FIELD DAY At
HARTMAN WAS
A GREAT SUCCESS
Alfalfa Metropolis Entertains
Crowds for Many Miles
Around.

Hartman did herself proud last
Saturday.
From early morn until mid
night there was something doing,
and eager crowds from every d.
rection came on trains, in autos
and other vehicles, and some
a-horseback to see how hospitable
Hartman could be-and they
didn't depart disappointed,
either.
In connection with Field Day, ="
| which has become a recognized
feature in Hartman, there were
agricultural exhibits and machin-
cry exhibits galore, not forgetting
the splenid handiwork in the Art
display.
F. M. Wilson of the D. A. M.
& P. Co. was the master of sere-
monies, acquitting himself in a
manner pleasing to the assembled
throngs.
Every event, from the bicycle
race to the bucking COW, was
pulled off in record time, and the
days program went through
without a hitch.
The baseball game between
Granada and Coolidge was a
closely contested one, resulting
in a score Of AZ in favor of Cool
idge.
The horse races, wagon and
buggy races and the broncho
busting were features highly
creditable to the entertainment,

ONE RAY OF HOPE
COMES TO TRI-STATE
Atlantic League Out Of BuSi-
ness; No Farms for New
York State Teams
BILL COUGHLIN
SPEAKS OUT

One little ray Of hope appeared on
the Tri-State horizon today. An
nouncement that the Atlantic League
would not be doing business this sea-
son means also that the New York
State League farms will be cut out
Manager Bill Coughlin, OF Scranton,
looks TO the Tri-State as a life-Saver.
Who will be the one to get busy
in the interest of the Tri-State? is the
question. In New York State circles
the opinion prevails that the Tri-state
vacancies might be filled from the
Atlantic League circuit.
Local officials say il is up to the
president. George M. Graham. They
had heard nothing regarding the At
lantic League proposition. A dis
patch from Scranton says
'Bnl Coughlin's plans in disposing
OF some Of the rookie minor talent
have been given a rather severe jolt
by the unexpected explosion of the
Atlantic League. IL was to teams in
that organization that the Scranton
boss intended TO send certain young
sters but now that the circuit has
blown Coughlin will have to look to
new fields. Possibly he will be able
TO do something in the Tri-Stato, in
asmucs as this circuit is to have a
salary limit of about $500. and will
hardly deserve a higher rating than
given the Atlantic League last year"

sell, Faber contingent upon which the
White Sox fans rest their hopes.
Another thing which is undoubt-
edly going TO have an effect on the
team. That is the absence of the
four old stars. They are going to
feel strange facing the enemy with
out them-that old confidence and
cock-sureness that won them many
games isn't going to be there.
The Phillies are about in the same
boat with their fellow-townsmen.
There, too. is the absence of old stars
going to be felt Sherwood Magee,
a Mighty Son OF Swat, has gone to
Boston, and his old running mate,
Honus Lobert, will be seen in a Giant
uniform this season. Charley Doom
has gone to Cincinnati. The Phils
didn't have a whole lot TO star the
season with last year. thanks TO Jim
Gilmore's raiding cohorts, but they
have less this season.
Killifer behind the bat Is all right;
he proved that. last season. First
base will be occupied as usual by
Luderus, but that about tells the story
of Pat Moran's infield Byrne will
be seen at second, but he was not
a bowling success last season; for
short, there is Martin, who played
last year and is about in the same
class. Then for third, Moran has Milt-
on Stock, secured from the Giants in
the Lobert deal, and a youngster
from the Pacific Coast League, who
is reported to be a conner. He an
swers to the name of Dave Bancroft.
Stock didn't make a hit with McGraw
last season and for that reason was
let go. Bancroft is a recruit.
However. Moran is fortunate in
having a fairly heavy hitting outfield
in Paskert, Cravath and Becker. They
should be able TO drive in a lot OF
runs for him this season if they per-
form in anything like their usual
fashion.
Alexander is the big man in Nor
ans hurling department. He is un-
questionably one Of the best flippers
in the National League Backing him
up are Demaree, Mayer, Tincup
Oescheger, Rixey, Baumgardner, Mat
tison and Jacobs. Demaree was an
erratic performer last season with
the Giants, but II he has a good sea
son with the Phils. they should be
pretty formidable in the box. Rixey
and Mayer have proven dependable
men in the past.
No, Philadelphia fans are making
any books that a pennant is coming
here next season. Not hardly any.

TOO MANY Players:
TUMBLE IN Prices
Diamond Talent Will Be
Glut On Market by May
/; Ability Some Factor
YOUNGSTERS MUST
KEEP HUSTLING

Baseball players who have nothing
extra to show in ability this season
will be hunting jobs May /. In
brief. baseball talent will be a glut on
the market this year. At present
many managers are unable TO sell or
exchange a baseball player for a
baseball bat
II matters not whether a ball play
er has batted at 300 or outflelded
nearly perfect, his chances of get
ting a job, if he does not have one
now, is one in a thousand, unless he
shows promise for future. Here is
what Grantland Rice says in the New
York Tribune:
There will be more ball players
out of work by the first of May this
season of 1915 than baseball has ever
known The National League alone
by that date will have attached the
can to over 100 athletes who may in
part get jobs elsewhere, but who in
So doing will crowd out others. Not
overlooking any sympathy for those
forced out, especially the veterans,
where the blow will fall hardest. this
state of affairs should summon the
attention of those now in the game.
"There was a general tendency all
last season to loaf, break training
and in other ways disregard discipline
and produce an inferior standard OF
play. II those left in the game take
the proper warning from so many
turned adrift, there will be a return
to the old hustle and spirit which
lifted baseball so high. Otherwise,
there will be a further lessening OF
interest and another epidemic of job
less players"

PHILADELPHIA, March 6.-The
well known depths of despair hold
Philadelphia's hopes for a pennant
this season. Even the most opti-
mistic fan cannot see themselves
standing in line for worlds series
ducats next October. Both teams
have had the severest shake-up this
winter in their history and only a
miracle can bring either of them to
the tape ahead of fourteen other
teams.
The distintegration Of the Athlet-
les famous machine is the hardest
blow. Philadelphia fans had come TO
look upon a worlds series as an an
nual affair with Philadelphia--one
that was theirs by divine right, or
something of that sort-and the crash
that shot the famous aggregation into
history shook them to their toes.
The Justly famous 100000 in
field" now looks like thirty cents
some of the more belligerent even
assert the three should be erased.
Tn famous Barry TO Collins to Nc
Innis" that figured daily in the box
scores is gone. Quaker fans began
TO sit up and take notice when Ben
der and Plank, the two men who have
brought pennants TO Philadelphia
year after year with their sterling
performances we're gone. Then came
the Collins deal. That left their hopes
stunned a bit more. Before they had
time to recover. Frank Baker, king
bee swatter of all worlds series, an
nounced he was through. That was
the proverbial last straw.
Mack Is now back where he was
five or six years ago. True, ho still
has Barry and Mclnnis, but the pair
seems like the skeleton Of a once
solid structure. The addition of Lar
ry Lajoie Is going to help some, but
the veteran is slowing up! he had a
bad year last season with the Maps
and he is viewed with some skepti-
cism. Kopf. the little utility infeld-

Upon the return of Eddie Sterlith,
the continuous pool tourney at
Claude Browns parlors will be re-
sumed. Claude has all the cue artists
in line ready to take their turn on

the standing of the players: Burns,
three games, 294; Clark, three games,
2S5; Sterlith, three games, 250; Muir

games, 277; Coulten, two games, 200;
Lynch two games, 162; Dunn, two

Coulten, who is scheduled TO play
tonight, is the only shooter who has
a possible chance of finishing with
a perfect score of 200.
Wilmington Jimmy Murphy, who is
again in good shape, his bad hand
having fully recovered, has been
booked to meet Eddie Moy. the AL
lentown sensation, at the Palace A.
c., of Norristown, on Tuesday even
ing. The bout is scheduled for ten
rounds. Moy has fought champion
Johnny Kilbane on two occasions,
going to dreamland both trips. Moy
gave Kilbane a hard battle in the
first fight for five rounds. Should
Murphy win from Moy, it will mean
another step up the pugilistic ladder,
and a big boost in his scrap book If
he earns a draw Should Murphy
be bested by the Allentown bear cat,
he will not be disgraced. Being beat
en- by a man who has twice fought
the worlds champion of the feather
weight class is more of a boost than
any harm TO the local lad. Some OF
the boxing fans no doubt will claim
that Moy is no topnotcher and only
carries a bluff. etc. Well the dope
