RESTA WINS AUTO
RACE AT CHICAGO
De Palma Loses Lead When
Engine Goes Bad; One
Minor Accident

Chicago. June IL. - Dario Resta
yesterday won the second annual 800
mile automobile derby at the Speed
way here. Ralph de Palma was sec
Old, nearly a lap behind the leader.
Resta's time was 3 hours minutes
and 81 seconds, an average of 9S.7
miles an hour. Christiaens was third,
Vail fourth and O'Donnell fifth.
De Palma and Resta raced neck and
neck throughout the contest, but two
laps before the end De Palma de-
vcloped engine trouble and was forced
to go to the pits, losing his lead. Dur
ing the last 100 miles of the race, up
to the time that De Palma's engine
failed him, he and Resta raced almost
within reach of each other, first one
and then the other taking the lead.
Only one minor accident marred the
race. Just before the end of the con-
test, as Calvin was taking a curve at
high speed his car skidded, swung
about and rolled into the fence on
the inner side of the track. Both
Calvin and his mechanician were
thrown out but neither suffered
serious injury.
Twenty-one cars faced the starter.
Several other cars had qualified, but
were withdrawn. their hackers saying
that they would not countenence Sun
day racing. Ralph Mulford also with
drew, but offered his car to Ricken-
bacher, who drove it in yesterdays
race.
According to the announcement by
the management, almost 100000 per-
sons saw the race.

WELLYS X CORNER

The Empire Athletic Association
will meet tonight to complete the or

and the rules and regulations will
come up tonight for approval. The
matchmakers have been busy and ex-
pect to announce a program that will
make local fans sit up and take notice
The first entertainment is scheduled
for July A. Application for charter
will be made next week.
Pitcher Winters, of the Rosewood
A. c., has one of the best records of
any twirler in Harrisburg. He has not
been knocked out of the box this sea-
son. The report that the Stanley A. c.
had hit him hard in a game last week
was incorrect. He succeeded Hahn in
the box and held the Stanleys down
Winters has been picked as a conner
and has been offered positions in
minor leagues, but prefers to remain
at home another season.
The Atlantic League may not last
until July 4, according to reports. In
every town the owners are selling out
and quitting the game. 1t is. under
stood that the businessmen of Read
ing who have taken over the Lawson
interests are thinking seriously of get
ting busy with proposition for a New
York State League team.
Newport won over Millersburg in
the Dauphin- Perry League on Sat-
urday; score. to 4. Rote and Buff
fington were the hard hitters. Rote is
playing a great game for Millersburg
at third base. Both these boys have
been factors in all games to date.
The Motive Power team of the
Pennsylvania Railroad League of this
city is a good second in the race. On
Saturday the locals won over the Bal
timore team; score, to 0. F'ry's ex-
cellent pitching brought the victory
for the Harrisburg railroaders. The
fielding and hitting was far above that
of Baltimore.

Schedule Calls For Forty-two
Battles at Island Park
Subject to Revision

With the official approval of the
transfer of the Troy franchise to Har-
risburg will come a revision of the
New York State League schedule. The
most important changes will probably
be in the games scheduled for July 4.
According to the original dates, Troy
and Albany alternate on July 4. This
is impossible with the transfer. If
Manager Cockill can convince the AL
bany hackers that Harrisburg will
draw the largest crowd with a double
header on July 4, the games will be
scheduled here.

will be forty-two games to play in
Harrisburg. On this basis, books will

little bit late, but a certainty, is
the announcement that Harrisburg is
to have a New York State League
baseball franchise. If the good name
of Harrisburg as a baseball town is to
be maintained, according to the gem
eral belief. local fans will have to keep
busy. The first opportunity offered to
them to get on the job came to-day
in the placing on sale of coupon books.
The greater the sale, the stronger will
come the assurance that Harrisburg is
at last In a league where it belongs.
Throughout the city unusual en-
thusiasm is being shown over the
prospects for fast baseball during the
balance of the season. Manager
Cockill has given his word that he will
strengthen the Troy team and be up in
the race in the near future. Local
fans know he always keeps his word
Another assurance that the new game
is a good thing is shown in the fact
that both George Cockill and Walter
Blair have taken half interest in the
new team.
Halifax trimmed Marysville in the
Dauphin-Perry League series on Sat
urday. The visitors played a fault
less game and hit the ball at the right
time. Biever was big factor, tanning
13 men and allowing but hits. He
also hit the ball and fielded his po-
sition in fine style. Ryan, at second
base, was fielding star.
The Globe Right Posture baseball
league is in the field and will play a
series of thirty-six games. John G.. Och,
manager of the boys clothing DEPART
ment at the Globe store, is president.
There will be five clubs, including the
Blues. Reds and Grays, of the Posture
aggregation, and the Arrow A. c. and
Harrisburg Juniors. Each team has
been uniformed and games will start
this week. Most of the games will be
played in the evenings. Holiday con-
tests are scheduled for July 4 and
Labor Day and on Friday afternoons
when the stores inaugurate the half
holiday season

hearty invitation to every golfer in
Harrisburg to enter the annual compe-

tation will undoubtedly prove a brist-
ling challenge to the pill-chasers of
the two clubs and should find a ready
response. The tournament started to-
day.
AS a special attraction to visitors,
the announcement that ground has
been broken for the new locker rooms
of the Harrisburg Park Golf Club at
Reservoir Park, permitting the install
lation of hot water in the shower
room, will come as a pleasing shock
to enthusiasts of that club.
A match which excited considerable
interest among the players at Reser-
voir on Saturday was that between the
popular professional. Stewart McEwan
and M. S. Kelley, well-known as an
amateur. A large crowd followed the
match which was won by McEwan on
