at Troxler's Central Institute last
night ended In a draw.
Both boys style of fighting favored
the big crowd Of spectators who were
on hand. n they were given a warm
reception on leaving the ring. Chand-
Ter started things in his favor through
out the first round. He shook his OPP
ponent around at times, and although
he seldom missed his punch none of
his wallops were of the knockout order.
Malta came back in the next two ses-

stiff punches to the ear. He got in
several jaw wallops, but he, too, didn't
seem to carry the "stowaway" wallop.

therefore, is not a holdout. This spikes

Dry Land Today.
There was much more dry land out at
the Petersburg ball park when the ter
rapins arrived for the morning warm
up today and the temperature was
higher than yesterday, making the boys
feel much more risky. Three men,
bers Of the squad received minor in
juries in yesterdays workout. but not
serious enough to hinder them from
engaging in today's practise.
Enos kirkpatrick stopped a line drive
on his thumb and WINGED with pain.
but luckily the digit was not twisted
out OF shape nor broken.
1t was badly swollen last night, but
a soothing lotion reduced the swelling
and Kirk was back on the Job at short,
picking them up as lively as ever,
though he was very careful of the sore
member.
Bernard Hit Two. Too.
Curt Bernard was stung on the left
arm by a line foul while he was tossing
the ball back and forth with McAdams.
Luckily the ball hit his left arm o II 1t
might have put his throwing wing on

where the ball struck was black and
blue and Doc could barely swing a bat
in practise today.
Holmes's sore Arm.
Quickly Holmes has developed a
very fine sore arm. The muscles have
frightened up and the wing Is as stiff as
an alabaster statue. Holmes did not
try to throw the ball. but batted out
fungoes and chased flies to taxi off
some of the surplus weight which he
still ships.A
Lush Want Yates.
Manager Lush, of the Montreal Club,
has asked Joe McGinnity to give him
first crack if Dave Yates is let out.
Lush had been in communication with
Yates for some time prior to the date
on which Joe McGinnity made him an
offer, and he was on the point Of ac-
cepting the Montreal offer when he
heard from the Newark Club.
1t is Yates's ambition to play ball
long enough to arm money to COM
plete a course in ~osteopathy. and he
has three more years to go. His
brother Bob. who played with the
Phillies and Cards. has quit pitching to
follow the dentist profession.
