Wednesday—Galahad vs. Rosewood. Thursday—Galahad vs. Reading. Friday—Reading vs. Rosewood. Monday—St. Mary's vs. Galahad. Only six more contests remain in the Allison Hill League to determine the champions of the Hill district, and while the standing of Rosewood and St. Mary's cannot be changed, the fight lies between Galahad and Read ing for the pennant These two nines will meet twice this week, on Tues day and Thursday nights. When the two leading teams clash Tuesday and Thursday evenings, the largest crowds of the year will be on hand. Both aggregations have large followings who will be there, to lend a hand to the cheering for their fav orites. Just one and one half games separate the two leaders. Three Hard Lames Reading has three hard games, against Rosewood and Galahad. If Reading can win one game against Galahad, the best the latter team can do is tie with the railway team. This would make a postseason series nec essary. Last year Reading and Rose wood were tied for the honors at the close of the regular schedule and played off an extra series. "Dutch" Conner surely has earned for himself the name of "iron man." Friday night he twirled seven in nings for Reading Railways against Galahad, and Saturday afternoon lie pitched and wone a seventeen-inning game for Newport at Duncannon In the Dauphin-Perry League. Duncannon bunched three hits and a brace of runs in the second inning. For the next 15 innings Duncannon did not cross of the plate.

Marysville-Millersburg, 2 games postponed. In one of tho longest, best-played and most sensational games of the 'seasoh. Newport Won out from Dun cannon in 17 innings on Saturday on the Duncannon field by a 6 to 2 score. Both Connors, on tho mound for New port and Strieker, hurling for Dun cannon, went the full route. The game was full of thrills throughout. Neither team scored af ter the sixth inning, when Newport tallied a single run and deadlocked the score. Several good opportunities to score were lost, but gilt-edged pitching and air-tight support pre vented any further runs being pushed across the platter until the fatal sev enteenth. " Nawport and runners on second and third several times with but one man out, but in each instance Strieker tightened up and managed to stave off any run getting. Strieker Fulls on Squeeze Failing to get the signal for the squeeze play in the sixteenth, Striek er himself, lost a good opportunity to pull the game out of fire for Duncan non. Leading off in the sixteenth with a single, he was sacrificed to second by Waltz and stole third. With one out. the signal for the squeeze play was given and De Haven laid down a perfect bunt. Strieker had not gotten the signal and had but a short lead off and was an easy out at the plate. The outstanding features of the games was the high class hurling of Strieker and Connors, with the latter having a slight edge. He managed to keep the eight hits gathered by Duncannon, scattered well through out the seventeen Innings of play and was seldom in trouble. He whiffed 15 steel town lads and Issued but one free pass. Strieker was slightly be hind in strike outs, having an even 13, but was inclined to be a trifle wilder, issuing four paaaes. Seven teen hits were collected from his de- i livery. Veteran Features Several exhibitions of high class I fielding thrilled the audience during ! the game. Old "Pi" Hunter, who : played ball long before most of his i teammates and opponents were born, playing the last part of the game in ' right field, brought the crowd to its I feet by a sensational running catch i along the foul line in the tenth in- | ning. Rush, Newport's third sacker, made a sensational stop of a hard drive over the sack on a drive by Strieker and saved some trouble for Connors. Kepner did some class fielding while Shreffler featured with his stock work. H. Wagner and Doner each had triples, both of which were re sponsible for runs. 11.
