8 PRINCETON SHI HEIR COMPLETION Will Be Ready For the Annual Bat tle With the Yale Football Eleven in November Princeton, N. J., Sept. 29.—Very little work remains to be done on Princeton's new stadium, the Kift of Edgar Palmer. 'O3. The unusual weather this summer was highly favorablo to work of this kind. Princeton's newest addition to her athletic equipment is practically-com plete. The first concrete was poured on June 29, at which time there were many who predicted that it would be impossible to finish the work in time for the Yale game this fall. But at the present time both sides of the horseshoe have been entirely com pleted and all of the structure is built for the remaining curve which will complete the work. All that remains to be done Is the pouring of the con crete on this curve. The engineers in charg© state that this will all have been done by October 10, which will leave Just a month until its opening for putting the finishing touches to j the completed work. Field Improvements The playing field has been given particular attention and is said to be the finest of its kind in the country. The seating capacity of the stadium is •JI.OOO. It is 672 feet long by 82n feet wide. The playing field Is 617 feet long by 250 feet wide. The height of the promenade, which runs around (he whole stadium at the top behind the seats, is 66 feet above the level of the field. Surrounding the playing field is a 4 40-yard cinder track and a 220 straightaway is provided along one eide of the field. A new field house for the con venience of the teams is to be con structed Just outside of the stadium at the cost of $20,000. The stadium proper will be easily emptied and filled by means of 26 exits. N Baseball Today; Scores of Yesterday ; WHERE THEY PLAY TODAY , National league Cincinnati at Philadelphia.

Etawah. the Ueers trotter, was the | sensational performer. In winning the I Chamber of Commerce Stake, he made j ' a world's record three-heat trotting' ' mark, regardless of sex or age. The I I total, 8:13%, Is just two seconds below i I that made by Hamburg Belle at Hart- j I ford, in the Charter "ak Stake race! in 190 S. Of the three heats, the third was] the fastest. Omar contended even het-f 1 ler than in the previous miles, fore-' ing the four-year-old to take a record ( of 2.03 %. which is new time fori trotters of this age. Ktawah earlier this year did an ex- ' hibition mile in 2:03%. His race rec-! ord was made here last Tues- ! I day in the fastest fourth heat ever: J trotted in a race.

OLYMPIC GAMES M\\ BE HEM) IN SPITE OF WAR 1 , New York, Sept. 29. —That thel Olympic games of Ifllfi will be held I 111 Berlin, despite the European w ; ar, I is indicated in a letter received by I the American Olympic committee yes-1 terday, from Rarnn Pierre de Cou- J hertin. president of the International , Tlympic Committee. The letter, mailed from Havre and is addressed to the j late James E. Sullivan, says:— "The sent of the VI Olympiad re-1 mains what it was, and, contrary to! what the American papers say, I will ] not personally make any proposal in I favor of a rhange. We never thought! the Olympic games would stop wars, and I feel perfectly sure that when the present war is over, the Olympic movement will begin again as strong ' and fruitful as ever." 1 On account of the war, it was sug gested some time ago by English < sportsmen that the games be held again in Sweden. In commenting on this suggestion, the late James E. Sul livan said that if it becomes necessary to shift the games from Berlin the 1 Fnited States would be the logical place in which to hold them. ARMY-NAVY GAME TO BE FIXED THIS WEEK Washington, Sept. 29.—Final set- 1 Ilenient of the controversy between j West Point and Annapolis over the se ' lection of the place for this year's ■ Army-Navy football game probably will be reached to-day or early to j morrow. Secretaries Daniels and Gar ; rison last night agreed to confer then j with the athletic officers of the two ; I service schools to consummate an I agreement. 1 Officials here are confident that this i year's game will be played in Phila j delphia, inasmuch as New York had r the contest last season. It is understood that the West Point I Athletic Association is willing to play i , I in alternating years over a period ofj ten years In Philadelphia and New! j | York, but the Navy objects to the time I I cluuse. j I : <.IKIiS WILL HOLD FKSTIVAI, | | Members of the Girls' Athletic Asso- : elation of Lincoln Grammar School, | State street, will hold a festival to | night on the lawn in front of the j school.

'Hans Lobert to Be Phillies' New Manager I Philadelphia, Sept. 29.—1t is vir tually assured that John R. Lobert ! " ill be named to succeed Charles S. , Dooin as manager of the Phillies, i Unless there is an unexpected hitch, i Lobert will receive the appointment I this week at a meeting of the direc- I tors. j This will come as a surprise to the I fans, as Lobert's name was never > mentioned for the post. There were reports that John Ganzel, Pat Moran or Roy Thomas might be picked. Lobert began his major league ca reer with the Cubs in the Fall of 1903. The following winter he was traded to Cincinnati, where he remained until the Dooin deal fetched him to this city. The prospective manager of the Phillies ranks among the greatest third basemen of the game. He is a hard hitter and a fast fielder. He is one of the fleetest runners in baseball. He holds the record for circling the bases, performing the feat in 13 4-5 seconds in a contest at Cincinnati on August 10, 1910.

OPENS THURSDAY Bear and Ducks Will Be Ready For Shooting, but Hard to Find; Small Game Later One more day and then comes the hunting season. Bears and wild ducks will be ripe Thursday. Harrisburg has a number of bear hunters, but they seldom start after the big game until two weeks after the season opens. The river is low and there is not likely to be very favorable conditions for duck hunting. Hunters, however, are a patient lot of fellows. They are willing to wait until they think it is time for bagging game. Local bear hunters claim there are too many leaves and bushes in Jf u JoS? £ fa Jaß^, Bill J SI i W A 100% Pure Turkish Cigarettes 10 cigarettes for 10c, 100% Turkish fJJftIW You have had UubiUl 20 cigarettes for 15c, Blended You have never before had 20 cigarettes for 15c, 100% In The New | Cc Foil Package w fori THI »MI»I0»» TOIICOO OOMMKT >£KSi2jo^Sjß| the woods and mountains for bears. As soon as a hunter is sighted by a bear bruin gets lost in the thickets. As for ducks, they are very scarce just now Later they are likely to make their appearance in large num bers. Hunters say ducks ought to be plentiful because of the spring season having been closed. Some local hunt ers do not look for a large number of ducks in this locality. They claim that on the marshes and lakes where ducks breed men rob the nests of eggs to supply the egg demand in the larger cities and that only in certain territories are ducks protected during the hatching season. Fifteen days from Thursday pheas ants, grouse and squirrels will be in season. This will keep the small game hunters busy. As in the past, small game is plentiful, but hunters will have to be careful where they trespass in search of game. Pocket Billiard Star Gives Great Exhibition Pocket billiardists in Harrisburg and vicinity witnessed some wonderful shooting at The Cav,e rooms, Market street, last night. O. P. Ephardt, tha Toledo champion, gave one of the best exhibitions ever seen in Harrlsburg. Ephardt is an artist. His fancy and trick shooting is interesting and difficult. Ephardt will be here for a weelc and is ready to meet all comers. His exhibition program will be changed every night. One of the shots Ep hardt makes is to pocket three bails on one mass shot. The cue ball drives first ball to cor ner pocket, then forces ahead and sends the second ball to lower left corner pocket, then takes English an«<) comes along the rail to the thir wf ball, driving it into lower right-hand pocket.
