"HE first comprehensive ana
coherent review Of the brief
history Of Communist rule IN
Hungary is contained in a
pamphlet just issued in London by
the publishing firm Of ". H. Smith
< Son. The writer, who signs HIM
JEFF by the pseudonym "Lumen,'
). seems TO have spent al Budapest the
period Of four months during which
Bella Kun held Hungary under his
sway. and seems TO be fairly con-
versant with Hungarian conditions.
Extracts from his narrative, with
comment, are printed below.
The Hungarian Communists came
into power on March p, 1919, after
c ant VI chae Karolyi. President Of
The Magyar Peoples Republic, de-
spsrirg because Of the hostile atti-
tudc Of he Allies. had turned over
the government to the Social Demo
Gratis. The latter at once invited
the Communist leaders, hated and
rig pissed before, but possessed Ct a
growing hold over the Budapest
asses, to share in the new admin
stration. II is at this point that
Lumen" prks up his narrative. His
tory reads, in part:
During the first days Of March
1919. there were riots in Budapest.
On February p sham agitator:

Germans provoked a demonstration
at the newspaper Office Of the Nap
svav'; they were repulsed by gov
eminent troops. but seven Of the
police were killed and forty-seven
presons wounded. The outbreak was
attributed TO the Communists; there
was Immediately a public demand
that they should be imprisoned as a
public danger. and thirty were ar
rested, including Bella Kun, Alpari
and Bella Vago. These three men
were very roughly handled ~ the
police, and it was said that Kun and
vago were believed to be dead when
they were carried to their cells. 1t
was soon established that the out
break had nothing to do with the
Communist party, and there was
revulsion of feeling in their favor;
they were removed to a better
prison, and it was actually in this
prison that negotiations for the rev.
dictionary government were con-
Quoted.
"As soon as the new government
came into power they all accepted
the Communist program, although
It may be doubted whether old So
cia.'sts. such as Garbai, who was
elected President, ever really ap-

The anonymous English writer
gives the following account Of the
personality OF the real leader Of

Again the giant basketball span

in the limelight. He Gagged five
goals from the field and played

And then he could never get hold

This will be the first time since
Leonard won the lightweight title
from Freddie" Welsh that he has
opposed Dundee. Previously Leonard
boxed Dundee four times, once in
1915 and three times in 1916 All these
bouts were ten-round, no decision
affairs in which both boxers were al
ternately given popular decisions.
Leonard and Dundee have completed
their training. Leonard has paid
special attention to reducing his
weight. It is asserted that the title
holder is no longer eligible to defend
his championship at the legitimate
poundage. Leonard and his manager
declare they will refute this allega-
tion when Leonard weighs in, as re-
quired by the New Jersey law. The
contest is at catch weights, but the
law would prohibit the match If
either contestant has a weight ad-
vantage of more than ten pounds.
The management is taking precau-
tionary measures to prevent conges-
tion. 1t is planned to assign soldiers
in uniform for police duty and to dis
courage disturbances. The advance
sale is more than $1,000, it is report
ed. The promoters are anticipating
a capacity crowd. The seating facili-
ties of the armaky are arranged SO
as to accommodate a crowd of 1900.

GREAT BALLN
AUDITORIUM TO
BE GALA EVENT
Many Unusual Features to
Characterize Inaugural
Dance Tomorrow

The inaugural ball in the Chest
nut street auditorium tomorrow
night will be enhanced by a number
of unusual events which have been
planned by the special committee of
the Harrisburg Republican Club,
which has the event in charge.
Final arrangements have been
concluded, and nothing has been left
undone to make the dance q brilliant
social affair. The invitation list has
been exhausted and fully three thou
sand people are expected. Fifty floor
managers have been selected to
take charge of the floor. City and
state police will maintain order in
and about the building, while a
squad of uniformed firemen will fur
nish fire protection. Secret service
men from Philadelphia will furnish
additional protection to the large
crowd.
Fourteen persons will participate
in the spectacular tableaux. During
halgh, of the Philadelphia Metro
politan Opera Company, will sing
1.-The Star Spangled Banner"
The grand march, arranged in a
way entirely novel and original, will
be led so as to form the letters IS"
and "B" in honor of Governor
Sproul and Lieutenant-Govern
Beidleman.
The hall has been handsomely
decorated by employees of Dives,
Pomeroy & Stewart. Mild punch will
be served by group of young girls.
Handsome souvenir programs con-
tanning portraits of the Governor and
| Lieutenant Governor are on hand.
All soldiers and sailors have been
requested to wear their uniforms.
The small ballroom has been re-
served as ladies' cloak room with
women in attendance.
Automobiles will enter Chestnut
street from Second, to avoid confu-
sion. Passengers will dismount from
the automobiles under canopy
stretched from the entrance to the
curb.

Looks as Though Tech Would Lead
The Bunch in Basketball

After winning from the Allentown
High school squad in rather easy
fashion Friday night, the Technical
High school squad will travel to
York this Friday to play the team
representing the Orange and Blue, of
York. While the White Roses have
several veterans from last year in
Mclaughlin, Free and Yeagley, they
are handicapped by the absence of
Coach Bilheimer, who has gone over
to the York Collegiate Institute, q
private institution. The Workers had
used the Bilheimer system for sew
eral years, and a change will handi-
cap them at the start of this season.
The only other contest to be played
is Lebanon at Allentown.
While championship are never
won on paper, it again looks as
though Tech will repeat. To do so,
the Maroon will have to beat Read
ing and Lebanon. Certain it is that
Tech, Reading and Lebanon have su-
perior teams to York, Allentown and
Steelton. The first three teams look
evenly matched, as do the latter
three.

A better player in theleague will
be hard to find than Nyquist, the
English lad playing with Reading.
He is always good for in the neigh
borhood of twenty points. as he is 3
sure shot from the fifteen-foot mark
He will will keep Reading in the
running as long as he wears the Red
and Black of the Berks county
school.
Then there is the old reliable
Red" Miller, who plays guard, but
does the bulk of the offensive work
for the Red and Blue. Miller is one
of the best players in the league, and
can shoot them in from any angle.
Lebanon was runner-up last year,
and will be up at the top again. The
league seems to be in thriving con-
dition, and the fight for first place
between Tech. Lebanon and Reading
will be a hot one. Tech won last
year. and with the same &c Lm oucht
to repeat. 13ut one can never tell
until the season is over, and any slip
on the part of Tech will see Lebanon
and Reading forge to the front.

From Italian Battler

Benny" Leonard, worlds light
weight champion, meets Johnny
Dundee, the Italian prodigy, tonight
at Newark's sporting club in the
First Regiment Armory, for an eight
round bout, Leonard being top-heavy
favorite. Admirers of Leonard are
wagering that the titleholder will
score knockout, but there are plenty
of Dundee enthusiasts who are con-
fident the little Italian will stay the
limit.
There is only the remotest of pos
sibilities that Leonard will be in
danger, for Dundee has never been
known to display a knockout punch
Leonard has demonstrated his ability
as heavy hitter. 1t is problemati-
cal, however, if the champion can

ASKS UNCLE SAM TO
HELP ATHLETICS
A national movement for the
PRONUNCIATION and futherance of ath-
letic and recreational activities, the
director to be appointed by the gov
ernment, was launched in a resolu-
tion adopted at the annual meeting
of the National Baseball Federation
The resolution declares that the
war has demonstrated that physical
training and public recreation are es-
sential to the well being and morale
of the people and that baseball will
be one of the biggest substitutes for
the social features eliminated by the
recent prohibition enactment.
Outfielder Sam Rice, of the Wash
ington Americans. is said to be the
only major league player who has
served in both the Army and Navy
of the United States. Several years
ago, he served term in the Navy
and last spring he enlisted in the
Coast Artillery and has been over
seas. He broke into baseball as
pitcher, but was such q fine batsman
that Manager kGriffith shifted him to
right field, where he plays regu-
larly.
Harness-racing men are rating
1918 as a remarkable year for the
game. 1t is true that no trotting
records of the first Importance were
lowered, but an eastern harness
dopster points out that many of the
marks had close calls and that the
year was dotted with notable per-
formances. Among the noteworthy
feats of this kind was the winning
by Lu Princeton of the fastest race
ever trotted by stallion. Cresceus,
2.02A; The Harvester, 2.01; st. Frisco,
2.01 y; Peter Volo, ZOE, and Lee AK
worthy, 1.5S, had all trotted some
great races in other years, but the
white-faced son of San Francisco,
2.07A. eclipsed them when he reeled
off two heats in 2.02 and 2.02h in de-
feating st. Fricco at Hartford. In his
last race with St. Frisco at Atlanta,
Lu Princenton won in 2.02, 2.O4& and
2.02A, placing the fastest three-h heat
race ever trotted by stallion to the
credit of this wonderful campaigner.

YOST PROTESTS AGAINST
FOOTBALL KICKOFF


Fielding H. Yost, Michigan's famous
football mentor, strongly is opposed
to the proposed change in the rules
which would eliminate the KICKOFF at
the start of the second half "I am
not in favor of that change" he says
81 believe the kickoff should remain
as it is. What if one team does have
the ball on the one-foot line when the
half ends2 The other team might
have the ball in a similar position
when the game ends. In the end the
law of averages will even up that sort
of thing.
"The kickoff is a novel and an an
Client part of the game. 1t should re-
main a part of the game, just as the
kick for a goal after a touchdown
should remain. It's fair enough to
have the touchdown tie two field
goals, and it is only right that the
team scoring the touchdown should
have the chance to win by kicking
the goal"

THE BASES

According to Frank Bancroft, busi-
ness manager of the Reds and a base
ball man of forty years experience,
prohibition will materially help, not
hurt, the national game next sum-
mer. 81 have never been a prohibi-
tionist,' was the way Frank Bancroft
expressed himself, "and voted wet on
all occasions. Just the same, 1 can
see where thousands of people will
now change their daily routine and
go to the ball park. The suburban
garden and saloon have taken thou
sands of people away from baseball
and now well get them all back
again."
L should put the increase in base
ball attendance due to bone dry laws
ait from 10 to 10 per cent. next sum-
mer."
France, still bleeding from her
wounds. has shown the way by send
ing her challenge to Australia for
the Davis Cup matches in 1920. AS
surances have already been given that
America, England, Canada, Belgium
and Italy will follow suit, and this
means that the game is in for the
greatest period in its long and hon
orable history.
