CUBS AND RED SOX IN SIXTH BATTLE AT BOSTON TODAY; VAST ACTIVITY AT TECH HIGH Pitcher Vaughn's Perfect Control Wins Fifth Game For Cubs More than 25,000 baseball en thusiasts waited one hour yesterday --for the fifth world series game to start at Boston while the big-leaguers of Cubs and Red Sox argued with the National Commission for a heavier share in the profits of the tourna ment. By a mere eyelash the most startling scandal ever attached to the game was avoided after the crowd had about reached the end of its patience. A tragic feature of the situation was the appearance of hundreds of wounded officers and soldiers, sur vivors of the Marne, many of whom were brought in on invalid chairs. The immense arena rose as one to cheer these heroes, and their echoes resounded to the room where the l>all players wrangled with Ban Johnson and Garry Hermann, tell ing such a tale of heroism that the big-leaguers instantly surrendered. Not only that, but Leslie Mann, Everett Scott, Bill Killefer and Harry Hooper hurled a bomb into the official camp by suggesting that the entire receipts of the series be, turned over to the Red Cross. Herr mann then informed the players that they had no right to dispose of the money until after the series had been decided, declaring that the other clubs interested would be in a position to bring suit for their shares. The first four games of tke series drew 88,551 persons and the players' share is $69,527.70. On the basis of the new plan of division which caused the strike each member of the winning team will receive $B9O and the losers each $535. In an nouncing their acceptance of this, which is the smallest ever paid in a world's series, the players declare they were not being fairly treated, but woultf submit rather than disap point the crowd. Players of teams finishing second in the respective leagues to get $15,469.51; those fin lishing third. $9281.95, and those fin ishing fourth, $6187.97. The fifth game of the series proved another stirring pitchers' battle, and big Jim Vaughn, who faced the Red Sox for the third time in one week, finally obtained his revenge, shutting out the American 'League pennant winners., The giant southpaw was good to-day, and Boston could do nothing with him. He has hurled three grand games against Boston, but to-day's was his best. He had speed and control and used every thing he learned about the Red Sox in his two previous efforts to prevent them from crossing the plate. Five hits were all the Sox could gather off his portside shoots and curves. In only three of the nine innnings did more than three batsmen face him, and only twice were the Sox able to get a runner as far as second base. In both of his previous games, passes to first proved fatal to Vaughn, but to-day he gave only one. This was issued to Jones in the third, and "Hippo" prevented further trouble by slipping the third strike over on Harry Hooper. In the first inning after Hooper had led off with a ■ and advanced on Shean's sac i-ntee, Vaughn fanned Strunk, and Cubs Comb the Red Sox CHICAGO NATIONALS Players— A.B. R. H. T.B. S.H. S.B. O. A. E.

Manager •Mitchell, of the Chicago National League club, said to-day that vic tory In yesterday's game had put new life into his men and they felt confident of winning this aft ernoon. He did not announce his pitcher for the next game, but said. "I may have to use a right hander." Chicago backers think Mitchell will sentl Lefty Tyler back if he shows lft is ready when the pitchers warm up before the game. Manager Barrow, of the Red Sox, he would use Mays or Bush on the mound to day. He is not worried about the final outcome of the series. "The Cubs,' win merely pro i iCiies," ho said. "We •crday, but things broke too well for Chi cago. We will win to-day with cither" Mays or Bush." WEDNESDAY EVENING, £LA_RJRISIITKG teuegrjlpxa SEPTEMBER 11, 1918. Plack made a spectacular running catch of Whiteman's foul fly close to the right-field fence. Aside from Vaughn's splendid pitching, the sensational fielding of the Cubs furnished the outstanding feature of the game. Behind the man who has gone to the firing liqe as often as any one pitcher in any world series, the National League representatives played as befitted pennant winners. For the first time in the series they made absolutely no blunders, mentally or physically. They outbatted and outplayed the Red Sox to-day and won the game strictly on its merits In the ninth inning Mann and Hollocher exe cuted iJays.which brought even the Boston Rootces U> their feet and fur nished the most thrilling moments of the day's battle. In recogaition of the good work he did in the clogiag weeks of the Agnc>< c an League • season, Manager Barrow decided td gave Young Sam Jones a chance to shine in a series game, .cmJy "two hits were registered hijm in five innings, and Chicagtrg'TTUi in the third was the result' oj a gtupid'play by Mo- Innis, Jones was hit hard in almost every inning, and it was only the brilliant defense given him by his teammates that held the Cubs to a Single tally ixt se\en innnings. In the eighth they-gauged his delivery to a nicety had tucked the game away.by'bunching three hits with a base on balls 'for two runs. Several tigges du*ag the game Barrow had reserve pitchers in the "bull pen" warming up, Mays, Pertica and Dubuc taking turns, but each time some bit of fine fielding saved Jones and he was allowed to stay on the mound until the Cubs finally landed their knockout punch. The Red Sox never got fairly started against Vaughn. After the openings offered in the first and third, Strunk got the first real hit off the Cubs' southpaw, a ripping dou ble to the far corner of right field. , In trying to sacrifice, Whiteman | bunted a fly to Merkle, ai)d a mo-, mcnt later Strunk and Mclnnis were victims of a double play on the hit and-run, when "Stuffy" lined to Merkle. Thomas singled with one out jr. the fifth, but Agnew hit into a double play, and the same thing happened In the seventh, after Whiteman had hit safely with one} out. Schang batted for Agnew with two out in the eighth and fanned. | Miller was sent up to bat for Jones in the ninth and made good j with a terrific drive to left field, but! Mann started with the crack of the bat and raced up the incline that| banks the fence. He turned as lie. reached the top and the ball settled in his hands as he slipped down on his haunches. It was one of the most spectacular plays of the series and was wildly cheered by the crowd. The fans were still cheering when Hollocher raced almost to the foul line and captured Hooper's short fly. The Cub shorstop juggled Shean's ir.field hit, but Vaughn ended the game by getting Strunk on h. strikes for the second time in the game. j GET "KI\VAXIS BOOSTER" th . e cou, "tesy of Paul V. n ; ( 'u r , (tary of the Klwanis Club of Altoona, a number of the Harrisburg clubmembers have receiv whiS£ Pi t 8 of the "Kiwanis Booster" W i\ B ., ret -'entlv published as a special edition of the Altoona Times ihe supplement contains manv in teresting articles.

Whalen, of Bu chanan Valley, formerly of this city, has just received the following very interesting letter from his brother overseas: "Your letter arrived. As you know, that made me happy. 'Tis my delight when mail time comes to find your letter. Fritz and Hans have been making it pretty mean for us with their planes. Their shells don't worry me, but the plane bombs are like' hell bustin' up. They shake the earth. I don't mind the Huns shooting at men that can walk and run. but the poor wounded fellows in the hospitals catch it ha-rd. If the infernal Boche would only let the hospitals alone, we'd forgive him much, but when he picks out and picks on our helpless pals, it makes a fellow feel like walk ing. on the face of every Fritz he sees. "We're back resting now. You wouldn't fancy there was a war going on to see our fellows playing base ball. Such a happy bunch! Go at It. as we did the scrub games at home. Nobody loves the umpire. He's the Hun of the field. Maybe he doesn't get his. 'Fat head! Pin head!" is what's handed him. "Don't let anyone tell you the Yanks ain't got the guts. They're master with nerve, bayonet and rifle. Nearly every Hun we looked at was shot through the head. "Our regiment—and the cock crew —did wonderful work in the battle of the Marne. We made it as hot for the Hun in this world as we hope he'll have it in the next! Gee, to see the flower of the Crown Prince's army wilt! I wish you were here to listen to the racket.

A faculty meet ing was also scheduled for this aft ernoon. Professors J. W. Campbell and A. B. Walllze, teachers of junior Eng- Jlsh, have outlined the course of work for the third year students. In connection with the senior, junior and sophomore composition, the students of those three classes will study some of the articles, from a literary standpoint that occur in several of the leading periodicals. The large number of reed and brass instrument players in /the or chestra will form the nucleus of a band that is proposed for the Tech nical High school.

The enrollment by classes is: Freshmen, 382: sopho more, 286; junior, 119; senior, 81. "Fat" Lauster is the first Technical High school football player to be placed on the Maroon casualty list of wounded. Scarcely had the prac tice begun last evening when Laus ter sprained his left ankle and re tired from the contest. It is not thought that the injury is serious and Coach Smith expects to have the services of the corpulent Fred in a day or two. Lauster made the team his first year at Teoh and is one of the dependables on the line. The Maroon warriors practiced for two hours last evening under the watchful eye of Coach Smith. Earl Philippelli was given a place on the line after the withdrawal of Laus ter. "Phil" is a junior and played part of the last two years. Parental objection was the cause of his dis continuance of the gridiron game. The team started with "Bill" Hoerner at quarter, Wilsbach at full back, while Ebner and Beck were at the halves. Later Lingle was placed at half and Captain Ebner was shift ed to quarterback. Three teams were running through signals with sub stitutes for each squad. Beck, Wils bach and Ebner punted to the other candidates who practiced starting with the pigskin. The candidates were also given a taste of tackling. By the end of the week it is more than likely that the players will be getting down to real work and scrim mages will be the regular night's work. j three balls, against Louis Kreuter; his high run in exhibition on a 4%x9 table at Schenectady regis-! | tered 238.

Ho you wonder me nightcap doesn't fit! And then I made a three-base hit the next day. "I don't know when we'll go back to the front. It may be any day. No one knows, but watch for a big battle.

Crosß this morning issued a request to all who are working on knitted ar : tides for that branch of the organiza tion, to make a special effort to re -1 turn the articles they have knitted during this week. The large number of men leaving the citv for service during the last week made such a drain on the supply of sweaters and knitted goods that the Naval Aux iliary is In need of stock to replenish Its supplies. Sweaters and hammocks especially needed, it was said to day. LOCAL SHOTS AT WESTY HOGANS Great Trouney at Atlantic City Draws Marksmen From All Parts of the Country The annual Westy Hogan trap shooting tournament at Atlantic City began yesterday and Harrisburg is represented along with the rest of the country, for this shoot attracts the high guns and low guns from all over Uncle Sam's dominions.

Captured Mail Shows Poor German Morale With the British Army In France, Sept. 11. Some idea of the state of the German morale may be had from the following quotations picked at random from captured documents and letters. One German wrote home but he did not get a chance to post the letter—as follows: "I have been in the line for four teen weeks. Johann is well looked after. I wish I, too. was a prisoner of war" Another letter reads: "When we retired, two Alsatians remained behind. If they had only said they were going to desert, many more would have stayed with them." One message says: "Our men are completely exhausted and can hardly stund upright." Another says: "The men cannot keep their eyes open owing to strain and fatigue. They must have relief." Still another soldier writes: "We hear that the Bavarians and Saxons no longer wish to fight. How is It going to end?" Captured orders indicate that the German air service lis befing well combed out. and that airplane mech anicians, much to their disgust, are being drafted into the infantry. MANUFACTURERS' COUNCIL TO MEET THURSDAY The Manufacturers' Council of the Harrisburg Chamber of Commerce will meet in the offices of the Cham ber to-morrow evening at 8 o'clock.

RAILROAD RUMBLES INSTRUCTIONS FORP.R.R.MEN Middle Division Head Tells How Registration Troubles May Be Avoided J. C. Johnson, superintendent of the Middle Division of the Pennsylvania Railroad, has issued instructions to the employes of the division who are subject to draft for military service, pointing out how they may arrange for registration if obliged to be absent on registration day.
