MANAGER COCKILL MAY APPEAL TO PRESIDENT TENER---DAUPHIN-PERRY GAMES:
MAY APPEAL TO
NATIONAL HEAD
Manager George Cockill Re
fuses to Agree to Special
v Guarantee
On the answer by President J. H.
Farrell to-day, as to whether he will
abide by the agreement between Lew
Wachter and Manager George Cockill,
will depend an appeal to President
John K. Tener of the National League.
Instead of going to Troy to-morrow
for a conference with President Far
rell, Manager Cockill may go to New
York.
That the action of the New York
State leader is a holdup pure and
simple, is the general belief here.
This opinion was strengthened last
night when Manager Cockill, in a
conversation over the telephone, said
that Harrisburg could get the Troy
team, providing an agreement was
made to pay 1100 guarantee for every
game.
Rules
The league rules call for a guaran
tee of $76 rain or shine. With Har
risburg on the circuit the Jumps would
not be any greater than at present.
On the other hand there would be. a
saving in time of the trips. Why-
President Farrell is insisting on a
special guarantee agreement is not ex
plained.
President Farrell was told by wire
last night that Harrisburg would
abide by the league rules, and make
no special arrangement. It is the be
lief that club owners favor Harrisburg
and that after It is understood that
Manager Cockill will not stand for a
holdup, the transfer will be made.

Eliminate State Tennis Star
in Pennsylvania Contest
Sferial to the Telegraph
Philadelphia, Pa.. June 16. J. J.
Armstrong the 1915 title-holder and
Wallace F. Johnson, a former cham
pion. were both eliminated from the
annual tournament for the tennis
championship of Pennsylvania at the
Merion Cricket Club, Haverford yes
terday afternoon, in what was un
doubtedly the greatest display of fast
and sensational lawn tennis ever seen
in this vicinity.
W. T. Tilden, 2d., the holder of the
city and district title, put Armstrong
out of the running in a match that
fairly scintillated from beginning to
end and kept the big gallery on edge
throughout. The final score was 6-3,
8-6.
Rowland Evans, Jr., of the Merion
Cricket Club, pulled the unexpected
by defeating Wallace Johnson in
straight sets, also, by the score of
6-4, 7-5. Evans outplayed his veteran
opponent, was steadier and showed
better generalship.

BIG FELLOWS TO
MAKE HARD FIGHT
Dillon and Moran Each Confi
dent of Victory in Next
Week's Battle
Special to the Telegraph
New York, June 16. Not much
worried by the State Athletic Com
mission's ruling that all the regula
| tions have not been complied with,
the managers of the Dillon-Moran
fight, which is to be staged at Wash
, ington Park, June 29, sent out state
ments from both men to-day. Dillon's
statement, said he would knock
Moran out and that the fight would be
a slugging match because he Intended
making it so.
Moran, when he heard of this at
Saratoga, issued a counter statement,
"Dillon's plan meets with my ap
proval," he said. "It will be a slug
ging match, and I am working with
little fellows for this bout. I will not
have to hit at the clouds as I did with
Willard. Dillon will be right in front
of me and my trusty 'Mary Ann' will
connect with his jaw, which means
curtains and dreamland for the alleged
'man-killer' and 'rib-crusher.' I only
hope that Dillon stands and fights."
The warning from the Boxing Com
mission called attention to the fact
that the club must file a copy of all
contracts, and that if there are any
guarantees these must be posted with
surety.
BEGINNERS SHOOT TO-MORROW
The West Fairview Sportsmens' As

Your Blood Pressure Tells
Much With This Instrument
If for anv reason the blood pressure
is raised, the blood circulates more
freely through the brain as well as
through the other parts of the body,
giving a feeling of buoyancy and con
fidence. says the June Popular Science
Monthly. The man who is working at
a terrific rate, however, must have a
high bloodi pressure, but if continued
above a safe normal point,' it will re
sult in the "burning up" of his vital
forces, resulting in many organic as
well as nervous disorders.
High blood pressure does not al
ways mean one and the same unalter-|
able thing. It may be a sign that the 1
arteries have stiffened to such an ex
tent that the heart is taxed to pump
the necessary volume of blood through
the arteries and with sufficient speed, i
It may mean an improper condition,
of the blood itself—viscosity—the old
fashioned "thick blood" come to life
again as a reputable scientific fact. |
It may mean that the heart has be
come too big for its job, as when an I
"athlete's heart," trained to push a
big stream of blood, keeps on trying
to do so when the demands of office
work do not require it. It may also
result from excessive pumping of the
heart due to abnormal mental stimu
lation in the form of worry, or con
tinuous mental or nervous strain.
A device for measuring blood pres
sure, an ingenious instrument called a
"manometer," has recently been per
fected. The instrument records the
pressure of the blood on a diaphragm
dial very similar to a steam-gage diai.
The scale is divided into millimeters.
The apparatus, which is the inven
' tlon of Dr. Thoma Rogers of Roches
: ter, New York, is one of the most im- \
portant surgical instruments devised |
in years, ranking with the pulmotor, |
stethoscope, and clinical thermom- i
eter. Its operation is comparatively!
simple, but its reading requires an!
i expert. The best results are obtained j
when a stethoscope is used in con-:
nection with it.
An air-bag is first strapped on the!
subject's arm over the main artery,;
and is inflated with a bulb attached! l
jto v it. The operator then adjusts a
stethoscope to his ears and finds the j
J pulse. The throbbing of the pulse
! against the air-bag is communicated!
'through a rubber tube to the case j
(containing the diaphragms upon
| which a vibration is set up. These vl- \
\ brations, which are synchronous with !
those of the puls£, are translated into
millimeters by the delicate needle of
i the dial.

England. Their patriotism is so
strong that they do not hesitate to
disfigure themselves for the sake of

DAUPHIN-PERRY
LEAGUE BATTLES
Newport and Marysville Tie
For First Place; New
Players in Line-up
Marysville, Pa., June 16. During
j the past few weeks, Dauphin-Perry
League teams have been strengthened.
Good baseball can be counted on for
the remainder of the season. Some
important battles are listed for to
i morrow when Millersburg will play
Marysville; Dauphin at Newport and
• Halifax at Duncannon.
| At Duncannon, a close game Is ex
j pected when Halifax and Duncannon
I line up. Halifax has been working
| smoothly during the past few weeks,
! and can be counted on for some trou
ble. Duncannon has signed up a
number of new players, some of whom
will be eligible for to-morrow's game,
i However, the team will be weakened
by the loss of Jones, the star third
sacker, who has been forced to quit
the game because of poor eyesight.
Important Game
! At Newoprt, a hot game is predict
ed. Newport Is tie for first place.
Manager Sharon will probably use
Gronlnger or Wertz in the box and
will likely send back of the bat Ed.
Moore, of New Bloomfield, who
starred on the Penn State nine during
this season and caught for Chambers
burg In the Blue Ridge League lost
year.
i Dauphin will do all possible to
! check them. Dauphin has been fol
lowed by a jinx thus far, but expects
| to break away to-morrow.
At Marysville. the third important
game will be played. Marysville is
now tied for first place, and must win
(o-morrow's game to retain that
: position. Millersburg has been
strengthened.
Submarines Have "Ears";
Locate Boats by Sound
Although the submarine is blind af
ter it dives it ran be made to hear with
the aid of microphones, or electrical
ears. Edward I*. Chajidler, an inven
tor who has made a close study of sub
marine problems, has worked out a
method of utilizing microphones
whereby a submerged craft may di
rect its course accurately toward a
hostile ship. He gives an interesting
explanation of this method in the
Popular Science Monthly for June.
"In the modern telephone," says
Mr. Chandler, "the transmitter is es
sentially a microphone, the presence
of the sound waves being communicat
ed to the conductors by means of a
diaphragm. The submarine equipped
for battle under, the sea is provided
with microphones on its port and star
board bows. Telephone ear-pieces
enable the submarine commander to
listen to the sounds gathered by the
microphones. If the submarine is
not pointed head on toward the ship
to be destroyed the microphone on the
off side will hear less than the other,
and the difference in the volume of
sound received by the two microphone
detectors will be noted at once in the
telephone receivers. The commander
changes his course until he hearS
equally well with both ear-pieces.
"While it is perfectly feasible to di
rect a submarine by telephone it is
much more effective to convert the
m'crophone vibrations into visual sig
nals. As a result the commander of a
submarine has only to watch a finger
move over a dial in order to know
what course he should steer. In a
sense i.e sees the sound which the
microphone detectors hear.
"While a visual steering indicator
is primarily depended upon to guide
the submarine on its deadly errand,
telephones are connected with
the microphones, to be used when the
occasion arises. With their aid the
commander can distinguish one un
derwater sound from another and In
terpret it correctly. A tramp steamer
can be microphonically distinguished
from a Mauretania, a torpedoboat
from, a superdreadnaught, and above
all a subsurface craft from a sur
face craft. Thus the character of an
unseen ship miles away can be ascer
tained.
"But apart from listening to passing
ships, the telephones will he required
to receive messages from an admiral :
on a battleship five miles away. Both i
warships and merchantmen are equip- I
ped with submarine signaling devices '
—devices which send forth either bell
sounds or rhythmic vibrations. It is
easy to see how useful they can be
made to telegraph orders to a sub- )
marine under water five miles or:
more away."
Baltimore Girl Wins in
Wilmington Tennis Match
Wilmington, Del., June 16. Miss
Susanne V. White, of Baltimore, won
her way to the final round of the I
women's Delaware State tennis cham
pionship hy defeating Miss Marga
retta D. Myers, Merlon, at the Wil
mington Country Club here yesterday,
fi-8, 11-9, 6-4.
Miss White's victory over Miss
Myers was the result of a remarkable
ability to maintain a terrific pace
throughout sets that ran to extra
games. So evenly matched were the
players that it soon became a test of
endurance.
JUNE 16. 1916.
WELLY'S kCORNER
The Dauphin-Perry League Is'
unique In its make-up. Two Reformed
ministers are included in the list of
players. One is the Rev. M. G. Hart
n-.an of Marysville and Duncannon,!
and the other is the Rev. F. C. Test
of Halifax. Both were former catch
ers on Franklin - Marshall College
teams.
Inquiries are on the increase re
garding the fight program for July 4.
under the direction of the Empire
Athletic Association. As has been
slated, the matchmaker Robert Gillett
promises to get men who are title
aipirants. He will require each boxer
to post a forfeit. The referee will be
instructed to stop any bout that Is
not on the level.
One particular aim of the Empire
Athletic Association, it is said, will be
to put the boxing game on a higher
plane in Harrisburg. Back of this ef- 1
fort will be a desire to make the sport
popular and to prove that a Slate
Roxing Commission will be a great
help to the game. Another effort will
be to have the boys who give exhibi
tions evenly matched.
N'ot until Manager George Cockill
throws up the sponge need the base
ball fans In Harrisburg worry. The
Pack Mules Are Used
in Mountain War Zone
Headquarters of the Italian Army,
May ... — (Correspondence of The
Associated Press) —The black line of
loaded pack mules, each led by an
Alpine soldier, is one of the strangest
sights to be met in the mountain war
zone. On busy days this line may
sometimes be seen winding its way
from a valley five miles distant up the
mountain passes to peaks ten thou
sand feet high.
The mule is at once the glory and
the backbone of the mountain trans- I
portation system of the Italian army.
It is particularly useful because it is 1
unafraid. Itself bred in the moun- 1
tains, often growing under the very;
noses of volcanoes and used to graz
ing while earthquakes threaten, at
the front it hardly pricks its ears at
artillery noises.
It is estimated that upwards of 250,-
000 mules are in service in the war
zone. The most of them come from
the Abruzzi mountains n the central
part of Italy, but they have been re-i
quisitioned from every part of the
kingdom, even from Sicily and Sar
dlna, together with their two ; wheeled
carts painted with scenes of' provin
cial history.
To this mule in the early part of the
war Italy hitched much of her haul
ing and carrying and to-day, with
plenty of fine roads and new bridges
In the war zone, the mule still keeps
pace with the automobile, the narrow
gauge railway and the airline rail- [
ways of the high mountains.
This little mule, eleven to thirteen ,
hands high, often hardly as large as

President John H. Farreil holds the
situation in his hands at present. As
I has been stated, like his friend, Ed
;ward G. Barrow, of the International
; 1-eague, he must be consulted in every
thing:. Lew Wachter did not do this
anil now it is proposed to make Har
rihburg pay. If Lew Wachter had
the right to sell his team George
Oockill is now the owner and is under
agreement to make certain payments.

President Farreil should be satisfied.
Lccal baseball fans who know

for carrying up the mountains every

over the mountains, they promise to
remember the mule that helped on
the job.
