HASSETT PLAYS ROSEWOOD TONIGHT—NEW DUCKPIN LEAGUE READY TO START' YORKTOSSERS EASY VICTIMS Independents Trim Codorus Cage Stars by Big Margin The Harrisburg Independents had little trouble in defeating the York Professionals at the Chestnut street auditorium in the holiday game last evening by a score of 53 to 31. The game was one-sided, the locals hold ing the lead during the greater part of the game. York was unable to break up the locals' passing and shooting and as the result many good plays were reg istered. From the first whistle until the last the York team did not look like a winner. The Independents displayed more ability at passing and shooting than at any other time this season. McCord Big Star "Ike" McCord played the best game for the locals, making several long and hair-raising shots from the field. The entire local team did creditable playing and the showing last night was improved over that in previous games. The lineup and summary: Independents. York. N. Ford, f. Seasholtz, f. Wallower, f.

Jan. 2. —One cannot accuse some big league clubowners of not having the nerve. Right now a number of magnates are seeking the services of Hank Gowdy, star backstop of* the Braves, and are re ported to have made George Stallings very attractive offers for the sorrel top marksman. At present Gowdy is in France, a sergeant in the Ohio National Guard. There was nothing conditional about the Gowdy offer. It was a clean prop osition, without any clause which would abrogate the transaction in the event Hank was unable to join the new owners. It was a gamble, but the other fellows were willing to take the chance. When Gowdy re turns he is certain to be a greater hero than before, and as a result of h(3 increased popularity he will prove to be a greater drawing card. AMUSEMENTS VICT ORIA and Tomorrow M.S.

I The audiences gave unstinted praise j to the initial showings of "The Judg j ment House" at the i "The Judgment Regent Theater lloiifte" at yesterday, and it the Itegeiit proved, as had been . ... expected, a leading holiday attraction. The masterly hand of J. Stuart Blackton, the direc tor, was evident- throughout the lilrn. in its scenic effects and in its power to enthrall the spectator. This production is adopted from the well-known novel of the same title by Sir Gilbert Parker. England's re nowned writer, and tells a delightful story of .Tasmino Grenfel, a beautiful ! and frivolous English girl, who has j two suitors and who plays fast and j loses both. Finally she marries one |of the two and enters upon a life of linhappiness, because of her husband's | dissipation. A thrilling and mysteri j ous murder, scenes of the Boer War. and moments throughout of emotional power, serve to make this film one which will be hard to excel. The management announced that on Friday and Saturday there will be a tlouble attraction of unusual merit. "Nan of Music Mountain." the star of Which is the handsome Wallace Jteid of Paramount fame, will be the head liner. it is a western story, said to be full of thrills from start to whirl wind finish, but has many new angles and contains a love story of unusual interest. The Mack-Sennett comedy, "That Night." will provide the second part of the bill. One of the world's best-known and best-dressed woman, Mrs. Vernon „ __ Castle, is the Mrs. Vernon Castle attraction at In "Sylvia of the the popular Secret Service" Victoria Thea ter to-day and to-morrow in the mysterious detec tive story, "Sylvia of the Secret Ser vice." In this production Mrs. Castle portrays a role totally different from any she has ever had before and scores another great success before the camera. The story is replete with thrills and is full of action from start rto finish. Mrs. Castle wears a num ! ber of new and most gorgeous gowns, | several of which are shown in the picture in different colors, all ofwhlch will delight women patrons. As a secret service agent Mrs. Castle is I very attractive, and portrays a role in RANKS OF SPORT HIT BY DEATH Nearly One Hundred Answer Call of Grim Reaper During Year Washington, Jan. 2.—The Grim Reaper did much to thin the ranks of sport during the year just clos ing. Nearly 100 men have answered the call and taken the final count, and included in this number have been some of the best-known "lightß" in one branch of sport or another. The death of Frank Gotch at his home in Humboldt, lowa, was the latest score made against sports by the Reaper, and through his passing the wrestling world lost its great est of all champions. Early in the year, in January, to be exact, William Chase Temple, donor of the Temple Cup and for mer president of the Pittsburgh ball club, was taken down the trail over which no man returns. Temple was one of the grand-daddys of present day baseball and the lirst man to in troduce a plan for deciding the world championship. Harry lloltgrleve, former world champion weight lifter, and Eddie Dolieny, who used to pitch for the Giants and Pirates, also died in January. February marked,the passing of T. H. Murnane, veteran baseball scribe of Boston, a power in the minor leagues and a writer of coun try-wide fame for his sound sense and fairness. Joe Lindley, former world champion bike rider, T. H.

In June, Plill Dwyer, veteran rac ing man, answered the last call at his home In New York, and Joe Acton, formerly wrestling cham pion of America and England, died at Portland, Ore. Dr. James Dwight, veteran tennis player and formerly president of the United States Lawn Tennis As- I sociatlon, died in July. A 1 Palzer, j the heavyweight boxer, was shot and | killed by his father the same month, i A. C. Buckenberger, formerly man ager of the Pittsburgh club and lat ( er its president, also died in July. William A. ("Toney") James, vef- I eran baseball catcher, took the long 1 trail in August, and Cy Alberts, an ! other veteran of minor league fame, i died the same month. Knap Mc | Carthy, a veteran racing driver, ans wered the call in September. October and November saw twelve football players pass along as a re sult of injuries received on the grid iron. Bob Fitzsimmons was counted out for the last time in a Chicago hospital on October 22 and Willie Lucas, a lightweight boxer, also died in October. | Steve Brady, veteran ball player, once captain of the famous Metro | politians of New York, died in No vember, as did Dick Roche, former 1 manager of Jack Dempsey and Jack McAuliff. I Charles White, veteran referee, i was called early in December, and Robert Mcßoy, business manager of the Cleveland Americans, died in Milwaukee December 2. William G. Weart, veteran base ball writer, also died this month, passing along after a short illness due to pneumonia. the same fashion that has mado her one of the foremost stars of the screen. For to-morrow there will be , offered the second instalment of "Vengeance and the Woman," featur | ing William Duncan and Carol Hollo- I way. A vaudeville show of exceptional ' strength and merit can be seen at the Majestic the early part of At the the present week. Valentine Mnjerttic Vox, well known to local theatergoers, is providing a popular number on the bill with his offering entitled "At the ("Tub." Mr. Vox is a master enter tainer and never for a moment does the audlenco experience a dull mo ment during the presentation of his act. Other acts on the bill are: Dun bar's "Mississippi Misses," an aggre gation of talented performers, in an attractive revue of picture dances; Val and lirnie Stanton, In a very good comedy variety turn; Statzer and Scott, presenting a lively burned cork offering, and Arthur and Grace Terry, in a pleasing novelty act. Catherine Crawford's "Fashion Re vue" is the headliner for the last three days of the week. Surrounding this attraction are: Reno, in a novelty surprise offering; Dougherty and Scalia, in !h comedy song and patter skit; Arthur Pickcn and Company, presenting an amusing comedy play let, entitled "Their Wedding Day," and the Van Brothers, in comedy, songs and nonsense. It is said Norma Talmadge was never more appealing than in her newest Selznick Norma Talmudne picture, "The Secret at the Colonial of the Storm Coun try," which is being shown for the last time to-night at the "Colonial Theater. As the moun tain girl, sweet and innocent. Miss Talmadge endows the role with grace and charm, making it stand out well. Some wonderful outdoor scenes have been photographed for this picture, which furnish attractive backgrounds for the action of the piece. A strong cast of players has been selected for this production. To-morrow and Friday a screen presentation of Rex Beach's famous novel, "The Auction Block," will be shown. JANUARY 2, 1918. Rtwdllyit 9 W CORNER. Plenty of excitement Is assured to night when Rosewood tackles the Hassett five. The latter will be at home, but the Hill ahamplons do not worry over a trifle and have been making better rocords on strange floors. The players aro all local boys and rivalry is strong. The York Independents were out classed by the local Ave last night and are anxious to meet other Har rlsburg teams. They will probably have an opportunity to play both the Hassett live and Rosewood champs. In either case the results will be the same as last night. There is nothing in York that can beat a Harrisburg basketball team of the caliber of the Independents, Hassett or Rosewood. The Ben Hur cage aggregation of Steelton, a bunch of fast young stars, will get going to-night. They play the St. Joseph team of Lancaster. Win ning a victory will put the Ben Hur speed boys in the same class with the Garnets.
