Zybyszko to Make First Appearance iI
 Capitol City Against Hasscn.

Hartford, March 22.-When Wladil1 Zybyszko appears on the mat at Par sons theater tomorrow evening to grapple with Hans Hassen in the star bout of the best card ever arrang geG in this city, local fans will have the first opportunity of witnessing the work of the greatest gladiator that Poland has ever produced, in the wrestling game. Although his noted
 brother who conquered the world un- til he faced Champion Gotch, was
 looked upon as the last word among the noted wrestlers, it is the opinion of experts of the game that, Wladik l is his superior. Those in attendance l at the tourney at the Metropolitan Opera House. New Y Ork on the OcCa- sion of the meeting of Zybyszko and "Strangler' Lewis are still discussing the wonderful work of these men on the mat In Hassen, the Pole will 1 face an opponent who by his recent work has proven his right to be con- 1 sidered among the top notchers. 1 "Strangler" Lewis who two weeks ago appeared in the local playhouse in the star mill against Tom Brook, 1 and gave an exhibition of his prow- ess. will be called upon to extend him = ] self to the limit tomorrow evening when he stacks up against Gus Cos tello, a recent arrival from the Wild and Woody West"
 Farmer" Bayley who put up a
 credltable battle against "The Masked
 Marvel two weeks ago, losing after a
 tough baattle, will be afforded an pp- portunity of proving to Hartford fol-
 lowers of the game that he is still
 among those to be reckoned as cham
 pionship material, when he meets l Jack McGrath the Irish Giant. All
 matches will be at catch catch can

VANCE DOES THINGS.
Berlin Boy Establishes Record in
 PcnnS ylvania League.

"Bobby'' Vance of East Berlin, is putting up a wonderful game in the Pennsylvania State league, the fol- lowing clipping from Hazleton newspaper has this to say about his work:
 Bobby Vance of the Hazleton and Carbondale teams, established a field goal record for the Pennsylvania State league Thursday night, when he shot thirteen double deckers against the Plymouth tailenders. Hazleton won the game by the lop-sided score of 66 to 25. Before Vance performed his record-breaking feat Jack Ingiis, of the Pioneers, was the state league s field goal king. Inglish shot nine two pointers in a game at Carbondale about a, month ago. By doing so le bested a record that had been esta3- lished by Jimmy Kane and Jimmy Mahon, of the Miners, each of whom caged seven field goals in one game earlier in the season.

aNew Haven, March 22.-The #atching of Sammy Waltz of Hart Hrd and Young McAuliffe of Bridge brt at 125 pounds ringside in the @ar bout of 1 5 rounds on the Casin 0 #rd March 30 hooks Up a couple of Nxers fans have long yearned to see action here. The fight will find wth boys at a weight they like and @hich permits them to go into the Eng. strong, rugged and fast.
 Waltz has laid claim to being the #atherweight. champion of the state 8n1e and again, and McAuliffe has a1- aays disputed the claim. The meet g here will do much to determine Shich is entitled to the honors in that &yision. Mac hasn't been seen here Ately and his visit will be something Hl the nature of a novelay. In view sf the improvement noted in the Hartford boy lately, McAuliffe will lave his hands full.
 The bout between Battling Kunz of S3uth Norwalk and K. o. Palitz is ex- sected to develop into one of those Fam bang affairs that delight the fans
 lager to see plenty of punching and Iction A big crowd is looked for or he night of the 30th and as there Rasn't been a real fight at the Casino se some time, it looks as though the Promoters might have to arrange fol 8xtra seats.

HARVARD CREW ICEBOUND.
May Work in Lynn Harbor, As the
 Charles River is Still Frozen.

Cam bridge, Mass, March 22-The Harvard University Oarsmen, WDo have been working indoors, decided yesterday to go to Lynn for prac- tice in the harbor. The Charles river basin is still frozen over, and the crew is a month behind that, of last year in beginning water practice.
 It is proposed to have the two highest ranked eights work at Lynn, with headquarters at the house of the Farragut Boat club. Should the river remain under ice much longer it is probable the management will transfer all the Crimson boating ac- tivities to that city.

Additional Statistics,

Very few statistics on the Willard = Moran embroglio have been over looked. Yet one of the most essent- ial details has not yet been tabulated We refer here to the vast expanse of language, to the number of words, that have been used since the debate first opened.
 In New York alone twelve papers have been each using 2,000 words a day. This makes 24,0O0 words a day for fifty days, or 100000 words fom the start up to ringside time.
 As the fight has received a big press play up and down the continent at least 500 other papers have added at least another 10,O00,000 words to
 the historical output. Over 12,000,000 words have been expended on the preliminaries of this contest, which is greater than the
 combined output employed by the Encylopedia Britannica and Rid paths History of the World" The story of the French Revolu- ton has been wonderfully told in 11,O0O,00O words less. The rise and fall of the Roman Empire'' required only fifth of this word tonnage.
 A fairly complete story of the European war to date could be written with fair surplus remain ing.
 Homer used less than a tenth of this to describe in detail the ten year seize of Troy.

YALE SKEPTICAL
 ABOUT EARLY START
Ellis Hope to Be Able to Play
 Game With Giants April 12

New Haven, March 22-There is little hope that the Yale nine will be able to open it's season next week Saturday. according to schedule. The team has a game booked with the Colonals, who include in their mem bership Pie" Way, Pete and Henry Falsey, former Yale players; Elm mons and Pat Cawley of Holy Cross, and George and Charley Brickley, of Harvard and Trinity.
 Yale Field is covered with & heavy, coat of snow, and Coach Will Lauder of the Ellis said yesterday that it is by no means likely that the team will be able to get on the field for their first practice by the time for the scheduled first game. t.... They have several games schedul- ed here, however, before they depart for their Southern trip, including i bout with Amherst April 8, one with the New York Giants April 12, one 1 with Columbia April 15..
 The Yale officials are hopeful that the field will allow games beginning with the match with the Giants here April 12, but arc very skeptical of any before then. The new basketball cage has allowed Coach Lauder to hold practice games, with actual batting and fielding, and the team iE already we'll advanced in technical play. -.-.
 The form shown by the pitchers 1 Newell Garfield, grandson of the for mer President of the United States; Watrous and Weiss-is excellent Nudge, who was out, of college last year, will again be behind the bat, and Jack Bierwirth, the hockey star. is developing into an excellent sub stitute, with Munson, freshman catcher of last season, as fast re serve material. ..r
 The veteran Prescott Bush is on first base, but has a fast rival in Ethan Shepley, last seasons fresh man captain. Jim Braden, the former Washington and Jefferson star has been shifted to second base. Crot- ty, formerly of Holy Cross, is a shortstop. and Ames. a, former fresh man player, is at third. Boyle, g former substitute, is another excel. lent infielder.
 In the outield Captain Vaughn Armour and Holden, the two latter of the freshman nine of last year, art in excellent form.

After the Fight.

Just what MT. Willard or Mir Moran must accomplish to maintain prestige after the B. F. (Big Fight not Bull Festival is a matter of de- bate.
 A ten-round affair in which neither is particularly aggressive and in which no certain verdict is rendered will cut heavily into the present prestige of both men.
 Willard to hold his fame, must either knock Moran out or clearly and clearnly outpoint him by a fairly wide margin To finish in front by a bare shade will bring him no addi- tional cheers.
 Morans task is somewhat shorter in stature. He doesn't have to prove that he is champion of the world
 By waging an aggressive contest that will leave him upon fairly even terms with Willard, his position will be established. But if both should refuse to take any undue chances and remain content to play it safe the aftermath will contain very little cheer.

Ghosts of the Alamo.

1 Ghosts of the Alamo. 1 There's the tramp of a ghost on the low winds tonight. 1 An echo that drifts like a dream on it's way; There's the blur of a spectre that leaves for the fight, Grave-risen at last from a long, vanished day; There's the shout and the call of
 grim soul unto soul, As they rise, one by one. out of
 death S shadowed glen, To follow the bugle-the drum S
 muffled roll, Where Ghosts of the Alamo gather
 again. I hear Crockett's voice as he leaps
 from the dust And waits at the call for an answer
 ing hail; And Bowie caresseS a blade red with
 rust As deep in the shadows he turns to
 the trail; Still lost in the darkness that covers
 their sleep Their bodies may rest in a sand
 mounded den, But their spirits have come from the
 red starry steep Where Ghosts of the Alamo gather
 again. You think they've orgotten-because
 they have slept The day Santa Anna charged in with
 his slaves, Where five thousand men OH bare
 hundred swept And stormed the last rampant that
 stood for their graves? You think they've forgotten; but
 faint, from afar, Brave Travis is calling the roll of
 his men, And voice answers "Here!' through
 the shadows that bar Where Ghosts of the Alamo gather
 again. There's a flash on a blade-and you
 thought it a star? There's a light on the plain-and you
 thought it the moon? Y ou thought the wind echoed that anthem or war? Not knowing the lit of an old border
 tune; Gray shade after shade, stirred again
 unto breath; Gray phantom by phantom they
 charge down the glen. Where souls hold a hate that is
 greater than death, Where Ghosts of the Alamo gather again.
 These are trying days upon the pacifists. Tn addition to the ground covered by the European war, there is the Mexican melee. And over what little soil remains. the gaunt shadows of Willard and Moran fall.
