DOWNEY SAYS HARRISBURG FANS WERE NOT GIVEN JUST CONSIDERATION-AMUSEMENTS TRYOUT AIDS GUN SELECTION Mechanical Idea That Makes It Possible For Shooter to Get His Needs By "TRAPSHOOTER" The chances that a shooter has of picking from stock a gun that is ideally—perfectly—suited to him are about two in a hundred—certainly not more than five. This does not mean that you cannot go into almost any gunstore and select a gun that will enable you to give a fair account of yourself at the traps or In the field, for you can, because of the studied efforts of gunmakers to strike aver ages to fit. Indeed, this is one of the wonders of the art of gunmaking. But to attain the Ideal of perfec tion, the trapshootlng gun should fit the shooter's shoulder, arms, hands, fingers, eyes, cheek; In fact, it should fit him from head to foot, and within small fractions of an Inch, for every part of a man's body has a bearing on his skill at the traps. Other essen tials of the perfect gun are proper weight, balance and trigger pull. Invents Try Gun With so many exacting conditions to be met. it would seem that the fit ting of a gun to a shooter was a con siderable undertaking, yet by no means is this true. A mechanical genius has simplified the operation by inventing the try-gun. He has worked out a system of applying set screws and lock nuts to an ordinary gunstock, thereby making possible ar.y combination of stock, drop of heel or comb, angle of pitch, cast-off cast in, etc. When fitting a gun to a shooter, the expert sizes up the candidate in a general way, then hands over the try gun to be thrown to the shoulder without any adjustments having been made. A critical examination will show, for Instance, that the stock is too short, the drop is too great and the cast-off is insufficient. These faults are discovered by the expert standing back of the shooter, in front of him and by having the shooter rest the gun in the hollow of his arm and reach for the trigger with his first finger. The set screws are adjusted to com pensate for these faults and locked in place to permit the shooter to try firing at a few targets. If the gun fits naturally and goes back to the same position every time the shooter throws it to his shoulder, and a fair number of broken targets result, it is safe to assume that the fitting has been a success, while if the gun does not handle easily and but a few or no targets are hit, the adjusting process Is continued. When It Is decided that a good tit has been secured, measure ments of the adjusted st'ock are made on a card designed for the purpose and it is sent to the gunmaker to guide him in fashioning a stock. Fortunately for the man who al ready owns a gun that does not fit, a new stock can bo made according to the fitter's specifications, or. In many <i s, the old stock can be al teri"'. It frequently happens that but ti ..ingle detail needs to be changed to n.ake a gun fit to perfection, but that little change in the gunstock may make a big change In the shooter's average. Therefore, the importance of having the gun fitted to you rather than trying to fit yourself to the gun. Only recently a man who had tried trapshooting with indifferent success —about 12 to 18 out of 60—went to a club and had a try-gun fitted to him. He immediately proceeded to smash targets like an expert. He broke 22 out of 25 clay pigeons when his gun fitted him. His showing proved that he was better able to Judge the course and the speed of the "flying birds" when his shooting Iron was made to his measure. NO SUNDAY BALL FOR BARONS Wilkes-Barre, Pa., June 12. Mayor John V. Kosek announced yes terday that amateur baseball would be prevented on the Sabbath In thia city in the future. Complaints have reached the mayor against Sunday games, and, in as much as there is a law against Sabbath sport here, the police have been instructed to see that the law is obeyed. Some of the city councilmen favor the Sunday sport, claiming it is the only day young men have for recreation. It is likely that council will be pe titioned to revoke the Sunday law.

SONG OF THE RAW RECROT Write not that his heart failed to feel The fear of the fight; Write not that his nerves were of steel In the hurricane blight. Write not that he stood to the flame Bereft of all fears; But rather grave this for his fame Through the myriad years; "He looked to no conquer's role, Where the Paladins dwell; He was scared to t he pit. of his soul— But he fought till he fell." . When Hughey Jennings turned Walter Plpp over to the Yankees the curtain was drawn across the future slate. Else Hughey would have surrendered any other man on his club, bar ring Cobb and, possibly, Bob Veach. For Plpp to-day is one of the greatest first, basemen, of the game—not only a hard, slashing hitter, but a brilliant inflelder, with greater promise ahead. Last year he drove In more runs than any other man In baseball, and he led his circuit in home runs. He is the game's hardest walloper to-day, barling no man that goes to bat, and in the combination role of offense and defense he has no superior—not even in Stuffy Mclnnis or Hal Chase. ANOTHER HONOR ROLiIJ Dear Sir: Nearly every sport writer has n\entioned football and tennis as the sports contributing the most enlistments. How about billiards? Here are a few facts: Nathan Hall, national amateur billiard champion, has enlisted. Nineteen players in one Brooklyn, billiard room enlsted n a body. Major Garrett, of the Missouri National Guard, visited a few Kansas City billiard rooms one evening, saw a total of sixty men playing, anti twenty-three of these enlisted that night. In Detroit recently six men were taking part In a billiard tournament. Five enlisted. ' Mrs. Bertha King, woman pocket billiard champion, has Joined the Red Cross. There are 4,000,000 people in, this country playing billiards. The rec ords will show billiards have furnished more men for the war than any other sport. These are facts. S. G. B. One writer, back in 1908, wrote that Fred Merkje's career as a major leaguer was over for good after a certain episode. We'd like to have a doubloon for every ball game Fred has helped to win since that classic date. Since that day he has served nine years under separate banners, and to-day Is still more than a Jump from the end of the highway. T. E. W.—The third best shortstop? Who is the first and second best? SOME DAY We think that we have always been, That Earth, the Moon, the Sun and Mars, Orion and the other stars Just Are—and never did Begin. Some day, when summer bursts in flame Along the deeps of Everywhere, Some god who really doesn't care Will lose his head and throw the gam. H. C. S. Benny Leonard, on top of the peak, now has but one regular rival In siprht. By dropping Richie Mitchell and Freddie Welsh he removed two of ?ile irain pillars tetiil left. Wolgast, Ritche and the old guard have drifted by. Charlie White is still around, but the main, barrier remaining is Johnny Kilbane, who already maintains one title. Kilbane is a fast, hard hitter, who Un.ows how to box and who moves along with the wallop attached. He is also adjacent to every trick of the trade. The two, tossed into one ring, should provide an entertainment well worth inspection. For where speed and hitting ability are sent against the same there is always a possibilty that the Old Haymaker may interpolate its thrill. "Can an outfielder throw further than a pitcher?" queries S. C. K. On an average, yes. Outfielders are trained for an extended range. All throw ing records are held by outfielders. The first established record of 135 yards was held by an outfielder, and the record was broken by Lejeune, another outfielder. Pitchers rarely attempt the long peg, as a different motion is required that might result In injury. It would be interesting, for all tljat, to see just how far one Walter Johnson could toss the old missile on a bet against the longest throwing outfielder now extant. Which re minds us again, who Is the longest throwing outfielder, Dave Robertson, Tris Speaker, Harry Hooper, or who? Speaking of able-bodied, long-distance veterans-—which no one was— there Is also the case of Mr. Clcotte, of the White Sox. Mr. Cicotte was a mate of Ty Cobb's on the Augusta, club in 1905. That was twelve years ago. To-day he is one of the leading pitchers of the game, apparently get ting jitrt w ell -nwmed up with the best start he has ever known. HARRISBURG IS BACK IN LEAGUE; DOWNEY TALKS Harrisburg is again part of the | New York State League, but only in name. Players who remained Wilkes-Barre have decided that a half loaf is better than none, and will go on the road for thirty days : with a guarantee that they will be paid for their work. No one has offered to pay their back salaries. The team will be without the serv ices of Tom Downey and Captain Doc Cook. They are in Harrisburg I waiting word to Join teams in the | east. Downey resides near Bridge-1 port, Conn., and has an offer that will keep him busy until winter, I when he will take up his profession.! Cook is considering several good of- ( fers. Downey is a big booster for Harrisburg and believes the team would have made good here had this j city been given Just consideration. | Ho said: Good Ball Town "This is a good ball town. I am, not excusing any person for bad bus- j mess management that put the city! out of baseball, but it. is my belief! that had the league officials shown any business ability this city would not be without baseball and the league would have been able to take, care of all obligations incurred by looking after the team. "Putting the team on the road for a month with a guarantee of salaries ss no Inducement for a player. If someone buys the franchise well and good, but that Is not a certainty, i even if there may be three towns seeking a berth. The best, the league will get with a road team is a guar antee of $75, and what money may be picked up in Sunday games. Wookl Pay Here "Harrisburg does not ask for base- I ball without paying for it. If the league means business and wants to succeed, it would h#.ve been more profitable to have games played here according to the schedule. The league | would get the profits. This town was NEW RULER FOR ALLISON LEAGUE Aid For All Teams Losing Players by Draft and Enlistment Because players from all of the teams have either enlisted or are about to enlist, the rule in the Allison Hill Baseball League that permits each club to carry eighteen players may be changed at the next meeting of the club officials. The league will aid all teams in filling vacancies. Rain has put a big crimp In the schedule. Not a contest has been 11 drawing all right and the team was . | getting better every day. Guaran tees won't even pay expenses. The International League run a baseball • team here and made money. I would i be willing to take the Harrisburg 1 1 j earn here with the league back of 1 It and would mako the proposition profitable. I am sorry that Harris | burg has been given a black eye.

Three Offers A dispatch from Scranton says: i "President J. H.

"He said that he had patched up | the differences with the disgruntled Harrisburg players temporarily and that they had decided to accept the proposition of the stockholders of the Harrisburg Club and will agree to take the guarantee of one month's salary, starting with last Saturday, and wait until the franchise is sold ' and part of the proceeds devoted to paying some of their back salary. "From every city, he said, come reports that attendance is picking up. Every day the clubs gel good weath er there are big crowds. "In Wilkes-Barre last Saturday, at the double-header, there was a paid attendance of over 2,900. i "Thus far Scranton, Syracuse and Utica have been greatly handicapped by the poo;- weather conditions, but President Farrell says there has been no diminution in interest, and the j game is being talked about just as though there was no war." pulled off since last Monday night.

The articles of agreement call for the sturdy little battlers to do 118 pounds ringside, the same as for their twenty-round mill down in New Orleans on January 8, when Williams was dethroned as the titleholder through a decision which caused the loudest wail to be set up probably in the history of the ring sport in this country.

No one expected to get a baseball franchise for nothing, but with present conditions, due to war, ar.d a likelihood that there may be no baseball next year, it would have been mere profitable j to permit home gamefe here with the crowds increasing than keep a team on the road. Certain New York State League officials never liked Harrisburg.

Why. not ASKSWOMEN TO BUY BONDS Should Show Might by Swing ing Loan to Success Before Thursday Night "Let the mites and millions sub scribed by women show woman's might In swinging the Liberty Loan to success before next Thursday night!" Upon receipt here this morning of telegraphic advice from Washington clarifying and emphasizing several new points governing small investors in the $2,000,000,000 Liberty Loan, Mrs. J. O. Miller, of the National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee ana chairman for Pennsylvania, Issued the foregoing appeal to women of the State to subscribe for at least a sin gle SSO or SIOO bond. "It is the duty of every Pennsyl vania woman who can," Mrs. Miller said, 'to buy at least one Liberty bond to help make up the $7,000,000 neces sary to complete the $2,000,000,0000 Liberty Loan before the date set for t lie closing of subscriptions, next Thursday nigh."
