FANS SURE OF
BASEBALL TODAY
No League Games, but Plenty
Good Sport on Local
Fields

With an ideal day for baseball,
managers to-day hope to catch up
in their losses for the present sea-
son. Rain has cut deep into profits
of many owners and it is a question
whether the crowds will come strong
enough on warm days to make up
for the rainy days. There will be
plenty of baseball to-day, as we'll as
other sports.
Harrisburg fans found interest in
q series of local games. Contests in
the West End were exceedingly at
tractive. The West End A. c. play
ed the Motive. Power this morning
at Fourth and Seneca streets, the
attendance being large. A second
game was scheduled this afternoon.
Railroaders Have Two Games
AT Sixth ano DIVISION streets, the
Firemen and Enginemen played the
jackson A. G.. this morning, many
rooters being on hand; and are due
for another game this afternoon.
The West Fairview Sportsmen's AS
played the annual battle with York
Post Office at Island Park this af-
ternoon.
Another interesting afternoon
event was a baseball game at Aca-
denny field between the faculty and
varsity nine of the Harrisburg Acad-
emy The Hick-A-Thrifts went to
Shippensburg and East End a. c. to
Goldsboro.
Other Big Events
Many Harrisburgers went out of
the city. Some will see the Har-
risburg and Reading games at Read
ing. Others are taking in the mo-
torcycle races at Lebanon and Potts
town. Tech High school students
with n large crowd left the city this
morning for Easton where, the local
athletes will compete in the annual
meet at Lafayette College.
Shooters are having a big day.
The West Fairview Sportsmn's As
sociation have an all-day shoot at
West Fairview, and at New Cumber-
