GAMES SATURDAY
ON DIP CIRCUIT
Newport to Clash With Marys-
vile; Important Contest;
Port Royal at Duncannon
To-morrow's Games
Marysville at Newport.
Port Royal at Duncannon.

Important games are scheduled in
the Dauphin-Perry League to-mor-
row when Marysville lines up against
Newport at Newport and Port Royal
and Duncannon grapple at the lat
ter place. Victories for Newport and
Port Royal with a defeat for Marys-
vile, would tighten up the league
race.
The Newport -Marysville game on
Marshall Field, Newport, promises
to be the most important game of
the day. A victory for Newport
would move that aggregation to
within one and one-half games of
the front rung. Manager Stees, of
Marysville, however promises to
make things interesting even though
he will be compelled to send a Grip
pied team against the upper end
aggregation.
Gcrdes Out of Game
Marysville will be without the
services of Shortstop Gerdes and
Centerfielder Lightner, two of the
heaviest hitters on the team, when
play is called. Keller or Ellenberger
will likely be used in one of the
infield positions with the possibility
that either Moore or Herman will
be sent to short from their regular
positions at second and first. In
the outtield Keller or Ellenberger
will be used i'll center with one of
the youngsters on the teams roster
covering right field.
Abner Hippensteel former star
catcher of the Marysville .aggrega-
ton who was sick at the beginning
OF the season, will be seen behind
the bat. Mower appears to be the
most probable selection for mound
duty although Harry Biever may be
used.
Newport's reliable aggregation
Will take the field with few changes.
Dutch Corners is scheduled to work
out on the mound, but the receiy-
ing selection is somewhat uncer-
tam. q. Swartz, his battery mate on
the Reading team of the Allison Hill
League may be used, although the
choice may fall on Joe kearns, the
Newport lad who has been behind
the bat in every game this season.
K. Wagner will not be in the line
up at first base and his brother,
Norman Wagner, will be pulled in
from centerfield to cover the in
itial sack. This will mean that
Clyde Doner, the Newport youngster
who has been playing a high grade
or ball, Will be sent 10 the outfield,
In the event that Swartz is sent be-
hlnd the bat, 1t will be necessary to
pull, Shreffler. nonresident right
fielder, from the lineup and use a
Newport youth. Dick" Nebinger
will umpire.
Port Royal in Form
Flushed with their victory over
Marysville last Saturday in their
initial game since their admittance
to the Dauphin-Perry League, Port
Royal will go to Duncannon to line
up against the rejuvenated team of
that borough. Duncannon has been
playing better grade of ball dur
ing the past several weeks and may
make things interesting.
The Port Royal lineup will be
practically the same as that used
in the Marysville game last Sat
urday. Melvin Farmhouse, former
star Duncannon thirdsacker, will
continue to hold down the hot corner
Charley Bailor will be used behind
the bat, while Troutman, who hurled
last week, will likely be on the
mound. Bill Ritter, formerly of
the New York Giants, may be used,
however.
Duncannon's lineup will be prac-
tically the same as that which was
used with telling effect against
Newport last Saturday. The changed
infield left little trickle past it. "Os''
Waltz will likely be behind the bat
with kid" Stricken on the mound
Stricken has been in the best of
form this week and will make things
interesting. Clint" White will UNI
pire.

knauss. No further changes will
be permitted. The list follows:
