Ohio State Is Winner
in Western Conference

Columbus, Nov. 19.-For the sec
ond successive year the Ohio State
football team has won the Western
Conference football championship. In
it's deciding game here Saturday
Ohio State. led by the indomitable
Chick Hartley, defeated Illinois 13
to O. in one of the hardest fought
football games in conference his
tory.
Chick Harley was the outstand-
ing star of a collection of brilliant
players. He carried the ball most of
the time, and twice during the con-
test he sent the ball between the up
rights for field goals. He scored his
first field goal in the opening period
and after only few minutes of play.
From that score until the final period
the two teams battled away savage
ly, using every known modern means
to advance the ball, but without sue
cess.
In the final period Ohio State be-
gan another attack which was even
more furious than that which had
gone before. After three minutes of
aerial work, a forward pass was car
ried over the goal line by II. G..
Courtney, and Harley kicked the re-
sultant goal which brought the score
10 to 0. With only short time left
to play Ohio State lost the ball on its
own 30-yard line and Harley brought
the total to 13 with his second ac-
curate field goal.

Reject Speed Marvel
After Duty in France

San Francisco, Nov. 19.-Frank Slo-
man, marvel of speed, and right
now perhaps the best quartermiler
in the world, has been rejected by
the American army doctors in France,
and he will return to his home here.
Sloman was with an ambulance corps
which was taken over by the United
States government.
Sloman broke his left wrist some
time ago and the doctors discovered
that it Is still weak. 1t was because
of this that he was rejected There
is also a record on file to show that
Sloman was turned down by the Navy
on the Pacific Coast.
Sloman won the national junior
quartermile championship in the sem
sational time of forty-seven seconds
fat two years ago, but the record
time was not allowed because of a
high wind. Sloman was second to
Ted Meredith in senior champion
ship "440" which the Penn fiier won
elso in forty-seven seconds.

New York State League
May Not Start Next Year

Scranton, Pa, Nov. 19.-Due to
the failure of the National Baseball
Association to agree on the rear
rangement of territory for 1918. so
as to permit the formation of third
major league. all hope of the New
York State League opening its parks
next season has been shattered. ac-
cording to statement made by
Robert Allen, president of the Scran-
ton team.
Had the rearrangement of terri
tory plan gone through, the league
intended to take in Rochester and
drop Reading, this giving the teams
a compact circuit and five cities in
which Sunday baseball could be play
ed, providing the new law goes into
effect in New York State. Now with
no chance of landing Rochester the
leagues hopes have been blasted, as
Reading was dead issue this year
and is neEia9n hope for another

States football eleven here Saturday,

Gettysburg Boys at Home

manned at home, were filled with joy
when they learned the score of the
game with Bucknell at Harrisburg.
They cheered and yelled and the old
college bell was rung to spread the
tidings to the people that they were
not beaten. Gettysburgians recogniz-
ed the worth of Bucknell's team this
year, and many of them considered
it the same as victory to have tied
them. Although no definite arrange
ments have as yet been made because
of the absence of so many of the stu
dents it is possible a demonstration
will be held Monday evening to do
honor to the team and the coaches.

BASEBALL TAX
MEANS MILLIONS
In Effect Now, but Money
Will Not Come in
Until Next Year

Under the terms of the new reve-
nue. law. which went into effect yes
ter, professional baseball next year
will contribute upward of $1,000. 900
to the United States treasury, pro-
vided, of course, the attendance in
1918 nearly approximates that of the
season recently ended. About half
of the sum will be raised by the 10
per cent. tax on admission fees and
the additional 100000 should ac-
crue from income tax on players and
owners.
1t is estimated that some 6,0O0,-
600 spectators paid their way into
the American and National League
ball parks in the course of the cham
pionship races this year, and, averag-
ing the paid admissions at SO cents
each, the turnstiles recorded about

GETTYSBURG TIES
BUCKNELL TEAM
Big Game at Island Park Ends
With Score Even; Work
of Meyer Features

Gettysburg handed Bucknell one
big jolt on Saturday when they held
the crack Lewisburg aggregation to
a tie score, to 6. This annual bat
tie, played in this city, was an inter-
esting exhibition. The game was we'll
played, notwithstanding that only
one senior played on each team. The
eleVens were made up mostly of
Freshmen and Sophs.
Both teams were weakened be-
cause of the call to arms Harry Rote
and others having enlisted in the
service of Uncle Sam. Lewisburg was
further weakened early in the con-
test when Waddell went out with
broken right wrist. Later Hamil, a
Gettysburg star, was put out with a
large cash in his head over the left
eye. There were many penalties for
offsidc and holding. Tho total num-
ber of yards lost through violations
was 14S.
