Lou Dillon Famous Trotter '
Goes Into Retirement
Lexington, Ky., Oct. 30.—Lou Dil
lon, 1.681&, the first two-minute trot
ter and still the world's champion
trotting mare, has been shipped to
California, where she will spend the
balance of her days in retirement.
On the same farm, spending his days
In peace and plenty, is the black
trotting gelding, Uhlan, 1.58. He is
the world's champion trotter, all ages
and sexes included. Only one trot
ter ever secured a faster record than
Lou Dillon, it being the dead Leo
Axworthy, 1.58%, champion trotting
stallion of the world. In the fall of
1918 Lou Dillon was sent to Castle
ton farm, near Lexington, with the
Idea- of breeding her to Lee . Ax
worthy. The sudden death of the
champion made Owner C. K. G. Hil
lings' plans impossible and the
daughter of Sidney Dillon was mated
with Etawah, 2.03. She is thought
to be safely in foal, and if she pro
duces a colt in 1920 the youngster
will be presented to Frank C. Jones,
of Memphis, Tenn.
John Breckenridge Will
Not Have Cage Team
The Klein Chocolate Company
will not be repesented on the bas
ketball floor this season by a cage
five, owing to their inability to land
a suitable playing floor in Elizabeth
town.
This became known yesterday
when word was received in this
city. Manager John Breckenridge
had already signed up several stars
for his quintet and expected to put
a team on the field that would
hang up a record on a par with the
Klein baseball team. He had sign
ed such men as "Jit" Evans, Bill
Jones, Beany Shirk and Beck, of Har
risburg Tech. Practice was to have
been started in a few days. How
ever, the plans could not be carried
out and the fans will have to wait
at least another season before see
ing the Etown quintet in action.

First of all, fine tobaccos. Our own buyers

This method brings out new qualities of
flavor—a smoothness, a richness, a mellow

reason Chesterfields satisfy. -

Lebanon Valley Cripples
to Be in Saturday Game
Aiuivillc. Pa., Oct. 30. Fair
weather having come again, Leb
anon Valley's football warriors are
hard at it, making ready for next
Saturday's game with the Johns
Hopkins eleven at Baltimore. The
first workout of the week too place
on Tuesday evening and much of
that workout was devoted to the
offensive work of the line.
Last evening's workout was some
what heavier, although even then
Coach Strickler did not put his
men through any real scrimmaging
and did not require them to turn
out in regular football togs. The
genuine scrimmaging will Come to
night and to-morrow night.
Human, who had his ankle
sprained in last Saturday's game
with West Virginia Wesleyan; Scully,
the new player who hurt his left
ankle in one of his first scrimmages,
and Captain Fishburn, who has been
laid up with a severe boil on his
right ankle, are still out of the game,
although it is believed that at least
Captain Fishburn, if not the other
two, will be ready for Saturday's
game.
Pitt Protests Eligibility
of W. and J. Star
Lawson Robertson, Penn track
coach, who accompanied the Red and
Blue cross-country team to Syracuse
last Sunday, saw Washington and
Jefferson beat Syracuse 13 to 0. Rob
ertson says Henry, the giant right
tackle on the W. and J. tjleven, was
the real star of the game, although
news dispatches mentioned Halfbacks
Erickson and Ellison as the most
prominent factors in W. and J.'s vic
tory. Pittsburgh, which plays W.
and J. Saturday a week, has protested
Henry, on the ground he has played
four years of college football. W. and
J has a powerful, heavy team, accord
• Ing to Robertson, but he does not be
lieve they could beat Penn because
of their slowness.
"Charley Horse" Bothers
Harrisburg F. and M. Star
Ijancastcr, Pa., Oct. 30. Frank
lin and Marshall has been practic
ing behind closed gates for the last
few days in preparation for the gijme
with Haverford Saturday. The
team will be somewhat weaker next
Saturday, as May, the big ground
gainer, is suffering from a "Charley
Horse," and while he will start the
game he has been slowed up con
sderably and will be unable to re
peat the star performance he pulled
off on Dickinson. Truxal shows very
little improvement with his injury
and it is doubtful whether he will
be in the first lineup.
"Eddie" Kessler, a speedy half
back of the 1915-1916 teams, has
just recently returned to college
from the army and was out in foot
ball togs for the first time last night.
Kessler is fast, heavy and has more
experience than any man on the
team. lie is able to hit the line
and run the ends and will be a val
uable man as soon as Coach Dickson
is able to condition him.
Marshall is in better condition now
than at any time this season and is
expected to be a dangerous man for
Haverford. Leinbach's shoulder is
not in as bad shape as it was at first
thought and he #itl be out in a week
or two.
Despite the crippled condition of
the squad, Blue and White sup
porters are not fearing the outcome
of the game with Haverford.
McGRAW DIVIDES SPOILS
Sew York, Oct. 30. Spoils of
the season are being divided among
the clan of John McGraw. The
national commission turned over to
the Giant management $19,526.22
representing the slice of the world's
series coin awarded to the team in
each league winning second place
in the race.
The players will distribute it
among themselves on the propor
tionate rate of SBOO to each of
twenty-three players and partial
shares to other members of the
team who did not play the entire
season.

AT THE MAJESTIC
McWaters and Tyson, Harrisburg's
popular vaudeville team are coming
to the Majestic Theater the last half
of this week. This team has played
to every Keith house In America and
foreign countries. They Just return
ed from South Africa where they
were on a vaudeville tour. At sev
ral times they were nearly ship
wrecked. It may be the good for
tune of Harrlsburgers to hear some
thing about this eventful trip told In
Mr. McWaters' masterful way. Me-.
! Waters and Tyson are now present
ing an act entitled "Eyes of Vaude
ville," ar. unusually clever act ac
cording to all advance reports.
Four other Keith headliner acts
and another episode of the super
stunt serial. "The Great Gamble,
complete the Majestic offering for the
last half of the week.
"UNDER ORDERS"
One of the amazing features of
"Under Orders," the famous dramatic
novelty which A. H. Woods will P r ®"
sent at the Orpheum to-morrow night
and Saturday matinee and night, is
the number of players the author has
required to develop his powerful
story and bring about his extraordi
nary climax. It will perhaps stimu
late the interest of the reader to
realize that the author has evolved a
tremendously dramatic fovfr-act play
with as few players as it is possible
to use on the stage. The author, by
the way. is Berte Thomas, the well
known English actor and playwright.
The play was revised and elaborated
by Roi Cooper Megrue, the famous
American dra'matist.
"LETTY ARRIVES"
"Letty Arrives" is the title of L
Lawrence AVeber's first production or
the season, described as a farcical
romance In three acts by Sydne>
Rosenfcld, and which will he revealed
here at the Orpheum Theater on
Monday evening, November 3 .the en
gagement being for one night only.
While the author has designated lus
work as a "farcical romance. the
play Is really of tHtvt Hi jgH Hvof
crmedv and farce comedy
made such plays as "Adam and E\ a,
"Clarence" and "Scandal" the reign
ing successes in New A ork this sea
son. Not that "Letty Arrives" bears
anv resemblance, otherwise, to the
aforementioned plays, however M •
Rosenfeld has. it Is said, created in
the title role the character of a
voting woman quite new to the the
ater hut one who will he easily rec
ognized as the prototype of many of
cur modern young women the
young women who are beginning to
cast traditions away and who are be
ginning to think for themselves. To
tell in advance the story of any play
must needs rob the playgoer of a
considerable portion of his rights but
an idea of "Letjy's" character may
he gleaned from one of her speeches
in the play in which she* maintains
that "there must he a less terrifying
way of being settled than by getting
married."
MARGARET ANGLIN
Once again Margaret Anglin will
be seen in an emotional role when
she appears in her newest vehicle.
"The AVoman of Bronze," a modern
play by Henry Kistermaeckcrs and
Eugene Delard. which comes to the
Orpheum on Tuesday evening. Her
undertaking in "The Woman of
Bronze" promises to be the best in
Miss Anglin's career. It is a role in
which her compelling personality and
her high artistic sense of dramatic
values arc given full sway. Depart
ing from "light comedy, to which she
hais given her time the last two sea
sons, Miss Anglin will return to the
emotional drama. 11l which probably
she is best known. Last season in
"Billeted" she was happy in making
her audiences laugh, this season in
"The AVoman of Bronze" she will he
delighted when she tugs at the heart
strings of her audience and gains
their approval in an emotional role.
In the supporting east will be seen
Fred Eric, Edna AA'alton, Langdon
Bruce. Harriet Sterling, Gerald
Hamer and others.
Jim Braden Tears Off
Fast Seventy-Five-Yard
Dash From Forward Pass
Now Ilavon, Conn., Oct. 30. A
75-yard run by Jim Braden after he
had intercepted a forward pass made
by a scrub back, featured a ions:,
hard drill for the Yale football
players yesterday. There were scrim
mages against the second 'Varsity
and the first college teams and the
'Varsity scored once against each
opponent.
A blocked kick put the 'Varsity in
a position to score against the second
'Varsity, Joe Neville taking the ball
over. . Bradcn's long run took him
to the scrubs' 5-yard line and Neville,
who is the best scoring back Yale
has, went over the goal line again.
Kempton, the brilliant quarterback,
was given another day of rest as it
was feared he was getting a trifle
stale. Chiqk Neville ran the team
and made a good understudy.
Captain Callahan followed the
work of the 'Varsity closely from a
position near the scrimmage line.
Hamill took his place ngain, the
center. Webb also seems to have
the call at fullback over Braden
as he started the afternoon's prac
tice, but was relieved later by
Braden. Lay, the halfback, who is
Again rounding into fine shape after
a lay-off because of injuries, did
good work at left half.
The 'Varsity lineup was Rein
hardt, left end; Kirkpatrlck, left
tackle; Senner, left guard; Hamill,
center; Gait, right guard; Walker,
right tackle; ShevUn, right end'

of Mix photodrama. !
A bit feature of the play is the
wrecking of Mix's auto in a great:
