Chicago, Oct 9. - Commenting
upon the relationship between
strategem and spoils accruing
therefrom, James Crusinberry COM
ments as follows in the Tribune:
1T is rumored that Manager MO
ran has his board of strategy around
him in some secret place every day.
This board of strategy stuff seems
to be a good thing. too. There didn't
seem much doubt but that they had
a secret series staff that obtained
pretty good line or dope on every ono
of Gleason's players
Anyway, right in the first game
they were pitching in the proper
manner to the various batters and
they were playing in the proper
places to handle anything hit by the
Sox. They acted like a bunch that
had been playing in the American
League all summer and seemed so
we'll instructed on the dope that they
made few mistakes. 1t may be re-
membered that back in 1910, when
the Athletics and Cubs played for
the big title, the Cubs were hot IA

ward the plate, pitched 11S times
yesterday to win his first game of
the World Series and redeem him
self from two previous defeats.
He hurled 46 strikes and SO
balls. There were 222 balls wing
ed in the seventh game yesterday

counted for 104 of them, pitching
fewer balls to meet defeat than Ci-

The Reds nicked Cicotte's offerings
thirty times, seven of them going
safe. Thirteen were grounders and
ten went into the air.
In Sallee's four-inning introduce
ton to q beating he pitched 51 balls.
Fifteen were strikes and thirteen
balls. The Six hit him to fair field
twenty-three times. Fisher hurled
eight balls before he was sheltered
in the dugout. Luque hurled forty
five times in four innings, nineteen
being strikes and sixteen balls.
Eddie's best stanza was the
fourth, when he whipped the pill
over seven times. His high record
was twenty-one when he wabbled in
the fifth. Sallee retired the SoX on
five balls in the second. He pitched
twelve in the fifth before the as
bestoS fell.
Cicotte pitched but ninety-four
balls in the game he lost against

More Games For Local Fans
on Electrical Scoreboard

The sudden turn of the Chicago
White Sox in the Worlds Series has
set the baseball fans of Harrisburg
on edge and a great crowd turned
out to-day at Chestnut Street Audi
torium to see the eighth game of the
series on Lew Ritter's wonderful
electric player board.
All during the series the real base
ball fans have been witnessing the
great series on the Ritter board
which shows in detail every possible
play of the game. There is no other
board which compares with the Rit-
ter electric player and no other
where every play can be depicted
without a certain amount of guess
work. A wire direct with the fields
at Chicago and Cincinnati has
brought the news to Chestnut Street
Auditorium from five to eight min
utes ahead of any other service be-
ing received in Harrisburg.
Should Chicago win to-day and tie
up the series one of the greatest
crowds that has ever packed Chest
nut Street Auditorium Is expected to-
morrow for the ninth and final game.
Chestnut street will be the place to
see the great finish and Harrisburg
fans will root loudly for Pat Moran's
Reds to win IL they do not turn
the trick to-day.

Banking System Opened
at Edison Junior High

Those who are responsible for the
development of democratic habits
among the citizens of Edison Com
munity are anxious to add to the
commonly recognized virtues of
democracy the habit of thrift. With
this aim in view they have arranged
that the system, whereby the stu
dents of the lower grades are grant
ed facilities to bank their savings
from week to week, be extended to
the citizens of the Edison Com
munity. This banking system was
started in the school this week and
hereafter the First Division will bank
on Tuesday and the Second Division
will bank on Wednesday.
The treasurer of each class will
see that the money is collected and
credits properly listed. This system
teaches the citizen the method of
banking as well as the habit of saw
ing. In a number of rooms the
students are pledging themselves to
save the money they have been
spending for gum and candies. In
others they are pledging themselves
to cut visits to the movies and bank
the funds saved.

Pennsylvania fiourished during the

that the number of Pennsylvanians
making income tax returns during
the first year of the war was eight
times the number of those report

that of the total. fully half of the
