Joe Jackson, who was displaced from the lead by Neale, came through with two safeties that boosted his total of hits to ten but his batting mark is .370. Directly following Jackson Is the wonderful little catcher, Ray Schalk. who has a mark of .315. Even Felsch Bit Haps Felsch managed to come across with two hits and now has a fair hitting mark of .238. while Eddie Collins, despite his two bingles yes terday, is still trailing along with a .150 average.

The contest will be called at three o'clock, with "Shorty" Miller, the former State College athlete as one of the officials. At last night's practice, "Buddie" Llngle was again absent, because of illness. However, he attended yes terday's session of school, and was expected on the field for practice this afternoon.

Last j night "Fat" Ellinger was given a I chance at center. He has been play ( ing guard and tackle. Because of his , weight he will make a good substi tute for "Johnny" Smith at the pivotal position. Burnham Y. M. C. A. Has Largest Bowling League Lewtstown, Pa., Oct. 9.

Commenting upon the relationship between strategem and spoils accruing therefrom, James Crusinberry com ments as follows in the Tribune: "It is rumored that Manager Mo ran has his board of strategy around him in some secret place every day. This board of strategy stuff seems to be a good thing, too. There didn't seem much doubt but that they had a secret series staff that obtained a pretty good line of dope on every one of Gleason's players. "Anyway, right in the first game they were pitching in the proper manner to the various batters and they were playing in the proper places to handle anything hit by the Sox. They acted like a bunch that had been in the American League all summer and seemed so well instructed on the dope that they made few mistakes. It may be re membered that back in 1910, when the Athletics and Cubs played for the big title, the Cubs were hot fa vorites. Daring Prank Chance Days "That was when Frank Chance was here with his big team, which BUSINESSMEN BIG WINNERS Score Over Zembo Patrol Team in Lively Volley ball Game Volleyball enthusiasts were given a rare treat last night. In the sec ond game at Chestnut Street Audi torium, Zembo Patrol team lost to the Evening Businessmen's class team at Central T. M. C. A., score 45 to 24.

They* won three straight matches, scores 15 to 7; 15 to 8 and 15 to 9. having a margin of 21 points at the finish. Another Game The next game will be scheduled to-day and will in all probability be held on Wednesday night, Oc tober 15. Three teams are ready to meet Zembo. In order to meet all comers a schedule will be ar ranged. The spectators last night, many of whom had never seen a volleyball game, warmed up to the sport rap idly. It is a game that is increas ing daily in popularity in Harris burg. and later on there may be two games each week. An interest ing feature at these games will be a dance program. Last night nearly everybody remained over for the dance and enjoyed the program of fered. Franklin's twelve-piece or chestra scored another hit. Strike Ban in Cummins Railroad Bill Is Retained by Senate Committee Washington, Oct. 9. Strong provisions forbidding strikes and lockouts will remain in the Senate railroad bill, despite the protests of the railroad brotherhoods and the representatives of all organized labor. This has been agreed to by the Interstate Commerce Committee of the Senate, of which Senator Cum mins is chairman. It is also an nounced that the bill will be com pleted by the committee within the next ten days and will be reported to the Senate. , .. In all important fundamentals the bill is the work of Senator Cummins. It will have to be changed in phrase ology and amended in some par ticulars by the committee, but its general outlines are retained. The most important feature of the bill is in its complete reorganisation of the system of regulation and con trol. Government Has Plan to Break Up U. S. Steel Company, Attorney Says Washington, Oct. 9.—The United States Steel Corporation was attack ed and in turn defended during the second day of arguments in the Su preme Court, which is considering the Government's anti-trust suit against that organization. C. B. Ames, assistant to the Attorney Gen eral, appearing for the Government, declared the corporation was or ganized for the purpose of eliminat ing the "possibilities of competition" and asked for its dissolution, while Richard V. Lindabury, for the de fense, urged the court to sustain lower court decrees dismissing the proceedings. Replying to Inquiries by Justices Van De Vanter and Pitney, Judge Ames told the court that aside from asking for the breaking up of the corporation into competitive units, the Government has no plan to sug gest. WEST END JUNIORS WE* The West End Juniors scored an 18 to 0 victory/over the Keystone Junior eleven in a match played on the grounds at Nineteenth and Syca more streets last evening. "Wally" Fries and Gassert were factors in the victory, and were given excellent sup port by their teammates. had won three pennants and two world's championships before tackl ing the team of Connie Mack. Well, Connie Mack had a board of strategy to prepare his players for the series with the Cubs and they were pre pared. Consequently the Macks knew what they were doing and they won four out of five games in a hurry. "Bill Gleaaon didn't need any help to win the American league pen nant and didn't see where anyone could help his fellows in the world series. He did have a spy watching the Reds and learned all that )■ wanted to know about their batting peculiarities and their general style of defense, and let it go at that. Now the baseball experts are all wonder ing if the board of strategy is a good thing or if it isn't worth shucks. "After a proonged discussion among the 200 war scribes assem bled here for the series, the general belief was expressed that dope is a splendid thing to have on a rival club, until that rival club hits a couple of balls on the nose and spills it."

Pennsylvania People Prospered Daring War Washington, D. C„ Oct 9.—That Pennsylvania flourished during the war more than any other State ex cept New York, Is indicated by a preliminary report on personal In come tax returns for 1917 prepared by the Commissioner of Internal Revende. Even more significant It Is shown that the number of Pennsylvanians making Income tax returns during the first year of the war was eight times the number of those report ing taxable Incomes In 1916, and that of the total, fully half of the Incomes exceeded 32,000. The fig ures given In the report furnish con clusive evidence that men and wom en with the smaller incomes pros pered proportionately more than those In the millionaire class. Banking System Opened at Edison Junior High Those who are responsible for the development of democratic habits among the citizens of Edison Com munity are anxious to add to the commonly recognized virtues of democracy the habit of thrift With this aim in view they have arranged that the system, whereby the stu dents of the lower grades are grant ed facilities to bank their savings from week to week, be extended to the citizens of the Edison Com munity.

Im portant features of the service will be the enrolling of a new soldier and the commissioning of a mem ber for specific responsibility In the person of Mrs. Elsie Kramer as war cry sergeant B ARRETT BILL HAD THRILLERS Terry Brooks Put Out by Kid Williams; Great Semi- Windup Battle Those who have said that Kid Wil liams is a has been, have another think coming. The champion ban tam who has never been defeated, last night, at the Olympia A. A., Steelton, put Terry Brooks, of Nor folk, out in the third round. It was a good fight while it lasted. Wil liams used his kidney punch fre quently and wore his opponent down rapidly. This battle was scheduled to go ten rounds, but Brooks was not in William's class. The Norfolk boy took an awful punishment and tried to keep on hts feet, but these sledge hammer blows from Williams were terrific. Williams had everything j that goes to make up a champion, | speed, punch and science. His good work last night showed that there may be a reason for Herman's re tusal to meet him for the title. Another interesting bout and one that had the fans applauding almost continuously was between Little Jeff. Williams' sparring partner, and Young Fulton, of AUentown. The latter is a good boy, and had 15 pounds on Little Jeff. This did not worry the latter, who Is a flyweight. The Baltimore boy simply waded into Fulton and the latter had something to back him up too. Great Exhibition For six rounds the fans had as good an exhibition as has ever been seen in this vicinity. It was real fighting. The wiry little fighter was a big favorite. He took punishment and gave it. Fulton was clever and had a punch. These boys will meet next week at Steelton in a ten round fight. .. , ... Hal Shay went into the ring with a bad ankle and was floored by Harry Cronic, of York. While the latter is credited with a knockout. Shay's inability to keep on his feet was due to his injured ankle. Cronic did not have anything on the local b °This was all there was to the Barrett show last night, but every body was more than satisfied. Bil 'y atticks, who was to meet Jack Cleaver, of Allentown, found he was up against "Bearcat" Raymond, in stead of Cleaver, and the Allentown fighter was a little too strong for the local boy and out of his class. It was not a fair match for Atticks. Manager Joe Barrett had to cut one of his bouts to get within expenses for last night's show and the with drawal of the one bout helped him some. He was a loser as It was . The audience was small. Bar rett said he would have to take somebody oft the program and gave the spectators the opportunity to decide. He offered to give their money back to any person not satis fled, but the crowd wanted to see a battle and they were willing to keep their seats, with one bout less. The next show is scheduled for Wednesday, October 15, and will In clude a ten-round battle between Angelo and Logan, the two wild cats; and ten rounds between Young Fulton and Little Jeff. The Allen town boy agrees to reduce his weight. Baptist Bowling League In the Baptist Sunday School Bowling League yesterday, the Agoga Blue lost to Class 11. The scores: Agoga Blue J.
