LOCAL VICTORY
Elmira Takes Count From
Harrisburg in Sensational
Battle; Fast Fielding
Specie.l to the Telegraph
Elmira, N. Y., July 7. Bingles
to the right of them, bingles to the
left of them, volleyed and thundered
here yesterday. As a result of the
timely willow wields, Elmira's New
York State League aggregation bowed
their knees to Harrisburg. The score
6 to 3 was further evidence that the
tallenders are traveling a pace that
miiet not be overlooked.
Cockill's crew got busy in the third
and Iced the game. Burns held the
enemy from the firing line for seven
Innings when General Walter Blair
sent Huenkie to the mound. It was a
v/ise move as the Colonels could do
nothing with their big sticks.
Harrisburg outbatted and outplayed
their opponents at every stage. The
work of Harrisburg's infield was sen
sational. Wheat, Cook and Layden
etnrred at the bat. The score:

Zimmerman Wins Match
in Local Golf Contest
In one of the greatest golf matches
played on Reservoir's links C. E. Zim
merman defeated Tommy Devlne,
score 37 to 36.
After defeating Perry, Devlne was
looked upon as an easy winner but
"Zlmmie" played a great game, al
though being down during the whole
match, he stuck to his guns to the fin
ish and finally won on the last green.
The first round in particular was a
exhibition of golf as the details will
show:
Devlne 5 3 3 4 4 4 4 5 4—36
Zimmerman ..63344544 4—37
This leaves "Zimmie" and H. C. Mil
ler to fight It out in the semi-final, the
winner to meet Eddie Longenecker in
the final.
According to a general relief the
final ought to be played between Zim
merman and Longenecker. However
predictions have been upset so often in
this tournament. Tt is the opinion of
many that a new champion is coming.

'V'OU can buy a suit of Hart Schaffner & Marx clothes here for S2O; if you've

The clothes will prove it; such quality of fabrics, such staunch, durable tai

the players. Some of the local play
ers have been omitted. Brown ap

there are others coming around.
"Billy" Mehring is working up a
great program which he will spring
early next week. He hopes to give
Harrisburg a great open-air show.
Referring to the release of Bolissky
the Chambersburg opinion says:
"Boilnsky, who came here from the
defunct Harrisburg team and played
second base, was given his release, not
because Boly did not have ability, but
because we had too many players and
our need is for a short stop, not a
second baseman. Fuhrey can play
short, but Boly could not, so Mike
was kept. And you notice Mike is
playing some."
