MIDWEEK ME
WITH CNHMBERSBUR9
George Stroh's Team Here Thur»-
day; Harrisburg Adds Another
Victory on Saturday
Harrisburg baseball fans will set
their first midweek game on Thursday.
Chainbersburg will be the attraction.
In order to ascertain the desire of
local business as to time for starting
games Manager J. Harry Messersmith
may start play at 2.30.
The Chambersburg nine is one of
the strongest independent organizations
in Central Pennsylvania. The man
ager, George' Stroh, is well known to
local supporters. For several seasons
Stroh was backstop on the Harrisburg
Trl-State team. He hits signed a bunch
of promising youngsters.
One More Victory
Harrisburg won Saturday's game,
defeating Elizabethtown, score 7 to 1.
Manager Messersmith had Kepford in
the box. He had everything needed
in the way of puzzlers. Kepford fanned
eleven men. Bishop, known as the
best amateur pitcher in Lancaster
county, took care of the firing line for
Elizabethtown. He struck out ten njen.
but his support was ragged. Harris
burg hit timely and at times fielded
in a sensational manner. The score
follows:
