Ambition Of All Flyers.

Ever since flying in heavier-than-
air machines has been demonstrated
as practicable" said the American
officer. II think I can safely say that
the one great idea in the back of
every flyers mind was the crossing
of the Atlantic. I know it was my
ambition, and that OF every officer
under my command. to go straight
across But being a conservative or
ganization, the American Navy plan
ned a conservative trip. with stops at
the Azores and at Portugal / take
great pleasure, however in being
able to present one of the two men
who tried and actually accomplished
the feat, which every aviator would
have liked to accomplish
Sir Arthur is on this continent to
push the idea of the utility and the
safety of aerial navigation for COM
mercial purposes. He urged, however.
that its development should not be
forced to such an extent that losses
of life and of capital may retard its
progress He prophesied that within
five years regular aiship lines car
rying passengers and mail will be in
operation between the United States
and England, and that the time is not
far distant when a town that lacks
an aerodrome and landing field will
not be on the map"

Catcher Hippensteel Is
Back With Marysville

Albert c. Hippensteel, former star
catcher of the Marysville Dauphin-
Perry League team and now with
the Motive Power team of the Har-
risburg West End Twilight League,
has again been signed by the Marys-
vile management and will make
his initial appearance in the Dau-
phin-Perry this year on August 16.
Hippensteel had been signed up
earlier in the season by Manager
Stees and had been expected to do
all catching. but was stricken with
appendicitis just before the opening
of the season. Earl Killinger was
then signed up and has caught all
of the Marysville games thus far,
but his name has now been with
drawn since he will henceforth catch
for the American Chain and Steel
Company team, of York. Killinger
caught his last game for Marysville
on Saturday.
Keller, the Marysville lad who
recently returned from Army serv-
ice, is expected to hold forth behind
the bat during the next two weeks
until Hippensteel is eligible for play.
Ellenberger and Mutch will be held
in reserve.

work of Bob" Shreiner, Glen

brought much applause and praise.
Charley Yahn played good game
but in hard luck.

Blakely, the Pottsville men. 1t was
in the second set and after the vis-
ltors had captured the first that the
score in games stood three to one
against the locals. With a sudden
squirt the Harrisburgers won the
next five games and the set and
took the next set seven to five after
it had run to deuce.
