Joe Turner Wins in
Two Straight Falls

Displaying the greatest endurance
that has been seen on a local wrestling
match, ice Turner and John KiIonis
wrestled for two hours and fourteen
minutes before the fomer gained the
first fall. Opinions expressed today by
experts indicate that no match con-
tested in this city has ever revealed
30 much endurance coupled with clever
wrestling as was seen last night at
the Gayety Theater. Turner also gained
the second fall, after an intermission
of ten minutes had been allowed. This
fall came after five minutes OF strenu-
GUS graphing by both athletes.

the probable aggressor before the match

BAT AND IN FIELD
Old FaIIacy Is Disproved
BY the Records of the Pres
ent-Day HurIers.

CLEVELAND, March 29.-Now and
then some baseball manager or writer
comes before the public with the sug.
gestion that the pitchers be relieved OF
the formality Of batting, arguing tina,
most Of the pitchers are deuces in the
art of batting. anyway. and should be
allowed to stick to their department OF
the game-attempting to deceive the bat.
ters.
You do not hear this argument quite
as often as in the days gone by. for the
simple reason that the pitchers them
selves are exploding the theory tina,
they cannot connect with the twists OF
their adversaries. Take the really good
pitchers and you will find that few OF
them confine their efforts to pitching.
The star pitchers are real all-around
players. They do not depend entirely
upon the cunning and strength of their
salary arms. They know how to field.
and do field with skill They know how
to bat. and demonstrate their ability
along that line when put to the test.
Lead American League.
Joe Wood led the American League
pitchers in victories. He batted .29o,
his hits including thirteen doubles, a
triple and home run. He made but
four errors in forty-three games. Eddie
Flank, who lost but six games, rank
ing next to Wood. batted 267 and field
cd without an error. Walter Johnson,
the pitching marvel hit .264, six dou-
h-ss four triples and two homers going
~ his credit. He also fielded his po-
sition splendidly. Jack Coombs, who
won twenty-one and lost ten games
5atted .2a5 and did not make a fielding
error. Jean Dubuc. Of the Tigers. led
his teammates ia victories, batted .Zl6
and erred but three times Mcconnell
of the Yankees, hit .297, while Russell
Ford batted 80. The two led the
Yankee hurlers in victories. Ford was
also among the leaders in fielding. Fred
Blanding was the Maps most consistent
winner; He fielded eXcellently and bat
ted well. Ed Walsh was another who
helped himself out by his own bat
ting, aS did George Mullin. of Detroit.
Chief Bender Is also in the list.
Starred In Field.
Hendryx. the leading pitcher in the
National League. led the Beavers in
fielding and batted 80, his collection
OF drives including ten doubles, six
triples and one four-sacker Mathew
son. Crandall. Wiltse. Camnitz, Ruck-
er. Brennan and Marquard also batted
we'll and ranked high as nelders as
well.
1t goes to show that class tells. Had
Joe Wood. Russell Ford. Ed Walsh.
HendryX, Walter johnson. Coombs or
Plank elected TO play some other po-
sition. the chances are that he would
have succeeded, providing he had
brought the same energy to bear upon
his work that he devoted to pitching.
Perhaps the country was robbed of L
great second sacker when Joe Wood be-
carne pitcher. Perhaps a grand third
bascman went to waste when Jean
Dubuc picked out the box as the soft
est spot on the team Who knows but
that Christy Mathewson might havo

CAUSE OF TROUBI F
Action of Ann Abor College to Return to Big Nine Threatens
war-wiN Have To concede Much Before They
Can Be Reinstated

CHICAGO. ILL.,, March 29.-Another
long "big nine" war, with Michigan
as the center OF action was predicted
yesterday at the University Of Chi
cago following the announcement Of
the Michigan's board decision to sue
Cor readmission into the Western
Conference. The Midway professors de-
clared that the Ann Harbor school
could not be taken into the fold again
without a complicated series Of meet
ings and that the old relations could
not be restored before next fall at
the earliest.
The Midwayites were surprised to
learn that the Michigan board had
and declared that the move might yet
be stopped by the board Of regents.
The Maroon members believe Michi-
gan will be slow to grant the conces-
sions demanded by the big nine"
and they are also Of the opinion that
the big nine" schools will not give
in to Michigan on any of the points
In question.

cago delegates at the conference

word of the Michigan intentions. but
the other members OF the Chicago
board made positive statements to the
effect that Chicago would not con-
cede the points for which she has
stood for the last few years. The
Midwayites will not agree to the loss
Of faculty control or to the resump-
tion of the training table.
No Decision Before Fall.
While the Midwayites have not heard
direct from Ann Arbor. they gathered
from the accounts of the Michigan
that the Wolverines would be
willing to give up the training table
and would make an attempt to have
the regents permit a kind of faculty
control. As Michigan has been in
formed that her petition will not be
until faculty control Is re-
stored, 1t is believed at the Midway that

Playing Summer Ball

Iege ball player wants to devote his
summer vacation to ball playing / can
see no difference between his receiving
money for doing that and the fellow
who goes out and sells something" said
DR.. Albert II. Sharpe, Cornell football,
baseball, and basket ball coach, today.
DIR. Sharpe said as long as colleges
had rules forbidding summer ball they
should be lived up 10, but he believed 1t
would be only fair to allow the college
baseball men to use their ability through
the summer and let them make just as
much money as they can.
There are many poor fellows on col
lege teams who could materially add to
their finances by playing in summer
months. And we all know that many
college men are playing summer base
ball, though not on the surface"

Although Manager Chance had high
hopes of being able to start the season

Wolter was injured last season. His
