Baseball Tournament

Tke All-American Amateur Base
Ball Tournament, held at Harris
burg, Pa, Sept 5, 6, z, and 8, and
sponsored by Glenn L. Martin, of
Baltimore, proved to be one the best
arranged and most closely contested
tournaments held in years.
The Rising Sun club and guests
left here early Wednesday morning,
Sept. 5, returning Friday evening,
Sept. z. The team, although defeated
twice in three games played, made a
very good showing, all scores being
close and the winner always in doubt
until the last man was out. The
scores follow:
Wednesday, Sept. 5, Cameo Furni-
ture Co., of Washington, D. c., 6;
Rising Sun 8.
Thursday, Sept. 6, Rising Sun 5;
New Bedford, Mass, A.
Friday, Sept. z, Harrisburg, s;
Rising Sun 4.
The Washington club, which de-
feated Rising Sun in the first game
went to the semi-finals, when the
Martin Bombers, of Baltimore, hand
ed them 20 defeat.
The Harrisburg club and the
Bombers play in the final games to
decide the champions.
The Martin Bombers of Baltimore
are the All-American Amateur base
ball champions. A home run over the
right field wall Monday night by
Frank Gibson gave the Bombers a
10 victory over Ensminger Studio,
of Harrisburg, in the final game of a
tournament.
The Rising Sun club drew Isle
Field for all their games, it being the
home of the former Harrisburg Tri-
State League. Another note of inter-
est is that after Mr.. Glenn L. Martin
witnessed the opening game between
Rising Sun and the Washington club,
he attended the other games played
by Rising Sun, and arranged with
the Susquehanna League President,
Mr.. Deibert, of Elkton, to send his
Bombers to Elkton on Sunday, Sept.
16, to meet an all-star team from
this League. This game will end the
season for both clubs.
The all-star team will be compos-
ed of players from Rising Sun, Elk
ton, Chesapeake City and North East.
The Rising Sun team has been in
vited by Mgr. Bullock of the Havre
de Grace club, to play five-game
series with kis team, but the invita-
tion has been declined.

Official Comments Garbage Action

Commentator of the city's efforts to improve garbage col- lection and sanitation were re- ceived in a letter this week by Dr A. Homes Johnson, city health officer.
 The letter, from Richard s Green, Director, Division of Public Health Engineering, at Juneau said:
 With reference to the matter of your local ordinances concern ing compulsory garbage collec- ton and compulsory connection to the sewer system, ordinances on both these matters are very worthwhile and in fact necessary If Kodiak is to improve two of it's chief sanitation difficulties
 Ut seems to me if the 2 or dinances have been drawn care fully, there should be no trouble in enforcing them.
 "As you know, this office com pleted a careful rat infestation survey of Kodiak last summer at which tune we found adequate justification for city control and compulsory collection of gar bage."
 The compulsory $5 connection fee for the sewer system and se- wer charge of 50 cents monthly has met with some opposition among city users, as bas the new garbage system by which the city handles the garbage and handles it's collection by con- tract
 It is reported that city officials are considering the fling of friendly suits as test cases to validate the power of the ordin- ances where enforcement of the ordinances has met opposition.

ing Is years OF a life sentence, VIII
liam Brown, 81, former resident Of
BEDFORD, was freed from the Wash
tenaw County Jail by order OF Cir
cult Judge James Breakey. Judge
Breakey based his atcion on opin.
ions that legal processes used to
convict Brown we're irregular and
hasty" He "quashed" the informa.
ton that convicted Brown.
Browns plea for freedom was
approved by County Prosecutor
Prosecutor John Rae, after which
he was moved from Marquette to
the county jail in Ann Arbor.
Brown was sentenced in 1880 by
Circuit Judge George Sample for
armed robbery. He was first con-
fined to Jackson Prison, but was
moved to Marquette following the
finding OF saws in his Jackson
Prison cell.
According TO Rae, It will be i'm.
possible to try Brown again be-
cause the only living witnesses do
not remember sufficient number OF
facts to prosecute.
