of the yea ryeeterday afternoon at
Franklin Field, when the varsity and
scrubs fought through a regular nine-
Inning game to a tie. 2 to 2. It Is
only the second day the Infield and
outfield men have been out, so the
pitchers had an advantage over the
batters and the score was therefore
low. Fielding was also rather ragged,
six errors being committed In the nine
Innings.
The scruhs scored both of their tal
lies off Sayre in the sixth inning.
Sweeney started with a clean single to
right and McDonald and Harris fol
lowed by working the lanky twlrler
for walks. O'Donnell followed with a
safe one to right and two runs came
In. The varsity scored once in the
fourth. Eichelberser singled to right
and went on to third when Corkran
fumbled a throw to catch him nap
ping. He came in on a passed ball.
In the eighth the varsity tied the
score. Dise walked. Mann put him
on second with a sacrifice and he
scored when Schimpf foozled Eichel
berger's grounder.

Intercollegiate Association Will
Make Radical Rule
Changes
Amateur athletes in Harrisburg are
a unit for the proposed amendment to
track and field rules adding a fifth
place for honors. Frequently at lo
cal mepts there have been class hon
ors in the fourth prize awards.
With the purpose of Increasing the
desire for participation in competi
tion and encouraging keener interest
and enthusiasm for athletics among
collegiate students, several other im
portant amendments to the constitu
tion and by-laws of the Intercollegiate
Association of Amateur Athletes of
America will be adopted at the annual
meeting here Saturday, February 28.
These amendments have been
framed by the advisory committee, of
which Gustavus T. Kirby, Columbia,
is chairman, in accordance with sug
gestions made by the executive com
mittee. composed of Walter Tufts, Jr.,
Harvard; Donald P. Beardsley, Cor
nell; Alexander McAndrew, Yale, and
Thomas M. McMillan, Princeton.
The most important change is the
one suggested to add a fifth place in
each event in awarding the champion
ship cup for the annual track and
field meeting, scoring five for first,
four for second, three for third, two
for fourth and one for fifth places, a
total of 15 points for each event, in
stead of 11 points—s, 3, 2 and 1, the
method in vogue since 1898.
Xext in importance will be the in
auguration of an annual indoor ath
letic meeting on the evening of the
first Saturday In March, in which the
eligibility rules will be the same as
in the annual championship meet
ings. Following are the events pro
posed:
Two relay races for teams of five
men, in one of which each man is to
run 150 yards and in the other 300
yards. Relays for teams of four men
at 500, 1,000 and 2,000 yards each,
and in addition a relay for teams of
four men, the men in the first relay to
run 200 yards; the men in the second
to run 300 yards; the men In the
third to run 500 yards, and the final
relay men to run 1,000 yards. The
field events, running.high jump, pole
vault and 16-pound shot will be for
teams of five men, points to be scored
as in the cross-country run.
End such misery now! Get the
small bottle of "Ely's Cream Balm" at
any drug store. This sweet, fragrant
balm dissolves by the heat of the nos
trils; penetrates and heals the In
flamed, swollen membrane which
lines the nose, head and throat; clears
the air passages; stops nasty dis
charges and a feeling of cleansing,
soothing relief comes Immediately.
Don't lay awake to-night strug
gling for breath, with head stuffed;
nostrils closed, hawking and blowing".
Catarrh or a cold, with lta running
nose, foul mucous dropping into the
throat, and raw dryness is distressing
but truly needless.
Put your faith—just once—ln "Ely's
Cream Balm" and your cold or catarrh
will surely disappear.—Advertisement.
PROPOSED NEW BASKETBALL START IS POPULAR
f
How to Make Basketball
a More Interesting Sport
Basketball, one of winter's great
sports, may undergo a considerable
change before next season starts and
Harrisburg teams are already trying
out some of the new plays suggested.
One change which, in the opinion of
Professor Elmer Gress, supervisor of
the Dayton, Ohio, playgrounds, will
make the game more interesting, is in
effect in Dayton, and the Amateur
Athletic Union has commented favor
ably upon it.
Professor Gress is Southern Ohio's
leading basketball authority. lie has
never been satisfied with the method
of putting the ball into play by having
the two centers Jump for it when the
referee tosses it up between them.
Gress' objection is that a very tall
player at center gives his team too
much advantage over an opponent.
He wants teams of five who can work
together in every detail, which, he
says, is at present impossible.
BITS OF SPORTS
The John K. Royal tossers will play
the Big Five at Middletown to-night.
It was a late booking and a great
game is looked for.
The Hamilton Grammar School five,
claimants to the city championship, is
anxious to meet Lemoyne and Mid
dletown grammar school teams.
The Alphas defeated the Cardinals
in the Casino League last night; mar
gin, 143 pins. The Orpheums and
Colonials will play a double-header on
Thursday.
Lincoln Grammar School defeated
Willard on Tech floor last night; score,
52 to 12.
New Cumberland bowlers defeated
the Superiors on New Cumberland
alleys last night; margin, 68 pins.
The Freight Trainmasters had an
easy time winning from the Passenger
Trainmasters in last night's game in
the Pennsylvania Railroad Station
League; margin, 201 pins.
KING COLE IS BACK
New York, Feb. 4. Leonard L.
("King") Cole, who recently jumped
organized baseball and signed a three
year contract with the Chicago Fed
eral League club, has jumped back to
the New York Americans. Cole signed
a one-year contract with the Yankees
here to-day for $3,300, the figures
named by Cole to President Farrell on
December 23, which Farrell duly ac
cepted.

THE HUB
320 MARKET STREET
Instead of putting the ball into play
as the rules now call for, Dayton's
playground teams toss for the ball at
the start of the game and the winner
gets possession. One player steps out
of bounds with the ball about midway
between the goals and endeavors to
pass the ball to one of his own men,
all of whom are guarded by oppo
nents.
After the first scoring the ball goes
to the opposing side, which -puts it
into play in the same manner, but
from the opposite side of the court.
The right to put the ball in play then
alternates. This prevents the team
with the tallest or highest jumping
center gaining an advantage.
The game, it is claimed, is faster
under Gress' plan and more scientific,
as the new way makes possible more
passing combinations and eliminates
the delay centers often occasion.
Penn's New Schedule
Starts With Gettysburg
Special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia, Feb. 4.—The board of
directors of the University of Pennsyl
vania Athletic Association met yester
day afternoon and officially adopted
the 1914 football schedule. The sched
ule was presented by Manager Austin
and ratified by the directors. The
schedule consists of nine games, with
eight of them on Franklin Field, the
only game away being at Ann Arbor
with Michigan.
The schedule is changed quite a
little this year. State College is
dropped and the Navy is taken on in
their place, while Brown is dropped.
The undergraduates feel sorry that
State College is omitted, but the com
mittee felt that they had to choose
between Penn State and the Indians.
Brown was dropped because no date
could be arranged between the two
colleges. Michigan will be played in
Ann Arbor at the request of Coach
Yost. Following is the schedule:
September 26 —Gettysburg, Frank
lin Field.
October 3—Franklin and Marshall,
at Franklin Field.
October 10—Lafayette, at Franklin
Field.
October 17 Navy, at Franklin
Field.
October 24 lndians, at Franklin
Field.
October 31—Swarthmore, at Frank
lin Field.
November 7—Michigan, at Ann Ar
bor.
November 14—Dartmouth, at Frank
lin Filed.
Thanksgiving—Cornell, at Franklin
Field.
Scholastic Games
This Week's Feature;
Important Battles
Scholastic games this week will in
clude Central and Lebanon High at
the Chestnut Street Auditorium and
Tech High against Lancaster High at
the Tech gymnasium. Both games
will be played Friday evening and
there is a strong bid for patronag'e.
Tech was defeated by Lancaster
High earlier in the season and as this
is the only time Lancaster will be segfn
in Harrisburg many will want to see
the battle at Tech, the Lancaster five
being strong contenders with Central
High for Central Pennsylvania cham
pionship honors for this season.
Central High has a good chance for
landing the championship and, while
Lebanon with a strengthened team
expects to give Central a hard battle,
another victory is almost certain to
come to the local stars Friday night.
Indications are that Central High toss
ers will this season go ahead of all
records for winning games and Tun
ing up big scores. Central in Rote
has the one big star who will figure
first In the selection of an all-star
scholastic five.
LOYALTY
I found thee false, and at Truth's
shrine
No more I knee a devotee.
All lies I'll pledge in golden wine,
If I may drink to toastß with thee.

Smart Set.
Franciscan Girls
Lost Close Contest
At York last night the St. John
Girls' Friendly Society basketball team
celebrated the opening of its home
season by defeating the Franciscan
Girls' quintet, of Harrißburg; score,
11 to 10.
The contest was close from the start.
Both teams started scoring with foul
goals and were again tied at 3 when
a field goal was caged by each side.
The Friendly five then jumped into
the lead with a field goal and main
tained it until the end, although the
visiting team gave them a hard fight
throughout the second half. The Har
ris burg girls scored five points in the
second period to two by the Friendly
players. The latter's four-point lead
assumed in the first half turned the
tide in their favor. Miss Zudrell, of
the Harrisburg, team, had a chance to
tie the score from the foul line during
the last few minutes of play, but
missed the shot by a narrow margin.

York Is Preparing
For George Graham
George M. Graham, recently elected
president of the Tri-State League, will
make a trip within the next two weeks
to look over conditions and become
acquainted with the backers of the
York Athletic Club.
It will be the first of a number of
trips he expects to make to York dur
ing the next six months. If arrange
ments can be made, the York directors
will endeavor to get Mr. Graham to
make one of the short talks he intends
to give in the cities over the circuit.
Nothing of importance 1b announced
by York. The new company back of
the York Athletic Club will doubtless
be formed during the coming week.
Acting President J. J. Gerrv has re
ceived several cards from players on
the York club's reserve roster who
were sent contracts a few days ago to
the effect that they would sign their
agreements and send them in later.

Thinking of Quality
1 hese days, most men when they think of a smoke, think of
King Oscar 5c Cigars
It's the way quality always affects the mind. Its influence
is simply irresistible. Think of soap, silver, flour and what
not and the quality kinds are the ones you instinctively
think of.
It's a good thing, too.
