Enginemen and Firemen of the
| West End Twilight Leagifb suffered
from an overdose of drops last eve
ning and went to sleep. Motive
Power romped away with the game,
8 to 0. This victory means some
thing. Last night's victors are a
few points mearer the leaders and
West End is a trifle nervous just
now. Frank Hart was the boy who
had the "hope drops" last evening,
while his teammates were full of
ginger. Two measley hits were all
the Enginemen and Firemen could
count.
"Moe" Eveler came back in the
game and was on the mound for
the Railroaders. He was touched
up lightly to the seventh inning
when those Motive Power sticks
got busy and before the last man
was out one-half dozen runners had
crossed the plate. Eveler's support
was off color at times. The game
had the record crowd of specta
tors on edge. Rooters were busy
for both teams but those Motive
Power fellows had loads of noise
and handed it out in great style.
Motive Power Has Chance
The victory means much for Mo
tive Power. West End plays the
Commonwealth Travelers this eve
ning. The latter has been show
ing form and has given notice to
** other teams that they will bo in
A evidence until the close of the sea
-1 son. West End has six games to
play, two of them with Motive Pow-
er. The first is scheduled for Tues
day evening, and the second on Sep
tember 5. Should the leaders lose
these two and win four there would
be a tie up. One thing is certain,
every team in the West End League
will play real baseball and local
fans may expect some real thrills.
Motive Power is out to winfive
games straight. The game to-night
promises to be an important factor.

THURSDAY EVENING,
OUIMET WINNER
OVER CHIC EVANS
Brilliant Work Features Final
Golf Match at Pittsburgh
Yesterday
Pittsburgh, Aug. 21. Francis
Ouimet demonstrated again yestei
ray that he is one of the greatest
golfers ever developed in this country
by defeating Chick Evans 1 up on the
home hole at the Oakmont Country
Club in the second round of the an
nual amateur championship tourna
ment. Playing the game with the
same stroke and gave him
international fame when he
won the national open from Ray
and Vandon. England's most famous
professionals, the Woodland Club
representative, piaytng from Au
burndale, Mass., fought throughout
the entire day against the skill and
stamina of the Edgewood Club star,
of Chicago, and eventually achieved
victory with a marvelous niblick
pitch from the pit to the home green
and a three-foot putt which required
perfect nerve control in the most
crucial moment of the entire 36
holes of play.
Rrll limit Playing
His defeat of the amateur and'
open champion hold-over since 1916
came only after hours of golfing
competition, which was the closest
and most brilliant ever witnessed in
a similar titular tournament. All
even at the end of the forenoon 18
holes, the Eastern and Western
rivals renewed their golfing duel in
the afternoon, and for a short period
it appeared as though Ouimet was
to quickly clutch the contest, but he
weakened at the end of the third
nine holes, and Evans was quick to
take advantage of the opportunity \
and, after being three down at one
time, succeeded in squaring the j
match at the thirty-fourth green. '
The next was halved in threes.
The gallery, one of the largest that;
ever witnessed a midweek match in ]
this country, was absolutely silent i
notwithstanding the intense strain of I
the contest, as the pair teed up for j
the home hole play. Evans drove
first and Ouimet followed, both
reached far down in the fairway
with long shots. Ouimet's second
landed in a deep pit to the right of
the green, while Evans was just on
the edge of the rough, some 4 0 feet
from the pin. When Ouimet stepped
down into the pit he was out of
sight of a large part of the spectat
ors and a great shout of applause
involuntarily sprang from the gal
lery when he pitched the ball from
a cloud of sand to within four feet
of the flag.
Thrilling '-Periods
Evans' mashie shot was a triflo
strong and the ball rolled fully 12
feet past the cup. The double title
holder sighted the lay of the green
for almost a minute before he putt
ed, but the strain was too great for
him, to do himself full justice and
he fell short of the hole by three
feet. Ouimet followed immediately
with a gentle tap of his ball, which
rolled liesurely to tho lip of the cup,
paused for the fraction of a second
and then dropped out of sight, thus
terminating cno of the most remark
able matches in the history of Ameri
can golf. .
Not all the glory of the day's golf
goes to Ouimet, for the manner in
which Evans fought and forced the
victory is shown by the fact that
there was but a difference of one
hole and one stroke at the end of j
one of the hardest matches ever'
played in an amateur championship.
Ouimet finished with a total stroke
score of 150 and Evans 151, while
the medal-winning score on Monday
was 158.

Lieutenant Gerdes Writes 1
of Trip Through Russia
Lieutenant Paul W. Gerdes, ord
nance Corps, U. S. A., writes inter
estingly to his mother of a trip
through Russia as a guard on a
train of Red Cross supplies. His
mother, Mrs. B. J. Gerdes, 129
Sylvan Terrace, received the letter
a few days ago.
The leter is dated Omsk, July 3,
and speaks of a twenty-three-day
trip from Vladivostock to that city.
Enroute Lieutenant Gerdes passed
through Ekaterinburg, the city
where the Czar and royal family
were murdered. This city is also the
place where one can get the beauti
ful Ural stones and the lieutenant
expressed the hope that he would
be able to obtain some before com
ing home.
His description of the pitiful
condition in which the millions of
refugees from the Bolsheviki are
living is most interesting, and he
fails to see how they can get
through the winter without fearful
suffering. The work of the Red
Cross Is strongly commended in
this letter.

UP-TO-DATE SOLDIER
Chairman Baruch, of the War In
dustry Board, said at a Washington
banquet:
"I was brought up to consider that
It was impossible for a soldier to
carry an umbrella. A soldier with an
umbrella seemed ns absurd to me as
a soldier with a fan.
"Well, the other day In a deluge of
rain, I beheld a soldier, a big um
brella over him, stepping along brisk
ly. I stopped my car and said:
"'Young man, this Is the first time
I ever saw a soldier with an umbrella.,
"Well, boss.' he answered, "may
be it's ihe first time you ever saw
a real, live, up-to-date soldier."

BIG COMMITTEE
PLANS KIPONA
Charles R. Beckley Heads List
of Hustlers For Water
Carnival
That the Labor Day Kipona is go
ing to be a breath-taking affair is
not to be doubted when one scans
the list of the committee, which is
going to bo responsible for the big
party. Charles R. Beckley is the
I chairman and he has a bunch of
i hustling committeemen to second
I his efforts.
The floats of the evening proccs-
I sion of boats alone are enough to
I bring the crowds from all parts of
[ the city to the water front the
I night of September 1, and they will
i tie many and varied. In addition to
the hundreds of canoes which will
j dot the water with myriad colored
lanterns, the larger floats will be
passed In review with more preten
-1 tious decorations. And they will be
I Of all sorts and descriptions.
One enthusiastic Kiponaite has
announced his intention of bringing
out liis little pet giraffe on a float;
same giraffe to lie a large figure
I which will wag its head and tail
and wink its eyes in a mpst flirta
tious manner. Many other persons
have said that they will put on some
stunt of the same sort so that the
procession will more nearly resem
ble the Mardi Gras of New Orleans
fame than anything else.
Announcement will soon lie made
how entries are to be registered for
the water contests in the afternoon.
The old familiar and popular canoe
tilting will hold sway again this
l year .when the doughty knights of
the paddle ana staff will ijltempt to
joust each other into the Susque
hanna in the most approved King
arthurian style.

"The boys are eating your green

"That's all right," said the farmer.
"Let them eat all they want. It will
