ANSON IN HERO ROLE
Leads Forlorn Hope Against
the Giants, But Shows
He Is no Has Been

New York, April Alt was dis
tinctly day for the old-t timers at the
Polo grounds yesterday, and about 500
pounds of veterans numbered about the
lot. while the Giants were beating Ad-
rian c. Anson's Colts from Chicago by
the score of to 1. In the heavy
weight crowd were Pop" Arson and on
a rough guess he must have contributed
over $50 pounds, while Dan" Brouth-
ers was by No means trained too fine,
and Robinson looked to be over the
225- pound limit.
Cap" Arson was the hero Of the day
and the small crowd took off its col
lective hat to the old giant. To show
that he has not yet reached the has
been" class in spite of his 5S years
he walloped out wo-bagger the sec
ond time he went to bat, and, if he
could have passed his legs by eacf
other a trihe faster he might have
reached third, for the hit was a Ions
one down the left field foul line.
AS for the game itself 1t was easy
| Fred Tenney broke up the affair in the
third inning when he smashed out {
clean home run over short stop will
the bases full. This was the first scor

HOW THE MEN SIZE UP.

For the first time since he wrested
the heavyweight wrestling champion
ship of the world from George Hack
enschmidt, just a few days more than
one year ago, Frank Gotch will defend
his title tonight, his opponent being the
sturdy Turk, Yussiff Mahmout
The contest will take place in the
same Dexter Park arena wherein
Gotch won his laurels, and as much
interest seems to center IN the out
come as in the noted bout of April a
twelvemont hago. Every detail has
been arranged for the clash, save only
the point of whether Mahmout shall
be compelled to wear shoes or not.
That this matter will be adjusted is
the belief of the promoters. Mahmout
prefers to wrestle in his bare feet, as
he has done in all of his bouts here
Gotch wants him to wear shoes, as that
gives him a better hold for his noted
toe grip. The leverage obtainable
through grasping the comparatively
rigid end of a shoe is considered a de-
cided advantage by the champion.
Turk Works in Bare Feet.
Mahmout wrestles in his bare feet as
matter of custom and has paid lit
Tie need 10 the opinion OF HIS HldQdS-
er that Gotch will be less able to get
a grip on a bare foot, slippery with
perspiration. than on a leather shoe
The only reason the Turk prefers to
continue wrestling without shoes is be-
cause his bare feet give him a frmer
grip on the mat.
Refere Ed Smith held a conference
with the men yesterday. but the mat
ter of fotgear was not adjusted. Under
the rules named in the articles Of
agreement Gotch has the right to in
sist that the Turk wear shoes, for rule
/ so provides. The matter is largely
| technical, and it may be adjusted by
Yussiff DOMINIC very light gymnasium
shoes for the occasion. The men will
weigh about the same when they enter
the ring, and it is believed each will
scale in the neighborhood of 1871
pounds Gotch may be a few pounds
heavier.
Mahmout does not come here with
the exaggerated European ecord OF
which Hackenschmidt boosted yeal
ago. but he has shown his quality or

A. A. OPEN SEASON

Milwaukee. Wis. April IL - The
American association season will lopen
today with every team in the best pos
sible condition and able to deliver the
best quality of ball ever seen in the
minor leagues The western group in
the American association is touted as
the stronger. but it is noted here that
the easter nclubs have been making
better showings against the big league
teams in exhibition games than the
western group. The Milwaukee team
opens at home against St Paul and
Minneapolis plays at Kansas City. To-

Bowerman hasn't added much new ma

promising, and a couple of pitchers.
A place in the first division is a pos
sibility with a well-season element in

man at third base than he was last
season and Beck handles himself as IL
he ultimately would be the regular
first baseman.
The team should be far stronger in
pitchers and catchers than in 1908, for
Bowerman not only is in first-olass
shape again, but Graham will show
the benefit of last years experience.
The team should be faster in the field
than in 1908.

responsibilities that have been
thrust upon my shoulders by Presi-

leader of the White Sox team for the
coming season and 1 am not going

1t will be n hard thing to fill Field
Jones' shoes, burt j am willing to
give my best efforts to the work.
The Sox are not weaker this year
than they were last year, despite the
loss of Jones. If Jones were with
us this year we would walk away
with the flag. We are going to win
1t without him, for the new men that
we have added to the team this
spring are all corners and will
strengthen us fully 20 per cent.
