Noonan Wins Second Time;
Gets Sale Postponed
Special to the Telegraph
Wilkes-Barre, Aug. 2.—Peter Noo- i
flan, manager and president of the '
Wilkes-Barre Baseball Club, whom mi
nority stockholders are endeavoring to ,
remove, yesterday caused his oppon- 1
ents another surprise when he secured
an order of court that checked the
sheriff's sale of the ball club sched- i
uled for 2 o'clock.
After losing out in the Federal courts, !
■when he attempted to go into bank
ruptcy. Noonan bided his time until j
yesterday. He asked the court to pre- !
vent the sale, on the claim that fore- |
closure on notes amounting to $3,600:
was prematurely made. Two notes were I
signed by Noonan for $3,G00, the notes !
being payable to minority stockhold- |
ers. The notes in turn were given as
collateral security for the payment of
a bank note which is not due until
September. Noonon contends that there
can be no execution on the notes until
they are due. The court set aside the I
sale and fixed to-day as the time of
argument. Meanwhile Noonan con
tinues to hold his job.

COOK'S BINGLE
BRINGS VICTORY
Islanders Take Game From
Syracuse and Umpire in
Tenth Inning
The fighting spirit of the Harrisburg
team that has brought the. Islanders
up in the race was much In evidence
yesterday. Coming up from behind
Syracuse who had a four run lead,
Harrisburg tied up the race twice, and
won out in the tenth, score 6 to 5.
It was some battle. Hair-raising
stunts every minute. Those Stars, lead
by the veteran Mike O'Neill are fight
ers too. The game was not won until
the winning run was over the plate.
It was a peppery game. Helfrich
started, but the boy had nothing.
After Syracuse had annexed three
runs, he retired and Chief Gunner's
I Mate Parsons went in. He shot them
over all right, and his peculiar delivery
had Syracuse guessing. In the mean
time, Ehmke, the boy picked as the
star pitcher of the Farrell circuit was
heaving them over. He had a record
of straight victories to defend, but
after the pyrotechnic department of
the Islanders started, his defense was
poor.
Had to Fight the Umpire
_ Harrisburg had to fight ten men.
Umpire Mcßrlde's decisions were awav
off at times and always in favor of
either Ehmke or the Syracuse team.
He was not popular. The big crowd
of fans who broke all records for root
ing were factors in the victory. They
rallied to the cause of the locals in
fine style.
Successive hitting gave Syracuse a
start of three runs. The rourth was
a gift from Mcßride who called Riley
safe at home plate without even look
ing how the play was made. The fifth
run was made in the eighth on two
hits and an out from third to first.
Harrisburg got busy in the fourth
with three successive two-base bingles
and one single. It happened after two
were down, and aided by fast work
on bases four runs were scored. In
the ninth the game was tied up when
Harrisburg scored on two singles and
a sacrifice.
Victory in Tenth
Syracuse could do nothing In the
tenth. Wheat, the first man up for
the locals singled to third. Fritz get
ting the ball after an ugly bound. Par
sons placed a dandy sacrifice and
Cook, the boy who is there when need
ed, hit a Texas leaguer, scoring the
winning run. The score:

BLEACHER BITS
Mike O'Neill.
Went away mad.
Just because Harrisburg beat his
team.
It was Harrisburg's game all the
time.
Umpire Mcßride did not seem to be
n favor of the Islanders winning yes
terday's game.
Helfrich could not get started.
Parsons was the first aid to the in
jured boy.
President Farrell has a few umpires
who are killing the New York State
League attendance.
Cockill's crew has won more games
after a big score by opponents than
any other team in the league.
Games like that of yesterday have
no equal in any league.
Umpire Mcßrlde's decision in per
mitting Riley to score in the third
was rank. Riley has not touched home
plate up to the present time.
Madden is a fast man on bases. He
was in a hitting mood yesterday. This
was a surprise to himself.
Manager Mike O'Neill had nothing to
do in left garden. He did not even
have a hit.
Ehmke may be a comer, and his abil
ity to hand up puzzlers cannot be de
nied. However, he got his bump yes
terday.
Riley, clean-up man for Syracuse, was
busy with his willow.
It is a long time since the rooters
were so busy. They are all with the
team.
Hildebrand's sacrifices were timely.
Only one game to-morrow arid
Thursday. There is one postponed
game with Syracuse. It belongs to the
Stars at home.
Evans, second sacker for the Stars, Is
a shiner. He was in the game all
right.
Harry Fritz, the Philadelphia high
school boy who has been on manv cir
cuits, holds down third sack for Syra
cuse.
Martin at short, shot them over to
first in regular howitzer style.
You must hand it to Harry Fritz for
landing berths with teams up In a race.
He plays the game and is u good man
to have around.
Captain Cook had things sizzling.
His hit in the tenth brought the vic
tory.
Layden's only chance came In the
tenth when he stopped Martin's short
fly.
"Brownev" was after a victory. He
did his part.
Harrison's single started the trouble
in the ninth that tied up the game.
Hand It to Downey for the part he
played. He was there with bells.
Elliott was like a two-year-old. He
moved fast in every branch of duty.
Mills is important. He uses his head,
and wields his stick at the right time.
Three doubles in succession gave
Ehmke a headache.
Wheat scored the winning run. He
held on to second base until he knew
Cook's hit was safe and then beat It
home.
Parsons has a few things, too. Ehmke
is not the only pitcher In the league.
It was a great game, the kind that
shows a team's fighting ability, and a
big boost for baseball in Harrisburg.

Stories printed all over the United
States about umpires killing baseball
attendance and games, has the en
dorsement of every fan who attended
yesterday's game. While everybody
believes that an umpire like a baseball
player has his off days, the work of
Mcßrlde yesterday at times appeared
to be deliberate. His decision on Riley
at home plate was the rankest ever
seen. On balls and strikes Ehmke got
everything on and oft corners.
Fans like a scrappy game. There is
a big difference between a fighting
bunch and rowdyism. There is no
need to throw pop bottles at an um
pire or call him names. No ball player
has the right to hit an umpire. How
ever, the umps are too quick to send
a man to the bench and fine him just
because he kicks on a decision. If the
New York State League game is to'be
a success, certain things should be per
mitted. When a player gets real bad
it is time to can him.
The work of Harrisburg in the New
York State League for the past week is
second to Binghamton. The Bingos
won seven and lost one game, scored
37 runs; made 74 hits; 14 errors; left
on bases, 44; and oppoents scored 16
runs. Harrisburg played nine games,
won 6; lost 3; scored 18 runs; 63 hits;
4 errors; left on bases, 59; runs scored
by opponents, 12.
Mike O'Neill has a fast bunch, and
there is no reason why he should not
be up in the race. Syracuse plays the
game. They are a bunch of fighters
just like Harrisburg. Every minute of
the game the players are using their
heads, and they pull off inside baseball
in fine style.
In the Allison Hill League game last
evening, the Galahads and Reading

Special to the Telegraph

tennis scored a triumph yesterday in
the final round of the Longwood
singles, when William M. Johnston, of
San Francisco, defeated Joseph J.
Armstrong, of Philadelphia, in a four
set. match, 6-0, 6-3, 2-6, 6-2. Playing
with all the skill at his,command, the
national champion had no difficulty ia
asserting his supremacy over the
Quaker City contestant.
Armstrong, whose playing In the
present tournament has been a thorn
in the side of the prominent con
tenders, seemed to lose his cunning
when opposing the Californian, and
the element of keen competition was
very much lacking.
Johnston Is Star.
The brilliant moments were supplied
mostly by Johnston and his work on
the court drew the plaudits of the
largest gathering that has witnessed
any play in the tournament.
The Philadelphian could not get his
strokes running smoothly In the first
set and the national champion, who
started by breaking through his op
ponent's service, continued in the win
ning stride until he had taken six
straight games. During this period the
Philadelphian scored only two place
ments.
His back court game, which has
been his asset, did not respond to
his call and he was frequently netted,
with an occasional drive out of the
court.
