BIG FELLOWS TO
EASE UP TRAINING
Willard and Moran Are in
Fine Shape For Hard
Battle
By Associated Press

New York, March 81. - At both
training camps to-day the word was
passed by the men in charge of Jess
fellows are SO nearly on edge that the
remainder of the week should be de-
voted to lighter exercises. The work
will be restricted to that which is nee
essary to keep the men in their present
excellent condition.
Everyone, including the State Ath-
letic Commissions physician, DR.. Jo-
seph M. Creamer, who has seen the
men in action during the last three
days. seems satisfied that both are in
prime shape for next Saturdays ten
round bout. Both have trained
earnestly and their looks certainly bear
out the statements of their respective
managers, who claim that nothing has
been left undone that could be intro
duced into the daily work of the men
in order to bring them as near as
possible to perfect trim.
No More Road Runs
Willard will not take any more hard
morning road runs. His program to-
day called for two-mile walk at a
stiff pace this morning and this after
noon he will box six or eight rounds
with Hemple, Rode1 and Monahan.
The latter raised lump on the right
side of Willard's head with a left-hand
smash yesterday, but it responded to
subsequent treatment and was reduced
to very small proportions to-day. After
to-day, Manager Tom Jones said, Will
lard would ease UP in all of his work,
but would box few rounds every day
up to Friday.
Moran. after his lay-off yesterday,
was up early this morning and made
preparations for his usual four-mile
run across country. He intends doing
q full turn in the gym" this after
noon and will take on all of his
sparring partners for a couple of
rounds each. Tomorrow he will ease
off to lesser work and by Friday he
hopes to turn the scales at 205 pounds.
He still is of the opinion that he can
get on enough weight to enter the ring
at 207 pounds.

The Casino Bowling League race is
quite interesting. The Orpheums have
not yet been ousted from first place,
but the jolly Five is q close second,
and the Shippers, Alphas and Cres-
cents are tie for third honors. Mont
gomery is the best bowler. his aver
age for 50 games is 1872. Barnes, who
plays with the Senators, tail-enders,
is second with 100. Montgomery leads
in 200 scores. Barnes has the best
record for successive strikes.
The West End A. c. baseball team
will be the first to get into the game.
This aggregation of local stars will
play Mercersburg Saturday. Manager
Frank Henry is giving his squad
plenty of indoor practice, but is
anxious to get chance on the field.
Efforts on the part of the New
York boxing commission to, have 1t
understood that the willard Moran
battle next Saturday will be on the
level, have brought good results. Con-
fidence is strong, and this fact is
proven by the interest in Harrisburg.
Moran has a number of followers here
who are putting up their cash as to
the staying qualities of the Pitts

AFTER ROSEWOOD
Manager Thomas Issues Chal-
= lenge; Puts Up Cash and
Names Teams

Due to criticism for playing the
Rosewood basketball team in a cham
pionship series, Manager Charles w,
Thomas, of the Harrisburg Telegraph
team, is out with an explanation and
challenge. Manager Thomas is still
of the opinion that he has the best
amateur team in Harrisburg. He
offers the record of the Telegraph
tossers for the season as proof to
his claims. He has issued the follow
ing challenges:
I'VE will play Rosewood on the
Chestnut street auditorium floor for
500 a side, winner to take all money
over expenses. Game to be refereed
by President Shelter of the Eastern
League, or a man from his staff select
ed by him, preferably Herman 'Baetzel,
the recognized peer of referees.
Each team to furnish half the
necessary money to cover expenses
when arrangements are complete, said
money to be returned If receipts equal
expenses. Each team to have the
privilege of choosing Eastern League
or Collegiate rules to govern one-half,
toss of coin to decide first choice.

following players: Rosewood, Kent,
Krout, Kline, Title, Killinger, Devine,
Ziegler, and Manager Killinger; Tele-
graph, Stackpole. Gebhard. Yoder,
Barr, Roth, Edmunds, Storey and
Manager Thomas.
Captain Stackpole has consented
TO play only because he is an en-
ploye of the Telegraph, as he has
made it a rule to play only for the
pleasure he derives from the game"
The cash is up and will be turned
over TO the Sporting Editor of a
neutral paper as soon as the Rose
wood management is heard from.

Johnny Ertle Hands Defeat
to Philadelphia Fighter
Special to the Telegraph

Philadelphia, March 21.-From the
beginning of the fourth round until
the close of the final session at Olym-
pia last night Johnny Ertle, of st. Paul,
fairly smothered Young McGovern un-
der shower of left hooks and right
crosses. The tinkle of the final bell
played joyful tune in the Port Rich
mond youngsters ears. Tt was Ertle's
bout, and the margin of advantage was
a mighty big one, although it took
the Westerner three rounds to wise up
to the fact that he had little to fear
from McGovern's punches.
Twice it looked as though McGovern
were going to take a visit to the Land
of Nod. The first time McGovern was
on the verge of q knockout was in the
fourth round, when early in the round
Ertle rushed the little Port Richmond
boxer to the ropes.

COLONEL HOUSE LEAVES
 BERLIN FOR SWITZERLAND.
Appeared to Be We'll Pleased With the
 Result of His Visit.

Berlin, Jan. 29, via London, Jan. 30.- Colonel Edward M. House, personal representative of President Wilson, de- parted tonight for Switzerland. He appeared pleased with the result of his visit to Berlin. Gottlieb Won Jagow, secretary of foreign affairs, whom the Associated Press correspondent saw for few moments in the midst of a busy day, says he was impressed with Col onel Houses sympathetic manner and charm and his friendly feeling for Ger menting on the results of the visit on the ground that the colonel was on a confidential mission from the president.
 Dr. onweg, the imperial chancellor, it was learned, also enjoy ed and appreciated the visit and re- gretted that the colonefs brief stay did not afford him an opportunity to accept the invitations of personal hos pitality which the chancellor and the foreign secretary had hoped to extend.
 The final interview of Colonel House, who received among others today Dep uty Heckscher, director of the Ham held with Dr. Alfred Zimmerman, the 1 under-secretary of foreign affairs, who lunched at the American embassy, re- maining in conversation with Colonel House and Ambassador Gerard until nearly 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
 The presidents representative there after closeted himself with the wal minister the two almost until the col onePs departure at o'clock in the evening, upon reports to be forwarded to Washington. Secretary Winslow o1 | the embassy again accompanied the

Will Do Much to Clarity German
 American Relations.

Berlin, via London, Jan. 30, 9.44 p. m.-Colonel Edward M. House. Presi- dent Wilson's personal representative has left Berlin for Paris and London by way of Switzerland. Prior to his departure, though declining to be quoted with any particularity on the results of his mission, Colonel House said he was very glad he had come to Berlin and added that the converse tions which he had had with leading German statesmen and prominent men in private life and particularly his conferences with Ambassador Gerard. had been most profitable and would undoubtedly lead to clarification of German American relations, although it was to be doubted whether any definite tangible developments could be expected therefrom.
 His visit, which was chiefly for in- formative purposes, can scarcely be said to have brought him any novel or unexpected light on the German situation, the main outlines of which, 1t appears, are we'll understood in Washington, thanks to the copious re- ports received there from the Ameri- can ambasse dor; but he has been en- frightened with respect to various as- poets havS1g particular interest for President Wilson.
 Colonel House will, therefore, it is believed, convey to the president nothing startling new upon the Ger man situation and the attitude of the government in it's various branches but mass of detailed information

Telesrams Denouncing Preparedness Programme cheered.

Washington, Jan. 30. - Telegrams from William J. Bryan and Henry Ford denouncing the administrations programme of preparedness were cheered at a mass meeting today un- der the auspices of eighteen peace so- cities. Six congressman spoke op- posing the preparedness plan.
 Representative Bailey, democrat, of Pennsylvania, presided. The others speakers were Representatives Gallo way, democrat, and Dies, democrat of Texas: Gordon, demorcat of Ohio: Saunders. democrat of Virginia and Tavenner, democrat of Illinois.
 Representative Galloway, a member of the house naval committee, said the advocates 'just want to spend the tax payers money lavishly'
 Previous military and naval appro- priations have been wasted like wa ter" Representative Tavenner said. He urged an embargo on munitions and advocated "a vote of the people, on the question of war should it arise.z Women should have the right to vote on the war question, he said.
 Representative Saunders declared the preparedness argument of "oul terrible ex-president' had been refut- ed by history which, he said, shows that although the United States had never led the world in preparedness il was never vanquished.
 "A year ago" said Representative Dies, "the president had a good idea of peace. Now he takes a dare and goes forth for preparedness. But we will keep him out of his continental army mess"
