Since Manager Cocklll assumed cnarge the Harrisburg team has mace a record that would mean a first division posi tion, had he and Walter Blair been in I charge early in the season. "Harrisburg has the best baseball. team in its history," said President I Judge George Kunkel yesterday. The Honorable Judge is a daily attendant at games. He is authority on base- ! ball, and a strong booster ror the Islanders. Entries for the City Tennis Tourna ment must be in not later than Thurs day, July 27. This announcement was made again last night by the com-! mittee in charge of arrangements. Indications are that there will be sev eral hundred contestants. All of last 1 season's stars have entered and a number of newcomers promise to be ! contenders for honors this season. Is'ow that the Mathewson-Herzog deal is completed, baseball fans will resume activity in figuring out the pennant winner for this season. While i Brooklyn is leading the race, tne New York Giants and Phillies are still i looked upon ELS strong contenders. | The recent changes in stars may [ bring about some changes, is the be- i lief. Lykens had a record game yester day. It was played between the Mer chants and Manufacture™ and was witnessed by 1,400 persons. The Merchants won, score 24 to is. A total of 57 hits were made in tne game. Home runs were made with three men j on bases. Neither side is credited j with an error. Strike out features! were scarce.

To-mor row and next week, games which will have important bearings on the final results will be played in Dauphin- Perry League. The most important battle of to-jnorrow will be the Marys ville-Halifax game. Halifax was in second place most of the season and was within a half game of first place two weeks ago. Manager Koppenhaver will use Biever and Rhoads as his battery and the Marysville choices will be "Old Relialjle" Wertz avid Kurzenknabe. Newport will play at Millersburg. Manager Sharon will probably use Groninger In the box and Ed. Philips, the Susquehanna University receiver, back of the bat. The Millersburg choices will be Franke and Buffing ton. The Dauphin team, which now holds second place, will meet the Duncannon team at home in a double header. After the game Dauphin will hold a festival and have arrang, ed a great program. i away from yelling "take him out" I when a pitcher goes bad. Few pitch ! ers can repeat the victory trick in every game. There are reasons. A pitcher may go in one day and get knocked out of the box early. The : next day he comes back and wins the i game. Managers know this and for ( this reason keep on hand enough I pitchers to supply the demand. Dessau of Elmira is an examplet He • was sent to the bench in tne Harris burg game on Wednesday. Yesterday he held Albany to one hit. The locals gained a few posits yes terday, winning the game from Bing hamton. Albany fell down by a score of 3 to 0, and this helped a whole lot. Jitneys are now running to the base ball grounds and local supporters do not have to walk. The crowd yester day. while an improvement over that of the day previous was not up to re -1 qutrements. Scranton handed Utica a defeat yes terday, score 3 to 1. Utica bad costly errors. Lew Ritter, the catcher, has been released by Utica and was in Harrisburg yesterday. Murphy came back and the old reliable was not wanted. Ritter is a good man and should not be overlooked. Syracuse trimmed Wilkes-Barre yesterday, score 4 to 3. It was a pitchers' battle between Ehmke and Brown, each having five hits. The game was featured with fast fielding. The Planing Mill team won an other victory In the Lucknow League series yesterday, defeating the Fed erals, score 6 to 0. Veteran Finifrock shut his opponents out without a hit. The Galahads were Allison Hill League visitors last night taking the game from Reading, score 5 to 2. Les cure's hitting was a feature. Hoffman pitched a good game. I Federal Good Roads Bill Will Mean Much to United States | Pennsylvania farmers, autoists and | other good roads enthusiasts who are interested especially in the proposed ! construction of the William Penn I highway, consider the action of Presi dent Wilson in signing the new Fed | eral good roads bill, of special signi j ticance in view of the bearing the building the government roads will have on the State arteries of travel, j The first of the great highways nec | essary for military purposes will of 1 course be the road which parallels the Rio Grande. In commenting upon the bill and its possibilities Chairman George C. Diehl of the American Au j tomobile association, said: j" "It is interesting to note that the next most important highways from a military viewpoint are those along the Atlantic and Pacific seaboards. Long stretches of these roads have already been improved and, from the funds available from the first and second ap j propriations, the connecting gaps can | be completed so that within a period lof two or three years complete road (arteries along the Atlantic and Pacific I coasts and the Mexican frontier can be constructed." Only the highway along the north j ern boundary of the United States j need then be constructed to make a | complete circle of highways around | the margin of the country, he pointed | out. "This marginal highway can be I supplemented by the three highways j east and west and eight or nine high j ways north and south within the limit of the amount stated in the Federal aid good roads bills and what the i States will contribute. This system of i Federal roads, in connection with what | the various States are doing, within a j period of six or seven years will make for a most comprehensive internal de | velopment of the country, and the i highways will serve military, commer j cial and general travel purposes." Wilson's Administration Lauded by Postmasters By Associated Press Washington, July 21. Resolutions i commending the National Administra ! tion for efficiency and economy in postal management, recommending ! specific reforms and praising Presi i dent Wilson for maintaining tho United States in peace were presented I to the National Association of Presi ! denti&l Postmasters at its final session to-day. Under the administration of Post master Genera) Burleson, the resolu tions recited the present system by which each postmaster "is the direct ing force of his office and his duties are not delegated to subordinate of ficials," has been introduced. The postmaster general and his assistants were commended for reforms. Referring to the foreign policy of President a resolution said: "Under the fearless humane leader ship of President Woodrow Wilson every impending crisis has been met with honorable valor and most delib erate wisdom, and peace and prosper ity prevail within our country." Wish for continuance for the Presi dent's policy was conveyed in the reso lution which declared that "postmast ers, occupying positions that place them in close touch with the home life of our nation, should and do know the sentiments of our people and for them can speak."
