gathered in the high school gym nasium. A decade ago when York was battling for the crown it was the usual thing for 3000 fans to scramble for a seat out at the old skat ins rink. If York continues its present pennant drive there will be a repetition of tne crowds out to see the Orange and Blue play. Last season Lebanon High School set a precedent by winning the league crown for the first time.

But before winning the league championship, the White Roses will have to eliminate the Steam Rollers of Steelton high schooL Steelton's first big test should come on the twenty ninth of this month when Nels Hoffman's team goes to York for a decisive bat tie with the Codorus Indians. Harrisburg's two entries, John Harris and William Penn, seem to be out of the race again this year. They are the only two teams in the league that have not won a contest, and when John Harris and William Penn clash January 30 on the Madrid floor it will be a big moment for one of the teams, as one team is bound to win on that occasion. The best that can be said for the two local high schools is that the boys have been battling. If they battle long enough they are bound to crash through with a victory now and then.

But with the season just starting, both of the Harrisburg entries are out of the running for another season, The William Penn high school basket ball quintet went down lighting Saturday night at the Madrid by a score of 30 a 25.

The California star, world's professional champion, entered the institution suffering with a mild case of influenza and tonsil itis after playing a listless, losing straight set match against Perry Saturday night. Their scheduled match at Detroit tomorrow night was called off but Vines' physician said he probably would be up and about Thursday, in time to resume the tour at Pittsburgh the following night. The physician said vines was feeling "much better." His temperature was near normal in contrast to the 100.2 reported when he entered the hospital. No visitors were permitted, however, and telephone communications were severed to assure him complete rest for several days. Illness Shows The Californian played witn a fever of 101 in Perry's professional debut at Madison Square Garden last Wednesday night.

In Cleveland two nights later the match was cut to two out of three sets instead of three out of five because of Vines' condition.

By E. ROLAND HARREVIAN Chairman, Trotting Horse Club of America Totals New York, Jan. 11 With as much cause for rejoicing as the American light harness turf has in looking backward at 1936, its best season in 10 years, the eyes of the trotting sport are turned confidently ahead to 1937 which bears every promise of ex ceeding the past season in num ber of race meetings, value of purses, development of amateur matinee driving clubs for both men and women, and new, richer stakes for all aged horses. Registering gains of 25 per cent, in purses throughout the country, an expanded grand circuit schedule over 1935, increases in at tendance at race meetings, and greater personal participation in the sport by amateurs than ever before, the last season has become history. The New Year, offering new stakes worth more than $50,000 for all aged trotters and pacers, with handicaps provided for the fastest performers; a stronger grand circuit schedule promising nearly continuous summer racing along the eastern seaboard, as veil as through the midwest, and probably later to California, causes all of us deep dyed trotting horsemen to regard 1937 through rose tinted glasses.

The Trotting Horse Club is leading the way toward richer, more diversified stakes for all classes of harness horses. Realizing that the two and three year old colt stakes already provided sufficient competition. The sport is now being offered events for older horses with particularly fast records, and handicapping the swiftest of these so that every owner, with his typically "game" mount, has a chance to win. The new blood streaming into the trotting sport was already evidenced at the old glory sale held Thanksgiving week. This annual auction of the blue blooded yearlings bred on the country's famous standardbred nurseries saw total prices swing $48,925 above the 1935 figures.

The purchase by Lawrence B. Sheppard, master of Hanover Shoe Farms, Hanover; of Mr. McElwyn, noted sire, gave undisputed evidence of the confidence manifest in the sport from the breeding angle as well as the purely competitive phases of the turf. But what was even more inter esting at the Old Glory was the selection and purchase of pros pective champions by newcomers to the sport. That such new interest in an old sport, which affords more personal participation in all angles of it than most major sports offer, is practical and lasting, is shown in the creation of a new mile track, exclusively for trotters, which Dunbar Bostwick, well known sportsman of Old Westbury, L.

I. has had built at Aiken, S. C. An indication of the modern trend toward buying a horse or two, helping a professional trainer get the colts shape, and then racing them in person, either in ciasnes witn proiessionai reins men or, as is more often the case, against other men and women who wish to enjoy their sports firsthand. The last season saw speed marks, long and jealously guarded, fall before the onslaught of such champions as Rosalind, Lrreyhound, Twilight Song, Dusty Hanover.

Little Pat. Ed Lasater, Edna Brewer, Calumet Evelyn and Margaret Castleton. While all of these and other leaders in their classes will be back in 1937 to better their own marks, a new school of talent is rapidly rounding into shape to challenge the old campaigners. The New Year, filling a long sought and now realized need, will provide ample facilities for racing trotters and pacers from one end oi the country to the other. With more days of racing, richer purses, greater variety of stakes, and amateurs building up formidable schedules among themselves, 1936 will have to look sharp to its laurels with 1937 stepping out for top honors.

Hershey Bears came through with a 5 to 4 victory over the Orioles It was an Eastern League amateur battle.

Hershey played a wonderful game. The first period was a rough house af fair and it was near the closing time when the Bears scored. Morris made the talley. In each of the last two periods Baltimore scored twice. This defeat broke Baltimore's string of four victories, including the tie game at Hershey Saturday night, rolled in three goals within the first seven minutes of the second period.

Gabroski, Mancuso and Kelly counted the three points, Baltimore scored on a pair of goals by Buckles. Curne registered Hershey's winning margin early in the third stanza, unassisted. Steele and Kawalski got Baltimore's two Kawalski, Steele, Getting off to a good start the New Cumberland Tigers will at tempt to break the four way tie for first place in the West Shore High School Basket Ball League which they share with Lemoyne, Camp Hill and Enola. The Tigers have two league games scheduled for this week, whereas the other clubs have but one. Four league contests are carded for this week, and two outside games are listed for the cross river schools.

Tomorrow night New Cumberland will play at Marysville, while Lemoyne will go to Highspire for return games, where the varsity and junior varsity are slated to play. On Thursday, Mechanicsburg will play at Camp Hill. Friday will find Enola playing at Duncannon, Camp Hill at Lemoyne and Boiling Springs at New Cumberland. Newville has no league games scheduled for this week. According to the results of opening games last week fans would gather that the bulk of ine league strength again is con centrated at Lemoyne, Camp Hill, iNew L.umoerland and Enola.

This However, may prove ail wrong as Duncannon has a team which will give its opponents plenty to worry about. The other teams also wiu win their share of games soon as tney round into form. At present, of the four teams perched at the top, New Cumberland and Lemoyne appear to have the smoothest working quintets, and from current indications, they will have to be beaten out for nie line. uacn iwidie Johnson is still experimenting with his Enola line up, uasi weeK hi i Harren to forward, and sent Don a tan iaa whn nlsv ward for two seasons, to guard.

faJZr ua3'4. ATLANTIC CiTY au. mat chudvm Fair Play Please By JACK MILEY Samuel Untermyer, that old orchid grower and the flower of the American bar, is leading an anti Nazi boycott against the Braddock Schmeling bout. The venerable Samivel, dallying with his dahlias and sending out his own press notices from his lush Westchester acres, feels he can muster enough Jews and I believe he will to wreck the show. The only man I know who wears an orchid in his lapel Sammy plucks 'em each morning in his own greenhouse looks six, two and even to cause plenty of trouble.

There is no doubt in my mind that Untermyer Co. will put the quietus on the June joust. It was no bargain to start with. It will be even less when Sammy and his stooges get through. The boycott is a vicious weapon.

If anybody tried to use it against one of Untermyer's clients, Sam would holler murder and go all the way to the Supreme Court. He's that kind of a guy. But so long as he does it himself, that is different. Now, I hold no brief for Schmeling. I never liked the man.

I never thought he was a great fighter, his upset of Louis notwithstanding. He's a good second rater, yes. But not a topnotcher in the sense that Dempsey or Tun ney were. I think the Dutchman had more luck than ability. He was excellently handled, too.

You'll have to talk long and loud to sell me on the idea that the Heinie has class. It wouldn't break my heart if the German never took another buck out of this country. He has done well enough, as it is. We don't owe the Horst Wessel muzzier anything. In fact, I know a man in this town Schmeling is into for $30,000 and I'd hate to be hanging by my thumbs until he gets it.

I also know a fellow down in the Federal Building who'd like to collect some income taxes from Schmeling for his boss, Mr. Whiskers. And I wouldn't care to hold my breath until that rap is squared, either. All in all, the German is marked lousy in my book and in the volumes of several other folk, also. But I disapprove of Mr.

Untermyer's boycott on three grounds. (1) The thing is not sporting. Regardless of my personal opinion of Schmeling, I must admit he is entitled, by virtue of his victory over Louis, to an immediate crack at Jim Braddock's title. No fair minded citizen, regardless of his personal convictions, can get around that. Max beat Joe.

The winner was promised a shot at Jim. Those are the hard, cold, irrefutable facts. You can't deny 'em (2) The real sufferers in the Untermyer boycott won't be Schmeling as much as several other guys who did noth ing to deserve such treatment. Three of them are Sam chosen people. These are Joe Jacobs, Schmeling's mana ger; Joe Gould, Braddock's manager, and Mike Jacobs (no km to Yussel) who is a co promoter of the proposed migraine.

Now, I happen to know that neither Braddock, Gould nor Joe Jacobs are what you'd call in the chips. I understand Mike has a small annuity that keeps him out of the breadlines. Braddock has been waiting nearly two years to defend his title for some real money. Joe Gould has been stringing along with him. Joe Jacobs has been outbox ing the sheriff, hoping that he would make a good, substantial touch, as well.

Mike Jacobs, who has more megs than enough, could still use that thirty grand that Schmeling slugged him for the last time he visited our hospitable shores. Deutschland uber Alles, eh Michael? haw! (3) For every dollar Schmeling takes back, to Germany and he'll tote home every one he can get four or five simoleons will stay here. Braddock will get his grub stake: Joe Gould will make the last payment on Betty's baby grand; Joe Jacobs can take nine new suites in the Park Central and have a few bob left over for mink coats and bubble water, and Mike Jacobs can purchase a couple of extra ballet dancing costumes for that organ grinder's monkey he has down in Red Bank. This, looks like an easy in for Louis. If the Braddock Schmeling thing is scrambled, Joe will find himself tossed into the pit with Braddock, which is okay with Jim.

He thinks he can lick 'em both and after that Baer brawl I'm pulling my punches when picking against the champ. I used to think he was lucky as he stumbled his way upstairs. Now I'm beginning to wonder if we haven't under rated this dull, plodding fellow? A Braddock Schmeling fite outdoors in June figured to do around $200,000, tops. Now, with the boy cott, they can hold it in a phone booth. It is tough luck for Braddock, Gould and the Jacobs boys.

Schmeling has a million, unless Hitler has taken it away from him. The others have hopes. There was a Jewish boycott on the Schmeling Louis fight that slashed the slithereens out of the gate. This isn't something you can augh off lightly. But I hope the thing adjusts itself, be cause I hate to see four right guys hurt just to give the works to one man.
