Bald Heads Fine Mark
For BOche Gunners

ST. Louis, Mo.-The obvious tar
get that a bald head offers to Teuton
was assigned by an
army officer here as a vital reason
why men minus hair on their heads
should be exempted from. military
service unless they can be used in
some branch that does not call for
exposure to the enemy.
Capt. c. E. Jenkins, in charge of
an ambulance company at Camp
Funston, gave this. advice when
speaking to members of local ex-
emption boards.
"Bald-headed men are not alto
gether welcome" Captain Jenkins
said. They present a shining tar
get for the enemy and besides they
can not withstand cold. They would
make admirable decoys but thus far
we have not felt the need of using
hairless heads for that purpose"
Further advice offered by the
captain was that men with index
fingers missing or with as many as
two toes missing should not be acs
cepted.

Plans to Conserve" in
Court Trial by Wire

Brighton. Colo.-With food, fuel
and other commodities subjected to
intensive saving campaigns, con
servation" is the popular watchword
in the Rocky Mountain region, The
latest plan oT'conserve" has result
ed in the firstN"court trial by wire"
on record.
Conservation of time, money, en-
ergy and fees" is what District At
torney Samuel w. Johnson terms the
new wrinkle. Johnson's jurisdiction
extends over several counties adjac-
ent to Denver and he experiences
considerable difficulty in being pres
ent in the various towns of the coun-
ties when several cases are set for
the same day in different courts
So the busy prosecutor decided to
use the telephone.
Sitting in his main headquarters
in Denver, with a telephone receiver
to his ear, Johnson listened to coun-
sci for defense plead before, a judge
in the local court here for the dis
charge of his client, a woman charg-
ed with 'bootlegging." When At
torney Michael Waldron had finish
ed his case for the defendant, John
son picked up the transmitter and
presented evidence over the wire OF
sufficient weight to convict the de-
fendant, who was fined 500 and
costs.
Johnson declares his new method
of handling cases will also result in
the saving of much gasoline, as he
can avoid travelling from town to
town in the buzz wagon"

ST. MARY'S TEAM
READY FOR WORK
Out For Amateur Champion
ship of'Dauphin County;
Booking Games

Baseball plans for amateur teams
got start in Steelton yesterday. The
st, Marys Catholic Club team will
be in the field again, and stronger
than ever. Last season this organi-
zation was the first to come out with
def to other amateur teams, and
announcement has been made at
the go off that the ST. Mary's team
is out for the championship of Dau-
phin county.
There will be nineteen men in the
squad when outdoor practice starts
In the meantime the future-great
diamond stars will keep in form
with indoor practice. Manager Mich
olas p. Zerance stated that the only
big star lost from the lineup will be
Starsinic. the plucky shortstop. He
is working in Washington, d. c., for
the United States government.
To Meet All Corners
His place will probably be filed in
by George Zerance, third baseman.
Manager Zerance would like to hear
from all first class amateur teams de-
string games. He can be reached by
mail, addressing Box 40, Steelton.
The opening game will probably be
played with Mercersburg Academy,
at that place. AS has been the GUS
tom in past seasons, games will be
played at Steelton when grounds are
available. This team will again be
the representative amateur organiza-
ton from that place.

New York. Feb. 22.-Abel r. XII
Wat, the former Irish-American A.
z. champion, who showed at the
Millrose A. A. games that he still
has a good bit of running left in him,
Is through with athletics for the
present and probably for all time.
kiviat is in the Coast Artillery COM
pany at Fort Hamilton, and the pre-
sumption was that he had plenty of
time to train and condition himself
for a strenuous season on the board
floor and cinder path.
But Kivie knocked that idea on
the head yesterday when he told
officials Of the Metropolitan Associa-
tion of the A. A. u. that he wouldn't
be able to start In the one-mile race
at the Preparedness games in the
Forty-seventh Regiment Armory

Big FIVE FIRST,
THEN HASSETTS
Manager Gordon w. Ford
Has Independents Signed
Up For Championship

With the Harrisburg Indepen-
cents, Hassetts and Rosewoods in a
series of games for the local cham
pionship, the basketball season
promises to have an interesting
hnish. Tomorrow night Manager
Gordon w. Ford will lineup his team
against the Big Five of Lebanon.
Inc latter are strong claimants for
the Central Pennsylvania champion
snip ever since the team started.
Lebanon was late in getting into
the field. but since play began, the
Big Five is cutting some figure. Most
OF the victories have been on their
nome floor. The Independents with a
patched lineup was given a bump by
the Lebanon toSsers sometime ago.
Manager Ford is of the opinion
that there will be a different story
TO tell tomorrow night when he has
his regulars in operation.
TO Announce Plans
Plans for the series with the Has
Setts will be announced tomorrow
night. 1t is understood there will be
three games and all games will be
played on Chestnut street auditorium
floor. 1t is also said there will be two
referees with Clint White as the
NillCls w I1tt - "Oih 1915 btNiA SUITS
factory. except to a few fans who,
II is said, found fault with his ruling
on fouls, but later learned that White
was right.
The Rosewoods have not learned
what the Independents will do in
their case. Hassett took game from
the Hill champs when three regulars
were out of the lineup. 1t is under
stood that the Rosewood manage
ment has since made arrangements
and will play the Hassetts and Inde-
pendents a series, if satisfactory ar
rangements are made. Rosewood is
unfortunate in not having a floor
of their own and for this reason play
most of the games out of the city.
However, Notwithstanding the handi-
cap along this line, Rosewood is
ready to meet in championship
series.

Tarsus tossers are somewhat sore
over a cancellation by the p. r. r.
Y. NJ. c. A., team. Those railroad
champs will have to complete the
series If they want to figure in cage
honors this season. Local cage en-
thusiasts who have been watching
these teams, hope game will be ar
ranged for the near future.
Just now Steelton is showing great
activity in bowling sport. The Beth
lehem Steel Company League series
is being closely watched. Before
the schedule is complete, there will
be some other leagues in operation.
Then will come some inter-city con-
test, Harrisburg bowlers may have
TO show fast pace to win title re-
cognition.
Every regular member of the
Brooklyn Dodgers, with the eXcep-
ton of Jake Daubert, who is still
the proud owner of a $4,000 war
contract, has had his salary subma-
rined by President Charles Ebbets.
Even Wilbert Robinson, who did so
much in bringing the National Lea
que championship pennant to Brook
lyn TWO years ago, consented to ac-
cept a cut in his compensation for
the coming baseball campaign. Sew
eral of the cuts were for more than
500. But despite this. Robinson is
confident that he will have all of his
players signed before he starts for
the training camp at Hot Springs.

bonus demanded by Grover Cleve-
land Alexander before he will con-

CENTRAL WINNER
In FAST GAME
ON YORK FLOOR

In a spectacular and speedy game
last night Central staged a real
comeback and defeated York. so to
"a. The game was a real exhibition
of good basketball and was filled
with thrills from beginning TO end.
The old Blue and Gray spirit was
much in evidence at all times. The
Old Central from the start to the
finish. More glory came because the
game was played at York.
Every man on the team was a star.
Frank. Fields and Wright did the
scoring.
Central outplayed York in every
department of the game. The Blue
and Gray outscored them from the
field and from the foul line and had
It all over their opponents when it
came to teamwork.
Great Offensive Work
Centrars offensive was greatly i'm
proved and many a time it baffled
the York guards. but failed to score
through poor shooting. The two
forwards, Goodiel and Wright, show
I'd more form than at any time this
year. Wright was one of CentraPs
biggest stars. His scoring seemed
to give Central the necessary pep"
because that started them and from
then on Central kept the lead.
Frank Sets Pace
Frank, at center, easily outplayed
his man, Mclaughlin. He outjumped
him every time and scored four field
goals to McLaughlin's one. He made
four goals from the field and twelve
out of fourteen fouls. BY scoring
only twenty points Franks record
drops about a point. Captain Wolfe
and Fields played their positions ad-
mirably.
Mclaughlin Opened
Mclaughlin opened the game with
field goal. Ginrich shot a foul.
Frank missed a foul. Frank made
two points. Ginrich scored his first
neld goal. Frank made two fouls
Wright then got busy and made
pretty shot from the side of the floor,
scoring Centrals first field goal. AL

able kidding done in respect to these
two men. Metzger is in the welter-
weight class and Gump is a heavy
weight. However, Gump got cold
feet and wouldn't have anything to
do with his challenger. At this point
collection was taken up. The out
flow of money was so great that
the wrestling mat had to be brought
into play to hold all the money. The
proceeds amounted to nearly $50.
In the fourth bout Young Krow
and "Baldy" Baldwin fought four
rounds TO a draw. Neither boy had
the advantage in any round. They
weighed in at 145 pounds.
Isaacman shades Brown
In the next bout waldo" Isaac
man got the better of Shorty Brown
in four fast rounds. In the second
round he sent Brown to the mat with
a left uppercut. The next two
rounds Isaacman had the best of the
argument all the time. and the final
gong Just saved Brown from going
the ten-second route.
The next mill saw Lefty Finn and
Al SINNERS doing some fancy stunts
These two boys thought they were
dancing instead of fighting and the
result was a draw.
As a special feature, n fifteen
minute wrestling match was staged
Boilermaker Jones and Stanley Look
er put in fifteen minutes of strenu-
Gus work, neither one getting a fall
although LOCKER got two or three
holds that nearly put Jones down
Jones is pretty clever in breaking
holds and but for this fact would
have gone down to defeat.
Big Men Present
Among the large crowd some of the
shining lights were: L. w. Smith
master mechanic and president of the
NJ. P. A. A; II, B. Lott, genera
foreman, and Foremen C. II. Rut-
ledge, J. C. Dorwart, C. w. Wise
giver. Isaiah Reese and w. II. II
Beckley. The referee was Tom Hoff,
man and the timekeeper was Nose
Miller. A. a. Delosia, of Altoona
boxing promoter of the NJ. p. A. A
of that place. was looking over the
participants in the fights with the
view of taking them to Altoona tc
scrap with some of his boys.
The meet was one big success
Shows are held every two weeks fol

that of last night.

Motive Power ROxinS
Pleases Big Crowd
Nearly One Thousand Fans Witness Best Ring Show
Ever Held by Railroad .Athletes-Fnal
Bout Brings Knockout

Under the direction of Tom Hoff-
man, boxing manager for the Motive
Power Athletic Association of the
Philadelphia division, Pennsylvania
railroad. and w. II. Runk, general
chairman. the best meet that has yet
been held was staged last night in
their hall at Seventh and Harris
streets. All participants in the fights
were local boys, employees in the var
ious branches of the motive power
department. The boxers were evenly
matched and the management is to
be congratulated on the clean sports
manship displayed.
Windup Results in Is. o.
In the windup the feature bout of
the evening, Young Schiff, who has
had some ring. experience, knocked
out Fighting Lehmer in the fourth
round. This fight was a lively tilt
from the gong until the finish. The
first three rounds were anybody's
fight, but in the fourth Young Schiff
showed his ring generalship and sent
his opponent to the mat for the final
count. Both boys weighed in. Schiff
Weighing 130 pounds and Lehmer
1888. This was the only knockout of
the evening.
In the opener whirlwind Haywood
and X. Q. Johnson, 145-pound boys,
started out to fight six rounds, but
both were out of wind at the end of
the fifth and the referee called the
bout. 1t was about even up all
through.
The second bout was a good exhi-
bition OF scientific boxing. Boiler
maker Jones and Scrapper Mann
fought four fast rounds. Both men
were evenly matched and the result
was a draw, although Jones had a
shade the better when it came to
hard hitting. Mann evened this up
by aggressive footwork.
GiveIer Draws Blood
The next bout was between Bat
Ting GiveIer and Gunboat Drake,
145-pound boys. In the third round
Giveler caught Drake mapping and
sent stiff right to the point of the
nose, making the blood flow freely.
This stopped Drake for a minute, but
when the final gong sounded both
boys were going strong and the
bout resulted in a draw,
Between the bouts Announcer Mike
Newlin announced a challege from
Wesley Metzgar to Sammy Gump. 1t
seems that there has been consider

The fact that Alexander already is
doing preliminary training at Hot
Spring, however, indicates that the
bit pitcher has hopes his demands
will be granted.
Up to date no real reason why
the Phillies let Alexander go has
been given. Perhaps someone will
tell the story some day. Rube Wad-
dell and Bugs Raymond had their
days. A complete history of these
famous twilers was long time
coming.
