"Flash" Disclosed Carl
Haterius Cover There

Kansas City. = 1t is rather a
startling experience to drop into a
picture show and suddenly find that
your brother "over there" is smiling
a genial greeting to you from the
screen. Such was the sensation en-
joyed by G. M. Haterius, local Sc
curities representative for Strand
berg, McGreevy & Company, 924 Bal
timore avenue, when he visited the
Apollo Theater. Because of his
height, 6 feet inches, and front
line position with the 137th Infantry
Band, Carl Haterius, the brother,
figured prominently in a Pathe
Weekly "flash" of the American
Band entertaining King George v at
the Buckingham Palace. This band
was organized largely through Ha-
terius' effort. He recruited mu-
sicians from Bethany College, Linds-
borg, Kan, which he attended prior
to enlisting in the Army early last
spring.
Sergeant o.. B. McGreevy, Com
pany G, 137th Regiment Infantry, a
brother to M. c. McGreevy, of
Strandsberg. MeGreevy & Company,
also appeared in the picture.

Airplane Timber
in the Spruce Zone
Burned by !. w. w.

Chicago, Ill. - Fires which burn
ed spruce invaluable for airplanes,
mysteriously disa bling of saving ma
chinery, /. w. w. strikes, violence
and threats, in the fir and spruce
zone of Puget Sound and the North
west, comprised much of days
testimony in the federal court, where
100 /. w. w. defendants are being
prosecuted by the government.
The sabotage which ruined band
saws and high-priced tools was not
directly traced, but it was shown
that on the day of the walk-out at
certain lumber concerns numerous
tools were turned in by the men,
wrecked.
Two members of the logging firm
of Schaeffer Brothers testified, and
several of their employees. Logs
from the Schaeffer camp, near Aber-
deem, when sent to be made into
lumber at mills of the Hoquiam,
Wash, Sash and Door Company, re-
suited in series of accidents, ruin
ing so foot band saws worth hun
dreds of dollars. Steel wedges and
railroad spikes had been driven into
them.
Spruce was the only timber in
which spikes were found, it being in
tended for airplanes, the testimony
showed.
A striked called by the I. w. w.
stopped work at two of three log
ging camps of the Schaeffer firm

work late in September, but the ac-
cidents kept on. Alfred Schaeffer,

fed the men struck without notice,

he never heard the reason for the
waik-out.

HIGH DIVER
MAKES RECORD
Human Fish. of Australia
Plunges 205 Feet at Sgd
ney Water Carnival

An authentic and most extraordi-
nary report has reached this country
from Australia that a Solomon Is
lander named Alick wickman broke
all records for high diving by MAX
ing plunge of 205 feet. He did this
before thousands of spectators at a
water carnival near Sydney and
there is practically no chance of
there being an error.
Wickham, swimmer and diver of
note, who is employed by the Sydney
trolley service, was persuaded to at
tempt the dive as part of a lengthy
program of aquatic events held at
the Deep Rock swimming pool. A
high platform was erected near the
top of the cliff-like side of the pool,
and at the announced hour for the
dive there were thousands of spec
tators present to witness the peril
Gus feat.
The Solomon Islander admitted
that when he reached the top of the
tower and looked oown at the pool
more than 200 feet below he was
badly ratified and desired to quit, but
the fear of being accused of cow
ardice forced him to go through with
the performance. He leaped off and
was able to retain both equilibrium
and consciousness for the first $50
feet, after which all became blank.
Wickham struck the water in a semi
prone position with such force that
he was completely knocked out for
more than ten minutes. When taken
from the water he was bleeding
from a dozen places about the body,
and his swimming suit was split on
one side from neck to knees.
Harrisburgers may get some no.
ton of this Australians stunt by re-
calling the performance of several
divers here who jumped off the Mar
ket street bridge, a distance, perhaps
of sixty feet. To dive 80 feet in seven
feet of water was the diversion fur
nished for many years by a man who
travelled with Barnum's circus. He
finally miscalculated one night at
Madison Square Garden, and under
the eyes of many thousands took his
last and fatal plunge. So far as rec
ords go there is nothing to approach
this dive of 205 feet.

GOTHAM GIRL
STAR in TENNIS
Miss Goss Upsets Rivals With
Victories Which Bring Her
Near Championship

A young New York woman, Miss
Eleanor Goss, has jolted the day
lights out of Philadelphia this last
week, upsetting all tennis predictions
that were made, prospective of the
woman's championship games at the
Cricket Club grounds. "a clever but
inexperienced player" one Philadel-
phia critic calls her after she defeat
ed her clubmate, Miss Pollak, yes
terday, thus earning the right to play
for the championship.
Before tackling Miss Goss in the
final round in the afternoon Miss
Pollak had to meet Miss Claire Cas-
sell, the conqueror of Miss Eleonora
Sears, in the semifinal round in the
morning, and, contrary to expecta-
tions, the match was not nearly as
close as had been anticipated, for
Miss Pollak won with considerable
ease, 6-3, 60.
Miss Pollak played a very fine
game, and she pursued exactly the
same tactics against her opponent
match with Miss Sears on the pre-
vious day. She kept Miss Cassell run
ming from one side of the court to
the other, and mixed up short lobs
and deep lobs with splendidly-placed
shots down the side lines, with the
result that Miss Cassell was given
very little opportunity to play her
usual game.
1t is given as some excuse for
Miss Pollak that all this exertion
tired her, but Miss Goss had also
been very busy. Their match was
intensely interesting, Miss Goss win
ming the first set rather easily. In
the second set Miss Pollak played
like a demon, and it was apparent
that she had her opponent worried
on quite a number of occasions. At
the end of the eighth game the score
stood at five games to three in favor
of Miss Pollak. and in the ninth
game the score was called 40-15 in
her favor, and she had the service.
Wanting only one point to win the
set she sent over a particularly fine
service which seemed to cut the cor
ner. Much to the amazement of the
spectators the linesman called out
and on her next service she lost the
point. Naturally she was somewhat
perturbed and her play suffered in
consequence and she lost the game.
To her credit be it said that she
stuck to her game bravely after this,
but the moral effect was there and
Miss Goss won the next three games
and the set. The only obstacle that
stands in the way of her path to
the throne now is Miss Molla Blur
stedt, the Norwegian marvel. hith-
erto unconquerable, who will meet
the dashing Gotham girl in a finish
fight this afternoon.
Miss Katherine Porter, of the Phil
adelphia Cricket Club, had the honor
of anneXing the first girls junior
championship of the United States.
She beat Miss Dorothy Walker, a
member of the same club, in thrill
ing two-set match, 6-3, Sc.

PANIC IN THE

and Herman Protest
to Crowder; Say He Will

Patrons of baseball who are agi-

ployes. Strictly speaking, a ball
player shoud come under the class of
! Snowman or public performer and
hus justify the Provost MarshaPs
justification. The fact, however,
hat baseball occupies a peculiar
liace in the hearts of the nation and
because of it's mammoth popularity
n the armies abroad, would seem to
suggest that arrangements might be
made to have it continue. Regard
ng the managers viewpoint, Ban
Johnson says that he cannot under
;tand General Crowder's statement
hat baseball was nonproductive, as
the two major leagues, he said, will
leliver to the Government a war tax
reaching nearly 100000.
THE ball players, umpires, club
stockholders and officials have
bought more than $4,000. 600 worth of
Liberty Bonds and have subscribed
thousands upon thousands of dollars
to the Red Cross and other war char
ities.' President Johnson said.
Where is there another class of men
earning as much for the Govern
ment?"
Chairman August Hermann, of the
National Baseball Commission, has
communicated with the Provost Mar
shall to declare that his system will
wreck the game. He calls attention
to the fact that 25S baseball players
of the 800 players carried on the re-
serve lists of the sixteen major
league clubs will be forced to seek
other employment If the amended
selective service regulations issued
from Washington yesterday are
strictly enforced.
eff the regulations as issued are
to be applied to these 25s ball play
ers of the major leagues that are af-
fected," said Chairman Herrmann's
statement. 'it will absolutely crush a
business that has more than $S,000,-
900 capital invested, exclusive of the
value of their franchises and play
ers."
In his statement Chairman Herr
mann said: "The book value of the
combined plants of the sixteen clubs,
not including the franchise value or
the value of players. is sS,637,75412,
while the amount subscribed by the
officials and stockholders of the vari-
Gus clubs for Liberty Bonds amount
ed to $S.522, ,450."
