SATURDAY EVENING,
DRAFTS AFFECT
FEW STATE STARS
Majors Pick Four From Farrell
Circuit; Fittery Returns to
Philadelphia
Players in the New York State
League were not popular with the
major league scouts. According to
drafts made yesterday at Cincinnati,
most of the drafts were pitchers. It
is the belief that class AA and class A
teams will go after New York Staters..
Detroit landed Dauglierty, a Wilkes-
Barre twirler. Haas, the Barons" loft
fielder, will go to the Chicago Ameri
cans. Gerner, the star pitcher of
Reading, was drafted by Cincinnati.
O'Rouke, shortstop for Utica, was
landed by Cincinnati. Bigler, a Get
tysburg star, was grabbed by St. Louis
Americans.
Paul Fittery, a former Harrisburg
twirler, was picked by the Phillies.
He has been a star southpaw with
Salt Lake City.
Under the rules of drafting the win
ning major league club having tirst
choice has Ave days in which to make
a selection. In case the winning club
does not choose to exercise the draft
the club getting second choice can
make the selection, and so on to the
club having third choice.
American Leads in Drafts
Seventy-four minor league players
were drafted by the major leagues at
the meeting of the National Baseball
Commission and representatives of
every major league club in Cincin
nati yesterday.
Of this number, the American
League obtained forty-seven and the
National twenty-seven. These latter
figures do not signify that the Ameri
can League was proportionately more
lucky in the draw than the Nationals,
but that President Johnson's organi
zation had in a large majority of the
draft.
i That the minor league field has been
Picked over rather thoroughly for
good material through the process of
purchase was indicated by the fact
that in no individual case was there
an exceptionally keen competition, the
majority of the players being drafted
by a single club. The Cleveland club
originally drafted Haas, of Wllkes-
Barre, but waived their draft on him,
and he was obtained by the Chicago
Americans. The same thing hap
pened to McTigue, of Toronto, who
was originally drafted by the New
York Nationals, but went to the Chi
cago Nationals.
The commission finally decided to
leave the world series tickets proposi
tion to Chairman Herrmann. If on
September 21 Chairman Herrmann
believes it would be wise to have the
tickets printed in order to save time,
he was given the power to notify the
management of the three teams who
are then leading in the two races, the
National and American Leagues, that
they were privileged to have the
tickets printed. The draft awards
follow:

Brooklyn Wins Out;
American Race Close
The activities of the well-known
Jupiter Pluvius enabled the Brooklyn
Robins to increase their lead In the
National League pennant race yester
day. The pacemakers managed to win
a saturated contest from Pittsburgh,
while neither the P.hils nor the Bos
tons would work in a struggle with
their respective opponents. As a re
sult the Robins are two full games
ahead of the champions and three
score sheets in the lead of Boston.
Standing of the three rivals this morn
ing:
W. L. P. C.
Brooklyn ... 80 54 .597
Philadelphia. 77 55 .583
Boston ....'. 75 55 .577
The three contenders for premier
honors in the American League won
yesterday and consequently there is
no change in the aspect of the race.
The Boston Red Sox still lead the pro
cession, topping the Detroit Tigers bv
a margin of two points—the fractional
part of a game. The Chicago White
Sox are in third place, half a box score
in the rear of the pacemakers. The
Bengals have played four more games
than Boston and the White Sox three
more than Boston.

Bits From Sportland
According to the report on yester
day's drafts the major league waht
pitchers. Star infielders and outfielders
appear to be a glut on the inaiKci.
Hitters are also needed. This may ex
plain why the New York State League
stars were overlooked. There were few
.300 hitters on the Farrel circuit.
Marysville and Duncannon wind up
the season to-day. D'uring the coming
week Manager Harry Stees will whip
his teem in shape for the series with
Wllllamstown, winners of the Dauphin-
Schuylkill championship.
The Tigers to-day met Harvard for
the Intercollegiate golf title. Prince
ton yesterday defeated Yale and Har
vard won from Cornell. Harvard Is a
favorite in to-day's matches.
The Carlisle Fair is on next week's
program. The list of entries is the
largest in years and many fast horses
are included. G. W. Snyder, of Har
risburg. has entered his hay mares,
Allie B„ and Uneeda Patehen. Both
have been doing good work this sea
son.
The Reservoir Park Tennis Club will
meet Monday night at the Park Com
missioner's office in Calder building.
This afternoon the local players met
Middletown.
Once more comes the announcement
that Reading will remain in the New
\ork State League. Thia was told a
week ago when Dr. Tate left for his
home at Albany.
John Evers will be operated upon for
the removal of a tooth embedded In
his Jaw. It la the belief that his
grouchy disposition has been due to this
annoying molar.
i,.M oß r ewoofl ' champions of the Allison
Hill League with Whltey Winters on
the mound, this afternoon oppose an
all-star team from the Galahad. Stan
ley and Reading teams. The game was
played at Island Tark and attracted a
large crowd.
Football started this afternoon when
the University of California lined up
against the Olympic Athletic Club of
Berkley. Eastern teams will not get
into action for two weeks. Practice
games will be in order next week
The Penbrook Ail-Scholastics, an
aggregation that furnished excellent
football last season Is again in the
field. A reorganization was affected
last night and the squad will get Into
action Tuesday. Coach Fields will have
a bunch of promising youngsters.
Manager T. E. Meckley is anxious to
schedule games with strong teams In
Harrlsburg and vicinity.
ANXOI'SCEMEXT PREMATURE
.u Annu lrf,'3 ,ent was recently made
that E. Miller would act as assistant

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH!
PENN-STATE IS
i HUNTING GUARDS
Head Coach Harlow Loses Big
Star; Large Squad at
Work
State College, Pa., Sept. 16.—Early
season football dope at Penn State
suffered a slump this week when it
was announced that Joe Gill, the big
substitute guard of the last two years
and who was expected to fill Mc-
Dowell's place on the light side of the
center, had been forbidden to play by
Ills parents. Gill was ripe for the var
sity line and his absence, has aggre
vated Heach Coach Harlow's problem
of building up the center of the team.
There seems to be little hope of ob
taining Yeager's release from military
duty on the Mexican border, and
Whitey Thomas has definitely decided
not to attend college this year. To top
off these upsets in his plans, Harlow
announced to-day that Painter, the var
sity center, was having trouble with
his studies, and there is a chance that
he may not wear the Blue and White
this season.
CnnillriateN For Guards
Harlow will pick his guards from the
following men: O'Donnell, Smith.
Kraft. Snelderman, Robinson and
Locke. O'Donnell's Improvement has
been particularly noticeable. The big
westrner reported in excellent shape,
and Harlow attributes O'Donnell's good
showing to his superb physical condi
tion.
To fill up the gap in the line at left
tackle. Harlow believes his three best
men are Crushank. the former Bethle
hem Prep. player and shot-putter,
Tavener, formerly of Delancy School,
and Parrish, the varsity wrestler.
Coach Harlow is dissatisfied with the
punting. Outside of Captain Clark
none of the backs Is booting the pig
skin to suit him. Bortz, Beck, Lind
quist. Hess, Robb, Unger and Jones
are receiving Instruction in kicking
from Whitney, but Harlow says their
work does not compare with that of
Berryman and Manown last season.
Lebanon Valley Squad Is
Fast Rounding Into Shape
Annville, Pa., Sept. 16.—The foot
ball squad at Valley College,
which has now reached forty-three
In number Is fast rounding Into shape.
Two practices were held dally through
out the week. The forenoon workout
was light, consisting of preliminary
training such as falling on the bali,
form blocking and tackling. In the
afternoons Coach Gayer had the men
breaking up plays from last year's
formations, also running down punts
and tackling. He finished up the week
by a light scrimmage In which he tried
out some new plays. On one side he
had a team composed almost entirely
of last year's varsity men and opposed
to them he tried out all the new ma
terial. With the opening of school
nn Monday only one practice will be
held each day which will be mostly In
the form of scrimmage.
IjAST big track meet
Newark, N. J.. Sept. 16.—The final
Amateur Athletic Union track and
field championship event of the season
will be held at Weequahic Park, here,
Ihls afternoon with the all-round
championship. Seven of the leading
all-round stars of the country have
entered the competition, which will
consist of ten separate events, ranging
