Watson allowed only one hit, J which could have been fielded. Hummelstown played an errorless! game and was back of the battery at all times with classy ball. Forrest, | who plays right field for Hershey j and ten and one-fifth second man | at Lafayette, onls' reached first base | the first time at bat by a count of j four balls. To show his wonderful * speed as a runner on the next ball j to the batter he took a chance on | stealing second, but was retired by the famous O'Donnell, with a great throw to Keller.

European Plan Garage in Connection THURSDAY EVENING, but out of three tripe to the plate had two hits. Minnlck, who has just returned from the Army, played the hot corner and stopped several hard ones. Keller stopred two fast grounders and retired the runners in great style. McCurdy had one hit out of three trips to the plate and made a nice catch, which was short and high. Watson had two hits out of three thues up, the one going out in deep left field way over the road and bounded on the hill, which was good for a three base or possible home run, but owing to the ground rules since Hershey has planted | his trees around the field was only allowed two bases. He also started the double play which worked out fine, Watson to Hagy to O'Dooinell. Bordner was a great throwing star. Stomlt Is Relieved Stoudt, who started tor Hershey, gave away to Tost in the third in ning, who,held the Hummelstown boys down the remaining part of the game. Foster was the only man for Hershey who had a hit and saved the team from a clean shutout. Only twenty-one batters faced the famous Watson and he was never in danger. The score: HUMMELSTOWN FIBE CO.

( Galahad pushed nearer to the top In the Allison Hill League cirWilt | last night by nosing out Rosewood, j 5 to 4, In the most exciting contest i of the year. It was a hatr-ralslng finish that had the fans yelling themselcves hoarse, for In the final Inning the bases were loaded, with ono out and one run needed to tie the score. But "Buck" Gilday was equal to the emergency, fanning Winters and making Thompson pop up an easy fly. Two Dauphin--Perry pitchers were opposed to each other. "Whitey" Winters, of the Duncannon nine, opposed "Buck" Gilday, of the New port team. It was a tossup as to which pitched the better ball, but fortune favored Gilday, with the extra run coming his way. Win ters struck out eight and walked none, while Gilday was rather wild, passing, six and whiffing two. Big Innings Both teams had big innings in the second. Rosewood seemed to have secured a commanding lead when it got three runs, but Galahad back stronger and scored four. With two out. "Bill" Hoerner wait ed out Gilday and, with three and two, was given a pass to the first station. "Snaps" Emanuel tripled and Hoerner scored. Emanuel came in when Cocklin singled to right field. Winters walked. Thompson's single to center field brought In Cocklin and made the count three. Galahad 'stirred the compliment when they came to bat. Fetrow reached first on Hoerner's error ami came home on Giblin's double. Clark also doubled, sending in Gib lin. Lutz rerched first on an error, Clark going to third base. When "Red" Foland tingled to left field, both Lutz and Clark came home. This made the score 4 to 3, in favor of Galahad. Lutz made another run for Gala had in the fourth when ho dou bled to left field and stole secdnd while Foland and Gilday were fan ning. Cobaugh drove out a timely single and Lutz scored. Rosewood's final count came in the sixth as a result of Dunkle's two-bagger that scored Thompson from second base. Fail to Score The seventh brought the climax to the evening's entertainment when Rosewood loaded the bases with one out, but could not send a runner over the plate. Bender singled over third, but was out on a fielder's choice that sent Geary to first. Emanuel worked a base on halls, Cobaugh dropped a fly in left field and the bases were full, with one out and a run needed to tie the score. Gilday then was at his best and fanned Winters, while Thomp son ended the contest with a pop fly to "Buck." During the game a Middletown aviator kept the crowd craning thir necks watching a number of aerial stunts that he pulled. Without a doubt, it was the most exciting game of the season and was thoroughly enjoyed by the large crowd pres ent. The score; GALAHAD AB. R. H. O. A. E. i Cobaugh.

HARRIBBUP.G TELEGRAPH Klein Team Hands Jolt to Mack's Tailenders in Exhibition Battle Hungry baseball fans, numbering , nearly 5,000, cheered, shouted, ! , threw hats ihto the air, and acted 1 like wild people yesterday afternoon ! when "Johnny" Brackenridge's | Klein Chocolate Company teum, I humbled Connie Mack's tailenders, : score 4 to 2. It was some game | and don't let any person be fooled I in the idea that the Athletics did not ! try to play baseball. They played the best they knew how. I Those fans filled the bleachers I and grandstand, crowded along right and left field, and presented 1 an old-time scene, much resembling | the days when Tri-State baseball , was popular. It was a nip and tuck battle, with Rogers doing the mound ! work for the Quakers and Walter Harned speeding them over the plate for the Klein crew. Only four hits were made by the Mack men, while the Klein team piled up .eight, five of which were scored in one i inning. Some miscues prevented j the cellar champions of the Amer ican League from taking a shutout. Stars in (innic | Connie Mack's lineup included some stars, and there were other players whose work was probably an • explanation for the Athletics being j at the bottom. Strunk, Turns. Kopp, ' Thomas Walker and Livingston were in evidence. For the Klein team Wrightstone, Brannen and Trout pulled off some good work. Every body played bail on Brackey's team. Craig, an Army officer, was a big I star. Harned had a puzzling, dopey, drop ball that had Mack's men chop ping at times, and fave the umpire I numerous chances to call strikes. |He kept his hits well scattered. ! Rogers speeded them across the | plate every inning, but the eighth I was his fatal period. The Klein I swatters landed on his curves in I great style. It was a fast scrappy ! battle. Ginger was plentiful. It I was an old-time' baseball game, with | many old-time fans rooting for the l Klein team. Manager Brackenridge was much I pleased with the crowd and promises ! more good games in the future, in | eluding the Pittsburgh Nationals, j the champion colored teams and other attractions, j Included in the big throng yes | terday were fifty soldiers from the Carlisle Hospital who were brought i here by the Knights of Columbus and were in charge of E. L. Mc ] Donald. During the game these I soldiers were given chocolate, and after the game were dised and then | taken home.

TRAVELERS GET ANOTHER GAME Wrangling and Umpire Bait ing Mars Contest in West End League Tuzzling curves, wrangling, um pire baiting and a few other things not in baseball, figured in last night's twilight game in the West End League. Commonwealth yanked a I victory froip the Englnemen and ! Firemen, score 2 to 1. It was a pitchers' battle between "Dutch" Connors and Herb Washinger. It was a good game outside of the rough side of the rooting. It looked like ' { a near riot on several occasions. The climax came in the last half of the seventh inning when the rail roaders were at bat for the last time. • Two men had been retired when Wagner, the left fielder for the En gineers and Firemen, tripled to deep left for the second time during the game. Gordon Ford was the next man tip and the first ball pitched to | him by Washinger went straight across the plate. I'mpire Cook, who was officiating behind the plate, called it a strike. This made Ford angry and he began to wrangle with the official. While Ford was out of the batter's box arguing with the umpire about his decision. Pitcher Washinger threw two more strikes across the plate and Ford was called out. thus retiring the side. Tills brought more trouble. Tall Eniiers Scarp The tail enders in th- West End Twilight League wet the first to score. In the opening inning after Waltz had grounded out, short to first, and Madden went out on a fly to third, Rote was given a base on balls. He stole second and scored on Wagner's triple to left. Ford ended the inning by flying out to right field. The Travelers evened things up in their half of the second inning. Klugh was given a base on balls and went to second when Gerdes got safe on an infield hit to third. Rote re covered the ball but, when he threw it to first to catch Gerdes the ball went into the right field bleachers and both runners were advanced a base. G. Killingcr fanned, but on a single by W. Smith, Klugh crossed home plate. The inning ended when E. Killinger flied out to short and Washinger flied out to Ford. Commonwealth added its second run in the sixth after Klugh had •grounded out, pitcher to first. Gerdes was hit by a pitched ball and stole second and third in close succession. An attempt was made to catch the runner at third, but Rote left Atticks' throw get away from him and Ger des scored. With but one out, the Travelers were unable to get another run this inning, although the bases were later filled. G. Killinger was given a base on balls, and went to third on W. Smith's double to right. E. Killinger walked, but these run ners died on base when Washinger struck out and Lightner flied out to Brehm. ENGINEERS AND FIREMEN AB. R. H. O. A. E. 'O.
