(postponed tie game.)
With exactly one-half of the sched
ule played in the Allison Hill League,
at least three of the clubs have an
equal chance to win the pennant. So
close is the struggle for first place
that one-half a contest separates
the first three teams. Each team
that Reading. Rosewood or Galahad I
play. there is likely to be a shift in
the standing. As a consequence, the
three teams are taking a delight in 1
ousting each other from the top of I
the ladder. In this matter the Hick-
A-Thrifts are also playing a part.
Twice recently they have pulled the
league leaders from first position. ,
Hick-A-Thrift strengthened the
r.ine considerably by acquiring "Bob- 1
Vv" Clark and •"Babe" Alcorn for |
the pitching staff. Both are experi- |
cnced players and will add much j
strength to the "Hickles." While i
Clark played first base in the Steel
league, he made his debut as a ,
twirier in the Hill League and tossed
a splendid game.
Manager Pressler will likely se- ;
lect George Germer to pitch for
Reading vs. Galahad to-night. It ]
will be George's first chance in the
league. For Galahad, Harry Biever
is likely to get the call.
Reading and Rosewood will oppose ,
each other twice thts week. Thurs- ,
cay night is a regularly scheduled
contest, while Friday night they will I
attempt to play oft their tie strug- '
gle.
With McCleaf. Landis. Longeneck- ;
er and Leidig ready to take their i
turn on the mound. Manager Killing
er has a well-rounded pitching staff. ;
Next Thursday night will be an '
open date for the league because of j
the Fourth of July. Galahad and ■

What do you think of the Home

James Z. McGrather.

Answer:
The Home Guards are most essen
tia! and necessary. Pennsylvania has
recognized the Home Guards as aux
iliary police protection under ap
pointment by the Governor, who
1 utilizes their services in the protec
tion of industries, suppression of riots
and tumults and preserving the pub
lic peace and safety. Twenty-five
counties in that state have systemat
ic organization; this should be true
in every state and county in the

Committee Votes "Dry,"
but Favors Protection
Washington, Jur.e 24. —On the eve
| of hearings before the Senate Com
| mlttee on Agriculture on the Jor.es
, wartime prohibition amendment to
the Emergency Food act, there were
two Important developments—vir
tual agreement by committee mem
bers that the California wine bust
| ness shall be protected, at least until
the season's crop of grapes can be
I disposed of. and the announcement
! that the committee had gone on
record by a 7 to 4 vote as favor
ing some sort of wartime prohibi
tion.
The decision to exempt the wine
business was based on an argument
by Representative Kahn of Cali
fornia. who told the committee that
ruin for thousands of California
vine-growers would follow the sud
den cutting oft of the manufacture
|of light wines. Senator Phelan of
, California gave the committee data
I on the financial obligations assumed
:by the vine-growers, and showed
how many banks in hts state would
be seriously embarrassed if the paper
they hold should suddenly be rend
ered worthless by the ruining of their
clients' business Then William Jen
nings Bryan, who came to Washing
ton to lead the prohibition forces,
advocated that the committee frame
any prohibition amendment it might
adopt so that it would enable the
California wine producers to save
this year's business. The 7 to 4
vote was not taken on any specific
amendment, but on the principle of i
wartime prohibition.

The Steel League played at Spar

the trick then he will have to get in
some more talent. There will not be

The game of Saturday was very
sad. Xine Cottage Hillers got snow
on their feet and froze to various
sacks of sawdust. Hunter was there
again with two husky clouts, and
"Bud" Weiser also had a brace. But
Weiser counteracted for this merit
by dropping a fly after two were out.

I The committee will resume its ses

will announce a definite date for Mr.

of Mr. Ford was brought about by
the recent testimony of Bainbridge
Colby of the Shipping Board to the
effect that prohibition would seri

to accept this statement, it is said,
and Mr. Ford will be asked, as an

John L. Sullivan could do this, scar
ing the unfortunate before he struck
a blow. This appeared to be the
trouble with Miss Goss.
Miss Bjurstedt's "nonchalant" man
ner had its psychological effect on
the playing of Miss Goss. The latter,
a wizard at strokes naturally, found
her skill wasted against her clever
and mora experienced opponent. Miss
Bjurstedt adopted the placing meth
od to wear down Miss Goss. and that
she succeeded is evidenced by the
score of the only two games played,
I 6-4, 6-3.
The Norwegian is an old campaign
]er and playing before a crowded
grandstand was nothing new to her;
j if anything, it was an incentive to
I her to play her best tennis. Miss
! Goss was making her first appear
\ ance in the challenge round of a na
j tional championship, and the sur-
I roundings must have affected her
game far more than that of her op
ponent. There was never any doubt
about the result, for it was appar r
ent to all that Miss Bjurstedt was
absolutely confident as to the out
come. while her opponent conveyed
the impression that she knew that
she had no chance of defeating the
titleholder.

JEWISH TEMPLE
IS DEDICATED
Kesher Israel Congregation
Takes Over Magnificent
New Building
With services marked by love for
church and the country which has
afforded protection to its church and
its people, and continuing both aft
ernoon and evening- .the new Kesher
Israel Synagogue, Capital and Briggs
streets, was dedicated yesterday.
Previous to the opening of the aft
ernoon services, a parade led by
Rabbi Silver, of Kesher Isreal, was
held through the central streets.
An important part of the after
noon's services were addresses by
three visiting rabbis, including Rab
bi D. Lavinthal, of Philadelphia;
Rabbi Moslianski, of New York City,
and Joseph Rosenblatt, of New York
City. Rabbi Silver also delivered a
short talk. Following these address
es, the twelve windows of the church
representing the twelve tribes of
Israel, were sold at auction for a to
tal of $1,500, The famous Rosenblatt
choir sang several selections, accom
panied by the Hebrew orchestra, of
Philadelphia.
The evening program was made up
entirely by a concert by the Rosen
blatt choir which rendered a number
of patriotic and Jewish selections.
The leading feature of this program
was a Jewish cantata in which Jo
seph Rosenblatt famous cantor tenor
took the leading part. Persons desir
ing to do so were shown through the
church at the conclusion of the
evening's services.
Nathan Gross was president of the
general committee that arranged for
