Newport won over Marysville on
the home grounds Saturday, in an
eleven-inning game, score 8 to 7.
It was a real baseball game. New
port proved a little slow on the
bases while Marysvlllo got more
' from their hits than did Newport.
H. Wagner's homerun was a feature
I of the game while tl\£ had inning
for Mower was disastrous for Marys
* ville. The easuulty list was large
as Keller was wounded severely by
a foul ball hitting him on the knee
cap and Rutter having his eye al
most closed by a bad bound of a
ball from Herman.
Duncannon handed Port Royal
the small end of an 8 to 6 score in
the same afternoon. Fisher was In
form for the winners.
Both teams hit the ball. Port
Royal made their hits count and
fielded a great game in pinches.
Battle at Nc\vix>rt
In the tirst inning at Newport,
, Moore singled and was sacrificed to
second by Rutter. Herman got out j
at first advancing Moore to third, I
from where he scored when Ellen
berger singled. Keller retired the
side by being out at first.
In the second, Marysville piled up
three more. Biever and Steese were
out when Mower singled and went
to third when Clcndenin singled.
Moore connected with the ball and
owing to a bad peg by Rush to
first he made second when Mower
scored and Clendenin arrived on
third. Rutter then placed a nice
two-bagger into center and scored
Clendenin and Moore. Herman re
tired the side by being out at first.
Marysville's fourth run was gotten
„ in the fourth inning in this manner:
Mower was walked, made second
when Clendenin sacrificed, third
When Moore was out at first and
came home on a wild pitch. Rutter
was walked but was caught stealing
second for the third out.
For the first three innings New
port could not produce anything
that looked favorable to winning the
game. In the first and third in
nings, there were only three men
each time faced Mower while in the
third Kepner placed the first hit and
died at first when Connor flew to
center, this inning having only four
men face him. But the fourth was
' the Waterloo for Marysville. With
five hits, one of which was a double,
a base on balls and hit by pitcher,
Newport piled up six runs in this
rotation: N. Wagner got out at first;
Doner singled and went to second
when H. Wagner singled.
Fill Up the Bases
Rush singled, scoring Doner and
placing H. Wagner on third. Rush
stole second after which Kepner
was walked loading the bases
with only one out. Connor comes
up with a two-bagger and score H.
Wagner and Rush, and puts Kepner
on third. Rutter spills the beans
again when he fumbles one from
' Swartz, allowing Kepner to score
and Conllor to go to third. Kearns
got hit, again loading the bases, as
i Swartz went to second on throw-in.
Gutshall comes along with a nice
single to left which scored Connor
and Swartz. Thus six runs were
scored and nine men had now
batted this inning, which was ended
with third and second occupied
when N. Wagner and Doner got out
In succession. Alter that strikefest
one would think a new man would
be put on the mound, but Mower
"came back" and did not allow a

j JOE BARRETT TO
HAVE BIG SHOW
Veteran Promoter Is Arrang
ing Good Bill For
Stcelton
Joe Barrett, the veteran boxing pro
moter, of Steelton, announced to-dny
that he is making arrangements to
hold his opening show of the season I
on Wednesdry night, September 3.
He is now arranging what he says is
the best card ever presented in this
section. It is a surety that Johnny
Gill, the York boxer, whom Barrett
is managing, and claims the middle
weight thampionship of the South,
and this section of Pennsylvania, by
his victory over Herman Miller, who
formerly ueld the title, will be seen
in the star event.
Gill fought all the important bat
tles overseas with the One Hundred
end Ninth Machine Gun Battalion, of J
the Twenty-eighth Division, and* af- |
ter the armistice was signed he met i
all comers without defeat.
Name Opponent l.ntcr
Just whom Gill meet has not been |
decided as yet, but Barrett says he :
has a number of letters from boxers |
who want a crack at Gill, and his op
ponent will be announced within a
day or so.
Another Twenty-eighth Division j
boy who will be on the card is George
Silar, who is a mate of Gill's and
served with the line hundred Twelfth
Infantry. A tough opponent is also
being sought for Silar on the opening
carl. The great number cf requests
from Steelton sports who enjoyed
Barrett's shows last season, prompted
Barrett to start several weeks ear
lier than he had intended.
Barrett's intentions arc to open an
\ip-to-date boxing school in the steel
town, and those wishing to join his
school should now get in touch with
1 Joe. Address Steelton, Pa., or a per
sonal interview. He will be able to
take care of at least 100 pupils of all
weights.
Brantingham Boys Shut
Out Frick Aggregation
NVn.vnenboro, Pa., Aug. IS.—-Nowhere
has there been better ball playing
than right here in Waynesboro
during the entire season by members
of the International League, which is
composed of players working in the
large industrial plants here. The
games have been nip and tuck all j
along and it has been anybody's game
until the last man at the bat was
culled out in the ninth inning. The
E- B. Company won Saturday, score
1 to 0.
It. was the third 1-0 game of the
year, but the duel between Herrell. a
native of Baltimore, and MeCleary,
broke all former records. But live hits
were made during the game, three by
the winners. Kmerson-Rrantingliam,
and two by the. loser, l-'rick Company.

I
i 1,266 of Regular Establish
ments Have Resigned
Commissions
Washington, Aug. 18. Since
the armistice was signed the War
Department has accepted the resig- j
I nations of nearly 1,300 officers of the j
Regular Army, and it is known that I
a large number of other resignations |
are now being considered, while
scores of other officers of the regu
lar establishment, who have not tiled
resignations, are known to be de
sirous of leaving the service. In l
July alone there were about 160 |
resignations accepted, more than I
twice as many officers as resigned j
in the entire ten years immediately :
prior to this country's entry into the j
war in 1917.
The situation created as a result I
of the wholesale resignations of of
! fleers, most of them junior officers I
I —the very backbone of the regular
i establishment is so serious that
I General March, the Chief of' Staff,
I instructed the Morale Division of the
| General Sta/f to make a complete
! and thorough investigation. The
| results of that investigation were
| filed this morning with Major Gen.
I William G. Haan, the Chief of the
I Plans Division of the General Staff,
I who immediately transmitted it to
I General March.
The investigation shows that the
enormous increase in the cost of liv
ing is in the main responsible for
the great loss in officer personnel.
In the great majority of the cases
of younger officers the pay received
is less than that now given to un
skilled laborers. Furthermore, these
officers of the Regular Army, prac
tically all of whom served with in
creased rank during the war, are
now being demoted, and up to to
day 861 have reverted to their former
grades, with a corresponding reduc
tion in pay. It. is pointed out that
with their demotion their pay reverts
to the scale of 1908.

qualified in Saturday's 18-hole round,
but present Indications are that he
will be unable to play further. Phy

the direct result of his illness at New-

After shooting one under par go

his game faded noticeably, and after
competing the twelfth hole he told
friends he was becoming weak and
did net believe he could finish. How
