THREE Wins START
MACKS ON STREAK
Third Game of Series With Bal
timore Orioles Down for
Decision Today
WALKER STILL is ABSENT
WALKER STILL is ABSENT
BY EDWIN J. POLLOCK

Z. Mack has started the 1919 season
on the right road. The AS have ex-
hibitcd in three ball games and all
nave resulted in victories. True
enough, the games were not champion
snip ones. but time was not long ago
when it was considered quite feat for
tne Mackmen to win three contests OF
no matter what variety.
The men of Mack began by parceling
out ID to 4 rout to Swarthmore Col
lege and then came pair of wins dur
ing the week end at Baltimore. Satur-
days tilt brought ) to 4 triumph and
Yesterday the Shibe laborers copped a
to decision in an extra round. Jack
Dunn's Orioles appear here this after
noon for the third tiff of the series.
The game will start at 3 o'clock
kopp's Bat Busy
Merlin Kopp had lot to do with the
saturday victory. He contributed
three hits. one of which was a triple.
to the Mack total and he cut off the
tying run at the plate in the ninth with
neat peg to the plate. Merlin had
only one hit yesterday. but four hits
out Of nine attempts isn't bad for n
ball player in his first two days of
practice.
Roy Grover and Joe Dugan proved
that they possessed the punch yester-
day. Grover came through with trio
of hits and Dugan punched home run
in the tenth, which clinched the
triumph. Previously Thomas whacked
a single which permitted Roth to hop
across the disk with the winning run.
Tilly Walker has not put in an ap
pearance as yet and Mack is beginning
to worry about his star outfielder. If
he does not report at the Shibe' home
today. the lean leader intends to burn
up the wires and find out the why's
and wherefores of the delay. lilly
writes that he has been training at his
farm and is in good shape.
To Visit Donlin
The men of Mack are going to act rs
il they We're on a regular training trip
tonight and take in show en- masse.
They will visit the Garrick Theatre to
take peep at Mike Donlin. former
Giants star. who has one of the lead :
ing roles in Turn to the Right"
Mack did not use Bob Geary at Bal :
timore, and it is likely that he will start
off with him on the tee this afternoon.
Frank may be sent back at the AS.

Chairman M. E. Allen, of the county
election board, today announced that
the board had called a special cleo

Attn DISTRICT CITIZENS
DENY MOB WAS FORMING

Citizens of the Fourth district deny
that there was ever any genuine SEN
timent for the formation of a mob in
that section to deal summarily with
Charlie Harvie, alleged betrayer of
his own daughter. One prominent cit
izen of that district, who himself be-
lieves the man is guilty, stated this
morning that he believes that Harvie
could be given preliminary trial at
Rally Hill or Pottsville without danger
OF a mob. The people of that section
are law abiding and want HarYie to be
given a fair trial with every just OPP
portunity to vindicate himself, it was
said, and they would not tolerate a

is said to have boarded a train at CO.

some that he probably has returned to
the vicinity of his home and will even

terials to est the old world on its legs
again. 1t is obviou sat the very best,
our repair bills will be only partial
ly met. There wont be any indemni.
ties from which the world will be able
to finance the development Of the Ger
man colonies, Turkish territories, or
the new republics which are strug-
Cling upward in eastern and south
eastern Europe. The only hope for
the worlds future is for America to
step into world politics and give the
league the necessary finacial backing
to put its program or sound basis.
Eve recognize that one of the chief
difficulties in maintenance of the
league is that democratic states are
loath to commit themselves Indefinite
ly to supplying troops to fight in any
part of the world to uphold the
leagues authority That difficulty
need not arise. Great Britain and the
United States are recognized as hold
ing the chief weapons of the league
economic perssure-the method of ex-
ercising which is naval force. If the
United States and Great Britain agree
to place their naval power at the dis
posal of the league, ! don't see how
any nation will ever again dare to
even think of war.
IF the United States and Great Brit
ain had been able in 1914 to apply
blockade to Germany such sthey ap-
piled early in 1918, it is doubtful if
Germany would ever have started the
war. Certainly, she could not have
continued it very long. Germany has
learned the effectiveness of the block
ade as weapon and it is most unlike
ly she can ever build a feet capable
Of competing with us for generations.
Therefore, one Of the beginnings of
the security of the world--the aim
and object Of the league-will be naval
cooperation by Gerat Britain and
America in behalf of the league.
Americas share Of this weapon must
correspond to her weapon of impor-
lance.
In peace time the seas are natural
ly free. The conferees are now taking
the question of waterways and ports,
whereby they will be made even more
free. If war threatens the league,
there is no saying how far this free
dom will be limited through blockade
or other means.
With the American and British
fleets as the naval police of the league
teh chief means of enforcing it's au-
thority and decisions would rest with
the two nations which are perhaps
bets fitted politically and tempera-
mently to bear such a responsibility" /

the Cincinnati orchestra, under Ysaye,
once greatest of all violinists, now
greatest of all conductors, in its re-

tempt work approaching in technical
