Leonard Outpoints Cline
in All-Star Windup
Philadelphia, Aug. 12. Results
in the all-star boxing contests last
night at Philadelphia ball park
were:
Benny Leonard, of New York,
outfought Irish Patsy Cline, also of I
New York, all the way in six rounds.
Johnny Dundee, of New York,
beat Joe Welling, of Chicago, In a
bout that went six torrid rounds.
Charlie White, of Chicago, out
j classed Harry Pierce, the Brooklyn
veteran, in every one of the six
rounds.
Johnny Mealy, of Philadelphia, hv
a strong finish outpointed Eddie
Morgan, also of this city, in the sec
ond bout, which went six rounds.
Joe Benjamin, the Frisco light
weight. won five of the six rounds in
the opening bout with A 1 Thompson,
of Cincinnati.
Benny Leonard again proved him
self the lightweight of the world.
The bout was tame in spots, as
Cline was on the defensive in the
early rounds. In the fifth he seem
ed to get some ginger and cut loose.
For the moment he the aggres
sor and made Leonard increase his
pace. He had caught the champion
with a left hook, which landed too ,
high to do much damage. It made
Leonard wince and his right eye !
watered. Beyond that, it did no
damage. It did, however, cause
Leonard to let out a link, and he
proceeded to give Cline the best he
j had in shop. A series of left jabs
kept sending Cline's head back, and
the latter seemed unable either to
block, parry or avoid the straight
blows which were sent across with
unerring judgment. Cline took these
blows without wincing. He came
back for more, and he got it.

When the Motive Power team |
finished last evening's game with the j
Engineers and Firemen, the latter j
I looked like they had passed through i
a wreck similar to those on the!
Middle division within the past week, j
The score was 9 to 1. Of course
there was a reason.
The Motive Power had an easyi
job, but these boys were in the game,
for there is no telling just what will j
happen in a West End League game i
The E. and F. team was crippled.'
Some of the regulars did not show i
up and those who reported for duty'
played out of position. Though one
sided the game had thrills and was
full of interest.
Bamiorcl in Form
Bamford pitched for the victors
and had a few things that counted.
He did not have to extend himself
a whole lot and saved several other
puzzling curves for another time.
Back of him was a lightning fielding
bunch, and the M-P's also hit. G.
Ford was on the mound for the
Engine Crew and he pitched good
ball until the fifth inning when he
| showed a weakness. Lack of team
work back of him figured in some
of the runs.
The Enginemen scored first. Wag
ner fanned and Attlcks filed out to
Brown. Bennett singled and went to
second on a passed ball by Hippen
steel. Bell singled and went to
second on Garverich's error, scoring
Bennett. Darr filed out to Garverich.
The Motive Power team came back
with a run in its half of the fourth
when Garverich opened up ■with a
home run to deep right field.
Two For Motive Power
! Two more were added in the fifth
j Eberly reached first on Rote's error
:at third. Bamford beat out an in
field hit. Etter flied out to Wagner.
I MoCtirdy forced out Eberly at third J
| and Brown followed with a single.
; scoring Bamford. Garverich drove a !
fly to Darr, who dropped the ball j
and MeCurdy scored. Hippensteel 1
i fiied out to Wagner.
■ On five hits, including a two hag
-1 ger, and a bad throw by Bote, Mo
| tive Power scored four runs in the
sixth.
| In the seventh two more crossed
j the plate for Motive Power when
| Hippensteel opened up with a single
.and took second on Wingard's had!
! throw. Stewart filed out to Attieks.
! Weaver hit for a circuit of the bases
| scoring Hippensteel ahead of him.
I Eberly struck out. which was the
i first and only strikeout credited to
i T'ord. and Bamford ended the inning
I by grounding out, second to first.

POST SEASON SERIES TO BE
WITH REGULAR BALL TEAMS;
NO PICKED TEAMS ALLOWED
Manager John Ilrackenridge an
nounced to-day that in playing
' games with local teams he would not
deal with any but regular teams and
regular managers. This statement
came as a result of an announce
ment yesterday that a team had
been picked to play against the
Klein team, the players to be se
lected from the local league teams.
Manager Brackenridge said:
"1 have already arranged with
the officials of both the West End
Twilight League and the Allison
Hill League for games with the
champion winners in each organi
zation. If there is to be a selec
tion of a team from the two leagues
to play the Klein Chocolate Com
pany Team, it will have to be done
by league officials." In addition to
this statement from Manager Brack
enridge the following is from the
president of the West End League:
West End Speaks
"In reference to the item appear
ing in the Harrisburg Patriot, Mon
day morlng, relative to picking of
a ball team of .various players in the
West End Twilight Baseball League
to meet and contest any team, prin-
I eipally the Klein Chocolate Com
; pany's team or any club in the Dau
; phin-Perry League, or in fact any
; other team, this is to advise that all
players in the West End Twilight
League have signified their willing
ness to contract themselves to the
various individual teams in said
! league and are in no way interested

"BOBBY"CLARK
"Bibby" Clark, of Newport, well
known in local amateur and semi
professional baseball circles, has
been signed by Manager Tris Speak
er, of the Cleveland Americans, and
is now with that team in its east
ern swing around the junior league.
Clark was signed up as a pitcher
by Speaker in Boston last week after
doing sensational work all season
with the Lewiston, Me., team of one
of the many New England minov
organizations. He earned the repu
tation of being one of the league's
most dependable hurlers, his records
comparing favorably with the hurl
ers with the strongest teams.
Played With Lewiston
Clark originally went to Lewis
ton as a first sacker, but when he
get there and it was learned thai,
j he could pitch, he was given a try
out on the mound. Since then no
! had been taking his turn on the
j mound and has won a greater part
of hie games, many of the..i
through his own hitting.
Ciark last season was a member
of the Steelton team of the Beth
lehem Steel League and played with
various teams in the several leagues
of the city. For several seasons he
covered the initial sack with the
Duncannon team of the Dauphin-
I Perry League and during the first
season that circuit was in existence
played in the outfield with New
port. He was given a tryout in the
infield with the Heading Interna
tionals earlier this year, but did not
last. He was at one time a student
at Susquehanna University, Selins
grove.

League are scheduled to meet the
Klein Chocolate Company's club on

of three games will be played with

not be discriminating against tiny

Will Give Notice
"The picking of an all-star team
from the West End Twilight League
has been very much avoided by
the league officials during tho past
part of the season for tho same rea
sons that they aro refuting the
statement published in tho Patriot,
they knowing full well that the pick,
ing of an all-star team would cause
dissatisfaction, create discord and
destroy the harmony which has
made the West End Twilight Lea
gue a success and should there bo
any team picked of star players
from the various clubs In the league
to play any game, samo will be done
by the officials and managers of
the individual clubs represented in
said league and the publio will be
notified through the various Harris

Less frequent Carbureter Adjustments
WhenYbu Use Atlantic
>
Atlantic Gasoline is uniform. It has a range of performance
that equalizes the humid air of the lowlands; the cold, dry air of the
higher altitudes; the sultry atmosphere of Summer; and the chisel-y
m\kThftW°m blasts of Winter.
Once your carbureter is set for the season, you need not change
it. The range of Atlantic will more than take care of the varying
driving-conditions.
And this is not merely a figment of the imagination, either.
Atlantic Gasoline actually does compensate for the irregularities of
climate and temperature.
Use Atlantic Gasoline and banish the carbureter-nuisance. Use
it all season and see.

Connie Mack Lands Some
Promising Young Stars
Philadelphia, Aug. 12. Two
weeks spent in the bushes by Con
nie Mack has netted the Athletics a
whole crate of future big leagues.
Mack returned from his tour yes
terday and announced that he had
bought pitcher Rommel, of the
Newark International League, and
hurler Zinn, of Waco, Texas, the
sensation of the Texas League. Both
men are right handers and are to
report to the Athletics on Labor
Day. Zinn is the man the Phils
gave a trial two years ago, but

Then after September 10 nearly

Club is coming here for a trial,
Mack said that ho had secured the
pick of this club, and that about
seven or eight of the players would
start to drop in at Shlbo Park next
month for a looking over.
No word has been heard from Joe
Dugan, who hopped the club last
week and the team will likely go
West without the shortstop. Mack
said he had not communicated with
him and did not know what the
trouble was. Strunk will bo able to
play against the Browns in St.
