The Fisk Tire Company's Social and Athletic Association events and happenings for the week of September 17, 1920.

Description

A four page newspaper describing the events related to the social groups and athletic clubs of the Fisk Tire Company for the week of September 17, 1920. On page one this week is a mix of stories that look at wrapping up a busy sports season for the Fisk Plant. The Non Skids, who placed third in the league, are to play first-place Winchester, with the results not making any changes to the standings. The factory league championship game between the Machine Shop and the Cord Tire division was postponed due to weather with no clear winner and both teams confident of victory. No-accident week will start soon and Buck Drennan, of the Machine Shop, will be leaving Fisk to attend Springfield College. Drennan was the coach of the Red Tops basketball team the previous year. On page two it is reported that the Springfield Republican has chosen two players from the Non Skids team, Marty Conroy and Frank Maguire, to be on the (mythical) Springfield All-Star team. Joe Lombard is the first person to make it to the tennis finals. The final Park Night was held up by rain. All outdoor activities were cancelled, but the dance that night was still held and determined to be a success. And, based on performance, there will five more nim-rods added to the shooting team. On page three the batting average of Mike Ryan, hitting .533, leads and Frank "Mac" Maguire pitching a no-hitter for the Non Skids follows. A photograph and story about the "Shirt-Tail Club" is in the center of the page. Three separate Fisker weddings lead page four with a story on the Friday night dance and one on the Red Tops chances at a league title.
