hillocked for the visitors, allowed the
same number of hits and famed two
batters. Kelly issued free transporta-
tion TO three opponents while Hammer
passed but one batter.
Much of the attention of the coach,
Harley. Of Georgetown. was paid to
Kelly, who is a freshman at the Hill
top. He handled himself to the salts
faction OF his tutors. with the exception
of waxing wild occasionally. II is ex-
pected that he will outgrow this as he
becomes more used to his surroundings.
For youngster. his showing was
to the captain, coaches. and
teammates. II is likely that he will be

ALTITUDE IS TOO
MUCH FOR TURNER
Loses Two Straight Falls to
Mike YokeI in Match at Salt
Lake City, Utah.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah. March 20
Mike Yokel Is today claiming the mid
dleweight championship of the world
for the wrestling mat, as a result OF de-
feating Joe Turner. of Washington.
D. c., in two straight falls at the Salt
Lake Theater last night. Followers OF
the game declare that the Mormon City
has never witnessed a more closely con-
tested match than the one which
Turner and Yokel engaged In.
II is the unanimous opinion here that
Turner is the cleverest man who ever
faced Yokel. not excepting Gehrring or
any other who has shown here. The
first fall of las. nights bout came after
S. minutes Of hard work, and the sec
ond down required but minutes. 1t
was evident that Turner was effected
by the high altitude. for after forty-five
minutes Of wrestling the Washing
tonian seemed almost helpless. Forty
Ave minutes is considered an extremely
long time for an athlete unused TO the
high climate to stick to the mat, and
for his endurance Turner made last
ing impression on the Western fans.

FROM PENN STATE
Red and Black Team Jumps on

Scores Three Runs.

Catholic University chalks up its SEQ
ond win Of the season today, having
handed Penn State an s-to-4 defeat at
Brookland yesterday. Those who ex-
pected to sec whitney, the former East
en High School twirler, on the mound
for Penn State were disappointed, but
the popular win of the Red and Black
team more than made up for the failure
Of the Washington lad to appear.
Charlie Moran's charges hoped upon
Wardwell. the Penn State finger, in ap-
proved style. But four balls were
served up by the visiting hurler, and
three Of them were walloped for keeps
Zachary, Hayes. and Donnelly started
OF In great shape. and wardwell was
lifted before the score became lop-
sided.
Penn State had scored twice in the
first session, and managed, to get two
more in the fourth Outside of this,
there was nothing doing. as the Brook
landers made up their minds to win
as they did against Virginia on Monday.
Pipp again starred at the bat for the

DICK SCOFIELD is TO RUN

With the announcement of The Times

nearly the last week. Entries came
flooding In at the last minute. This
year. however, the majority of the men
are in good condition. and send in their

It would seem that the Memorial

likely that these runners will have 70

The all-around swimming champion.
ship of the Nautilus Swimming Club. Of
the Washington Y. NJ. c. A, is con-
ceded to Louis Ansley, who has twenty
nine points to his credit, a lead of seven
over Bamman.
The last events in the semi-montlHy
card which has been in progress at the
association all winter. will be brought
to a close tonight, when the last three
events will be held.
The events to be contested are the
plunge for distance, the 220-yard SWIM
II is anticipated that the former event
will 60 to Drummer, whose record in this
event, made when the club still belonged
TO the A A. L., has never been equaled
in the South Atlantic division. The lat
ter event is conceded to Bamman, who
is regarded as the best distance man
in the club.
The six high men enter this evenings 8
contest with the following number of
points already standing to their credit:
Ansley, q; Bamman, %: Burch, 1917;
Miller. 10: Cults, Il; Eliason, II. First
place is conceded to Ansley, but the sec
ond and third places are Still much In
doubt. as every cne of the five men is
in striking distance of second, and each
stands a good fighting chance for third.

saving home run he knocked in the
final frame Of the game Maryland Agri-
cultural won from Navy. Score, to 2
1t ie the first time the Farmers have
won on the diamond from the Midship-
men. and II is the unanimous opinion
here that the College Park boys put UP
one Of the fastest games that has ever
grounds.
Two men had been called out by Um-
pire Billy Belts when Morris turn came
TO go to the bat. Siebert's third ball
was a slow curve, and Morris swatted
it an awful wallop which sent 1t into
right field. 1t rolled out, and before
Rogers could recover 1t Morris had
made the circuit.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, March 0.-
The Pennsylvania baseball team leaves
for the South tonight in time to reach
Annapolis for the game tomorrow with
the naval cadets. Despite the loss CT
several veterans of last years team,
sufficient old men are left to fill every
position except shortstop. For several
of the positions, however, a hot fight is
being waged between the men OF last
years squad and last years freshmen,
and at present some of the freshmen
are making such a good showing that
they will probably oust some of the old
men fro mthe nine.
The team, after their game tomorrow
with Annapolis will go on to Washing
ton for the most important game of the
southern trip. namely. that with Yale
at American League Park on Monday
Pennsylvania II very anxious to win
