Creatore ss Band to Play In Hershe y Saturda y and Sunda y, Aug. 25 & 26 The music lovers of Central Pennsyl-vania can again look forward with a great deal of pleasure upon the return of Crea-tore's Band to Hershey Park on Saturday and Sunday. August 25th and 26th, at which time concerts will be given in the afternoon at 3.00 o'clock and in the evening at 8.00 o'clock, the concerts being rendered in the Hershev Park Convention Hall. Everyone of the vast throngs who heard Creatore's Band during Hershey's 20th Anniversary Celebration in June will attest to the fact that this band is in a class by itself, filling an individual niche in America's musical world. It will be espec-ially gratifying to those who heard the band at that tune to have the pleasure of hearing this wonderful band play under more advantageous conditions, and the four concerts in the Convention Hall should be rare pleasures indeed. . The unanimous opinion of the musical critics in all of the cities visited by Crea-tore's Band concur that it is the only band before the public today which serves its patrons with music such as any of the large symphonic orchestras may well be proud of producing. The wood, reed and brass instruments are most effective, and the ensemble is perfect at all times. There is a unanimity of action and a precision of movement that makes it appear as if the band is a gigantic unit. Signor Guiseppe Creatore is a man of unusual personality, and this linked with musical ability, and a directorial genius, has won for him fame throughout Europe and America. He gets the highest results and the last atom of feeling and expression from his men and the varied instruments composing his wonderful organization. The perfect control over his musicians, especially in the balancing of his instru-mentation is notable. As a conductor Creatore stands in the front rank; he has all the emotional feeling of his race. Every emotion of his face and gesture of his hands mean something that his players respond to as a unit. Music seems to raise him to an ecstasy of ex-pression. He holds his musicians in those eloquent hands of his, and he plays upon them as upon a mighty instrument. So he produces marvellous effects, flashes of dazzling light, rich purple shadows, masses of tremendous harmony. A demonstration of popular enthusiasm followed the close of Creatore's final con-cert during Hershey's 20th Anniversary Celebration. The final number of those four splendid programs was Bizet's Car-men aria. It was played with wonderful fire, and when the last, crashing tones sub-sided there were a few seconds of silence and then the audience arose to its feet and applauded. The deafening applause lasted for several moments and then those present moved away, stirred as rarely before. It was a tribute to the splendid work of the band that Creatore heads. No audience was ever moved more deeply. The band upon its return to Hershey on Saturday and Sunday, August 25th and 26th, will be heard in four entirely different programs than that which they gave during the Anniversary. Aside from the 50 talented musicians, a noted opera soloist, will be on the program. To hear Creatore's Band is a wonderful opportunity, and the Hershey Convention Hall on those two days should be packed to its capacity at each and every concert. There will be a charge of 50 cents for re-served seats, the proceeds of which will be for the benefit of the Hershey Red Cross. The reserved seat chart is in charge of John Sollenberger, at the Hershey Trust Company. Tickets are also on sale at C. M, Sigler, Inc., 30 North Second Street, Harrisburg; Miller Music Store, Cumber-land Street, Lebanon; Kirk Johnson & Co., West King Street, Lancaster; Wittich Store, 116 South Sixth Street, Reading and Musical Shop, 625Penn Street, Reading. Palmyra Baseball Mgr. Writes to "News" Early in the season two officials of the Hershey Base Ball club made a trip to Palmyra and after an interview with the manager of the Palmyra Athletic Associa-tion it was decided by the both parties present to play an eight-game series of baseball between the two towns namely Heiahey and Palmyra and the dates for playing these games were decided on at this time it being understood that for every game that Palmyra played at Hershey, Hershey would play at Palmyra and in that way each team would have the same amount of games at home, thereby sharing equally in the financial end of it. Four of these games were played O. K. and the 5th game which was scheduled to be played at Hershey was called at the end of the 4th inning on account of a heavy rain which was falling at this time the score standing 6 to 0 in favor of Palmyra. Hershey kept the receipts of this game, said nothing about the rain checks to the fans at this game nor at a later date and probably figured that they were lucky that it did rain as there would hardly be any one that could make a near guess what the score would have been had the game gone for the entire seven innings. They never asked Palmyra to play this game over at a later date and had agreed to come to Palmyra to play on Tuesday, July 24th, and according the game was advertised that way by Palmyra. When this date arrived it was too wet to play a game here at Palmyra so the game was cancelled at three-thirty in the afternoon, ,they being notified to that effect. Our next scheduled date was on August 2d for Palmyra to play at Hershey which If played would have given Hershey the receipts for four games and Palmyra two games. To this Palmyra would not agree and according told Hershey that they would have to play at Palmyra on this date which would even matters up, of course Hershey, having the short end of the series thus far (the games standing 3 to 1 in favor of Palmyra) now wants to grab the long end of the finances, of course Palmyra objects to such treatment and says game of August 2d to be played at Hershey must be played at Palmyra In order to divide up the financial end as it should be. Hershey sees an opportunity to steer clear from a few more lickings and stands pat that fame of August 2d must be played at lershey. Of course Palmyra, not being educated in Baseball to see things as Hershey does, we decided to cancel the game also the remainder of the games this being the unanimous verdict that that bunch la not in, our class any ways and as long as the present management Is in charge of things a.»i,- AD nulmn>i.yiMia , ,u1t«ua.y» .n'.r.inll mnsv\i.i Iuxjvi tulimn* . iwn»Uni«i «n»n<\jrr more Hershey games. ' CHAS. D.ZEIGLER Manager, In this issue of the "Press" we are printing a letter that was sent to the ''Lebanon News" for publication by Clws. D. Zeigler, manager of the Polmyra base-ball team. It seems that Mr. Zeigler had listened so long to the wild talk of some of the Palmyra rootera that he had to get some of it out of his system, consequently he got out hie little pad and pencil and after due deliberation became , the author ff a brilliant effusion. He forthwith sent it to the "News", and so impressed was he with his literary gem that he saw to it that the "News" was distributed throughout Her-shey. Evidently thinking that it would "knock us cold'', For our renders Information we herewith print the baseball schedule that was de-cided upon by the officials of both teams earlier in the season, as follows: June 2. Palmyra at Hcrshoy, une 23. Hershey at Palmyra. July 4. Hershey at Palmyra (forenoon). July 4. Palmyra at Hershey (afternoon). July 10. Palmyra at Hershey. July 24. Hershey at Palmyra August 2. Palmyra at Hershey. August 14. Hershey at Palmyra It is true that the fifth game of the series was called on account of rain. It was a game that should never have been started, as it was drizzling at the time. It is true that Palmyra was ahead at the end of the 4th inning, having got the breaks of the game up to that time, but a game is never won until the last man is out. Mr. Zeigler will bear us out in this statement, for Hershey had Palmyra trounced decisively in the afternoon's game on July 4th, and which was won by Palmyra in the later innings, when Hepting weakened and Hershey had no other pitcher to take his place. In regards to rain checks for the game the thunder storm that finally ended the game sent the crowd running off the field— getting rain checks was the least thing upon their mind at that time. However, the tickets for this game entitled admission to the following game, and it was so an-nounced. Mr. Zeigler in this instance is making a mountain out of a molehill. Mr. Zeigler's statement that this can-celled game had never been broached, would indicate that he is rather forgetful. The facts of the matter is that on July 23 Mr. Zeigler and Mr. Snavely decided to play this cancelled game in August. The sixth game, according to the schedul, was to have oeen played at Palmyra. On that day it rained like blue blazes. Mr. Snavely, manager of the Hershey baseball team, called up Mr. Zeigler in the forenoon to see if the game would oe cancelled. Mr. Zeigler would give no assurance, although he knew full well that it would be an im-possibility to play the game, for it was raining at the time and the clouds were as heavy as lead. However, at 3.30 o'clock he phoned Mr. Snavely, cancelling the game. It was too late at this time for Mr. Snavely to get in touch with his players, consequently they reported for duty, with a result that they had to be paid. Evident-ly Mr. Zeigler had this thought in mind. On August 2 Palmyra was to have played at Hershey, according to the schedule, but being afraid of the outcome, quit the series. Mr. Zeigler states that Hershey is not in Palmyra's class, If we are not in their class, why all the clatter and fuss, As yet we haven't seen any runaway games. Palmyra had to extend themselves during every game. The second game was handed to Palmy-ra in the tenth inning by the umpire (who is now a discord, because he gave Palmyra a dose of its own medicine.) The third game they won by a close margin, and the 4th game was handed to them on a silver platter after the game had been won by Hershey. We note , that on Saturday Carlisle handed Palmyra a goose-egg, scorlpg 9 runs off of Plowman, and that Zinn fanned eleven of Palmyra's "Babe'Ruth's", Her-shey won four games from Carlisle, but wc dlden'tget on thohousetopaandshout totho wlnda '^hat they arc not In our class." Mr. Zcigler ia right when ho aaya Her-shey Is not educated in baseball to see things as Palmyra docs, All wo can say to this statement is that we are very thankful that we are not so educated, very thankful indeed. UNUSUAL DANCE ATTRACTION On Wednesday evening, August 15th, Mrs. Earl Fuller's Classical Jazz Orchestra will be the attraction at,the dance pavilion In Hershey Park. This orchestra for two years played at the Rococo Cafe, New York. The or-chestra is composed of seven syncopatcra and Mrs. Earl Fuller, on tour and playing from Florida to Maine. ' Tills is an opportunity of dancing to real Broadway music by real Broadway synco-patera, Admission, 75 cento, including tax. Big Advance Sale for "East Is West Manager Braisead of the Ella Kramer Stock Co. was among the thousands who saw "East is West" when it was playing its phenomenal run in New York City. He instantly realized that, when it was re-leased for stock production, it would rank as one of the greatest entertainments that the theatre could offer its patrons. Since that time he has kept his eves on the piece and, as soon as he learned that the Century Play Company had secured the stock rights and that it was available, he wired for the play. As a result, it is going to be pro-duced by the Ella Kramer Stock Company at the Hershey Park Theatre on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week, with matinee on Saturday afternoon. Having witnessed the original company, in which Fay Bainter, now famous because of the part of Ming Toy, and Lester Lonergan, one of the greatest of American directors, were featured. Manager Braistad has a perfect knowledge of the piece. He has given instructions that money is not to be spared in making the production one of the best that local theatregoers have ever seen. In every detail, the big scenic pro-duction will be duplicated. Nothing that can be done to make the feast of the eyes as delightful as the listening to the words of the play will be left undone. As a result, the scenic and art staff of the Hershey Park Theatre are working as they never have before in preparation for Thursday's opening. "East Is West" is essentially a comedy. But there runs through it a wistful sob that adds to its wonderful attractiveness. It combines romance, in one of the most fascinating love stories ever written, with touches of drama that bring audiences out of their seats. It is not a speculation but a play that stands among those who have the longest runs in the American Theatre to their credit. The story deals with a little Chinese girl who Is about to be sold from a love boat in China. She is brought to San Francisco by a Chinese merchant. It becomes im-possible for him to keep her there and he, in turn, is about to sell her to Charlie Yang, another Chinaman, when the American boy who loves' her and with whom she has fallen in love, appears on the scene. To tell more of the story would be to ruin a delightful entertainment. Because of the fame of "East Is West" the demand for tickets at the Hershey Park Theatre has been an unusually heavy one and Manager Braistad suggests that all who have not already made their arrange-ments for one of tho four performances do so at once in order that there may be no delay in getting them and in order that, favorite seats may be secured. The cast of characters is as follows: , PROLOGUE Luola Blnlsdcll Sing Song Girls Miss Berkeley , .,, Miss Jackson Proprietor of the Love Boat Wesley Barney Billy Benson Clarence LeRoy LoSang Kcc ,, Gordon Ruflin 1st Customer Frederick Clayton 2nd Customer Ralph Crabtrce HopToy Geo.Gllday Ming Toy Miss Ella Kramer THE PLAY Servant....' ,,, .

Shultz has been nominated as the ' Hershey Chocolate Company's candidate for the Good Will Election. The election, to be carried on through the auspices of the American Committee for Devastated France, will mean a six weeks' trip to France for the fortunate members of the next Good Will Delegation. Born in Lancaster, where she was graduated from the Lancaster High School, Miss Shultz has lived at Hershey for the past seven years, and worked first in the factory itself, then in the credit department to replace a man away in the service, and now is in the cost department.

For the first 100,000 votes counted in the total, the candidate with the highest number of votes is elected. For the next 80,000 votes, the second highest is elected. And thereafter down the line, the next highest candidate in standing is elected with each 60,000 votes cast.

Full Text | Creatore ss Band to Play In Hershe y Saturda y and Sunda y, Aug. 25 & 26 The music lovers of Central Pennsyl-vania can again look forward with a great deal of pleasure upon the return of Crea-tore's Band to Hershey Park on Saturday and Sunday. August 25th and 26th, at which time concerts will be given in the afternoon at 3.00 o'clock and in the evening at 8.00 o'clock, the concerts being rendered in the Hershev Park Convention Hall. Everyone of the vast throngs who heard Creatore's Band during Hershey's 20th Anniversary Celebration in June will attest to the fact that this band is in a class by itself, filling an individual niche in America's musical world. It will be espec-ially gratifying to those who heard the band at that tune to have the pleasure of hearing this wonderful band play under more advantageous conditions, and the four concerts in the Convention Hall should be rare pleasures indeed. . The unanimous opinion of the musical critics in all of the cities visited by Crea-tore's Band concur that it is the only band before the public today which serves its patrons with music such as any of the large symphonic orchestras may well be proud of producing. The wood, reed and brass instruments are most effective, and the ensemble is perfect at all times. There is a unanimity of action and a precision of movement that makes it appear as if the band is a gigantic unit. Signor Guiseppe Creatore is a man of unusual personality, and this linked with musical ability, and a directorial genius, has won for him fame throughout Europe and America. He gets the highest results and the last atom of feeling and expression from his men and the varied instruments composing his wonderful organization. The perfect control over his musicians, especially in the balancing of his instru-mentation is notable. As a conductor Creatore stands in the front rank; he has all the emotional feeling of his race. Every emotion of his face and gesture of his hands mean something that his players respond to as a unit. Music seems to raise him to an ecstasy of ex-pression. He holds his musicians in those eloquent hands of his, and he plays upon them as upon a mighty instrument. So he produces marvellous effects, flashes of dazzling light, rich purple shadows, masses of tremendous harmony. A demonstration of popular enthusiasm followed the close of Creatore's final con-cert during Hershey's 20th Anniversary Celebration. The final number of those four splendid programs was Bizet's Car-men aria. It was played with wonderful fire, and when the last, crashing tones sub-sided there were a few seconds of silence and then the audience arose to its feet and applauded. The deafening applause lasted for several moments and then those present moved away, stirred as rarely before. It was a tribute to the splendid work of the band that Creatore heads. No audience was ever moved more deeply. The band upon its return to Hershey on Saturday and Sunday, August 25th and 26th, will be heard in four entirely different programs than that which they gave during the Anniversary. Aside from the 50 talented musicians, a noted opera soloist, will be on the program. To hear Creatore's Band is a wonderful opportunity, and the Hershey Convention Hall on those two days should be packed to its capacity at each and every concert. There will be a charge of 50 cents for re-served seats, the proceeds of which will be for the benefit of the Hershey Red Cross. The reserved seat chart is in charge of John Sollenberger, at the Hershey Trust Company. Tickets are also on sale at C. M, Sigler, Inc., 30 North Second Street, Harrisburg; Miller Music Store, Cumber-land Street, Lebanon; Kirk Johnson & Co., West King Street, Lancaster; Wittich Store, 116 South Sixth Street, Reading and Musical Shop, 625Penn Street, Reading. Palmyra Baseball Mgr. Writes to "News" Early in the season two officials of the Hershey Base Ball club made a trip to Palmyra and after an interview with the manager of the Palmyra Athletic Associa-tion it was decided by the both parties present to play an eight-game series of baseball between the two towns namely Heiahey and Palmyra and the dates for playing these games were decided on at this time it being understood that for every game that Palmyra played at Hershey, Hershey would play at Palmyra and in that way each team would have the same amount of games at home, thereby sharing equally in the financial end of it. Four of these games were played O. K. and the 5th game which was scheduled to be played at Hershey was called at the end of the 4th inning on account of a heavy rain which was falling at this time the score standing 6 to 0 in favor of Palmyra. Hershey kept the receipts of this game, said nothing about the rain checks to the fans at this game nor at a later date and probably figured that they were lucky that it did rain as there would hardly be any one that could make a near guess what the score would have been had the game gone for the entire seven innings. They never asked Palmyra to play this game over at a later date and had agreed to come to Palmyra to play on Tuesday, July 24th, and according the game was advertised that way by Palmyra. When this date arrived it was too wet to play a game here at Palmyra so the game was cancelled at three-thirty in the afternoon, ,they being notified to that effect. Our next scheduled date was on August 2d for Palmyra to play at Hershey which If played would have given Hershey the receipts for four games and Palmyra two games. To this Palmyra would not agree and according told Hershey that they would have to play at Palmyra on this date which would even matters up, of course Hershey, having the short end of the series thus far (the games standing 3 to 1 in favor of Palmyra) now wants to grab the long end of the finances, of course Palmyra objects to such treatment and says game of August 2d to be played at Hershey must be played at Palmyra In order to divide up the financial end as it should be. Hershey sees an opportunity to steer clear from a few more lickings and stands pat that fame of August 2d must be played at lershey. Of course Palmyra, not being educated in Baseball to see things as Hershey does, we decided to cancel the game also the remainder of the games this being the unanimous verdict that that bunch la not in, our class any ways and as long as the present management Is in charge of things a.»i,- AD nulmn>i.yiMia , ,u1t«ua.y» .n'.r.inll mnsv\i.i Iuxjvi tulimn* . iwn»Uni«i «n»n<\jrr more Hershey games. ' CHAS. D.ZEIGLER Manager, In this issue of the "Press" we are printing a letter that was sent to the ''Lebanon News" for publication by Clws. D. Zeigler, manager of the Polmyra base-ball team. It seems that Mr. Zeigler had listened so long to the wild talk of some of the Palmyra rootera that he had to get some of it out of his system, consequently he got out hie little pad and pencil and after due deliberation became , the author ff a brilliant effusion. He forthwith sent it to the "News", and so impressed was he with his literary gem that he saw to it that the "News" was distributed throughout Her-shey. Evidently thinking that it would "knock us cold'', For our renders Information we herewith print the baseball schedule that was de-cided upon by the officials of both teams earlier in the season, as follows: June 2. Palmyra at Hcrshoy, une 23. Hershey at Palmyra. July 4. Hershey at Palmyra (forenoon). July 4. Palmyra at Hershey (afternoon). July 10. Palmyra at Hershey. July 24. Hershey at Palmyra August 2. Palmyra at Hershey. August 14. Hershey at Palmyra It is true that the fifth game of the series was called on account of rain. It was a game that should never have been started, as it was drizzling at the time. It is true that Palmyra was ahead at the end of the 4th inning, having got the breaks of the game up to that time, but a game is never won until the last man is out. Mr. Zeigler will bear us out in this statement, for Hershey had Palmyra trounced decisively in the afternoon's game on July 4th, and which was won by Palmyra in the later innings, when Hepting weakened and Hershey had no other pitcher to take his place. In regards to rain checks for the game the thunder storm that finally ended the game sent the crowd running off the field— getting rain checks was the least thing upon their mind at that time. However, the tickets for this game entitled admission to the following game, and it was so an-nounced. Mr. Zeigler in this instance is making a mountain out of a molehill. Mr. Zeigler's statement that this can-celled game had never been broached, would indicate that he is rather forgetful. The facts of the matter is that on July 23 Mr. Zeigler and Mr. Snavely decided to play this cancelled game in August. The sixth game, according to the schedul, was to have oeen played at Palmyra. On that day it rained like blue blazes. Mr. Snavely, manager of the Hershey baseball team, called up Mr. Zeigler in the forenoon to see if the game would oe cancelled. Mr. Zeigler would give no assurance, although he knew full well that it would be an im-possibility to play the game, for it was raining at the time and the clouds were as heavy as lead. However, at 3.30 o'clock he phoned Mr. Snavely, cancelling the game. It was too late at this time for Mr. Snavely to get in touch with his players, consequently they reported for duty, with a result that they had to be paid. Evident-ly Mr. Zeigler had this thought in mind. On August 2 Palmyra was to have played at Hershey, according to the schedule, but being afraid of the outcome, quit the series. Mr. Zeigler states that Hershey is not in Palmyra's class, If we are not in their class, why all the clatter and fuss, As yet we haven't seen any runaway games. Palmyra had to extend themselves during every game. The second game was handed to Palmy-ra in the tenth inning by the umpire (who is now a discord, because he gave Palmyra a dose of its own medicine.) The third game they won by a close margin, and the 4th game was handed to them on a silver platter after the game had been won by Hershey. We note , that on Saturday Carlisle handed Palmyra a goose-egg, scorlpg 9 runs off of Plowman, and that Zinn fanned eleven of Palmyra's "Babe'Ruth's", Her-shey won four games from Carlisle, but wc dlden'tget on thohousetopaandshout totho wlnda '^hat they arc not In our class." Mr. Zcigler ia right when ho aaya Her-shey Is not educated in baseball to see things as Palmyra docs, All wo can say to this statement is that we are very thankful that we are not so educated, very thankful indeed. UNUSUAL DANCE ATTRACTION On Wednesday evening, August 15th, Mrs. Earl Fuller's Classical Jazz Orchestra will be the attraction at,the dance pavilion In Hershey Park. This orchestra for two years played at the Rococo Cafe, New York. The or-chestra is composed of seven syncopatcra and Mrs. Earl Fuller, on tour and playing from Florida to Maine. ' Tills is an opportunity of dancing to real Broadway music by real Broadway synco-patera, Admission, 75 cento, including tax. Big Advance Sale for "East Is West Manager Braisead of the Ella Kramer Stock Co. was among the thousands who saw "East is West" when it was playing its phenomenal run in New York City. He instantly realized that, when it was re-leased for stock production, it would rank as one of the greatest entertainments that the theatre could offer its patrons. Since that time he has kept his eves on the piece and, as soon as he learned that the Century Play Company had secured the stock rights and that it was available, he wired for the play. As a result, it is going to be pro-duced by the Ella Kramer Stock Company at the Hershey Park Theatre on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week, with matinee on Saturday afternoon. Having witnessed the original company, in which Fay Bainter, now famous because of the part of Ming Toy, and Lester Lonergan, one of the greatest of American directors, were featured. Manager Braistad has a perfect knowledge of the piece. He has given instructions that money is not to be spared in making the production one of the best that local theatregoers have ever seen. In every detail, the big scenic pro-duction will be duplicated. Nothing that can be done to make the feast of the eyes as delightful as the listening to the words of the play will be left undone. As a result, the scenic and art staff of the Hershey Park Theatre are working as they never have before in preparation for Thursday's opening. "East Is West" is essentially a comedy. But there runs through it a wistful sob that adds to its wonderful attractiveness. It combines romance, in one of the most fascinating love stories ever written, with touches of drama that bring audiences out of their seats. It is not a speculation but a play that stands among those who have the longest runs in the American Theatre to their credit. The story deals with a little Chinese girl who Is about to be sold from a love boat in China. She is brought to San Francisco by a Chinese merchant. It becomes im-possible for him to keep her there and he, in turn, is about to sell her to Charlie Yang, another Chinaman, when the American boy who loves' her and with whom she has fallen in love, appears on the scene. To tell more of the story would be to ruin a delightful entertainment. Because of the fame of "East Is West" the demand for tickets at the Hershey Park Theatre has been an unusually heavy one and Manager Braistad suggests that all who have not already made their arrange-ments for one of tho four performances do so at once in order that there may be no delay in getting them and in order that, favorite seats may be secured.

Shultz has been nominated as the ' Hershey Chocolate Company's candidate for the Good Will Election. The election, to be carried on through the auspices of the American Committee for Devastated France, will mean a six weeks' trip to France for the fortunate members of the next Good Will Delegation. Born in Lancaster, where she was graduated from the Lancaster High School, Miss Shultz has lived at Hershey for the past seven years, and worked first in the factory itself, then in the credit department to replace a man away in the service, and now is in the cost department.

The number of women to go to France depends on the total number of votes cast for all the candidates in the election at the close of the voting period. For the first 100,000 votes counted in the total, the candidate with the highest number of votes is elected. For the next 80,000 votes, the second highest is elected. And thereafter down the line, the next highest candidate in standing is elected with each 60,000 votes cast.
