Harrisburg Tossers
Will Meet York Five

Harrisburg tossers will go to York
Wednesday night for the fourth game
in the series with the All-Collegians
of York.
Harrisburg has won two and York
one of the games played so far this
season. The White Roses are going
to do their best, it is said, to win the
game here this week. If fifth game
is necessary, the toss of coin will
decide on which floor 1t will be play
ed The York Daily says:
The Harrisburg team will need no
introduction to York fans, for those
who witnessed the game here earlier
in the season admit it was one of the
best played at the Coliseum this year.
The York lineup has been greatly
strengthened by the addition of Bred
benner and there is no reason why it
will not be able to prolong the series.
Bredbenner will be with the locals for
the remainder of the season, accord
ing to Manager Gardner last night.
1t was also announced that Ralph
Barnes will rejoin the team this week
and will replace j. Cole at guard
Cole was obtained to play at center,
but Manager Gardner is perfectly sat
isfied with the work of dusty Bred
benner and will not keep the Harris
burg man."

Allentown Fighter
Draws With Kilbane

Philadelphia, Feb Eddie Nov,
the pride of Allentown, realized his
ambition last night in the same ring
OF the Olympia A. A., where less than
month ago his featherweight aspi-
rations were sidetrar ed in the fifth
round of a scheduled six session set
to by Champion Johnny Kilbane, the
little man with the big wallop. This
time Moy stayed the limit with the
title holder and for so doing he was
carried from the rosin boards to his
dressing room on the shoulders of his
advisers.
To go through six rounds of mill
Ing with the Kilbane fighting machine
was as much as a victory for Nov
despite the fact that the champion
clearly demonstrated that he was a
more finished exponent of the art of
self defense.

PRESIDENT GRAHAM
PLANNING BIG TRIP
viii Boost the Game in Every City
on the Tri-State
Circuit

, Plans for a visit to every city on
the Tri-State circuit have not been
completed by President George Gra-
ham. He is now in communication
with the various owners and repre-
sentatives as to the most convenient
time for the trip and expects to an
nounce his schedule within the next
few days.
President Graham has notified Read
ing and Trenton that he will assist
them if necessary in trying to locate
good men.
The one big Improvement in con-
.ditions this season which will be of
great help to managers will be the
elimination of the individual salary
limit of $3.50. President Graham
wants it cut out and is of the opinion
that 1T will prove a great help to the
Tri-State game. as there will be more
experienced players remain in the Tri-
State ranks this season and less like
lihood of other leagues getting their
services by reason of better offers.
On the question of an increased
limit President Graham will not COM
NIT himself until he hears from all
owners and representatives. There
may be a slight increase in order to
be able to compete with other leagues
in the same class as the Tri-State.
