(Copyright, 1924, by the Harrisburg Telegraph) QUESTION Has Mike McTigue any 'striking record as a knockout? ANSWER Sure he has'.

He has scored knockouts in nearly 50 cent, of his 'bouts. QUESTION In the inning there is a runner on third and the team at bat is ahead by the score of 4 to 1. The pitcher wheeled to throw to third, but he saw the third baseman was off the base and did not complete the throw. The urn pire declared a balk sending the runner to home plate and the bat ter to first. Was that right? ANSWER Umpire was wrong in both decisions.

The pitcher did not make a balk as he is not competed to complete the throw to third and the batter never is sent to first on a balk. There is nothing in a balk which fools or deceives the batter as he is looking at the pitcher all of the time if he is playing good ball.

Coach Knute Rockne, of the undefeated Notre Dame football eleven left for home with his star quarterback, Harry Stuhldreher, after a two day business visit here during which it is understood Stuhldreher was approached by representatives of two eastern schools with offers of coaching positions next season. Stuhldreher said that he had not signed to coach any team and was not likely to do so soon, although he intimated that he eventually would accept one of several offers he already has received. He did not reveal the source 'of these offers, however. Army and Penn State will be Notre Dame's two eastern opponents next year, Coach Rockne said, adding that the remainder of his schedule was yet in a formative stage. "We expect to lose two or three games next season because of the entire first eleven, seven men from the second and five from the third, Rockne said, but that will do the team and the student, body good." "A few losses test thesoul," he reflected, "except when you lose too often then you lose, your Job."

FOENTE IS GONE; WHO WILL IT BE? Charley Weinert Is Not a Likely Foe For Dempsey By FAIR PLAY By Special Leased Wire to Harrisburg Telegraph. Copyright. New York, Dec 4. It shows how optimistic is the human soul when it is stated mat several Eastern promoters have been burning the wires trying to find out where Fuente. the Mexican tamale, has gone.

He is wanted here for bouts. Why, no one can say, unless the promoters believe that a lot of the fans do not read the papers. Nothing so terrible as the attempt to build up the Greaser at" the expense of Fred Fulton has been seen in the West, they say, and the two fighters were lucky they did i not get knocked out for good and all by irato two gun men. Anyway, no one will get hold of Fuente, the moat reliable reports say sklnner'heavy has beat it to the cactus of his beloved country, Who can "be built up for Dempsey? Charley Weinert occupies the center of the ring just "now. But while Weinert is clever enough to make trouble for most of the good ones, no one will ever take him seriously as an opponent for th champion.

Firpo seems lost in the shuffle and the publicity campaign in favor of Rojnero Rojas is creaking like a stone truck. McTicne Walker Match It is difficult to get to the bottom of the coming McTigue Waker match in Newark, January 7.

What is the answer? The answer is that there will be no knockouts, McTizue is not Quite a fool. Mean while Mickev will be fierhtiner Jock Malone in Milwaukee next Monday and McTigue will get on edge wttii a bout with young Marullo in New Orleans the middle or the montn, TEACH BASEBALL IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS; JENNINGS PLAN Scranton, Dec.

The.aew equipment gives Lackawanna a coke making capacity of 100,000. tons a month, which is near the maximum required to operate its blast furnaces at capacity. ment'at Lackawanna will represent a large annual saving to the company, 1 not only in production and efficiency, Ibut also in the removal of purchasing problems. "The' new ovens will make coke in 12 hours as against 18 to 20 hours required in the process formerly used.

They give the company the "advantage of reclaiming all the by products of coke, including fertiliser, gas, lubricating oils, tar and pigment used in the manufacture of coaf tar dyes. 'i addition of the new coke evens' marks an important step in the modernization and expansion of the Bethlehem Steel Company's Lackawanna plant. "There has also been completed at the Lackawanna plant the rehabilitation of the plate, blooming and roughing mills. These mills have' been completely rebuilt and equipped throughout 'with electric drive, replacing the older steam and hydraulic power. Important Changes "One of the most important changes In the Lackawanna plant has been a complete modernizing of the power and heating equipment.

Boiler plants, steam engines, hydraulic and com Pfejsqr machinery have been largely replaced with electric power, and waste gases from the new coke ovens andnblast furnaces used for fuel in place of coal. 'Thevnew structural mills at Lackawanna will probably be completed in the" latter part of 1925. 'fAt Bethlehem's Cambria plant in Johnstown, the Gautier bar departs ment is being completely remodeled." A new blooming, billet and sheet bar mill has been also completed at Cambria and is now in operation. New Tin Plate Plant "The new tin plate plant at the Sparrows Point plant will be finished early in 1925. JThia plant will include 12 mills and will add 50 per cent, to Sparrows Point's present tin plate capacity.

The rail mill at Sparrows Point has been rebuilt, electrified and Is now in operation. "Bethlehem's plans for the improvements at the various plants made. the time of purchasing the Lackawanna, Midvale and Cambria properties, called for the expenditure Df about $25,000,000. This money was taken from surplus. The program was later expanded and with $30,000,000 of bonds sold to provide additional funds, it is Jikely that'about $60,000, I00 altogether will have been spent before the present work is completed, at that time.

Bethlehem will have an CilllllJ' UiUUl VI "iaillD. "The. effect of. the improvements in the' is already noticeable "ta manufacturing costs, and as a result, In earnings. Bethlehem is now oper" tingat about 70 per cent, of its full tapacity." MARTINSBURG TO LOSE TEN PLAYERS Martinsburg, W.

COMPROMISE SOUGHT TO END COAL STRIKE; UNION TAKES ACTION Scranton, Dec. 4.

Both sides to the controversy growing out of the strike of 12,000 miners of the Pennsylvania Coal Company in defiance of t'he orders of union officials, marked time to day awaiting the arrival of Rinaldo Cappellinl, president of District No. 1, United Mine Workers of America, from Texas, where he was in conference with International President John L. Lewis. Mr. Cappellinl is expected In time to attend a special meeting of the general grievance committee of the strikers in Plttston this afternoon.

Some union leaders expressed the belief Mr. Cappellini would be able to bring about an adjustment of the difficulty, which yesterday resulted in an order from President Lewis revoking the charters of ten local unions in the Pittston district because of the failure of their members to obey his instructions to return to work. There is some question as to whether the revocation notices sent to the strikers were valid, in view of the fact that they did not bear the signatures of the district president or his acting agent. Vice President George Isaacs, acting president in the absence or cappellinl, refused to sign the notices on the ground that the district execu tive board did not grant tnim me proper authority. The revocation has Drougnt about a peculiar situation.

President Cap pellini and several other district or ficers are members of the locals whose charters were canceled. Under the order these officers auto matically would become separated from 'the United Mine Workers, Rut according to the international union law. tnev may noia onice uuui wieir successors are elected.

White and Edward Eisner production of "Faust" is the musical setting which embellishes the play.

The production, which will he seen at the Orpheum Theater for three performances, starting to morrdw night, offers the most appealing portions of both forms of high class entertainment. The drama is staged with an ex cellent cast and with a wealth of scenic and electrical effects that charm the sense of the beautiful in stage pictures, and, running through the action of the play, is the soul inspiring music, written by Gounod Meyerbeer, Bolto and others or the world's master composers.

This combination of music and drama, cannot fail to meet with the enthusiastio approval of all to whom thebest in art has an appeal. MAJESTIC There is always room at the top.
