Cook Folwell, former gridiron star of
the University of Pennsylvania, has
been called by his Alma Mater to
serve in the capacity of football
?oaeh at that institution for 1916 sea
son. The announcement that Folwell
had been finally selected as coach of
the Red and Blue gridiron warriors

reigns.

doubtable "Bob" wore the Red and
Blue on the gridiron, but since that
time the Quaker athlete has not lost
any of his old-time light. With the
coming of Folwell to the Quaker insti

IN BRITISH HOUSE
the great strength of the Austro-Ger
man defenses throughout the whole
district, around Czernowitz and dwell
on the great bravery displayed by the
Honved troops.
Czernowits is undoubtedly a valu
able vantage point for a further Rus
sian campaign. The Teutonic forces
are already deprived of the use of the
important railway from Czernowitz to
Zalestehitky, while the line from
Czernowitz to Kolomea is seriously
menaced.
Czernowitz has had a checkered ca
reer since the beginning of the war,
having already changed hands four
times. The Russians claim a great
bag of prisoners, including many Ger
mans.
The Greek Government has made
\ igorous protests to the entente pow
ers against the arrest of Greek sub
jects at Salonikt according to Athens
advices, its note demanding in ener
getic terms the Immediate release of
the. arrested persons.
Berlin hears that the Greek minis
ter at Sofia has informed Bulgaria
that Greece will use all means at her
disposal to support her recent protest
against the arrest of the German and
other consuls at S.ilonlki, Greece de
siring to maintain good relations with
the central powers.
A French official statement declares
Bulgarian detachments have been pil
laging villages on the Greek frontier.
London has advices that the Amer
ican ambassador at Berlin, James W.
Gerard, has conferred with the Berlin
foreign office regarding the sinking
of the steamer Persia.

Officials Are Cleared of
Ship Purchase Charges;
Roosevelt Is Denounced
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C„ Jan. s.—The
charges circulated during the last
session of Congress that Administra
tion otticials acted in the interest of
foreign business firms in urging the
passage of the government ship pur
chase bill wore held to be baseless in
majority and minority reports filed
to-day by the Senate committee ap
pointed to investigate them. Both
reports also found the shipping in
terests blameless of illegal activity in
opposition to the measure.
The majority denounced Theodore
Roosevelt for failing to appear be
fore the committee to testify concern
ing his published assertion that Presi
dent Wilson and Secretary Bryan
"had endeavored in the interest of
certain foreign business firms to se
cure for the United« States the power
to purchase the interned ships of one
of the belligerents."
Senator Sutherland presented the
minority report for himself, and
Senator Penrose. "We do not con
cur," it said, insofar as the report
defends the bill itself nor insofar as it
insists there would be no impropriety
in the purchase of the belligerents'
idle ships. We believe the bill a
thoroughly bad piece of legislation
and ascertain that to have purchased
the boats now seeking security in Am
erican harbors would have developed
trouble for the United States."

FOR GREAT BALL
Girls' Guilds and Sewing So
cieties Asked to Help Make
Flowers
If you should find Her very, very
busy In the midst of a lot of white and
delicately green and purple tissue pa
per and bits of wire and scissors and
paste and things, when you call 'round
most any evening this week, it is pretty
nearly certain that She is a member of
one of the many sewing clubs or
charity guilds of the city.
She'll probably be making bunches
of wistaria and Iris Tor the Japanese
garden at the charity ball.
More than a thousand bunches of
the purple and white wistaria blos
soms and at least GOO of the tall white
Iris will be needed for tills effective
feature of the decorative scheme and
the committee in charge, headed by
Mrs. Francis Jordan Hall, will ask the
girls of the domestic science class of
the high school, of the Y. W. C. A., the
Flower Guild of the Harrisburg Hos
pital. the Sunshine Society, the Junior
Guild of the Children's Aid, the scores
of sewing and embroidery clubs of the
city and surrounding towns to assist.
In fact, a general invitation has been
Issued to everybody to help make the
flowers. Mrs. Hall will eagerly supply
the material. She can be communi
cated with by phone or mall at her
home .1601 North Front street.
The Decorating Committee
Serving with Mrs. Hall on the deco
ration committee, by the way, are Mrs.
Mercer B. Tate, Mrs. Charles E. Co
tions in Harrislnirg. With the pros
pects of high class baseball for the
New York State League, fans hope
that Manager Bitter will succeed in

Now that Yale realizes that Dr. Al
bert Sharpe is at Cornell to stay, the
athletic committee will consider other
candidates. Two more members will
be added to the committee of which
Vance C. McCormick of Harrisburg is
chairman. Every effort is being made
to get a capable man to take charge
of football.
Tliis is the day the National Com
mission expects to wind up peace
contracts. The hitch Is between the
International league ana Federal
Clubs holding franchises on the Bar
row circuit. There are still a num
ber of llarrisburgers hoping that
something definite will be done, in
order that Edward G. Barrow can
lind time to pay bills still due.
The Bankers have dropped out of
the Harrisburg Academy Bowling
league. A new team was ready to
take up the tail-end position. The
