"GARRY" HERMANN ALWAYS
LOYAL BASEBALL SUPPORTER;
IS GOOD MONEY LOS r

I nowned peace agreement which
really put baseball on an organized
! basis
Anxious For Pennant
For years both Mr.. Hermann and
his associates in the Cincinnati club
staunchly supported losing propo-
sition, but despite this they erected
magnificent concrete grandstand
which is known as Redland Field.
While numerous fans have insisted
that the team would be better with
Hermann Off the National Commis-
sion no one ever has accused the
Reds president of not doing all in
his power to gather together PEN
nant-winning combination. During
his presidency, he obtained such
men as Bid McPhee, Joe Kelley,
Clarke Griffith, Hank O'Day, John
Camel, Joe Tinker and Christy
Mathewson to lead his team, but it
remained for Pat Moran to succeed
where the others had failed.
Hermann probably is the best
known man to baseball men, mas
much as he has had much to do
with both major leagues as well as
having become familiar with the
owners and players of every minor
league in organized baseball through
his position as chairman of the
commission. He was born ana
raised in Cincinnati and during his
early career was printer on the
Cincinnati Enquirer. He still be-
longs to this union.
Opposed Plans
While Garry Hermann never has
been accused of being superstitious,
he let it be known during the latter
part of July that all plans of the
fans to do wonderful things for the
Reds if they won the pennant, would
most certainly be frowned upon by
the club management This brought
to mind a little sidelight to the
league race of two years ago when
the Reds were almost daily alter
mating between first and second
positions during the middle of July.
At that time a bunch of enthu-
siastic rooters started out subscrip-
ton lists to have money pledged to
send the team on a trip around the
world and it had hardly been start
ed before $4,000 had been pledged
No one ever will know to what
proportions this pool would have
grown, for at this stage the team be-
gan to lose and on their return from
a disastrous eastern invasion they
were practically out of the race and
the pledgers never were troubled for
the money.

Word That Game Is Sure;
Award Letters

Everything has been satisfactorily
adjusted and the wilkes Barre High
School team will appear on Tech S
schedule over on the Island Satur-
day afternoon as the second attrac-
ton for the season. For several
days 1t looked as though the coal
region boys would not come to this
city to play their game. But word
received by Manager BUS" Snyder
assures him that the visitors will
be on hand to tackle Tech.
A feature of the coming game will
be the cheers of the Tech boys.
Cheer leaders have been selected,
and during the coming week they
will get the cheering squad to work
to learn a number of new yells and
parodies.
Select Leaders
Five seniors from a field Of IL

of the school. The dozen members
of the fourth year class mounted the
platform and gave the remainder of
the school a chance to see how we'll

will be chief cheer leader, as he re-
ceived the highest number of votes.
Hefl1in, Atkins. Morgan and Huston
are the other leaders. Huston's
brother was leader two years ago.

Edison Grid Stars Show
Real Football Form;
Practice Every Evening

Candidates for positions on the
Edison Community football team
were put through their first real
practice last evening. Coaches
Miller and Hitler had a squad of
more than forty boys lined up for
scrimmage. A group OF eleven were
picked and sent against the rest
The personnel of this eleven were
constantly changed by shifting boys
from one group to the other. Some
very good playing was done by the
boys. The backfeld men showed
good form and the tackling of a
number of the line men was quite
good.
Lentz at quarter seems to be de-
veloping into a heady player. He
runs a team well. Notwithstanding
the lack of uniforms the spirit of
the boys is excellent and rivalry
keen. Each fellow is putting forth
his best efforts to qualify for a new
set of togs when they come. Prac-
tees will be the order each evening
after school on the grounds at Seven
teenth and Chestnut streets. Student

FIGHT FANS TO
GET REAL ACTION
Joe Barretfs Bill Tonight
Promises Much Interest;
Two Star Bouts

Manager Joe Barrett announced
to-day that everything, to the small
es. detail has been arranged, and
every man on his card will posi-
lively appear, for his boxing show
tonight, at the Olympia A. c., in
Steelton. Boys on the bill are ex-
pected to furnish more real fight
ing than any show ever presented in
this section. Two star bouts are on
the bill, the feature being ten rounds
between Billy Angelo, the Yorker,
who claims the Greek lightweight
championship and Billy Logan, of
Allentown, champion of the coal
regions.
The six-round battle these two put
up two weeks ago, furnished more
thrills than was ever crowded in this
limit, and the longer bout was ar
ranged after many fans requested it.
This distance should make a decisive
fight.
frankie Britt, of Boston, is Bar
| rett'S selection to meet the winner,
in a future show as Britt, recently
beat Joe Tiplitz, after T1plitz
knocked out George CLANCY, of Bal
timore, in three rounds.
The other star bout is between
Young Fulton, of Allentown, a great
local favorite and Kid Richmond,
of Baltimore, boxing partner to Kid
| Williams, the dethroned but unde-
| feated bantam champion of the
| world. While Fulton won many
| friends by defeating every one he
met in local rings, in two seasons,
Richmond is much tougher, is clever
and a ring general.
Jack Cleaver, another from Allen
town. says he will stop Billy Atticks'
4 winning streak tonight, ip the sec
! ond bout on the card. In his three
last fights, Atticks knocked his men
out in jig time, and the fans are
anxious to see him put to the test.
which the battle with Cleaver will
surely do.
Hal Shay, another local boy, will
also likely meet a tartar in Harry
| Cronic, the Yorker, who recently re-
ceived his discharge from the Navy.
1t is the opening bout This looks
like the most real action ever given
in one night, and the usual packed
house, will no doubt greet the bat
| tiers. Barrett will referee all the
bouts personally and the first bout
will start at $40 sharp, with no
| delays.

Cincinnati, Oct 1.-Sixteen years
ago, on September IL, 1903, the
name of August Hermann was
heralded throughout the width and
breadth of the land where baseball
fourishes as the chief justice OF the
national pastime. At that time he
was incidentally known as the new
owner of the Cincinnati Reds This
condition OF public mind had not
changed until late in July of this
year when the Reds assumed lead
in the National League race.
To-day Garry" as he is known.
not only to his intimates but to the
baseball public in general, is chiefly
recognized as president of the Reds,
champions of the National League,
and only incidentally as chairman
of the National Baseball Commits
sion.
In this city Hermann numbers
his friends by the tens of thousands
and there are a large majority of
these who do not hesitate in saying
that when baseball gained leader
in August Hermann, politics lost
one. He was associated with the
late George b. Cox, as a member
of the executive council of the Re
publican party in Hamilton county,
and while in late years he has taken
no active interest IN guiding IIe
destinies of the G.. O. P, he still
is able to WELD an influential arm
in the party conferences.
Was PeaCemakcr
1t was while Hermann was one
81 Cox's chief lieutenants that the
Question of purchasing the Cincin-
flati baseball club from the late John
r. Brush, was broached to MIN.
While he had always been interested
in baseball, purely from fans view
point, he never had been interested
in the club financially. The plea
that the club should be owned by
Cincinnati people only (Brush being
from Indianapolis) appealed to Mr..
Herman and he was induced 10
form a company with the object in
view of purchasing the Reds. He
succeeded in putting through the
deal and this led to his study OF
baseball political conditions as they
then existed. the celebrated war be-
tween the National and American
Leagues bringing up a situation TO
him that he had by no means anti
cipated.
Mr.. Hermann was really the
prime mover in bringing about
peace between the two leagues ana
he was the man who suggested and
did the most work on the now re-

OF these three candidates, Captain
Fishburn played at fullback on the

who came from st. Johns College,
and Berger. a Columbia (Pa.) boy
who played with his class eleven

for the position. Fishburn, how

SEWING MACHINES
BRING MONTENEGRO
INTO AMERICAN WAY
Twenty-nine Machines Have
Produced Hundreds of
Garments for Poor
(By United Press

| Podgoritza, Montenegro (By Mail)
! -Twenty-nine American sewing ma
chimes that have produced hundreds
of garments for the poor of Podgorit-
! "a are today the pathfinders in in
dustrial education for women in
Montenegro.
The sewing machines had been
used in the workroom of the Ameri-
can Red Cross here, where native
women were taught to sew and to
make over American hospital gar
ments for their poor. They will form
the nucleous Of the lrst Industrial
school for girls that Montenegro has
ever seen.
After turning out 2112 garments
for women and children in two
months, the supply of material gave
out, because of the difficulties of
Montenegreon transportation. The
machines stood idle. But the women
who had become so expert in sewing
| with them held a consultation. They
wanted the machines to keep on
working.
A committee under Mrs. Corovitch,
the forewoman who had cut out
every one of the Pip garments with
the care and thrift of an American
chapter worker, presented their plan
to the chief nurse. They asked for
the loan of the workroom and of the
Twenty-Five machines to start sew
ing school for the girls of Podgeritza.
Never before in the history of Mon
tenegro has there been industrial
education for young women. The
men, If they have the money, may go
to the gymnasium. But education for
girls-never! The twenty-three
women who had gained American
skill in two months had learned
something and with the aid Of the
Americans they planned the first sew
ing school. The school has just be-
gun, after turning away three times
the applicants it could admit.
