New Boxing Bill Calls For
Some Changes in Commission
Albany, N. Y„ Feb. 7.—A bill which
would put the boxing commission back
oi] the basis under which it operated
before Fred Wenck and his conferees
were appointed has been introduced
by Senator John, J. Dunnigan, of the
Bronx, a Democrat.
Dunnigan's bill proposes to abolish
the present commission and create a
new one. also of three members, to
serve without compensation. The sum
of $5,000 is provided for all expenses
of such a commission. At present the
commissioners each receive $3,000 a
year, and the secretary gets a similar
stipend.
The Dunnigan hill is similar to the
original Frawley bill, which became a
law and was amended by the Malone
act, under which the present commis
sion is operating. Under the original
Frawley law the commissioners served
without pay and $5,000 a year was
provided for the salary of a secretary,
office rent and other expenses.
' The Legislature is thoroughly op
posed to Governor Whitman s propo
sition to repeal the boxing law and to
4 enact no substitute. It is recognized
that the bad administration of the
duties of the commission has put the
sport into disfavor. Under a commis
sion of reputable men who would be
willing to dserve without pay the legis
lative friends of boxing feel that the
sport will be rehabilitated.
TAMAQIA MAY GET RERTH
Hazleton, Pa., Feb. 7.—lt is probable
that Tamaqua will take the place of
Freeland in the Pennsylvania State
Basketball League. Freeland is booked
to drop out because of the poor show
ing of its team and the discouraging at
tendance. Tamaqua was in the circuit
three years ago, but was considered
too much out of the way for the Lu
zerne and I*ackawanna county teams
¥ and was dropped. Tho town has a fast
Ave and a large hall for games, and it
is believed that league ball will be
a paying proposition there.

Mitzi, in "Pom-Pom," coming to the
Orpheum Theater on Saturday, mati
nee and evening, Febru-
Mitsl in a'y 10—offers a new
••l'om-Pom" study in stage boys. How
few actresses who essay
boys are really boyish!
Mitzi doesn't attempt to twist one
leg around the other in pretended em
barrassment. She doesn't walk with
bent knees as though trying to conceal
herself, and there is not the slightest
trace of the suggestive or the vulgar
in anything she does. Playing a boy,
she is a boy. She does all sorts of
things in trousers that a boy would do,
from playing pranks to climbing a wall.
She must have made a deep study of the
habits of the street gamin, because her
imitation is so adorably perfect. As a
denizen of the gallery observed, after
watching her antics:
"Gee! She's just like one of us!"
The latest n\elodramatic success,

vance that they were sure to spend an
evening of wholesome enjoyment at

to be discussed. The new play is in
four acts, filled with action from the
rise of the iirst curtain until its final
fall.
One of the most artistic offerings on
the Majestic bill the lirst half of this
w„eek is the sketch that
Dorothy Dorothy De Schell and
lie Sehell Company are presenting,
ut Majestic entitled, "Hearts Are
Trump." Both Miss De
Schell and her partner possess an|
abundance of talent, with the result)
that they tell the story of the playlet
in pleasing fashion. Four other acts
of merit complete the bill. For the last
half of the week Paul Armstrong's
powerful dramatic sketch, entitled "To
Save One Girl," will be the reigning
feature. Grouped around this attraction
are Frank Milton and the De Long
Sisters, one of the best-known trios in |
vaudeville, in their latest comedy offer- |
ing, "Tlie Diamond Palace;" Orren and
Drew, in a comedy singing, talking and

play, "The White i
Ethel Ilarrymore Raven," which was !
at the Colonial shown to capacity I
houses at the Colo
nial Theater yesterday and which will I
be seen for the last times to-day. The
picture is filled with big moments and

herself in order to get back to civiliza

with the understanding that he can
claim her at a future date. Tho pic

ACTION OF UNION
White Rats May Object; Hold
Territorial Jurisdiction;
Obstacles in Way
New York, Feb. 7.—Certain diplo
matic moves, supposedly emanating
from the throne room of David I*
Fultz, president of the Baseball Play
ers' Fraternity with a view to bring
ing the heads of organized baseball
Into a parley, gave an InUmatlon to
day that the strike movement was not
moving as smoothly as Its advocates
would have the general public believe.
This suspicion was confirmed wltlj the
return to-day of Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
of I^abor.
"The Baseball Players' Fraternity
has not yet been granted a charter,"
said the big boss of unionism in reply
to a pointblank question.
"One has not yet been denied them,"
he supplemented. "Their application
for a charter is still a mattter of cor
respondence which may later be
cleared up."
Mr. Gompers would say no more.
But from another power of unionism,
who did not wish to have his identity
disclosed, together with the voluntary
contribution of one high in the execu
tive counsel of the White Hats, the
whole story came out.
White Rats Dictators
It can be set down here now and as
unqualifiedly final that the Baseball
Players' Fraternity will not be granted
a charter by the American Federation
of Labor. Why? Simply befause the
White Rats, an integral part of the
federation, claims jurisdiction over the
ball players and object to their being
given a charter of their own. The
White Rats are willing to allow the
ball players to join their (the Rats)
organization if they so desire. So far
neither Fultz nor his flock has shown
any disposition to take this step.
It must be remembered, though, the
players will be accepted into the ranks
of the Rats as individuals, not as a
class. The vaudeyillians insist upon
the rights of certain discrimination.
The Rats defend their air of ani
mosity through the claim that the ball
player comes under the same heading
as the performer; that baseball is an
amusement just like a variety show.
1 Kidgley jn a part well suited to her
beauty and ability. Sessue Hayakawa,
the noted Japanese actor, has been cast
as an Indian conspirator, a part which
he plays with distinction.
Friday and Saturday Charlie Chap
lin will be the attraction in his latest
comedy, "Easy Street," which essays to
show "how the other half lives."
Gold, of the Family Theater,
Third and Harris streets, is going to
share with the patrons of his

the Family Theater between 6 and 7:30,
will be given a pay envelope containing
I . S. money. The smallest coin to be
Riven away will be five cents and the
largest a $5 goldpiece.
One of the attractions which Mr.
Gold has arranged for next week will
be a marriage to be conducted in the
theater on Tuesday evening, February
13. at which time C. E. Jones and Grace
Adams, of this city, will be married.
Mr. Gold's presents to the bride and
groom will consist of the services of the
minister, money and furniture. Patrons
of the theater next Tuesday evening
will enjoy the double treat of the regu

nessing of this marriage. Mr. Gold an
nounces that it his intention to arrange

hospitals, fire departments, charitable
societies, etc., from time to time in
recognition of the gratifying patronage
that has been accorded him by the peo
ple of Ilarrisburg.

traction for to-morrow night. They
will meet the Ursinus College quintet
in a game to be played on* Cathedral
floor. The collegians have won 3
majority of their games this year
against some of the strongest college
teams of the East. They defeated the
Hassetts at Collegeville a month ago,
but since that time the Hassett five
has been considerably strengthened,
and its games with Bucknell and

that it will give Ursinus one of the
hardest battles of its present season's
schedule.
An Added Feature
An added feature of Thursday's
bill will be the meeting of the Bow

Casino Bowling: league. In 45 games
he has made a total of 8,562 points
and an average of 190. Barnes plays
with the Calumets and will probably
be prominent in the coming tourna
ment. Montgomery, of the Electrics,
is second with a total of 8,339 points
and an average of 185. Other stars
who have been making good are Boss,
Orpheums; Buttorl', Alphas; Haas,
Jolly Kive; Basch, Jolly Five; Weber,
Calumets, and Bgrkeineyer, Rovers.
There appears to be a hitch in the
Folwell deal. THe football committee
at Penn has agreed on Folwell as
coach. Yesterday after a three-hour
session it was announced that no rati
fication of the\ selection had been
made. It looks as if there are still
some obstacles to overcome.
Ma.ior league magnates may not ex
pect the war to interfere with the sea
son's plans, but they are worrying
about prospects. At the schedule com
mittee meeting next week there will
be more to do than tlx dates. Tho
strike is about off, so there is nothing
to fear along that line. However, if
war is declared, it is a question
whether the game can be kept going
at a profit.
