thousand miles to get into the game.
This year John G. Martin, president
OF the Harrisburg Shooting Associa-
tion, hopes to give this city a further
boost. He is planning a number of
events and at intervals champions from
other States will come here. Someday
he hopes to land one of the big inter-
state events or a worlds handicap
contest.
Baseball managers will have their
troubles between now and the time for
opening the season. They must pick
a team, and with a limited number of
players. 1t will keep them guessing as
to who will be let out. This season
players will not have strings tied to
them. When they go. 1t will be as free
agents.
Joe Chabek. the Harrisburg pitcher
who was a Tri-State star and was
taken over by Brooklyn, will play at
Oakland, Cal, this year. 1t was Cha
bek's wish to get away from the East.
He is not all in by any means; in fact
there are many managers who believe
he will be a sinner this season. His
friends here hope so.

Effective March the price of the Chalmers Si4O will be

present price is made necessary by the sharp rise in
cost of raw materials. rs -.-s b., ,ar -.a -oos
Aluminium which sold for 1o cents pound only few

This kind of automobile Chalmers has built and

Therefore rise in price the only procedure pos

We regret that increase in price is necessary but
feel that other manufacturers of automobiles will be
forced to either increase the price lower grade of

For it is possible to buy superior products in the
open market at any less price than Chalmers pays.
We think it only fair those who have planned to pur

price of $1450 f. o. b. Detroit will prevail.
