INTER-CLASS CANES
VERY INTERESTING
FIRST GAME VERY CLOSE
SOphOmOres Beat Freshmen in the
First Game of Season. Juniors
Down Seniors.

The first game of the season was
played Thursday by the Freshmen and
Sophmores. The light aggressive team
of the freshmen gained repeatedly
over the heavier sophmores but at the
critical moment the soPhs would buck
up and hold the freshies for downs.
See-sawing up and down the field for
four quarters, both teams grew dis
couraged, things begged down. But
just as the spectators were leaving,
Richie, half for the sophs, leaped in
the air and, intercepting a pass, speed
ed down the field. Tackler after tack
Ter dived after him but he was tri-
umphant over all, placing the ball I'M
de rthe goal after running sixty-five
yards for the only score of the game.
Failed to kick goal.
Neither team was in good condition
but the freshmen had at least prac-
ticed while the sophs got up their sig
nails just before the game: Brester, for
the freshies, ran we'll at half, and
Buchanan used his head as quarter.
Applebaum saved the day when he re-
covered fumbled bali and passed it
forward some thirty yards.
For the sophomores, Callahan ran
very well. Fast and resourceful he
was one man in the back field who.
could gain around end. Unfortunate
ly, however, he sustained badly NUT
Hated nose. This is more of a detri-
ment to his beauty than a source OF
pain to him and the whole school re-
grets this unnecessary accident to
their favorite half. Long also showed
up good.
, The game as whole afforded a
good deal Of amusement to all the on
lockers and was full of class spirit.
The Junior-Senior game came off
Friday and was full of unexpected
happenings and gains. The Juniors
had the best of it the whole game and
defeated the "grand old seniors" to
the tune of 1910. It was quite an ex
citing affair and easily shows us who
is to be the champion Of the Univer-
sity.
The disaster to the seniors occurred !

SANTA AND THE MERKID.

The Pole where Santa has his shop
Is now wireless station,
And messages which reach it's top
Arrive from all creation.
TIL eother day one landed there
That set the saint to guessing:
"The Merkid wants a Teddy Bear!
Good gracious how distressing"
For this was what made Santa blue,
And reused such sad emotion
The merkid lived mile or two
Beneath the bounding ocean
"a mermaid fair, mermaid strong,
Whose habitat was water,
Had been norman and wife for long,
The merkid was their daughter
Old Santa gave a dismal gloan,
And muttered, "jumpin' jimney!
don't believe the merman's own
A cubic foot Of chimney.
And yet l simply must not fail
The merkid, without striving,

For just to see it wag its tail
Would pay for miles Of driving"
The reindeer would not leave their
sled
And baked at ocean cruising;'
cit gives us NAL de mer," they said,
"Our meals we'll be losing"
So Santa took submarine
He'd borrowed from the Germans,
And soon appeared upon the scene,
Among the waggish mermans.
But when they saw the Teddy Bear
No fishlike tail was wagging,
The Merkid and the norman fair
Gave Santa Claus Raging.
Their rage alas! Knew no restraint
Toward Teddy and his maker,
They set the dog-fish on the saint,
And called him nature-faker.

PLEA GOES OUT
TO INDUSTRIES
[Continued from First Page.l

CONTINUED from First Page.l
the industrial and business estab-
llshments of Harrisburg did not do
their full duty. 1t is the idea that
citizens will select from the list of
$500 the name or names of those
in whom they are interested, and
subscribe $40 for each person. Carry
ing this thought to your plant the
idea would be that you ascertain
the number of people who served in
the war, either in the Army, Navy,
Marines, Red Cross or War Work.
and either as a contribution from
your firm or through solicitation of
your employees, or both, contribute
$40 for each one. If this is done
we will have enough money for our
memorial and to pay the Welcome
Home expense.
From present indications there
will be considerable rivalry as to
which industries are the first to
make their 100 per cent, reports.
Won't you see to it, please, that
your report is in as early as pos
sible?"
Many Already Subscribe
While many persons have already
gone to the Chamber of Commerce
and have taken out cards for which
they paid $40, the names of the SOL
diers thus remembered will not be
published in the newspapers until
next Monday-the day the campaign
really opens. During the balance
of the campaign the daily newspa-.
pers will publish names as subscrip-
tions are received.

Right to Hold Free
Assemblages Captivates
Interest of Workers
By associated Press.

Pittsburgh, Pa, Oct. 3.-The fight
of union leaders for the right of
free speech and free assen,blage"
in Allegheny county, continues to
be the most interesting feature Of
the steel workers strike in the Pitts
burgh district. According TO stfike
leaders, county officials and authori-
ties of municipalities are avoiding
responsi billy for prohibiting mass
meetings and, as a result they say
the workers lawful right to assem-
bic and hear speeches is being
abused.
Strike leaders announced to-day
that they had sent evidence con-
cerning the conflict of authority on
the holding of meetings to William
u. Foster, secretary of the strikers
national committee who is in Wash
ington. He will bring the matter to
the attention of the Senate COM
mittee investigating the strike.

AVOID THE FLU
BY KEEPING
LIVER ACTIVE
Doctors Find Calotabs, the New
Nauseaiess Calomel, Best Lax
ative for Colds and Preven-
tive for Influenza and Pneu-
monia.

To cut short a cold overnight, to
stop a sore throat, and to put the sys-
tenn in the best possible condition to
avoid influenza and pneumonia, doc
tors are advising the new nausealess
calomel, called Calotabs. which are
free from the sickening and salivating
effects of the old style calomel. At
the first sign of cold or sore throat,
it is best to take a Calotab at once,
before the Inflammation has gone too
far. You may thus save yourself a
spell of sickness.
One Calotab at bedtime with a swal-
low of water-that's all. No salts, no
nausea, nor the slightest interference
with eating, work or pleasure. Next
morning your cold has vanished, your
liver is active, your system is puritied
and refreshed and you are feeling tine
with a hearty appetite for breakfast.
Perhaps you can congratulate yourself
that stitch in time" has saved you
serious illness. Calotabs are sold only
in original sealed packages, price
thirty-five cents. Your druggist recon-.
mends and guarantees Calotabs and
will cheerfullp give back your money
IL you are not delighted.-Adv.

CHARGES CLIQUE
AGAINST HINES
Col. W. A. Starritt Says
Chicago Speedway Hos
pital Was Admirable.

That IAN inside clique" antag-
onistic to Edward Hines had much
to do with an unfavorable report to
the War Department on the Chicago
Speedway Hospital project came out
in evidence given by Col. w. A.
Starritt before the subcommittee of
the Senate Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds yesterday.
Col. Starritt had been sent to Chi
cago to make an investigation by c..
willing Hare, secretary to Assistant
Secretary Of War Crowell.
rs 1t not a fact" asked Judge
Bennett of the witness. that you.
on your frst day there interviewed
those who were on the committee of
the Union League Club seven years
ago in the little 'mix-up' about Ed
ward Hines, and that you based
your telegram to the War Depart
ment solely on what they told your"
Calls Project Admirable.
They did tell me he had been ex-
PEELED, but l wish to say that I then
and do now say that the assertions
that he would gain by the deal were
not sustained. The Speedway pro-
ject was an admirable one for the
government and they would have
saved q great deal on It"
He also testified to getting a re-
port handed to him from a Mr.. Clark
that he supposed came from J. Mil
ton Trainers partner.
Maj. Voorhees, testified that Jarvis
Hunt, "a close business associate
of both Trainer and Clark, was in
terested in another hospital project
rAI
he intended to form a company to
erect all government hospitals
throughout the country.
'Mr. Hunt is not a close busi-
ness associate Of Mr.. Trainer" said
Mr.. Adcock Trainer.
Hunt owns 40 per cent and
Trainer and Clark nifty per cent of
sixteen-story office building in
Chicago" replied Judge Bennett.
II. B. Wheelock, a Chicago achitect,
testified that he was present in Jacob
Newman's office and denied the testi-
mony of Trainer and Clark that
George Shank had offered to pay them
a commission. mo such conversation
ever took place" he said. Then he
told of meeting Mr.. Trainer coming
out of Col. Frank Billings office and
that the latter had told him two men
had Just been in to see him on an
other hospital plan.
Il was not in Washington at the
time" said Mr.. Trainer arising, and
hence the meeting did not take place. 4"
1T did take place" said the witness,
pointing his finger at Mr.. Trainer.

to your companion at that time, Mr.

Trainer did not reply.
Both sides will sum up today as to
whether ]. Milton Trainer attempted
to solicit a bribe of 100000 from Ed
ward Hines to get the Speedway

JAPS DENY AID
Offer TO RUSS
Embassy Declares No Men,
Money or Munitions Were
Mentioned at Omsk.

The Japanese Embassy yesterday de-
MED cabled reports from Vladivostok
that an offer of men, money and NUM-
tions by Japan to the Omsk govern
ment had been accepted by the Rus
SLAMS.
The officials OF the legation believe
the report may have arisen through
expressions by leaders OF the Omsk
government, who sought to allay fears
of the Siberians that the government
would fall, following the proposed
withdrawal of the allied troops.
1t was admitted at the State De-
partment that rumors have been heard
that Japan was considering aid to the
Omsk government but the rumors
have not been confirmed through any
official agency. 1t is pointed out that
il Is highly unlikely that Japan would
take such a step. It has been as
sumed that Japan was using her Of
fees to persuade all factions Of Russia

ence.
TIE State Department announced
yesterday that the total revenues of
the Omsk government for the last
six months of last year totaled 26S,-
100000 rubles. or approximately s134,-
100000. II is believed that a large part
of this collection was made possible
through the administration aids given
by the allies.
Reports from Vladivostok received
by the Department Of Commerce
show that the Omsk government has
loaned about $4,000 to railroads in
two months. The warehouses in
