uoard of Governors of Motor Club
Change Second Day Route Be
cause of Poor Roads
Distributions of numbers and pen
ants for the Publicity Run next week
were distributed to-day. Secretary J.
Clyde Myton of the Motor Club of
Harrisburg anticipates not less than
100 entries before Friday night. The
board of governors met last night and
approved plans to date.
In addition to the silver trophies, a
number of special prizes will be
awarded in various cities. There will
be drawings and awards at evgry stop.
George D. Proud, who has made a
canvas of every city through which the
local boosters will pass, returned to
Harrisburg yesterday. He is now busy
on the catalog which will be ready
by Saturday. Air. Prouil said:
"Harrisburg has never had a run
like this will be. It means the great
est advertising ever given the city.
In every town mayors, members of
Chamber of Commerce, and citizens in
general have planned to give the Har
rlsburgers a royal reception.
Welcome From Governor
"At Wilmington the governor, State
an 4 city officials will act as a reception
committee. Jt is up to the Harris
burg people to get Into this run. There
ought to be no less than 150 cars.
Wjth seventy-five silver trophies and
prizes awaiting the autoists in every
city, there is no reason why Harris
burg folks should not get busy. There
will also be souvenirs in every city."
At the meeting of the board of gov
ernors last night some changes were
made in the second day program. The
roads between Eldora and MUlville are
In a poor condition. This necessitated
abandoning the route from Stone Har

villa, to Bridgeton. The cars go from
Stone Harbor to Reservera, along the
shore boulevard via of Tickahoe, May's
Landing, Franklin, Woodstown and

Umpire Uses Shotgun
to Emphasize Decisions
Special to The Telegraph
Kansas City, Mo., May 5.—A base
ball umpire who carries an automa
tic shotgun is a reality on the North
Side. Rosa Plazatana, official umpire
for the North Side Jpool Hall teams,
| made his debut yesterday with his
armament on the grounds Just south
of the courthouse.
The novel spectacle of a man stand
ing In the center of the diamond
pointing a shotgun at a runner whom
he was attempting to halt and send
back to second base because of a
ground rule providing that a runner
take only one base on a passed ball,
attracted Prosecuting Attorney Jacobs
as he looked out of his office window.
Inquiry developed that Plazatana
consented to be umpire only on the
consideration that he be allowed to
carry something with which to defend
himself.

Final plans for the opening of the

cessfully appears the following:
"Flies breed and thrive in filth and
darry it into your home.
"Be ready for them with screens
and swatters.
"Repair broken screens. A hola In
the screen may eventually mean a
hole in your family circle.
"Flies multiply In garbage. Have
your garbage can emptied regularly
and keep it covered.
