To-night will see the decisive
game of the season in the Allison
Ilill League, when Galahad and
Reading meet again for the cham
pionship honors. If Reading wins
it will mean the pennant. If Gala
had wins, they have a chance to tie
Reading for the lead.
Dewey Eisenberger will likely be
the tosser for Galahad. Ho recently
shut out Rosewood without a hit or
run. It would not be surprising
to see "Dutch" Conner on the mound
for Reading. He has been taking
a long rest since his 17-inning vic
tory over Duncannon last Saturday
in the Dauphin-rerry League. He
too is credited with a no-hit victory
in this league. It will be a pitcher's
battle. While odds favor these two
tossers, either manager may spring
a surprise, and trot out another
twirler.
Popular Twirler
No player in the live years of the
, Allison Hill League's existence has
made more friends than Clyde Mel
linger, the Reading twirler who was
P'' om oted to Klein Chocolate Com
pany team some time ago after set
ting the Hill League nlire with good
ball playing. "Melly" had nothing
to win and lots to lose in tossing
lor Reading against Galahad Tues
day night. But he was more than
master of the situation, and let
down Galahad with two hits. In
addition to being an athlete, he is
every inch a gentleman. Latest
rumor has it that Connie Mack has
had a scout looking after this lad.
If Galahad wins to-night, and
Rosewood repeats the trick against
v Reading to-morrow night, the season
will end in a tie. Rosewood has won
* four out of the last five contests
against Reading, and is the only
team that has held its own against
Manager Pressler's nine.
Galahad has played consistent
ball throughout the season, suffer
ing one slump about midway. The
players have been regular, and to
single out one or two players and
give them credit, would not be fair
to the other members. "Lefty"
Challenger will probably toss to
* morrow night.

Old Mr. Jinx loomed up last night
in the sixth inning in the game be
tween West End and Engineers and
Firemen. He picked the E-F's for
his victim and pulled off his trick suc
cesfully. West End won by a score
of 5 to 2. Just at a time when those
tailenders were showing speed and
holding down the pacemakers and
runners up, something had to hap
pen.
Connors was on the mound for the
Engine crew and had everything
necessary to win a game up to the
sixth inning. Errors in throwing put
this boy into the air and he was un
able to light in time to save the game.
His teammates wore with him until
that fatal period and they too fell In
a rut at intervals.
Strieker was the fling artist for the
leaders and it was just like him to
have the right curves at the right
time. Three measley hits were all
the cellar boys could muster and the
manner in which those champs stood
by Strieker gave the big crowd of
spectators something to talk about.

ond. McKeever drove a long sacri

May Pitch Mays Today in
Doubleheader With St.Louis
Now York, N. Y„ Aug. 7.—Carl
Mays will pitch for the Yankees,
probably to-day. 'A temporary in
junction was granted in a Federal
court which restrains Ban Johnson
from interfering with the affairs of
the New York American League
baseball team as far as Mays is con
cerned.
The first skirmish In the legal war
which is expected here to ou3t
Johnson as president of the league
was won by the battling colonels —
Ruppert and Huston. To-day's
schedule calls for a doubleheader
between the Yankees and St. Louis.
It is practically certain that Mays
will be sent in to pitch one of these
games. Whether or not the owners
of the St. Louis team will refuse to
play remains to be seen. Frank Nev
in, of the Detroit Club, yesterday
hinted that there might be a boy
cott against the Yankees by the
clubs controlled by Johnson.
The war will not end even if the
Yankees are conceded the victory m
the first skirmish. It may last all
summer. Nothing has been heard of
Ban Johnson since he left New
York. It is believed that he is now
in Chicago trying to enroll Charles
Comiskey, owner of the White Sox,
in the war against the Yankees.

Big Game on H. A. C. Field
Attracts Many Local Fans
Harrlsburg baseball fans had an
other big day to-day. It looked like
an Ideal baseball day and indica
tions pointed to another record
crowd at H. A. C. field. Johnny
Brackenridge's Klein Chocolate
Company team was scheduled for a
game with the Baltimore Dry Dock
crowd. Each team has won a game
and this afternoon's battle was for
blood.
On the Baltimore team were
Eddie Zimmerman, "Lefty" Russell,
Elliott, Curry and Bates, all well
known to local fans. The Klein
line-up Included: Hunter, cf; Crans
ton, 2b; Wrightstone, 3b; Kay, rf;
Brannen, ss; Kauffman, lb; Thomp
son, rf; Trout, c, and Harned, p.
With but few changes this is the
same line-up that gave the Phila
delphia Athletics a trouncing sev
eral weeks ago. One man, Thomp
son, is new. Bracken ridge secured
him from the Washington Ameri
cans some time ago.

'AUGUST 7,' 1919,
PATSY CLINE IS
AFTER LEONARD
Hopes to Finish the Champ in
Bout Monday Night at
Philadelphia
"Boys, I'm going to finish the job
that I started over a year ago," said
Irish Patsy Cline last night. "I had
Leonard out, standing up that time.
I'm going to finish him this time."
Cline had just finished a tough
day's work at Reddy Wigmorc'a
quarters in the "necks." Cline for
the first time in six months got un
der the 140-pound mark and was
strong. He expects to get down to
135 before Friday, then take it easy
and reach the 138-pound mark on
the day of the battle.
Cline and Leonard are due to
clash in one of the best lightweight
clashes of the year in the closing
number at the all-star show at the
Phillies ball' park, Philadelphia, on
Monday night.
These boys will not be the only
stars. Johnny Dundee and Joe Well
ing are due to hook and slash for
six rounds. Welling has the reach,
but Dundee the speed. Charley
White, the famous Chicago south
paw, will renew Quaker City ac
quaintances when he mingles with
Harry Pierce. A knockout win vir
tually will assure White a meeting
with the winner of the Cline-Leon
ard scrap. Eddie Morgan and
Johnny Mealy will also entertain.
