REGISTERED SROOT
PLANNED FOR JULY
Crack Shots From All Over United
States Will Come to Harrisburg
Including the Topperweins
Plans for <a two-day registered tar
;ct shot were completed last night by
the Harrisburg Sportsmen's Associa
tion. The shoot will be held on Sec
ond and Division street grounds, Tues
day and Wednesday, July 7 and 8. A
field of not less than 100 shooters will
be here for two days.
The shooting will start at 10
o'clock in the morning and continue
until 6 p. m. White flyers will be
used. Notwithstanding the fact that
the big plant of the White Flyer
Manufacturing company was burned
down recently, local members an
nounce that there will be 50,000 white
flyers on band. Added money in all
events is also announced.
For practice and special events, blue
rocks will be used if requested. This
shoot will take place rain or shine. On
the tirst day an added feature will
be an exhibition of rancy and trick
shooting by Air. and Mrs. Adolph Top
perwein, starting at 4 o'clock.
World Famous Shooters
Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Topperwein
will give an exhibition of expert and
fancy shooting. It will be a revelation
to all of the wonderful possibilities of
modern arms and ammunition in the
hands of the greatest experts.
Mr. Topperwein is the acknowledged
dean of fancy and trick shots, and his
many feats are of a highly sensational
character. Mrs. Topperwein has no
equal among women for adeptness in
shooting.
The Harrisburg Sportsmen's Asso
ciation offers this exhibition free of
charge. Everybody is Invited.
Mr. Topperwein is the originator of
many marvelous fancy and trick shots
and also of the feat of drawing the
heads of Indian chiefs and other pic
tures with bullets shot from a rifle.
Rifle shooting is not his only acquire
ment, as he does wonderful work also
with revolver, pistol and shotgun.
Mrs. Topperwein, who also repre
sents the Winchester Repeating Arms
company, is undoubtedly the premier
lady shot of the world. Although she
took up shooting only a few years ago,
she has startled the shooting world
and entertained many thousands of
people by her great skill with rifle,
shotgun and pistol. Shooting comes
natural to her, as without seeming
difficulty she masters various kinds of
shooting quickly.
Her lirst public appearance was at
the world's fair in St. Louis, where,
■with a Winchester automatic rifle, she
broke 96 7 out of 1,000 2V2 inch flying
targets; and later 1,995 out of 2,000
With a straight run of 1,437.

"Hecks" Awful Threat
Will Move His Team
York is again shaky over the pros
pects of losing league baseball games.
Heckert is sore over the feeling against
him. The York Dispatch says:
"That the financial condition of the
York Tri-State league club is such
that unless aid is given it within the
next week, steps will be taken to
transfer the franchise to another city,
was the announcement made by Man
ager Heckert, principal stockholder,
following a special meeting of the di
rectors held ih the Colonial hotel
building last night. The meeting was
called for the purpose of finding out
the financial status of the team, and
the report made by Secretary Guy
Morrow showed the club to be with
out money to pay off the players for
their services up until the past Mon
day.
"The slim attendance at games at
the West End park, has wiped away
the reserve fund secured before the
opening through the sale of season
books and by other means, and the
backers of the club, including the li
rectors, have refused to put any more
of their money into the venture. It is
believed that if enough money is se
cured to tide the club over several
more weeks, the attendance will begin
to pick up and the club will be en
abled to finish the season here. An
other meeting will be held to-morrow
night, at which time the question of
whether the transfer is to be made or
not, will be decided upon."
BREAST STROKE BEST FOR
ALL-AROI'ND SWIMMING
The breast stroke, with its possi
bilities, is being overlooked in the
striving after speed and easy meth
ods of acquiring the art of swimming
It is a method of propulsion which hat
been developed to its greatest possi
bilities as to form by few swimmers.
In a recent article on swimming
and in other older descriptions th.
breast stroke has been described a.<
half standing, half lying in the wa
ter on the stomach and breast. Ap
plication of new principles evolved
fri
-.'oni the recently developed strokes
will give better results. For instance
there.is a great deal of. wasted energ>
In pushing upward instead of forwari:
if the position usually described Is
taken. And, again, too much resist
ance for rapid or easy progress is of
fered Ij.v the water.
A point In favor of the breast stroke
is that the period when the arms and
legs are not in motion is greatly In
excess of the period of motion. If
the stroke Is mastered properly the
body Is gliding from six to seven feet
after each stroke and no exertion Is
made at this time. For long dis
tances, for ease and comfort, It can
be made to have no rival except pos- j
sibly the back stroke, Hut it can he
used In a choppy or rough sea or in
the surf to better advantage than the
buck stroke.—July Outing.
Joe Chabek Loses Out
in Game With Chicks;
Errors Were a Factor
I "Wilmington, Del., June 20. Wil
mington won from Harrisburg yester
day, score 7 to, 3. The Chicks took
the game with Chabek in the box. It
was a ca£e of "a pitcher going to the
well once too often." Field work
along with his mound duties proved
too great a strain for the old reliable.
It was the first time Wilmington has
done against Chabek in two seasons.
Harrisburg was off in lielding, but
were tfte real swatters. Cockill and
Miller each had a home run.
Wilmington scored Hrst in the sec
ond inning. Jackson flied out, Meyers
singled, stole second, went to third on
an error. Sharpe walked, Pearce flied
out. Schollenberger singled, scoring
Meyers and Sharpe.
In the sixth Jackson made a three
bagger, Meyers sacrificed and scored
Jackson. Sharpe got.first on an error,
Pearce doubled and scored Sharpe.
Shollenberger was hit, Swallow sin
gled and Pearce and Shollenberger
came borne on Morgan's single.
In the seventh Jackson walked, ad
; vanced on Meyers' single and again on
Sharpe's sacrifice and s'ored on a hit
by Pearce.
Harrisburg started in the fourth.
Cockill made a home run. In the sixth
Crist made a single, advanced on
'CockiU's out and came home on Mil
ler's home run. The score:

BITS OF SPORTS
It was hard work downing an over-
I worked pitcher, but the Chicks did It.
Well, they can't do it again.
Baseball fans cannot understand
why pitchers are scarce.
York fans are sore because Man
ager Heckert won't allow them to run
the team. York is a town good for
amateur baseball and very little of
that.
President Graham says every team
will go through the season and there
will be no kick coming when the game
is over.
AGOGAS OX THE MOVE;

twilight game for the Agogus last

Agoga batters had Pitcher "Hop"
Grisqinger up in the air. This.after
noon the Agogas clashed witn the
Methodist club.
On July 4 Manager Russel will take
his team to Carlisle to play two games
with the Carlisle A. C. The Agoga
team will go to Carlisle by automo
bile. The Agoga team has a few open
dates for twilight games. Address J.

New London, Conn., June 20.—8y a
