However, the last day of this battle for credits brought out of hiding cartons loaded with credit coupons. It was a busy day for the Contest Editor. One contestant after the other came Into the office with a big carton under her arm filled with credits to her name. Of course, some contestants were not ao lucky in securing credits, but Miss Pehnel, Miss Wambold, Mis.s Koch. Miss Wagner and Miss Vannatta turned them in by the million. At nrst It looked very much as though these five girls were going to have a very close count, but when the ballots were counted and tabulated. It was found that Miss Fehnel turn¬ ed in the last day of this contest, 2.831.500 credits. This total added ta her former total of 1,373,200, gave her a handsome lead. Nevfrtheless, it was necessary for the winner of this contest to re¬ serve as many credit.-, as possible and and the credits Ml.ss Fehnel re¬ served for tho last count were not too many. Mi:ss Wambold turned in tbe last day, 1,930,500 credits; Mi-s Koch. 1.418.500; Miss Wagner, 1,241,800, and Miss Vannatta, 369,- 300 There was a possibility for anyone of these contestants to win the trip in the final count up to the very last day.

Thus far the reason is com¬ pletely in the dark an no one can even hazard a guess as to what Is the matter. It is also rumored that Gus Gar-scar will hold the driving reins from now on. . Another bit of news that broke on Tuesday that had the East Penn league baseball men talking was the fact that AUentown has replaced Reading in the New York-Pennsyl¬ vania league. The question that is making the rounds at the present time is whether or not this new club will effect the Amicus and Ponies' drawing powers. This may make a difference to tlie East Penn league and then again it may not effect it in the least. As far as league games were con¬ cerned Nazareth .split even with the Ponies over the week-end, winning one on Saturday by a 6 to 5 score, when Grat Quinter drove a homer that broke up a tie and losing one ;.in Sunday to the same club. 10 to 5. In the night game with the Phil¬ lipsburg Cubs. Nazareth won ca-ily, 7 to 2. Old man Jup Pluv held back the Kraemer tfam from competing in their league games over the week¬ end. The game scheduled Tuesday night with the M. E. Company had to be po^tpoiipcl until a later date.

guess as to who would win the trip train is waiting for them^ "a Yellowstone Park. At least nve^ Miss Fehnel will be the Good Will, of the contestants looked like pos-j^ssary. "Miss Nazareth reprcs. stblo winners and with the millions of credits held out of the ballot box, no one knew who was holding the most. However, the last day of this battle for credits brought out of hiding cartons loaded with credit coupons. It was a busy day for the Contest Editor. One contestant after the other came Into the office with a big carton under her arm filled with credits to her name. Of course, some contestants were not ao lucky in securing credits, but Miss Pehnel, Miss Wambold, Mis.s Koch. Miss Wagner and Miss Vannatta turned them in by the million. At nrst It looked very much as though these five girls were going to have a very close count, but when the ballots were counted and tabulated. It was found that Miss Fehnel turn¬ ed in the last day of this contest, 2.831.500 credits. This total added ta her former total of 1,373,200, gave her a handsome lead.
Nevfrtheless, it was necessary for the winner of this contest to re¬ serve as many credit.-, as possible and and the credits Ml.ss Fehnel re¬ served for tho last count were not too many. Mi:ss Wambold turned in tbe last day, 1,930,500 credits; Mi-s Koch. 1.418.500; Miss Wagner, 1,241,800, and Miss Vannatta, 369,- 300 There was a possibility for anyone of these contestants to win the trip in the final count up to the very last day.
Fallowing n the final count by the Jiicl','e.- and the certificate that de¬ cides the winner. It will be noted from this report that the winner, Miss Fehnel. had 845,500 more credits to her name than her near¬ est competitor. Mi.ss Wambold.

NAZARETH SPLITS OVER WEEKEND
A good deal of .surprise has been expres.sed by baseball men in the East Penn League when it was learned that Joe Bird, doughty man¬ ager of the Martin's Creek Club, who took the first half league hon¬ ors with ease, has requested his re¬ lease. Thus far the reason is com¬ pletely in the dark an no one can even hazard a guess as to what Is the matter. It is also rumored that Gus Gar-scar will hold the driving reins from now on. .
Another bit of news that broke on Tuesday that had the East Penn league baseball men talking was the fact that AUentown has replaced Reading in the New York-Pennsyl¬ vania league. The question that is making the rounds at the present time is whether or not this new club will effect the Amicus and Ponies' drawing powers. This may make a difference to tlie East Penn league and then again it may not effect it in the least.
As far as league games were con¬ cerned Nazareth .split even with the Ponies over the week-end, winning one on Saturday by a 6 to 5 score, when Grat Quinter drove a homer that broke up a tie and losing one ;.in Sunday to the same club. 10 to 5. In the night game with the Phil¬ lipsburg Cubs. Nazareth won ca-ily, 7 to 2.
Old man Jup Pluv held back the Kraemer tfam from competing in their league games over the week¬ end. The game scheduled Tuesday night with the M. E. Company had to be po^tpoiipcl until a later date.
