The Hershey Press 1922-06-29

              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

"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.

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

SCRANTON SIRENS RE-ENGAGED
The Scranton Sirens made their initial
appearance at Hershey Park Dance Pavilion
on Wednesday, June 21, and it is hardly
needful to say that they made a big hit
establishing themselves firmly within the
goodwill of all who attended the dance on
this evening. 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.

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,
