Went to See Wrestling
Bout; Read What Happened

DETROIT, Mich, April S.-Several
hundred persons paid several hun
bred dollars to watch Wladek ZbysZ-
ko, brother of Stanislaw, and Ed
stranger" Lewis, wrestle at a local
armory last night. This is what they
witnessed:
Twenty minutes of clawing, pulling
and hauling, A right swing to the
jaw delivered by Lewis, which sent
Zbyszl1o to the mat, Lewis struck
after he cried that Zbyszko attempted
to gouge out one of his eyes; police
interference; a near riot; a number
of free for-all fights, which probably
were better exhibitions than the main
bout; ringside speech delivered
by zbyszko, in Polish, denying he
tried to separate Lewis from his eye;
an outpouring of angry, excited peo-
pie that kept the police busy for more
than an hour.

Chicago Federal League Club to en-
join Catcher William j. Killifer, jr.,
from playing with the Philadelphia
National League Club or any club

the Chicago Federals and the Phila-
delphia Nationals, who claimed they
had more authorities to cite in be-
half of their contentious. 1.-THE au-

East Side High Schools team,

Hest contender for the Newark Ii gh
Schools Athletic Association base
ball title, will start its scholastic sea-
son next Tuesday, when it is slated
to face the Mt. Pleasant Military
Academy nine at Ossining, N. Y.
Much of the East Siders' strength
lies in their pitching STAFF. Dave
White, the former South Market
Street School star, will perhaps do
most of the twirling. Bien, Allsopp
and Braader will be given chance
to show their ability in the early
games, and capable relief will prob
ably be developed. Allsopp pitched
fair ball last year.
1t is rumored that when the season
begins Big Jim Mcmahon, last years
pitching star, will once more be seen
in the Maroon and White toggery.

schultz to the Minors.

An official of the Detroit American
League Baseball Club last night con-
firmed a report from Evansville, Ind,
that Pitcher Wallace C'Toots'o Shultz
has been ordered to come to Detroit
at once. Shultz has been with No. .
squad of the Detroit club, which was
prevented by rain from playing
Evansville yesterday.
1t is understood waivers have been
secured on Shultz, and he probably
will be returned to the minors. He
may go to Vancouver. the club which
sold him to Detroit last season, as he
was only partly paid for. The bal
ance of the purchase price depended
upon his making good with Detroit.
Shultz, who formerly was a star
twirler for the University of Pennsyl-
vania team, has had a sore arm ever
since he joined the Detroit squad at
Gulfport.

, Mcmahon was almost invincible
among the schoolboys last year. Aug
mented by Mcmahon the pitching
crew looks to be the strongest in the
local scholastic ranks.
Captain George Bauer will do the
bulk of the catching. Bud Mayo is
slated for first base, while Braader
will cavort about the second sack.
Spearer is the choice for short stop.
The best of the candidates for the
third station is Fitzsimmons, who
will complete a fast infield. The out
field is not so capable at present.
Muller In left field, Berg in the centre
and Leonardis in right field appar-
emily have the call on the rest of the
candidates. Other outfield recruits
are Neuschaeffer Sievering, Block,
Spiegel and Cirlincione.
1t is hoped to whip this outfield
material into better shape by the
opening of the N. II. S. A. A. season.
