comrades arriving in port on other
vessels to join in the movement
The cause of the strike Is stated to
have been the failure of the company

often said that when my spitbaII was breaking, right 1t is almost impossible bo hit ball out of the infieId.
 Some people think that spitball cannot be hit so it will go far Sam Crawford caught one of my fast spit balls once and drove it over center field fence.
 The best game I ever pitched was against Addie Joss. He allowed not hit. I allowed three scratches and struck out fifteen men. He won, 10. .--, t..;
 The best game I ever pitched T lost
 I pitched a no-hit game against the Red Sox once. and was glad to get admit, to do that, but there is a cer- tain amount of luck in 1t. ...-
 I never worry when am losing. It takes nine innings to win a game, and the game is never over till the last man is out
 My record hard luck was when I went into the game in the ninth in- ming, pitched only one ball. had three runs scored on me, and lost the game. I don't know whether or not that Is the worlds record for hard luck, but if it isn't it ought to be.
 There is no secret about pitching the spitbal1 Many people think there is. but there isn't. It takes speed and practice, that's all

 They say the spitball Is hard on the arm. Clark Griffith told me once wouldn't last long with that delivery. But somehow seem to still be in the game.
 Waltef Johnson has more stuff than have, and I am willing to admit 1t.
 If. I had stuck to speed as he has done, think I could have pitched nearly as fast ball as he does, though am willing to admit that he has something on me there.
 Tn my opinion Johnson ts the speed fest pitcher who ever lived, and he is a mighty fine fellow as well.
 am interested in the newly organ ized baseball players fraternity. So far as I know, it will never be able to help me much, but that Isn't the question. It is up to those of us who are in a position to do 1t, to help those who have not been so fortunate.
 Tn my opinion the baseball players fraternity has a great work to per form, and it can always count upon my support to the best of my ability.
 It takes gilt-edged fielding as we'll as pitching to win a no-hdt contest
 The hardest team in the whole world for me to defeat is Cleveland. Why, I don't know. but it is.
 You never can tell in baseball.
 Fielders may not support a batter right even if they play, errorless ball.
 Many a pitcher is saved by a great catch.
 In no-hit game there is a big eIe- nent of luck.
 It doesn't make any difference how many men get on bases It is those who get across who count.

CARPENTER NOT
 TO FIGHT KLAUS
French Boxer Wisely Decides to Sidestep American
 Slugger

Although somewhat late George Carpentier, the French boxing idol, has at last taken the advice to go slow and has ,sidetracked his match with Frank Klaus. All along the youthful Frenchman has been handi- capped by being overmatched, and the beatings he has received have pre- vented his development. Klaus gave Carpenter severe beating about the body when they met last June. It's effect was noticea ble, for the French man, although a promising youngster at the time, has had little success since.
 Klaus has announced that. he will try and arrange a match with Eddie McGoorty as soon as he arrives in this country The Pittsburger has been in communication with Tom McCarey, the Los Angeles promoter. who has expressed his willingness to stage the affair.
 But McGoorty will probably elect to steer clear of such an ecounter. The weight for Klaus when they were ten tatively matched in California. last year. ut-sine~01len McGoorty has made no ~yues about scaling at 15S rinRside for less dangerous opponents
 However, in view of the poor show ing made by McGoorty of late. if Klaus should entice him into match and win his V4ct ory would be but an empty. honor Apparently all Klaus will have to do when he arrives is to prove that he can make the weight and then he can call himseh cham pion if he so desires.

HARRY PAYNE WHITNEY
 GREAT POLO LEADER JUST Al YEARS OLD

Harry Payne Whitney, who is a member of most of the fashionable sporting clubs of North America and a number in Europe, will celebrate his forty-hrst birthday today. Just now his attention on the coming worlds championship polo series, to be held this Summer, when an English team will again attempt to. capture the Newport Cup, now held by America MT. Whitney will again lead the de- lending team A battle royal of o;ol- lars and pounds, MT. Whitney supply ing the dollars from his weIl-filled and constantly rep1enished coffers, or whatever he keeps his coin in, and the Duke of Westminster putting up the pounds from his equally lavish board, has already developed.
 It was alleged that MT. WhiIney's last visit to England was for the pur-' pose of recruiting more mounts for American team, but this has been de- nied. In any event. there are no good polo ponies availab1 in John Bulls. island for the Duke of Westminster has had for over a year an option on every pony worth having in England. English followers of the game have repeatedly. declared that the failure of Capt EardreSs Eioydss team. to get the cup two years ago was due to poor mounts.
 The Duke of Westminster, in the capacity of anger to the team, will send eighty ponies to America next month. and from that number of carefully picked nags the English team should certainly be able to choose good mounts MT. Whitney exercised a careful supervision over the breeding and training of the pon- ies used in previous matches by the American team, and it is said, will place his dependence in the mounts which carried the American four tc victory in 1911.

ferent. Out on the coast they go 20
 rounds in the big battles and prepare
 accordingly for them. They go through
 a regular course of training and when it is over they take life easy for a
 time, which gives all the muscles a chance to relax and get back into a natural state. They may start slow
 CT in their fights, burt they are more sure as they go along. They do not
 try to rush matters unless the oppor- tunity should present itself. Then, again some of the clubs hold four round bouts out west, but they are so short that the boxers do not have to over-exert themselves, as they would be obliged to do in contest of eight or ten rounds. When a boxer is nov ing along at a rapid rate for ten rounds he certainly uses up his vttaI- ity as much as in a marathon match, where he would work much slower The short bouts are all right, but the boxers should use some judgment and not try to work so often. That Is what, kills them off before their time TO my way of thinking boxer should never try to fight oftener than onca a week. that Is in bouts of eight or ten rounds, and even two weeks apart would be still better, for it would give them more chance to recuperate prop erly and not keep up a constant strain Of. the nerves

WELSH TOO FAST
 FOR AL KETCHEL
English Champion Gives Great Exhibition Before Crowded
 House
@ wagner)

After seeing Freddy Welsh in action at the Park City rink last night you can easily see why he is lightweight champion of England Australia and way stations. In his little ten round argument with Al KetcheI the Eng lishman showed enough speed and sci ence to put in cold storage for the summer months. Tn baseball parlance he had everything. He had it all over Ketchel like a tent and the verdict was handed to him on a platter.
 Welsh has been in this country about two weeks and during that per- 1od no American lightweight has sum- moned up enough courage to meet him. He came to this city last night to pick up some easy money but he probably had a harder time than he expected.
 Some of the fans thought .Ketche1 would be aved by Welsh's reputation and would be afraid to mix 1t with the Britisher. They were mistaken in this, however. The local boy didn't appear the least bit scared and be rushed at Welsh from the tap of the gong Ketchel was willing enough but Welsh. was too clever.
 The Englishman knew all the tricks of the trade. He used his left most of the-tirna- and had no trouble stick ing that over on Ketchel's face. Ketchal landed few body blows but was seldom able to follow up his leads Welsh's fast footwork his quick ducking and blocking prevented Al from doing any damage.
 Welsh devoted the first two rounds to sizing up Ketchel After he had sampled the local boys stock he fought att closer quarters. Al was outpointed1 in all the ten rounds. He was in fiHescondition, though, and was not hurt by Welsh'a jabs. At the 1n- ish he was just as strong as when 77a afa &ed Ife nd there was a cut over his eye but oth- erwise- heswas unmarked.
 The most exciting event of the ev- ening was the battle between Kid Pa Waterbury. PatHtz is the boy who has twice conquered Bunny Ford. He has improved lately and last night showed too much c1everness for Lewis. He c1outed the Waterbury boy repeat edly with his left and reduced him to such a state of helplessness that Lewis sank to the floor in the eighth and was carried to his corner. The boys weighed 142 pounds.
 Tommy Ginty, who was scheduled to go on with Bunny Ford of New Ha- ven failed to put in an appearance Tommy is i'll with pneumonia. The crowd did not take kindly to the an- nouncement- Freddy Bosse of this city was substituted for Ginty. He was over the building line Tn front and gave a tame exhibition with Ford The crowd laughed and xlaistied the Merry Widow waltz. Referee Dave Fitzgerald stopped the bout in the sixth after Bosse was cut a little and appeared all in.
 There was crowd of about 4,000 present and the throng was well ham died. Referee Fitzgerald was very eff f7cient and Joe Humphreys did we'll aG timekeeper. Frank Braithwaite acted as announcer but did not recite any roetry.

SAYS TOE HOLD
 SHOULD BE BARRED
Dr. Ben Roller Declares It Is
 BarbarOus and Cruel

Although he is forced to resort to it's use, mainly because the other fellow does, pr. Ben F. Roller the Chicago physician, is firmly convinced that the toe hold should be abolished in yrest- ling. It is the toe hold that made Frank Gotch famous and a worlds champion.
 When it sprang into use wrestIers throughout the country at once recok- nized it as one of the most effective holds that had ever been devised TO force mans shoulders to the mat The peculiar leverage obtained was sufficient to break a. m ans leg if car ried to the limit and while the accf-s dents because of it's use have not been conspicuous for their mum Der. ft ia about one of the most unaddenira holds a man cah use. l.~.
 Roller believes that he has a guard for the toe hold and that he can break It at certain stages For three years he puzzled over 1t and then finally one day discovered a method to break it. That there's a guard for every vvregt- ling hold known Z. 1s v d svveil-Knog,1 grappler's a1Iton and FtofIer;y ses4ng that the toe hold was bound to come into extensive use, set about finding it's remedy. This he believes, he has dis covered and although this knovyfedge is carefully guarded like any other professional secret, Roller is firmly convinced that the toe hold should be placed in the same category as the strangie hold
 T firmly believe that the wrestling fraternity throughout the United States should co-opePate in. an at- tempt to abolish the toe hold for ali tirne," said Roller the' other night.
 Practically every wrestler in the country would be glad enough to have 1t legisIated out of the book fit were possible, but since Frank Gotch is champion and a champion can do practically as he pleases, there seems little chance that the toe hold will be discarded. Anyone with champion ship aspirations must have this hold in his repertoire along with its guard It is the one hold that all these wresr- 1ers dread and some of them are well worth the trouble of going after Gotch's titIe.o

YALE ATHLETIC
 TEAM LOSES THREE
Stewart, Harbison and Oler Laid
 Up by Injuries

New Haven, Conn. April 2s.-In opening the week before Yale's first track meet of the season 1t was learned yesterday that three of the leading mem bers of the tean-Hugh Harbison, Wesley Oler and Jack Stew art-would not compete in the sched- uled events.
 Stewart, who is the best half-niler in college, Is engaged in some faculty technicalfty and has left tse team. Harbison has light fever and has gone to the college inf1rmary. He had been chosen as football guard last Fall, when he was compelled to leave the team because of a sprained ankle. So far as Is known he is the only Yale athlete to be barred from two athletic teams during a single season by illness or injury. Harbison was the best shot-putter on the team.
 The third athlete Is Wesley Oler, Olympic team winner of the high jump. He is captain of the freshman team. He slightly injured his leg two weeks ago, and Coach Mack has decided to take no chances with him, but to keep him from the dual meets with the Harvard and Princeton freshmen in order to have him in shape for the international game with Oxford and Cambridge in July.

IDEAL FOOD FOR PASTORS
Preachers Urged to Eat Apples, Cab
 bage and Onions.

Pittsburgh, April 29-Urged to eat a little meat and plenty of peas, beans and eggs, sixty local ministers took off their coats today and tried to touch fingers to the floor without bending the knees. Few succeeded. but pro- gress was noted by a lecturer from Berkeley, Cal, who came here to tell Pittsburgh preachers "how to get well and stay well.'
 '~The food for a laborfng man must be different from the food for a pro- fessional man. 1t was stated. Every minister ought to eat at least two ap- ples a day and plenty of cabbage You must eat onions, too.''

HOME RUN BY DARTMOUTH
 BEATS CORNELL TEAM

Ithaca, N. Y, April 29-A home-run drive by KimbaH in the sixth inning gave Dartmouth a victory over Cor nell in yesterdays game. which the Hanover team won by the score of 1 to 0. Butler, playing in center field, Tnisfudged the hit and did not run out for it. The ball went over the track for a circuit drive. Johnson, for Cor nell, pitched a strong game, but the inability of his teamrna tes to bat proved the undoing of the Cornell team. The field was in poor condition owing to the heavy fal1 of rain, but in spite Of this stie contest proved highly iRtexest1nE.
