TWO GAMES TODAY
WITH SYRACUSE
Islanders Home Saturday For
Double-Header With Utica;
Locals Move Fast

Harrisburg is scheduled for two
games at Syracuse to-day. The Sunday
game was called off in order to allow
an exhibition game between Boston
and Syracuse. On Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday, the Islanders will play
at Utica. 1t is probable that one
doubleheader will be played there.
The team returns home for double
header with Utica next Saturday.
This will be the first visit of Utica
to Harrisburg. Harrisburg must win
from the team higher UP in order to
make a showing and get out of the
cellar. Records to date show the
Cockill crew to be moving with great
regularity and from now until the
close of the season rare games may
be expected. The doubleheader newt
Saturday, it is believed, will prove a
big attraction.
BinghaTnton Team Wins
Binghamton won the final game on
Saturday by a score of to 0. Har-
risburg could do nothing with Sitton,
whose curves were a puzzle. The most
that Harrisburg could do was to hit
the balls in the air. Burns pitched
a fairly good game Sensational team
work back of him kept down the
score. Not until the sixth inning did
the Bingoes connect with successful
safeties.
Two games were played in the New
York State League yesterday. Elmira
trimmed Wilkes-Barre, score to 2,
and to 0. Both games were featured
with exceptional work by the t1elders.

and triple in six times at bat.
The teams, arriving from the East

an hour late and then battled for two
hours and Al minutes under broiling
sun. Close decisions were numerous;
there was much wrangling, Manager
Jennings was put off the field for dis
putting a decision and at the close of
the game Umpire Nallin narrowly es-
capped being mobbed. With two out in
che ninth and two men on bases, Bush
sen up a high foul. Schalk crashed
against the stand, caught the ball,
doubled up and then regained his foot
ing. Umpire Nallin allowed the put
out, and thousands of persons swarm
ed on the diamond. Nallin was escort
ed to the clubhouse by Detroit and
Chicago players.
Nallin is well known in Harrisburg

another game with Trenton and it will
probably be played here this week.
