DODGERS REJECT PLAN

Brooklyn Players Claiming to Be Pa-
 triotic, Vote Against Military Train ing Plan Adopted by Other Teams.
 Hot Springs, Ark, March 20.-With stengel and Wheat at practice yes- terday morning the Dodgers looked like a 25 per cent. stronger ball team. Wheat took his old position in left field and Stengel played center. The game was abbreviated, lasting only six innings. the victory going to Mill lcr's team by to 1.
 At meeting of the players, held in their hotel yesterday, they took a
 vote on the military training ques-
 ton, and 1t was defeated overwhelm- ingly. Although they all declared they were patriotic, they considered that, inasmuch as they had only a week more to remain here. in that time they could hardly learn the 'rudi- mentary part of warfare. | A vote of thanks was rendered to Sergeant Major Jesse Trontgla for his offer to drill the Dodgers.
 Buck Wheat has had only one con- ference with President Ebbets since his arrival on Saturday, but nothing 1 came of the talk, both player and owner refusing to move an inch. Ii would not be surprising if Wheat left for his home in a few days if there is no new development in his case stengel also has only seen Ebbett once since his arrival. and then only a friendly greeting was exchanged.

There are very few fight fans in this section, who are not acquaint- ed with Waltzs prowess.
 In. the semi-final, a recent acquisi- tiOn to the candidates for place on the Hardware city voting list in the , person of Bobby Reimer. will mingle with Dave Medar for twelve rounds.

YALE TRACK TEAM
 LOOKS VERY STRONG
Former Freshmen Stars Will En-
 hance Championship Chances

New Haven, March 20.-When Wesley Oler, the former Olympic champion, urged the Yale track team candidates two weeks ago, to stop short of nothing but an intercollegiate championship this season, he voiced the feeling at Yale that the team will prove stronger. better balanced, and more formidable, than any in dozen years. The addition of Rod man, de Cernea, Potter, Stanley, Otis and Niles of last seasons freshman team, has given it Q wealth of new material, and the fact that Johnny Overton and Johnny Farwell, the all-round stars of the team. are in record breaking form in the distance runs and hurdles, has added to it's impressiveness.
 Yale has remarkably promising sprinting possibilities in de Cernea and Niles. Both have run close to even time in the 100 yards and have clipped twenty-two seconds in the furlong event. Heaten Treadway, who has failed to defeat Eddie Tescher of Harvard twice, but who scored fifth in the intercollegiates in the 100 yards and fourth in the 220- yard races. will figure heavily in all the Yale meets this spring and Ricketts and Charley, Stewart are all point-scoring possibilities.
 Yale will be weak in the middle TpN rr,N aSpfe m Ia Davis and Fennimore Cooper are in the intercollegiate competition. Barker in the half-mile is the only Eli possibility and he can hardly
 hope for better than second in the dual meets and will run in his best
 form if he gets inside the scoring at the intercollegiates.
 Aside from Overton, Yale's dis
 tance material is not impressive. all ithough Stanley in the two-mile race
 is a possible point winner. In the Ifeld events Yale is unusually strong
 Rodman and E.. G. Grant in the high Hump are six-foot leapers. Grant il good for twenty-two feet in tho

The Yankee regulars lashed out with punishing bats yesterday, at Ma con, Ga, and won a close and aggres- sively fought game with the second team by to 6. They needed a run in the ninth inning to win, and they made 1t. The tally resulted from hits by Pipp and Peck, who led the foray with three smashes each, and the weak first-base playing of Baumann, who made one wild throw and didn't show much interest in a burning grounder which Pipp drove past him.

The shifty New Yorker was far to speedy and clever for Williams, who exhibited flashes of his od-time form in only two of the rounds. Medar merely stood of and hit the local Italian when and where he chose, but took especial pains to see that he did no fighting at close quarters. Medar used a lightning left hand with good eff feet, piling up point after point from the clang of the bell in the opening round. Medar was entitled to honors in eight of the rounds, two went to Williams, while two were about even- ly distributed.
