•Harrisburg Players Bring
Hope to Gettysburg Team
Gettysburg, Pa., Sept. 23.—The
return of Victor Emanuel and
James Richards, of Harrisburg, star
players of the Gettysburg College
football squad several years ago,
has greatly strengtV ned the eleven
which will this year represent the
institution. There were enough can
didates on the field to make up four
elevens and the material is the
most promising of many
Almost the entire squad is composed
• of men with former football experi
ence, and Coaches Wood and Leath
ers are confident that tho strength
of the outfit will be fully shown in
the early gnme-s and maintained as
the season progresses. Gettysburg
this year has the hardest schedule
wilich it has faced for a long time,
hut the athletic authorities are free
to say that the team will fully Jus
tify the management in having ar
ranged the heavy program. '

TUESDAY EVENING,
NEW ASSOCIATION
TO BOOST SPORT
Fighters Are More Inclined to
Keep Contracts, Says
Local Promoter
"Dave" McConnell, secretary and
business manager of the new Har
risburg Boxing Association, has en
tered the game here with an addi
tional idea to that of making money
out of it at the expense of the pub
lic, according to a statement made
by him yesterday. "While the or
ganization expects to realize some
thing from its investment, it also
desires to place before the fans
something that will bo a suitable
return for their money," McConnell
says, "and only boxing of that kind
will he countenanced.
"There are possibilities of boxers
throwing us down, but with us such
a thing will only occur once for any
man that we secure to fight, for a
return match will be awarded no
person who does not give satisfac- j
tlon in his first appearance.
Sport Is Popular
"Boxing, the Oliver Twist of
sportdom, which for years has been
used as a football by professional
reformers and maltreated in the
house of Its supposed friends, ap
parently has emerged from its drab
days of a miserable existence find is
about to take its proper place in tho
brotherhood of rough, vigorous pas
times.
"Always keenly In favor with the
patrons of sport requiring skill,
strength and courage, yet for years
boxing has been shunned by the
better classes of the community ow
ing to the unsavory methods of those
who have dominated the sport in the
past.
Fighters Improve
"But, following the great conflict
in Europe, boxing promoters and
managers and the boxers themselves,
to a largo extent, have mended their
ways and are conducting the sport
in a commendable way. True there
still is riom for improvement, but
the trend is in tha direction of a
higher standard all around, and the
future prospects of the sport are in
deed rosy.
"I feel confident that the persons
who attend tho opening show of our
organization in the Chestnut Street
Auditorium hero Friday night of
this week will agree with me that
we are doing all we can to attain
that higher standard."

Chicago Tickets All Gone;
No Issue Until Thursday
Chicago, Sept. 23.—Arrangements
for conducting the world's series,
made at the meeting of the National
Baseball Commission in Cincinnati,
yesterday, are highly satisfactory to
Charles A.. Comiskey, president of
the Chicago Americans.
"Playing two games in Cincinnati
and then coming here for three is
all right so far as I am concerned,"
President Comiskey said. "If wo
had won the toss for the opening
games it would have been all the
same to me."
Approximately 20,000 applications
for world's series tickets have piled
up at the White Sox park and must
be returned to the senders, as the
reserved and box seats have been
sold. There has been the usual pro
test from disappointed applicants
in the method of awarding the
tickets, but officials explained there
was no other course to pursuo.
The pennant race in the Amer
ican League cannot be settled be
fore to-morrow, as neither Chicago
nor Cleveland plays until that day.
Chicago lias five games remaining.
Tho percentage figures show that if
the White Sox win one or Cleveland
loses one Chicago will win the pen
nant. If Chicago loses all five of
its games, and Cleveland wins four,
the flag will go to Cleveland. The
Cleveland Club reduced Chicago's
lead to four games yesterday by
winning from Washington.
Commonwealth Eleven Is
Loser at New Cumberland
A touchdown by Bowen in the
last minute of play gave the New
Cumberland Boys' Brigade a 6 to 0
victory over the Commonwealth
eleven of Harrisburg, yesterday, at
New Cumberland. The game was ex
ceptionally well played for an early
season contest.
"Red" Weir, a former Tech end
is the guiding star of the Boys*
Brigade. Under his coaching, it is
exnected that the team will develop
into one of the most formidable of
the nearby teams.

HARD WORK FOR
TECH GRID TEAM
Maroons to Meet Allentown
High in Opening Con
test Saturday
In preparation for the initial foot-1
ball contest of tho 1919 season in
Harrisburg to be played over on the
island Saturday afternoon by the
Technical High Squad against the
Allentown High School team. Coach
Paul Smith put tho Maroon warriors
through tho hardest scrimmage last
night. Each evening will see a
slackening of the heavy work until
signal practice will be run off Fri
day night.
Last night Coach Smith made sev
eral changes in ho 'Varsity lineup.
Garrett was played at center, and
his place in the backfield was taken
by George Gcrmcr. When Garrett is
at right half back, Johnny Smith
will be tho pivot man.
Heck Uond I'unter
Carl Beck has been featuring the
work outs by his splendid punting.
Ho will do the booting for the Ma
roon team. Wilsbach and Lingle are
as dependable as ever, and will make
life miserable for opposing lines and
ends. Tech never had their equal
or any one team. Beck, Lingle and
Wilsbach are an unbeatable trium
virate.
Undoubtedly Captain Frank and
Arnold will start at tackles. No one
so far lias been able to displace
them. Half a dozen players have a
chance at guard. Comfort and Hoff
sommer so far seem to have the call,
but Ellinger, Pleam and Eaton are
on the Job at all times. Comfort Is
the Terre Haute lad who Joined the
squad this season. He will be a
valuable adjunct to the Tech line
once ho learns Coach Smith's style
of play, and becomes accustomed to
tho Eastern method of stopping an
offensive.
Two on Injured List
"Zip" Mallck has a bad bruise of
his left leg above tho knee due to a
kick. "Snaps" Emanuel has been
suffering from bruises for several
days, but was able to be at prac
tice last night. Books, a Junior, has
been showing flashy work, and may
make a place at end or in the back
field. "Midge" Matter has been
showing good form at end. Although
he is handicapped by his lack of
weight, he will surly earn a try-out
in one of the earlier contests. Erd
ley is also an aspirant for a wing
position. Allentown High will be the
attraction Saturday, and the largest
turn out in the history of Tech is
expected.
Let U. S. Dictate Peace
by Control of Panama and
Hawaii, McAndrews Says
Washington, Sept. 2 3.—America's
future military policy as advocated
yesterday before the House military
committee by Major General J. W.
MeAndrew, chief of staff of the
American Kxpeditionary Force
throughout the war, should call for
"peace on the Pacific on our own
terms." This, he said, can be as
sured by control of the Panama ca
nal and the Hawaiian 'lslands.
Although Genernl McAndrews
told the committee he was "loth to
disagree with tho general staff," he
took issue with its reorganization
plan on the basis of an army of 509,-
000 men, proposing instead a force
of 300,000 "at tho utmost." While
joining with the general staff in
advocating universal training for
19-year-old youths, General McAn
drews disagreed with its proposed
three-month period of training, de
claring it was "inadequate" and
should be at least six months.
Enhaut Wins First Game,
Defeating Sycamore Eleven
The Enhaut football team opened
the season on Saturday by defeating
Sycamore on Sycamore's field, score
7 to 0. The game was closely con
tested and not until near the end
did Kuhnert get away on a fifteen
yard run and make the only touch
down of the game.
Enhaut expects to have a busy
season this year as Manager Shupp
has a game scheduled for every Sat
urday. Some of the games away
from home will be with Mercersburg,
Mt. Joy and Lancaster.
The teams will practice on Mon
day and Friday evenings of this
week. Any candidates from out of

Company gave a practical demon
stration of first aid.

TECH HIGH GIVEN CREDIT
FOR CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM
BY FAMOUS GRID COACH
Spalding's football guide for 1919

of the best high school teams last
lyear ever developed in the United
States. George W. Orton, a coach
at the University of Pennsylvania,
under tho heading "Scholastic Foot
ball In the Middle States," says:

scored 597 points to 10 against
them.
Strong Eleven

been developed in this country. By
many it was considered as the
champion team of the United States.

no reason to believe themselves
stronger than Harrisburg Tech.
"In Beck, Lingle, Ebner and Wils
bach, Harrisburg Tech had one of
the greatest backfields that has ever
represented any school.
Hock Fast Boy
"Beck was a remarkably able
runner and scored many points for
his team. His record this year as
one of the greatest all-around
track and field athletes in scholas
tic ranks proves that he is probably
the greatest athlete of the year in
our schools. As is to be ex
pected, the Harrsburg line was far
above the average of the ordinary
high school eleven. Their coach,
Paul G. Smith, deserves great
credit for their remarkable show
ing."

Atlantic Gasoline—
j|§|| Master of Miles
Season-mileage looms big on the meter of the car propelled by Atlantic
Gasoline. For, when Atlantic was originally'created, the table of linear
measurement was incorporated in the formula.
Therefore, Atlantic Gasoline has the stretch that makes each wheel
a reel, unwinding miles and miles of ribbon-roads. That is its measure
of worth, so to speak.
For consistent, month-upon-month mileage, there is on©' motor-fuel
that answers "present". Its name is Atlantic Gasoline, and it has no
doubles or near-relatives. Absolutely none.
