About 40 members of the Harris
burg Rotary Club attended the second
Fall MONDAY luncheon at the Senate

ana other pretty things from the Bo-
gar store. A display of similar ar
ticles was ranged around the room.
Mr.. Borgar talked at length of the
development of the sporting goods
business in Harrisburg, and he knows
considerable about it for he began
years ago as a bicycle cleaner at 81 rs
a week at a period when two base
balls a week were about the limit of
sales. Now he has a store in Harris
burg, another in York and is preparing
to open one in Lancaster.
Mr.. Bogar attributed the growth of
the business very largely to the
schools, the city play grounds and such
institutions as the Y. M. c. A., which
teach boys the value of physical train
| ing and encourage them to go in for
sports. He paid a high compliment to
the work of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Y. NJ. c. A. along this line and intro
duced q young member of that insti-
tuition who gave the Rotarians an idea
of the physical development of the
classes there.
Near the head of the table sat Ed.
Black, proprietor of Blacks art store,
who was chairman of last weeks sue
cessful luncheon, and the Rev. DIR.

CENTRAL LEADS
WITH BIG SCORE
Steelton Has Close Call; Tech
Loses to Easton; Victory
For Academy

Central High eleven was the big
winner again in Saturdays game.
Ploughing through the lines of the
Stevens Trades School team of Lam
caster, the local team ran up a score
Of 81 to 0. Stevens put up n good
game at intervals. but could not keep
up with the pace set by Central.
Steelton High nosed out victory
over the Lebanon High eleven; score.
Z to 6. Fumbles and lack Of head
work gave Lebanon the opportunity to
score. Steelton meets Central at Island
Park next Saturday. In view of the
fact that Central had q walkover VIC
tory with Stevens, while Steelton was
unable to score against the Lancaster
eleven, it looks like a victory for Cen
trail in the first interscholastic series.
Tech met a new foe in Easton High,
losing out; score, 8 to 0. New forma-
tions by Easton had Tech guessing.
The Harrisburg eleven was outplayed
in every period, so much so that in
the last half Coach Whitney's squad
went to pieces. Both teams were
even in weight. Britsch put up good
game for Tech. MCurdy and Cocklin
were also prominent.
Harrisburg Academy won from En-
haut by forfeit; score, l to o. The
game started and Academy ran the
ball up the line close to Enhaut's line.
The locals were forced back and En-
haut scored on n forward pass. Then
came heavy line plunging until Acad-
emy was near Enhaut's. A controversy
arose over decision. Enhaut left the
field. The game was forfeited to

GILMORE TALKS
ON RECOGNITION
Indications Point to End of
Baseball War in Near
Future

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. lin spite
of the positive assurances of many of
the heads of organized baseball, It
seems certain that steps are being
taken toward a definite settlement of
the present baseball war. Plans have
been discussed for a compromise with
the Federal League before another
season opens and the powers of the
organized throne have bent so far
from their high and lofty attitude as
to turn an attentive ear toward the
supplications of the outlaws.
James A. Gilmore, president of the
Federal League who presumably was
so spurned a few short months ago,
has shaken the confidence of certain
major operators so far that he was
able to gain an audience with the
members of the National Commission
here. A secret conference was held
early Saturday morning at the Hotel
Bellevue -Stratford. The commission
members do not deny that at this
meeting tentative plans for straighten-
ing out the existing differences were
discussed.
Nothing formal has been done" In
sists President John K. Tener of the
National League. "It is true that we
have talked informally of ways and
means to end the strife. But there
has been no compromise"
IT am opposed to recognition of tho
Federal League" says Ban Johnson,
the American League president.
The fact remains, however, that GIL
more was successful in arranging a
conference with the Triumvirate.

more than defeat. Yale had n close

10 Months Blockade of
Panama Canal Feared
Special to The Telegraph

Panama, Oct. II. careful sur
vey of the slide area in the Galliard cut
reveals the fact that there probably are
10,000,000 cubic yards of earth in mo-
tion, which must be taken out by dredg-
ing operations before permanent
channel through the cut is possible.
This is the conclusion reached by the
canal engineers, who concede that there
is now little hope of opening the water
way, even for the temporary use of
shipping, much before the first of the
year.
T. ne neo PreseIL ono en-. Iaee OIL w9t eSSaVatinon n
rate it would require not less than ten
months to remove the mass, which is
now sliding into the canal considerably
faster than the dredges can take 1t out
