TAKEUCHI TO MEET
BUMPS" TURNER

Bumps Turner. brother Of Joe Turner,
will meet Kio Takeuchi. the Japanese
Jul jitsu champion wrestler, at the
Gayety Theater in tonight's per-
fOrmance. Kio Takeuchi has found easy
picking to date with the local wrestlers,
putting away Soldier Leonard on Mon
day night and Jack Boland at the open
ing show on Monday in easy style
Jack Boland, who was defeated by
Takeuchi, in nine minutes at the open
ing Monday, will be given another chance
at the matinee performance today. The
fans of the graphing game are looking
forward anxiOusly to the bout with
Bumps Turner, as Bumps is a tall rangy
athlete and knows the game from A to T.
Manager JarbO has still few Of the
matches to be filed and issues a chal-
lenge to any of the local grapplers for
TakeuChi. The little Japanese is anxious
TO test his style of wrestling against
Joe Turner, the middleweight champion
of the world, and no doubt Manager Jar
DO will bring these two athletes together
later in the week
Frank Zeraga proved too much for
Takeuchi at the night performance last
night. The local heavyweight worked the
same style OF game that has made
Takeuchi famous and when the Jap at
tempted to work his famous scissor hold
Zeraga picked up the Jap and threw him
to the floor with such force that he had
enough Of the game offered by the local
heavyweight. At the matinee perform
ance Takeuchi compelled Emery Judths
to give up with scissor hold on his
arm in four minutes and one-half.

STEWARD NINE TO PLAY
CENTRAL THURSDAY

The students Of Stewards Business Col
lege are lighly elated over the baseball
teams success at Frederick on Monday,
when they conquered the Frederick High
School team to the tune of 16 to 6. Their
showing at Frederick was the best they
have made since their season began and
Mondays game has acted as a stimulus
to those players who were inclined to give
up hope. Dyer, captain at Eastern High
School last year, pitched a splendid game
for Stewards, and besides his work on
the mound he drew four hits out OF five
trips to the plate. The Frederick play
ers were good losers and they have
asked for another game with the business
collegians. 1t is probable that a contest
will be scheduled with them for the
second week in May.
Stewards team Is booked to meet Cen
trail High on Thursday at the Monument
Lot and lively contest Is expected.
Manager Emery has several open dates
on his schedule for the month Of May
and would like to hear from managers
Of well uniformed scholastic and anna
teur teams.

GEORGETOWN PLAYS
OLD ELI NINE TODAY

The scheduled game between the
Georgetown University nine and the team
representing Fordham University, of New
York city, which was looked forward
to by the majority OF the college follow
ers in the Capital. was called off yester-
day because of rain and the comparative
strength of the two teams will not be
had until May 90, when they meet in
New York City
Much rivalry has existed between the
teams representing the two schools for
many years and the calling off of the
game was a sad disappointment to all.
This afternoon the Hilltoppers and the
Yale University team meet on the Hill
top, provided the grounds are in con-
ton and one of the best games of the
college season is anticipated Yale thus
far on its present Southern trip has had
great success in handling the Southern
college mines and as they gave the Uni
versity Of Virginia team a 7-to-O defeat.
the HilltOppers will have more than their
hands full.
The game will start promptly at $50
with COllihower handling the Indicator.

Fund, you would decide that this
round old world had been sliced
in two and that the stage was the
greediest half of it.
One might stroll from the Flatiron
Building to Columbus Circle and con-
slider it a pleasurable promenade if
no eyes were upon you, but just try
to act at ease walking across the
Hippodrome stage, with thousands

Oh, but it's awful skeery business

not half so lionhearted as l was in
those days when had to brave
great merrymaking audiences daily.
So that is why l had shivery quivers
running down my spine when our
turn was called on the program.
AS the little act was a burlesque
on the taking of moving pictures,
we began with the directors, camera
men, assistants and assistants as
sitants landing at Forty-second
street and Broadway in full-dress
suits, looking for a quiet location.
OF course there were a few teasing
lines about the Mary Pickford star
being late, and that gave them a
chance to set upon me like a pack of
snarling wolves when l drove up in
limousine.

heart of burning desert. OF course
that meant l had to crawl back into
the machine, take off my evening
