ORL fCR fl NEWARK PROJECT IS NOT TIEN SERIOUSLY International Owners Can Take Chance at Their Own Ex pense; Reason Lacking Publication in a Philadelphia paper that the Newark team of the Interna tional League would seek a location here, caused a stir in Harrisburg to day. The "angel," or bunch of phil anthropists, who propose to finance this project, were in hiding to-day. Men who have been back of base ball in Harrisburg laugh at the propo eion. Xo arguments were advanced showing that the transfer of Newark to Harrisburg would be a financial Fiiccess. An announcement that the International League was tottering, was made some time ago. The salary limit in the Internation al league is higher than that of the Trl-State. Newark with a much larger population has failed to sup port a team, even with Sunday games. In the opinion of local backers, the enly way Newark could get into Har ilsburg would be to have the present uwners finance the project. Manager J. Harry Messersmith, of the Harrisburg team, who has the lease on Island Park, stated to-dav • that there was little likelihood of the Newark team locating here and that league baseball was wanted, but he could not see how the Newark owners would profit by transferring the team to Harrisburg." Bass Drum Factor In Athletes' Success Special to The Telegraph lowa City, lowa, June s.—Phychol-! ogy and a bass drum are the latest j trainers at the University of lowa' which may so condition Chuck Rowe, star high jumper, as to win for him lirst honors in the high jump at the Big Nine conference meet at Urbans to-day. Here is Watson's new method: He drags cut a bass drum every afternoon and plays a steady roll on it as Rome is running his takeoff; then just as the high jumper fronts the bar. Wat- Kon gives the deerskin a bang and over Rome goes. And it does work. "Watson says its the psychology of the thing. However that may be, Rowe's dally performance is close around 6 feet, and once he went 6 feet 3 inches, clearing 'the bar in excellent style. Watson says he wishes he had Adopted music as an assistant some time ago. "Red" Farrell Still a Star; Plays in Three-I League "Red" Farrell, a former Trl-State star, well known in Harrisburg. is still in the game. He is a right fielder on the Davenport team of the Three I League. Referring to the Memorial Day games a Davenport exchange, cays: "Farrell played in two games on Memorial Day, his playing practically winning both games. The Davenport Democrat and Leader' of Tuesdav morning had the following to sav of Farrell's work: 'Red' Farrell was the bright particular star of the two games. It was a whale of a holidav for the right fielder. In his six statis tical times at the bat in both games. Farrell made five hits, including two doubles." I ©uaKfar I (I Superb ill IB SATURDAY EVENING, STAR PITCHER AND MANAG " Fi*T SROVER CLEVELAND When Pat Moran. former catcher of the Chicago Cube, took the man agement of the Phillies of the National League from Charley Dooin, there were predictions that he would be a bje to accomplish little. Then when his star payers began to melt away to the Federal League, fans who didn t like the change were certain he would do nothing this season. But Moran has surprised them. He kept his club in the lead of the league for several weeks and is now neck-and-neck with the Cubs. But he wouldn't have done that without the help of "Alexander the Great," Grover Cleveland Alexander, believed to be. the first pitcher in baseball to-day. Alexander is a Democrat, as his name implies, and a Nebraskan. He is six feet tall, 175 pounds in weight and 2 7 years old.
