EDDIE FLANK VERSUS JEFF TESREAU TOMORROW AT STEELTON; SYCAMORE CHAMPIONS THE BLACK CATS GET SCRATCHED Kiwanis Treated the Stygian Felines Roughly and Then Fed 'em at Elks Club The Black Cats of Camp Colt, un der management of Captain ( Omar Harris, the soldier-psychologist, who started baseball in the Orient, met the Black Demons, better known as Kiwanis, yesterday afternoon, at the West End grounds, and after this no one need fear a black cat. With ag gressive collateral talent made up of renowned ball players from- various colleges, the Black Cats clawed at Pitcher Hinkle. but could not draw blood. Hinkle proceeded leisurely as a man sliding coal into your cellar and each one of his shells were aimed surfely. The Treat Em Koughers only nicked his delivery six times and most of them were scratchy; albeit Holmes rode one for three bases. Nine of his victims died by the strikeout route. Sterrick had a monopoly of hits for Kiwanis, belting three times. A big bunch of the advertising fraternity turned out to support their heroes and after the defeat they showed what good fellows they are by enter taining the Stygian felines at the Elks Club on the fat of the land. The game was so attractive and ex citing that a return engagement was immediately arranged for Thursday next at Camp Colt. Story of the caterwauling: KIWANIS R. H. O. A. E.

Blazing hot sun and lack of talent did not keep Sycamore from clean ing up yesterday at the playground track and held events at the island. War and its industry nearly elimi nated this very interesting athletic diversion of Harrisburg, and there were few seniors to compete. Hence, no new record and a very small held of competitors. Nevertheless, Sycamore made a name for itself by winning in all activities, running, jumping, vaulting. In the light weight class, which included all en tries under seventy-live pounds, the Sycamore outscored their opponents by a large margin. The going was a bit more closely contested in the middleweight classes but the Syca mores moved to the fore in each of these. When the final totals were taken, the Sycamores were credited with eighty-eight points, or in other words they piled up more points than all of the other playgrounds entered.

The .exhibition, which is held this week, is under the management of Grant Westhafer, and it is estimated that fully 25.000 people visited the grove yesterday. From daylight till dark, this famous picnic ground was the mecca for people from far and near.

Thousands of automobiles and teams were parked in fields and farmyards in the vicinity of the grove. South Market street, Mechan icsburg. which is the direct route from this locality, was filled by a steady stream of automobiles and vehicles going and coming the whole day. On the grounds were exhibitors of farming implements and machinery, automobiles and merchants. Red Cross booths flourished and the "tag gers" put in a bpsy day. A feature that attracted considerable attention was a miniature United States Bat tleship built around a kiddtekafl; by Dan Wheeler. 29 Nineteenth street, Harrisburg. A Red Cross box occu pied a prominent position on the ship and gathered in its quota of coin. At 2 o'clock. Red Cross members paraded with the New Cumberland and Logansville bands. The Girls' Milita.y Service Corps was also in line and a miniature float, contain ing United States hospital buildings, ambulances and battleships, presided over ,by. "Uncle Sam." Among the speakers were: Captain Frank Schwab, an English officer of the Royal Field Artillery, who be longed to Kitchener's "first one hun dred thousand, '*■ and saw the first gas attack launched by the Germans. He praised the wonderful work of the American soldiers and said the end of the war depenls on the people back home. "It is not patriotic," he asserted, "to support the Red Cross, but duty!" "The finest thing that ever happened, was when America came into the war—before that time England called you 'cousins,' but now, he declared, they all call you 'broth ers!"

PRISONER ESCAPES FROM JAIL Carlisle, Pa., Aug. 26.—Climbing over the wall while in the yard fdr exercise, Lewis Coffey, a Shlppens burg youth, awaiting transportation to the Huntingdon Reformatory es caped from the Cumberland county jail last evening and has not yet been located. He reached the top by crawling up on projections in the wall and is believed to have jumped from the top, A distance of about 25 feet Serves With Signal Corps ROBERT R. SIIULER Robert R. Shuler, son of Elmer Shuler, 334 Swatara street, has ar rived safely In France, according to word received here. He is a mem ber of the Signal Corps. When Tom Marshall Went "Jugging" on Mississippi "Jugging on the Mississippi river!" This is not a transgression of the prohibition laws, neither is it akin to "bootlegging.' This method of fish ing dates back to the advent of those Jesuit Fathers, who record the his toric fact of "Jugging" in their early writings. The Indians who made their homes along the Missis sippi, found a shortage—as usual— in jugg, there being an extreme scarcity of stoneware on the market. As a crude substitute the Indians secured from the buffalo, which at that time roamed the prairies, nu merous bladders, which they fleshed, I dried, inflated with air, tied with a deer sinew and then dried and smoked them until they much re sembled parchment. were then ready tf be utilized as floats during the annual fishing carnival.' which usually extended over a period of several days, and was made a con tinuous round of pleasure. Canoes were loaded with many warriors, na tive and visiting, an extended trip was made up the river, to a point which would require a given time to , float back to the established Indian village. At a given signal frbm the chief, all bladders with short lines and primitive hooks attached were thrown into the river, after having been baited with duck intestines, which are very seductive to catfish. A three or four-mile current floated them quietly along until the bait was assailed by a voracious channel cat fish. Having hooked himself, the bladder immediately disappeared be low the surface, there to remain un til the fish slacked away, at which time the bladder would bob to the surface, in the interim, being towed by the hooked fish very rapidly and pursued by the Indians in their canoes, the first to grasp the trav eling bladder to become owner of the fish, when landed. The duration of the race depended upon the size and the pep of the fish that was hooked. The floating arrival at the village was at all times followed by a free-for-all fish barbecue. Being conversant with the history of "Bladder Jugging," I was delight ed when my friends. E. J. Tobie and O. H. Lloyd, invited me to join them in a "Jngg fishing carnival," in which contest, half gallon jugs were sub stituted for buffalo bladders and the Ashing grounds between New Boston and Keithsburg. Illinois, on the Mis sissippi river, a distance of about seven miles. There was no wind to drift our jugs ashore, hence conditions were ideal. Before we had our full bat tery of jugs at work, we had a chal lenge from a six-pound catfish, who had attached himself to one of our Jugs and was splitting the water in a wild effort to escape, the jug would occasionally disappear, to soon appear upon the surface with a Jump. The oars were popping in. the i open oar locks, as we pursued the I traveling Jug, which we finally sepa rated from a nice silver colored cat fish. "There he goes," was the im mediate announcement, before we could rebate the hook, again the race was on for an exciting few minutes, the winning of the race meant an additional catfish for our live box. An occasional line would snag, turn ing in a most realistic false alarm as the Jug would disappear, but re appearing at the same spot told the story of a snagged line. Our catches were numerous, the innovation sport was great diversion in addition to being a real meat getter. The old Mississippi river the, original home of the sport of Jug-fishing. A diversion for fishermen not anglers. AUGUST 23, 1918. Tesreau and Plank in Red Cross Game At Cottage Hill Tomorrow Afternoon A great crowd is expected to travel to Cottage Hill to-morrow when Jeff Tesreau, renowned righthand pitch er is to face Eddie Plank, the nation's southpaw celebrity, in a game be tween Steelton and Bethlehem, the entire receipts of which go to the Red Cross. An hour before the call | of game, which begins at 2.30, the famous Steelton band will play gay airs to amuse the multitude. The Red Cross folk aro making preparations to take care of 5,000 spectators and ropes were stretched to-day along the side lines. Tickets are for sale to-day at Gor ges' drug store, Third street, and at Fairlamb's cigar store. As the pennant will go, in all prob ability, to Steelton, first, and then either to Bethlehem or AVilmington, this game should be highly exciting, for outside of that Plank and Tes reau will pitch their arms off to win. This will be the last game played at Cottage Hill by major league talent. George "Kid" Stutz will not be part of this fracas, for the "Kid" is now at Camp Meade. He was valu able to Steelton in many a pinch and he made a host of friends with his speed and eagerness to help. The Steelton management do not seem to be greatly alarmed at tho closeness of the race. They say that if Steelton wins one of the two games remaining in the schedule she will I get the flag. The Bethlehemites, how- | ever, do not take such a sure view of it. Says one writer: "While Steelton, league leaders, have a hold. on first place in the standing, every team in tho circuit with the exception of Fore River, has I ft chance of cutting down the Cockill! crew and win out in the final race | which comes to a close on September i 2. The lead enjoyed by Steelton is not as great as it seems when it is taken into consideration that team has more games to play to com plete the schedule of twenty games. . All. the other teams with the excep tion of fiethlehem and Sparrows Point have more contests to stage. Lebanon, second last in the league standing, has a chance to outstep the Steelton crowd. Due to postpone ments on account of weather and the protested game to be replayed, Lebanon has five more games to go to complete its schedule. A win in all these contests with two defeats for Steelton would place Lebanon in the league lead. "The chances for Wilmington ap pear the best, this team being only | one game behind the league leaders in the number of games lost and have one more game to play than Steelton. With a chance for all teams, the remaining contests will be hotly fought. The number of games to be played by each team during the re mainder of the season is as follows: Steelton, two; Wilmington, three: Bethlehem, two; Sparrows Point, two: Lebanon, five: Fore River, four. Eddie Plank worked yesterday, de feating the American Chain plant team at York, 6-0. Pierce and Ram sey also took part, so that Plank will be in form to pitch on Saturday.
