The Luttringer Stock Company announce hvo splendid attractions for production ut tlie Park Theatre during the week of July 3 to July 8. The first half of the week will be presented "The Bandit Man" written by DeWitt Newing, author of "Love of Su Shong," the play that made such a tremendous hit at the Park Theatre last season. "The Bandit Man" is a play with ninety percent of its characters Mexican, the setting is entirely Mexican and the story occurs during one of the revolutions that happens to be any time in Mexico. The author'has in-jected more genuine comedy into it than can be found in half a dozen plays masquerading as comedies. There are thrills, tears and laughter cleverly intermingled and there are as many excruciatingly funny situations as there are exciting moments. The story tells of a young American min-ing engineer who goes to Mexico to develop a silver mine that has been turned over to him in trust for a proud and tempermental Spanish girl—so what more natural than that he should fall in love with the dark-eyed Senorita. He does and for four acts it leads him through a series of scenes and situations that thrill an audience one moment and rocks them with laughter the next. Of course he wins but not until he has out-bandited a notorious bandit and made love in the latest and most approved American style. Those who have been privileged to see a production of the play seem to agree that Mr. Newing has scored another ten strike with his "The Bandit Man" and that it will prove to be one of the most entertaining plays produced in stock during the past several years. The comdey role played by John Rowe is said to be one of the funniest comedy parts ever written. The latter half of the week will be presented "The Two Ojphans," which for more than two generations has charmed the theatre goers in all lands and climes. "The Two Orphans," has been translated into all known languages and generations of playgoers have alternately laughed and wept through the adventures of the two girls Henriette and Lquisc, the blind sisters. The production of "The Two Orphans" at this time carries a special significance, for il has been made the basis of D. W. Griffith' s film masterpiece, "Orphans of the Storm," which at present is the largest priced photo-play running today in the larger cities. "The Two Orphan^ .has a strong heart appeal in the troubles and terrors of the two girls and the members of the company arc all cast in strong roles. A number of extra players will augment next weeks cast. The singe settings to be used are beautiful particularly the view of Paris with the spire of Notre Dnmc in the distance and the scene outside the church. The Hershcy Sunday School Base Hall League will have completed the second week of their schedule with the game tomorrow evening when the United Brethren and the Luthera n teams compete for supremacy on the local Park diamond. While these games have been well supported by the adherents of the various learns in the league it would be an added incentive for the players at all times to know that I hey have the undivided support of every cil.i7.01t of (he community. Willie the class of ball disp layed has not been of a professional nature the players at all limns do their best and purel y local talent hat) given the amateur game a big boost in Hershcy. Clinics will be played every Monday and Friday evening up to and including the first week in September. The games begin promptly ut (I o'clock , admission is free with an opportunity to show your appreciation in the form of a free-will collection which will be used ill the purchase of mldili oiinl equip-ment for the league.

"The Bandit Man" and "Two Orphans" Next Attractions C. Swartz's four base swat, with two on, in the final inning, was the.deciding factor in the defeat administered by the locals to the Alli-son A. A., of Harrishiirg, on Thursday even-ing. Two were gone at the time, E. Swartz and Fenner having popped out, but E. Zimmerman and Alberts having slapped out torrid grounders that were not fielded , were resting on third and second sacks respect-ively when Charley stepped to the rubber. Darkness was fast gathering on the playing field and the fans were wildly howling for a safe swat when catching a fast one on the beezer Charley started the old apple a-traveling at projectilesrate between right and centre fields , the ball a rolling beyond the trees and before it was returned he had romped around the sacks with his two fellow pal s preceding him. This mighty swat was a life saver since the opponents in the previous inning had played havoc with the morale of the locals for a total of four run s, a sufficient number to tie the score. Carched, Allison's twirler, opened with a long shot into the trees along the right field line, a shot that' M. Swartz after a long run, almost smothered. And then certain things happened that made the local infield look almost like an Mclnnis- Collins-Barry-Baker combination. Please remember, I said "almost." What these certain things were will remain untold except that they made the old reliable Morris who was on the mound for "Patty's" gang, feel as though he had lost his very last fri end. The outlook at this moment was very gloomy for it seemed all the visitors had to do was hit the ball and another run was registered. But the boys tightened up after the score had been tied and everybody breathed a bit easier. Hinkle pitched sterling ball, allowing but one hit, and deserved a shut out. Every run the visitors took along back home with them was a genuine gift, presented by the outfit that was sworn to give to Morri s their very best support. Ten errors will not help any hurler win his game regardless of how well he pitches. Though Morris issued three free passes they hardly figured in the scoring. The veteran's pitching was very commend-able arid we are glad that Charley came along in the final frame with that timely wallop to save the game. Hershey ABRHO A E Henry, c 3 0 2 7 1 0 E.

PRESBYTERIAN AND LUTHERAN IN DEADLOCK The Presbyterians and the Lutherans staged a thrilling battle on Monday evening that was witnessed by the largest crowd that has yet attended a Sunday School League contest. It was full of interest and exciting moments. The Pres'ns. opened with Henry flying out to Miller. Boyer was hit, stole second and third , and completed the circuit when Leithiser's throw which was wide caromed off Albert's glove into left field. Hocker flied out and Slesser fanned the breeze for the third out. The Lutherans started strong tkaing advantage of Dressler's unsteadiness and by coupling two hits with a free pass, Hocker's error on Daniel' s scorching bounder, and Albert being hit by the pitcher , were able to put three runs across. Neither side scored in the second but in the third the Presbyterians added two. Dressier went out Leithiser to Bluffier. Henry walked and Boyer- clouted a two-sacker, Henry stopping at third. Slesser was equal the occasion by poking out a pretty single over second while "Pol |y" and "Hal" scored. Slesser was out on an attempted stea l of second. The Lutherans added one on Daniel's single and stea l of second and Cole's single. The Derry ites continued Ihe good work in the fourth by putting over another marker that tied the score. Ensminger started off with a double, Tinney flied out but Keck came through with a single that sent Dan. across with the tying run. The Lutherans were idle in their half. Copenhnver weakened in the fifth and sent the first two batters down to first on pusses. He tightened up, temporarily, striking out Mocker and causing Slesser to float an easy out to Cole in centre. I'hisminger however smacked a double into left-centre sending Hen ry and Boyer across and putting (he Pres'ns into a two run. lend. Dan. on an attempted steal of third was an easy third out. Leithiser, in the Lul liern n half , pulled the unexpected by gelling on. He had whiffed the two previous times up mid with hvo strikes on him it looked as t hough he was going to have a "perfect day " at Ihe slick. However he fooled them by placing a slow roller along third which Keek threw into the swimming pool "Bill" pulling up at second, Daniels whiffed but Albert , picking out it fust one, nicked it square on Ihe nose for a migh ty wallop throiight the pines in centre, It was good for a round-!ripper and with "Bill" preceding him across Ihe rubber , the score was again lied. Cole flied out to Tinney and Liller , biittin gfor Suavely, fanned. Tinney opened the final frame with u two-bagger at which juncture Copenhnver wan yniiked mid Daniels look up the hurling task . Keek went down on strikes , Dressier flied to Cole, now on short, and Dowhower, who had displaced Holland , fanned tlie breeze for the fili al out, Dressier , who was getting stronger each frame, sal the Lutherans down in quirk order, Shullz , Shifller and Copenhnver each going down via the strike route , and the game on account of darkness was called with the score lied nt (I, HERSHEY MAN .ELECTED DELEGATE TO NATIONAL CONVENTION Word has. been received of tlie election of Mr. Johp H. Snyder, Esq,, a member of Holy Trinity Lutheran Chur ch , Hershey ns 11 delegate to the National Convention of (be Uni ted Lutheran Church In America which will he held in Buffalo , New York, in October.

This is just another evidence of National recognition accorded to one of Ilershey 's most influential citizens, July 4 at Hershey Park Will Prove Delightful Day Lovers of music are promised a delightful treat for Sunday afternoon, July 2, when, on the Park Orchestra Program, will be present-ed Mrs. Katherine Martin Hanson, a soprano of exceptional attainments and possessing an unusually sweet voice. Mrs. Hanson will sing her first number, "A Heart Thats Free," by Robyn and in the second part will sing, "Rackety Coo" from Katrinka, by Rudolf Friml. It is also announced that Mrs. Hanson will sing at the concert on the.after-noon of July 4.

The crowd that thronged the large pavilion numbered close to a thousand and goes down in Park history as one of the largest crowds that has ever attended a dance here. A big feature of the evening was the sing-ing of Jack Gallagher, the silver-toned tenor. He possesses a voice that is big and strong and his work on this evening was exception-ally good. Many came to the dance simply to hear his splendid voice and they greatly enjoyed the evening even though, they did . not dance. It is therefor with true delight that the Park Management is able to announce they have been successful in re-engaging the Sirens for an evening in July. Due to popular demand and the enviable reputation the Sirens enjoy, it is difficult to complete a booking with them except the date be far in advance. It was impossible to engage them for either Wednesday or Saturday through-out the balance of the regular season and .consequently, since the call for their return was so insistent, the Park Management was obliged to book them for Monday, July 24. It is positive this announcement will be received with an equal expression of approva l and it is anticipated that on this evening the Sirens will again be greeted by a great, throng of happy dance patrons. AN OPEN LETTER Dear Public: We hope that our Girl Reserve Tag Day on Monday, Jul y 3, will bring to you the existence of an organization at the local Y. W. C. A., called the Girl Reserves. Some people become interested in things after they have spent money for its support—no matter how small the sum. We arc Ihe Girl Reserves (We're her, We're there, We're everywhere). We belong to that branch of the Y, W. C. A. that take s care of the younger girls. We are given training through normal , and natura l acti vities , the habits and ideals , which will make us useful citizens and helpful , capable and ready lo make America safe for Demo-cracy. • • The Girl Reserves, the insignia of which is the Blue Triangle, is a part of 11 National and International Movement for girls and women. The Blue Triangle of the Y. W. C. A„ is well known throughout ourope today ; will you not help us make it here in America? We know that you will be ex-ceedingly kind to us 011 Monday, Jul y 3, Thank you for your interest. Sincerely yours , The Girl Reserves Her shey Y, W. C, A. WOMEN VOTERS MEET AT HARRIS-BURG Women from Daup hin , Cumberland and [<chauon Counties gathered on lust Frida y afternoon at Reservoir Park, Harrisburg, for a tri-eoiinly meeting of the Vague of Women Voters. About two hundred women were present nnd heard , speeches on various governmental questions by men and women well equi pped to present their subjects. The list of speakers included : Miss Martha G. Thomas, Treasurer of (ho Pennsyl-vania league of Women Voters; John II. Ferlig, Assistant , Director of the Legislative Reference Ihneitu i Dr. I/eoimrd U, Vox, of the Commission on Reorganization of Slate Government; Mrs. Clarence Renshaw, Vieo- Chainnun of the Democratic Stale Committee nnd Mrs. Elmer K. Melick, Field Secretary of the Republican Slate Committee, Mrs. Lawrence IxswIh Smith , of Strafford, Vleo-Chiurnmn of the Pennsylvania. I-enguo of Women Voters , presided at the meeting which followed a luncheon in the pavilion, Soprano Soloist Will Assist Next Sunday Concert The United Brethren and the boys of St. Joan of Arc Parish met in a Sunday School League contest on Friday evening before a large and enthusiastic assembly of spectators The contest may well be termed a big "sur-prise game" for there was hardly a person in the stands or who participated in the game who was not the recipient of a genuine sur-prise. "Mac's" proteges, though they held the Lutheran s to a 4 to 2 score on lasfTMonday evening, were given but passing considera- [ tion by the directorate and players, of the Brethren representation. Manager Zent-meyer was so confident of easy victory that he started the game with a second string pitcher, G. Robertson, but in the very first frame things ocurred that sent a scare into the U. B. camp, for after the smoke of the first half had cleared the boys from West Hershey had crossed the rujj ber four times, putting" them into a commanding lead. Heikel was assigned to pitching duty for the_ Catholics and was found to be well nigh invincible. He was somewhat wild but managed to hold the hard hitting Brethren in check until the fourth inning when they crossed the rubber with two runs. The youths under the tutelage of the veteran "Mac" continued the march in spite of the fact that Swartz, the U. B. ace, had displaced "Bobbie" on the mound, in the fourth, and when they closed the fifth were leading by a margin of seven runs. The Brethren with an unexpected defeat-awaiting them bore an expression of grim determina-tion when they came in for their half of the sixth. There was a wicked gleam in their eyes and they viciously proceeded to take the scalp of Heikel. After they had sent five run s across Heikel sent out an S. O. S. and Miller was assigned to the rescue task. Two of the Brethren were resting on the sacks at the time. The third ball Miller heaved went ricocheting through the receiver and Zentmeyer, who had essayed a steal of third on the delivery continued his flight until he had crossed the rubber. At this juncture and upon this lone incident was precipitated a discussion long and heated in which almost everybody on the field and in the stands participated. Umpire-in-chief Rittle waved "Paps" back to third and a riot almost ensued. Play was resumed after fifteen minutes of swiftly fading daylight had fceeri lost, the clamor,, noise and excitement had subsided and 'Paps" had returned to third. The Brethren management however, according to announcement of the umpire, will enter formal protest to the Board of Directors. "Paps" tried a steal of home but was nipped and the inning closed with the Catholics two runs to the good. It is extremely lamentable that any Sunday School League contest should be so marred by ungentlemanly argument and riotous discussion as was this game. The Umpire is partly responsible for he, un-questionably, should exercise very rigibly his authority in all disputes. No player is authorized to question a decision except the Captains of the respective teams, and any player violating this rule .should be immediate-ly eliminated from the game. The responsi-bility also resls upon the Managemen t of tliu respective teams. They should exercise sufficient self control , should possess sufficient, honor and respect, should wcild sufficient influence over the members of their respective teams, as to represent, a certain force in preventing any disturbances such ns marked this game. Upon the Officials of the League rest the larger responsibility. They not only must'devise rules and means of keeping the game free and clean from ungentlemanly tactics hut should also devise a means of keeping in check a riotous mob of specta tors. Surely the stands arc large enough (.0 accom-odate the crowds that attend these games and in the stands , either grandstand or bleachers , th ey should be obli ged to sil. There is no good reason for permitting spec-tators to clutter up the benches that have been provided for players or for permitting them to stand around along the foul lines interfering with players attempting to catch foul flies. It they insist on standing along the foul lines instead of silting on the stands ropes should be spanned and proper incisures taken to keep all spectators behind the ropes The incident of last Friday evening was a regrettable affair and was in a large measure due to the mob activities of Ihe spectators. Vile epithets , unrul y tempers , healed displays of lost reason , never hel ped to settle any question, Mailers are never properly, amic-ably, satisfactorily adjusted by 11 riotous mob. Very serious considera t ion should therefore be given to curliiiling the physica l activities of the crowds at, those games, each one of which will be marked by keen rivalry. The Sunday School League will be con-ducted on an absolutel y honor basis anil if everyone will do what is proper there will not be occasion for a repetition of the scene that marked this game, HOSPITAL PATIENTS RETURN HOME We are all glad to know that Prof. A. M. Hinkel and Austin J. Thiol Who recently underwent surgical treatment at. the Harris-burg Hospital are buck home again, Prof. Ilinkel was brought, to his homo on KiiHt Arebu Ave,, on, last Wednesday after-noon, . He was in a very weakened condition at th e time hut during the week has regained much of his normal strength and it is ex-pected In severa l weeks more he will have completely recovered. Mr. Thcil came home on Monday of this week. Ho too is progressing very nicely and within 11 week or two if is expected will be enjoying customary good health, U.

The Luttringer Stock Company announce
hvo splendid attractions for production ut
tlie Park Theatre during the week of July 3
to July 8. The first half of the week will be
presented "The Bandit Man" written by
DeWitt Newing, author of "Love of Su
Shong," the play that made such a tremendous
hit at the Park Theatre last season.
"The Bandit Man" is a play with ninety
percent of its characters Mexican, the setting
is entirely Mexican and the story occurs
during one of the revolutions that happens to
be any time in Mexico. The author'has in-jected
more genuine comedy into it than can
be found in half a dozen plays masquerading
as comedies. There are thrills, tears and
laughter cleverly intermingled and there are
as many excruciatingly funny situations as
there are exciting moments.
The story tells of a young American min-ing
engineer who goes to Mexico to develop
a silver mine that has been turned over to him
in trust for a proud and tempermental
Spanish girl—so what more natural than
that he should fall in love with the dark-eyed
Senorita. He does and for four acts it leads
him through a series of scenes and situations
that thrill an audience one moment and rocks
them with laughter the next. Of course he
wins but not until he has out-bandited a
notorious bandit and made love in the latest
and most approved American style.
Those who have been privileged to see a
production of the play seem to agree that
Mr. Newing has scored another ten strike
with his "The Bandit Man" and that it will
prove to be one of the most entertaining plays
produced in stock during the past several
years. The comdey role played by John
Rowe is said to be one of the funniest comedy
parts ever written.
The latter half of the week will be presented
"The Two Ojphans," which for more than
two generations has charmed the theatre
goers in all lands and climes. "The Two
Orphans," has been translated into all known
languages and generations of playgoers have
alternately laughed and wept through the
adventures of the two girls Henriette and
Lquisc, the blind sisters.
The production of "The Two Orphans" at
this time carries a special significance, for il
has been made the basis of D. W. Griffith' s
film masterpiece, "Orphans of the Storm,"
which at present is the largest priced photo-play
running today in the larger cities.
"The Two Orphan^ .has a strong heart
appeal in the troubles and terrors of the two
girls and the members of the company arc all
cast in strong roles. A number of extra players
will augment next weeks cast. The singe
settings to be used are beautiful particularly
the view of Paris with the spire of Notre Dnmc
in the distance and the scene outside the
church.
The Hershcy Sunday School Base Hall
League will have completed the second week
of their schedule with the game tomorrow
evening when the United Brethren and the
Luthera n teams compete for supremacy on
the local Park diamond. While these games
have been well supported by the adherents
of the various learns in the league it would
be an added incentive for the players at all
times to know that I hey have the undivided
support of every cil.i7.01t of (he community.
Willie the class of ball disp layed has not been
of a professional nature the players at all
limns do their best and purel y local talent hat)
given the amateur game a big boost in
Hershcy.
Clinics will be played every Monday and
Friday evening up to and including the first
week in September. The games begin
promptly ut (I o'clock , admission is free with
an opportunity to show your appreciation in
the form of a free-will collection which will
be used ill the purchase of mldili oiinl equip-ment

C. Swartz's four base swat, with two on, in
the final inning, was the.deciding factor in the
defeat administered by the locals to the Alli-son
A. A., of Harrishiirg, on Thursday even-ing.
Two were gone at the time, E. Swartz
and Fenner having popped out, but E.
Zimmerman and Alberts having slapped out
torrid grounders that were not fielded , were
resting on third and second sacks respect-ively
when Charley stepped to the rubber.
Darkness was fast gathering on the playing
field and the fans were wildly howling for a
safe swat when catching a fast one on the
beezer Charley started the old apple a-traveling
at projectilesrate between right and
centre fields , the ball a rolling beyond the
trees and before it was returned he had
romped around the sacks with his two fellow
pal s preceding him.
This mighty swat was a life saver since
the opponents in the previous inning had
played havoc with the morale of the locals
for a total of four run s, a sufficient number to
tie the score. Carched, Allison's twirler,
opened with a long shot into the trees along
the right field line, a shot that' M. Swartz
after a long run, almost smothered. And
then certain things happened that made the
local infield look almost like an Mclnnis-
Collins-Barry-Baker combination. Please
remember, I said "almost." What these
certain things were will remain untold
except that they made the old reliable Morris
who was on the mound for "Patty's" gang,
feel as though he had lost his very last
fri end. The outlook at this moment was
very gloomy for it seemed all the visitors had
to do was hit the ball and another run was
registered. But the boys tightened up after
the score had been tied and everybody
breathed a bit easier.
Hinkle pitched sterling ball, allowing but
one hit, and deserved a shut out. Every
run the visitors took along back home with
them was a genuine gift, presented by the
outfit that was sworn to give to Morri s their
very best support. Ten errors will not help
any hurler win his game regardless of how
well he pitches. Though Morris issued three
free passes they hardly figured in the scoring.
The veteran's pitching was very commend-able
arid we are glad that Charley came along
in the final frame with that timely wallop to
save the game.
