HARRISBURG GRID FANS TO
SEE COLLEGE CLASSIC AT
ISLAND FIELD SATURDAY
Harrisburg grid fans will mobilize
Saturday at Island Park. The annual
football game between Bucknell and
Gettysburg is scheduled for that
date. This is the important battle
of the year between these teams. It
will bring to Harrisburg several
thousand from other cities. The
game is scheduled for 3 o'clock.
Coach Reynolds gave his squad of
tired players a rest yesterday. After
the hard game with Syracuse and.
the long, tiresome trip he declared a
holiday so that his men would be
lit to start a week of strenuous work
to-day. None of Bucknell's squad j
was seriously hurt at Syracuse, and |
barring accidents in practice this
week, Captain Hendren's team j
should bo in fine fettle for the fray j
with Gettysburg.
Expect Hard Game
The clean-cut victory of Oettys
burg over Villanova last Saturday, at j
York, more than ever causes Buck- !
nell to realize they will have d man- .
sized job on their hands at Island !
Park. Coach Wood's pupils have I
overcome all opponents, since the I
opening game with Penn State, with j
alarming regularity. As no oppon
ent, save State College, has been able
to dent Gettysburg's defense far
this season, there is abundant rea
son for anxiety along that line by
Bucknell.
Last night the first student sale
of tickets was held at Bucknell and
more than 2000 undergraduates pur
chased their cards and seat tags. An
other sale will be held on Wodnes- j
day night, and it is believed that i

Local Boxing Association
Invites Women to Shows;
Will Reserve Seat Section
Boxing has taken its place among
the other great American sports such
as football, baseball and basketball
and bids fair to outrank them all.
As such it is no longer exclusively a
man's sport. .Women are in many
cities showing as keen an interest
as are men folks and shows usually
find a generous sprinkling of the
gentler sex in the audience. Dave
■McConnell, business manager of the
Harrisburg Boxing Association, leal
izes the conditions and he has ar
ranged to have one sect'on of (lie
Chestnut Street Auditorium reserv
ed for women and their escorts on
Thursday evening, November 13,
when the Harrisburg Boxing Asso
ciation will hold its next entertajn
ment there.
The local association has already
conducted two shows here this fall
and the splendid manner in which
they were conducted, assures first
class accommodations for the wo
men. What looks like the best till
yet offered will be presented next
Thursday night.
Happy Feet Make a
Happy Man
Of course a man with perfectly comfortable feet may
have his troubles, but we'll wager that there's scarcely any
thing that will make a man feel so mean and out-of-sorts
as aching, burning feet.
Some men endure them for a while; then they learn
about Orner's shoes. Stop in an-d let us show you how
they will stop your foot troubles.

ceding almost ten pounds, Benny
Leonard, world's champion light
weight boxing champion, easily de
feated Soldier Bartfield, of Brock-
I lyn, in an eight-round contest at the
Fourth Regiment Armory, here last
h night. Leonard weighed 136 Vi and
Bartfield 146. Leonard rained
punches upon his heavier opponent
throughout the bout and took the
honors in every round.
A wild swing that landed on the
champion's head sent him to the
ropes in the fifth session, but he re
covered quickly and was back again
sending fast rights and lefts to Bart
field's head. In the sixth and seventh
rounds, Leonard scored a half dozen
hard rights to the head but too high
to be effective.

LOCAL MANAGERS
SEEK PATRONAGE
Anxious to Give Fight Fans
the Best Possible at
Little Profit
Harrisburg fight fans are saying
i many good things about the Harris
burg Boxing Association. This or
ganization has set out to give pa
trons the best that can be had with
no desire to declare a large divi
dend at the end of the season. The
men back of this association are in
the game for the sport and to put
Harrisburg on the map as a city
that backs legitimate ring shows. If
they quit even local officials have
no kick coming.
For the show Thursday night a
great bill is promised, and in addi
tion the seat prices have been cut
down so that the highest priced
tickets will be fewer than at any
show held here, and popular prices
will prevail for the balance of the
seats, with a low price for the gal
lery.
Three six-round bouts between
boys who have been tried and found
satisfactory, and a main event of
ten rounds makes up the show. Bo
ca! fans are interested in the career
of K. O. Casey, the Harrisburg lad
who scored two consecutive knock
outs at the last two shows. He is on
again, but this time he will likely
find that he will have his hands full.
His opponent will be "Battling"
Deemer, a Reading glove wielder.
Fighting Greek
"Batting" Paskos, the "Fighting
Greek," Vs another bantamweight
wha will be welcomed here. He also
comes from Reading. He appears in
the main preliminary against" Fight
ing" Dick Gotwalt, a game little bat
tler from York.
In the semifinal, Young Zaring,
whose battle with Joe McCarron
here impressed the local critics
highly with his ability, meets Andy
Smith, a fast and clever Wilkes-
Barre lightweight.
In the final number of ten rounds,
Tim Droney, of Lancaster, prime
favorite in this city, meets Tommy
Jamison, of Philadelphia.
Big War Athletics Bill
For War Service Equipment
Furnished Army and Navy
For the use of the Army and Navy
during the war the Y. M. C. A.
bought $2,785,196 in athletic equip
ment and its officials said that they
believed this to have been the larg
est order of its kind ever placed by
a single organization. The figure rep
resented goods that were given away
in foreign countries and does not
include the quantities disposed of
in the camps at home.
Of this enormous bill 80 per cent,
was distributed between January 1
and Juno 30, 1919. Soldiers in Si
beria, in Belgium, France, Italy,
England or the Near East received
their quota of supplies.
Baseball heads the list. No less
than 1,078,191 separate articles of
baseball paraphernalia go to make
up the list, and the bill for this ran
to $1,434,528.67. League balls total
ed 719.174, and indoor baseballs, 47,-
004. In the matter of bats, the in
voice shows 115,913 for outdoor wil
lows and 21,926 for indoor lum
ber.
The sum of $364,272.64 was paid
for football equipment. For boxing
gloves, a few medicine balls punch
ing balls, wrestling mats, etc., an
expenditure of $207,678.50 was
made. Busketball was the fourth
largest item with a total of $195,-
094.66.
The grand total for these four
sports enumerated was $2,201,574.47,
leaving a balance of $315,537.80
which was divided among equipment
for tennis, golf, polo, volleyball, cage
ball, ping pong, quoits, track and
field sports, bowling ,and the inci
dentals necessary for officials such
as whistles, stop watches, mega
phones.
Quite separate and distinct from
another department of recreation
known as "parlor games" and ini
cluding cards, checkers, and domi
noes, which are listed under the
"hut equipment" department, the
above figures comprise expenditures
from the athletic department only.
Too Many Gr'd Rules Is
Opinion of Three Veterans
Del Monte, Cal., Nov. 11. That
too many rules exist in football as
played to-day was the opinion voiced
here over the weekend, when three ,
famous old stars of the gridiron got !
together in a fanning bee. There j
were Jim Itodgers, who was a cele- |
brated tackle for Yale in 1897; B. L.
Thane, quarterback for the Cali
fornia eleven which defeated Stan
ford in 1898, and Sam Morse, the
sturdv halfback who captained Yale
in 1906.
"I do not believe that football pos
sesses that same interest and attrac
tiveness that was the case some years
ago," aid Thane. "The trouble, to
my way of thinking, is that eo many
rules have been manufactured that
the opportunities for a variety of
plays is necessarily limited, The
initiative of a player is curtailed be
cause of the predominance of ao
many rules, When we wore playing
the game we were permitted more
latitude in carrying the ball, and I
believe that wo put on more at
tractive contests for the spectators."

BILLY ANGELO
If Joe Barrett continues to give
fight fans as big a run for their
money as he did last night, he will
have to build a new hall in Steelton
to take care of the crowds. It was
the greatest exhibition seen in this
vicinity in many days. One continu

ing comedy. When the show was
over patrons shouted "keep up the

lated him personally. No club in the
cast has ever had anything on last
night's exhibition at the Olympia A.
A., Steelton.

round battle between Billy Angelo
of York and Cyclone (Cy) Smith, of
Newark, N. J. It was the fiercest

the finish Smith's lace looked like
a hum burger steak, while Angelo
was bleeding nt the nose and had an
ugly cut under his right eye. Smith's
eyes were almost closed. Both fight
ers too. haul punishment, but it
must be said that Smith stood hard
lor beating than any other fighter
seen here.
