    SIX-CYLINDER BASEBALL AT COTTAGE HILL WINS TWO GAMES AND TIES LEAGUE LEAD
ROUGH STUFF ,
FOR TANKERS
West End, in Brilliant Game,
Treats Them to a 5-0 Defeat
on the Home Grounds
Next to the big league games at
Btefelton, the brightest pastime yes
terday was the corking battle at
Fourth and Seneca streets between
the famous West End lads and the
"Treat 'Em Rough Tankers," of Get
► tysburg, which wound up, C-0 in fa
vor of the Killlngers and Pitcher
Waltz. On this Saturday, West End
plays at Hershey and on Saturday,
July 13, she hooks up with the Rux
ton A. C. for the championship.
Team work and ginger gave the
West End chaps an advantage over
the genial Army tankers who could
not combat the shrewd pitching of
Waltz and the aggressive work of the
Killinger demons and other hard
hitting West Endcrs. Waltz himself
took a hand at the bat, tearing off
a furious circuit clout which scored
two runs in addition to his own. This
happened in the fourth and sort of
crumpled the gallant tankers. The
play all through was very fast and
spectacular.

SPORTS GALORE
ON THE ISLAND
Soldier and Civilian Athletes,
Boy Scouts and Y. W. C. A.
Maids Give Big Show
The Island recreation park was the
scene yesterday of an uncommon
show, where hundreds of the city's
athletes took part in track • games
and dashing maids of the Y. W. C. A.
entertained an enthusiastic crowd
with folk dances on the greensward.
The meet was somewhat shadowed
by the big parade, but there was a
fine attendance just the same.
The committee in charge included
H. M. Butler, r.tarter; Dr. C. B. Fa
ger, referee, J. K. Staples, A. R. Fer
riday and V. Grant Forrer, judges;
C. W. Miller, chairman of arrange-
I ment committee.
Industrial plants of the city sent
their crack performers and one of
the most exciting events was a one
mile relay, which was bagged by the
jP. and R. team in the exceptional
I time of minutes, 3 2-5 seconds.
I Spotts, Heins, Charles and Davles
I made up the winning outfit.
Camp Colt furnished a smart event
in the 100-yard dash, with full
trench equipment and won by Rob
erts, 12 3-5 seconds.
The Boy Scouts opened the enter
tainment with a 44-yard relay race.
The Whtie team won with the fol
lowing: John Lewis. Charles Hines,
Abe Michlovitz, Bebert Witman, Ed
ward Arter and Amos Nye. Win
ning time, 1:56 2-5.
The Boy Scouts after the race gave
a rare drill in pyramid signaling,
wig-wagging to the utter mystifica
tion of the spectators. The Scouts
also pulled off a rescue race which
was quite diverting.
The tankers held attention with
an interesting bayonet drill and the
program was brought to a close with
a special 100-yard dash, being cap
tured by Demming in 11 2-5 seconds.
During the afternoon the Shamokin
and Municipal Bands played gaily.

Finds Bars Attract
Married Men Most
Springfield, Mass. —Saloons do not
attract young men between seven
teen and twenty-four years of age as
they do older men, nor are single
men so numerous as married men at
the bar, according to a report sub
mitted by C. C. Robinson, of New
York, to the conference of the Asso
ciation of Employed Officers of the
Young Men l * Christian Association,
In session here. He said:
"This is partially attributed to the
higher idealism of tho young men
and also to the fact that unmarried
men spend a good deal of time in
the company of their sweethearts.
The saloon seems to be most popu
lar in the years between thirty-five
and forty-five, the dull, drab years
of middle-age."

C. Howard Reel, president of the

called within several days to reach a
decision in the matter.

his leg here yesterday afternoon
when he attempted to steal second
base in the fourth inning.

his weight threw his body around
the leg snapped at the ankle. He
was given first aid by Dr. A. S. Weiss,
Lebanon "bonesettey," and' removed
to the Good Samaritan Hospital for
further treatment.
LEONARD SLUGS II HA 7,7,0
Jack Brazzo, the Hazleton boy, who
succeeded in getting a chance with
Benny Leonard, met the lightweight
champion yesterday at Wildwood, N.
J., and was fairly slaughtered. In
the eighth round, rearing the finish,
the referee stopped the bout to save
Brazzo further punishment. There
were forty seconds to go. Leonard
showed himself a master, even with
eight-ounce gloves.
