not worry long with holdouts. They
are ignoring all players who have not
signed contracts, and failure on the
part of last season stars to show up
in training camps will mean new play

WOLGAST WINS
TEN-ROUND BOUT
Brother of Former Champion
Has Best of Battle With
kid Albert

Johnnie Wolgast, of Cadillac, Mich,
brother of Ad Wolgast, now haltered
in the stable of Frank Erne, at Ian
caster, gave kid" Albert, Frederick.
Md, a severe beating last night in a
ten-round bout. 1t was a big battle
of a show held under the auspices of
the keystone Sporting Club, in Chest
nut Street Auditorium. The bout went
ten rounds.
Wolgast had every round. although
in the opening round Albert got a
right hook across to Wolgast's nose,
drawing the red fluid. This was the
only damage inflicted on Wolgast and
was momentary. After the second
round Wolgast went after the "Wop'
hard and gave him severe punish
ment. early in the fourth round VOL
CAST opened Albert's caulifiower ear,
which bled profusely during the re-
mainder of the bout. He was also
bleeding from the mouth and nose.
Albert was game and did a great deal
of the leading, but his rushes were
made blindly and Wolgast stopped
him with left jab, followed by a
stiff right After the fourth round the
Cadillac lad landed blows almost at
will. A left jab and u straight right
were Wolgasts effective punches.
Walks Into Jab
Albert walked into a hefty jab in
the eighth round, closing his right eye
for the remainder of the bout. He
came back strong in the ninth, but
his rushes were soon halted by sue
cessive lefts to the jaw, followed by
stiff rights to the body. lie finished
the round weak. At the opening of
the tenth round Wolgast put the 1tal-
ian to his knees with left uppercut,
weakening him for the rest of the
round. He hung on to Wolgast to
save himself and did not give the
Cadillac lad chance to put across
the haymaker. Albert left the ring
in a dazed condition while Wolgast
was not marked
The preliminary bouts were also of
a high order. Kid Bretz, of Steelton,
and Paul Coyne, of Lancaster, opened
the show and mixed it up in a lively
manner. George kid" Alberts, of
Reading, although greatly outweighed
by Kid Smith, of Columbia, showed
the fans some real scientific fighting
of the six rounds.
The show was a good one up until
the last bout which was to have been
the semiflnal between Billy Waltz, of
Lancaster, and Dick Wills, of Phila-
delphia, but on account of Wills not
making his appearance it was held off
until last and the wind-up took its
place. Wills failed to show up and
frankie Erne and Waltz gave a clever
exhibition.

LOOMING UP STRONGER---WOLGAST is B
-WEzEYs eoRNER

In the young 1S-year-old STAR
Dewey lsenberger, West End has a
conner. His pitching last season at
tracted much attention. He lost a 2
to 1 game against Lebanon. 1t was
played at Lebanon on Labor Day. He
won the game against Rosewood A. c..
at Island Park, and Won in the game
with Mercersburg Academy.
This season will be Jim Thorpe's
last chance to make good. He is now
with the Giants at Marlin, Texas. Last
season in the American Association in
143 games he had batting average
of .274. He knocked out 10 home
runs and lead the association in
stolen bases, having .274 to his credit.
He will have to go some to get into
the outfield as a regular. His con-
tract with the Giants expires this sea-
son.
Willie Hoppe, who is winning hon
ors in billiard contests and is the I'M
disputed champion. has entered the

the strings and send the "phenoms"
back to the bushes.
George Wiltse recently announced
the signing of Dick Breen, one of the
best second-basemen who has even
worked in the State League. Wiltse is
also on the track Of some good in =
fielders and a couple of outfielders. He
expects to produce a pitching staff
that viii be up to the minute in all
respects and he will cut loose from
much of the excess baggage the club
carried along last season.
New Faces for COcEiIl
George Cockill has promised num-
ber of new faces for the Harrisburg
team. Cockill expects to have all mem
bers of last years team report for
practice, but he does not intend to
hold many of them. He was far from
satisfied with the work of his club
last year, but he was unable to produce
many changes, owing to the fact that
IL was late in the season when the
Troy franchise was transferred to Har-
risburg. Cockill has gotten in touch
with number of young players and
has many of them under contract. He
has also announced that practically all
of his old players are on the market
and that he is willing to talk trade or
sale with any manager
Mike O'Neill at Syracuse, has been on
the still-hunt for pitchers, and a couple
of infelders Mikes club last year
romped off with a pennant and the
leader of the Stars does not figure that
rhe must make many changes to be in
the fight all the way this year.
Chick" Hartman has been signing
players right and left for the Bingham
ton team. Hartman has landed some
good intielders and some fine pitching
talent. He has several old players to
fall back on, but his aim has been to
replace the old with ne, wmaterial
wherever possible and practical

Hassett Club Plays
Juniata College Tonight

Tomorrow evening the Juniata Col
lege team will meet the Hassett School
of Gymnastics five at this city on
Cathedral Hall floor. This will un-
doubtedly be one of the best games
of the season as Juniata College has
one of the strongest basketball teams
in the State this year. and have been
winning most of their games on trips
away from home. The Hassett five
were put through a hard signal prac-
tice last evening and are in fine fighting
trim. ItSis thought that NJ. Gerdes,
who has been out of the game. for
some time, suffering from a badly
lacerated hand, may be in shape for
the battle. Governor Brumbaugh has
been invited to attend the game as
Juniata College is his Alma Mater.

CALHOUN SETS PACE IN
NEW YORK STATE LEAGUE;
SIX MANAGERS ARE BUSY

Six of the eight managers in the
New York State League are energetically
at work rebuilding their clubs and
strengthening up the weak spots for
the 1917 pennant race. A wholesale
wedding out process is in vogue in
these six cities.
In Elmira and Utica baseball affairs
are in a much muddled shape. The re-
building of those clubs has not as yet
been undertaken and probably will not
be started until some way is found
to rid the teams of their financial
troubles. Fans in Elmira, aided by
businessmen, are striving to save the
franchise. In Utica, the Schram estate
and William f. Donahue. the present
owners, have the franchise for sale.
They are holding their franchise as an
asset worth $4,000 and no one appears
willing to pay the price. The present
owners, however, will not continue in
the baseball business.
Calhoun Sets Pace
red Calhoun has been setting the
pace for the State League managers in
the way lie has been rebuilding the
Wilkes-barre team. Calhoun has been
hustling throughout the winter and has
rebuilt the entire team, with the eXcep-
tion of an infielder and an outfielder,
both of whom he claims he will get
later on.
Bill Coughlin has been doing a lot of
work lately in getting the Scranton
club in readiness for the State League
hight. Coughlin does not have to re-
build the entire club, but there is weed
ing out here and there to be done, and
Coughlin is doing it in a systematic
way, and in a way that ought to be
productive of results. Coughlin holds
high hopes of getting relief from sew
eral OF his major league friends when
the big league managers begin to cut
