DOWNEY HERO IN YESTERDAY'S GAME-TENNIS TOURNAMENT SCORES DOWNEY BIG STAR; SYRACUSE LOSES Hits Triple and Scores Winning Run; Starts Fast Double- Plav; Saves Game WALTER BLAIR Downey with his triple brought the run that won yesterday's game from Syracuse, score 2 to 1. Later on in the ninth inning when the Stars started trouble and had a chance to tie up the game, this same boy Downey, stopped a terrific grounder from Riley's bat. caught the runner going to third and doubled up Riley on his way to first. These two features made Downey the big boy yesterday. It was an other of those sensational fielding games. The Islanders were fighting every minute of the game. Likewise Syracuse. There was one particular reason why Mike O'Neill's bunch could not get a lead. Huenke pitched. It had to be a clean wallop, for field ers snatched everything, and a few things that looked impossible. Taylor Had Puzzlers Taylor pitched for Syracuse. He was not so slow, for he had the num bers of Harrisburg's willow wielders at times. It was hits in succession that counted for Walter Blair's folks. There were four innings in which Huenke was hit safely and the same number was credited to Taylor. It required extraordinary fielding by both teams to shut off the scoring. Harrisburg opened up with a fun. Cook was passed but was caught at second, when Layden hit a slow one to Evans. Brown singled and Layden beat it to third. Brown stole second. Harrison sent up a sacrifice fly to right. Layden scoring. In the fourth inning Syracuse tied! up the game. Quinn reached second on a bad throw by Huenke. O'Neill singled to right, scoring the run. In the sixth Brown and Harrison were easv outs. Downey the third man up hit to right field for three bags. Elliott after fouling a dozen strikes sent a clean safety to left, scoring Downey and victory. The score: Syracuse— AB. R. H. O. A. E.

Follow V fi Your \ Nose ) —lt Knows Ever watch an expert tobacco man judge tobacco? If you have, you saw him rub it briskly between the palms of his hands till the friction brought out the aroma then smell it. That's the supreme test That shows what a tobacco really is. Try it yourself try it on TUXEDO then on other tobaccos. Your judgment as to what will please you is as good as any expert's. Just do as he does —"follow your nose." TUXEDO is the one tobacco that asks you to make this test because TUXEDO is the one tobacco that can meet it Your nose will know the difference—instantly—between TUXEDO and all the others. None of the others has either the volume or the sweetness of aroma that proves superior and supreme flavor, mildness and satisfaction in the pipe. • Make the test with as many tobaccos as you choose —and fol low your nose. It will lead you straight to TUXEDO. The Perfect Tobacco for Pipe and Cigarette 10c Tins THfe AMERICAN TOBACCO COMPANY 5c Bags HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH WELLYS I? CORNER Harrisburg is now a half game back lof Albany. A victory to-day will give : the Islanders a chance to move up still higher. Of course. Albany will have to lose. If the change does not come to-day it will be recorded later. The Syracuse stars, considered the strongest team in the New York State League, ends the series with Harris burg to-day. Mike O'Neill is anxious jto land at least one victory and may give Ehmke another chance this after noon. To-morrow and Saturday : Wilkes-Barre will play double-headers. Scranton comes Monday for a three : day stay. There is no denying the fact that | alter Blair is a born leader. He is responsible for the team's great work. Daily sessions are held at the club house and after games, during which outside and inside baseball is dis -1 eussed. Problems are worked out. On the field Walter Blair is cool and his ! head work has brought the answer in many games. Another thing that must not be overlooked is that he has the players with him. I Owners George Cockill and Walter t Blair hope to see the team out of the I cellar by Monday.
