Lebanon Takes Local Club's Place in
Central Pennsylvania League—

President Stees immediately got in

meet this evening to plan its entry
into league baseball. Games there
will be played on the Lebanon fair
grounds. Herehey will probably be
paired with that team on holidays in
the schedule which is now being
framed. The season will open May 1.
The Harrisburg.jteam will play in
dependent baseball during the season
but no Central Pennsylvania League
teams will play here, the league last
evening deciding on a $75 penalty for
any team playing the Harri'sburg
