CHANGE HIGH SCHOOL RELAY CLASSIFICATION—GOSSIP ABOUT PLAYHOUSES
CHANGE CLASSES AT PENN
FOR HIGH SCHOOL
FAST TEAMS AGAINST LOCALS
The classification of the local high
schools in the Perm relays has again
been changed. Johnstown, Altoona,
Peabody of Pittsburgh, and Williams
port have been moved out of the lo
* * cals' class. In their stead will be
placed Binghainton, N. Y„ Trenton, N.
J., and McKlnley Manual Training
school, of Washington, D. C.
in addition to these schools there
will be Heading, Steelton, Tech and
Central. All three of the schools from
the States of New York, New Jersey
and Washington, are of a fast caliber,
and represent larger student bodies
than any of the local runners. Track
candidates from the four local schools
are out dally, and are preparing for
the first meet at Philadelphia the lat
ter part of this month.
Harrisburg Academy runners will
compete in Class 8 for preparatory
schools. Local athletes will be pitted
against Pennsylvania Institute For
Deaf, Brown Prep., Central Prep, of
Philadelphia, Wardlow school, Wil
mington Conference Academy.
Record Entry List
Many new schools are on the list.
A new class race was necessary for the
. high schools, and two new races for
' the preparatory schools. The list is a
record-breaker for both classes. . In
all there are 56 preparatory schools
and 113 high schools entered. Real
training for these hundreds of school
boys started in earnest this week and
will be continued until the day of the
races.
The high school championship race
has received the best entry in the his
tory of the sport and the team winning
will have every right to call them
selves the champions of America. It
should take a fine performance to
win this event.
The preparatory school champion
ship will be another great race, with
Lawrenceville here to dispute supre
macy with Mercersburg and Exeter,
the two schools that have accounted
for this race for the last live years.
The large number of schools entered
compelled the management to till all
the classes to the top, and this should
mean even better racing than was seen
last year.
The fact that five preparatory
school races and seven high school
races were won in 3 minutes 40 sec
onds or better last year indicates what
a large number of high class young
quarter-milers the schools are de
veloping. The entries follow:

German's Anti-War
Talk Causes Smiles
r By Associated Press
Washington, D. C„ April 4.—When
Secretary Lansing's attention was di
rected to-day to an apparently inspired
statement from Berlin that a state of
war would effect no change in Ger
main's treatment of Americans in Ger
many he thought a moment, smiled
broadly and exclaimed: "I am sorry
to hear that."
Apparently officials here think the
only change could be one for the
bettor.
The only comment on the further
statement that Germany would not
go to war with the United States even
if the United States went to war with
her was that that would make it much
easier for this country. If Germany
does not consider bomb plots in this
country, the Zimmermann note and her
ruthless submarine campaign acts of
war, officials here are at a loss to know
what she would do If she actually de
clared war in her own terms.
PURCHASE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
Countv Commissioners to-day de
cided to purchase at least twenty-five
small hand fire extinguishers. These
will be distributed in the various
rooms and corridors of the court
house. While practically all the rec
ords are kept in fireproof cases, ad
ditional protection is needed, it was
said, to prevent small blazes which
be started.
TO OPEN PAVING BIDS
Bids for paving Oak street, Seventh
to Elizabeth; Oxford, Sixth to Jeffer

On I Joins Rcatly.
The man who is there with the wallop and punch.
The one who is trained to the minute,
May well be around when the trouble begins,
But you seldom will find fie is in it;
For they let him alone when they know he is there
For any set part in the ramble, .
To pick on the guy who is shrinking and soft ,
And not quite attuned to the scramble.
The one who is fixed for whatever they start
• Is rarely expected to prove it;
Tliey pass him along for the next shot in sight.
Where they take a full wind-up and ftroovc II;
For who wants to pick on a bulldog or such
Where a quivering poodle is handy,
When ho knows he can wjn with a kick or a brick
With no further trouble to bandy?
It has been remarked before that "war is hell." In which respect war has
very little on other details of this existence, where the break is well away from
the expected line. Peace can furnish as many varieties of Gjhenna as any
thing else, given a proper opening.
"The Days of Real Sport''
J. Honus is now in his forty-fourth year.
There are golfers bewhiskered and white;
But the greatest old sport, and the one who is dear
To me, I observed Sunday night;
While visiting home I was looking for beer.
And I found, by the cellar's dim light,
That father, who's far past his sixtieth year,
Was making another kite. Sleepy Steve.
Baseball and War
Some one, it may have been us, has opened a discussion as to what effect
actual war would have upon baseball interests in these U. S. of A.
The affirmative and the negative here each have good arguments. War
news and war interest would, of course, far overshadow any sporting news or
sporting interest, and in that way have a depressing effect.
On the other side of the hill, the populace in times of gloom and depression
has always seemed to crave some diversion to break the monotony of constant
anxiety. As proof of this last statement, Toronto and Montreal last season in
the International League bad very good seasons, despite the fact that Canada
has been head high into this war since the start.
Sport in time of war is nothing like as important a matter as it Is in time'of
peace. But it still has its uses as a diversion-—as a section of the program
that is cast in lighter vein. For that reason sport will not be shelved by any
means. No nation, even in war times, is going into sackcloth and ashes un
less it is being crushed or pressed to tKe limit. Those not actually engaged
will stick to old habits of diversion, just as one in time of trouble craves to
bacco more than at any other period of his life. -
For Ralplayers
The best move the ballplayer and the club owner could possibly make would
be to follow out the American League idea of military training advanced by
Captain T. L. Huston.
In case a call for enlistment was made, the country at large would look
upon baseball with far greater favor if every league was also a military train
ing camp where the players wre drilling in the forenoon, and rounding out
their schedule in the afternoon. t
This move would not only be a boost for patriotism, but, looked upon in the
more sordid, commercial way, would add greatly to the player's interest.
Otherwise, more than a few citizens will be asking why a lot of husky young
athletes are hanging back if the call should come. And if this query assumed
the form of general resentment, the attendance would soon fall away. But
10,000 ballplayers in all leagues getting ready for any needed military duty
would not only be a big boost for general training; it would also be a big boost
for baseball.
The Duffer's Viewpoint
I'll take my chance with a submarine,
But 1 hate to putt on a tricky green;
I'll risk my dome where the bullets fly,
But take me away from a cuppy lie. K. H. F.
Those who still persist in the belief that golf is an Old Man's game are re
quested to exchange wallops on the course with Bobby Jones, Norman Max
well and Perry Adair at $5 a hole. This will be a splendid chance to prove
your point.
UNABLETOMEET
BIG DEMAND FOR
VACANT HOUSES
Realty Men at Loss to Provide
Homes For Scores Who
Want to Come Here
Realty men in the city, swamped
with a steadily increasing list of ap
plications for houses to rent, are at a
loss to meet the demand, said to be
the biggest in the last ten years.
Many of the applicants are persons
residing in other cities who desire to
locate here; others are from persons
wWdse leases have expired and must
vacate properties because the owners
want possession.
"We haven't had a house to rent
for more than three weeks," one
dealer reported this morning.
"There are more than one hundred
names on the waiting list here," an
other said.
"Families in other cities can not
come here, they tell us, because there
are no accommodations in rentable
houses," a third declared.
Few Houses For Rent
A careful investigation by a num
ber of the realty men showed that in
the city at present there are fewer
houses for rent than in years be
fore. Scores of applications are on
file in every office, but there is no
immediate prospect for relief. The

majority of these, it is reported, are
houses which will rent for prices
ranging between sls and $25 a month.
Because of the difficulty to obtain a
suitable dwelling for rent, a number
of persons are purchasing properties
instead.
While construction of a number of
houses has been started, and several
other building projects arc under con
sideration, realty men declare there is
a pressing need for at least three or
four hundred more dwellings which
could be rented almost at once.
•100 Homes Needed
The possibility of a big and profit
able investment by the erection of a
large number of houses is pointed out
by the dealers, some of whom are
making efforts to have plans started
and financed either in the city or from
outside sources.
A thorough investigation of housing
conditions is needed also, and the
question may be called to the atten
tion of the City Planning Commission
in the near future.
Taking over of properties in the
Eighth ward in the Capitol Park Ex
tension area and also for the new
freight warehouse of the Pennsylva
nia railroad resulted in the razing of
hundreds of houses. As a number of
the occupants remained in the city
this has added to the need for bet
ter housing and more dwellings.

DR. DIXON WARNS
OF COMING DANGER
Says That All Unsanitary
Places Should Be Cleared
lp Without Detay
Warning that all unsanitary places
must be cleaned up to prevent an epi
demic of infantile paralysis was Issued
to-day by Commisloner of Health Sam
uel G. Dixon to all local boards of
health, health officers and Inspectors
and medical officers of the depart
ment. The notice gives instruction as
to what must be done and asserts that
it is imperative that Immediate steps
be taken to prevent spread of disease.
The state suffered from a severe
outbreak last summer and Dr. Dixon
wants the. authorities to take every
step to prevent any further outbreak
this summer.
"We must anticipate some polio
myelitis this year and take e% - ery pre
caution In the "way of preparedness
against it," said Dr. Dixon In discuss
ing his action to-day, "even though its
presence last year does not necessarily
mean a severe epidemic this summer.
"We are coming into the season
when, through the disintegration of
organic matter, much of the new In
sect life of the year will come Into Its
first stages. It is during this season
that infantile paralysis generally ap
pears in epidemic form.
"In preparation it behooves us not
to let any precaution escape our at
tention. Thus we should enter upon a
vigorous 'cleaii-uu,' especially when we
keep in mind what excellent results
were obtained in last year's epidemic
when we went into some of the small
towns and showed them how to obtain
almost ideal housekeeping.
"For some years the Pennsylvania
Department of Health has been work
ing for a preventative that could be
supplied in sufficient quantity to fill
any possible demand. In this impor
tant work Pennsylvania can report
progress.
"We must at the present time rely,
however, solely on the results of ex
perience obtained in fighting the dis
ease. And one of the first lessons is
that we must keep perfectly clean our
houses, outbuildings, grounds, stables,
barns and barnyards. Every care must
be taken of each water supply, for
each one represents a stone In the
foundation of preparedness.
"The great move now being taken
by the Department of Health is a cru
sade against filth, not only In the cities
and towns and boroughs, but in the
country districts. The circular of in
structions is being sent not only to
our county medical inspectors and
health officers, but to all the depart
ment nurses and stream inspectors as
well.
"The State Department of Health,
with the Governor standing bfchind
the Commisioner of Health In the
work, calls upon every individual and
all the local health authorities to push
with a strong hand this task of insur
ing the health of our little children,
who will soon stand In our places—
and especially at this time when they
face the heritage of preserving peace
and order in not only our own union
of states but perhaps in the whple
civilized world."

On Saturday, April 14, for an engage

"Have a a Heart," one of the really

son. The advent of any
Henry W. Savage offering is invariably
a notable occasion in focal theatricals,
but the forthcoming presentation of
that always dependable producing man
ager s newest success will be awaited
with unusual Interest. "Have a Heart"
Is said to be distinctly different from
the usual run of musical comedy con
coctions. Having as a theme the love
adventures of a young married couple,
who have agreed to disagree and are
about to be divorced, when the action
of the play begins, the story is ingeni
ously contrived with many surprising
ly novel and highly dramatic episodes
and originality of construction that is
only too rarely encountered in the or
dinary musical comedy plot. During the
long run of the play at the Liberty
Theater, New York, the theatrical re
viewers were lavish in their praise of
the piece, and, according to all advance
reports, "Have a Heart" undoubtedly
scored the signal success' of the season
insofar as musical comedy offerings
were concerned. The enthusiastic ap
proval of the play by the New York
critics was unanimously endorsed by
Philadelphia. The company comes here
direct from a brilliant engagement at
the Forrest Theater in the latter city,
where capacity crowds filled the play
house to overflowing at every perform
ance of the piece.

headline position and with their sing
ing, playing, dancing and comedy they
furnish just the kind of entertainment
that meets with local approval. Four
other excellent acts, Including Hugh
Blaney, the popular singing comedian,
round out the bill. The last three days
of the week Billie Burke, producer of
a number of vaudeville novelties, will
present two of his offerings—one of
which is a big comedy act entitled
"Motor Boating, while the other is the
"Man Off the Ice Waeon," who, not so
