this country. the prisoner is
driven into making discriminating

| Still. the prisoner here need not.

from inIlicting their inquisition.
That this practice has grown tc

to the complacent nature OF the
American people. The troubles

JACK KNIGHT MAY PLAY
AGAINST GEORGETOWN TO-DAY
Griffith Has Not Decided Where He Will
Use Former Yankee Youngsters
to Be Weeded Out Soon.

I are in splendid form and when so are not
of the kind to be hit hard. But the team
| has not rolled up any encouraging batting
averages against less competent twirlers.
Early in the spring ball players are slow
to get in their batting stride. Their eyes
are not trained to gauge the ball and
their hands are tender. so that it inter-
feres with their holding the bat properly.
Griffith. however. is not discouraged over
the batting slump. He contends that 1t
is to be expected this early in the year.
but hes looks for constant improvement
before the season opens.
Though it was 1 o'clock this morn
Ing before the train bringing the Ma

ball park this morning at 1880 for prac-

Georgetown University Will Meet
Chestertown Eleven Next Fall.

Last evening Manager Loichot Of the
Georgetown University foot ball team
announced that he had completed ar
engagements with Washington College to
play on the Hilltop next fall-November
Q. This game. coming on that date, draws
the Blue and Gray foot ball schedule for
next season very near its completion, as
there now remains but one date to be
filled by the Hilltop manageable I'd of
November. The latest game to be an
nounced on the local university list Of
gridiron dates for the coming campaign
will fall Immediately before the George
town Virginia game. and in all proba-
bility the local management could not
have arranged a game with any other
college that would have fitted this place
on the schedule. The Chestertown lads
will not be expected to be successful
rivals Of the Westenders, not even by the
most interested followers of the Maryland
college. but the game should prove SUM-
cient to put Georgetown on good edge for
the battle with Virginia that follows

GIBBONS A WIZARD
Easily Defeats Jack Denning in
a WhirIWind Bout.
SHOWS WONDERFUL SKILL
In and Out Like a Flash, the St.
Paul Boxer Has Things All
His Own Way.
SHOWS WONDERFUL SKILL

NEW YORK, March 27.-Once more
Mike Gibbons. the St. Paul phantom,
showed himself the master of Jack Den
ming. the local middleweight. in the ring
of the Falrmont Athletic Club last night
in a fast ten-round bout. After several
seconds of sparring in the opening round.
in which Denning missed badly, Mike
left an opening. and Denning landed the
first blow-a light left on the face More
sparring followed, but although Den
ming did the landing, the ST. Paul man
had the better of the exchanges at close
range A snappy uppercut bobbed Dem
nng's head and a similar blow opened
cut in Jacks lip. 1t was seen. even then
that, barring an accident, Gibbons would
win.
Feinting and fiddling, the St Paul man
came up for the second round, and he
poked his left into Denning's face The
latter tried to take the lead, but Glib
bons laughed and slipped away from the
punches Presently Gibbons tired of
blocking. and. like the crack of a lash,
landed the left hand
At each punch Dennings III az Hoped
back. and a right to the jaw had him in
momentary distress. At close range Glib
bons jolted the body with a we'll timed
right. He was easily the master. and it
seemed that he could win as he pleased.
y left jab and a hard right Jolt to the
body greeted Denning in the third round
and Gibbons kept forcing the pace. In
and out the speedy ST. Paul boy was
blocking the left hand leads with his
glove lie landed when he pleased, and
mad the situation under control.
Denning opened the fourth round with
HIS usual miss. ami Ike
shot left 10 the nose. Gibbons backed
away. and. following in, the New York
lad hooked right to the body That
blow reused Gibbons and he tore at his
man in earnest. Lead after lead followed
and DenninS weakened under the furious
assault He staggered under left on the
chin. and a similar blow sent him rceling
The machine-like Gibbons went in and,
after renting his man. crashed a right
hook on the jaw. Denning fell. He was
beaten and hurt but with great courage
he got up at the count of nine anu lasted
the round out.
The fifth and sixth rounds We're slow
and Gibbons was soundly hooted fer not
trying TO win. Mike smiled and fidgrted
around. but he made little or no effort to
box. AS result Denning gained strength
and was fresher at theseventlI round than
he was at the start of the fifth.
I'm the seventh round, however. Gibbons
woke up. and Denning came by the cud-
gels again. Nike sailed right into him
and. placing his punches with great ac =
curacy. soon had Denning in distress. The
latter, however. found time 10 land a
hard right uppercut on the head, but
he was outclassed and being battered by
Il better man.
For few moments in the final rOuad
Dennins flashed. hut Gibbons dominated
and really won as he pleased
A big crowd packed the hall and shout

PHILADELPHIA. March 21-Alfred
De Orc. the worlds champion pocket bill
liardist, defeated William Wilson Of
Hackensack. n. j., last night in the ma
uonal championship tourney by the score
of $50 to 80. In the afternoon, Charles

rather-long-drawn out game won from

The contest in the evening plainly DEM
onstrated that as pocket billiard player,
De Orc, the Cuban expert, is in a class by
himself. He not only ran $50 balls in
one hour and twenty minutes, but under
the new rules. leaving the fifteenth ball
upon the table. he gathered in a high
run of 46. In almost every instance he
left the fifteenth bail close enough TO the
bunch 10 give him the opportunity to
make the break after pocketing the ball.
The game between King and Weston
developed early into a question of safety
play. in which the cowboy had the bet
ter of all the breaks and was accorded
hearty applause for his clever work In
the first 100 the score stood Weston 100.
King, 81, but from that point the New
Yorker rapidly dropped behind, missing
many easy shots which should have put
him in the running. The games in de-

showed much better form in their second

they did in the first. The pitching was
more or less responsible for that, though,
as Swarthmore had it's best man in the

If Davis. the Georgetown third base

be able to hold down a job in the big

playing professional ball right now who
