YANKEES MAY
 RETAIN SEVEN
 YOUNG BOXMEN

Macon, Ga, March 13-If Manager as to what pleayers to keep for his regulars and what to place with other clubs for future use or let go entirely he has given no indication of it. The manager of the Yankees has promised to turn over five men to Billy Smith, the Richmond manager, but he doesn't know himself yet who these five will be. It is a perplexing job deciding just what players to keep and he will take all the time possible before let ting anybody go. As he said on the subject yesterday morning, Any manager is liable to make a mistake on a matter of this kind.'
 There is lots of work to be done in the two remaining weeks here. As yet there have been no wide lines of cleavage shown in the respective abil- ities of the numerous young pitchers The race is still close. with signs of not more than two of the nine young sters dropping by the wayside as the contest prolongs itself.
 Magee in left, Maise1 in center and Gi1hooIey in right evidently is Dono- vans present idea of the best outfe1d arrangement, and if this group is re- tained the Tanks will have an en- tire1y new outfie1d. There is speed in this trio and especially base running ability, but it can stand a good deal of polish in it's work in the outfield.
 Magee is making a shift from cen ter to left and Maisel needs consider able practice to accustom himself to the requirements of his new post. The best outfie1der in the Yankee party is Miller, who came from Mobile last year. He is fast, graceful, can go far for flies and is sure on them. He has all the ways of a high class outfie1der and ability to hit 300 would land him a regular place in the outskirts.
 Pipp, Peck and Baker are as sure of their places in the inf1e1d as it is possible to be without being chained there, but the competition for second base goes on keen1y. Gedeon looks at home there. does his work in ef- fort1ess sort of way and rams the ball hard when at bat.
 Mullen hasn't entirely accustomed himself to moving to the. right instead of the left, as was his custom when playing first. Boone is as neat and nifty an infie1der as there is in the whole ranks and in any position.
 Donovan hopes Baker will be able to take his place on the team within a week. q am five pounds overweight D says Baker. ''I haven't been on the scales lately, but I can tell by stoop- ing over. I can feel the accumulation of flesh around my middle when I Sfa

Hickman of Federal
 Fame Causes Brooklyn
 Manager To Enthuse

Daytona, Fla, March 13-The Brooklyns put in the day autoing or making trips down the Halifax River. The arrivals during the last twenty four hours were Cutshaw, Getz and Fucker. The only absentees now are Daubert and Outfielder Myers, who are expected in on any train.
 The most promising of the colts is young Hickman, who played with Baltimore Feds last year. Johnston, the Pacific Coast ho1dout, who is kick ing over the salary question, will have to show to keep this youngster out of the regular lineup. Outf1elder Nixon, who played with the Dodgers towards the latter part of last season, has been sent back to the Beaumont. Texas, Club.

WILLARD SORE
 WHEN TRAINING
 CRAFT STOPPED

New York, March 1S-Jess Willard the worlds heavyweight champion, went through his usual training rOu- tine at the Pioneer A. C., in Forty fourth street, yesterday afternoon, but no admission was charged. Willard and his manager. Tom Jones, were very wroth yesterday at the Boxing Commission and at Chirman Fred Wenck in particular. Jones said the commission had been trying to make trouble for the champion ever since he came to town.
 Willard and Jones at first thought that they would shake the dust of New York from their feet and go back to Chicago to finish the formers train ing. Walter Monahan, his trainer however, thinks that Willard is now getting into such good condition that it would be a mistake to break the routine of his work. The big boxer dropped few pounds last week, and as the bout Is only two weeks away, he realizes that it will be necessary for him to stick to hard work if he wants to get down to 249 pounds.
 Jones insisted yesterday that it didn't make any difference to Willard himself whether admission was charged to see the champion train. The Pioneer club encouraged the scheme, as the club was getting a per centage of the receipts. As the or ganization is now under suspension. the club promoters will have little to say about how the training sessions will be conducted.
 Jones affirmed that the reason an admission was charged in the first place was to keep the crowd down to a reasonable number. He was afraid that the hall will be overrun with spectators if everybody is permitted to go in free. It is likely that Willard will keep up his training there until he is in condition for the bout.
 Frank Moran felt so well yesterday that he put in a busy day, and did not spare himself at all. He gave the big crowds which went up to DaI flaw Ixins's to see him an afternoon of ex- citing and fast boxing.

JAKE FULLER AND
 HIS STARS TACKLE RIBBONS TOMORROW

Jake Fuller and his band of sharp shooters will be the guests of the Blue Ribbon Basketball players at Colonial hall tomorrow night. Fuller was booked to bring his team here several weeks ago but Manager Leavy postponed the engagement because he had a chance to get the Reading, Pa., five.
 Fuller has been boastinE, that his boys will clean up the locals. He has Powers and Chief Muller on the forward line and Bergcanp at center. The latter is said to be a good man. although a newcomer in these parts Fuller and Harvey will play the guards. Harvey is not the lanky center but is the youngster who play ed one game with the Ribobns a short tine ago and made such a hit with Che crowd. There will be the usual preliminary at 7:45.

Germans Claim One More Triumph In
 Scientific Field.

Amsterdam, Mar. 10-The problem of finding a substitute for ferro-man- ganese for the production of steel in Germany has been solved, according to a semi official statement received here from Berlin. This substitute, the nature of which is not divu1ged, can be produced in large quantities from internal raw materials. it is said.
 Factories for the production of the new substance are already working and more are being constructed. It is asserted that this new process will make Germany independent of inn ports in this line.

BRADLEY WON'T COME HERE.


 Hugh Bradley is out of the competi- ton for the Bridgeport manager job. The former Pittsburgh Federal lea guer has signed with Columbus, O., of the American association and will play first base for that club. Bradley at his home in Worcester said he would have liked the Bridgeport berth but couldn't wait for the matter to be settled. Meanwhile the local officials are waiting to see if Neal Ball can get away from Toronto.
 Rebel Oakes, who managed the Pittsburgh FederaIs last season, has been signed as manager of Worcester. Oakes is the old St. Louis player. He was regarded as one of the best out 6e1ders in the National league and his ability as a manager As indicated by the fact that he had the Pittsburgh club within one game of the cham pionship last season.
 Manager Gene McCann of the New London club is in this city and it is reported he is on the trail of some promising Industrial league boys. :
 John TiI1erman of this city. who was taken by the St. Louis Browns after he did so well in the Colonial league, has been ordered by St. Louis to report to Memphis, Tenn.,= of the Southern league.

 Although the New York writers have not given much space to Ray Heating this season, the New York American this morning says the local boy is sure to be retained on the regular Yankee pitching staff. Keat- ing pitched part of the practice game last Saturday and had lots of speed. a Tommy Burns, who held the heavy weight title for a short time, says he thinks Moran will get newspaper de- cision over Willard. He declares Will lard is not a great fighter and is likely to be outpointed by Moran. | Manager Donovan thought at one | time he would carry only 22 men but | now he says the New Y ork Americans will load up to the limit of 25. There are so many likely looking recruit
 pitchers that Donovan can't make up
 his mind which to discard.
 There is trouble ahead because cer- | tain Federal players claimed by the | International league have signed with Southern league clubs. Ed Barger, | the old Newark pitcher, was supposed
 to revert to that club but instead he
 has signed with Memphis. Swancina,
 another Newark jumper, has gone to

have praised the work did while with Philadelphia and elsewhere.
 "When came up from the old St. Joe team I weighed just 127 pounds, and the critics in writing of my work said that Young Dooin, the youngster now with the Phillies, has all the ear marks of being a star, but his lack of size will no doubt prove an insur- mountable handicap to him.
 Yet the seasons came and the sea sons went, and I remain in the big show, and I believe that I am far from finished yet. Indeed, I look for ward to helping tLe Giants capture the pennant in the 1916 race. So I believe that what one man can do an- other man can do, and the managers are gradually being weaned away from the idea that in order to be a successful catcher one must be big''

K0CHER STAR IN
 GIA..TS' VICTORY

Dallas, Tex, March 13-The New York Giants continued their perse- cution of the Dallas Quakers and beat them in the second game of the series yesterday afternoon. The score was to 1. There was plenty of free hit ting, most of it by the Giants sharp fielding and smart base running. The pitching, too, was of major league calibre, and all in all the fans to the number of 5000 or more were well re- paid for their day spent in the open air.
 Jim Thorpe was one of the leading factors in the victory of the Giants It was his triple, a rousing, roIlicking drive to the right centre field fence, which started his team to victory in the sixth inning. It came with George Burns first base and broke a tie at one run all.
 Rube Schauer and Ferdie Shupp did the pitching for the Giants. Waco, Tex, Mar. 13-Ritter's fine work in the box and splendid fielding behind him enabled the Giants second team to defeat Waco here yesterday afternoon 4 to 0. thereby evening up their defeat of yesterday. Ritter pitched thief u1I game and allowed his opponents only six safe hits, all scattered The Giants nine hits wereb oth hard and timely. Fish led with the stick, making two doubles.

Danger Signal

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help
to put out the fire? 1t is much the
same way with a cough. A cough
is a danger signal as much as fire
bell. You should no more try to
suppress it than TO stop a fire bell
when it is ringing, but should cure
the disease that causes the cough
ing. This can nearly always be
done by taking Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy. Many have used
it with the most beneficial results.
1t is especially valuable for the per-
sistent cough that so often follows
bad cold or an attack of the grip.
Mrs. Thomas Beeching, Andrews.
Ind, writes: During the winter
my husband takes cold easily and
coughs and coughs. Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy is the best medicine
for breaking up these attacks and
you cannot get him to take any
other" Obtainable everywhere.
