NEW YORK STATE LEAGUE CANNOT DO WITHOUT HARRISBURG IS GENERAL BELIEF YALE'S PLANS STILL IN DOUBT Await Arrival of Captain Overton to Start Ath letic Program i New Haven, Conn., Sept. 18.—No statement of Yale's athletic plans for this fall will be possible until after a meeting of the athletic council, which may be held late next week. At that time the views of the new military Instructor of the university. Captain Overton, will be given and a definite policy will be adopted. The athletic officials of the uni versity have delayed making any plans whatever until after Captain Overton's arrival. They wish the undergraduates to enjoy all the ath letics possible this fall, but they have laid down the principle that military training of the students and university aid to the military service of the country must take precedence over athletic plans while the war lasts. No Fixed Schedule Yale will open September 27 with all athletic schedules for the fall canceled, although the athletic of ficials are arranging a list of games for the freshman eleven. Usually the varsity football squad Is at work, about seventy-flve athletes strong, by this time, but at present no member of the athletic counciP or athletic teams, including the chairman, Pro fessor Corwin, is here. John Mack, the football trainer and track ath letic coach, has just arrived and is looking after the athletic plant. The question of grounds for the fall sports Ls still under discussion. The Yale athletic plant ls at the dis posal of the military heads of the country and is now being occupied by the First and Second Connecticut Infantry, which has been combined as the Onto Hundred and Second TTnlted States Infantry. They expect to depart for France soon, but the bowl and some, if not all, of the other athletic fields may be used for military puposes this fall. An estimate of the attendance makes it probable that between 1,800 and 2,000 students, against about 3,400 a year ago, will make up Uie university the coming year. Camp Hill High to Have Fast Team on Floor This Year Camp Hill High School officials plan to put the fastest team in the history of the school on the floor this season. Plans for the season were made at a recent meeting of the High School, Athletic Assosia tion. There is good material in this" school for this year's representative five. Thomas who last year played sensational ball will again play on the team. Thomas stopped going to Camp Hill school during the lat ter part of the season to enter Cen tral High School in this season. Here he was given good training and should be a valuable man to the team. Bowman of last year's team is back in school and will be on the team. John and Adam Nell, Ed mund Good and Hugh Harrison are other candidates. The second and girls team will be organized in the near future. No coach has been selected . yet. It is likely that practice will be started in a few weeks. Officers elfected are: President, John Nell; secretary, Mary Strode; treasurer, Dorothy Kendall; man ager, boys' basketball team, Ed mund Good; manager girls' team, Rebecca Kiiborne; advisory com-1 mittee, John Bashore, Katherine Smith, Boyd Freeze, Jean Dodge, Re becca Kilborn, Edmund Good, Pro fessor Fred Roekey and Professor Halbold.

Herzog for re- I fusing to accompany the team on the recent trip to Boston, although in formed by Manager McGraw that he would not lie asked „to play if he did not feel equal to doing so. A case similar to that of Herzog also has arisen in the local club of the American League, which yester day indefinitely suspended Third Baseman J. Franklin Baker for al leged insubordination Baker had requested permission to visit his farm in Maryland last Sun- | day, but was told that he had been advertised to appear in an exhibition | game in Bridgeport, Conn., that day.

TO THE MACKMEN—THE PIRATES—AND THE BROWNS The dark must come and the dream must die; The hope must fade which the morning knew; Some one must finish eighth—so why Not you? , You played your game in the jamboree; You stuck it out while the grandstand cursed, Serenely knowing some club must be The Worst. Giants are anxious and Sox can't sleep; Phillies and others are on the fret; But over a tough loss do you weep? Not yet. When the peevish ump gives a deal that's raw, Cutting you off from the tielng score, For you It ls only a loud guffaw— No more. Let those who crown the top, Stale and worried across the skit; You should bother—you who can drop No whit. Up there struggling for the pot. Each new day brings another pinch; You are the only guys who've got A cinch. A SOUTHPAW GROWTH The amazing prevalence of left-handers the last few years has brought on a big change from the old world series days. Back in 1905 Mathewson Bender and McGinnity, all right-handers, were the only winners In 1906 Nick Altrock was the only big factor against Walsh, Brown. Reulbach and Overall, all right-handed pitchers. For the next three or four years the main factors were Brown, Overall Reulbach, Donovan, Mullin and Adams, all right-handers. Then came Bender, Coombs, Mathewson, Tesreau, Bedient an.d Wood, with Plank and Marquard about the only southpaws of note, this list followed by Rudolph and James. The right-handed majority in the old days was about three or four to one. Now it Is almost the other way. Last year it was Ruth and Leonard against Sherrod Smith and Marquard. For 1917 the left-handed smear is even more pronounced. Three of McGraw's main winners are left-handers Two of Rowland's stars are left-handers. With five left-handers tossed into one series, the complexities of the case are beyond all unravelling. What, with left-handers predominating at bat, this is getting to be a left-handed age. No wonder the dazed universe ls badly upset and be wildered. Facing the White Sox will be an old story to the Great Zlm, a relic of his Cub days. But there will be one vast difference, a difference which Zim contemplates with unusual cheer —viz, there will be no Ed Walsh Ditchine five or six of the games for the other side. Dallas New Head of Middle States A. A. U. Philadelphia, Sept. 18. Samuel J. Dallas, secretary of the Meadow brook Club, was elected president of the Middle Atlantic Amateur Athletic Union at the annual meeting held last night The election of the popular Mea dowbrook official was unanimous, no other nominee running for the office. He succeeds Herman Meyer as presi dent of the District A. A. U. After his election Dallas, who is the most prominent figure in the new guard, which is gradually taking over the authority of the union, pledged him self to an active administration, say ing that he would do everything in 10s power to foster amateur athletics in the district. George W. Braden, of the Central Y. M. "C. A., was chosen vice-presi dent, and Al Wanamaker, who dur ing last year was handlcapper, was elected secretary and treasurer. Dr. J. K.

Recently Herzog claimed the of ficials of the New York club had I promised to allow him to rest and recuperate just as soon as the series lof double-headers with the Phillies was completed at the Polo Grounds. He is now at his home at Ridgely, Md., and says his medical advisers assert it would be injurious for him to play for some time. Giant Head Kxplains President Hampstead sent out the following announcement on Herzog: "Player -Herzog without notifying me did not attempt to go on the sec- I ond western trip. As soon as I heard of this I held a consultation with the I club physician, Manager McGraw and | Herzog. He was advised that the I club needed his services even if he | did not play and Manager McGraw I advised him that he need not play If he did not feel equal to It. He changed his mind, went with the team and voluntarily played. The day before going to Boston on the last trip Herzog notified us that he would not go with the team. Man ager McGraw told him that he need not play if he did not feel equal to it, but that he needed him along with the team, notwithstanding which Player Herzog left the team and nothing was left to do but to suspend him." 1 City handlcapper and William H.

In other words, Leonard refuses to draw the so-called "color line." In tackling Johnson Leonard Is assuming no easy task. On his past performances the colored boxer is looked to make things decidcdlv In teresting for Leonard. Johnson is possessed of a certain amount of cleverness which gives him the lend ing position among the colored box ers who are eliglble-for a chance at Leonard.

Whether the circuit will be composed of six or eight clubs will be determined within the next two weeks. Freeland dropped out last year due to lack of support, but may again have a team. Al Plymouth ■ the situation is somewhat uncertain, but it is expected that the town will continue to support the game. The other towns are Hazleton, Wilkes- Earre, Nanticoke, Scranton, Carbon dale and Pittston, all of which are anxious to resume the sport. It was feared during the summer that the league would be put out of business on account of the war be cause sgme of the teams would be deprived of the use of the state arm ories, where they played their games, but the managers have been Informed that they can again have their old quarters. The draft has taken some of the stars, but their places will be filled by new material.

Harmon, according to his conversa tion, had tried to Secure a license at other places nearer his home, and, on failure there, had come to Springfield for that express purpose.. Mr. Davenport, in explaining the reasons for Harmon's failure to get a license, said that it was probably due to the fact that the license blanks and forms had not yet been distrib uted to the places where the old gen tleman had tried to get the permit.

HARRISBURG TO HAVE BASEBALL If Game Is Certainty Next Season Farrell Circuit Will Need This City Baseball next year is doubtful. In dications are that, the national game will have a season off. Unless the war ends by February 1, the New York State Leugue is not a certainty. If there is baseball in the minor dis tricts a complete reorganization of the Farrell circuit will be a certain ty. Harrisburg is to be a part of the new organization; This is in brief the belief of John C. (Red) Calhoun, who was manager of the champion Willces-Barre team this season. He was in Harrisburg on a short visit prior to going to his home in Pittsburgh. Manager Cal houn said: Season Was Bad "It has been the worst season I ever experienced. Things will be dif ferent next year if there! is baseball. I do not think the New York State League will start before 1919. When it does Harrisburg will be on the circuit. A team is needed in your city to make it a real circuit. Losses this season will reach $60,000. Trou bles on Harrisburg will be fixed up." A dispatch from Scranton says: Team owners in the New York State League have already begun to arrange for the 1918 season, which will probably witness a complete re organization of John H. Farrell's fa mous old minor league circuit, which was one of the very few minor or ganizations to stand the gaff of the 1917 term. Change Is Certain The team owners are all prepared for a change. The new tentative plan that is to be discussed as a supple mentary proceeding to the expected offer from the International is the establishment of a circuit that will be compact as to geography and very Inexpensive to operate. It calls for the dropping of the northern New York territory alto gether and the pairing of Elmlra witty Binghamton, Scranton with Wilges-Barre, and Harrisburg with Reading. This calls for two New York State cities and four in Pennsylvania. It indicates that Harrisburg is to be taken back in the State League fold, !as several of the magnates have hinted that plans will shortly be be gun to reclaim the lost prestige for baseball in the State Capital. This would make an ideal circuit. There would be very little operating expense as regards mileage and the like, and there is no doubt that it would enliven interest.

Had the magnates taken his advice and remained out of the game this year, there would have been a cash fund to resume the game when opportunity came. According to reports the New York League will have to include Harrisburg when business is resum ed. A circuit is impossible without this city. With a new organization terms would be made that could be met by local magnates. If baseball is resumed In Harris burg there is a strong probability that the games will be played else where than at Island Park.
