West End played all around Motive
Power last evening, won by a score
of 7 to 3, and put the runners up out
of the race for. this season. That is
the way the fans size up the situ
ation in the West Twilight
League series. They ha\e doped it
right. West End's work last even
ing was the kind that makes victory
certain. Every man on the team
worked. Motive Power lacked team
work.
Strieker pitched for the leaders,
and he had the goods. When a bat
ter outguessed him, his teammates
got busy. Motive Power could not
get started right. Four runs in the
first for West End pu* Bamford out
of the box and Wertz went in. It
was a great battle and was witnessed
by a crowd of 5,000. Strieker weak
ened near the close of the game, but
was never in danger.
West End has live games to play.
Losing all, and Motive Power win
ning would tie up the series. This
is not likely to happen. The run
ners up will in all probability put
their energy in trying to hold second
place, and they must win to do it.
After last night's victory Manager
Rodenhaver congratulated his play
ers and thanked them for their loyal
support.
Scoring Starts
W. Euker started the trouble with
a single to renter and was sacrificed
to second by McCord. Shafer doubled
and Euker scored. Embick was hit
by a pitched ball, but was caught at
second by a grounder, by Palmer.
Stewart attempted to make a double
play on ralmer's grounder. He
hurled the ball into the right field
bleachers and Shafer scored, Palmer
taking second. Palmer went on to
third on T. Euker's single. The lat
ter stole second and he and Palmer
both crossed the plate on McKeever's

THESE STARS HELPED TO MAKE CINCINNATI FAMOUS'
CINCINNATI REGULARS PLAY
KLEIN TEAM HERE FRIDAY;
THREE PITCHERS ARE READY
Cincinnati will be here Friday
with Manager Pat Moran's entire
squad. Harrisburg fans will see the
regular lineup. In a letter received
to-day by John Brackenridge, man
ager of the Klein Chocolate Com
pany team, it was stated emphatic
ally that the ;tars would play in
Harrisburg. When a big league
team plays here, there are some fans
who fear they will only see a second
team. Manager Brackenridge said
to-day:
"My contract calls for the regu
lar lineup. I have granted every re
quest of George Bancroft, the busi
ness manager and have stipulated
in my contract that the regular
lineup must play in Harrisburg. This
I have been assured will be done.
In a letter from Bancroft he says;
'we never fool the public". You can
make it strong in the newspapers
that the team that has played in
the east with the other National
"League teams will play in Harris
burg."
Good Money For Kcds
"I am paying a good guarantee
with a percentage option and made
no kick when the terms were given
me. Harrisburg fans will always
get the best I have to offer. Cin
cinnati has three exhibition games,
at Parkesburg, York and this city.
The Klein team will play Carlisle,
Thursday and remain in Harrisburg

CARLISLE A. C. IS
WILLING TO PLAY
Not Afraid of Hummelstown
-—Called Game Off Be
cause Men Work
I Carlisle baseball fans are up In
I arms. They dispute the right of the
j manager of the Hummelstown team
i to say the Carlisle A. C. is afraid to
j play the Fire Company team of
Hummelstown on Labor Day. Man-
I ager H. R. Einstein was here yester
j day and said he was "mad'.' Here
|is what he asks the Telegraph to
! print:
I "You printed in yesterday's issue
of your paper an article, which it
appears, came from some poor sport
iin Hummelstown, with reference to
! the Carlisle A. C. cancelling two
! games with Hummelstown on Labor
Day. As the article does not display
j good sportsmanship, I wish as man
| ager of the Carlisle club to make
I reply.
"Ejvrly in the season Hummels-
I town and myself arranged games,
one to be played at Carlisle Satur-
I day, August 16, which was played,
land two at Hummelstown on Labor
Day. At the time of making these
j arrangements I surely thought we
I could go to Hummelstown on this
I day for these games.
Flayers Must Work
"Only a short time ago, and after
i the game at Carlisle, the "layers, all
fof whom are employed in Carlisle,
j began to notify me that because of
! works, in which they are empoyed.
working on Labor Day, it would be
impossible for them to play, and
with good faith and good sports-
I manship I at once notified Hummels-
I town accordingly, and in plenty of
j time that they could secure another
team for this date.
"I have another offer from a ball
club, that is close to Carlisle, for a
game in the late afternoon of Labor
Day, with a guarantee double that
of Hummelstown, which is now un
der consideration, and fear it can
not be booked because of conditions
as above stated.
Arc Not Afraid
"With regard to being afraid of
AUGUST 27, 1919
Hummelstown, I wish to say we arc
not, afraid of Hummelstown, nor any
team In these parts of the State, yet
Hummelstown did defeat us, 2 to 0.
For this defeat I have placed the
entire responsibility upon myself. I
sent Hart into this game 'cold' he
not warming up at all, and he
walked the lirst two men up, and
with a scratch hit they scored the
only two runs. From this inning
on, our team completely outplayed
Hummelstown in all departments of
the game, outhitting, outflowing,
and Hart striking out the Hummels
town players at will. I would he glad
to arrange a game with Hummels
town, but surely feel the article
printed shows poor sportsmanship.
