EDUCATIONAL RALLY
 AT PLEASANT VALLEY

Wooster. Aug. 9.-At the special called meeting of the patrons on last Thursday final plans were made for the big picnic to he had at Pleasant Valley on August 2G. Everybody ia costing and helping to advertise it It will no doubt be the biggest pie nic in the county.
 The general management of the picnic is in the mands of the commit tee, composed of the school board, c, c. Martin, J. L. Pearson, w. A. Evans. T. R. Ethfidge, H. ". Ravens, Will Brannon, and seven other men, W. E. lIayens, W. E. Hiett, Jr., J. NJ. Brumnett, J. Browning, Lester Garter, Joe Burchfeld and Willie Ethridgc. Anyone desiring to know the details of the picnic see any of these men. Everybody must feel that it i5 our picnic, and help to make it 3 grand success.
 Mr Milan promises to have Pleas ant Valleys string band in fine prac- tice for the day. Good music and speaking by some of our best edu- cators vii help to entertain the large crowd expected to attend. Besides this, some other attractions are being planned, for we do not expect to have picnic without entertainment and plenty god things to eat for the crowd.
 We are sorry We are not able to have a program for the day published but as yet all the speakers have not been heard from; and there is time enough yet for that, anyway. The big ball game will be worth attend ing. No one wants to miss, perhaps the last game of the season.
 Prof. k. +. Womack, head of the history department of the Arkansas State Normal, visited all the rural schools of the county last March and is specially interested in them and We feel that we have made a wise se- lection in having him to talk on 'Ru- ral Community Interest" The other speakers and thelr subjects will be published later. Watch for a pro- gram in this paper and make youl plans now to attend the picnIc.

WILLIAMSPORT TO
RESUME BASEBALL
Backers Willing to Take Fran
chise in New York State
League

New York State League baseball is
again up to ]. II. Farrell, president
of the league. The latest proposition
Is to have Williamsport join with
Harrisburg in making a ten-club cir
cult. Billtown fans are hungry for
baseball, and 1t is said there is plenty
of money to take care of the profess
sional game.
Harrisburg promoters are of the
opinion that Williamsport would be
much better town than Reading, as
1t would break the jump from this
city to Elmira, the longest trip on the
circuit. Local and Williamsport back
ers have sent word to President Far
rell that they are ready to consider
any proposition he may make. He is
expected to send his answer within the
next two days.
A strong bid is being made by the
promoters of the Pennsylvania State
League for a franchise in Harrisburg.
Representatives were expected in the
city to-day to look over the situation
and ascertain what arrangements may
be made for a playing field. 1t is un-
derstood that the State League Off
cials are ready to put a team here,
even IL there is a New York State
League club, providing suitable
grounds are secured.

Harrisburg Independents dropped a

READING WINDS UP SEASON.;
TWO GAMES FOR CENTRAL HIGH
Local ToSserS Haze Chance to Tie Up League Race Plan
Post-Series to Decide Championship

Defeated Friday by Central and Sat
urday by Steelton, the Reading High
basketball team ended it's Central
Pennsylvania League games with a
record of nine won and three lost.
Central plays Tech Friday and Steel
be played at the Auditorium and un-
tie up Reading for the lead.
A series of three games will likely
be played the first week in April with
game in Harrisburg, a game in Read
ing and the deciding game, if neces-
sary. on the Franklin and Marshall
floor at Lancaster or the Auditorium
in York. With Captain Rote in the
first two games. local rooters claim
third game will be unnecessary.
In its twelve games Reading has
held its claim as the best defensive five
in the league. Tine team scored $50
points TO its opponents 317. These
figures would give an average score
per game of 33 to 27.25. Central in
ten contests has amassed 365 points
TO its rivals sol. This is better work
on the offense than Reading has done.
In fact, Central leads the league in
scoring with an average of 36.5 points
per game.
Reading is Lucky
Luck has figured largely in the great
record made by Reading. When that
team played Tech in this city they
nosed out 81 to 80 victory over the
Maroon after trailing along for 35
minutes of the game. Again at York

the Berks county crew caught the
White Roses at a time when the latter
were without the services of two star
players, while a third player was in
jured in a class scrap and had the use
of but one eye.
Steelton High climbed a peg higher
by trimming Tech in the local GYM
nasium. The Blue and White boys,
led by Captain Starasinic, have now
won four straight and will push York
hard for third place. The Tech crowd
seems doomed TO the cellar position.
Not only in league games, but in other
contests as WE'LL have the Tech boys
failed TO produce. After winning seven
out of the first ten starts the team
struck a slump and to date has
dropped ten straight. The quintet
seems defeated before it takes the
floor.
Thomas. of Central, still leads the
league in scoring. In ten games he
has totaled 200 points. or an average of
20 points per game. Dayhoff, of Steel
ton. is gradually crawling up and is
close on the heels of Harris for fourth
position.
The standing of the teams is as fol-
lows.
