MANY MISS SUPPER
FOR BASEBALL GAME
Motive Power Team Wins From
Lucknow Stars in Thirteenth
Inning; Many Sensations

Scores Of PENNSYLVANIA Railroad
employees went to work last night
without supper. Some did not even
have a chance to get home for their
working clothes. 1t was all on ac-
count of a thirteen inning baseball
game at Island Park. The Motive
Power team played a star aggregation
from Lucknow League, and won out
score to 5.
The game was featured with stunts
that caused many heart jumps. Sem
sational plays came so fast that the
spectators forgot all about working
hours. The Mutual Beneficial As
ISOLATION band added to the enthusiasm
with lively selections.
Garverich and Gilday were the
stars. The Motive Power team had
Garverich. He had the goods, keeping
hits we'll scattered. There were errors
back of him that helped in running up
up a score. He famed ten men. Nc
Closky went into the game after
Lucknow had tied the score in the
ninth. He pitched effective ball until
the thirteenth inning.
In the final round Pendergast famed
Marks singled, Nelley sacrificed him
to second and he scored when Hoover
drove out a timely clout. Zeigler,
Lutz and Murphy starred for Luck
now and Garverich, Gerdes and
Hoover for Motive Power.

MANAGERS SEEK MEN
FROM MACK RANKS
viii Ask No Waivers; viii Sell to
Highest Bidder; Detroit
After Schang
Special to The Telegraph

Philadelphia, July 1.-The many re-
ports that Connie Mack plans to make
thorough cleanup of his players has
started almost every manager in the
American League bidding for the men
who are supposed to be for sale. On
account of the publicity given about
the players Mack placed on the waiver
list recently the Athletics manager will
not ask for any more waivers. but will
make outright sales of the men he in
tends to dispose of and no one Will
know who these men are until Mack is
ready to give out the news himself.
Hughie Jennings is after .Wallie
Schang. star catcher of the Philadel-
phia Athletics.
so far as the Detroit club is con-
cerned. no official word of Mack's in
tentions regarding the further disinte-
grafton of the 1914 championship ma
chine has been received" declared
Jennings yesterday. However, if Mack
intends to put Barry, Schang and some
of the other veterans on the block, we
shall enter with bid. 1t will be a
bid of cash or players, or both.
"Schang is good catcher, although
not as dependable a receiver as Schalk
| of the White Sox. Schang would fit in
pretty we'll with the Detroit team. He
is an aggressive baseball player, a good
| hitter, a fast runner and when going
we'll capable receiver. Schang is 3
| slightly better hitter than Schalk and
a faster base runner, but he is not
nearly so good a man in handling the
pitchers and getting their best work

HARRISBURG TEAM IS
AFTER ANOTHER FLAG
Indians" Good Enough For Any
Town Says Providence
Writer

The Harrisburg Indians in making
their bow to Harrisburg fans to-mor-
row will start a real fight for cham
pionship honors. At present Provi-
dence is leading the league. but does
not have a cinch on the race. The
days. When they left Newark, Man
ager Eddie Zimmerman told the play
ers to give up their boarding places.
That Harrisburg Internationals have
a chance for the pennant is the opinion
of every sporting writer on the circuit.
Here is what Harry Sandager says in
the Sporting News under Providence,
r. l., date:
Indians a Good Team
The Indians are a good enough club
for any town, in my estimation. The
only reason l can account for their
low standing is that the players have
been dispirited by the lack of support
az home. No club in the International
has shortstop whose work approaches
that of Move. and Clarence Kraft is
one of the hardest sluggers that has
ever been seen in Providence, not even
barring the big leaguers. a week ago,
when Newark beat Providence 8 to Z,
Kraft, with two homers, batted in
three runs and scored two himself.
The first blow cleared the 24-foot
fence in left field, the first time this
feat has ever been accomplished. 1t
was the longest drive seen in Provi-
dence in the memory of the oldest
fans
The Newark club does not seem to
have actually changed hands. after all.
1t appears that the Ebbets still own
the club. and have merely put in
Medicus and Solomon as agents. This
story is officially denied, but persons
on the inside declare this to be a fact.
Perhaps this belief has handicapped
the club. as the Brooklyn owners, de-
spite the fact that they gave the town
pennant in the 1913 season, are not
| popular.
Newark is not the only city in the
Barrow wheel which is not drawing
well, however. Jersey City and Rich
mond have had disappointing attend
ance and Montreal and Toronto folk
and people of nearby towns in Canada
are too absorbed in war to give Inter-
national baseball its proper attention.
Providence is drawing far better than
any other town, and for good reason,
of course. Buffalo is doing fairly we'll
ard Rochester may pick up on its next
| series of games at home"

Professor Leo Rowe. head of the
political science department of the
University of Pennsylvania, has come
out strongly against the dismissal Of
Professor Scott Nearing, of the Whar-
ton School of Finance of the univer-
sity, whose teachings on political
economy got him into trouble The
dismissal of Professor Nearing has
aroused many teachers in the univer-
sity, and some of them have vigor-
ously denounced the action.
"I can imagine no greater harm to
the university than the creation of an
impression throughout the country
that there is any restraint on the
freedom of teaching" declared DIR.
Rowe. "It is disheartening to find
those entrusted with the administra-
ton of the university's affairs taking
action which reflects upon the repu-
tation of the institution.
1.-The summary dismissal of Pro-
fessor Nearing deprives the univer-
sity of the services Of one of her most
devoted sons and efficient teachers,
and his dismissal, coming so soon
after his advancement to an ASST
ant professorship, calls 70 ran inves-
tigation. The people of the entire
country have a real interest in the
administration of every higher insti-
tuition of learning. and it is no ans
wer to say that the University OF
Pennsylvania is a private institution
Inquiries received from the diff
ferent sections of the country indi-
cate that national opinion is aroused
by this action. Within the institution
widespread dissatisfaction exists
partly by reason of the injustice done
to Professor Nearing, but mainly be-
cause of the injury done to the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania. It is now
the duty of every loyal son of the
university to do his share in repair
ing the injury.

JAPANESE BANDAGE WIDELY
USED ~ EUROPEAN WAR

The triangular bandage first intro
duced by the Japanese during the
Russo-Japanese war is now being
widely used in the European war. It
has been found that bandages of this
type are suitable for binding up
wounds in any part of the body and
that one can be carried by each SOL
dier without inconvenience. The Ger
mans improved it by printing on the
bandage itself In sterilized ink, va
rious figures showing how 1t is to be
applied The British war office then
adopted the idea, and every British
soldier now carries one of the printed
bandages in a special pocket of his
tunic. This bandage is often applied
without assistance by the wounded
soldier. A picture fthe bandage is a
feature of the July Popular Mehcan.

HEN ROLLS THE EGGS BACK
Wyandotte Chicken Makes Owner
Stop Saving Wood SO

Winsted, Conn.-Michael L. L. Dane
by was puzzled when he found six
hens eggs on a pile of sawdust at
his wood saving plant after the gaso-
line-driven power had been running
short time.
Through the sawdust-f1lled air came
two more eggs as he debated. He shut
off the power to learn If possible where
the eggs came from. Presently one of
his Wyandotte hens appeared. Finding
one of the eggs she rolled 1t to nest
which she had made in "V''-shaped box
where the exhaust from the engine
carries away the sawdust
One by one the hen rolled the eggs
Westward. She then resumed setting
The exhaust engine had swept the nest
clean of eggs. Mr.. Daneby has temper
arily suspended operations at the mill
so that the hen can finish her work.

Municipal Control.

The great difficulty with municipal
control of public utilities does not lie
In graft and in political evils of chat
character, as so often stated, but lies
In the shifting responsibility Of chang.
ing administration, so likely to change
the policy of the plant and to upset
smooth running In other words, 1t
lies In getting business administra-
ton for the plant which to be success
full must be run in businesslike way.
Politics should not have anything to
do with the operation of the plant, yet
politics is bound to, If it be a munich
pal plant. Even city water depart
ments today are not on a good bust
ness basis and they have long been
under political control, and are far
less difficult to handle. Until we have
a business form of government we
cannot hope to have successful munich
pal plants-that is, as successful as
they should be, for many such plants
are fairly successful now.

that he could be taken suddenly sick

the fraud was discovered.

was seized with fake pains.

Gamblers Luck or German Skll7
In one of Mr. Fosters clever card
playing stories he explains the advan-
tage the veteran gambler has over the
novice by reason of his superior expe-
rience and nerve.
One Of these characteristics, Mr..
Foster says, is that when the expert
sees a train of good luck coming his
way, he puts his money down all over
the board and reaps a harvest of skill
and bravery, ''pinching" his bets when
luck goes against him; whereas the
ty-o will lose as much In his unlucky
streaks as he makes in his more IA
vored moments.
Perhaps this Is nothing more than
grand strategy" which is just now so
much In evidence in the German mill
tary movements. While the allies
British, French and Russian-are com.
planning that they have no ammunition
for the men they already have in the
field, and while reverses on both battle
fronts are explained by this shortage

old German Bible bound in leather

much interest, as 1t contains portraits
Of the reigning Protestant princes OF
Germany during the early days Of the
Reformation.
There are full-page steel engravings
and while there is general sameness
in the lines of the faces, indicating
that the artist was not particularly
skillful in making portraits, the cos

The book was published in 1928
from the translations into German of
the Hebrew and Greek editions of the
Old and New Testaments.
