PENN STATE TEAM
GOING TO PIECES
Calamity Howl From Coach
Harlow; Hess Out; May Have
|. Typhoid Fever

State College. Pa, Oct. Is. = Dick
Harlow, Penn States head coach isn't
setting up a calamity howl, but he is
pretty much discouraged by the regu-
larfty with which his best men are
being forced to the sidelines by injur-
les and sickness. To-day the worst
came when Hess, the best defensive
back in the squad developed something
resembling typhoid fever.
Tough Shedding Ahead
The doctors are not sure Just what
is wrong with the big line breaker, but
they have ordered him away from
hard work until a complete diagnosis
had been made. Blood tests are be-
ing made to learn the real nature of
Hess ailment. Harlow saws 1t looks
IKE tough shedding with Hess out of
the game for fortnight, or longer,
possibly.
Clark in Good Shape

Roout his shoulders to-day and fol-
lowed his team in its scrimmage with
the freshmen. Harlow thinks Clark is
At the top of his game right now and
ne doesn't want to overtrain the husky
tullback. The regulars, getting ready
Tor West Virginia tomorrow, scored
three times against the youngsters in
, twenty-minute scrimmage.

WELLYS IS CORNER

The hunting season starts Monday.
This means that there will be no trap
shooting matches tomorrow. Local
shooters are planning to start early
Monday morning and will leave to-
morrow for their favorite haunts.
Some Will go in automobiles and camp
out over Sunday.
To date the number of licenses and
the reports of sales of ammunition in
dfcate increased interest in hunting
sport this season. Harrisburgers laugh
at the reports from Sunbury and Sha-
mokin that because of high cost of
ammunition hunters will be scarce.
Ammunition in this city is selling lust
the same as last season. 1t is said that
higher prices are asked elsewhere.
Local dealers claim that some ammu-
milton is scarce, but they ordered early,
and while some orders are back they
have enough on hand to keep the
hunters busy.
A dispatch from Detroit says Hughey
Jennings and Mrs. Jennings had a
close call yesterday The Jennings au-
tomobile hit a street car. None of the
occupants was injured, but the car
was badly battered. Hughey said yes
terday's close call was nothing to what
he had this season in nearly winning
the pennant.'

Boston for the fourth time won the
worlds championship. 1t is the con-
secutive victory for the Red Sox. Bill
Carrigan had a team that played base
ball every minute. Breaks by other
teams that put Brooklyn in the lead
for the national championship caused
the Dodgers downfall No one will
deny that the best team won out in the
worlds series.
Fields, the only freshman on the
Central High eleven, is developing into
q Sreat fullback. While in grammar
school he was good football man and
also fine in track events.
Up to 10 o'clock this morning n total
of $3.50 licenses were issued to hunt
ers for this season. This Is slightly
over that of last year, showing that
Dauphin county hunters are not grow
ing any less.
Two State League players of former
years--George Pierce, pitcher, and
Jason Kirke, second baseman-did ex-
cellent work in the American Asso-
citation this year, according to official
averages just issues. The figures show
that Kirke hit .306 for Louisville and
that Pierce pitched IA victories and Z
losses for Toledo.

Glenn Warner Has Eleven
That Looks Like Champions

Pittsburgh, Oct. 10. - The first
game of real importance on the Uni
versity of Pittsburgh football schedule
is that with the Middies tomorrow at
Annapolis. and Coach Warner has
drilled his men vigorously this week in
preparation for the strong attack which
Uncle Sans boys are expected to un-
leash. 1t has often been stated that
the famous Cornell man teaches his
teams defense by developing their at
tacks and this is measurably true, but
Warner is not overlooking the perfec-
ton of tackling, blocking and other
essentials of the defense.
The attack of the Pitt men looked
good in the Westminster game partly
because there has really been attained
for this stage of the season a high de-
gree of perfection in the interference,
and partly because the visitors were ut
terly outclassed. Pitt used only three
or four plays altogether in this game,
and gained practically at will. The
most encouraging feature of the day
was the apparent power of the second
string; Warner used his first eleven
throughout their first half then with
drew them enmasse in favor of the
substitutes of whom eighteen were
used in the second half and the latter
scored more points than the regulars.

DUFFY LEWIS Is HERO

Duffy Lewis, the hero of the 1915
world series, is again the batting star
of the present year conflict which
ended yesterday at Boston. Lewis has
the best batting average of the regular
players. The top perch usually goes to
Del Gamer, of the Red Sox. with his
one single as pinch hitter, a perfect
average of 1000. Manager Carrigan,
himself. showed he could still hit in the
one game he played. and comes sec
end. Stengel, of Brooklyn leads Lewis
by q. few points, but Stengel played in
only three full games, so he can hardly
grab the honors from the Red Sox red
headed outfielder. For that matter,
Stengels claim to any honors would be
disputed by the Boston recruit,
Shorten, who in two games hit to the
tune of .571. a remarkable record for
a youngster in a worlds series after
only a month or so in the big leagues.

BASKETBALL STARS RELEASED

Reading, Pa, Oct. 13.-Mio Boggio,
Dave Kerr. of Philadelphia, and
George Norman, of the 1915-1916
Reading quintet in the Eastern Bas-
ketball League, have been released.
Boegio's release was a big surprise.
He is tired of the game and is said to
be thinking of retiring for good. He
came here from McKeesport two years
ago. Kerr is promising player, but
needs development before he reaches
Eastern League callber. Norman is
fast. but is an individual player, falling
to fit into the local combination.
Johnny Beckman, last year with the
De Neri. has moved to Reading and
will play forward with O'Donnell on
tho local five. All the remaining local
players have signed up except George
Raggerty. but no worry is felt about

card being won in straight heats.
The former record to wagon of
2:O5A was made by Peter Mac IN

1:03A the three-quarters in 1881,

tween the trotter and the accompany
ing runner, driven by Ben White. the
final quarter was trotted in 29h Sec
onds, the stallion appearing strong at
the end of the mile.
Locust Bug took the 2:20 tror;
Little Frank D, the 2:10 pace. and

A. A. VERT WINS
SILVER TROPHY
Defeats c. H. Sauers in Harry
Cup Tournament; Play
Tombstone Match

The final match in the Fred B.
Harry Loving Cup tournament was
played yesterday at Reservoir Park
between A. A. Vert and c. H. Sauers,
Vert winning the match on the 35th
green, 8 up and 1 to play, after one
of the best matches of the season.
Some remarkable golf by Vert in the
first round gave him a lead of four
holes which Sauers could not over
come in spite of his determination.
At times he reduced Wert's lead to
two, only to be beaten at the next
hole by an extra fine play on the part
of Vert. Both players thoroughly
deserved their positions in the final
as Vert defeated H. w. Perry and
Sauers defeated Tom Dev:ne IN the
course of the tournament.

QUIET CAMPAIGN
OF BENEFIT TO THE AMEND
MENTS AND REFERRED
LAWS.

Pierre, Oct. 5.-One of the old
time politicians of the state declared
today that there has never been such
a lack of campaign since Dakota ter
ritory was organized.
There are none of the old time per-
sonal charges against candidates
which made former campaigns warm,
he walled, and so far he has been un-
able to find any enthusiasm. either
republican or democratic.
That the republican state ticket.
headed by Peter Norbeck. will go
through by a heavy majority Is not
only claimed by republicans general
ly, but conceded by most democrats,
and neither of the candidates for
governor has seen any apparent need
of attempting to prove his opponent
to be unfit.
This feature of the campaign has
brought out another one. For the
first time since the campaign OF state
organization, the press of the state
and the party speakers feel free TO
say something about proposed consti-
Itutional amendments or initiated and
referred laws, discussing them as to
their actual working features, and
attempting, in part at least, to give
an intelligent view as to what is
expected to be effected by their pro-
visions If carried by a vote of the peo-
pie. This year many of the issues
are being openly advocated by diff
ferent candidates, and reason given
why they take such a position. and
present quiet" campaign may do
more toward putting issues to the
front than has any other.

EXPRESS RATES
COUNSEL FOR BOTH SIDES ENDS
ARGUMENTS.

Pierre, Oct. 5.-At the close of the
arguments in the express rate hear
ing before the supreme court today
Allan r. Fellows. representing the
Sioux Falls jobbers. expressed his be
lief that the state would win the
case, as he felt that the contentious
were on the side of the state. Chair
man Murphy, of the state railway
commission, expressed a belief that
the contentious of the state were
such that he was we'll satisfied with
the outlook.
A further contention of the attor-
neys for the state this afternoon was
that section Is of the interstate com
merce act prohibits the ordering OF
discriminatory rates by the commits
sion, and it was admitted by the at
torney of the companies that the pro-
posed rate was discriminatory
against Aberdeen. WATERFOWL. Mitch
ell. Sioux Falls and other towns in
the state.
The contention of the state in its
opening statement was that in the
Shreveport case, which is being large
ly relied upon by the attorneys for
the companies, ii was the interstate,
not the local rates. which were de-
clared to be discriminatory and that
the present case Is entirely the OPP
posite. as 1t is the local rates which
are claimed to be discriminatory and
not the interstate rates.
Attorneys for the state cited sec
ton Is of the interstate commerce
act, which forbids the commerce com
mission to order rates that are dis
criminatory. Arguments closed to-
day, and the court took the matter
under a~dvisement.

UNEARTHED Blind Pig
DOLAND HOTEL KEEPER IN
SPECIFIED AND FINED $50.

Vermillion, Oct. 5.-For failing to
operate his hotel in conformity with
the state hotel inspection law, c. M.
Bryant, of Doland, was yesterday
fined $55, including costs. The COM
plant was made by Inspector Prest-
wick of the state food and drug de-
partment, who made an inspection of
the hotel last week and found it to
be in very bad shape, and, incident
ally, the inspector uncovered a blind
pig and a quantity of booze. An in
spection of this hotel shortly after
Bryant took charge some time ago
showed il to be in fair condition, but
evidently conditions became worse
rapidly for the place last week was
found in a very filthy condition and
occupied by a group of drunken
men. After entering the place and
learning the state of affairs. the in
spector enlisted the mayor, city mar
shall and members of the city council
to assist in a thorough inspection.
This revealed a suitcase containing
fifteen pints of whisky. which were
seized by the marshal, who also ar
rested five of the men found in the
hotel. The proprietor was out OF
town at the time of this inspection.
A warrant for his arrest was later
issued and he was taken in charge
by the sheriff of Sphinx county. He
employed an attorney and plead not
guilty. Several witnesses were in
troduced for the state and the justice
found the defendant guilty, assessing
the fine noted above.
