A change from the usual Monday night home playing date of the Ca elnoa was made necessary because of prior rental arrangements for tne Siall.

and the contest with Hummels towa is to be an Inauguration Pay vent. While probably not in the class or Jater attractions listed to appear against the Casinos, the HummeUtown tossers are not to be taken too lightly. In six games they have played to date, they have won Ave. College Boys on Team Leading in prominence as an athlete In the lineup of the Eastern Dauphin county boys, will be Koss Swartz, a former Lebanon Valley College player, who was a twlrler on the staff or the Reading International Baseball League last summer.

FEARS OF FAMILY ARE SETAT REST Wilkes Barre 'Citizen Declares Tanlac Restored Him When Hope Had About Failed A recent conversation with Harry 3. Hammond, 33 Oakwood Lane, Wilkes Barre, disclosed the fact that he has at last overcome physical troubles from which his family and friends feared he would never recover. Mr.

Hammond's face plainly ehowed the unpleasant memory awakened as he told ot suffering a nervous breakdown, which, he said, "resulted in such a poor state of health that I was forced to give up my Job at the Post Office and become an invalid in my home. "I was as pale as a ghost," said Mr. Hammond, "and so weak I trembled all over, even to my voice. I never expected again to be able to earn a livelihood, but here I am In normal good health, able to do the hardest kind of work and not tire," When asked how he succeeded in getting back to such splendid health, his eyes lit up and he smiled broadly as he declared: "It's every bit due to this medicine called Tanlac. It has saved my life; my wife and myself are both sure ot that.

I began to mend at once. Soon my stomach and digestion got right and I felt my strength and energy returning. Since taking six bottles of Tanlac, I have gained ten pounds and am a new and different man. Tanlac has won my lifelong praise." Tanlac is for sale by all good druggists. Over 35 million bottles sold.

New York, Jan. 12. Harry Wills was hanging around the Madison Square Garden gym to day, receiving considerable attention from the onlookers and apparently not at all worried by Wlllard's presence in the city. Yet, it appears as though the dangerous Harry will be sidetracked in favor of the plethoric Jess. Harry Bays his hands are now in first class shape and that he will shortly enter the ring against some fighters of his own color.

He had nothing to say about Dempsoy and Willard. In his manner of talk, Harry Wills should stand as an example for all fighters for all time. He is modest and retiring, and black brown, rather though he be, his manners could be copied to advantage by a lot of white fighters we know. Jack Sharkey made a brave bid to come back, and his battle against Irish Johnny Curtain showed how earnestly he had worked. But he had gone too far down hill to return all the way to the top again.

There was a time when Jack seemed certain to climb to the bantam throne, but he did not have the good sense to keep himself in proper condition. The time came when Joe Lynch knocked him out in a crucial battle and Sharkey's sun set. It was understood that the winner of the Curtain Sharkey fight, last week, was to have the chance to LOCAL TOSSERS KEEPING BUSY Play Hershey Tonight; Close Week Wrth Steelton League Team Manager P. L. Grubb's Big Five, tri city league team, is having a strenuous week.

Following their game at Steelton last night, they go to Hershey to night to play the Olivets, whom they defeated in the opening game at Chestnut Street Auditorium, 39 to 35. To morrow night the Steelton aggregation will come to this city to battle the Big Five at Chestnut street hall in another league game. Steelton will be out in full force to encourage their representatives, and promise that they will match the crowd that is out to root for the Big Five combination. "Goldie" Huston has been hors de combat, due to an infected foot, It kept him out of several of the important engagements. He hopes to be able to play to morrow night in this city.

The local management will try out an innovation in putting on a preliminary game at 7.30 between the Tech Reserves and Catholic High School. The Tech second team schedule has been filled and the only way for the two teams to decide supremacy was to have them play a preliminary game on Saturday night. At 8.15 the regular game will be played. The Pipers, under the direction of Marion Sourbeer, will play, for the dance following the two cage games. The largest crowd of the season, it is predicted, will flock to Chestnut Street Auditorium, to root for their favorite quintet.

OPPOSE PLANS FOR TWO DEPARTMENTS Cliambersbarg, Jan. 12. The Franklin County Sportsmen's Association has voted against the proposal for consolidation of the game and fisheries departments of the State, because, members said. It was not believed that a competent head, one who would administer both departments impartially, could be secured. The association also voted against pooling of all State funds, stating that as sportsmen they paid extra fees for hunter's and fishermen's licenses and money thus paid should accrue to the benefit ot those departments in which sportsmen are particularly interested.

A change in the nonresident hunter's fee from $10 to $25 was favored, OLD TIME FOX HUNT Huntingdon, Jan. 12. Members of the Cold Springs Huntingdon Club enjoyed a fox hunt in the neighborhood of Warrior Ridge yesterday morning when two foxes were chased by their dogs. Harry W. Wagner succeeded in killing one and George Holland shot the second animal.

Both were gray foxes and very large with a fine quality of fur. 12, 1923 Dell Phono 388 Valentines A Window Full Mechanical Fancy A most varied assortment of Valentine s.

M. C. OF THE SPORT WORLD meet Joe Lynch for the bantam' weight championship. If that was true, Irish Johnny gets the coveted chance, and there are a lot of wise ones who. believe that he has more than an even chance ot sending the champion back to Daddy Lynch's truck business.

Keep your eye on Steven Latzo, a welter, who originally dialled from Hazle ton, Pa. When the writer first saw him he was one of Jack Dempsey's stablemates at Freddj Welch's farm, at Summit, N. J. Up there he attracted the attention of shrewd judges, who were camping upon Dempsey's trail, some day ne will battle with MlcSey Walker for the welter crown, and it will be a real fight. With Lew Tendler growing into the welter class, and Sailor Friedman, another good lightweight working up to that same division, the outlook is for a busy year among the welters.

The cUbs is steadily taking on importance. They made a great ballyhoo over the fact that the winner of the Brennan Johnson battle would next meet Luis Firpo and then Dempsey, whereas managers of Johnson and Brennan had agreed that the winner should go against Billy Miske, in Boston, next week. Miske has been a curious career ot late. Just when everybody thought he was back strong, he pulled a couple of punk bouts and now Is about back where he was after the second Oempsey fight. HARRISBURG SHOE HAS EASY TIME IN INDUSTRIAL GAME Harrisburg Shoe and Harrisburg Silk are still racing for the lead in the Industrial Basketball League as a result of their victories last night.

The former won from Dives, Pomeroy and Stewart 47 17 and the latter from Moorhead 27 23. Moorhead gave Harrisburg Silk a scare when it passed it In the early part of the second half after being seven points behind at the! end of the first period. Simonic and Melchoir shot five field goals in rapid succession and only the scoring of two field goals by Saul in the last minutes of play saved the day for his team. Harrisburg Shoe found Dives, Pomeroy and Stewart a hard nut to crack in the first half of their game which ended 18 to 11 in the former's favor. Both teams had played a clean, fast passing game.

In the second half however, the team work became more ragged and there was considerable fouling. The Shoemen paid less attention to passing and more to scoring points and ran up 29 points in this half. Graeff made most of the points for his team by his two field goals and his fine foul shooting.

Dr. Cadman, of Brooklyn, Tells Huge Congregation How Restlessness and Distrust May Be Banished Universal peace can only come through the faithful Christian congregations of the world.

Thts was the declaration of the Rev. Dr. S. Parkes Cadman, pastor of Central Congregational Church, Brooklyn, addressing an audience that filled every available inch of room in Grace Methodist Church last night. It was the first of a series of eight sermons by world famous preachers to be delivered Thursday evenings in the1 churches of the city, under the ausplcea ot the Central Y.

M. C. And scores of persons were turned away for lack of room. "There will be no peace at Ver allies, the Near East or the Valley of the Rhine until the nations of the world have rectified their hearts, as well as their declared Dr. Cadman, whose sermon was based ort peace as it affects the individual and the world at large.

Politics a Failure "Politics cannot bring peace to the world. If you are depending on politics for universal peace God help you. Rosea will bloom at the North Pole before politics will bring peace to the world. "Peace can only prevail through the faithful congregations of the world. And, the sad part of it Is, that 60 per cent, of the Protestant people of the world have no respect of loyalty." In opening hla sermon, Dr.

Cadman compared love with peace: "Love Is not the greatest thing In this world," he "for it breaks too many hearts. There are many men and women here whose hair iias turned gray because they have loved, not wisely, but too well. Not love, tut peace, ts the teal object of evCV human heart." This peasY he explained, is the peace of Christ. He touched on the divinity of Christ, and declared it was the humanness of Christ that made Him the more divine. He urged study of the fourteenth chapter of St.

John, "This," he said, "and the Twenty third Psalm la on the lips of more dying persons than any other thought. For very few people die like footi, although many live like fools." Outlining Ms meaning ot peart, the Doctor explained it did not mean peace obtained by some churchgoer! by sleeping la their pew not CHURCH SPORTS MUST RE CLEAN Speakers Land Son Lutheran Player at Banquet; Splendid Program Presented "Our church stands for clean life and clean sports, and whatever our baseball team does will always re fleet on Zion," was the keynote ot the Rev. Dr. a. winneld Herman's speech delivered last night ait the first annual banquet in honor of the Zion Lutheran Sunday School team, which won the league pennant last year by a splendid list of victories, The banquet, which was given by the members ot the men's Bible class, who backed the team to the limit during the past summer, was attended by over 150 persons.

T. J. Ernest, chairman of the committee, presided during the evening and introduced the different speakers. Wellington G. Jones gave a few remarks and mentioned about the athlete who plays the game fairly.

In closing, Mr. Jones recited the following bit of verse, "When the Great Creator comes to write your name, He will not ask you how you lost or how you won, but how you played the game." tr. e. Hobb, who handled the publicity work of the team, added a few remarks and mentioned about the rivalry of the Zion nine during tne 1822 baseball season and closed by saying that all of the church players played the game to the best of their ability, and that his heart and his prayers were always with the team. Other features on the urogram were: Opening song, "America;" prayer, George Lebo; saxophone soio, Jioya uoyer; xylophone solo, Henjamin Miller; tenor solo, John Fisher; Darktown sketch, "Asthma and Eczema." These artists won much applause.

They are better known as C. E. Fleagle and E. E. Horner.

CENTRAL HIGH HAS FASTGIRLS TEAM That Central High School is going to have a fast cage team this sea son was revealed last night, when the popular Forster street school quintet trimmed the Triangles, ot the Camp Cuitin Community League, by a score of 23 to 3. The Triangles can consider themselves lucky in landing a point, for the Central team had remarkable team work for the initial game. As was expected, Anna Wilsbaueh and Helen Graeff were the big stars ror tne winners.

The school also had five cheer leaders on the job in the persons of Marcia Sar ah Hawthorne, Janet FIgner, Mar jorle Russ and Virginia Rohman.

Peace, he said, means intellectual Intellectual tained by following t7uth, he Speaking on peace for the soul, Dr. Cadman declared it could only come through a vision of God. "I care not what imth vnn by." he said, "but if you" see vision uuu yuu can ooiain peace of the soul. All that is necessary is not to depend on second rate contacts 4t must be direct contact with God."

Built around the merry, miniature, musical comedy "Dolly," the show is without a doubt on par with anything that has played in Harrisburg for sometime. The comedy, presented by Milton Aborn with lyrics by Jack Arnold deals with the life in an artist's studio and the songs and dancing numbers Introduced make the evening worth while. Two girls and three men are in the cast and Dolly Lewis as the model and Sol Solomon, the uncle from Glenn Falls, keep the audience In an uproar by their clever wit. The scenic effects in the act are also well worked out! Ruth Gordon and Budd Carlell, in "Varieties of the West" put on an act that Is different from the ordi nary run of Keith vaudeville.

Their rope and whip stunts were above the average. Harold Kennedy in "A Lost Art," presents a burlesque act with the usual drunken scene. His new jokes Introduced at different times made the act a lively fifteen minute entertainment. Italians have played here before but their acts had nothing on Lyons and Yosco, who after giving some splendid selections on a harp and base viola, took the audience by storm by their vocal duets. They were applauded several times for encores.

They could sing in a real way and that is half of any act. The closing feature ot the show In which the Gautier brothers pre sented "The Animated Toyshop," tops anything of its kind that has played here. Four well trained ponies and three dogs kept the pa trons in their seats until the last act was over. The animals went through every stunt like clock work and the Gautiers can feel proud or tneir little circus which came to an end by a merry go round feature. A comedy picture and the Majestic orchestra selections are as usual big features on the program.

"MOTHER STERNAL" SHOWS A NEW MOVIE TENDENCY The readjustment which is taking place in the motion picture business and in motion picture Ideals is nowhere better typified than in the drama, "Mother Eternal," by Ivan Abramson, which closes at the Victoria Theater to morrow. While producers of the silent play are debating about making a change in the style of their art, Abramson has dipped his pen deep into the realities of life and set forth a story of the aching hearts of mothers the world over, who have borne the pain and the anguish and carried the burdens while their children gained a firmer foothold in life than those who preceded them, then And themselves only In the way and a burden to those who have burdened them. Far away and beyond anything yet seen Is this picture, the title role ot which is played by Vivian Martin, who apparently for the first time in her life has sounded the dramatic depths of her soul. There are moments in "Mother Eternal" which carry one back to childhood.

The little scenes are so delicately drawn, so carefully portrayed, that one actually feels the presence of the participants and shares their Joys and sorrows. The story exemplifies the evil that must arise from a mother's coddling her young and giving in to a child's every whim. A perfectly balanced cast plays the various roles in "Mother Eternal." Added test is given to the Victoria presentation by the fact that Baby Ruth Sullivan, who appears in this picture, is in Harrisburg this week with the production, and is personally' meeting Victoria houses. Besides Miss Vivian Martin, who plays the title role, the east Includes Thurston Hall, Earl Metcalfe, Jack Sherrill, Vlvlenne Osborne, Pearl Shephard and J. W.

Johnston. As another special feature Mrs. John Krohn is singing the "Mother Eternal" songs at each performance. "BROTHERS fSTDER THE SKI IV, GREAT COMEDY OF MARRIAGE, NOW AT COLONIAL THEATER A diverting comedyof modern marriage is the Ooldwyn photoplay, adapted from a magasine story by Peter B. Kyne, "Brothers Under the Skin," which Is the attraction at the Colonial Theater.

Its thesis, that all men are brothers, when it becomes a question of marriage and a man's relations with his wife, no matter what their economic or social station in life, is one that permitted Mr. Kyne to weave a story about two New York households, one In a poverty stricken flat, the other in a gilded Riverside Drive apartment house, that lent Itself to veracious comedy treatment. All the next week the feature attraction will be Norma Talmadge in her latest feature, "The Eternal Flame," her latest and greatest feature success.

ASTRONOMY A LA MINSTREL For years on end people have boon speculating on what lies out beyond the horlson, far oft across the inter stellar spaces. Astronomy abounds In wonders, and marvelous discoveries have been made with the help of the powerful lenses, but there is till so much to learn and wonder about The moon has been studied, and many interesting things are known about it, with a lot more that remain purely conjectural. Mars also claims a lot of interested attention, and now an astronomer has announced some startling discoveries concerning the planet Venus. During the past year several bold spirits have considered plans for possible communication with Mars, and one hardy adventurer has gone so far as to propose making an attempt at reaching the distant orb through the medium ot a gigantic rocket.

Sounds ridiculous, perhaps, but bo did the first talk about electricity In old Ben Franklin's day, and until recently wireless telegraphy and the current radio rage were also pooh poohed as idle talk. Who knows? Perhaps there will be communication with other planets in the future, and perhaps not so far oft In the future at that. Be that as It may, the Al. O. Field Minstrels accomplish the unbelievable this season along that very line.

For those interested in astronomy and the possible journey to Mars, it will be well to see how Bert Swor and Johnny Healy accomplish the perilous trip through the ether, arriving safely on the shores of Mars and returning in due time to Mother Earth. One of the most interesting and, withal, comic scenes in the current show is that built about the trip to Mars. Modern science has been Impressed Into service by the author for the current production to make minstrel audiences laugh, and it has served marvelouBly well. The Al. G.

Field Minstrels come to the Orpheum and will be seen Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. "LILIOM" "Liliom" is coming to the Orpheum to night and to morrow, the finest gift that the Theater Guild could offer to Harrisburg theater goers, with Eva Le Galllenne featured in the role of Julie. "Liliom," by Franz Molnar, Is an extraordinary mixture of realism and fantasy, skillfully blended, so that drama, tragedy and com dv. followinar each other in awift succession, bring tears, laughter, smiles and sighs, no play oi recent years has so great a variety of intensely human and finely sketched (huactera. Julie, the little Hun garian servant girl, played by Miss Le Galllenne, has placed her in the front rank of the younger generation of who in the light of her love for Liliom, the roustabout Budapest merry go round bouncer, reveals tne trutn oi me love oi woman.

Grooincr around In poverty and Ignorance, but loving and striving toward tne iignt, meir lives caugm in the maelstrom and influenced by the selfish, passionate mart am ot tne merry go round, the rascally sharp tongued Sparrow, a wastral and good for nothing: Julie's scolding aunt, the prattling, shallow pated Marie, whose sweetheart wears a porter's cap, clinging together because they eannot express themselves, Julie and Liliom are characters that are universal, and perhaps the most human ever seen on the stage. Then, too, there is the fantasy which has aroused so much discussion the judgment in the other world the figment or Liliom imagination of what heaven misrht be Rather a pathetic conception his, the result ot ignorance ana abuse, and as humanly beautiful as Julie's ex filanatlon to her daughter that real ove softens all blows and forgives all. The local engagement is one of promise, and "Liliom" Is something no one can arrora to miss, tor it Is one of the "big" things of the theater.
