which was draped in red, white and
blue; Mrs. Reed Viewers car was
another In pure white, which was
much admired. Mr.. o. s. Van
Huss' car was in the national colors,
and was followed by Mr.. McCollum' s
car in red and white.
officers of the U. D. C. in a car
decorated in the colors of the chap
ter, were noted in the parade, and
they made nice showing.
Caldwell & Feigley, electricians,
had a handsome float, and several
advertising floats were next in line,
advertising the Cut Price store. Mr..
Pete Roquemore and his cart was
one of the attractive features of the
parade, and came in for their share
of favorable attention.
The Illinois Club float represented
a snow scene in the north, a small
house surrounded by snow being the
main feature. Miss Conibear was
making snow balls on the float, max
ing it the more realistic.
The Citrus Exchange, which is the
acknowledged model of the whole
State, was in the parade by a large
majority. Mr.. Kinney, the mana
ger, led in his buggy, followed by
four floats filled with workmen en-
ployed by the Exchange, of whom
there were over 100.
A float advertising Lakeland's ex-
pert wrestlers was next in line, fol-
lowed by a float advertising the groc
cry of d. B. Dickson. Another float
was that of the Leader, both of
which were very attractive. The
Wilson Hardware Co. had big float
in which were displayed the latest
farm implements, followed by the
Auditorium float, which showed that
| Lakeland is not without amusements
from the looks of the billboard. The
most mammoth float in the parade
was that the the Lakeland Feed and
Supply Co., on which was piled hay
and grain, span of horses being
employed to pull it. &c.
The Chero Cola Rottling Works
were next in line, with an attractive
float, followed b, a cart and pony
advertising the Wilson Bros sta
bles. The Grand theater had an
attractive float, giving the attrac-
tions to appear there soon.
One of the most attractive floats
was that of the John F.. Cox Realty
Co. This was a large cardboard
house, which just covered an automo-
bile nicely, and which was as COM
plete in every detail as though a resi-
dence had been employed.
This was followed by a float of the
Cocoa Cola Bottling Works, which
well advertised their wares.
Miss Vera McRae and Miss Louie
Layton appeared in beautifully
decorated buggy, which proved to
be prize winner.
Mr.. A. Anderson was another
prize winner, his large float bearing
a wonderful array of farm products,
and which was the cynosure of all
eyes.
The Biewer car was handsomely
decorated and Mrs. Terrell and par
ty were in another attractive car.
Mr.. G. e. Southard's car was in
red and white. Mr.. F.. o. Flood
and family were also in their car.

SCORES ARE AFTER
JOBS WITH SMITH
"BiII" Cavanaugh of Fl. Wayne
Writes Manager For Berth
on New Team-LeaSe on
SpringbroOk Park Secured.

Requests for berths upon the new
South Bend baseball team by the
score still continue to clutter the mail
received by Manager Ed Smith of the
Bender aggregation. While some are
from youngsters who do not know
what uniform is built for, others
promise much in the way of unused
talent. Some are personal letters from
men who have known the South Bend
pilot for years, and being familiar
with his form of discipline, have been
waiting for the local teams entrance
into the Southern Michigan league to
become a certainty before asking for
berths for the coming season.
One of the more interesting letters
received Z Y Ed Tuesday was one from
"Bill' Cavanaugh of Ft. Wayne Bill
is classy player and has seen service
on teams where the highest efficiency
was demanded. He is anxious TO be-
come a member of any team that is
headed by Ed Smith, and Will gladly
come to South Bend to try out this
summer Smith thinks the chances
OF Cavanaugh's making good on the
Bender nine are good, and says ne will
give Bill all the chance in the world
to show his goods.
The lease for Springbrook park was
secured by Smith Tuesday, laying
aside the last obstacle in the path of
q clean opening season.
Smith said Tuesday night that the
Benders in all probability would play
a preseason series with Manager
E,ssick's Grand Rapids Blackstoczings.
The Bender pilot has been in com
munication with his former partner
concerning the venture and the LAT
ter has promised to try 10 arrange
dates for a series. The event should
be medium in aiding each To dis
cover the various weaknesses in each
roster, and a help in the wedding out
that is bound TO take place before
the opening date.
Ed failed TO make an inventory Of
the needed repairs on the park Tues
day on account of the inclement
weather. He will endeavor to make
a trip to the park Wednesday and in
the company of other men interested
IL the welfare of the local organiza-
ton, will plan the remOdeling. The
stand will be repainted and repaired
the diamond given the needed work
and other repairs that are deemed
necessary will be investigated.
The change in the opening date with
Saginaw is still up in the air. Pres
Ryder of the KazOO aggregation. is
given credit for the statement that
be will see to the change as he wants
the privilege Of being the first TO plav
with the new club. He feels that the
opening date here is 20 be a good one,
both in drawing power and advertise
ment.
The local team may play n series
of games with Metre Dame before the
season opens.

DIAMOND MEN GET
HARD WORK IN GYM
Batting Practice and Fielding
Conducted at Top Speed Un-
der WatChfuI Eye of Harper.
May Get Out on Turf Today.

Indictment weather forced Coach
Harper to drill his baseball charges
in the gymnasium Tuesday, and in
place of the two workouts that had
been planned for st. Patrick's day, the
men received but one stiff practice
that lasted all morning. The players
were loath to go inside again after the
taste of real baseball weather they
have enjoyed outside since last Fri
day, but the cold and rain Of Tues
day morning meant sore muscles II
there was any playing on the out
door diamond. Some Of the men are
still trifie sore after Mondays prac-
tice tilt.
Harper worked his men at top speed
for over two hours, and at the end OF
the mornings practice nearly every
one was ready to hOller huff" The
coach first held a long batting prac-
tice. Strike-outS were numerous in
Mondays game, and for this reason
special attention was devoted to bat
ting. Success in college baseball de-
pends largely upon good hitting, and
as Harper has, this year, a large
squad at his disposal. he is endeavor-
ing to uncover a goodly number OF
heavy hitters. Bjoin. Meyers, Berg
mann, FARRELL and Mike Carmody did
we'll wi n the stick on Monday. while
d. Newning, Kline, Gray and Kenny
have been doing good hitting In the
gymnasium.
After the batting practice. the in
fields came in for a long and snappy
workout. Harper endeavored to get
the men working we'll together, and
practiced the players on double plays
and on throwing to the bases. Before
hitting the ball, the coach would call
out man on first and one down." or
man on third and no one out" etc,
TO place the men up against conditions
that will confront them in regular
games. He forced the players to come
in on hunts at top speed, and to peg
to bases where they would be likely
to do the most damage. If the weather
PERMITS there will probably be a short
practice game this afternoon.

H. N. JUNIORS WIN AGAIN

Time gold.

feature of the game, while the floor
covering ability of Brinkman. the
Turner guard, brought him into the
limelight for his quint.
Sousley made four legitimate throws
and cast three free throws. Butter

by four we'll tossed baskets.

Plot To Rob Richie of
Title Fails; Stout Backs Out

champion received an injection just
before the match which brought about
the same result as a foul, yet was de-
void of the pain from such a blow.
That Richie was not stripped of his
title was due to Stout getting cold feet
at the last minute. Conditions before
and after the match bear out the ru-
more. 1t is now positively known that
WOlgast lay awake the night before
the fight suffering from a bad pain in
his left hand and that three doctors
Orked on him for hours relieving the
pain and reducing the swelling.
When AID returned to his dressing
room after the fight he was examined
10y a physician who declared the eX-
champion was fouled and claimed the
evidence was there.
If it was a plot il did not work and
the promoters are trying to bring the
pair together again.

Fast Lightweight From
Wales, Who Gets Decision
After Twenty Rounds.
BY III. NJ. WALKER.

Los ANGELES. Calf, March IS
Ring Note-The lightweight cham
pionships of England, Australia and
South Africa still remain in Wales
with heavy anchor attachment.
Jose Rivers efforts to outlook Fred
die Welch reminded one OF a child
trying TO open a Yale lock with a
soup ladle.
Welch, still the peerless and pleas
ant performer of old, gave the Califor-
MAN scientific beating of 20 rounds.
Rivers saw more boxing gloves in one
afternoon than ever before in his ca
reer and the smell of leather should
sicken him during the remainder of
his natural life
Without a single Touchdown, stag
gering punch or exciting incident.
WEIGH pranced through the 20 rounds
keeping his rival dangling on the end
of a left jab and playing a hard right
on the kidneys. On the defensive
Frederick was all of a wizard. block
ing JOse's punches in a way that left
nothing but elbows, forearms and
gloves for Rivers to hit.
Rivers made a rafting good uphill
fight. His mistake was in trying 10
outlook Welch. This plan was exactly
20 Freddies liking and his showing
amounted 10 a boxing lesson for Jose.
When Rivers did start to cut and
slash in the 18th he had the best of
luck, reaching the champions anat-
omy in a way that brought a look Of
concern TO Welch's face. He Grim
sOned the royal beeZer in this round,
which was JOse's best session. Again
in the 18th Rivers stopped boxing TO
Welch's orders and made the smuggling
more than interesting for the Briton.
Jose shaded Fred in the 18th also.
Aside from these three rounds
WeLch handled the situation just as he
pleased.
