Francis Ouimet, amateur golf cham pion, In a garrison finish over the Greenwich County Club course yes terday, hung up a record that is like ly to stand for some time. Ouimet made 69 In three strokes. This beats both amateur and professional records. As usual, too, under such circumstances there were two or three soft spots in the round, including a 6. that made observers tremble for what have been done. The national amateur champion probably would not have been roused to such a pitch had he not been put out of the first division In the opening round by a college youngster, who until recently was quite unknown. The surprising nature of the develop ments was well summed up by Grant Peacock, Pittsbnrgher and Prince tonian, when be won 2 up and 1 to go, by saying "its funny enough to be published In the comic weeklies." Ouimet's record card: Out 5 2 4' 5 4 4 4 4 4—3fi In 33346334 4—33—89 When the match play began in the morning SIOO at even money was of fered on Ouimet against the field. Peacock's capital game was the largest factor in Ouimet's retirement. Following the intercollegiate ten days Peacock is near the top of his game, and what is more, he played care fully. Ouimet, on the other hand, was off on his putting as yesterday, showed a tendency toward wildness and clearly underestimated his oppo nent. Even before the turn was reached it was clear that Ouimet stood in danger and not a few wagers were hedged. Ouimet was more than wild at several points, he was downright sloppy, especialy on his tee shots. MECJIANICSBURG WANTS GAMES Mechanlcsburg A.

Reed Is Named For Congress Dover, Del.. Sept. 23. Former henchmen of J. Edward Addicks dominate the Progressive party in Delaware. This was disclosed at the Progressive convention, which nomi nated a State ticket. George B. Hynson, of Milford, the permanent chairman, told the dele gates that the nominees faced a "good licking in November," but said the Progressives needed martyrs. The Rev. George Edward Reed, for mer president of Dickinson College and at present pastor of Grace Meth odist Episcopal Church in Wilming ton, was nominated for Congress. His selection was unexpected, as it was thought the place would be given to one of the Progressive chieftains. Progressive leaders of two years ago were conspicuous by their ab sence, while the influx of former Ad dicks followers furnished an interest ing observation. Fall of Jaroslaa Is Decisive Stroke By Associated Press London, Sept. 23, 1.40 p. m.—The fall of Jaroslau, the Austrian fortified position in Galicia, is regarded here as the most decisive stroke announced In the continental battlefields in the past twenty-four hours. The Russian occupation of this important fortified railroad center is considered in Lon don as likely to have a greater effect on events in the western arena of the war than anything reported from France for several days past.

Iv'D BY COUNTY AUDITORS In referring to a surcharge audit tale in an evening newspaper, the County Commissioners to-day simply exhibited the receipted bill for the item in ques , tion which had been O. K'd by the presi dent of the auditing board. The story was to the effect that the auditors had declared their Intention of surcharging the County Commission ers with sr>o. This sum. It was repre sented, was paid to the Telegraph Printing Company for printing the 1912 audit. The auditors, according to tlie story, objected to the Telegranh being paid S2OO for the audit, when the other local papers, with less circulation and consequently lower advertising rates, had agreed to do It for less. 11l exhibiting the receipted hill to-day Commissioner S. S. Miller said: "The paper that did the printing of the audit was not selected by the Coun ty Commissioner, but by the auditors themselves. The County Commissioners had nothing to do with the paying of the bill, until after It had been O. K'd by the auditors. And here is the re ceipted bill." This was dated August 13. 1913, and was stamped "Paid." The statement simply said, "To Telegraph Printing Company for printing audit for 1912, S2OO. O. K. J. W. Cassel, President Board of County Auditors." HIIH.K CI.ASS ANXIVFRSARY Sfei'ial to The Telegraph Union Deposit, Pa., Sept. 23.—0n!

SCH BROOKE WILL IMBEHJIS PUB Pen Football Team Will Try Plan in Game With Gettysburg on Saturday Special to The Telegraph Philadelphia, Sept. 23. Coach Brooke, of the University of Penn vania, will number his players in the game with Gettysburg on Saturday. This feature was tried last season on the Indian-Dartmouth game and was pronounced a success. Harold Gaston, the scrub coach at Penn, wore a broad smile late yester day afternoon when his team held the varsity for downs on the one-yard line twice in succession. The third time, however, proved to be the scrubs' undoing, for after Vic Ballou had made a sensational 15- |yard run around right end, Tighe shot ! through center and across the goal , line for the first and only touchdown that was made during a half hour of play. The men were driven unusually hard yesterday because of the near ness of the Gettysburg game. In a blazing sun which shone down on Franklin Field all day, the athletes got a taste of the amount of work that will be required of them In the future. Penn Boxers Get Ready For F. & M. Matches Sfecial to The Telegraph Philadelphia, Sept. 23. George Decker, coach of the University of Pennsylvania's boxing team, will issue a call for candidates within a short time and expects over sixty aspirants to report. For the past four years Decker, who was formerly famous as a lightweight fighter/ has been instructing students of old Penn. During the first two years the men did not show an apti tude for boxing. Finally, due to the efforts of Decker and I>r. Tait Mc- Ken/.ie, physical director of the Uni versity, boxing was put on a firm foundation. The year was divided into two terms, Fall and winter. Last year in the Fall session there were about sixty men learning the rudi ments of the game. After football came to a close some of the gridiron heavyweights joined the squad. An effort was made to hold an intercol legiate tournament between the teams of the Eastern colleges last year, but it fell through. One result, however, was the formation of teams under competent instructors In several col leges. Penn will meet Franklin and Marshall during November. TIG ICRS' WORK < JIT KSTION Kl»: CHARGED WITH LAYING DOWN Detroit, Mich., Sept. 23. The charge is made here that the Tigers are "laying down" to the Boston Red Sox, hoping that by handing them four games they will be close enough to the Athletics to make a fight for the pennant. The reason given is that the Red Sox are members of the Baseball Players' Frateruity, while the Athletics have steadfastly refused to join It. The charge was first made yester day morning, when attention was called to the fact that Detroit had won ten of the last eleven games, beuting the Athletics two out of three, and that the pitchers were doing fine work, but when Boston appeared here, the team went to pieces; not one De troit pitcher could be found who could prevent even the weakest of the Red Sox landing on the hall; long hit balls Invariably got past the Tiger fielders for extra bases, while the catchers turned back practically all the Mack men base stealers, the Red Sox ran wild, and so on. lAMuseooenrei MAJESTIC Friday and Saturday.

OHI'HEUM To-day Harrisburg Is declaring Ben Rolfe's "Lonesome Lassies" the finest I miniature musical comedy we have seen. After the presentation of his de lightful production, "The Bride Shop," lit would seem next to Impossible to I bring anything to Harrisburg that I would even be on a part with that at traction. Nevertheless "The Lonesome I Lassies" is a musical comedy that em | braces so much clever entertainment that it will please the most fastidious. The players are talented and some of them have attainted considerable repu tation in musical comedy. And the chorus of girls are just the prettiest group of lassies anybody could wish to I see. The tuneful lyrics that are scat- I tered throughout the act are of the I catchy kind, and they will likely be heard about the streets long after the attraction has gone. The interesting thread of plot has to do with a clever chap who has followed a pretty girl to her summer home and in the meantime she had engaged a moving picture man to take pictures of the girls. Both ar rive at the same time and there was a case of mistaken identity. And finally a burglar appears on the scene and he's going to rob the girl's home. Inno cently she offers to help him. and he steals the girl instead. All through the piece the action is interesting, and when one is not laughing at their fun. they are commenting on the girl's won derful gowns. "The Lonesome Las sies" are scoring a decided hit with Or pheum audiences. Other clever and ' really meritorious Keith bits are | grouped about the big headliner. Ad- I vertisement.
