warm CONTESTS FOR
AAICHET|TES' MEET
Good Men Entered in All the
Events Carded for Sat-
urday Night.

Looking over the list OF entries for the
George Washington meet in Convention
Hall Saturday night it can easily be seen
that good men representing local and out
Of-town colleges and schools are entered
in each event thus insuring the spectator
a run for his money. IN previous indoor
carnivals the majority Of classy athletes
have competed in but few events, but not
so in this meet.
Take the various events right down the
line. In the fifty-yard scholastic are
Fritz Reuter-. Cullum and Fisher of Cen
Thrall OF Technical. Crane Of Cathedral
School and Patterson of Baltimore City
College.
In the ifty-yard open handicap hurdles
are such sterling college cracks as HOr-
rax of Johns Hopkins and Holiday of
Virginia.
Even in the ftfty-yard scholastic hurdles
George Hamilton of Central. Gpman OF
Western and Pippin OF Baltimore City
College are all strong men.
The high jump shows Holiday of Viz
2inia. Horrax of Hopkins and Curtis of
Tome. while the shotput. with twenty-five
entries. includes such we'll known weight
fingers as Cecil OF Virginia. Spransy o.
Army and Navy Props, Weber of Catho-
lie University and others.
Mike Murphy. Pennsy's trainer. has
again changed his mind about Billy Paul.
the champion indoor one miller. Paul will
only be seen In action on the relay team.
while Pennsy will be represented in the
mile race by Wolfe and Boyle. both of
whom have made fast time in their trials.
Other athletes who will toe the mark for
the one mile are Dyson Of Central. Beirne
Of Virginia. Moran and Hunter of West
ern High and Cucley OF the Washington
Cross Country Club.
In the fiftyyard novice the largest en-
try list appears. All the local high schools.
Washington and Baltimore Y. NJ. G.. As
and Washington Grove Athletic Assoc ia
ton will present their youngsters, many
of whom are In action for the first time
in a meet Of this kind.
Thus all along the line every race and
nearly every heat will show an athlete
OF ability and class. The idea of doping
out q winner or winners is out of the
question. and spectators will see the best
arranged. best managed set of games in
| the history of the sport at George Wash

GOSSIP OF LOCAL
AMATEUR ATHLETES

One thing that should be closely looked
after in the indoor meets held in this Sec
ton is thu wearing of spikes. While in
every meet there are officials whose duty
it is to watch out for those who are try
irg to evade the rules by wearing the
pieces of iron in their shoes. it is never
theless a fact that few Of those who
do wea" them are detected. not because
Of any unfaithfnlness on the part of the
officials. but because the shoes are in
spected at the wrong time. When a team
or man makes its or his first appear
ance on the floor is when the INSPECTOR
runs his hand across the sole of the
athletes shoe. Now. the fact of the
matter is. this: A great many runners have
spikes in their shoes. and it is. in fact. a
common practice, and over the spikes
is stuck a thin piece CT rubber. This
rubber bears the weight of runner while
walking out on the floor. and when an
inspectors hand runs over the bottom of
the shoe there seem to be no spikes. but
before the runner has covered twenty
wards of his race the nails have been
driven through the rubber and are helping
him wonderfully by preventing slipping
etc. Now. If the inspectors would in
spect. the runners shoes after race. rath-
er than before 1t. there would be no doubt
about his ability to detect anything that
looked like spike.

NO RELAY FOR VIRGINIA.
Southerners Will Probably Not Send
Four TO G.. w. u. Games.

1t is not very probable that Virginia
will he represented by relay team in
the George Washington meet Saturday
night For one thing. the southerners do
not seem to want to run any team of
their recognized standing. and if they
did it would be rather difficult to secure
match for them, as each of the big
teams against which they were to be
pitted has been unable to send a four for
one reason or another.
1t was at first thought that Virginia
would be matched with Cornell and then
Columbia was picked out, but it has de-
veloped that neither of the big schools
will be represented. AS Manager Keats
would not place the Orange and Blue
four against smaller college. there
seems little likelihood Of its being seen
in action Saturday night.

Corbett Yesterday.
The story that Johnson had agreed to
lay down and then a few days before the
fight sent word that he intended to fight
to win, thus causing Jeffries to have a
nervous breakdown. is absurd. continued
the former champion. THE only COM
munication we received from the Johnson
camp was his request to split the purse.
which was finally compromised on a GO
and 40 per cent basis. There was nothing
prearranSed about the fight. but, OF
course, when Jeff lost after most every
one had picked him to win, it was but
natural that a lot of stories of frame-up
and fakes should be started.

reflect credit on him. 1t took him four

that crowd at Reno that de" who could
not have whipped Jeffries. yet it took our
present champion fourteen rounds to do
the trick. and. as / said before. there was
not moment of that time that Johnson
could not land on jeff where and when
he pleased.
Best of Bad Lot.
johnson is the best of a very bad lot
OF fighters-that's why he is champion.
To begin with there is but one way he
can fight and that is to have the fight
brought to him. He is f1atfooted and
cannot follow an opponent. but is right
good at infghting. and it was in this
way that he did damage in his fight with
Jeff. I had him sized up right when l
cabled jeff from England before the ar
ticles were signed not to allow hitting in
the clinches for L realized that JEFF was
not much at this style of battling, but
my advice was not Needed.
Now. YOU have heard much of how
Johnson got back at me for kidding him.
Well. the truth of the matter is that he said
but one thing to me during the entire
fight and that was when I referred TO
his yellow streak he said. That's what
they all say Yet all sorts of yarns
have been printed as to what he said to
me during the fight. l tell you. they

and who is believed to traverse the

Friday and passed a worthless che tx

merchant at 272 Hallett street.

of Martin Petras, for $S5, upon the

the check in payment for purchase

only to the amount of $11.55. The
balance was left to the credit of Pet

have had opportunity to bank the
paper.
Stempel told the police Petras was

WIFE SACRIFICES
HONOR To SAVE
HUSBANDS LIFE
(Special from United Press. !


Albany, April 26-Rather than have
the fact that his wife had dishonored
him disclosed to the world Charles L..
Green, a farmer of New Scotland, this
county, was willing to go to the cleo
trio chair.
This developed, yesterday, when Gov
ernor Dix granted a sixty day respite
to Green who was to have been cleo
trocuted in prison, next week. The
respite is to permit attorneys for
Green to move for a new trial on the
ground of newly discovered evidence.
Green killed his daughter at their
home, last June, and at the same time
terribly wounded his wife. He refus-
ed to tell anything about the crime.
when an effort was made by his
friends a few days ago to have his
ment he positively refused to sign the
application.
Today, the real reason was learned.
In an affidavit signed by Mrs. Green
who is still suffering from the wounds
her husband inflicted, she said that
the cause of the shooting was the
discovery by her husband that she
had been unfaithful to him.
The daughter tried to save her and
was herself killed. In the affidavit
Mrs. Green says that her husband had
commanded her to tell nothing about
the cause of the tragedy.
He refused to permit the affidavit
says, me to take the stand and testi-
fy to anything that would help him
and hurt me. He told me he would
rather die in the electric chair than
single word against my character. I
feel that, in a way, I am responsible
for all that he has done and that the
burden rests heavily upon me-"
