When Corn Became the Fashion


Hitherto we have been urged to eat
corn for health's sake. Now we are
urged to eat it for patriotic reasons.
We can all learn to eat corn in some
form if we viii only make up our
minds to try. When corn really be-
comes the fashion, other countries
will take it up and we shall doubtless
find that in changing our bread for
patriotic reasons, we will have ma
terially increased the market for our
great national crop.

Here Tomorrow

Sportsmen will gather in Harris
burg tomorrow. 1t will be the an
nual meeting of the Wild Life League.
Delegates will attend from all over
the State to discuss proposed game
law legislation, and amendments to
present laws. Sessions will be held in

tomorrow night and during Friday
VIII be for discussion of fish and
game laws. and questions to be sub
mitted by the department of fisheries.
Question of Votes
The Statewide organizations of
sportsmen are generally in favor of
the plan of having one vote in the con-
ference allotted for each member of
the House of Representatives Where
Statewide organizations have branch
es in districts the votes will be al
lotted to the organization having the
largest number of individual mem
bers. In case of dispute, the votes
will probably be divided Figuring on
this basis. through the various State
committeeman the Wild Life League
should cast some 80 votes in the con-
at the instance of the Game Commits
sion that the conference is held, it is
expected that the Game Commission
itself will determine absolutely on the
question of the relative voting strength
of the various organizations.
The various league branches are
making returns of the vote taken on
the resolution aimed to confine the
hunting of all small game to the
month of November and to reduce the
bag limits all along the line, starting
with that of ruffed grouse. which is
reduced from five birds day to three,

results will be included in reports to
be presented.

Bill Carrigan Refuses to
Work Without Salary Boost

Boston, Mass, Jan. Bill Carri-
gan will not manage tie Red Sox in
1917. This was made clear by his
refusal to consider the offer of II. II.
Frazer, president of the team, who is
said to have offered him three-year
contract. carrying a salary in the
neighborhood of $4,000 year.
FraZee has urged Carrigan to re-
consider. but it is generally expected
that his refusal will be final. Never
theless, the Red Sox manager will
come to Boston and remain here till
Thursday evening in the hope that he
may get some favorable word over the
phone on that date from Lewiston.
Nothing will be done about selecting
a successor to Carrigan until after
Thursday, for the president of the
team is anxious to have Carrigan re-
turn il there is any chance to get
him. However, it is admitted that
the outlook is very black.
Carrigan is planning to open two
big trust companies in Maine and to
go into extensive real estate ventures.
Despite the big offer made by Frazee,
he says he can't see any means of re-
turning to baseball.

MINOR LEAGUES
MAY GET HELP
National League Hears Pleas
Re-elect Garry T. 'rrmann
President

Cincinnati, Ohio, Jan. 3. - After
hearing the representatives of the
class AA leagues relative to the elimi-
nation of the draft from their leagues
the national baseball commission an
nounced here last night that it would
give careful consideration to the re-
quest and then adjourned.
The commission also heard a plea
from the smaller leagues that at least
its moral influence be exerted to help
the minor leagues out of what was
pictured TO be q most deplorable con-
dition. A. r. Tearney, of Chicago,
president of the Three-I League, acted
as spokesman for the minor leagues
and urged the commission to recon-
mend that a reclasSi1ication and re-
organization of all minor leagues be
made with the idea in view of elimi-
mating excess railroad mileage of
teams, Encouragement of the maximum
salary limit and other ideas that he
claimed would go far toward putting
large majority of the minor league
clubs on q paying basis, whereas now
they are losing propositions
The commission also took this under
advisement, but promised Mr.. Tearney
that he could rest assured that the
commission would do everything in it's
power to help along the lines laid
down by him.
August Hermann was reelected
president and John F.. Bruce secretary
for the coming year, while a large
amount of routine business was trans
acted and Chairman Hermann an
nounced that for the first time in his
recollection every case had been dis
posed of except the matters presented
at to-day's meeting.
The class AA men, with President
Edward Barrows, of the International
League, and President Thomas Hickey,
of the American Association, as
spokesmen, presented six requests, in
Guiding one for elimination of draft
season.
During the discussion the spoles-
men of the class AA leagues made an
additional request to the effect that if
the commission finally decided that it
would not eliminate the draft from
the class AA leagues it would set
back the date of the drafting period
from September 10 to September %.

dustry, during the coming year. will!
continue, with renewed efforts, its work
to reduce the hazards to life and health,
in industry.
Employers can aid greatly In this,
work by promptly installing safeguards
at danger points, by giving sanction
and assistance in the organization OF
safety committees in the shops and
by establishing safety departments in
the larger plants. Employers can also
aid by promoting Americanization OF
non- English speaking workmen so
that accidents may not result from in
ability of foreign workers to under
stand orders given in English.
"Employes are urged to be most cau-
tious and careful in their work, to
guard against any careless movement
that might cause injury to themselves
or ellow-workers. Employees are also
urged to use every safety appliance
provided by the employers, especially
goggles. Employees can also aid in re-
ducng the tremendous casualty toll by
giving thought and attention to the for
nation of safety committees in every
shop to cooperate with the manage
lment in advancing safe practices"

[WELEYs CORNER

The proposition to start a profess
sional football league is not new. 1t
has been tried several times. There
were series of football games in this
vicinity some years ago. While not
exactly on professional basis it was
an independent series. Ex-college
players figured in the games and fur
nished some rare sport Steelton had

Edward Doheny, a former Giant
twirler, died in New York yesterday.
He was a fast boy in his time, but
had hard luck in getting on teams that

Pirates were champions, but did not
get into the worlds series.
Robert Quinn. former Columbus

Basketball Classic
Re-elect Phillies Officers;
Await Vernon Club Action

Philadelphia, Pa, Jan. 8. - The
slated ticket went through without the
slightest suspicion OF q hitch at the
annual meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the Philadelphia National
League Baseball Club, held yesterday
afternoon in the club offices in the
Stock Exchange Building. President
William +. Baker was unanimously re-
elected to succeed himself and all the
other officers and attaches of the club
were voted another term of office.
So the roster reads the same as last
year: President, Fred T. Chand-
Ter; ecretary-treasurer. Samuel Glenn
ent; Patrick j. Moran, manager; Will
liam j. Shettsline, business manager.
President Baker expected to find a
letter from the Vernon ball club wait
ing for him yesterday when he ar
rived from New York, but was disap-
pointed. There is deal on by which
Cravath is likely to go to the coast to
manage the team representing Vernon
in the Coast League. President
Baker said there was no further de-
velopments in any of the deals con-
templated.

shows like some of the towns in Penn
sylvania are now getting. If it is to be
a business proposition, those who are
back of the enterprise should use
business methods.
1t is now a settled fact that inter-
collegiate rules will govern all games
in the City Amateur Basketball
League. One rule will permit any one
player to have four personal fouls. He
goes out of the game when fifth foul
is committed The sixth team for
this league will be announced early
next week.
1t is said that Les Darcy had agreed
to meet AL Mccoy. If the latter con-
sents to this match he will get busy
at once. Mccoy has a south paw that
won him much fame.
Sportsmen OF New Cumberland will
meet this evening and organize gun
club. Some time ago New Cumber-
land boasted of an organization of
shooters who won many laurels. There
are many good shots in that town and
it is proposed to get them together
and have some exhibitions.
