WEST END TO
PI.AY MOTIVE POWER
On West End Field, Fourtli
and Seneca streets this evening
will be fought an important base
ball battle. West End, leaders In
the race will play Motive Power,
runners up. The game starts at
6.30. If the boys on top win, the
second team will have little chance
to land the flag. Motive Power
must take the game to get in the
running. Some surprises will be
in order.
Commonwealth last evening with
"Birdie" Hinkle on the mound took
a game from the Firemen and Engi
neers. Ihe Travelers are now only
two games bJi of the Motive Power
team. The latter to-night plays
West End. the leaders. Should the
runners no lose, the M. P.'s chances
for winning the pennant will go
glimmering. Furthermore it means
they will have to fight to hold sec
ond place.
There was method in the work of
the Commonwealth team last eve
ning. It was play ball from start
to finish. Biever had a bad spell in
the fourth, while Hinkle had the
Railroaders guessing in every in
ning. Fast fielding featured the bat
tle, but Hinkle was the candy boy.
He is an inflelder and proved a big
surprise as a curve hurler.
Wagoner's Home Run
One of the features of the game was
the home run swat made by Harry
Wagoner, who covers the left gar
den for the Engineers and Firemen.
Wagner made his drive in the fourth
inning when he drove the second
ball pitched to him so far out into
right field that he had circled Uu>
bases and had comfortably seated
himself on the players' bench before
the sphcrj was recovered and re
turned to the infield. Had it not
been for this drive, the railroaders
would have been whitewashed, for
they could do nothing with Hinklc's
delivery after that.
Commonwealth scored in the sec
ond inning. N. Ford hit for two
bases. Bell fanned. Kiliinger ground
ed to first and Ford took third on the
play. Biever made a balk and Ford
was permitted to score.
Four More Runs
Gerdes opened the fourth with a
single and went to second on N.
Ford's base hit. Both runners were
advanced a base or. Bell's sacrifice,
Kiliinger was safe on Dill's error,
and on Smith's single, Gerdes and
Ford scored. Fields followed with a
single, scoring Kiliinger and Smith.
On the throw to the plate to catch
Smith going home. Fields took sec
ond. Coehhlin struck out, Lightner
walked and Hinkle ended the inning
by flying out to Wagner.

Knights of Columbus Win
Twelve-Inning Battle
The Knights of Columbus baseball
team is keeping up its good record.
These boys won over McSherrystown
in the benefit score 4 to 3. The locai
team has seven games without a de
feat. In the last game, "Bill" Sha
fer's drive, with two on in the eighth,
end T. Euker's running catch of a
line drive in the tenth with two on
base, were two of the big features.
Perhaps the most unique play of
the season was pulled by Oscar Walz
the locals' second sacker. Weaver
singled sharply between first and sec
ond. Walz with his characteristic
Spirit of never giving up chased the
ball into right field. The runner
loafed on his way to first to our ad
vantage for the ball stuck In the
high grass and Oscar Walz picked
it up and threw out the runner by a
foot.
Sturm's pitching was a decided
factor in holding down the locals.

HERSHEY LOSES
TO HUMMELSTOWN
Firemen Now Have Two Vic
tories and One Tie in Series;
Game on Thursday
Hummelstown defeated Hershey
A. C. last evening, score 6 to 3. This
victory strengthens the claim of the
Hummelstown Fire Company team
that to win the championship of
Dauphin county West End and
other teams will have to battle with
them. Hummelstown is out for hon
ors and having defeated a number
of teams, are now ready to meet all
comers for the season's title.
The game last evening went nine
innings. C. Brown was a big star on
the mound and held his opponents
at critical times. His support was
classy. Connors had a weak flelil
back of him at intervals.
In the third inning Sullivan hit a
hard one to Eberly, who could not
recover in time to get his mail.
Connors fanned and Albert hit foi
three sacks, scoring Sullivan. For
rest walked and stole second. T.
Heagy hit a long sacrifice fly, Albert
scoring. Howe was an easy out. The
third run for Hershey came in the
fourth inning on S. Heagy's single,
followed with two easy outs anil
then a hit by Sullivan, Heagy taking
third. Connors singled, scoring the
runner.
Find Connors' Secret
Hummelstown started to solve
Connors' curves in the third. Halt
hit for two bases, and after Brown
was hit by a pitched ball, Keller
singled, scoring the run. In the
next inning Connors led with a hit
Brown was safe on first through an
error by Alberts. Etter was safe on
Howe's error and stole second, scor
ing on McCurdy's two-bagger.
In the fifth after McCurdy fanned,
Eberly reached first on Heagy's
error. Wertz went out. Eberly
started to steal second, Howe mak
ing a bad throw, Eberly going to
third. Shaub made another bad
throw on relaying the ball, Eberly
tying up the score.
In the sixth Keller was out on a
grounder to T. Heagy unassisted
Stewart went out, T. Heagy to Con
nors. Brown hit for a single. Etter
followed with a single and Brown
went to third and Etter to second
on the throw to catch Brown at
third. McCurdy drove in the two
runs on his second single of the
game. Eberly out. Sullivan to T.
Heagy.
In the eight Wertz led oft with
what looked like a home run down
in deep left field. Foster made a
nice catch after the ball traveled
through the limbs of a tree and re
tired the veteran hitter. Hart, after
hitting a two-bagger in the third,
hit a liner for three bases and
scored on a squeeze play by "Babe"
Brown at the bat, Brown out Heagy
to Alberts. Keller grounded out.
Sullivan to T. Heagy, for the third
out.
Fourth Game Thursday
Thursday evening Hummelstown
will go to Hershey for the fourth
game. Hummelstown has beat Her
shey 4 to 0, at Hershey, the first
game; held them to a 1-1 score the
second game at Hershey, and in
the third at Hummelstown beat
them 6 to 3. Hershey brought a
large bunch of rooters along from
Hershey, including some of the most
prominent men of that town and
Hummelstown will return the favor
Thursday evening. The score:

McGraw Has Big
Interest in Cincinnati
Here is what Manager McGraw
says about the "Reds":
"I naturally take a sort of a
personal interest in the Cincin
nati club because I furnished it
with st- much of its personnel.
In addition to Moran, Groh, Roush,
Rariden and Salee went to the
Reds from New York. I have
heard various opinions concerning
the trades which took playe.s
away, but even -in baseball you |
rarely get something for nothing.
"For instance, I knew that .Groh
was a great little player, but, at
the time, I couldn't use him and
t had to have a pitcher. I traded
Groh and Devore for Fromme.
What the trade meant to me was
the winning of a t.ennant. Fromme
wo,i eight straight games for me."
"See, the former International
League player Moran has been
using as an outfielder, is another
player I helped to develop. He is
a Bronx boy and r.e used to come
to the Polo Grounds and work out
with the Giants at morning prac
tice. Arthur Irwin took him to
Rochester and from there he went
to Cincinnati.
"While he is not another Ruth,
he looks like a good hitter."
Today Is Anniversary of
McGraw's First Big Game
Twenty-eight years ago to-day, or
on August 26, 1891, John J. McGraw,
the manager of the Giants, played
his first game in fast company. It
was at Baltimore against Columbus.
Wilbert Robinson, Brooklyn man
ager, caught for the Orioles. Mc-
Graw had just come from the Cedar
Rapids club of the Illinois-lowa
League. Henry Fabian, v present
ground keeper of the Polo Grounds,
placed with McGraw on the Cedar
Rapids Canaries, and Billy Murray,
Pirate scout, was in the same league
with the Little Napoleon.

ENHAUT ELEVEN
HAS STAR LINEUP
Eight Veterans Ready to Begin
Practice—New Players
Look Promising
i
Enhaut football team has re
organized for the coming season.
The management is prepared to ar
range games with any amateur
teams In Dauphin and adjoining
counties. So far eight veteran play
ers have reported to the manager
and will form a nucleus for tho
team.
Many promising players have been
found among the new candidates,
who will make some of the vets
work hard to hold their old jobs.
Robert Cooper who held the full
back position for several years, has
been doing some flying for Uncle
Sam and will probably make some
of his opponents leave the ground
to stop him. Walter Kuhnert, a
well known boxer of Dauphin
county, will try to hold down right
half back.
Edward At tick To Piny
Edward Attick, a former Pen
brook star, will be out for left half
back. Frank Bowers and Lewerne
Snavely, both of whom saw service
with Uncle Sam, will try for the
j same position. Chester Cooper, a
star in former years, will try for
his old position as quarter back.
The line, which will be stronger
than ever, will be composed of the
following:
The center position will be well
taken care of by Bartels, an ex
soldier and one of the best amateur
centers in this vicinity. The guard
position will be a hard struggle be
tween W. Metka, Etzwiler, Parthe
more, Soux, and Still.
"Bing" Metka and big "Jim" Av
ery, a former Steelton School
star, will shell shock the tackles of
the opposing teams. Metka weighs
200 pounds and Avery 190 poupds.
The candidates for ends are: E.
Hoover, J. Cooper, Laudenslager, G.
Hoover and Kefeter. AUeman and
Hoover will endeavor to stop their
opponents like they stopped the
"Hun" at Chateau-Thierry.
All teams wishing games, address
communications to Earl Shupp,
manager, Enhaut Athletic Associa
tion, Enhaut, Pa.
Atlantic is packed with pull
truck, ponderous load, steep climb —only
IwvlJ powerful, sinewy motor-fuel, packed with pull, \
can fill the job. Such a motor-fuel is Atlantic Gasoline. *
Made from the finest crude oil that flows —made to atlefinite stand
ard by an organization of refiners with more than fifty years' experi
ence to guide them —Atlantic Gasoline meets the test of the up-grade.
This is attested to by the fact that an overwhelming majority
of truck-owners in the State use Atlantic Gasoline to the exclusion
of all other motor-fuels. And this goes for oassenger-cars too.
The moral is plain.
