Which pair will shoot Its well known, science Against the also well known Giants? —Songs of Rooters' Row. Col. Hugh S. Fullerton. the well-known salmon impresario and agile guardian of the Grandoldope, evinces the opinion that the White Sox wiU romp home tidily in the American League pennant race. "The White Sox ought to win," says Hughey, "by a fair margin." A world series between the White Sox and the Giants would carry a more spectacular effect for two reasons— 1. There would come the ancient rivalry between New York and Chicago—the metropolis of the East against the metropolis of the West. 2. There would be an intersectional world series for the first time in seven years—since Cubs and Mackmen clashed in 1910. But, for all that, we disagree with Hughey's analysis that the White Sox should predominate over their rivals in Red hose. W HITE VS. RED The White Sox have a first class ball club. They have proved that by sticking closely around the peak all year. But to say theyshave a stouter machine than the Red Sox is another matter. Schalk, back of the bat, is a better man than Thomas, Agnew or Cady. The White Sox have the edge here. In the box we'd considerably rather have Ruth, Leonard, Shore and Mays than Cicotte, Williams, Faber, Russell and Benz. The Red Sox staff for three years has proved to be one of the most effective collection? of the decade—especially down the stretch. At first Hoblitaell and Gainer makg a stronger combination than Gandil can offer. Hobby is not only a wise bail player, but he is also a dangerous citizen at bat when a blow may produce a run or a rally. At sec<lid Eddie Collins figures over Jack Barry, but to no remarkable degree. Ii Eddie was batting up around his old mark of .330 or .340 it would be another matter. But Eddie batting under .280 has only a faint edge on the alert, resourceful Barry. There is no argument between Evertt Scott and Risberg at short. Scott is one of the great shortstops of the game and an experienced campaigner, at his best under heavy fire. Buck Weaver and Larry Gardner make a great pair at third. Both are among the best. Weaver has had a trifle the better upon attack this year, but Gardner is a bit steadier at third and a dangerous hitter. In the outfield Jackson. Felsch and Leibold figure, on figures, above Lewis, Hooper and Walker. But Jackson is 60 or more points below his normal batting stride, whle Lewis and Hooper are two of the great out fielders of the game, of far greater value than the figures show. THE STRETCH AHEAD Here is still another factor. The Red Sox for three years have shown themselves to be the best campaigners down the stretch that baseball has known for a decade. They have the tradition of victory back of them. They have proved their ability to lose stars at critical moments and still keep plunging forward, filling the open, gaps with indomitable spirit. The White Sox have set a fast pace all year, but the Red Sox have re fused to be shaken loose. On two hard Western trips they have held their own—being equally alert on the road and at home. They are a hard club to beat for the simple reason that one has to beat a good pitcher at every start. And when the pitching falters the club is likely to come through with five or six runs and win anyway. There isn't a finer defensive club in baseball to-day. In fact, there is no other club as defensively strong. And with the defense they have a husky attack when the occasion calls for th_ same. A STEADIER CLUB The Red Sox, in addition, do not toss away as many games as the White Sox. The latter club has kicked away many a battle this season which it should have won. It lacks the sureness of its rivals, who are rarely in clined to boot away a tidy lead. In 1915 and 1916 the Red Sox were much better after August than their Chicago rivals. On.ce they get within sight of the stretch and the wire and their pitchers begin to unfold they have met nothing yet to hold them back. Both times they cut their way safely hrough the American League, beating Chicago and Detroit almost at will, and their world series record is eight victories against two defeats. The White Sox may be due this season and they may win. Their victory would undoubtedly add spice to the next world series. Going to Boston for a post-season affair lacks the variety which is said to be the spice of life. Boston has been holding world series events for the bulk of the last four years. But despite this the odds still belong to Boston until she is outpaced through August and September—a performance which is no easy-going, gentle affair. 1 e>u/ttv>tva > uj , ~ m - SCORES OF YESTERDAY National League Boston 3, Chicago 0.

HARRISBURG OUSSft TELEGRAPH CHAMPS READY FOR BIG BATTLE; MEAN BUSINESS JOttNNY QENISY LtCNARa ' Philadelphia, July 25. Johnny Kilbane has placed himself on record that to-night he will do his level best to knock Benny Leonard out when they meet in the ring at Shibe Park. For two or three days there have been rumors claimed to have been circulated by rival promoters to the effect that the Leonard-Kilbane match was to be merely a dress re hearsal sort of affair staged with the idea of having the boxers get some soft money in this city and to ad vertise a longer bout in New York or Cleveland. These rumors reached City Hall yesterday afternoon and were brought to the attention of Su perintendent of Police Robinson, who announced at once that as far as the Police Department was concerned the rights of the sporting public of Philadelphia would be protected. TREE LICENSES NOW PROVIDED State's New System Will Pre vent Frauds Upon Farm ers in Opinion of Hill The new nursery Inspection law recently signed by the Governor will enable the Department of Agricul ture, through the economic zoologist, to co-operate with the fruit growers in eliminating undesirable nursery stock from the state of Pennsylvania. Under this law all persons, Including nursery dealers or agents, soliciting for the sale of nursery stock in the state must secure and carry with them an official license issued at the Capitol. Penalties for noncompli ance with this regulation are pro vided and wilful misrepresentation of nursery stock offered for sale Is a misdemeanor. The Agricultural Department bul letin says of It: "Many of the irresponsible nurs ery agents who have worked in Pennsylvania during the past years must now secure a license or go out of business. Many fraudulent sales of nursery stock by various schemes have been promoted in the past. Citizens of the state should avail themselves of this law and report any suspicious actions on the part of nursery agents to the economic zoologist, Harrisburg." , The bulletin also says: "In past years many materials for the spraying of trees and the control of insects and fungus diseases have been placed on the piarket, either so diluted or mixed with useless ma terials that their value has been questionable. "Plaster of parls 'has been mixed with paris green to a considerable extent, and other mixtures accord ingly. In many cases exceptional and impossible claims have been made by manufacturers of pro prietary spray materials. Much money and time has been lost to fruit growers and farmers through these fraudulent practices. "Under the new insecticide and fungicide law, recently signed by the Governor, the Pennsylvania Depart ment of Agriculture, through the economic zoologist, will Inspect these materials placed on the market for sale. This law requires certain standards of purity in paris green, arsenate of lead, llnle-sulfur and other similar materials. Excessive or fraudulent claims as to the value of these materials will also be cur tailed and labels must be printed In accordance with facts." 1 Use McNeil's Pain Exterminator. —ad Jimmy Dougherty, of Leipervillo, promoter of the fight, said: Stop light "I would be the first to stop the bout if I thought the boys were stall ing. But lam certain you couldn't get Kilbane to do such a trick, and I am almost as sure Leonard would not stoop to it, either. "But if they should try to put one over, they will be pitched out of the ring and the public's money will be returned at once. I pldge myself to see to that." When Benny Leonard was inform ed in New York of the rumors re garding the bout here going to be a fake, he authorized the following statement: "I know that Kilbane is the kind of a boxer who likes to stand off; he does not like to try boring in tactics. I Intend to carry the fight to him from the first bell. I will try to out point, outfight and finish him If pos sible before the scheduled six rounds pass. I cannot understand where or how a report originated. There will be no need of police interference on the fake proposition." At a meeting of those interested in the coming Kilbane-Leonard bout, held at the Hotel Vendig last night, many oi the 'details of the contest were arranged. The question as to who was to referee has been inter esting the fight fans for the past ten days. Last night this question was settled by the selection of Frank O'Brien, referee of Olympia. The question of a referee was arranged by the placing of the names of W. H. Rocap, Jack McGuigan, H. C. Crow hurst and Frank O'Brien in a hat. When the little pellet bearing the name of O'Brien was drawn he was awarded the position of referee. STEVEDORES ARE NOT INCLUDED Maritime Accidents Do Not Come Under State Com pensation Systems Now The St&te Compensation Board in a decision written by Commissioner John A. Scott holds that the state compensation system does not apply to maritime accidents because the Supreme Court has decided that ex clusive Jurisdiction in such cases is vested in United States courts.

Holds Back Great Airplane Program By Tying Up Lumber Mills Washington, D. C.. July 25.—The Industrial Workers of the World, operating in the great spruce forests of the Northwest, have blocked the great $6 10,000,000 aviation program of the United States and its allies. The signature of the President, which was attached to the aviation bill, is thus practically nullified by traitors. This announcement was made by Howard E. Coffin, chairman of the aircraft production board of the Council of National Defense. "Not a wheel is turning in the spruce sawmills and not a foot of spruce in the forests from which we were to get our supply is being cut," said Mr. Coffin. He leaned forward earnestly and struck his desk savagely: "We cannot make public the name of a single factory where our stand ardized battleplanes or our airplane engines will be turned out, because if we do the I. W. W. will go into that plant and tie it up. That or ganization is the greatest handicap to our whole air program now that we have got It safely through Con gress." Girls Asked to Stop Kissing U. S. Soldiers Hammonton, N. J., July 25.—Miss Grace R. Osgood, ( daughter of Free holder Cyrus F. Osgood, and recently appointed chairman of Hammonton unit of the Women's Council of the National Committee of Defense, has written a protest against women of fering to kiss recruits, urging that such action militates against the up holding of the respect of woman hood. one of the chief characteristics of a civilized nation. "On the surface," she writes, "it looks too silly to take seriously, so every one laughs. But for all that the suggestion is bad. American girls are brought up to think that promiscuous kissing is indecent. But now. Just because some of them ari> soldiers, it suddenly becomes proper —whatever a soldier does is right."

WELLY 5 ~j CORNER Reports from Reading verify those from Scranton that Dr. F. M. Tate and Manager George Wiltse are ready to quit for the season. If the truth was told, there Is not a team In the New York State League that Is doing a paying business. Elmlra. lstnghamton and Syracuse are finan cially fixed and will be able to stand losses, but the other teams are down and out financially. President J. H. Farrell Is a fighter and he is doing his utmost to keep the State League from going under. Of course, no league, no salary. However, that In not the motive back of the determination to stick out the season. He fears trouble In reorgan izing when times get better. You must hand It to the baseball fans in Chambtrsburg. They lose out with a baseball team and then come back and show a desire to take up another franchise. Of course, the Gettysburg players will be worth something if there is baseball next year, but present indications are that investments in players at this date will be a long while bringing profits. The Phillies are still sliding. Man ager Pat Moran is- certainly in hard luck at present. He appears to be suffering from a lack of pitchers and pinch hitters. These factors are needed In all baseball games. Harrisburg fight fans will be well represented at the Kilbane-Leonard iight in Philadelphia to-night. Many have arranged for ringside seats. It promises to be an interesting bat tle. "While both fighters are deter mined to do their level best to bring a knockout, It Is not likely there will he a decisive decision. Six rounds are just enough for two good lighters to warm up. In weight and physical dimensions Leonai-d will have the advantage of Kilbane, but this is offset by the greater experi Clerks Shut Out Champs; Chard Allows No Hits In the Lucknow Shop League series yesterday, the Clerks had a walkaway victory over the Smith Shop team, winning by a score of 9 to 0.
