    TECH'S BIC SCHEDULE WITH BASEBALL AT HANOVER AND MERCERSBURG; TRACK MEET
Baseball Friday and Track Meet
Saturday Is the Tech Schedule
Coach DeWire announced the list
of twenty athletes who will accom
pany the Tech team to Mercersburg
Ipaturday morning to compete in the
afternoon against the Academy
team of that place. Included in thl
list will be Captain Beck. "Zip" Ma
lick, Hoffsommer, "Red" Poland,
"Bill" Keane, "Boots" Shue. "Corks"
Kbert, "Ken" Boyer. "Loot" Heagy,
Blair Hefkin, Strawhecker Shader.
"Bill" Harris, Dunklcberger, "Tony"
AVilsbach and Garrett.
While Mercersburg will be the
hardest proposition that Tech has
over run against, it would not be
surprising to see Tech win the meet.
AROUND THE BASES
"Family affair," is the way Read
ing speaks of its baseball entrance'
into the International League, al
though every one has a chance to buy
stock. Mayor Filbert was llrst to
start the movement and organize the
Reading Baseball Association. J.
'turner Moore, of the Heading Cast
ing Company, is president for the
time. Charles T. Miley, big chief in
the Rotary Club, is secretary. Invit
ing the public to subscribe will make
the game wonderfully popular, it is
believed. There had been much talk
heard to the effect that only a few
were to be in on the good things oi
baseball this season, and it was de
cided that an opportunity would be
given to everybody to subscribe any
amount, from $lO up. By this plan,
instead of having (25,000 backing, the
Reading club will likely be substan
tiated to the tune of (40.000 to (00.000.

West Enil A. C. Must Move
I.ancnster. Fa . April 17.—The new
"West End Athletic, flub, that for sev
eral months has been revolutionizing
the boxing game here has been forced
to seek new quarters, the manage
ment of the theater in which they
have been staging their shows has
called on them to move, and to-day
thev are without a home.
The result is a rather hard blow to
the club. From the start it has been
operated on the co-operative plan,
with boxer and promoter sharing
alike. Boxers and managers control
4be club. Tt is believed they will be
al-lc to find new quarters.

Stop Silly Talk
and Buy Coal
Unless the consumer uses his
coal bin this Summer for storing
next Winter's supply, he is eith
er going to have to pay a higher
price for his coal or not be able
to get all he wants at any price.
It is to be hoped that all this
senseless talk about profiteering
in coal would stop and the pub
lic would see the coal situation
in its true light.
If anything is perfectly clear
it is that coal cannot get any
cheaper for a long time to come.
It is equally clear that coal next
Fall will at least cost 50c a ton
more than now. Fill your bins.

Ixmdon, April 17.—While opin
ions are divided regarding the sub
j stance of the address of Premier
| Lloyd George before the House of
I Commons yesterday, the London
Press generally agrees that it was
a great parliamentary triumph. Ex
cepting the laborite and Northcliffe
newspapers, none of the morning
journals condemns the Premier's
statement wholly while several

j that Mr. Lloyd George revealed
j nothing of tho peace terms, but they
I do not complain.

LEMOYXE WIN'S FIRST GAME
Lemoyne is out for plenty of base
ball this season and the first battle
found the Lemoyne Juniors in good
shape, for they walloped the White
Hill A. C. 11-2. on the latter's field.
Center Fielder Beistline, of Lemoyne,
was a stone wall, gobbling every
drive over second base, making it im
possible for the home team to get a
man on that sack. The pitching was
classy considering that it rained
through part of the game. J. L. H.
Zimmerman, is manager of this
winning club and wants to hook up
wit)* any team of its caliber.

VIENNA IS MUCH
CHANGED BY WAR
Prices Are High, Life Is Dull,
and Commodities Are
Very Scarce
Vienna, Austria.—After 4>i years"
war, Vienna has lost much of her old
charms. Once amongst the cleanest,
brightest, and most attractive cities
in all Europe, the Austrain capital is
now dirty, dingy, and depressing. The
prevailing gloom is intensified by the
closing of all stores at 4 o'clock, in
order to save heating and light. Caf-s
and restaurants remain open until S
or 9, but the street-car service stops
at 8 o'clock. But as a matter of fact,
the real active life of the city ceases
very soon after 4.
Cabs are not as scace as a few
weeks ago, but their fares are still
exorbitant. Legally, the drivers are
permitted to charge three to four
times the sum registered by the taxi
meter, but as a rule they do not hesi
tate to demand double or treble this
rate. All the hotels are crowded, and
guests are glad to get a bathroom to
sleep in. But even the best establish
ments appear extremely shabby com-,
pared with peace times. There is no
soap for cleaning purposes, and no]
material for the repair of broken .tr-,
tides of furniture. Notwithstanding
these deficiencies the landlords nay
laised their prices enormously, both
for rooms and food.
Hotels Exorbitant
First-class hotels, on the
strasse. such as the Bristol and Im
perial, have instituted a uniform tabb
d'hote at 22 crowns a head. Brio bill
of fare includes a small portion of
soup, one meat dish with two vege
tables, and a very small portion of
sweets. Apart from the small quant
ity supplies, the quality of the food is
far from satisfying, as it Is
without any proper fats, and thecon
sequence is that the guest leaves t ie
table almost as hungry as when no
sat down. At Pacher's, one of the
most famous dining resorts in Europe,
excellent food can still be had that h.
if the price, is no object. It is quite
easy to pav 155 crowns for a com
parutively simple meal there.
Like the hotels, the cafes .and n
taurants are always crowded. Look
ing at the well-dressed people, it is
difficult to imagine there 1
any war. and still more diiTuiilt to
believe that it has ended in the total
breaking up of the proud, aristocratic
monarchy of Austria-Hungary.
the people who frequent the
aide restaurants and safes never talk
of the war. One hears scraps of con
versation about last nights opera or
theater, the extravagant c o ® l
clothes, but more than anything else
of the alarming cost and scarcity of
food. Oddly enough, some of the for
merly commonest articles of food are
now the hardest to get. At sach "']
the guest can obtain no bread, even
with the most urgent entreaties hut
he can be served with all the palats
chinken" lie desires, though this fa
vorite Vienna dish—a glorified Pan
cake filled with jam—requires the
finest white flour. The consequence
is that visitors in the best hotels and
restaurants come to table witn tn°\r
own supply of bread. Butter again
is almost unattainable, except for the
war profiteers and other rich people,
it costs round about 50 crowns a
pound, and more often over 60 crowns.
This is something like twenty-five
times peace prices. As for milk, there
is simply none, that is for ordinary
persons, no matter how much one -o
willing to pay.
Imperial Palace nosed
The disappearance of the monarchy
with all its pomp and show has done
much to dull the social life of Vienna.
No more do the idlers gather in the
great courtyard of the Hofburg to
see the dally changing of the guard
at 1 o'clock and perhaps catch a
glimpse of the Emperor, or some one
of the imperial family at the palace
windows. The gloomy, but impres
sive Hofburg is shut up, and the thor
oughfare through Its outer and inner
courts from the Ringstrasse to the
Kohlmarkt, which has been open to
rich and poor on foot or in vehicles
of anv kind, day and night for gen
erations, is now entirely closed. The
Hapsbuigs were not half so exclusive
a-, the present democratic rulers of
German-Austria, and they were cer
tainly much more considerate of the
welfare of the citizens, who now have
to make a detour of half a mile at
least to get from the Ringstrasse to
the center of the city.
But if the gay life in the fashion
able districts of the capital shows lit
tle traces of the war, the suburbs tell
a very different story. Lieutenant-
Colonel Summerhayes. the first Brit
ish officer to enter Vienna after the
war. told a representative of The
Christian Sicence Monitor that the
condition of the poorest classes was
indescribable. The colonel said he
had never seen such abject misery as
in Vienna at the present time. The
official allowance of coal is only 40
pounds a week, whilst the supply of
gas is equally restricted. The amount
allowed, in fact, furnishes light for
five hours a day, which leaves noth
ing for cooking. Consequently people
who can get no coal, and there are
many such, if they use gas for cook
ing have to go to bed as soon as
darkness sets in. Indeed, a responsible
official in one of the largest Vienna
hanks told a representative of The
Christian Science Monitor that he and
his family were obliged to go to bed
at 1 o'clock every evening. It seeins
well-nigh impossible to believe that
such conditions can exist in what was
once one of the gayest capitals in
Europe.

there was some consternation in

Cap. Clouser walked off with a

STATE NEEDS A
BOXING BOARD
Billy Hocap Points Out Dan
ger of Bing Sport Being
Ruined by Managers
William H. Rocap, sporting editor
•n Philadelphia, and an able author
ity on all athletics, but especially on
boxing, is ruthlessly exposing trick
ery ol' tlic ring and calling for a
State bureau to take hold of the
manly art. Rocap lays the cards on
the tabe, face up. He maintains:
"Two men in Philadelphia closely
identified with the boxing game have j
placed themselves on record as he- |
ing opposed to clean sports. Harry |
D. Kdwards, president and manager j
of Olympia, and George Engel, the
matchmaker of the club, are the
duo. As Engel is merely a catspaw
of the other, Edwards must be re
garded as the one mainly respon
sible for allowing a New England
manager who lias besmirched the
sport to be dumped on Philadelphia.
No language is strong enough to
condemn a man of the caliber of
Ray Cass, manager of Frankie Britt.
He was the trusted matchmaker of
several New England clubs. Recent
ly Eddie Morgan, of this city, a for- ;
liier featherweight champion of j
England, was billed to box in Low- j
ell, Mass. A rank substitute was |
sent by a Philadelphian. Cass was
in on the deal. He confessed that.
When rounded up he refused to di
vulge the name of the man whom |
he was in collusion with. Lowell j
business men are after Cass, and
he has virtually been blacklisted by
the New England clubs."
Rocap then relates how Cass j
begged for a "private" talk with j
him and how he declined, and pro- j
ceeded immediately to acquaint the |
public with what was going on. Says
he:
"Promoters and managers
throughout the east were implored
for the sake of the sport, to let men
ol' the Cass type take a rest. Any
man who would play unfair to those
in his own locality, who would vir
tually take money under false pre
tenses, is not fit to be connected
with any sport. And the manager,
promoter or matchmaker who per
sists in forcing such parasites on
boxing fans are in the same class.
Philadelphia boxing fans are be
ing insulted by the confessed fakir
being jammed down their throats.
Are they going to stand for it? Have
they lost all spirit of manhood?
Don't they intend to resent it? If
Pennsylvania had a boxing com
mission, Edwards, Cass and the en
lire brood would be quickly punish
ed. They would be driven from the
game.
"Will the police authorities stand
for Philadelphia sports being im
posed upon? If a crook of any sort
was to come to this city and his visit
was known in advance, he would be
given so many hours to leave or be
locked up. Ray Cass, of New
England, should be given the gate.
"It is hoped that Philadelphia
boxing fans will resent to the limit
I the forcing of this latest incubus
I down their throats."
