HAWK AND CROW SUGGESTION
Birds May Be Captured by Setting
Steel Traps on Poles Overlooking
Poultry Yard.

The New York college of agriculture
suggests that hawks may be caught by
setting steel traps on top Of tall posts
Or poles overlooking poultry yards. AS
to crows it Is sometimes effective to
kill one or two and hang them up
around the field where chickens run, in
order to keep others away. Any other
suggestions? Do crows bother chick
ems much?

ERIE MAY COME
HERE SATURDAY
Tech High Manager Is Trying
10 Secure Strong Attrac-
ton For Maroons

Tech High School knocked off"
period yesterday morning to cele-
brate the victory gained Saturday
over Grecnsburg High at that place.
Prof. Grubb told the story of the trip
from the time the team left Harris
burg amid the cheers of the student
body, until the final trip home Cap-I
tain Frank gave number of Incl
dents about the trip, after which the
cheer leaders mounted the platform
and gave cheer for each of the
members of the squad who made the
trip.
No practice was held last night so
that the squad would have chance
to rest after the hard battle. To-day
Coach Smith had the entire squad on
the field in preparation for game
Saturday. Manager Bus" Snyder
wired Erie High School to come here
for a game Saturday. The Erie lads
have not been scored on this year,
and claim to have hard time to get
opponents.
They say the crowd leaves the field
before half of the game is played.
because of the overwhelming score
by which Erie has been defeating her
rivals Erie claims the championship
of Ohio. Northwestern Pennsylvania
and southern New York. They lay
claim to being real champions and
dispute Techs claim.
Another Claimant
Ever hear of Fostorfa, Ohio? Out
in that burg" they have another
team that has not been scored on in
eight games. They also want a crack
at Tech. Faculty Director Grubb sent
letter to several Cleveland papers,
and replies have already begun to
come East. Then there is Masten
Park High, of Buffalo. They want to
come to Harrisburg December 6. Tech
is out for the championship, and will
| meet all comers. Local patrons are
| promised real sport before Tech final
| ly closes its season.
That local fans are back of the Tech
team is shown by the fact that 400
| rooters followed the team out to
Greensburg to see their favorites win
| the game. These same camp follow
ers raised enough cash to engage the
Latrobe Band. These musicians did
| much to enliven the crowd.
\ In case Erie High is not the oppon-
| ent Saturday either the Pitt Fresh
J men or the Army and Navy Prep
School. of Washington. d. c., will op-
pose the big Maroon eleven.

RULE TO
STOP LATE SALES
National League May Prohibit
the Unloading of Stars to
Strong Club

Chicago, Nov. 1S.-Serious effort
will be made at the annual meeting
of the National League early next
month to curb Il practice which
reached its height last season and
threatens to become worse unless
restricted. 1t is that of weaker
clubs selling players to pennant
contenders in the latter part of the
season when two or three owners
are willing to pay almost any price
to strengthen UP for the home
stretch.
Manager Moran of the world S
champion Reds has complained Bit
terly against the unwillingness of
the other National League club
owners to let go of any players to
help out Cincinnati when it was
crippled for lack OF an outfielder
but there seemed to be no unwill-
ingness to sell or trade pitchers to
the Giants when they were going
badly.
Fix Sale Limit.
There is strong sentiment in
favor of adopting rule that no
National League owner shall sell or
trade a player to another club in
that circuit subsequent to August
l. Some clubs are willing to fix II
as early as July /, while others favor
later dead line"
The commissions rules protect
the world series against any such
jockeying by rule that no player
shall be eligible to the post season
scrap unless under contract to his
team prior to September l. There
is nothing in the leagues rules to
prevent a club owner purchasing a
flock of players to use in the last
week of the championship race,
provided some losing owner is will
ing to sell them. The proposed rule
is designed TO guard against any
such possibility in the future and
to restrict trades in the same league
to the first half of the season.
If there had been such rule in
force in the American League this
year there would be no Mays maze
to tangle up the works in that cir
cult and the major organization
may follow the older leagues lead
and adopt one this winter.

GREAT JOCKEY IS
NOW BOOTBLACK
Victim of Drugs; Once Rode
Real Winners Had
Money

Chicago, Nov. 1S-Once he earned
more than $4,000 a year and was
the idol of the sporting world: to-
day he is working for u Greek,
shining shoes.
Former Jockey James Sims. a
negro, begged for morphine Satur-
day at the headquarters of the mar
Cotic squad in the Federal building
where he was taken as a witness in
a drug case.
Sims first became a follower of
the race track when he was 13
years old, and attracted the atten-
tion of Harry Payne Whitney, mil
sionaire horse fancier. who engaged
him as a jockey. Sims won many
famous stakes for the Whitney
stable, and during his career ranked
among the top-notch riders such
~as Isaac Murphy, Fred Taral, Tod
Sloan, Redfern, Doggett, Clayton,
Littlefield. and Griffin.
Sims rode Ben Brush to victory in
the Kentucky Derby OF 1896 and
two years later piloted Plauditt to
victory in the Blue Grass classic. He
rode the winners of the Belmont
stakes of 1S93-94. they being Com
anche and Henry of Navarro, re-
spectively. In 1897 he brought Ben
Brush home a winner in the Brigh-
ton handicap. and again piloted the
winner the following year in Orna-
ment. He captured the Suburban
. handicap in 1897. with Ben Brush.
and the Withers stakes of 1S96-97
with Handspring and Octagon. re-
Spectively. In 1894 he rode the
celebrated Dobbins to victory in the
Dwyer stakes and again won it with
Octagon in 1897. The fremont
stakes of 1897 was another winning
race for Sims when he piloted Hand
ball home in front.
During the last years of his
career as a rider. however, he
smoked opium to keep his weight
; down and never was able to free
himself from drugs.
When Sims was at his best as a
jockey, his earnings, including re-
<ceipts from bets, sometimes amount
ed to as high as $4,000 a year.
What are you doing now?" asked
a Federal agent.
I'm ashamed to tell you," said
Sims, with a hanging head. I'm
shining shoes for a Greek. I've
been broke for years"

Education for poor boys is the plan
opened in the fail Of 1920. according

Carson, pastor Of the Centra! Prcsby-

Presbyterian institution which is to
Long Island what Nor;hheld is to

The college is to be erected on the
grounds OF the assembly at Stony

uals and benevolent organizations.
DR. Carson declared the time ripe
for the foundation OF a high grade
college for ambitious youths who are
precluded by lack of means from at
tending existing institutions, and he
further said that the needs Of the
age demanded that such a college for
poor boys should be Christian in

Construction OF the necessary col

These will contain class ard lecture

auditorium which has been used Tor
summer conferences and which is
suitable for a college auditorium. The
two established hotc.s, Johnston Hall
