OLD MICMBEK WINS
IN ED. P W STYLE
Lets York Down With Three Bin
gles; Game Had Many
Sensations
Joe Chabek, the veteran twirler, got ■
into the Eddie Plank class yesterday, |
winning his game from York, score 5 j
to 0. Hine, the York pitcher had a!
good supply -1 everything but support, j
The fielding of Harrisburg was at
times sensational.
In nine innings but three York hit
ters sent the ball to the Held clean,
only one member of the White Rose j
bunch reached third base and he was j
helped there by an error. Chabek's j
puzzlers were working all the time, <
but it was in the pinches that the vet- |
eran pulled off a tew things that made j
the spectators squirm.
Wildness on the part of Hine, two I
stolen bases and hits by Emerson and i
Cockill started the trouble in the
third, which scored four runs for Har-1
risburg. Mlscues were also a part of I
York's fall down. A base on balls, j
stolen bases, out at tirst and Hopke's
error at third added the fifth run. i
Harrisburg's fielding and hitting by I
Miller and Cockill were Interesting]
features. Yale and Dundon were:
York's best bets. The score:

Manager Cockill Cuts Forces;
George Therre Is Let Out
Charley Miller Will Do Most of the Catching Barring Ac
cidents; Young Howe Hopes to Come Around Soon
Harrisburgwlll be away from home
for a few days starting to-day. The
Teutons will entertain the Cockill
crowd to-day and tomorrow. Then
will come another visit to Trenton.
Harrisburg returns for two games with
Reading on Monday and Tuesday.
In the opinion of Manager Cockill
the team will be going better from now
on. A few minor details must be
looked after to get the proper team
work. The hitters are coming strong,
and the only weak spot that is giving
Manger Cockill any concern is the
pitching staff.
In the opinion of the Senatorial
leader a prolonged spell of warm
weather will bring the team around.
Before his departure to-day Manager
Cockill announced his first weeding
out results. George Therre, the
catcher, was let go, unconditionally.
CHAM I'IOXSHIP SERIES
AT ISLAND PARK
Three important games are sched
uled for Island Park. The Harrisburg
Giants start the championship series
with the Pittsburgh Giants to-day.
These games promise to be of unusual
interest.
The Pittsburg Giants, managed by
Frank Grant, the first colored baseball
player who ever made good, are the
champions of the United States. Har
risburg Giants are champions of the
East. The battles at Island Park will
decide the world's championship as far

HXRRISBURG TELEGRAPH
Therre is a good man but Harrisburg
is overstocked with catchers and with
Charley Miller on the staff Manager
Cockill is the opinion that he will not
need another man of Therre's class.
Howe will be retained to help out.
This boy has the goods but injured his
arm at Bucknell and needs warm
weather to get rid of the kinks In his
muscles. Humsey, the little short
stop who was injured, was released as
were Raidy and Kunkel. The latter
obtained from York, was not a strong
probability. Harrisburg is well fixed
with pitchers.
Wyckoff was sent back to Reading
as Wlialen is showing the best work of
the season in the shortstop position.
Harrisburg still holds the option on
several good men including a former
twirler and there is a probability that
one or two changes may be made If
necessary.
as Harrisburg is concerned. If Har
risburg wins they must play the Cu
ban Giants at New York.
HIGH SCHOOL MEET
Saturday's State inter-high school
track and field meet netted just $181.50
for the park department.
The sum was obtained from the sale
of grandstand tickets and was turned
in directly to the general city fund.
In a resolution offered yesterday M.
Harvey Taylor, commissioner of parks
and public property, had the suns
transferred from the general fund to
the fund for maintenance of parks.
OUIMET ELIiITED
B! "YOUNG" TUBBS
Defeat of Favorite Casts Gloom
Over American Contingent; Eng
lishman Never in Danger
By Associated Press
Sandwich, Eng., May 20. —Francis
Ouimet, open golf champion of the
United States, was eliminated as a
contender for the British amateur
championship to-day. He was defeat
ed with apparent ease by "Young"
Tubbs, a boy player from a nearby
course at Liittlestone-on-Sea.
There was a huge crowd of specta
tors on hand for the Ouimet-Tubbs
match, including of course, a large
delegation of Americans. The en
thusiasm of the American gallery was
soon sharply cooled by the way in
which Tubbs handled their favorite.
Ouimet got into difficulties on the
fourth hole, taking seven strokes,
which Tubbs made it In a clean four.
The Englishman was never in danger
thereafter, although Ouimet made a
sensational three to his five on the
eighth hole and fought desperately all
the way in. At the turn Ouimet was
one down and Tubbs finished the
round with 2 up and 1 to play.
The defeat of Ouimet cast a gloom
over the American contingent, but the
cloud was partially dispersed shortly
afterward by the brilliant victories of
Frederick Herreshoff, New York, and
by Harold Weber, Toledo. Herre
shoff beat J. R. Piatt, of the Royal
North Devon Club by 4 up and 3 to
play. Weber beat K. M. Carlisle, of
Sunningdale, by 7 up and C to play.
MAY 20, 1914.
BITS OF SPORTS
Chabek was some pitcher.
Bill clay has not had a hit in soven
games.
Yale may be a veteran hut he plays
the game harder than any man on
York's team.
—When Harrisburg players do any
thing at York the scorers and news
papers are afraid to tell it.
Already there is talk about George
Washington Heckert playing the old
time game of getting players and
ignoring the salary rules.
Eddie Hooper is a clean cut player.
A team made up of players of the
Hooper type is a big asset.
Harrisburg has a hunch of players
who are in to win every game.
"Jimmy" Clark, late of Trenton, was
here yesterday to talk over business
matters with Heckert. He has a dental
practice at Pittsburgh and may not I
get into the game.
Home Run Johnson is now with the
.Tigers. A good man with the proper
person to handle him.
Byron Houck, one of Connie Mack's
staff, refused to go to Baltimore and
will join the Feds.
"Doc'' Kerr is doing great things in
the Federal League.
Walter Johnson, Catcher Ainsmith
and Outlielder Clyde Mylin of the
Washington American team, are
scheduled for a jump to the Feds.
Odd Fellows were out in force at
yesterday's game.
