Marysville started off with a rush in
, the first inning. Gerdes singled into
center. Rutter attempted to sacrifice,
and hit a short fly over Shafer's head
* who was playing in. Moore secured
a scratch single on an attempted sac
rifice along the first base line. With
the bases full and no person out, J.
Llghtner came to the bat with in
structions to hit It out. Strieker
tightened up and the best Llghtner
could do was to drive an easy bail to
McCord who threw Gerdes out at
home and Lightner was caught be
fore he reached first. The inning
ended when Hippensteel fanned. Aft
ter that Marysville collected but three
hits and Strieker was never in dang
er.
West End lost several opportunities

"" first inning. After W. Euker had
been given his base on balls and sac
rificed to second by McCord. he went
# to third on Shafer's hit while Shafer
went to second on the throw in.

for Marysville. Wagner popped to

WEDNESDAY EVENING,
Notes of the Game
"Freddie" Llghtner, who covered
the center garden for Marysville
until he broke his right ankle in the
early part of the season, will be
seen in Marysville's lineup on
Thursday evening. He will likely
cover the right garden. Lightner
had again returned to Marysville to
live. j
George Moore, Marysville's clever
second baseman, was playing in the
game tinder great handicap, for
which he received considerable fa
vorable mention. In practice before
the game he was hit over the head
with a thrown bat, which necessi
tated treatment at the Harrisbuig
Hospital. One stitch was required
to close the cut.
"Snowball" Winters, attired in a
plaid uniform, a bright red cap and
maroon stockings, attracted con
siderable ntention on the coaching
lines.
It is estimated that 1,500 persons
were in attendance at yesterday's
conflict. Bigger crowds are antici
pated at the future games in view
of the quality of ball played yester
day.
Marysville brought a black goat
with them as a mascot. Labeled
"Strieker's Goat," the animal did
not appear to have any effect on
West End's star hurler.
Spirited rooting such as was
heard yesterday has been noticed at
few games in this city. Both Mary>-
vllle and West End had large
crowds of fans with them, who
made themselves heard at intervals.
The fourth game of the series,
which has now been made necessary
by reason of yesterday's tie game,
will in all probability be staged on
the Seidel Park grounds at Marys
ville.
"Budgel" Householder watched
every play with his "Eagle Eye." He
had a wireless working and gave
some valuable advice. He coines
from a baseball family and knows
the game.
Railroaders were out in force.
They had their cheers working In
every inning.
The game to-morrow evening at
West End field. Fourth and Seneca
streets, should attract a big crowd.
It is real baseball these fellows
are handing out. I*>cal fans know
it.
Connie Mack's New Team
Wallops Detroit Tigers
Connie Mack's new team won a
game yesterday, defeating Detroit,
score 4 to 3. Here is what "Jim
Nasium" has to say in the Philadel
phia Inquirer to-day;
"A lot of young fellows from the
toll grass who are struggling to gain
recognition in the large cities drifted
into town yesterday and made a holy
show of the hired hands who have
been hanging around here all sum
mer. With the assistance of three
regular performers. Dugan, Thomas
and Perkins, these callow youths
from the underbrush went out and
caused a smile to appear on the
careworn features of Connie Mack,
where a smile has not dared to show
itself all summer, by beating Ty
Cobb and Co. in a big league ball
game by the score of 4 to 3.
"Noody cares about that. A ball
game more or less isn't going to
make any material difference to us.
But when a bunch of young aspir
ants, upon whom we may have to
depend for our future happiness, can
drift into town and hurriedly crawl
out of their, overalls and brush the
haywacd out of their locks and thump
a gsfrig of callous-souled missile
manglers like Mr. Cobb and his as
sociates the same afternoon it
amounts to something considerably
more than a mere ball game won.
"And the manner in which those
fellows did it was refreshing, to say
the least. While the birds who have
been drawing money here' all season
looked silently and wonderingly on,
these youths from the brush heaps
went right out there and showed
'em how our national pastime should
be committed, by heck. There was
a Mr. High, from the Three-Eye
League, out in right field; Messrs.
Wingo, Griffith and Galloway, from
the Southern League, in left field,
on first base and at shortstop re
spectively; Mr. Welsh, from the Vir
ginia League, in center field, and
Mr. Zinn, from the Texas League,
poised on the pitching peak.
"Whadda we care where they're
i from? This fellow Welsh, who sum-
I mered down in Norfolk, distin
guished himself in his second time
!at bat by driving in our first two
• tallies with a vehement home run
wallop into the left field bleachers,
1 and that's big league stuff."

afternoon, which auspiciously opened
the fifteenth annual tournament of the
far-famed Hogans. The field was
gathered from all sections. Last year
there were 123 shooters the first day
and the great increase of entries this
season promises the most successful
tourney in the history of the popular
organization.

J. Jay Clark, of Boston; W. C. Letter- i
man, of Lewistown, Pa., and J. V. He
yinger, of lilmira, N. Y,, ranked third

high professional, breaking 117,
George N. Fish, of Maryland, who as
an amateur last year cleaned up
things at this tournament, was second
high professional.
Mrs. A. D. Topperwcln, who unques
tionably is the best woman shot in
the country, broke 111. Mrs. Harry
Harrison, of Rochester, also went very
well. She "grassed" 107. Mrs. L. G.
Daggett, of Clarksdale, Miss., chipped
102.
Kd Hellyer, of Alexandria, Penn
sylvania State champion, had a score
of 112. R. D. Morgan, Maryland State
champion, who two years ago accom
plished a sensational perfect run of
333, smashed 113. George J. Tuckett,
formerly of Rochester and now a res
ident of California, proudly boasts
that despite his 380 pounds of avoir
dupois, he is still in pretty good trim.
He went down the traps, breaking
109 yesterday .afternoon-

PENN STATE IS
WORKING HARD
Many Former Grid Stars on
Squad, Including Clarence
Beck, of This City
State College, Pa., Sept. 10.
Forty candidates for this year's
Penn State football team are out
daily for practice. Workouts are
held on New Beaver Field under the
direction of Dick Harlow and Dutch
Herman, the freshman coach.
Penn State expects to have a good

Harry Conover. Higgins was elected
to captain the 1917 eleven but he
entered the service instead. He has
been mentioned for all-American
teams and has played a sensational
game at ond ever since he entered
Penn States. He was a Lieutenant
in infantry and saw service in France
with the 79th Division. He also
played end on the championship
79th Division eleven and was unani
mously selected for the all-A. E.
F. team.
Was in Army
Conover succeeded to the cap
'taincy of the team in 1917 when
Higgins failed to return, also play
ing at end. Last fall, he captained
the Ordnance team at Camp Han
| cock, which took the measure of J.
Howard Berry's service team. Harry
! Itobh was Captain-elect for 1918
hut after winning his commission as
a Lieutenant in infantry, he was de
tailed to Columbia University. While
there he captained the S. A. T. eleven
and put up a fine game. He plays in
the backfield.
Other former letter men who have
returned are Charlie Way, the good
quarterback of 1917; Clarence Beck
and Ben Cubbage of the Usaacs, who
saw service in Italy; Casey Jones,
who was flying in France; Ege,
Rauch, and Smozinskt, ends; Hills,
Osborne, Griffiths, Black, and Raer,
linemen, and Ullery, Hess, Snell,
Ritner, and McCullum, backs. In
addition, ten members of last year's
eleven have returned and are ex
pected to put up a hard fight for
positions. These are G. W. Brown,
Grimes, and ICorb, ends; Henry and
Farley, tackles; I. W*. Brown, guard;
McKenzie, center, and Williams,
Killinger, Lundberg, and Knabb,
Head Coach Bozdek will not ar
rive until September 26 because of
his duties as manager of the Pitts
burg Baseball Club, so that the
preliminary work will be under the
direction of Coaches Harlow and
Herman, both of whom were In serv-
ice last year. Yerger, 'l6, who as
sisted Bezdek last year, has a'so re
turned and will probably help with
the coaching.
