Blame Uncle Sam For
Perry League Troubles

Uncle Sans mail came in for blame
at the Dauphin-Perry League meet
ing last evening. in the controversy
! raised by the protest of Newport of
her defeat by Duncannon at New
port. on June %. Manager Duncan
presented a strong case and the game
was permitted to stand as played,
by a unanimous vote.
The protest arose over the ellgi-
bility of Pitcher Moss, of Duncannon,
who hurled throughout the game in
question.
Newport contended that the name
had never been filed and circulated
among the several teams and this
contention was borne out by ether
representatives On Duncannon's
side of the case, a letter was pro-
duced, GATED June 6, in which it was
mentioned that additional names of
resident players had been mailed to
Presilent Krauss three days earlier.
Newport continues to hold down
the second rung in the league ladder,
two games behind MarysVille in the
first place. Millersburg is one-half
game below Newport with Dun
cannon trailing one game back Of
Millersburg.
Umpire and discipline questions
were among the other business mat
ters considered.

EISENBERGER is STAR in COMMONWEALTH VICTORY - LEV
Eisenberger Is Puzzle to
Motive POWer Sluggers

BY the score of to l the Com
monwealth Travellers trounced the
strong Motive Power team on the
West End league grounds at Fourth
and Seneca streets last evening. Ihe
crowd was one of the largest or the
twilight league season, spilling over
into the playing space of the teams.
Eisenberger and Bamford were the
opposing twirlers until the latter
lost his cunning on the mound and
gave way to Buck" Ramsey in the
final minutes of the sixth inning.
AsDuring that distressing period the
VSommo team collected three
runs. They previously had gathered
two off the usually puzzling Bam-
ford. Just to show that the Motive
Power twirlers We're looking alike
to them they snatched another run
from Ramsey and put the game on
ice. to the joy of a lot of rooters
who had journeyed from various
iSections of the city to see them win.

being Fields, Eisenberger. Gerds and
Walter Smith. McCurdy also hit one
of Eisenberger's slow balls for n
triple. Howe, the heavyhitting
back-stop for the Motive Power
: team, raped out double.
Motive Power scored it's only run
of the game in the final inning,
Weaver romping across the rubber
when McCurdy hit for three bases.
Weaver got on first base with a class
a single. He went to second when
Minnich sacrificed, the latter going
out at first when Eisenberger field
ed his infield bingle to Klugh. Ram

by Eisenberger. L. Bell ran for him,
and was caught at second on a quick
peg to Walter Smith. Eberly end

for the crafty Mr.. Lightner, who
came down from his Marysville
home to help defeat the Motive
Power, raped out n genuine single
on which he scored.
Much of the credit for the victory
goes to Eisenberger, who pitched
big league ball until the final inning,
when he seemed to ease up. He
struck out seven of the Motive

able hitters falling victims to a puz-
zling inshoot that completely baffl-
ed them and had them wrangling
with ooth umpires. In several in
stances Motive Power batsmen with
three balls and two strikes called
started for the first sack, certain
that the ball was wide as it neared
the plate had failed to curve over
the rubber. But it curved over all
rlght and Eisenberger smiled in
quite satisfaction over his success.
Great Pitching
He really was pitching better than
he knew how. He did not allow a
single rival a base on balls and
three of the five hits were to the
infield. and of the kind called sus-
plclous. Eisenberger fielded his
position well, too, having four out of
eight assists on hits that failed to
get out of the diamond. Gerdes led
at the bat for both teams, having
three hits out of four times at bat.
Walter Smith, who was playing out
OF his position, committed two er-
rors, but they did not prove costly
in the final analysis. In his eager
ness to field what proved to be a
long hit Gerdes probably prevented
Boss from retiring a Motive Power
batter at first. Boss was directly
in line to capture the bingle when
he was disconnected by Gerdes, who
could not field 1t, although he made
the effort. He could not be charg-
ed with an error inasmuch as he did
not touch the ball. but with a quick
field captain on the job he would
have been told to allow Boss to take
it.
Unable to Score
Each team had six men left on
bases. Ramsey gave the Common
wealth Travellers two passes and
Bamford also walked two. The Com
monwealth had the better of the
contest throughout the seven in
nings, for their moundsman showed
himself master of the situation.
Ramsey, who succeeded Bamford,
must be credited with four runs
against him, although it was while
Bamford was in the box that the
sacks were filled by Commonwealth
runners. They scored while Ramsey
was hurting. Likewise, the Com
monwealth eXcelled in stolen bases,
the pilferers being Lightner, Gerdes.
killinger (who stole twice. and
Eisenberger. Stewart got the only
stolen sack for Motive Power. The
game was full of interesting plays
and situations and the big crowd
enjoyed the battle thoroughly.
