M-J column “Ask The Clergy’’ brought fire from a Syracuse pulpit shortly after it hit the street.
