COCKILL'S CREW LACKS PEP
LOSE TO BINGHAMTON;
HITS FEATURE CONTEST
Lack of pep when on bases, and
scarcity of ginger In tleldlng lost a
game for Harrlsburg yesterday.
Binghamton won. score 9 to 6. Twice
during the battle the Islanders had
a substantial lead, but let victory
slip away through failure to movta
faster.
Pitcher Cooper was Introduced
and he was getting better every In
ning until veteran Charlie Miller fell
down and permitted tho Bingoes to
steal bases at will. Buck Ramsey,
unprepared, came in and his lirst In
ning at work was costly.
For Binghamton Manager Chic
Hartman offered Coporel as his
mound artist. He looked like easy
picking and Forbes came to the res
cue. He, too, was in danger and
Frock was chased in to stop the
swats. The Bingoes iced the game in
the sixth.
Made Hits Count
Hartman's heroes made their lilts

rounds of the circuit. Harrlsburg

HERE ARE RULES
OF THE ROAD
There's Pleuty of Occasion to
Obsotve Them in the Daily
Routine of Living
B,v BEATRICE FAIRFAX
When you are driving a car up a!
dark road in the black of night and
another car bears down on you, both
you and the other driver lower your
glaring headlights—if you are gentle
men who follow "the rules of the
road."
In the heart of the big city, traffic
policemen will see that you keep to
the right, park your car on the
proper side of the street and make
your turns around just the proper
islands and corners. But out in
the open country, there is nothing
to hold you to proper courtesy
except your own willingness to
abide by "the rules of the road."
Life is very largely a matter of
open country and "the rules of the
road." A great many people seem
to feel that there is no particular
object In playing fair if they can
"get away" with cheating and evad
ing rules.
Rule breakers often manage very
nicely for a long time—but at sorno
stage of the game, they can almost
be guaranteed to "come a cropper"
and let themselves in for a very bad
smashup.
Now to return to our automo
bile —which Is a good enough il
lustration of the fact that some of
us are glad that we have five cents
carfare! If a car is proceeding full I
speed ahead up the wrong side of
the road at about forty miles an
hour, it is not startling that it
should dash into another with a
horrible toll of death and destruc
tion. There is the supreme penalty
for breaking the rules of the road.
Perhaps the car which is hurtling
through the dark at forty miles an
hour only smashes itself. If there
are witnesses to prove that it was
on the wrong side of the road,
going too fast, the driver has no
redress and may even have damages
to pay.
Breaking the rules of the road
flagrantly and openly always leads
to damages.
Men have, through long years of
legal training and of dileot deal
ing with the law, acquired a cer
tain respect for law and order
which we women foms are a bit
slower in getting. With them there i
is r knowledge that honesty Is the
best policy; whereas with women!
honesty gets the accent as a senti
mental and beautiful thing quite
apart from its practical value.
Rules and regulations and laws I
are made by men, so naturally they j
have a bit more respect for laws in i
general than have wo, who knowi
how unfair are certain laws in par
ticular.
But that does not excuse us from
smashing certain rules all to pieces
and trading on our sex to help us
get away with our offenses.
Have you ever stood In a group
of fifty or a hundred people wait
ing for seats in a crowded motion
picture theater? It Is generally the
women who dash down the aisle and
almost knock over the people who
are leaving in an effort to get the
seats they have vacated. If men |
did a thing like that they would be!
called cads—and they Know It. But j
women will only be laughed at good
naturedly.
I frequently lunch In a very largo;
tea-room on the avenue which has
an almost exclusive feminine clien
tele. When the place Is crowded, tjie
women look about to see who has
arrived at tho fcastry and hot choc
olate stage, and then stand ner
vously and irritably waiting for the
[luncliers to finish, in order that they
may dash in and take their places.
It Isn't a bit polite or chivalrous,
and the rules of tho road ought to
say: "Take your time, wait your
,turn placidly and don't give ner
vous indigestion to the people who
are occupying the place you covet.''
Mofet of life is a matter of taking'
your turn, of standing in line, of
waiting for the call, "Next!" either
in the doctor's office, at the ticket
office or tn the jam for a crowded
car. A little courtesy to (he man
ahead of you and a little decent
appreciation of the fact that the
man behind you Is an anxious to ar->
rlve*as are, you all work in as part
of the rules of the road.
Consideration. courtesy, good
humor, and a frienrtly acceptance
of crowding and pushing and shov
ing will all help do away with
crowding and pushing and shoving.
Helping to ease up the other chap's
burden is not likely to make your

DISCUSS PLANS
| Take Up War Tax; May Re
duce Club Rosters to Meet
Expenses
By Associated Press
New York, May 12. At a spe
cial meeting here to-day of the Na
tional league various phases of the
baseball situation which have arisen
since the opening of the season were
to be considered. Among the sub
jects to be discussed is the govern
ment tax upon gate receipts; the
possible conscription of players for
army service; reduction of club
rosters and reports of conditions In
the cities represented by senior
league teams.
Plan to Pay Tax
President John K. Tener was ex
pected to outline a plan whereby tho
10 per cent tax upon admission
charges to ball parks would be
assessed on the purchasers of tickets.
In a general way It is proposed to
levy an additional charge beginning
next month upon all admission and
seat coupons equal to 10 per cent, of
the former or present price of tick
ets. Under this plan a 60-cent ticket
will cost the fan 55 cents and $1.50
seats $1.65. Free admissions will
carry a flat tax of Ave cents each.
own appreciably heavier. Every
time you refuse to wait your turn,
every time you endanger other
people's comfort for your own or
demand more than your share of
room, you are smashing up the
simple traffic laws which Insure
your comfort and safety as surely
as they do those of everv one elße.
It isn't "sporting" to breuk the
rules of the road ann It frequently
gives you a moment's extra time,
an instant or two of comfort and
achievement, but that doesn't help
you much when you pay for your In
fringement of the rules In terms
of the discourtesy and law-break
