"Kid" Strieker Will Try Again;
Has Cut Out Ail Bad Hab.ts
Promising Young Star Who Exploded Last Season Has
Signed to Play With York
"Kid" Strieker, the York pitcher
whose advent Into the Trl-State
League was to have been a season's
sensation, but who went to pieces,
will be given another trial by Man
ager George Washington Heckert.
A letter from the young twirler an
nounces that he has "sown his wild
oats" and is In good physical condi
tion. Strieker writes that his arm is
as good as ever, and that if he does
not make good will ask no pay.
Strieker started last season like a
house afire. Manager Heckert took
his squad to New Cumberland before
the season started last year and
.Strieker twirled for New Cumberland.
| The York players, nearly all of
whom were veteran professional play
ers, were "standing on their heads"
j trying to reach the "Kid's" slants, and
Jackrabbit Sausage Is
Good, Declares Farmer
Special to The Telegraph
Balllnger, Texas, March 20.—1t has
been discovered that jackrabblta can
be made into excellent sausage. Ex
perimenters say the sausage is more
palatable than that made of pork.
Jackrabblts are found in such abund
ance In west Texas that they are a
nuisance and a real menace to grow
ing crops. A widespread demand for
the sausage would rid this section of
a pest as well as help, to lower the
high cost of living.
"Jackrabbit sausage has a taste
somewhat similar to what chicken
sausage would be," said a Runnels
county farmer who has the delicacy
on his table regularly. "It also has a
tinge of the so-called 'wild' taste,
which makes its flavor delightful. I
first tried mixing the meat with pork
sausage, but found that the rabbit
meat alone made an even tastier food.
The wohder Is that the discovery was
not made before this time. The sup
ply is practlcaly unlimited at the pres
ent time, and the manufacture of the
sausage on a commercial scale prob
ably would prove extremely profit
able."
Supervisors Organize

Sixty-four road supervisors of North

shape for the game to-night at Cathe

only for errors back of him. Strieker
would have won the game, for he al
lowed only four hits.
Heckert at once signed him to play
with the York team and he kept up
the good work by downing the Chi
nese nine In an exhibition game and
then winning five out of his first seven
starts against Trl-State League teams
after the season opened.
Strieker, like many others just
starting out in league ball, could not
stand prosperity and rumors of night
ly orgies reached the ears of the York
leader. Then Strieker started to go
to pieces and after ho had been ham
mered hard in two or three games
Manager Heckert released him. In his
letter to Manager Heckert, yesterday,
Strieker s id that he intends to stick
to the straight and narrow path.

Wilson's Toll Policy
Is Opposed by Voters
Washington, D. C., March 20. A
Democratic member of Congress from
Ohio who is carrying on a referendum
with a view of ascertaining the Presi
dent's degree of popularity, said that
a majority of the letters written to
him by his constituents say that the
President's policies are generally ap
proved except as to canal tolls, there
being a surprising amount of opposi
tion to the President's recommenda
tion for repeal of the provision in the
canal bill allowing the free passage of
American vessels. There is also some
criticism of his Mexican policy.
