CLASSY BASKETBALL
THIS WEEK'S PROGRAM
Rare Sport Promised by Scholastic
Teams Tonight; Gettysburg
Here Saturday
Harrisburg basketball fans have no
kick coming on this week's attrac
tions. Two important scholastic games
arc scheduled for to-night. Tech will
meet Williamsport High on Tech gym

have York as their opponents at Chest
nut Street Auditorium. Harrisburg
will meet the crack Gettysburg College
five at the Armory to-morrow night.
Tech hopes to get out of the slump
to-night providing Tittle gets back.
Beck is still ill and will not be able
to even seen to-night's game unless
there is a decided change to-day. He
is suffering with a severe cold and has
been advised to remain at home. How
ever, Percy L. Grubb, the Athletic
director, has been training his squad
with the scrubs and hopes to win out
from Williamsport High to-night. The
Billtowners have a strong team and
hold the record for victories in their
end of the State. This game starts at
8 o'clcok.
j York High is coming to Harrisburg
j fully intending to get revenge for the
recent defeats at the hands of Central,
but they will have to go a fast clip, for

pionship form and winning games
from the best scholastic teams in Cen
tral Pennsylvania. York has been
showing better form the past three
weeks. Between the halves to-night
the Central scrubs will play the
St. Paul five.
Because of the frequent request for
college games, Manager E. C. Tag
gart. of the Harrisburg five, has made
special efforts and succeeded in sched
uling Albright, Gettysburg and Buck
nell. The first game was played with
Albright last Saturday night. The
game with Gettysburg should be a
very exciting contest, as Gettysburg

game of basketball. Gettysburg will
have with them Scheffer, formerly of
Tech. who will be remembered for his
football ability.

Rival Baseball Forces Quiet;
I Expect First Pat tie Today
Federals May Announce a New York Franchise When
Opening Gun Is Fired; Evers Still Holds Out
By Associated Press
New York, Feb. 13.—Tho rival
baseball forces remained In town to
day with each side apparently wait
ing upon the other for soma aggress
ive move. The rumor will not down
that the purpose of the Federal man
agers in coming to New York was
to make arrangements for a club with
in the confines of Greater New York.
The announcement yesterday that
tho National Commission had decided
to bar any ball players who jumped a
signed contract or the reserve rule
and that the Players' Fraternity,
lieaded by Davo Fultz, would work
with the big leagues in this respect,
did not disconcert the Federal man
agers.
Jimmy "Cabby" Winner \
Over the "Sailor Boy"
Los Angeles, Cal., Feb. 13.—!
"Jimmy" Clabby, the Hammond, Ind., I
middleweight, was given the decision
over "Sailor" Petroskey, of San Fran- |
cisco in a twenty-round bout at Ver- |
non yesterday. Clabby is the boy who
wants to beat out middleweight aspir
ants, including Leo Jlouck, of Lancas
ter, Pa.
It was ClabUy's second victory over
the former bluejacket, and he went
into the ring a big favorite, but his
chances were no more than even by
the time the twelfth round had been
reached. He could not stop the sailor
and Petroskey landing an occasional
smash or swing,badly damaged his
mouth and eyes. '
Clabby regained a lead after the
twelfth and seemed to have, the sailor
a trifle distressed in the twentieth.
Petroskey bore a few -scars of the
battle out of the ring. The decision
went against him on the points scored
by his clever opponent.
Foul Goal Won
Game For the Tigers
Dropping of a foul toßs into the
basket one minute before the whistle
blew last night gave the Tigers a vic
tory over the Clubs, score 27 to 26.
It was one of the best P. R. It Y. M.
C. A. League games seen this season.
In the second game the Giants de
feated the Phillies, score 81 to 6. The
standing of the teams follows:
Standing of the Teams
W. L. P. C.

Pirates 8 4 .666
Phillies 0 7 .416

DICK EAGAX PURCHASED
TO PLAY WITH miOOKLYN
Tho Brooklyn club, probably de
spairing of weaning Tinker away from
the Federals, has closed an option
with the Cincinnati club for Dick
Egan, the former Ilarrisburg second
baseman. The price was $5,000. Egan
will probably fill the gap at short
stop for the Brooklyns. Due to the
fact that Egan was never given an
opportunity to show his worth with
the "Reds." Egan has been trying to
get on another team.
Ban Johnson said the disbarment
rule would bo strictly enforced and
that other war measures against the
Federals had been planned and would
be made public when occasion for
their use developed.
Johnny Evers, the deposed man
ager of the Chicago Nationals, is ex
pected to decide In the course of the
day whether ho will go to the Boston
Nationals or with the new organiza
tions. There was a report late last
night that Joe Tinker, his one-time
side partner in the Chicago club, had
succeeded in signing Evers for the
Federals for three years at $15,000 a
year, but this was denied by Presi
dent James A. Gilmore, of the Fed
eral League.

There is nothing serious, nothing

be to the hypochrondriac who resents I
being made to laugh. In Mrs. Fiske's
play, Mrs. Bumpsteud-Leigh," in which
she is to appear at the Majestic Thea
ter on Thursday, ebruary 19. On her
former tours, Mrs. Flsko has appeared
principally in serious, sometimes un
happy p ays, and in fact has been gen
erally identified with productions that
appealed more to the Intellectualities
of the theatergoer than to his risibili
ties. In the Present instanco this does
not obtain, as "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh"
places no tax upon the mentality otTier
than that required to appreciate the
crisp and highly effective dialogue of
the author and the wonderfully genu
inely comic characterization given by
Mrs. Flake.—Advertisement.
