SPORTING NOTES

Lemoyne is booked for four games
this week, three away, one with the
Methodist club at home. Dillsburg,
Middletown and Duncannon is the it.
inerary.
The infield has given the Reading
leader a lot of trouble and many of
the games were dropped because the
inner garden men were unable to
hit in a crisis.
Some fight critics now claim Fred
Welsh's victory to be due to the
fact that he is a vegetarian.
Chabek, of Harrisburg, is the pitch
ing star with a great record of fifteen
victories and but one defeat. On Sat-
urday Chabek won his fifteenth
straight game by defeating Hoffman's
Pretzels.

Hooper to Shake
Up Red Roses Soon

Lancaster, Pa, July 14.-Follow-
ing the inexcusable dropping of three
straight games to Allentown, Man
ager Hooper, of the Red Roses, is
going to clean house next week. Sew
eral important changes in the lineup
will be announced on Monday, before
the game with Reading. The work
of Lidgate, behind the bat has not
been up to- standard and the pitching
department is also weak.
Milliman is overworked and Owens
has proved failure. Lane is a good
pitcher but is not reliable. He takes
balloon ascensions when least expect
ed Wertz is not fast enough for
Tri-State ball and he will probably
be among those left go.

mond and gridiron sports originating
in the mind of Herman Brosoweska,
director of the board of education's s
model playground center, was con-
ceived to satisfy 200 schoolboys.
A very large, but light. ball is used.
The pitcher tosses the ball to the
batter at a level of one foot above
the ground. Football tactics are en-
ployed by the batter, who kicks the
ball. The usual rules for fielding and
base running are used A runner is
called out only when he has been hit
fairly with the ball.

passage of law by the Pennsylvania
State Legislature providing for licens-
ing architects.
Laws have been placed on the
statute books in other States requiring
architects to take rigid examination
before they can follow their profess
sion and a similar statute is favored
by the members of the Southern
Pennsylvania chapter.
Other matters of vital importance
to the architect and his client were
discussed at last nights meeting
which was presided over by B. F.
Willis, president. The Southern Penn
sylvania chapter includes fourteen
counties. A dinner preceded the busi-
ness meeting.
Four meetings are held each year

Aero Club Confident
Lieutenant Porte Can
Complete Long Flight

New York, July 1.-THE record
made on Saturday last by Reinhold
Boehm at Johnannisthal when he re-
mained in the air for "a hours and IL
minutes and flew a distance of 1850
miles, has caused members of the
Aero Club to feel more confident than
ever that Lieut.. Porte will accomplish
his proposed Atlantic flight in the air
boat America. Boehm used an ordi-
nary biplane in his flight and the fact
that it was not equipped for an en-
durance test is an indication accord
ing to Henry Woodhouse of the Aero
Club that the America with her spe-
cial equipment will be able to carry
Lieut. Porte to the Azores without
mishap. The route to be followed by
Lieut. Porte to the Azores is lao
miles or some 210 miles less than the
distance covered by Boehm.
