DIGGING FOR RECREATION
French Soldiers, Out of the Trenches, Take Up Spade and Hoe For 8 Change"
Change" '"

French Front, Jan. 31.-Like the stage-driver who spent his monthly day off in riding on an omnibus, the French soldier when released for a short repose from digging and guard ing trenches passes most of his time digging and hoeing truck gardens.
 All along the French front around the depots and the cantonments and even about the dugouts, the Associat- ed Press correspondent has Zen ad- mirably laid-out truck-gardens. At the beginning of the new year there were 5,622 of these plots under culti- vation by French soldiers, and the produce of these plots for the past year is valued by the army authorities at 13,000,0O0 francs at wholesale prices.
 Nearly everywhere good results have been obtained and passing through the country parallel with the trenches the correspondent saw on all sides well-tended and flourishing beds of cabbages, Brussels sprouts, lettuce, leeks and other green stuff Not only, however, are vegetables of all kinds grown by the men, but in some cases the soldiers have initiated small breeding establishments for the rais- ing of domestic animals, and often while shells are whistling overhead the chorus is joined by squaling hogs and cackling and quacking hens, geese and ducks in the styes and runs erected by the soldiers.

 records of the commissions offlce The story which Wenck told Mon-
 day collapsed partly yesterday under the fire of MT. Fuchs. The defend ant was forced to admit that his men,- ory had not served him we'll in con-
 nection with some of the statements
 he had made while under direct exam
 ination. He was tripped upon clauses in the boxing law, although he is chief boxing commissioner. His story 1 that he had been told he would be , framed up" was shaken. Finally, he

PENNSY MEN RUSH
 TO F0LWELL'S AID
Faculty Committee Besieged With Protests Against His Dismissal

Philadelphia, Jan. 31-Never in
 the history of athletic affairs at the
 University of Pennsylvania has such influential protest been aligned against the socalled supreme court" the faculty committee on athletics, as de- nouncement that Robert c. Folwell, head coach of the first successful Red and Blue football team in recent years, would be dropped because of conduct considered flax" by certain members of that tribunal.
 Protests against the ruling of pr. Arthur w. Goodspeed, chairman of the faculty committee, who is insist ent upon barring Folwell, and who went on record as saying that the latter could not coach @ Penn team again under any conditions, were re- ceived by Provost E. F. Smith by telephone, telegraph, letter, and in person. From personal complaints against the summary dismissal of Fol- we'll without any explanation early in the morning, the protests grew by leaps and bounds until early evening, when climax was reached in the form of a formal communication emanating from the state legislature
 in session at Harrisburg.
 Twenty-one member of the legisla-
 ture, alumni of the university, and
 among them a number of former foot
 ball stars, rallied yesterday at liar
 risburg to the support of Folwell, and
 appointed a committee to meet Dr.
 Goodspeed and other members of the
 faculty and to urge that the deposed
 gridiron mentor receive at least
 fair hearing. .s
 Of the long list of signers, greatest
 significance is attached to the name of
 Dr. Michael s. Bennett. MT. Bennett,
 a Ware man in politics is none other than the present coach of Haverford college football, who is most prom inently mentioned as successor to Folwell as the gridiron mentor at Penn. Dr. Bennett played fullback on the University team under Captain W. G. Gardiner in 1902 and Captain Sol Metzger in 1903. He was a mem Der of the same team as Wharton Sinkler, chairman of the football committee, and has been looked upon as the candidate of the "Old Guard" referred toby the deposed FolweI
 Folwell will have a hearing before the faculty committee today. This announcement was made last night 1 by pr. A. A. Goodspeed, chairman of 1 the committee, after Dr. Edgar F. 1 Smith, provost of the university, had l declared that Folwell was entitled to hearing and should not be counted | out of the running" until he had had an opportunity to defend himself
 Dr. Smith further declared that the l system of athletic control at Pennsyl- l vania needs revising. and after the Folwell matter Is settled a new sys- tenn will be inaugurated. Under the new system" he added, 'the faculty committee will not be given the final i say in all matters" Provost Smith
 said that had be been consulted he
 would not have given his consent for
 the football team to make the recent trip to the Pacific coast, where it was
 defeated by the University of Oregon.
 The trip was ill-ad-ised," he said.

HOCKEY PLAYERS FIGHT.
Free-for-An Clash in I. A. A. C..St.
 Nicholas Game.

New York, Jan. 31.-In the toughest game that has been seen here in years the Irish American A. C.. seven defeated the Hockey club at St. Nicholas ring last night by score of 4 to 3. A free-for-all interrupted the second half, and officials and spec tators were powerless to quell the small riot until some faces had been bruised and few heads smashed,
 Thetrouble started when Patsy Se- quin's stick smashed a cut over the left eye of Tom Howard Jr. Tho players all punched around the young Howard, and Sequin and more blows were struck. Then Tom Howard, Sr., whose two sons are on the Hockey club team, rushed onto the ice and began to punch at Sequin. Other spectators, including two women, Jumped forth, and soon half a hum dred spectators were crowded around the excited players.

FIRST BOUT HIS LAST
Mcdonald Making Pro Debut in Ring Is Dropped With Heart Punch Father Occupies Ringside Seat.

Albany, N. Y, Jan. 31.-With his father occupying a ringside seat and State Boxing Commissioner John Franey also a spectator, Stephen H. Mcdonald, a young middleweight en- gagged in his first professional venture in the prize ring, was instantly killed by a blow over the heart in the first of the preliminary bouts of a boxing exhibition at German hall last night.
 The tragedy did not seem to affect the large crowd that witnessed the fight at all. At first it was thought to be an ordinary knockout The killing of McDonald-when it became known in the audience that he had died-seemed merely to whet the ap- petite of the spectators They re- mained through two more prelimi- nary bouts, semi-fnal and four rounds of the star event Of the even- ing, which was to have gone ten rounds, but was stopped at that point because thetWo principals were so poorly matched that the managers feared there would be a repetition of the tragedy that marred the opening bout of the evening.
 Toddy Hicks, who landed the death dealing blow, is held on charge of manslaughter. William Cliker, who was in Hicks corner, and the referee have been placed under arrest and are being held in $1,500 ball.

It only was by the grace of the Harlemite's kindly spirit that the Brooklynite lasted the night Leonard dropped Bloom for a count of eight in the second round bat tered him so unmercifully in the fifth that only the bell saved Phil and had the Brooklynite clinching and hang ing on desperately to avert a knock out in the tenth. At the end Leonard left the ring without even his hair ruffled.

TENER'S NEW RULES
National League President Wants the Home Plate Widened-Batter to Walk on Three Balls.

New York, Jan. 31.-President John K. Tener, of the National League, said yesterday that he will submit to the joint rules committee which meets here next month a rec ommendation to increase the width of the home plate from IT to 8 inches and send a batsman to first base on three balls instead of four. Such a would bring about the desired in- crease in batting.
 1T believe simply sending a bats man to first base on three balls in stead of four would be too great a change, and would throw the balance too much in favor of the batsman,' '' Tener said. By widening the plate an inch, however, the pitcher would have better opportunity of getting the ball over, but such change would be about two-thirds in favor of the batsman.
 T believe increasing the width of the plate would have more of a phy- chological effect than an actual one. The pitcher, knowing the plate had been widened, would have more con- hdence in his ability to get the ball over while the batsman. also con- scious of the increased width of the plate, would feel he had to hit the ball instead of trying to wait for q base on balls"
 Tener also declared himself in favor of abolishing exhibition games by major league clubs on their home grounds prior to the opening of the season.
