Ribs Broken When Tarsus Trims
Carson Long in Fast Rough Game
The Tarsus School of Gymnastics
football team steamrollered over
the Carson Long Institute eleven
in a game played at New Bloom

not forced to punt once during the
entire game. Downey full back, of
the Tarsus team received a bad cut
into the bone, above the eye, on the
first play of the game. Captain
Meek of the Tarsus team was forced
to quit with only three minutes to
play when he received a wrenched
knee. Pazzaro, Carson Long's full
back received several broken ribs
when he was tackled by three men
at once.
Mautier kicked off to Fetrow who
ran the bail back thirty yards be
fore being tackled. On a fake kick
formation Lick ran around right
end for thirty yards, bringing the
ball to the twenty yard line. Tar
sus was penalized for offside. Car
son Long then held Tarsus for
downs. Mautier made five yards
around left end. Swartz was thrown
for a five yard loss. Lick then in
tercepted a forward pass which was
thrown by Atticks and ran twenty
vards for a touchdown. Fetrow
kicked the goal. For the rest of the
quarter the ball was held in midfield.
Score, Tarsus 7. Carson Long 0.

KALBFUS NAILS LIES OF
DEMOCRATIC OPPONENT OF
"DRY" LEGISLATIVE NOMINEES
Dr. Kalbfus, Secretary of the State
Game Commissioner, in a statement I
issued to-day rebuked in no uncer- ;
tain terms the cowardly efforts of i
Democratic politicans to injure the j
two ,- dry" Democratic candidates for j
the Legislature in Cumberland j
county. The statement follows: I
"To whom it may concern: My at- j
tention has just been called to a!
statement in circular form issued j
over the signature of R. E. Shearer, <
of Carlisle, and published in the Har- j
risburg Evening News on Saturday, |
November 2, 1918, that is so far fetch- j
ed and foolish that were it not for
the fact that some harm might come
to another than myself 1 would not
waste time or paper in attempting
to reply. As it is, Wm. C. Bowman I
and Ross L. Beckley, as candidates j
for the Legislature on the Republican i
ticket in Cumberland county may be
hurt by Mr. Shearer's falsehoods, ,
therefore this letter.
"We all understand the character j
of the man who tries to injure his |
fellow-man through false statements
issued during the last hours of a |
political campaign, and too late, as he '■
thinks, for a reply from the other l
side; a practice so offensive and nau- j
seating to most men that decent men, j
figuratively speaking, hold their noses [
as they go past the place where such j
things originate. 1 need not dwell ]
upon this phase of the question, but
will get right down to facts.
False, Says Kalbfus
"Mr. Shearer says in this circular
that I, Joseph Kalbfus, promised him
that 85 per cent, of the moneys col
lected through the Resident Hunters'
License should be used for the pur
chase of game. 1 want to say plainly
that no such conversation ever took i
place. What right or power did ij
possess to make a promise that was [
directly contrary to tlie provisions of I
the bill itself, which in" Section 12]
provides specifically the purposes to i
which the moneys thus collected shall !
be applied. In this particular the j
Act provides the moneys collected
because- of its provisions shall be de
posited in the State Treasury to be j
held as 'a fund separate and apart, |
solely for the purposes of wild bird i
and game protection, and for the I
purchase and propagation of game !
under the direction of the Board of ;
Game Commissioners, and the pay- !
ment of bounties under the provi- j
sions of law. The several purposes
to which the fund, so received by the
State Treasurer, shall be applied, to
be clearly designated by an act of
the Legislature, either in the general
appropriation act or by separate ap
propriation for the payment of boun
ties. It being specifically provided
that fifty per centum of any fund
returned to the state through or be
cause of the provisions of this act,
or so much of saHd fifty per centum
as may be needed, shall be applied
by the Legislature at its biennial
sessions to the payment of bounties.'
"Arguments before the committees
of both Senate and House were strict
ly along these lines, yet according
to Mr. Shearer I assured him these
provisions would not be complied with
and he, brilliant business man he is
supposed to be, believed such a state
ment. In the face of this record it
seems to me those who may read both
sides of this controversy must con
clude that Mr. Shearer must be a
plain fool to have believed such a
statement, as he says I made, or he
has lied about the matter. I assert
no such statement was made or could
have been made. The purposes to
which the moneys collected through
the Resident Hunters' License Act
1 are specifically provided for by the
| Act and I need not dwell further upon
I that phase of the question,' except to
; say that the provisions of the Act
' and of the appropriation bills under
the Act have been strictly complied
with by this office, and I am surely
proud of the record we have made.
Shearer's Attitude
"Mr. Shearer, with others who op
posed the passage of this bill, was
perfectly willing to have game and
wild birds protected and 'purchased
and fed, and to have bounties paid,
but wanted the cash necessary to
Beck and Bihl Star For Tech
in Victory Over
' Messrs Beck and Bihl, pastmasters
of the art of football, hustled the
pigskin orb across the goal line of
the Aviation boys at Middletown on
Saturday for a total of 24 points, ably
helped by others of the Tech team,
while the flying cloud busters could
not so much as score. Beck was on
the right side of the whitewash three
times and Bihl landed there once,
and the general behavior of Tech
again demonstrated that it plays this
game like Pagannini used to play a
flddle and loves it like a harvest hand
eating green corn on the cob.
Captain Ebert was not among those
present, being handcuffed with a sore
tendon, but "Buddy" Llngle was back
on the Job, noticeably. The Aviators
are handled by Lieutenant Ralph
Bloomer who played with Yale in
1904. He knows the pastime from A
to Z and will very likely develop a
crack company, though the season is
very short now.
Three of the touchdowns on Sat
urday were made in the first and one
In the last. The flrst score resulted
In a forward pass from Wllsbach to
Beck. Becky caught the pass be
yond the goal line and downed It for
tlx points. Ills second touchdown
HARRISBtTRG TELEGRAPH
these ends to come from some other
source than that provided by the bill.
They wanted a big state appropria
tion. 1 heard one of these gentle
men say before the Game Committee
of the House that the Legislature
had just as much right to make an
appropriation to the benefit of hunt
ers as it had to appropriate moneys
to public schools. The Legislature
thought schools, and hospitals, and
good roads, and charities should be
considered before sport, hence the
Act. Mr. Shearer on more than one
occasion has expressed to me the
thought that a bounty should be paid
for the killing of crows and hawks,
meaning, of course, to have the bill
paid by the other fellow. He was
and is so fixed in his desire to destroy
hawks that only a few days ago I was
compelled to write him to be careful
not to kill protected birds, that in
a newspaper article he said were mi
grating along the North Mountain in !
Cumberland county, and offered in
said article to guide hunters to places
where they could- shoot these birds.
We have twelve species of hawks in
Pennsylvania, two which are pro
tected. Mr. Shearer also called spe
cial attention to the presence of bald
eagles in the same locality and that
these birds made excellent targets,
apparently forgetting that the eagle
is absolutely protected in Pennsyl
vania.
"Bnlcl-Faeeil Falsehood"
"Mr. Shearer says Wm. C. Bowman
is the candidate of the Game Com- I
mission. I do not believe there is
more than possibly one member of
the Game Commission, John M. Phil
lips. of Pittsburgh, who ever met or
spoke to Mr. Bowman, or who has
heard he was a candidate. In so
far as I am concerned, I say without
fear of successful contradiction that
Mr. Bowman was a candidate for
weeks before I learned that he
thought of such a thing. I was real
ly out of the city when Mr. Bowman
announced his determination and I
had not even heard of the matter be
fore that time. I do not know Mr.
Beckley, and never saw him that 1
know of. so Mr. > Shearer's claim in
this respect is a bald-faced falsehood.
"Mr. Shearer says representatives
of the Game Commission are spend
ing the sportsmen's money running
up and down the state doing political
work. Poor Shearer perhaps knows
his own disposition to handle trusts
in this way, and thinks others are
built along the same lines. If Mr.
Shearer knows of one instance of this
kind 1 would be glad to have him
give me the facts concerning it. I. of
course, do not know what truth there
may be in that part of his statement
regarding what Mr. Bowman may
have said to him, but 1 do know that
if his statements regarding Mr. Bow
man are no more truthful than are
those made concerning me there is
nothing at all to it. The adage that
' a liar in one thing a liar in all'
holds good every time, and the same
applies to deceit. The one who tries
to deceive in one thing will deceive
in other things If he can.
Nulls Shearer Again
"Let us look at Mi. Shearer's state
ment regarding the expenditure of
this money in question. He says but
7 per cent, of the moneys received
from tho Resident Hunters' License
Act have been spent for game, .and
intimates the rest was squandered.
That is surely the idea he intends to
I convey. Mr. Shearer pq,aks of a new
Game Commission. There is no new
Game Commission; this is the same
Commission created at the instance
of sportsmen away back in 1895, but
this is deceit No. 1. Again, he adds
the collections made for each year.
Including 1917, whereas as a busi
nessman, If he knows anything, he
must 'know that the greater part of
this fund collected in 1917 must still
be in the State. Treasury, as it is. The
statement as made was supposed to
cover the purpose, and is deceit No.
2. Again, when he stated through in
ference that the Game Commission
had not complied with the law re
garding reports to the Governor he
made another misstatement deliberate
and wilful, for we have never failed
came when he zig-zagged thirty yards
through the whole Aviation team. He
took the ball over for the third time
on a straight line buck. Bihl scored
after blocking a kick at center. He
picked up the oval and lugged It over
the line.

to make this report since the commis
sion was created. These reports are
published by order of the Governor
and not by the Game Commission.
Our tiles show that these reports were
published as far back as 1902. Again,
he attempts to deceive the farmer by
having him believe that this Resi
dent Hunters' License is taking
money from his. the farmer's pocket,
when the law specifically provides
that the farmer and members of his
family who live upon and cultivate
that land may hunt without a license
on such land and lands adjacent
thereto. Mr. Shearer surely does not
credit the farmer as possessed of
much wisdom, and thinks he is easily
deceived.
"Again, Mr. Shearer's effort to con
nect the Game Commission with a
Fishing License and a Cat License
shows the character of the man who
tries to do this. He knows the Game
Commission has nothing to do with
the fishing interests of the state, and
he must know if he knows anything
that I as secretary of the Game Com
mission have persistently opposed a
license on cats, because at this time
there is no property value to a cat,
and such animal may be killed at
will, whereas a license might make
the' cat personal property and its
killing cause trouble. Poor Shearer;
he is sorely pressed for a reason to
justify his position before the pub
lic, although he surely has one for
himself. Let us look at the deceit
; in his figures.
"We will accept the figures as given 1
by Mr. Shearer both as to the moneys
collected each year, also the amount I
paid out for game. Let us look at ]
the remainder of the claim. The law |
provides that an amount not to ex
ceed one-half of the moneys derived
through the Resident Hunters' Li
cense Act shall be, if necessary, used
for uie payment of bounties, and. this
has been done, and a reference to the
bounty records will show that the
great majority of those claiming
bounties were country people, many I
of them paying no license at all. Our ,
records show that from the moneys I
collected during 1913, 1914 and 1915, |
$274,724.97 had been paid up to No- j
vember 30th, 1917, and a number of
thousands of dollars in addition to
this amount, the exact figui°s of
which I am unable to give because
the olflce of the Auditor General Is
closedf at this writing, all of which
was paid from these funds to coun
ties, the law at that time providing
that the County Commissioners shall
pay the bounty and in turn be reim
bursed by the state from this Resi
dent Hunters' License fund. In 1915,
1916 and 1917 we paid through this
olflce up to the end of November, 1917,
$149,720.83. and from December 1,
1917, up to the end of September,
1918, we have paid $55,959.33, or a
total of $205,679.16 paid in bounties
through this olflce, making a grand
total of more than a half million
dollars t$500,000) that has gone back
to the country boys for the killing
of vermin, paid to them too from a
fund to which the majority of them
have not contributed one cent.
"On the other hand, since the pas
sage of this Act we have expended
thousands of dollars in feeding game,
we have created twenty-four game
1 preserves at an expense of at least
| one thousand dollars ($1,000) each,
and maintained them, we have pur
[ chased game per our published re
ports referred to by Mr. Shearer, ag
gregating thousands of dollars; we
have employed and paid the salaries
and actual expenses of game protec
tors during the time this Act has
been in force per our published re
ports filed with the Governor and
j available for distribution upon re
! quest. In addition to the above we
■ still have in the State Treasury a
I balance to our credit aggregating
[ hundreds of thousands of dollars, the
] exact figures of which we are unable
j to give because that office is closed
| at this writing, this fund being avail
able for future use. Now what do you
think of Shearer and his attempt to
1 deceive? And why has he done this?
In my opinion because he fears the
! game protector and the identifying
I tag with its number on his arm. When
he goes hunting under the present
law the farmer can easily without
quarreling with a hunter secure his
number and prosecute him at leisure
for damage dorfe, or for trespass. The
game protector can easily find the
man bearing a number reported to
us; violators do not like this system
that guarantees to farmers for noth
ing a protection that can be secured
in no other way for any amount of
I money.
"Some years ago complaint came to
our olflce that a real estate man of
Carlisle and a coach of the Indian
football team at the Carlisle Indian-
School had been shooting quail on
Sunday contrary to law. Joseph Ber
rier, now deceased, investigated the
charges and up to a certain point was
satisfied he could convict these violat
ors. He was directed to prosecute;
then'the witness for some reason re
fused to testify, and that ended the
matter. No arrest was made, but the
call was too closo for comfort.
Protection For Farmers
"I know of several men who think
the farmer Is not entitled to the pro
tection aicorded by this Resident
Hunters' License Law. and who feel
that game protectors are too plenti
ful and too thoroughly on the job. I
wonder if the two candidates from
Cumberland county joined by Mr.
Shearer in his circular, Mr. Beistllne
and Mr. Barner, stand ready to say
point-blank to the farmer, 'We pro
pose to take from the books a bill
that without price guarantees protec
tion to you from hunters. We pro
pose to take from you the bounty now
offered for the killing of noxious ani
mals, and paid from a fund to which
you. unless you go off .your own lands
or Immediately adjacent lands, do not
contribute one cent. The force that
protects your best friends, the song
and insectivorous birds, that make
your crops possible, and toward the
protection of which yo pay nothing,
we propose to strike wfrfrn,' I wonder
if they stand ready to say to truel
sportsmen. 'We propose to strike ,
down the force that sustains the laws '
lor game protection that you placed
on the statute books of this state.' I ; (
wonder if these two men are willing;
to have the general public understand
they intend to do*what they can to
kill the work of game and wild bird
protection, unless the cost for same is
paid for by general taxation, for that
is just what this circular proposes to
do, so that Mr. Shearer may hunt
without fear of arrest, and without
being compelled to contribute to the
fund that provides him with pleasure,
that even makes it possible for him
to live here, for one dollar ($1.00) a
year. Shame, shame on the man with
a soul small erough to permit him to
even think of such a thing. He who
attempts to deceive his neighbor fre
quently fools himself.
"Mr. Shearer apparently stands
ready to do anything to secure poli
tical advantage and levels his shafts
leven at men unable to defend them
selves because of'sickness. You are
welcome, Mr. SheArer, to any glad
feeling that may come to you through
this effort. We surely do not envy
you the character you display.
"Respectfully yours,
"JOSEPH KAL.BFUS,
"Secretary, Game Commission."

mind. With this end in view. Mr
Harder lias devoted many hours dur

plays for the engagembent of the
Myrkle-iiarder Company. It is safe
to say that in normal times it would
have been impossible to secure such
a line of plays, but the owners and
authors of these plays are doing
everything in their power to do their
bit In this great strife and battle for
freedom and have generously released
their plays for stock productions. In
tlie list of plays secured by Mr. Harder
there will be found some that are still
