But one mis- Play was made during the entire fray. Books led at the bat while Rabbit Zerance was the star afield.

Strieker, one of the greatest near-great baseball pitchers in the country, hypnotized a couple thou sand fans at the West End Twi light League grounds last evening, and also put the jinx on Common wealth, who did well to~"Ticore three runs to West End's six. This Striek er phenom used to work in old Chambersburg; he had a tryout with Connie Mack and in 1917 he pitched Newport to a pennant in the Dauphin-Perry. He comes within an ace of being a nationally famous twirler. He squeezed Commonwealth down to four hits last evening, his spit ter being in fine control. Common wealth put up a battle all the way, leading in the score up to the fourth. In the fifth West End tal lied a brace on successive hits. The victory was decided in the seventh with two more runs, and the huge crowd had the best run of the sea son. The hitting of Fields, Evans, Le van, McKeever and Wriglitstone featured the game, the latter hav ing a four-base clout to his credit. The score: WEST END AB. R. H. O. A. E. T.

JjngHH nUk fIH Jggnß^H BBBBKM Dr. B. F. Roller, famous wrestling doctor, will meet Tommy Draak, Belgian Netherlands mat champion, to-night in a grapple to the finish at catch-as-catch-can style of wrest ling in the Chestnut Street Audi torium. Draak arrived in Harrisburg yes terday in the pink of condition and Roller is due here early this after noon from New York. Both men will weight in singside within a few pounds of the other and the youth and strength of Draak will counter balance the experience and clever ness of Roller. So the match will be as even a one as could be de sired. The two famous grapplers have not met in a ring since the New York State tournament in 1916 when they wrestled to a two hour draw. Since that meeting there are those who will claim that Roller has been side-stepping Draak, but the doctor vigorously refutes these claims. He asserts that he has nev er side-stepped Draak or any other wrestler and that he is anxious to enter the ring with his opponent to night. Draak has been doing them right and left for the past several years and has rapidly grown into one of the foremost wrestlers of the day. At least he is the cleverest mat artist that the European coun tries have ever turned over to America. A fifteen-minute preliminary will bo staged prior to the star event in which Julius Kamsky and "Ed" Fair. Tech athletes, will meet. This match will begin at 8.30 o'clock sharp and the main struggle will not get under way until 9.15.

Ladies are invited ,to see the card to-night as well as the gentlemen, for wrestling is a sport that appeals to both sexes. In a letter to Promoter Baumann, Draak states that he is anxious to meet Madras, who has challenged the winner of the match to-night. It is possible that Baumann may arrange that match for this city in the very close future. The ring to-night will be placed in the center of the auditorium in stead of on the stage as It was last Saturday night This will give a bet ter view to the spectators from all angles of the house.

Good Roads X and Good Gasoline "They shall not pass" was a noble resolve against an unscrupulous oppressor; but it is an expensive slogan for the nation's highways. Acting on this belief, the Pennsylvania legis lature recently passed a measure authorizing the expenditure of fifty million dollars for road-building and improvement. \ Good roads and Atlantic Gasoline—there's a combination that spells maximum efficiency in truck and passenger-car operation. For there's terrific energy in every drop of Atlantic Gasoline. Tremendous power—more power than you need for the hills and more than you will care to use on the straightaways. Use Atlantic Gasoline in your trucks and passenger-cars. Take figures off your gasoline bill and put them on your speedometer where they show to better advantage.
