Patriot-News ball tossers last evening

for this triumph, and not forgetting
a kind word to the Telegraph short
stop, Frank Manley, who collected
some snow on his feet in the final
session and let pass a fairly easy
grounder which went as a hit for
Sands. Only for this breach of good
baseball the game might be going

The Patriot-News showed i'm

when they were easy prey for the
Telegraph legion. In-again, out
again Holohan pitched for the win

example, in the first, two men scored
when Richwine led off with single
followed by Losh with another and

Six Detroit Girls

Detroit--Over the wires came a
story to the effect that Miss Louise
Freeman, of Cincinnati, Ohio, was
the first girl in the Middle West to
be granted a first grade wireless Ii
cense" upon her completion of the
course at Hunter College. New York
City, but at least six Detroit girls,
each of whom possesses a first grade
wireless license dated January 25,
1918, are ready to refute the claim.
AS a result the class of men and
women took an examination under
Federal radio representative in De-
troit last January.
Several of the above "flunked out"
on the examination, but these young
women possess first grade licenses,

New Confidence Game
Developed by the War

Detroit, Mich. - Beware of the
"wife of drafted man" with fur
niture to sell-ckeap.
The warning that new variation
of the old game of Am moving south
and must sell my furniture at sac
rifice" is being tried was sounded by
A. G. Baird, assistant United States
district attorney.
A tearfully detected but beautiful
young woman is usually the star
performer in the swindle. An adver-
tisement appears advising the pub
lie that cruel war has torn O loved
husband from charmingly fur
nished household and thereby rem
dered 1t desolate.
Inquiry at the address reveals the
wife" implanted among Costly
wedding gifts in a cozy fiat denuded
of the breadwinner. She will sell Mt
a sacrifice so she can join her hubby
at a nearby army post or go home to
mother.
The tears and the sad tale win.
The purchaser empties his pocket
book. Then an unsympathetic friend
tells him that his newly acquired
household scenery is worth about
half what he paid for 1t. If he in
vestigates further he will invariably
find that it came from a nearby fur
niture dealer who pays the wife" a
salary.

In one of the fastest and clever
est games ever played in the Allison
Hill League, the Galahad nine nosed
out Hick-A-Thrift by l to 0 score.
The seven innings were played in a
few minutes over one hour and were
witnessed by a large crowd.
kid" Shay was on the mound for
the winners and won his fourth game
out of five starts. He was opposed
by kid" Stricken, of Tri-state and
Dauphin-Perry fame. Both twirlers
pitched alright ball, three hits be-
ing collected by each side. Shay had
the better of the argument in the
matter of strikeouts, tanning twelve
"Hickie" batters' in the seven in
nings. Stricken whitfield four.
The Galahads won the contest in
the very first inning. Cobaugh reach
ed first on McCord's error. He was
advanced to second by Kline and
came home on "Bill' Reiff's clean
single. There was no more scoring
on either side.
Minnich and Schaeffer both played
good games behind the bat, only one
base being stolen. The Hick-A-
Thrifts were unable to break into
the winning column despite the fact
that their forces were augmented by
Ike" McCord. Minnich, Stricken and
Weaver. This quartet has made a
record in the Dauphin-Perry and
Tri-State Leagues, and should help

Harrisburg should heartily patron
ize the splendid grammar school
track meet which takes place on
Thursday afternoon at the Island
under the supervision of the Track
Athletic Committee which is doing
it's best now to make amends for the
failure to have a. High School meet
this year. In some measure this
one, taking in hundreds of little fell
lows, is far more important and in
teresting than the other. It is rugged,
wholesome exercise that the youth
of America need to make this a
robust nation, say all the Army men
who are figuring largely in present
activities. Harrisburg is more than
doing her share of supplying sinew
to the nation, for no city of its size
has a finer company of athletes. Pa
rents, relatives, friends and even
they who have no acquaintance
among the youthful, daring contest
ants, have a responsibility to at
tend this carnival of physical en-
durance and applaud the youngsters
as they strike to win.
The show will be we'll worth see
ing, for fine program of events is
arranged. Perhaps the capital con-
test will be the one-mile relay,
which tests speed and endurance. In
this Maclay school was lucky to draw
first position, the other entries be-
ing:
