    - WEST END PLAYS MARYSVILLE THIS EVENING ON ISLAND-GILL WALLOPS WOLGAST
CHAMPION TEAMS IN FORM
FOR FOURTH TITLE BATTLE
ON ISLAND THIS EVENING
West End, winners of the pennant
in the local league and holders of
the city title by virtue of their de
feat of Reading, and Marysville,
Dauphin-Perry League champs, will
lineup in the fourth ghme of their
championship series on the old H. A.
C. grounds in Island Park this
evening at 5.18. With the serieS'tied
and both teams playing a high grade
of ball, an attendance equal to the
record-breaking crowd at last Sat
urday's game, is expected.
The silver loving cup, awarded
to the pennant winning team in the
Dauphin-Perry League, will be of
ficially presented to the Marysville
club before this afternoon's game!
The presentation speech will be
made by E. E. Knauss, of Harris
burg, president of the league, and
will be received by the Rev. Ralph
E. Hartman, of Marysville, an ardent
supporter of the Marysville team.
Jazz. Band Coming
Marysville may bring its jazz band
with it for this afternoon's affair,
but this arrangement has not defin
itely been made. It had been ex
pected to make the presentation at
Saturday afternoon's melee, but
plans were changed only this morn
ing and some of the arrangements
have been rather hasty.
For this afternoon's affair, Kid
Strieker and the veteran Harry
Biever will be again sent to the
mound to face each other by Man
ager Householder, of West End, and
Manager Stees, of Marysville, re
spectively. These moundsmen have
hurled every inning of the games al
ready played, both displaying high
class form. Honors thus far have
been practically even in every re
spect, each moundsman winning one
game and tying the third.
Same Lineup
Little change is expected in the
Marysville lineup for the game.
With one exception, and that not
certain, the same contingent which
played an unusually peppery game
on the island on Saturday, will be
used to-day. Freddie Lightner,
right fielder, is being bothered con
siderably by his right ankle which
was broken in the earlier part of
Boys Who Fight Will Meet
in Opening Show Here;
Thirty Rounds of Thrills
Nate Isaaeman, one of Harris
burg's cleverest lightweights, has
been added to the bill that Is to be
presented by the Ilarrisburg Boxing
Association in the Chestnut Street
Auditorium Friday night of next
week, September 26. A match has
been arranged between Isaaeman
and 'Young" Shugrue, of Allentown.
The latter is a fighter who has been
connected with Charlie Ettinger's
stable for some time, and is regard
ed as a good youngster. The pair
will meet in one of the two prelimi
nary bouts that are to be on the
card, and are scheduled to travel
over a six-round route.
For the semiwindup the associa
tion has secured Jackie McCarron,
of Allentown, and Young Zaring, of
Reading. McCarron has appeared
here before, and his ability is known
to some of the local fans, but Zaring
is more or less ot an unknpwn qual
ity. and his appearance will be
watched with interest. As an add
ed feature, the organization officials
have decided to make the semi
windup an eight-round affair, which
will provide thirty rotfnds of fighting
for the show.
Jackie Clark, the Allentown boxer
who is going to oppose Len Row
lands, the Milwaukee middleweight,
in the ten-round windup, captured
the middleweight championship
honors of the American Expedition
ary Forces by winning seven differ
ent events during the tournament
that was conducted in France after
the signing of the armistice.
Burns Baseball Team Is
Anxious to Meet West End
Lebanon, Sept. 18. After de
feating all the amateur baseball
teams in Lebanon county, the Burns
baseball team of this city has issued
a challenge to the management of
the Harrisburg West End Club to
play a series of three games to de
cide the superiority. It is under
stood in Lebanon this Harrisburg
team holds undisputed possession of
the city championship. If the chal
lenge is accepted, and satisfactory
terms arranged, it is probable there
will be a game in each city and, if
necessary, a toss-up will decide
where the third would be held.
GENTEEL ENVIRONMENT
"What's Eloise doing now?"
"Welfare work in prison."
"It too bad for a refined girl like
that to come in contact with har
dened criminals."
"Oh, she merely visits the 'Bank
ers' colony.' It's really a high-clasa
club, you know, whose members
have moved in good society and ex
pect to do so again as soon as their
period of seclusion is over." —Birm-
ingham Age-Herald.
TOO BUSY TO INVESTIGATE
"You don't appear to take much
interest in this investigation."
"No," answered the ultimate con
sumer. "I'm busy hustling to meet
bills. I can't stop to referee dis
putes as to whether the situation is
due to higher cost of production or
lower purchasing power of a dollar.
It hits me either way."—"Washing

the season, and Manager Stees may
decide not to use him in to-day's
game. Ellenberger, who has been
substituting in a capable manner all
season, will be in uniform this after
noon for the first time in the series
and promises to break in the game
in one of the outfield positions.
Changes, too, will likely be made
in the lineup of the West End con
tingent. "Benny" Kline, ,in all prob
ability, will be selected as Strieker's
battery mate, replacing Paul Knight,
who is suffering with an injured
hand. Kline covered second base in
the second game of the series dur
ing the absence of "Ike" McCord.
Other than the substitution of
Kline, no change is expected in the
West End lineup. Captain "Bill"
Euker, shortstop, has been suffering
somewhat from his ankle which was
injured in last Saturday's game, but
is expected to get into to-day's game.
In the event, however, that he is
unable to play, McCord will likely
be sent to short and Harry Bell to
second in McCord's place.

GILL WALLOPS
LANCASTER BOY
Billy Atticks Floors Giant Ma
chinist in One of Best Bing
Shows Seen Here
Fight fans had a big un for their
money last night at Steelton. Joe
Barrett put on his second show, pick
ing his battlers. There were thrills
and then more thrills, the entire eve
ning proving one of the best in the
history of the ring game in this vi
cinity.
Johnny Gill, of York, in a ten-round
battle with Johnny Wolgast, of Lan
caster, put it all over his opponent.
Wolgast was on the floor once and
several times the bell saved him a
knockout. He was given the hardest
kind of punishment. Gill's superior
ity was in evidence all the time.
Another fast and fierce battle was
between Billy Angclo. the Greek
fighter from York, formerly of Pitts
burgh, ar-d Billy Logan, of Allentown.
These boys were fighting every mo
ment. While Angelo received severe
punishment and was groggy at times,
Logan, too, got some stiff punches,
and the general opinion prevailed
that the battle was a draw. Both
boys had their friends and received
attention in applause and cheers. It
was real fighting.
Kuhnert Knocked Out
One of the most interesting battles
of the evening was between Billy
Attiolcs of Harrisburg and Jjbn Kuh
l crt, of Steelton. The latter is a ma
chinist and a giant. When he ap
peared in the ring he was given great
applause and looked like a sure win
ner. This boy was carried out of the
ring. He was knocked out in tho
third round after a minute of fighting.
Attieks was only in danger part of
the first round. As soon as he sized
up his man he gave a great exhibition
of good work. The Harrlsburg boy
is only a beginner. It was his second
fight and his second knockout.
In the third round Atticks caught
Kuhnert a fair stroke along the side
of the face and sent him down, and
the Steelton fighter had only been on
his feet a short time when the rap
was sent over by Atticks that ended
the match. Kuhnert fell and after
taking the count of ten was led to his
chair Atul had to rest there for sev
eral minutes before he could leave.
Two Exhibition Features
Young Wagner was not present. It
was said he missed his train. Hall
Shay could not get a substitute, and
this popular boy was again without
a battle. Shay is a good boy and al
ways in form. In place of this pre
liminary Manager Joe Barrett sub
stituted two exhibitions. One was be
tween two small boys known as the
Euffington Brothers, who gave a nice
exhibition and showed some science.
They hit hard. Tho other was be
tween Prince and Princess Henry the
feminine pait of the team being a
clever walloper.
The windup brought much favorable
comment. Gill was the aggressor all
the time. Both boys were working
slowly In the last two rounds.
Wolgnnt Clinches
Johnnie Wolgast followed his usual
habit of clinching during the battle.
There was considerable infighting
with the York boy getting somewhat
the better of this style. Gill started
off strong, and he kept Wolgast on
the defense during the greater part of
the first four rounds. The Lancaster
fighter got in the way of a hard rap
during the third round, which caused
the scarlet to flow, he suffering a
bloody nose.
This action on the part of Gill
spurred Wolgast into action for the
latter made a better showing in the
fourth round, and had the better of
the early part of the fifth stanza,
the latter winding up with equal hon
ors when Gill staged a flash which
carried him right after Wolgast for
nearly the entire last minute of the
round.
In the sixth Gill had things rather
easy, and one time during the round
Wolgast being dropped to one knee
for a second througlf a hard rap on
the Jaw. Wolgast got busy in the
seventh and did a >ittle better, al
though Gill earned tho honors for
(he round, but In the eighth Wol
gast started well and kept things
humming during the greater part of
the three minutes.
BXIUUSBURG TEEBGaEOCPH
WINCHESTER DAY
IS BIG SUCCESS
New Style of Guns Attract
Attention; Close Scores
For Target Practice
Trapshooting, a popular sport in
Harrlsburg, received a big boost yes
terday. The promotion team for the
Winchester Company was the big
' attraction and Introduced some new
things of interest to trapshooters 1
and sportsmen. Of course the one
big part of yesterday's event, was the
appearance of Mr. and Mrs. Topper
wein, of Texas, the greatest rifle
and gun shooters in the world. The
same can be said of the men form
ing the Winchester team.
Harrisburg folks turned out a big
crowd and those who were not at
Second and Division streets missed
the treat of the year in a shooting
exhibition. It was not all profes
sionals who figured yesterday. There
was an interesting. 100 target race
that had some thrills. On the whole,
Winchester Day in Harrisburg will
go down in the history of the Har
risburg Sportsmen's Association un
der whose auspices this event was
staged, as a memorable occasion.
Humer Is Higli Gun
The 100-target race started the
program. C. E. Humer, of Marietta,
who has been missed frqm the shoot
ing game for a time came back with
high honors, scoring 98 out of the
100. He nosed out Harry B. Shoop,
one of Harrisburg's popular shots
who had 97. Scores were good.
Humer and Shopp each had two
straight runs of 25 each. J. G. Mar
tin, Neidgamer, H. Confer, Mrs.
Topperwein, Roberts, Stevens, Wag
ner, Alleman, Stewart and Shaeffer
each made 25 straight.
The Winchester part of the pro
gram indued the introduction of
two new guns, the one known as
the 410, and the other the ribbed
gun. The former is likely to bring
many young shooters into the sport.
It is a miniature scatter gun, not
yet on the market but ready soon.
It opens up opportunity to boys and
girls, young men and women and
others to get into the trap shooting
game. There are special shells and
targets. This gun will do nearly
everything a big gun will at short
range. It will meet requirements
in the woods and mountain and will
bring an army of junior trapshooters
into this popular sport. The other
guns tried out were used for the first
time here. The Winchester aggre
gation was given a great introduc
tion by Fred A. Godcharles, Deputy
Secretary of the Commonwealth.
The Winchester shooters first gave
an exhibition in a 25-target race. I
Next came shooting at doubles, and
then the small guns were brought
out and there was lively competi
tion for honors. This team is made
up of men who won many cham
pionships and who hold titles now.
The leader is J. Mowell Hawkins of
Harrisburg, who never misses a
match when at home.
Tlie Big Show
Of course the big part of the
exhibition came from the Topper
weins. What they cannot do with
a rifle, revolver or shot gun no per
son in this wide wodd has ever done.
They hit marbles, 'blocks of wood,
iron rings, potatoes, bricks, eggs or
anything thrown in the air. They
shoot with their backs to the mark,
using a looking glass, knock empty
shells and other articles from their
fingers, and many other different
and daring feats. Mrs. Topperwem
proved a popular entertainer, show
ing remarkable skill with a revolver.
As the closing feature Mr. Topper
wein, who is a cartoonist, made a
drawing of Uncle Sam's head on a
plate of tin, using bullets for the
drawing, and making the picture
in very short time. This was the
second time these wonderful shots
have been in Harrisburg in five
years.

Cincinnati Fans Ready to
Back Team With Good Odds
Cincinnati, Sept. 18. —With the
pennant lashed securely to their flag
pole, Cincinnati fans can now havo
the privilege for the first time In
history ot doping their own chances
for the world's championship. The
rabid Red fans believe their idols
will trim the White Sox. They are
betting that way at 6 to 4. Sinn
Sallee, veteran southpaw, will prob
ably be Pat Moran's selection lor
the first contest. Pat not only fig
ures him as one of the best of his
all-star pitching staff, but he is
banking on the experience of the
veteran to get him over any rough
places. Walter Reuther will likely
get the second call. He has led die
league most of the reason. Hod
Eller, the "no-hit" king, may alter
nate with the portside pair.
Bethany A. C. Eleven Is
Ready to Meet Local Teams
The Bethany A. C. football team
of York has organized for the com
ing season and would like to hear

JUNIOR HIGH TO
HAVE ATHLETICS
Edison School Starts Plans
For Football and Other
„ Sports
It has been definitely decided that
here will be athletics Including foot
ball at Edison Junior High School
this fall. Through the efforts of the
executive committee and the kindness
of a friend of the school a way has
been opened to finance the season.
There is no doubt that athletics will
be self sustaining under the plan de
vised. Steps have been taken to or
ganize an athletic association which
will have charge of the athletics of
the school. Nominations will be post
ed and a regular election held. The
second division will vote Thursday
and the first division on Friday.
Hold Mass Meeting
A mass meeting was held Monday
afternoon for the boys of the first
division, and a large number an
nounced that they will be candidates
for the football team. On Tuesday
afternoon a chance will be given to
the boys of the second division to
announce their Intention to try for
the team. It is expected that there
will be 50 or more candidates for the
team and that there will be at least
three different teams. The coach. Mr.
Miller, will meet the candidates on
Wednesday nftornoon after school,
and give them a lecture on the prin
ciples of the game. These boys will
be outfitted as soon as an organiza
tion can be effected and funds can be
procured. Practice will begin In
earnest as soon as togs arrive.
Open to All Students
The students will have a chance to
Join the athletic association, through
their regular class organizations, dur
ing the remainder of this week.
Judging from the spirit of the boys
this afternoon there will be a large
enrollment. The girls have a chance
to be members, too, and will doubt
less enroll in large numbers. They
will have a chance to participate In
athletics later in the season in the
various athletic activities suitable for
girls to play.
The classes will express their pref
erence of colors. Their delegates will
meet with the faculty committee this
afternoon and definitely determine
what shall be the colors of the school.
Baseball Magnates Want
i League Heads to Get Out
Chicago, Sept 18.—William H
Baker, president of the Philadelphia
Nationals, member of the nominat
ing committee for a chairman of the
National Baseball Commission, an
nounced that Garry Herrmann, of
the Cincinnati Reds, ought to re
sign as chairman of the National
Commission, so that a successor may
be selected for him Immediately.
Baker said It would not be fair to
baseball or Herrmann to continue
as chairman while his club is con
testing for the world's pennant. He
did not say what notice, if any, had
been sent Herrmann.
The nominating committee ad
journed after naming four men
from whom to chose a successor to
Herrmann. They refused to make
public these names.
"Byron B. Johnson will be put out
of baseball," declared Colonel Jacob
Ruppert, one of the owners of the
New York Americans, who also is a
director of the league and the Junior
league representative on the joint
nominating committee.
Colonel Ruppert added:
"The Boston Red Sox and the
Chicago White Sox clubs have align
ed themselves with the New York
Yankees, and we intend to contln
this fight until we obtain the neces
sary results. Mr. Comiskey was au
thorized to obtain from Mr. John
eon a statement of tlte affairs of tn=
league, and wo have an abundance
of legal talent to see that this Is
carried out."
RED FANS TO
CELEBRATE
Governor Cox With Mayor
Calvin to Take Part in
Pennant Program
Cincinnati, Sept. 18. —A city -wide
celebration of the winning of the Na
tional League baseball pennant by
the Cincinnati Nationals is proposed
by Mayor John Calvin.
The mayor at present Is attending
the Elks' State reunion at Colum
bus, but as soon as he returns to
Cincinnati he will call In conference
representatives of civic and busi
ness organizations, amateur and
semlprofessional baseball organiza
tions and otlier bodies representa
tive of the community as a whole to
plan a great jubilee that may take
the form of a municipal holiday.
Governor to Join
It is felt certain that Governor
Cox and other State officials gladly
would join In making the celebration
a State affair, and that by this
method the neighboring cities across
the Ohio river in Kentucky could
also take part.
The tremendous interest through
out the country In the great fight by
the Reds was manifested within an
hour after the game that decided the
pennant fight had been placed yes
terday afternoon.
Messages of congratulation began
to come to the Cincinnati club's
headquarters, and all of yesterday
there was a procession of messen
ger boys delivering telegrams of
congratulation. President August
Herrmann received hundreds of
calls over the telephone and many
personal congratulations from Cln
clnnatians. and Manager Pat Moran
also was kept busy accepting felici
