BATTLING FOOTBALL AT ISLAND TOMORROW WHEN TECH PLAYS QUAKER CHAMPIONS Baseball Will Come Into Its Own, Says Ileydler Baseball, with the rest of the world. Is to witness the dawn of a new era. t And the hour of Its dawning will ' be the hour of the opening of the annual National League meeting in New Y'ork December 10. "When the shutdown of the great national game came last September its future was hidden in the dark clouds of war. But now that peace has come, the things which interested people be fore the war will again come into their own. Many changes will doubtless be made in the way the sport is- run, as the money-grabbing propensities of some of the players and mag nates were disgusting the fans. The return of former baseball stars to the game is a question. Their strenuous experiences in the uniform of Uncle 6am may have unfitted them for their former places. The $50,000 idol of the Chicago fans, Grover Alexander, may find that, carrying a rifle and a pack in France has destroyed hjs usefulness as.ji pitcher. Jack Barry, star second baseman of the Red Sox, may discover that life as a gob has unfitted him for the diamofid. And the list might be continued] at length, for almost 5a per cent, of the major league ball players are in the service of their country, as: the records show. But while the war may have re- | TECH HUNGRY TO MEET FOE Neither Team in Tomorrow's Island Contest Has Met Defeat This Year One of the largest crowds of the season is expected over on the Island to-morrow afternoon when the Ma roon football squad will oppose the team representing Williamson Trade School of Philadelphia. It will be the sixth contest played by Tech, and will likely be the sixth victory. To date. Tech has not lost a contest, nor lias the goal line been crossed. The visitors, too, have been fortunate in not losing a contest. But Indications are that they will have their record broken following their visit to this city. Many football fans are planning to see the game to-morrow afternoon In order to get a line on the Tech team for Thanksgiving, and at the same time the contest will serve to whet the appetites of many of the others. It is likely that the re serves will aslo play. The probable of the two teams will be: TECH. WILLIAMSON Emanuel, 1. e. Heebner, 1. e. (Bell) Reed. 1. t. Arnold, 1. t. Yocum, 1. g. Pelfer, 1. g.

Baseball teams without number have been formed In both the array and navy. The game has been played within rangtvof the German guns. Many young men who never had a chance to play have found themselves with a bat in their hands.

ACADEMY RIVALS MEET TOMORROW Gettysburg and Harrisburg Academies to Fight For Ball on Local Field The annual scrimmage between two old-time gridiron rivals, Gettys burg Academy and Harrisburg Acad emy, will be pulled oft to-morrow afternoon on the home team's field, the battle starting at 2.3U o'clock. Both sides are more eager than ever to carry oft the ball since last year, at the close of the last half, the tally stood 0-0. There has always been intense rivalry between the teams. Judging from the victories of this season to the credit of the Gettys burg Academy, the team carried is a strong one. The pigskin warriors at.the local academy are punting the ball daily in an earnest effort to climb all over the battlefield chaps. The local team is handicapped by the loss of two players, Captain Eng land, who was hurt last Saturday, and Loose, who was Injured two weeks ago. Loose-is improved and it is probable he will be in the game. Rose come back again and will take England's place as fullback.

CENTRAL HIGH NOTES Announcement has been made by Prof. Severance that the sessions will not changfe on Monday, as previously announced, but will change the Monday following the Thanksgiving vacation. At a con ference between Proft Severunce and Dr. Fager it was decided that the first semester be extended two weeks. Both principals agreed that such subjects as trigonometry which are dropped at the end of the first semester, should not lose the whole five weeks lost during the epi demic The conjunction of this new plan with the one to- add ten per cont to dally assignments will make it possible for all work to' be made up The periods for reports und for change of session# will be eight weeks instead of six. At the suggestion of Major Stlne, who has charge of the military in struction at Central, three students were picked from the Tanks to act as assistant drill-maste's to the men sent from the HarrlsDurg Reserves. George Pulas, Carl 3toner and Rob. en Crist were chosen and will be am 1 their duties at the drill on Mon day. The H. A. Society will hold Its PLAYERS CARRY CASES TO COURT Daubcrt and Trucsdalc Not Satisfied With Decisions of the Commission Second Baseman Jack Daubert. of Brooklyn, is gone to be the only ball player with an ironclad contract to enter a courtroom for his pound of flesh. He announces that he has en gaged lawyers and will sue for the final five weeks' pay on a contract on which he has collected $9,000 per an. num for five years—and that, too, in spite of the fact that In two of the five years he gave the Brooklyn club very poor service. It will be remem bered that Daubert first appealed to the National commission, which de nied the appeal on the ground that the Brooklyn club's obligation had become null and void as a result of conditions over which it had no con trol. In hjs civil suit, Daubert will take •the ground that the government did not order the Brooklyn club to cease operations before October 15, and that plenty of players were avail able for carrying on the pennant races to that date. He intends fur ther to show that the Brooklyn club closed on Labor Day of its own ac cord to avoid possible losses, and not on account of a desiVe to yield to the wishes of the War Department. We do not believe that this plea will have any more weight with the court tlyin it had with the National Commission, and that it will be non suited. In that event, Daubert will stand discredited before the public and the profession as a player who has permitted his selfish greed to overstep alb bounds of self-respect and even of common decency. v Tmcsdale Sues Boston Second Baseman Frank Truesdale, who was released by the Boston American League club last summer in midseason, has gone into court with an action against that club in Brooklyn, where he lives, his attor neys being Kohler and Higgins, the latter of whom is an ex-baseball man. The action was begun to re cover $640, which the player claipis was due him on his unfulfilled con tract. Truesdale signed with his Red Sox last spring, receiving a written guarantee from Manager Barrow that he would draw $2,120 for the season. On the first of August, Trues, dale was transferred to the Jersey City j, club, which disbanded on Sep tember 2 on the wind-up of the In ternational League race. Truesdale received all but $642 in salary, which he alleges is owed to him by Mag nate'Frazee on the ground that he was signed "for the season" and not for the period between April 15 and Labor Day. This, too, is a suit based on a technicality and we believe will share the fate of Daubert's protec tion suit. last initiation on Monday night. Five new members will be taken in at the home of Alton Smith, Cam eron Extension.

Sev eral Psalms were read in Latin. Everyone enjoyed the scene front "Cfcero" with Bertha Maurer, 'lB, as Cataline, and Helen Appelby, 'lB, as Cicero. Dr. Severance was present at the meeting und was warm in his praise of the manner in which the society was conducted. The next meeting will be the "Feast of the Saturnalia," Decem ber 17, at the home of Miss Alary Lewis, 1501 Swatgra street. Junior Girls Make Merry The C. A. B.

COLLEGE RIVALS CLASH SATURDAY Buckncll and Susquehanna, Gridiron Foes, to Meet at Sunbury The Bucknell eleven are rounding I into fine form for the football game at Sunbury, next Paturday, with their nearby rivals, Susquehanna. For the last few years these two teams have been evenly matched, | with the games resulting in close! scores. 1 Both teams are showing up strong this year, so it is certain that u hotly contested game will take place. The two teams will have a large following of rooters, and a band from each school will liven up the atternoon with some good military music. The S. A. T. C. units of the re spective schools will engage in com petitive drill on the athletic field which should draw a large crowd of those interested in military drill. The military formations and move ments will give a good idea oif the splendid work being accomplished by the S. A. T. C. units. Bucknell has run up 169 points I to its opponent's nothing so far and hus won all five of its games. Miske vs. Dempsey to Be Thanksgiving Bill in Phila. I Evidently Billy Miske believes ! that he still has a chance to whip l Jack Dempsey, for he has been matched to fight*the one-punch on Thanksgiving Day at the Olympia in Philadelphia. George Engle, the new match maker of the club, has paired them for the Quakertown annual, and if they put up anything like their St. Paul runypus then there is going to be some tall old fur flying. Dempsey, as a matter of fact, ran across his first real tartar when he | fought the St. Paul perpetual mo | tion machine in the latter's home town some months ago. Reports of that tight told how each man in, turn was tottering and on the point of knocking out. They went ten rounds and at the end neither was able to tell how he arrived there. And, strange to say, no two men who saw the fight could agree on a winner.

Miske has been charged with evading Dempsey, but on several occasions he stated that he would be willing to meet the hard-hitting one in a return bout. There lire so few men left as likely foes of Dempsey that the day may come when he may regret having side-tracked the dusky demons. With Miske, Meehan and Fulton left, where, oh, where will Jack the giant killer lind marks for his thuhips? INVITE SECRETARIES BAKER AND DANIELS TO SEE GAME Herbert L.
