BACKS PROJECT
Forty Houses Planned at Old
Orchard; Recreation Pro-
visions a Feature

The City Planning Commission has
just set its seal of approval upon
a big development and building prof.
ect of Harold A. Nipple. the we'll
known builder and contractor. at Old
Orchard, near Paxtang.
Mr.. Nipple has laid out a plot for
forty houses there, work on some of
which has been started within the
past few days. and all of them are
to be of very attractive design. brick.
stucco, and brick and stucco finish.
But the outstanding feature of the
development and one with which the
Planning Commission is so we'll pleas
ed that 1t will draw the attention of
other builders 10 IT. is that in the
middle of one plot, bounded by Twen-
ty-siXth street, Woodlawn street.
Twenty street and Raleigh
street, with opening in Raleigh and
Woodlawn streets. there has been re-
served plot of ground for lawn ten
mis- and playground purposes. The
plot is sixty by seventy feet and will
be dedicated to uses of the property
owners. 1t will be attractively
planted and will for all time form a
breathing-space and play place for
children, and older folks too.
Chairman L. S. Herman. of the
Planning Commission, said to-day
that he believed this to be good
practice, and that other builders
would profit by adopting it, II be-
lieve," he said, that the value OF
surrounding property would be en-
hanced sufficiently for the setting
aside of similar plots on many build
ing operations"

by German Authorities

cussed at a meeting of the Reichstag

Carpenter on Way Here
to Teach Aviation Corps

London. Aug. 27.-Georges Carpen-
tier, the champion heavyweight boxer
of Europe. who is the idol of France,
both as n fighter and an aviator, is
expected to arrive in America shor w
to give the flying men the benefit of
his great experience in the air. He is
expected to mix a little boxing with
his aviation duties, and should receive
a splendid reception, especially now
that the Americans have Joined in
with the allies.
Carpenter declared when the war
broke out that he would not engage
in any boxing for his own benefit
until peace terms were signed, and
has plainly stated that any money he
receives from his boxing exhibitions
he will give to the Red Cross fund.
Carpenter has. been made practically
penniless during the war. for the for
tune he had made in the ring he in
vested in the coal mines OF Lens.
which have been occupied by the Ger
mans for so long. He also bought a
home for his parents. both of whom
he has not'seen since the war began.

Things are coming Tex Jones' way.
He goes to the top of the Western
League hitters, and about the same
time strikes oil on land he has near
Wichita. If that were not enough,
the Wichita club was good enough
to yield to his request and relieve
him of the management of it's tail
end team.
Jim Parnham, the Pennsylvania
youth, strapping big right-handed
pitcher, sent to Jack Dunn's Balti-
more Club for development by Con-
ME Mack, scored a brilliant hit at
Rochester Saturday when he pitched
both games of double-header
against Rochester and won them
both. The first game went fifteen
innings, Parnham allowing but six
scattered hits. The second game
went the full nine innings and
Parnham was nicked for but seven
hits. Each Baltimore victory was
by score of 80. Parnham has
been pitching dandy ball for the
Orioles and stands q very good
chance of returning to the big
league under the tutelage of Connie
Mack.

New records were hung up in the
final days of the 1917 Dauphin-
Perry League season on Saturday.
Newport won from Millersburg at
Millersburg by to score; Dun
cannon conquered Halifax on their
home grounds by to score, and
Dauphin forfeited to Marysville by
a 90 score at Marysville.
Newport's victory gives the team a
record of seventeen scalps in twenty
tries, q mark that the other teams
can shoot at for years to come. The
best previous record was made last
season when Marysville took fifteen
out of twenty. The team had had q
record of fifteen and three, but play
ed youngsters in the nineteenth game
and did not. put a team in the field
for the twentieth. Millersburg's de-
feat likewise sets a new record for
defeats with seventeen defeates out
of twenty starts. Malifax lost six
teen games in 1915, the first year of
the leagues existence.
Biever's New Record
Harry Biever established a new
record on Saturday when he pitched
for Halifax against Duncannon, even
though he did lose. He has now

anon was in fine form and held the
Maryland boys down to six hits, only
one of which, a triple, looked dan
gerous. He struck out five men and
passed one.
Pie Way. for Sparrow's Point, was
in good form, but the Bethlehem
lads placed their hits so that runs
resulted.

MURRAY WINS
TENNIS TITLE
Takes Final Match From Bos-
ton Star; Miss Browne
Champion

Forest Hills, N. Y. Aug. 81
Playing the aggressive and smash
ing game of tennis which he learned
in California, r. Lindley Murray,
now of Niagara Falls, N. Y, de-
feated Nathanial w. Niles, Of Bos-
ton, three sets to one in the final
round of the National Patriotic
Singles Tournament played at the
West Side Club here Saturday. Muir
rays victory over Niles was not
achieved without a bitter court
battle, the Bostonian going down
to defeat ST., Sc, 6-3, 6-3.
Miss Mary *. Browne, of Cali
fornia, defeated Miss Molla Blur
stedt, of Norway, the national cham
pNon, in the final round of the
women's single, As, 1913, 6-2.
Niles made his best showing in
the first two sets, the first of which
he won after deuce had been
called, and the second, which he
lost, after even a longer and more
gruelling struggle. From that point
on Murray began to forge rapidly to
the front and scored game after
game in rapid fire order. In many
respects Niles showed more fin
ished example of tennis play and
stroking, but he never rose to the
height of power or the degree of
endurance shown by his conquerer.
Miss Browne Stars
When the Miss Browne and Miss
Bjurstedt match was stopped by
the shower on Friday the girl from
Norway had won the first set at
CA and Miss Browne led at 20 love
on games in the second set. Miss
Bjurstedt led off with the service
upon turf that was hard and fast
and to the liking of the California
girl. She sent her line cutters
winging through her rivals court
so swiftly as to score the first of the
games at love.
This gave Miss Browne the lead
on games in the set at 3-love. She
had to taste the terrific forehanders
of the national champion in the next
few games. A brisk breeze began to
sweep the court and this seemed to
unsteady the Californian so that she
placed her drives so poorly as to
make it possible for Miss Bjurstedt
to score five consecutive games.

handicap tournament at Reservoir
for the past week are as follows:
First place, H. w. Perry, gross, 70;
no handicap; net, rs; second place,
]. H. Thomas. gross. 101; handicap,
20; net. 76; third, K. E. Richards,
gross, Sc; handicap, 8; net. rs.
The matches in the third round for
the Fred B. Harry cup at Reservoir
have been held up during the past
week on account of the rain and long
grass, only three matches having been
played, as follows: c. II. Sauers beat
d. r. Myers; II. w. Perry beat T. V.
Devine; ]. D. Smith beat T. B. Will
dermuth.
The following visitors played over
Reservoir course during the past
week: B. Leisle Fohl, Lancaster; r. NJ.
Robertson, Pittsburgh. Pa; James A.
Covey. Coudersport, Pa; ]. G. Will
hanson, Blue Ridge Country Club,
Palmerton; T. w. Downes, Steelton
Carl Strait, Williamsport.
The match at Reservoir between
Skip Perry and Tommy Devine was a
thriller, as is always the case when
these two players get together, and
it was followed by an enthusiastic
| gallery. Perry won, up and to
play, although he had to play DOGGY"
golf to do it. Perry's medal score
! was 37-SS or rs and Devine's was
40-41, or 81.
There is a tree at Reservoir Park
that gets the players goats more
than any other one in the park. This
tree is located at the edge of No. 8
green the roots of which are so
shaped that they form a cup, and woe
to the player who is unfortunate
enough to, get caught in this trap.
as usually four or five strokes are lost
in getting out.
Foursomes have become all the
rage at Reservoir. and almost every
day you will find several matches of
this kind. Prominent among these
"foursomes" are Sauers and Richards
against Kelly and Zimmerman, and
many are the "alibis" the beaten ones
| have to offer.
| There has been a great deal of en-
! tertainment furnished at Reservoir
during the past year in the way of
matches. etc, which has no doubt been
the leading factor in keeping up in
tcrest among the many players. After
| the Harry cup tournament is finished,
there will be Tombstone tournament
and a return match with the Colonial
I Club players. There will also be a
| few benefit tournaments.
The points scored in the Season
handicap, up to and including Au-
| gust 25, are as follows: Richards,
