ROSEWOOD GOES OVER TOP WITH PENNANT; HEYDLER TO SUCCEED PRESIDENT TENER
TENEROUT;
HEYDLER IN
If Wishes of Baseball Men Are
Considered Secretary' Will
Succeed to Presidency
There are two candidates lor the
job of being president of the Na
tional League, now that John K.
Tencr has resigned. The bulk of
k&seball men are strong for Johnny
Heydlex, who has been secretary
for the National Commission and
has more executive ability than all
the magnates rolled together. The
only other nominee mentioned is a
Mr. Brown, of Louisville, who is
conspicuous every time the league
li£h office is vacated. He is a close
lriend of Garry Herrmann's and an
U!k with many antlers—good fel
low, no doubt, but with none of the
qualifications of Heydler.
John Kinley Tener was the eighth
man to be elected president of the
National Baseball League. He was
chosen as the executive officer of
that organization in December, 1913,
!> nd the constitution of the league
was amended so that his term of
office was extended to four years.
In December, 1917, he was re-elected
for one year, with the understanding
that he could devote a great deal
of his time to a new commercial
enterprise of which he had Just
assumed control.
In 1913. when he was first elected
to direct the affairs of the older
major circuit, Mr. Tener was gov
ernor of Pennsylvania, and his term
of office in the gubernatorial chair
was not completed until 1915. Dur
ing* his last fifteen months as gov- j
ernor, Mr. Tener kept in close touch
•with the interests of the National
league, but it was not until the
beginning of the 1915 season that
he was able to devote his entire time
and energies to the league's affairs.
Mr. Tener was born in Ireland on
July 25, 1563, and came to America
•when quite young and settled in
Pittsburgh, where he was educated
and found his first employment and
later held responsible positions In
manufacturing firms there.
•While at school Tener learned to
play baseball, and made his first
appearance as a professional pitcher
in the old New England League with
"Wilbur Robinson, now manager of
the Brooklyn Nationals, as his
catcher. In ISSS his ability in the
box attracted the attention of Cap
tain Anson, who brought Tener to
the Chicago Nationals.

WEDNESDAY EVENING,
Snoodles Well the Army Had to Have Some Practical Practice
~~~ '
AROUND TH
Ban Johnson cannot be Kaiser any |
longer, say American League mag-!
nates. Johnson used to be a sport i
reporter and not a very good one at i
that. He fell in soft when the Amer
ican League started and has been a'
Czar ever since. "We have nothing
against him personally" say Messrs. j
Frazee and Griffith "but from now
on the club owners are going to run
the American League.
Poor old John Bull. He don't want
to play baseball, but he cannot quit.'
now he has once nibbled at the delic
ious morsel. Says a London Sports
Magazine:
"Yet although the reason why j
cricketers do not take to baseball has
been clearly shown, there are certain
points about the game which would 1
of themselves make it worth playing. !
In the first place, the throwing in
by the fieldsman is simply streets in
front of anything that cricketers can j
do. even the youngest and most ac- '
tive of them. The way in which a!
man gathers the ball and returns it;
without < the very slightest loss of.
time would afford an object lesson :
to the best eleven the universities j
could turn out. But we shall never j
see this baseball perfection in cricket. 1
for it implies the presence in the field
of no player who is not in the very
prime of life: the numerous veterans
who do very well cricket would be ;
hopelessly out of it.
"Another great point In baseball is !
the beauty of the throwing by the
pitcher. On July 4 both the pitcher's, j
Pennock for the navy and Lafitte for
the army, threw in the most graceful
manner, but Pennock, who is left
handed, would have afforded a model i
for a Greek sculptor, worthy to be |
placed side by side with the famous
Discobolos." His every action was
grace itself, and his subtle variations
would haave made the best of our I
bowlers envious. In cricket there
have been many left handed bowlers J
whose style has been impeccable, but
we cannot remember any one who has
had as graceful a style as Pennock. j
and we most strongly advise cricket
ers to take any chance they may have ]
of seeing him or Lafttte."
Following Johnny Evers' an
nouncement. that as a Knights of Co
lumbus sports director overseas he
contemplated organizing a baseball
team made up of men in the army and
navy to play a series of games In
Paris or nearer the trenches with a
team that John McGraw of the Giants
plans to take abroad, baseball en
thusiasts from all parts of the coun
try are suggesting players' names for
Evers' consideration.
Sunday baseball was tried here at
Rochester for the first time. Rochester
defeating Newark, 3 to 0. No admis
sion was vharged. but the fans con
tributed TO a collection taken up at
the grounds. The officials of the
local club announced that Sunday
games will be played f;r the remain
der of the season.
Kid Elberfeld. one time Yankee
until recently manager of the Little
Rock club of the. Southern League,
has a double hatred against the Hun.
Our entry into the war and the con
sequent disbanding of the Southern
League throttled the Kid's all ab
sorbing ambition —he wanted to stay
in the game until he saw his son play
alongside him. From time to time
Elberfeld had business propositions,
but he would not step down. "Wait
until my kid plays over there at sec
ond for me and then I'll retire," said
Elberfeld. And he stuck by his guns
until he had to quit.
NATIONAL AMATEUR TARGET
TITLE GOES TO HEER, OKLAHOMA
Chicago, 111., Aug. 7. —After tieing
with Fred Tomlin, of Pennsgrove, N. I
! J., with a score of 98, William H.
Heer, of Guthrie, Okla., defeated the;
easterner in the shoot-off by one tar
get, and won the national amateur
championship at single targets in
the feature race of the second day's
events of the nineteenth annual j
i grand American handicap, at the-
South Shore Country Club.
Before this event had been decid-.
Ed Frank Troeb, the sensational 3hot|
from Vancouver, Wash., won the na
tional amateur doubles champion
ship with a score of 90, and A. R. •
Chezik, of Portal. X. D.; B. F. El
bert. of Des Moines, la., and D.}
Fauskee, of Worthlngton, Minn,
went into a triple titfor first place,
in the Chicago overtnre, a 100-bird
event from the sixteen-yard rise. In
I the shoot-off at twenty targets Che
| zik won the trophy by breaking 19
targets, while Elbert and Fausxee
broke 18 each. As a result of the'
| tie each pulled down $325.60.
In winning the national champion
ship, Heer accomplished an unusual
feat. The westerner started out as 1
an amateur, but as soon as he be
came a top-notcher he turned pro- i
fessional. He was the high-average'
shooter of the country in 1910 and
1913, having percentage of over 97 i
per cent.
In 1915 he decided to turn ama
teur again; but, according to Inter-1
| state trapshootlng rules he had to
' stay out of all tourneys for three
i years. He abided by the rules, and.
after this varied career, has won the
highest honors in the amateur field.:
He is a left-handed shot, and one
of the best money shooters In the
game.
The amateur race was an Interest
ing one, and because of the small i
Elberfeld has gone to Camp Shelby,
at Hattiesburg, Miss., as a Y. M. C.
A. instructor.
The Red Sox look good for the
pennant. Cleveland whittled down
their lead, but a strong point now is
that Boston will hav e the bulk of her
games at home, and they are almost
unbeatable at Fenway Park. While
the Red Sox have lost some of their
most valuable men the club has a lot
of stars who are able to arise to
big occasions.
The Yankees again have fallen by
the wayside and are just finishing out
the season. Frank Baker had a bad
slump after being the first big league
player to get his one hundredth hit.
and the entire club slumped with him.
The Cubs practically ended the Na
tional League race last week, when
they took three out of four from our
Giants. Pittsburgh already had turn
ed a similar trick here, so the Cubs
had a five and a half game lead, with
less than a month to go. The major
ity of their remaining games are to
be played on their home grounds.
The Giants have been unable to profit
by the assistance rendered them by
Brooklyn, which recently beat the
Cubs four straight. The Cubs had
been enjoying a runaway, but the loss
of those four games while the Giants
won four out of five from St. Louis
once more made a race of it and to
day John McGraw has pulled his com
pany up to within a few points of Fred
Mitchell. McGraw never quit a battle
vntil the umpire was heme and in
ted. He has a good chaoco this year.
Ralph Mulford, the world's greatest
all around automobile driver, is the
second champion to enter the Inter
national Sweepstakes, to be run at
Sheepshead Bay Speedway on Satur
day afternoon. August 17. Arthur
Durray, the world's speed king, was
entered Saturday by Harry S. Hark
ness, the millionaire sportsman and
owner of the speedway.
Mulford this season is driving with
more skill and daring than ever be
fore. He has finished well up among
the leaders in the several long races
contested this season, but expects to
show the way to the field of starters
in the coming $25,000 sweepsakes.
That Hugo Bezdek has made good
as manager of the Pittsburgh team
is now being admitted by Eastern
baseball critics who couldn't see a
chance for the "busher'' a year ago.
One of the latest to praise Bezdek is
Joe Vila, the veteran who writes In
the New York Evening Sun:
"Hugo Bezdek surely has made good
as manager of the Pirates. He took
hold of the team last year under the
most trying circumstances and grad
ually strengthened the weak spots
until the Pittsburgh players now are
holding third place with a firm grip.
Bezdek has surmounted several ob
stacles this year. He has lost Sten
gel. Caton, King. Carlson. Hamilton
and other capable men who are in
the service. Ellam at short field is
a genuine find. So is Southworth in
right field. Bigbee has developed re
markably under Bezdek's coaching,
while Cutshaw is covering second
base as well as he ever did for Brook
lyn. If Secretary of War Baker had
allowed the players in the deferred
draft classes to remain with their
clubs until October. Bezdek modestly
says that the Pirates would have had
an excellent chance to win the pen
nant from either the Cubs or the
Gin-nts. At any rate Smokeville
fans, after many years of gloom, are
supporting a real ball club, and
Barney Dreyfuss is making some
more money."
field was shot on two traps. Tomlin
' was the first to complete his string.
' He broke frO straight in his first two!
events, but dropped 57th and ">2d
birds in the third contest. He show
ed his real ability by going straight
in his last 25.
Heer finished his first 50 targets
with a score of 49, having missed his
I 28th tafget. After he had broken
25 straight in the third event, the
large gallery circled the trap where
• he was to shoot his last string. They
were rewarded by seeing him break
24, enough to put him into a tie with
Tomlin for the championship. Heer
missed his 86th target, which was
thrown at a bad right angle.
As soon as the shooters had taken
a short rest they were called to the
traps for the shoot-ofT. There was
a difference of opinion as to who
would be winner, but a tight race
was expected. Charley Newcomb.
state champion of Pennsylvania, was
. selected to referee. The race did not
last as long as expected, as Tomlin
missed his third target, while Heer
broke all of them.

[Copyright. 1918. by The Tribune As
sociation (New York Tribune) ]
My voice is not Caruso's and I'm just
a trifle loud; ,
The odds are_ you can hear me in the
midst"of any crowd;
My accent isn't pretty when I get the
last command.
But I speak the only message that the
Hun can understand.
Give me the right deflection and the
proper range to boot.
Give me a keen-eyed gunner who is
hep to how I shoot:
Give me the ranging angle and before
the minute grows
I'll give the Bosche a lesson in the
only gab he knows.
I'm Just a wee bit throaty and per
haps a trifle hoarse:
My accent isn't soothing and my dic
tion's somewhat coarse;
I've never studied grammar and my
stvle is poorly planned.
But I speak the only language that
the Bosche can understand.
"XONCOMS" VOL WEAR
FEWER CHEVRONS NOW
Paris. Aug. 7.—American "non
coms" are no longer to wear their
corporal and sergeant chevrons on
both arms as heretofore, hut will
sport them on the right sleeve only.
There is some discussion as to the
precise reason for the new order —
wheather a saving of chevrons is in
tended or whether It is to prevent
the "noncoms" from beins gradually
covered with stripes altogether. Serv
ice stripes, such as are unlortunately
apt to come, and kindred marks of
honor will eventually leave little
room for double chevrons.
King Ferdinand
Leaves Bulgaria
'
An official dispatch from France
says that German newspapers report
King Ferdinand of Bulgaria has gone
to "foreign lands" for some time on
account of ht health. His sudden de
parture from Sofia at this critical
time is regarded as significant in dip
lomatic circles In Washington. Fourj
years of continual fighting preceded
t>y the two Balkan wars have drain-]
ed Bulgaria's man power. The pros
pects of a poor harvest is having a
depresing effect on the people and
tends to strengthen the reports that
they are tired of the war.

■ | It was a pitchers' battle between
John Jones, Villanova star, and Earl
f j Waltz. For five innings the two teams
I battled for an advantage with neither
| team able to tally. The the torrid
\ heat began to tell on Waltz, who was
. compelled to ease up a bit. His
brother, "Ossie" Waltz, lead off with
i a single to left field, and Earl Kil
linger placed one at the same spot,
r Garverieh advanced both of the run
ners on his fielder's choice. Glenn
I Killinger then rapped out his long
1 triple and both runners scored. Waltz
| then struck out both Johnson and
• I Hoerner, but the damage has been
! j done.
Reading had men on second and
! third on two different occasions, but
■) lacked the necessary punch to put
[ i them across the plate. In the first
, Ibach knocked out a Texas leaguer
that Garverieh or Geary might have
' 1 caught. But the two players crossed
'j in their signals, and the ball fell safe,
f; Tim Euker sacrificed. Levan was
: given a base on balls, and both
I players advanced to second and third
jon a fielder's choice. But the neces-
I sary punch was lacking and the play
| ers were stranded.
Again in the sixth Tim Euker and
r ! Iyvan walked. Levan was thrown
. | out at second on a fielder's choice
I that Wertz hit to the pitcher. "Bill"
Euker was hit by the pitcher, filling
the bases with one down. McCurdy
whiffed for the third time, and "Os
sie" Waltz played deep for C. Swartz's
fly to right.
While interest centered around the
great work of the pitchers, both
teams played errorless ball. Despite
the heat wave, another large crowd j
was on hand to see what is the final
Allison Hill contest of the season. A !

MARINES LIVE
UP TO RECORD
Work Against Hun Equal to
Best Traditions of
the Corps
The U. S. Marines have astonished
the world by their work against the
Huns during the past several months,
j Harrisburg is proud of the men that
! she has given to this branch of the
! service. More men from the city are
enrolling every day for training as
"Devil Dogs," as they have been
dt'bbed by the Germans. The Har
risburg Marine Recruiting Station is
, located at 307 Market street,
j "It was not," remarked the French
allies of the U. S. Marines operating
at the bridge over the Marne at Cha
teau Thierry, "a healthy place for a
German picnic."
Immediately after that incisive ob
servation was cabled over by Gerald
Campbell, one of the correspondents
assigned to the French front, word
came that the Germans were affrlght
edly averse to holding a party of any
sort opposite those same hard-hitting,
absolutely deadly Marines. With the
first shots from their locker, the U.
S. Marines had got the Huns' goat.
One regiment of them, which distin
guished itself for its business-like
mopping up of that Hun-infested sa
lient. was rushed straight to the bat
tlefield from its landing stage on the
■ shore of France. No time for finlsh-
I ing touches: 110 time for special In
! structions on the ground behind the
j lines—simply a swift fling of the
I whole regiment from its transport ln
j to the thick of the fray; and then in
j stant effectiveness of a quality that
left the German veterans largely
harmless and wholly terrified.
Behind that regiment's magnifi
cent work from the tap of the bell
lies the wonderful story of the train
ing It had at home—of the training
which is being given to every one
among the thousands of recruits now
being enlisted in the U. S. Marines
in order that the number of the Corps
rray be Increased to the 75.500 author
ized by the recent Act of' Congress,
in compliance with General Persh
ing's request for a full division of
Marines on the Western front.
This home training, so interesting
to every American, is of supreme Im
portance to all who are between the
ages of 18 and .36 years and are eli
gible for admission Into the corps';
because, as has been demonstrated on
every battlefield, it la the best fighter
who is Bafest.
There are two great and active
training camps (or U. S. Marine re
cruits; one. (or men enlisting East o(
the Mississippi, at Paris Island, close
to the South Carolina coast, midway
between Charleston and Savannah;
the other, (or men enlisting West o(
the Mississippi, at Mare Island, off
the coast o( California, where com
modious new barracks have been
erected. The course o( instruction is
practically the same in both camps.
At Paris Island, (or example, there
are actually Ave camps, the recruit
progressing from one to another ••
his training advances. The boys call
the Itinerary, "Around the World in
80 Days." mainly because that is Just
about the time it takes the average
rookie to pass through the five
grades.
Men trained as these have been are
fit to encounter the best the Germans
have; but the U. S. Marine Corps
prides itself on doing a good Job
better than best. At Quantico, 30 miles
south of Washington on the Virginia
coast line, is the immense finishing
camp that gives the alumni o( Paris
Island their post-graduate dourse be
fore they sail tor France.
No raw recruits at Quantico; the
whole 6,000 who are constantly In
train'ng there have had their prelimi
nary Instruction prior to arrival.
