Mercersburg Star
Is Yale's Best Find
Special fi> The Tciegraph
New Haven, Conn.. Oct. 12.—Harry
Le Gore, the fullback, is the football
lind of the year so far this season at
Vale Field. This boy, who started at
Mercersburg Academy, has been show
ing up well in practice aud did ex
« client work in the Maine and Vir
ginia games, and now at the beginning
of the fifth week of practice he is
showing conclusively that Pumpelly
and Guernsey, as soon as the latter is
eligible, will have to show much more
than they have so far been able in
order to get the position away from
him. •
Le Gore is an excellent punter and
combines accuracy with distance in
his punting. His punts are not as
high as many of his predecessors, and
they are harder to get down under.
He Is also good at kicking goals from
placement, and Pr. Bull Is develop
ing him as a drop kicker.
But it is in forward passing that he
is showing the greatest promise. This
has been shown in the dally practice
its well as in the Maine game. This
is his first year on the varsity squad.
I.ast year he played on the freshman
eleven.
Football is to I.e Gore a secondary
attraction, however, for he was of
fered a 55.000 salary bv Connie Mack
to join the Athletics when a student
at Mercersburg Academy, hut de
clined it. preferring not to play pro
fessional ball.
LAST YKAH'S HITTERS
AGAIN IN I.IMKI.IGHT
Special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia. Oct. 12.—The same
men who led the hitting In the big
leagues last year are shown by the
final unofficial figures for 1914 once
more to have come through in first
place. Tv Cobb ie the American pre
mier. a place which he has now held
for eight seasons, ever since 1907.
Daubert topped the Rational.
Philadelphia clubs in both instances
furnished the runners-up. Collins is
second in the American League and
Becker in the National . Mclnnis was
right behind Collins. Baker. Magee
and Cravath were other local .300
hitters.
The Athletics led in cluh batting
ant". Boston in long hits. Speaker, of
the Bed Sox. passed Carwford under
the wire for the long-distam e honors.
The Macks' fielding was the best in
the league, and Bender, with eighteen
games won and four lost, was the
twirling premier of the younger or
ganization. Bressler. Pennock. Plank
and Wyckoff all rated high.
Brooklyn topped the National* In
club hitting and the Phillies in long
drives. Magee and Cravath were the
boss long-distance hitters.
The Braves had the best fielding
team and presented in James the win
ning pitcher of the league.
BRICKLEY OUT OF GAME
WITH APPENDICITIS
Special lo Tht Telegraph
Cambridge, Mass.. Oct 12.—Charles
E. Brickley, Harvard's star drop
kicker. and captain of the season's
football team, was rushed to the hos
pital Saturday and operated on for
appendicitis.
Brickley reported for practice Fri
day and went through in good shape.
The news of his illness leaked out just
as his Crimson football warriors came
upon the field to battle Washington
and Jefferson.
This is a serious blow to Harvard's
chances, as the star drop-klcker will
probably never be seen in action again
for the Crimson. Harvard enthusi
asts and the college In general have
taken the sad news to heart, as they
know what Brickley's big toe has
done for Harvard.
This leaves the Har\ard team minus
its star backfleld. Mahan is out for
two weeks or more, due to a pulled
tendon, while Logan Is suffering from
a lame shoulder.
GOVERNOR JOHN K. TENER
PRAISES BOSTON BRAVES
Governor John K. Tener was
greatly pleased over the prospect
that the National League would
regain the baseball supremacy of
the major leagues.
"As a Pennsylvanlan. I regret
to see honors taken away from
the State," he said, after the game
Saturday, "but I can't help admire
the courage and the indomitable
fighting spirit of the Braves.
"James is one of the best pitch
ers in the world and must receive
every credit for twirling such won
derful ball on such an important
occasion and before such a large
hostile crowd."

Results Bring Surprises
Tech High Wins From Sunbury in One-sided Battle; Next
Game With Steelton; Special Work This Week
Football dopesters all went wrong
on Saturday's results. In the predic
tion that teams were ready for real
battles they were also wrong. The
game played by the big colleges is
far from being satisfactory and the
smaller institutions are showing better
work than the big fellowiv The style
of game played on Saturday was
mostly open.
In scholastic circles the big surprise
was the defeat of the Steelton High
team by High, score 26 to 6.
The work of Steelton was not the kind
that has been seen in practice. Steel
ton must show better form against
Tech or they will be whipped un
mercifully.

Antwerp Is of Little
Value to German Army
London, Oct. 12, 10.20 A. M.—Ex
cept for a flopd of vivid details regard
ing the fall of Antwerp the British
practically cut off
from news from the front during the
past 12 hours. It is felt, however, that
events of tremendous moment either
are occurring or are impending in the
area about Lille where the cavalry of
the contending forces hn"e been In vio
lent contact for the past week.
The military critics for the London
morning papers devote . telr space to
speculation regarding the utility of
Antwerp for German offense or de
fence. Most of therti agree that unless
Dutch neutrality is violated Antwerp
will be of no more use in forwarding
Zeppelin and nAal raids on England
than other places In Belgium which
have been occupied for some time by
the Invaders. The agree, however,
that for military purposes in the west
ern theater of war the occupation of
Antwerp is of supreme importance to
Germany which now will be able to re
lease several divisions to aid the sorely
pressed right wing Furthermore the
capture of the city will Insure the lines
of communication should retreat be
necessary through Belgium.
Additional details of the shelling of
Antwerp indicate that the damage was
not as great as at first estimated.

MIY NOT ULLDW USE
OF "1NTISIII"
Judge McCarrell Indicates That
This Party Name Causes
Confusion
At a hearing in the Dauphin County
Court this afternoon before Judge Mc-
Carrell. the Court iniUeated that the of
ficial ballot next month will not eon
tain tlie name of "Non-Partisan
Party" as a party appellation.
After brief statements by counsel.
Judge McCarrell said that unless other
wise advised he will to-morrow make
an order refusing the use of "Non-Par
tisstn" as a party appellation, and
granting the defendants five days with
in whicb to amt-nd their papers by sub
stitution of another party appellation.
Such substitution within spch a period
is practically Impossible. ,
The candidates who are defendants
in these proceedings are Philadelphians
and Pittsburgeri..
The main objections to the papers
was the use of "Non-Partisan," as a'
party appellation would be confusing on
account of the official nonpartisan bal
lot which contains the names of can
didates for the Supreme and Superior
Courts.
The proceedings, of course, no way
affect the oftlical nonpartisan ballot,
and the names of the candidates for tlie
two courts will appear upon It accord
ing to statute.
