HUSBANDS

A husband is an ordinary man
who once thought he knew more
than Cupid. tried it-and lost.
A husband, then, is a man
with a wife. He may have more
than one wife, but if he has,
that's his own business-and he
must be very careful TO keep it
so.
Husbands are of various sizes,
shapes and colors. AS yet, no
special brand seems to have be.
come any more popular than the
rest. Husbands are judged and
picked over more by their bank
accounts than by any personal
attributes they may have been
able to attain. A man can patch
up any kind of an imperfection
if he has greenbacks enough to
cover it.
Most husbands use so much
politeness and so many smiles
during business hours that they
never have any to take home
with them at night. Some wo.
men have to firt with another
man once in a while just to re.
mind her husband she is still on
earth.
Lots of mean things can be
said about husbands but with
out them the census takers Jobs
wouldn't last very long.

Eddie" Plank Loses Out;
Belongs to St. Louis Club

Cincinnati, Feb. S.-The National
Baseball Commission yesterday denied
the application of Pitcher Eddie"
Plank to be declared a free agent.
Plank based his request on a para
graph in the Players Fraternity agree
ment. which relates to an uncondi-
tional release after player has serv-
ed 10 years on one team and because
the Federal League no longer has a
claim to his services.
The commission ruled that the first
contention did not hold because Plank
left the Philadelphia Americans be-
fore waivers had been obtained upon
him and before he had been released
by that club, which was contrary to
the Players Fraternity agreement.
In answer to the second contention
the commission says:
His transfer to the st. Louis Amer
lean League Club is a matter of record
and his salary for 1916 is a matter for
negotiation between him and that
club"

Judge Dismisses Suit
on Federal League Request

Chicago, Feb. S.-The suit of the
Federal League against organized
baseball, based on alleged violation
of the Federal antitrust laws, was
dismissed yesterday in the United
States Circuit Court here by Judge
Kenesaw NJ. Lands on motion of
counsel for the Federal League.
For more than a year the suit, with
the possible outcome, had hung over
the baseball world. Its withdrawal
was one of the stipulations in the re-
cent peace agreement between the
Federal League, newcomers in base
ball, and the older leagues.
No objection to the order of the
dismissal was advanced by counsel
for the Baltimore Federal League
club. The dismissal order was with
out prejudice to further appeal to the
court by any of the interested parties.
In announcing his decision to allow
the motion for withdrawal, Judge
Lands said that the closest eXami-
nation of the evidence and arguments
had failed to reflect on the honor of
the game or upon any individual
player.

STAR PLAYERS in
SCHOOL LEAGUE
Local ToSSerS Factors in Cen
trail Pennsylvania Series;
Light of Lebanon Leads

More changes have taken place dur
ing the last week in the Central Penn
sylvania basketball league than at
any other similar length of time dur
ing the season. York's defeat at the
hands of Central last Thursday and
Readings victory over Tech has
placed York and Reading on even
terms for the lead of the league
Central is one game in the rear of
these two teams.
Light, the high individual scorer
of the league since its inception, has
been displaced by Greenawalt, center
of the York team. Reading High
after playing four of its first five
games on it's own floor has taken the
lead in both the offensive and de-
fensive
Thomas the clever Central for
ward, was the highest individual
scorer in the league during the week,
netting a total OF 20 points for his
side in the game against the Workers
AS a result he has moved into third
place.
Reading has scored 100 points in
five games. while Central has tailed
100 for the same number of contests.
Lebanon High has amassed 22O tallies
for the season but has engaged in
eight contests to date.
Ten Leading Players
The ten players with the highest
averages of points per game are as
follows:
Snyder, Reading, 21.5O, in four
games; Greenawalt, York, 2O.S0, in
five games; Harris. Tech, 1900 in
three games; Thomas, Central, 1900
in five games; Light, Lebanon. 1910,
in eight games; Wendler Reading
11.40 in five games: Dayhoff. Steelton,
1915 in four games; Killinger, Tech,
$50 in five games; Jones Lancaster,
S.71 in nine games; Wallower, Cen
trail, 720 in five games.
The standing of the teams is as fol-
lows.

in the annual championship shoot.
Until another trophy is provided, the
old cup known as the Harrisburg
Trophy" will be contested for. The
committee in charge of this big event
is scoring the country for fast flyers
and will need 5000 birds.
Tad" Jones, Yale's new football
coach was All-America timber both in
Reid of Harvard were two of the best
college catchers in many years. Jones
was one of the fastest running catch
ers in either amateur or professional
ranks.
Those who predicted that not more
than ten players from the Federal
circuit would be found in major ranks,
after peace terms were settled, have
another think. To date fifty players
have signed contracts and will be with
the teams in the South. 1t is more
than likely that some of these players
will not be in the regular lineup, but
it is a safe bet, that If they show any
kind of form, they will have a busy
summer in some league, and draw
down living salaries.
Harrisburg baseball fans have two
chances for league baseball this sum
mer. The one is with the New York
State League. and the other with the
new league that will be organized in
New York next week. If the Farrell
circuit needs a good town. it is up to
the magnates to get busy at once. In
the opinion of those willing to put up
cash for a ball team, there will be no
begging for a franchise in any organi-
zation.

Recently six members of the first
and second teams of the Philadelphia
Central High basketball team, were
declared ineligible because of failures
in examinations. With the Central
Pennsylvania Scholastic League teams
running close, any team unfortunate
enough to temporarily lose a star play
er, because of study conditions, would
soon be counted out.
Plans are under way for a basketball
contest between Hassett tossers and
Tech varsity five. 1t will probably
be part of the program on February
% at Chestnut Street Auditorium,
which will include wrestling matches.
Hassett tossers are always a strong
attraction, and are in demand for
games.
Those who have seen the Williams
port basketball team play, cannot un-
derstand why the Billtowners are not
members of the Scholastic League,
Williamsport has scored more field
goals against York than any team in
the League, losing games on fouls.
Results in the Interoffice Bowling
League, which closed it's first cham
pionship season on Saturday, brought
to the front some new stars. Those
Mt. Pleasant printers scored many
cleanup victories. and held high rec
ords throughout the season. The riV-
airy was strong. There will be more
doing when the local printers meet in
basketball and baseball contests.
On Tuesday, February %, live bird
shooters from all over Pennsylvania
will come to Harrisburg to participate

Quintet

Central High without the services
of Rote, last night won from the Has
sett Club tossers, score So to 80. The
High School quintet had to go some
to land a victory. 1t was the excellent
foul goal shooting of Wallower that
brought the answer.
The game was not won until the
final whistle was blown. Central was
strong in defensive work, while Has
sett weakened at intervals. Devine
and Cough were heavy scorers for
Hassett. Krout put up a strong game
at forward, and Gerdes played well
at guard. Wallower and Houtz
brought the points for Central. The

other matters governing eligibility was
delegated by the Yale Corporation.
In the meantime, the undergradu-

and only the junior promenade festivi-
ties prevent mass meetings and strong
er demonstrations. Not in college
generations has there been so much
feeling over a matter involving under
graduates.

the lacing that the New Yorker meted

doubt as to whom was the victor.
With the exception of the first
round, there was no holding of Dun
dee. He cavorted around Murphy
with the quickness of lightning, and
every time he would leap forward his
left shot out with terrific force to
Murphy's jaw or body. He displayed
a hearty respect for Murphy's hitting
powers, and he never allowed the West
Philadelphian an opportunity to get
set.
