GIANTS MAKE 29 HITS
 AGAINST TExARKANA TEAM

Texarkana, Ark, March 26.- Should tEe Giants tumble into bat ting slump in an important series this summer, their thoughts probably will revert to certain spring day on the training trip, when they made twenty nine bingles and twentysix runs. Hits and runs came easy here yesterday, the Champions galloping away from the Texarkana South Central League outfit by score of 26 to 3.
 Fifty-one times the Giants were of- ficially at bat, and their damage with the bludgeon was represented by fif- teen singles, nine double, four triples and one homer. Every member of the team made one or more runs in- |cluding Rube Marquard, who was turned over to the enemy in the last two innings to stop the slaughter. Ev- erybody made hit except Arthur Shafer, who appeared at bat only twice
 Murray and Merkle each contribu- ted four hits, while Burnss Doyle and Fletcher made three apiece. Burns really was the leading batter of the day, as he made his three hits in three times up. Two of the Utica re- cruit's safeties were doubles.

Mike Gibbons And
 Denning Box Tonight
Winner of Bout Will be in Line For Middleweight Champion
 ship

When Mike Gibbons and Jack Dem ming finish their ten-round bout to- night at the Fairmont A. C., New York. the middleweight championship muddle will have been cleared up to a great extent. The winner can safely acclaim himself the real title defender. and If any rival disputes his corlten- tion he must come and battle for the crown.
 There is no doubt but that Gibbons and Denning are the two class est mtddleweights in the business. Gib- bons is considered the cleverest man of his weight that has struck Gotham since the days of Cans, Dixon and Walcott. He possesses science to a remarkable degree and also is equip ped with the punch.
 The only blot on his escutcheon was when Denning outpOinted him by a slight margin. Gibbons intends to re- move this mark this evening. To make, no mistakes, Mike has trained faithfully and is in the pink of condi- tion. Denning has been just as per- severing and will enter the ring in superb shape.
 The battle is really of championship calibre, for the winner will cnly have to beat the victor of the McGoorty- Klaus match to be the undisputed holder Of the middleweight title.

FOOTBALL PRACTICE AT
 YALE STARTS NEXT WEEK

Head Coach Art Howe of the Yale football squad expects to have the candidates for the team out for tho regular spring practice by the first part of the coming week. It was ex- pected to have the football candidates out for practice this week, but the recent fall of snow. followed by heavy rain.s has put the field in poor condi- ton. When the time comes for prac- tfce the men will have two weeks of light work. Captain Jesse Spalding fully realizes the fact that the line problem will be harder to solve than a year ago. and he is on the lookout for big men.
 The Harvard football candidates were to have started their spring practice yesterday, but rain and snow put a damper on their plans They will start either today or tomorrow

CARL MORRIS FOOLISH
 TO PISS S13,0OO OFFER

New York, March 26.-Carl Morris probably regrets the fact that he de- clined an offer of $13,O0O to meet Albert Palzer at the National Sporting Club The Madison Square and Empire A C.'s also offered similar chances for the mill with no chance to secure Pal zer's consent.
 Morris poor showing against Jim Stewart Wednesday night convinced ring critics that he would not stand any sort of a chance in a clash with Tom O'Rourke's fighter. The conclu- clusion also was drawn that Morris never will have another opportunity to meet Palzer or any other big man for a s130OO purse at local club.
 Morris, 1t is thought, has reached his limit He knows little or nothing about scientific boxing. Although won- derfully strong and game, he cannot master the art of hard hitting. He has one style, rfght-hand uppercut or hook to the body and left that is both weak and inaccurate. Stewart

JUST THREE YEARS AGO TODAY
 MITCHELL PUT 0'BRIEN AWAY

Willus Britt was always consider ed an able manager and clever coach CT of fighters, but there was one oc- casion when he showed that he had picked the wrong line of dope. That was three years ago today. when the late Stanley Ketchel fought "Phila- delphia Jack "OBrien in New York. Britt was Ketchel's manager, and for the first eight rounds of the memorable battle Stanley followed the directions of Willus and Jimmy Britt, with the result that he was made a chopping block for the clever iladelphian, wh o was prompted by Tony Riddle, the millionaire gentleman pugilist" of the Quaker City. and Kid Mccoy, the great master of ring strategy. When the bell tapped for the ninth round, Ketch- el, whose head was bloody but un- bowed,'' determined to follow his own
 tactics, and the tide of battle was quickly changed. O'Brien and his ad- visers found an entirely different man in the ring. Ketchell tore out of his

All Odell Makes Three Baggel When Former Mechanic
 Pitches

Atlanta. March 26.-Young pitchers of the Highlanders made good show ing yesterday in a game with the At lanta team, which game the New Yorks won to 5. Still Messrs. Mar tin, Upham and Hoff performed with becoming effectiveness and kept Man ager HemphilIs robust Crackers from tingling the ball to any great extent. The only tingling of consequence done by the Crackers was off Upham in the sixth inning, in which isolated round three hits were made and the Crackers did all their scoring.
 E. Martin, who had curve with a quick break and nifty speed, more speed than some pitchers would risk using on such cold day, started off. and the Crackers, with one exception, were shorn of hits as fast as they came up. Upham was all right ex- cept in one inning and Hoff held the foe hitless for his two innings. Al Odell made three bagger. Upham famed three and passed one.

e N corner like a wild man running amuclx, and smashed the startled and even frightened O'Brien right and left. A terrible wallop to the jaw sent Jack down for the count of nine. Tn the tenth round the Phfladelphian soon went down again, and wasn't in any rush about getting up. When he did it was only to be met with another ter rife swing, which sent him to the floor again, sprawlfng and all but uncon- scious. He was good for a count of a hundred, but when Referee Tim Hurst had reached ''six" the bell rang, so the knockout didn't count. That fight was attended by more 'howling swells'' than ever before Or since in New York, and dress suits and chug- chug wagons were much in evidence. Most of the "tony sports had planted their kale on O'Brien, but the finish had been so exciting that they were glad to lose their coin. Later in the same year O'Brien and Ketchel fought again, and Jack was knocked cold in the third round.

Mike MoWrey May
 Leave St. Louis
Manager Bresnahan Disgusted With His H0ldOut and Will
 Use Steinfeldt at Third

. Jackson, Miss, March 2S.-Harry Michael. Mowrey has played his last game with the St. Louis Cardinals. The holdout third basemal now is launched upon basebalPs auction block. and will be traded to the highest bidder by Manager Roger Bresnahan.
 Several deals are in the air, and Roger hopes to swing one that will bring a third baseman, pitcher or an outfielder to his troupe.
 The statement that Mowrey would be shipped elsewhere was made by Bresnahan in this tone:
 "Mowrey will not be with the Car dinals this season if I can arrange a suitable trade. I want every Ma tional league club to know ths, and the manager that offers me the best bid can have him.
 "If I can't get a third baseman for Mowrey, then Waffle Smith or Harry Steinfeldt will get the job,'' continued Bresnahan, in his talk upon the Now rey subject. Smith is developing fast, and I believe will be one of the best third basemen in the league. And then I will have Steiny to fall back on."

Dixie Walker is the first of the Mechanics to report for the season of 1912. The tall finger blew into town this morning carrying the old carpet bag. He spent the winter at his home in Philadelphia and announces that he is in great shape and ten pounds heavier than last season. ''The old spring fever has got me- ; said Dixie as he swapped handshakes with Manager McCann at the Atlantic hotel. My arm feels fine and I'm just waiting for the bell to ring" Last season Walker was the leagues lead ing pitcher with a record of IS won and five lost. He did not do so well in the closing weeks of the campaign a good start this year he ought to hold his own with any of the league fingers. Dixie expects his wife and child to arrive in this city in few days. He said he was travelling light this trip. 'I have 53 articles in my able pride. "A pack of cards and an extra necktie."
 Manager McCann received word this morning from the Lynn club that the New England leaguers would be here April and for their exhibi- tion date.
