ACADEMY TOSSERS
LOSE LAST GAME
F. and NJ. Five Win on Field
Goals Near Close of Sec
ond Period

The Harrisburg Academy lost the
last and big game of the season on
Saturday afternoon to the strong
Franklin and Marshall team, score
% to 81. The game was hotly con-
tested from start to finish, and was
not fully decided until the referees
whistle ended the fracas.
This winds up the present season
for the Academy, giving them total
of four victories against five defeats.
Coach Tatem and the students of the
Academy do not recognize the season
as a failure; as the team this year
was made up of entirely new men.
From this years squad, Coach Tatem
will have Bruce, Phillips, Froehlich
and Shaw as nucleus for next years
team.
Three Scoring Stars
The three Academy stars, Roth,
Phillips and Bruce did all the scoring
on Saturday for the local team. Each
of these men contributed three field
goals to the score of his club, while
Roth scored the additional three
points by means of fouls, Kreider and
Froehlich put up a good defensive
game at the guarding positions, and
helped to keep down their opponents
score materially.
For the Lancaster team, Mellinger
and Garvey were the heavy scorers.
The former scored five field goals for
his team while Garvey secured nine
points from the foul line. Madison and
Fehr contributed 6 points to the Lam
caster boys score, the former getting
two and the latter one goal from
field.
All the men who have played in
five of the games of the present sea-
son at the Academy will receive their
letters for this sport.

H| TRACK MEET
 FUR THE CLASSES

Far from settling class rivalry, yes terday's track meet at the High school seems to have bred a new conflict be- tween the juniors and seniors One faction declares that the juniors won cn points. Luke ayers that his posi- tion at third in the high jump ought to have been recorded, and should give the seniors enough points 60 tie the juniors at 26 marks per each.
 1t vas an odd sort of a track meet, in spite of the fact it was well attend ed. The astute Geary refused to di- Vulge any of the times or distances, for fear some other school might find out how bum or how good his trackists are. And then just as the stunning, thrill ing account of the meet was to be writ ten, the reporter remembered he had 2 date at the Normal dance and so he tucked out. Outside of that there is a pretty good record of what happened, and it is pinned to the bottom uf this sheet of paper:
 75-Yard Dash, Heats
 First-Marlar first; Posey. second; Hultz, third.
 Second-Pinney, first; Detwieler second; Norton, third
 Third-Walters, first Britain, sec ond; Akers, third.

 When Aiken made ready to raid the camp, he enlisted the services of the sheriff In addition to the deer carcasses, there was found a quan- tity ot dressed beef The sheriff consequently took the culprit into custody and informed the deputy game warden he could wait until the prisoner had eXpiated the cattle kill ing crime.

 SAN FRANCISCO, March 3.-The
 signing up of Joe COrbett, twenty
 years ago pitcher for and one time
 star of the Baltimore "Orioles," by
 the manager of the San Francisco
 club of the Pacific coast league,
 inspires a number of coast writers to pity.
 Poor old Joe Corbett to try to come back'-Coast league lives up to reputation as home for feeble and aged by signing oldtimers," is the way one sporting editor sums up the situation in a headline. Corbett is popular and well liked in San Francisco which is his home town and, it is believed that largely | for this reason, he has escaped here abouts some of the fun that has been poked at the transaction on the outside. The move has not been a popular one, but in difference to l the fact that Corbett is liked here l the matter has not been commented | on adversely. On the other hand l it has received scant recommenda- : l tiOn.

The Trolley Company.

The directors of the Burlington Coun-
ty Transit Company held long meet
ing yesterday afternoon and discussed
many questions in connection with the
future conduct Of the road. The high
tension power, supplied by the Burling-
ton plant of the Public Service Com
pany, is in good working order and is
doing all that was expected of it. The
subject of running through cars between
Mount Holly and Moorestown was dis
cussed and now this matter rests on the
decision of the Public Service Company.
A delegation from that corporation
will soon come to Mount Holly and will
inspect the road. On their view will de-
pend their decision of giving through
service. 1t is said that some parts of
the road do not meet the requirements
of the Public Service people, but work is
being done as fast as possible to get
everything in the required shape. Labor
is scarce and wages are high, but the
Transit Company is doing all in it's
power to meet both of these difficulties.
The conductors on the road are having
trouble. Some of the passengers be-
tween Mount Holly and Burlington
have refused to pay the increase of five
cents, basing their action on the ground
that the trolley company has not put
the road in proper shape to warrant
the raise in fare. The conductors have
been instructed to take the names of all
who do not pay and there may be ar
rests and prosecution later, as there is a
law which covers cases of riding on
trains without paying fare
The company has ordered a new car
to be placed on the Burlington end. The
order was given as rush" one, but the
makers say that it will take at least
three months to get the car in service.
Other cars will be ordered as soon as the
treasury will warrant the outlay, but
this especial car is wanted in a hurry
and the work will be pushed.
