The system of having to call balls and strikes only otico in every four games makes lhe work even lighter than it was a few years back, and the pay has been doubled in the last five years. It is hard to imagine more of a sinecure than standing at the end of a foul line and judging balls batted near lhe line. Neither league has any regular or der for assigning the umpires for the world's series. An umpire is likely to be called upon for four successive series, as has happened to Bill Klein, or he may never get the coveted assignment. Bob Knislie, who has been in the Na !ional .league for the last -4 seasons, nas as yet to make his first decision in i world's series, and the same goes for Mai Eason, who has been calling balls Hid strikes in the senior organization for the last seven seasons. lu the American League the work has been divided up better among the veteran umpires. Chill is the only of ficial in Ban Johnson's organization who has 'lot figured In the autumn melon and he ranks as a newcomer. Connolly. O 'Loughlin, Kvans, Din ecu and Kgan have all drawn assignments for this work. Following is a record of the world's series umpiring by officials who are still in the two major leagues: Conuolly, 1903, 1 90S, 1910, 1911, 1913; Kleni', 1908, 1909, 1911, 1912, 1913, 1914; O'Loaghliu. 190G, 1909. 1912; Rigler, 1910, 1912, 1913; Dincen, 1911. 1914; Kvans, 1909, 1912; Kgan, 3.913; Hil 'cbrnud.-19 14; Byron, 1911. For "several years SSOO was the sum paid to the umpires who worked in the world's series and in the four scries between the National and American League pennant winners between 1903 and 1907. inclusive, only two umpires were assigned to each scries. In 190S four umpires were name 1 for the series between the Cubs and Tigers, and this number has been continued since that lime. The remuneration was raised from SSOO to $750 some years back, and at the close of the 1912 series between the Sox and the Giants, the pay was i'ised to SI,OOO per umpire. In this series Kleni ami iliglcr were the Na tional League umpires, while Kvans ami O'Luughliu represented the Amer ican League. They went through the eight games with liardh a murmur against a decision.

Third St. 11 (WHiw i "WHERE THE STYLES ORIGINATE' f I 1 ' ——* HARRISBURO STAR-INDEPENDENT, THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 19. 1914, UNIQUE FOOTBALL CAME FOR CHARITY IS PLANNED Carlisle Indians Will Play a Team Composed of Former Stars at Fen- j way Park, Boston, on November 28 i Boston, Nov. 19. —An interesting, i wind-up to the football season in Bos-| | ton will be the game to be played at. i Fenway Park, on Saturday afternoon, ' November 28, when the Carlisle lu • dian football eleven will be. opposed > by an all-star team composed of form I er players from the leading Eastern j universities. The game will be for i>har , i ity, the proceeds going to the Ohi 1-: r drcn's Island Sanitarium, with a small j er percentage to the American Red j | Cross. t | This contest was arranged last | : spriug. when contracts were signed by I Glenn Warner, the Carlisle football di'| ! rector and President Lannin, of the 1 Boston American League Club. War at j that time had been thought of and j when the proposition was made that, ■ the Red Cross share equally it was found impossible on account of the contracts already signed. The' v latter, however, will receive a percentage. As a football game the coming con i test should prove of more than ordi- I nary interest. The Indians are always ! popular in New England and formerly' attracted thousands when they played j against Harvard. The last Saturday in the month they will face many Har vard players whom they have met on the gridiron in the past. | For the All-IStars, Hamilton Fish | will act as captain and the former Har- I vard leader will get into the game at ! his old position of tackle. The players j from the New York district will be j coached bv Fish, and the finishing j touches will be put on at his country : home at Garrison, on the Hudson. The j players about Boston will be coached ! lin the same formations and with the j same signals by Harry Gardner, the] ! Harvard quarterback of last year's ! team. A week before the game the full j squad will get together and the best I men will be selected to start the game | against the Indians. The players will ! be taken iu hand by Percy Haughton after the Harvard-Yale game for their i final polishing. Some of the most noted , football players of the East will get into the j game, and the old-timers are very anxious to resume gridiron activity. So i many have volunteered that it is likely j that practically a new eleven will play in each period for the All-Stars. Tn i addition to Fish an * Gardner, Ted Coy. I the great Yale captain of 1910, will be in the line-up, with "llobcy" Bak er, of Princeton, and "Tol" Pendle : ton, captain of the Tigers in 1912. and Philbin, of Vale. Dartmouth will be represented among others by S'her ! win, and Williams by Wadsworth. the former quarterback. Other New Eng land colleges also are expected to be represented iu the final make-up of the i eleven. Harvard, naturally, will have the larger representation, and in addi -1 tion to those named there will be Pat [ Grant, one of the first of the roving j centers; Minot, the great plunging j back; Percy and ,I«ek Wendell; Vic \ Kennard, whose, drop kick defeated ' Yale at New Haven in 1908; Crawford I Blagden, the Crimson tackle of more I than a decade ago; Huntington, Hitch j cock, Wigglesworth, Parkinson, Dick I Lawrence and the Withington broth- I crs, Paul and Lothrop, both captains I in their senior years at Harvard. As Harvard's varsity will have played its last game of' the season, j many of this year's te.ini will be avail able for the All-Stars, which should. ; therefore, be a formidable .organiza tion physically and in the knowledge j of fundamental football. While team ! play will be impossible to obtain in | the short time available for the play ers to lie together, the eleven should be able to give the Indians a great hat i tie. Open play probably will bo the feature of the contest, as this is the style at which the Redskins are at ! their best.

OXY-ACETYLENE CUTTING i Oi;e of the Scientific Wonders Exhibited at Chestnut Street Auditorium While in this country recently a rep resentative of the Belgian government remarked that he was amazed at our waste which, without doubt, is so great that it would tal;e care of all his voun try's wants. About ten years ago the process of Oxy-Acetylene cutting and welding was introduced into this country lor the wit ting of wrought iron and steel and weld ing nil kinds of metals. To-da.v this pro cess is being UB«V1 very extensively in all large steel plants," railroad stoops, ship building yards, structural plants, boiler shops, steel foundries, in fact all plants engaged in the manufacture of metals and others who have any amount of repairs to make. Oxy-Acetvlene welding is saving thousands of dollars annually solely in repairs to broken parts of machinery which in the past were Hold as scrap. Railroad shops are establishing reclama tion plants -where they repair many parts which formerly were scrapped. [ The I'risco lines have established an up to-date reclamation plant at one of their shops and in six months showed ail average saving of six thousand dollars 1 per month with their Oxv-Acetylene cut ting and welding outfit. A 'big steel com ■ pany by using the Oxy-Acetylene pro -1 cess in repairing twenty-five boilers saved $-0,000 over the old method and eaich 'boiler was out of commission only three d«vs against three month's by the old method. The 'big steel bridge which collapsed during construction at Cjuelbec 1 cut into charging box size ami returned to this country as scrap. It was the Oxy-Acetylene cutting 'blow pipe that ' made it possible to remove Hie 'battle ship Maine from Havana harbor, it would have been impossible to remove 1 the Maine in any other way. 1 The Pennsylvania railroad has an !
