    LOCAL TEAMS SHOW FAST PACE
HARRISBURG GOLF STARS WHO KEEP BUSY ON LINKS
I --V; ~ - . .yr s %-/
Harrisburg has an army of golf enthusiasts. On the big list are a number of stars, and unusual interest is
nanifested in all local matches and tournaments. On Reservoir Park,- Colo nlal Club and Country Club links,
players are out daily. This sport is increasing in popularity. Three pro minent local golfers are pictured
above. They are, reading from left to right, Stewart McEwan, profession al; C. H. Sauers, who has figured in
local matches, and C. E. Zimmerman, city champion.
SCHOOL TEAMS
SHOW FAST FACE
Central, Tech, Academy and
Steelton Winners; Results
of College Games
Tech, Steelton, flic Academy and
Central —the four scholastic elevens j
thut will represent llarrisburg on the t
football gridiron this Fall—made a'
clean sweep of their games played on I
Saturday and came off victorious.
While the best Central could do was j
to tie the Johnstown High school!
team, the result is considered a vic
tory for the local eleven in view of j
the fact that the contest was played |
in thp Flood City.
Tech had an auspicious opening, 1
winning in easy fashion from Lebanon
High. While the game was easily |
won, the one fact brought out by the
result was that many of the regulars l
will have to hustle to hold down their
jobs.
Coach Taggart seems to have once
more developed a winner down in
"Schwabtown" as Saturday's result
appears. The Blue and White totalled j
53 points against the Dickinson Col- [
lege Freshmen, and judging from the j
line-up Steelton will be a dangerous j
contender for local honors.
Coach Schlichter seems on a fair
road to repeat the triumphs of last
year up at the Academy. Captain
Phillips and his colleagues won from
Lykens High school in easy fashion on
the local field, 43 to 0. With the ad
dition of Britsch at quarter the team
looks strong.
Central kept its slate clean by
playing a scoreless game at Johns
town. It was more than the most
arden rooters had hoped for. The
team will have another hard contest
this week when it will travel to
Baltimore to play the Baltimore City
College eleven. Last season the team |
led by Captain Rote easily won from j
the Monumental City boys on the.
Island Field. Tech will meet another .
strong opponent in Easton on the
Island. In the game played at Eaaton i
last year the local squad was defeated I
by two touchdowns.
In the college world the big teams
continued to try out players in prep
aration for the big games that will fol
low. Most of the results were as anti
cipated. State College cleaned up for
Bueknell in a 50 to 7 contest that
marked the resumption of gridiron
sports after several years' cessation.
Thrae local lads stood out prominently
In the result. Beck took more fame
at the Center county institution by
taking a kickoff and running 90 yards
through the entire Lewisburg team
for a touchdown. He crossed the goal
lines twice before being relieved by
Coach Harlow. Captain Clark also
scored twice.
For George CockiU's Bueknell team
Lawrenca playing at end, scooped up
a fumble and scooted 86 yards for the
only score made by the eleven. Law
rence learned his rudiments while a
member of the Steelton High school
team several years ago.
GREAT GAME AT AUDITORIUM
The Ronier electric board at Chest
nut Street Auditorium won much
praise Saturday. Manager George
Mcllhenny had a big crowd to see tlte
opening game in the world's seriesi
He had good men on the side lines
and back of the bat. Every play was
given correctly. So much so that fans
cheered the players, and when hits
were made they yelled like Coman
che Indians. Games will be played
daily until the series ends. Fans are
permitted to sinoke and it is just like
being at a real game.
Ruth and Coombs Probable
Pitching Choices For Today
Probable pitching selections for
to-day are Ruth (left-hander),

MONDAY EVENING,
WELLY'S CORNER
Stengel's wild throw was costly on
Saturday. These things happen when
two teams are on edge. In consider
ing future results one thing must not
be overlooked, Brooklyn has a habit
of getting busy in one inning.
Much gratification came with
Saturday's scholastic football results.
Central gave Johnstown the hardest
battle in the history of that school. It
is further evidence that Coaches Smith
and Harris are doing wonderful work
notwithstanding the obstacles they
have encountered. ,Tech came to the
front with a big surprise in the open
ing game, and the result af the Har
risburg Academy game shows that
Coach Schlichter is maKlng good.
Steelton High, which was Jpoked upon
as a weak team this year is anything
but that and must be considered.
