team of Philadelphia fell before the
Harrisburg Independents Saturday
night, the locals winning by a score of
<1 to 3S. Dave McConnell played
throughout the game. This star, who

With five straight victories to its
credit the Lebanon High School quin
tet has taken a commanding lead in
the Central Pennsylvania basketball
league that will take heroic work on
the part of the other five teams to
dislodge the "Dutch." Lebanon's two
victories over Tech and Steelton on
the latter floors has added to the lead
ers' advantage. Steelton's loss to
Lebanon Friday night has almost
eliminated Coach Gaffney's squad in
the pennant hunt. While the lower
end boys may be up in the race they
can hardly hope to win.
Tech is in the same boat. While
the Maroons are showing good form,
the fact that they have lost twice at
the Armory, makes their case hope
less. York has good players in Ging
rich and Whitmoyer, but the team is
green, and has still to win a game.
Central's victory over Wiiliamsport at
that place Friday night has boosted
prospects for the Blue and Gray parti
sans. who look to the Central crew to
repeat last year's victories. Central
goes to York next Friday night, and
after this contest, fans will have a
better chance to judge the merits of
the Central team so far as the other
teams in the league are concerned. '

I In addition to the game at York
the other contest to be played in the
league will be Steelton at Reading. It

indicates that 'Lebanon will have a

i they propose giving in the Arcade
Theater about the middle of February.
Balance Shows $23,000
Excess in County Treasure
As a result of economical measures
on the part of county officials, and a
slight delay in some of the improve-)
ment programs planned a balance of
$23,39$ In excess of the total for 1913
is in the hands of County Treasurer
Mark Mumma, according to the an
nual report of County Controller
i Henry W. Gougli.
The treasury balance for 1915 was
$138,277.54; for 1916. 1161,676.05.
Although much of the excess will
in all probability be needed to defray
, additional expenses which must be
' provided for in the annual budget of
I the County Commissioners, arrange
ments will be made to build additional
bridges in various parts of the coun
ty. No increase in the present tax
rate of 4 mills is expected.
Plans are being made to build a
bridge at Lyonsville, to cost about
$30,000 and other smaller bridges, one'
on the road between Millersburg and 1
Killlnger. Work on one across the;
Paxton creek in Susquehanna town
ship will be completed.
Additional expenditures which
I probably will be included in the I
| budget this year for the county com
missioners. are an increase of $4,000
• for the maintenance of prisoners in 1
\ Eastern penitentiary; $6,000 for the!
| proposed election of a successor to'
City Commissioner Harry F. Bow
man: SIO,OOO in the county poor di-,
I rectors' budget, and $3,000 for prison;
j insneetion.
A feature of the report is the sav-!
ling of more than $2,000 by the re-!
| demption of bonds of the sinking
fund. Bonds of the issue of 1901 '
'valued at $20,000 were redeemed for
, $13,000. and one SI,OOO bond of 1902'
was redeemed for $930. saving the
county $2,070.
t Total resources are $1,326,385.47; i
bonded debt, $421,000.00 and surplus ,
j $905,385.47. \
