SENSATIONAL PIAV
Take Two Games in Record Time;
Whalen Big Star; Clean
Hits a Feature
By "I'MP"
Baseball history was recorded at
Island Park yesterday. Harrisburg
took two games from Wilmington,
scores 8 to 1 and 3 to O. This hap
pened while Allentown was losing to
Trenton. Cockill's crew now has a
five-game lead on the Teutons.
Blue Monday was a sensational day.
The double-header was witnessed by
1.500 people, and few spectators left
before the battles ended. Joe Cha-!
bek won the first game, hanging up!
his twenty-fourth victory for the sea- j
eon. The one big star of the day!
was "Red" Whalen. His work at !
Ehort in the first game was wonder- j
ful. Stunts that the boy pulled off j
would have made him a certain prize !
for some major league team had
there been a scout on the grounds.
In the two games, Whalen hadl
eighteen chances without a miscue. I
He pulled off a hair-raising double
play unassisted, jumped four feet into
the air and pulled down a line drive
from Brown's bat that was labeled j
for three bases. But that was not all. j
In the eighth inning he signaled that i
be was going to steal home. Whalen i
lost the credit for the steal, but with
McCarthy, scored one of the greatest j
squeeze plays ever seen. Just at the'
time Whalen was sliding into home
plate, McCarthy tapped the ball and j
.beat it out to first base.
Other Stars in Game
The hitting of Cruikshank, Crist and I
was a big factor. Swallow, I
who was on the mound for the '
Chicks, smiled every time a hit was)
made. The bingles were all clean- (
cut. The second game was a battle i
between John Fox and Young Robin
son, the Wilmington High School boy.
Fox was strong in pinches. Emerson i
made his record drive in this game j
and was the most valuable man in I
scoring the runs.
In the first game Wilmington sr'ored
one run in the ninth on Swallow's;
single, an out at first and Brown's
double. Three singles in succession j
with a sacrifice gave Harrisburg two'
runs in the first. Cruikshank's triple!
with two passes, three singles and a
sacrifice added four in the second.!
Crist's double, an out from short to
first and Miller's sacrifice fly, drew one ;
in the fourth, and the eighth came!
in the seventh on three singles, a
stolen base, error by Schollenberger!
and the squeeze play.
In the second game Whalen's pass, !
his stolen base and Kmerson's single
brought one run in the second. Mil
ler's single, Whalen's forced hit and
Emerson's homer made it two in the
fourth. The scores:

TUESDAY EVENING,
Philadelphia Hopes to
Land Army-Navy Game
Special to The Telegraph
Annapolis, Aug. 18.—There was
general surprise at the Naval Acad
emy yesterday over official announce
ment that the Army-Navy football
same could not be played in Washing
ton this year. It was thought that the
national capital had been definitely
selected, but it is said that the only
procurable grounds were those belong
ing to the federaj government, and
that the use of them was coupled with
such conditions as to be out of the
question. It is also understood that
the ten year agreement between repre
sentatives of the services was contin
gent upon securing grounds in Wash
ington, for the game in alternate years
and that negotiations will have to be
taken up again, a possibility being that
the game will not be played at all.
The choice for the location of the
big service game will probably lie
metropolis as the seat of all the games,
between New York and Philadelphia.
The army will make a fight for the
but the navy is opposed to this. It
would probably choose Baltimore, if
a field with the necessary seating ca
pacity could be secured, and as a sec
ond choice would name Philadelphia.
As the matter stands it is exactly as it
was just after the last game between
the elevens of the service schools.

BLUE SLIP FOR "IMP"
Chicago. Ili., Aug. 18.—Umpire Van
Sycle was given ten days' notice of his
release yesterday by President Oil
more, of the Federal League, because,
in the presidents opinion, the arbi
trator did not properly enforce the
rules in Sunday's Chicago-Baltimore
game. During an argument over a
technical point Van Sycle. it is said,
several times called the time limit ori
Manager Tinker, telling the local
leader to send up the proper batter or
he would forfeit the game to the vis
itors. but he did not carry out his
threat, and his not doing so was dis
pleasing to Oilmore.

$30,000 for three years' service and a
block of stock in the club was under

mer manager of the Chicago Ameri

it was announced by President James

Several clubs want him as pitcher and
among them, it is said, is Chicago,
which is likely to get him if he is will

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
I nope that Europe will be at peace
again before 1916 and that there will
be no need of a change in the pro
gram," Mr. Sullivan said. "If, how
ever, a shift is necessary, the United
States is the logical country in which
to hold the games, and the American
committee will carry out the schedule
as planned by Germany without a
hitch of any kind.
"Should it prove desirable to post
pone the Panama-Pacific Exposition
until 1916, the Olympic games would
undoubtedly be held there in connec
tion with the fair. Chicago, Pitts
burgh. New York and Boston are all
available. New Haven and Syracuse,
with their big college stadiums, might
also be considered."

by others for the wonderful tone and j

faculty of making the classics popular j
