ROMANS WIN ACADEMY MEET GOOD RECORDS FOR INDOORS Fourth Annual Event Is Big Success; New Athletes Come to Front in Dashes and Other Events In one of the most exciting and ef- Robert. Stanton. Greek; second, How flciently handled indoor track meets ard Eldridpe, Roman; third, Harry which the Harrisburg Academy stu- B Bert> I{oman , Height, 4 feet, 10 dents have staged, the Romans, with j their togas tucked about their bolts, mounted their chariots and nosed out the noble Greeks at the Chestnut Street Auditorium last night. A record crowd of over 1,000 people attended. Great joy pervaded the camp of the Academy boys, and their athletic teams will be assured or hearty tinancial sup port for some time to come as a result of the enthusiastic backing of the par ents and friends of the athletes and the co-operation of the program advertis ers. The Romans were outclassed in the Jumps, but were strong in the sprints and the special relay races. The fea ture of the evening, a seven-minute wrestling bout between Captain "Kddie" Roth of the Greeks and Cap tain Kreider of the Romans, was so exciting that a man in the audience fainted from the strain. The decision was handed to Roth on points. All-aruuud Champion John R. Hart won the gold medal for all-around champion, scoring seven points in the three championship events. He took second in the 35-yard dash and the pole vault and third in the high jump. Young "Billy" Benne thum was one of the most popular contenders for honors in the various events, and tied for first place with Ambler in the spring broad jump for lirst and second forms at the height of six feet one inch. Both these athletes will receive silver medals. In the special events, the honors were about evenly divided. The Ro mans won the tug of war for first and second forms, the pass back, and the spectacular Carrying of the Colors. The Greeks, however, took the tug of war in the lower school with a mighty pull ten seconds after the gun was fired. Cox and MacDougall were the combin ation that won the elephant race for the Greeks, each receiving a special prize. Points Scored Counting five points for the race. Carrying the Colors, the Romans won the meet by the score of 62 to 57. This victory gives the Romans six points towards the annual cup. One of the most Interesting events of the evening was the pole vault, which brought out some real talent that if properly handled ought to de velop. But little Russ Glancv in the spring broad jump had the sympathies of the crowd entirely with him every time he jumped. This diminutive ath lete literally threw himself over the rope irrespective of whether he landed on his feet or his head and the fact that he didn't win first place didn't make any difference. The honors which he heaped upon himself were plenty without that. The score and summary: IjJst of Winners Event No. I.—Dumb bell drill.

Fagan, once more attacked the sub penas issued by United States Attor ney Humes in the Federal investiga- ' tion of brewery contributions to po- > litical campaigns. The subpenas attacked were those j demanding records of the Pittsburgh and Independent Brewing Companies, I the first to be subpenaed in the in- j quir.v, and Judge Thomson last night j decided against the. petitioners and | upheld' the government. The records, mostly check vouchers, 1 must now be produced, despite the | fact that Attorney Keeper disclosed to i the court a sensational list of the In dependent Brewing Company's eontri ! buttons to the brewery associations. Following are the admitted contribu tions and dates for two of the associa tions: 1»12 February 14—United States Brew ers' Association, New York, $2,000.

Other Contributions Made Contributions also were made to: the Brewers' Association of Western Pennsylvania and ttie Westmoreland County Brewers' Association, running from SIOO to $1,200. The Indepen ! dent paid out to ail brewery associa tions $20,225.66 in 1912, $24,971.12 in | 1913 and $28,298.42 in 1915. April 27, 1914, Just before the State primaries, this one brewing company , paid more than $1,200 to a brewery i association of one county, the West moreland County Association. t The list was produced as a copy of ■ one obtained by Special Agent David 1 S. Frawley, of the Department, of Jus l tice, whose examinations of brewing ! company books precipitated the pres ent grand Jury probe. The govern ment, United States Attorney Humes j declared, did not intend to make the list public yet, outside the grand Jury I rooms. The petition of the brewing com ! panies, denied by Judge Thomson i after arguments yesterday served, however, to force the grand Jury to mark time and in addition gave the brewers two and a half more days] ! of grace, as the grand Jury last night - was dismissed until Monday at 1:30, | Humes fought hard for a decision on i the petition in time to get the books last night, but failed. United States Marshal Joseph How ley yesterday indicated that unless J. P. Mulvihiil, State leader of the liquor forces, voluntarily returns to the jurisdiction of the court shortly, a deputy marshal will be sent in search of him, armed with a bench warrant for his arrest, instead of a subpena. This action is contemplated because of reports that Mulvihiil is considering fleeing to Jamaica. Women Deny Contributions It was reported that the books of some of the brewers showed substan tial contributions to the antisuffrage cause. Mrs. E. N. Ohl, treasurer of the local Antisuffrage Association, took exceptions to these reports, and said: "The liquor interests did not con tribute one cent to our cause. Our books are open for inspection. All our money came from the members."' Mrs. Eliza Armstrong, one of the antauffrage leaders, said: "We are perfectly willing to open our books for inspection, but we ask that the suffragists do the same. We have as much right to know who their ! contributors were as they have to j know from whom we received con | tributions." West Shore Companies to Organize Firemen's Union | West Fairview.
