SQUABBLE IS ON
OVER ATTENDANCE
WiIlidmSpOrt Insists Her Team
Drew Better Than Harris
burg Last Year

For some reason unknown, unless II is
that Willamsport has always been able
TO keep Harrisburg's championship aspi-
rations down where they belong, says the
Williamsport Gazette the Harrisburg
papers have for the past two years been
harping upon the attendance at Williams
port and only yesterday the Patriot took
occasion to point out that Harrisburg was
FIRST IN average attendance and VIII ans
port was last
We'll, that may be true. We don't know
that but we do know that Harrisburg IS
the last town on the circuit which should
make complaint because. according to the
official figures Harrisburg does not lose
anything in Williamsport and here are
the figures TO prove it:
In 1907 Williamsport received si,534.24 for
playing nine games in Harrisburg and
Harrisburg received Si.47So7 for playing
eight games In Wnliamsport In other
words Williamsport received an average
of Sl1l.W for It's games in Harrisburg and
Harrisburg received an average OF $ist7;
for its games here. Harrisburg received
an average per game Of sl371 more in
Williamsport than the Champions re-
celved In Harrisburg or a net average Of
Slo96S more for the season than the SEN
ators paid the Champions
In 1905 the number Of games PLAYED in
each city was the same. Harrisburg paid
the Champions Sl2J3.59 for games played
in Harrisburg and received SiO7i.s7 for
games played in williamsport but Will
Transport played two Saturdays in Har-
here and that will account for som, of the
difference
Waving that fact. however, for the
sake OF dealing with the figures as thew
exist and you have Williamsport receiving
SiS2s6 more in Harrisburg than she paid
the Senators.
Truly the Patriots statement tha "The
attendance figures alone show that Har-
risburg with the same ratio OF attendance
win do the major part towards the sup
port OF the league and most Of the teams
next season" hardly applies to Williams
port. even though she may have the low
est figure OF attendance for that siS2 81
would not pay the salaries OF the Cham
pions for many months even at the $500
limit.
Taking the hSurcs OF the TWO years
averaging 1907 as given above because Of
the uneven number OF games. and YOU
viii sec that Harrisburg was overpaid
NOoeS in 1901 and Williamsport was over
paid siS2.36 or s72.6S moro paid to VIII
Transport IN two years than W1lams-
port returned and that at - cents adj
mission. represents 800 men and two boys
as tho excess OF attendance at Harrisburg
over that at Wlliamsport in two years
That is not such bad showing. par
ticuarly when YOU stop to think that the
last official census gave Harrisburg a
population Of 5Oi6s and williamsport a
population of 2s.757.
Harrisburg had better let somebody else
point out that they are drawing more
than Willamsport

LOCKERS FOR MATINEE HATS
Manager Of Paris Theatre Provides
Them for Patrons.

clever theatrical manager in Paris
has found a way of solving the matt
nee hat question which has been vex-
ing that city says Town and Country.
II has all along been urged. and with
reason, that a hat costing over 500
should not be left i'm tho cloak room
with sticks and overcoats
NJ. Gemier, who manages the Theatre
Antoine appreciated the reasonable
ness Of this argument and has pleased
the women of Paris by catering to
their hats Instead Of ordering them out
Of the theatre when they refused to
leave them i'm the cloakroom
He has lined tho corridors of his
playhouse with pigeonholes and fitted
mirrors at convenient places. Every
lady on hooking her seat gets key
which fts tho pigeonhole allotted 10
her place. and she can thus rest as
sured that her latest piece of millinery
will not suffer This is far wiser
ARRANGEMENT than rising in wrath
against the matinee hat for nowadays
there is often good deal of coiffure
attached TO hat and the locker sys-
tenn keeps the secret.

OPPOSES THE Low
SALARY Limit
Critic Says Fans Now Have
Right to Ask for I5-Cent
Games

During the meeting of the Tri- State
League some interesting gossip was
heard concerning the attendance in tho
various cities during the season and
some OF the amounts that several Of
the clubs lost during the season says
the Harrisburg Patriot.
In the matter OF attendance Harris
burg led the league with good mar
GIN with Johnstown second and Lam
caster third. Willlamsport. the pom
nant winner was a poor last, Harris
burg registered an average daily at
tendance Of ,25S. while Williamsport's
was scarcely over zoo.
In the case Of losses every club had
something Of shortage ON their
books but perhaps Willamsport and
Altoona suffered the greater losses Al
though Williamsport lost money during
the entire season when IL was brought
60 a close the hackers had to dig down
In their pockets and made up 5000
This amount was independent of tho
so. TOO received from the sale of play
ers to major league clubs.
The Altoona situation was somewhat
different ON August n now backing
took over the Altoona franchise and
when they finished the season and had
paid up back salaries and other bills
they found that they had put up s6,7i0
T for just little over months man
agement of The Mountaineers.
These were few of the circum-
stances which brought about the great
cut in tho salary limit and the read
justment Of the guarantee system in
order that the weaker drawing towns
on the circuit would profit and be car
ried along by the good things they met
ON the road. The attendance figures
alone show that Harrisburg with the
same ratio of attendance viii do tho
