KANSAS CYCLONE TO
MEET LOCAL MAT MAN

Jack Price, the Kansas grappler who
meets Joe Turner in a finish match
Thursday night is in hard training at
George Bothners gymnasium in New
York and has wired Manager Nc
George that he is already down to the
required weight. 15s pounds. and feels
confident that he will return to his
home with the middle-weight cham
p!onship title tucked under his belt.
The Kansas grappler is undoubtly
one of the classiest wrestlers that
has ever appeared on the local mat.
and while Turner may be a little
more experienced he will have a hard
time overcoming his young opponent.
Both men have signed articles and
posted a forfeit for weight and they
are about evenly matched in science
and speed and it looks as though the
man that has the greatest endurance
will be declared the winner.
In order to start the match early as
possible the show will be over at ten
o'clock and the wrestlers should be
on the mat not latter than ten fifteen.
Accommodations are being made to
accommodate the largest crowd of
the season.

CLEVER RUSE
DEFEATS PENN
At Least Such Is the Claim
Made by Philadelphia
Rowing Scribe.

The Philadelphia Inquirer. Of yes
terday printed the following:
Penn was defeated by the Navy
on the Severn River on Saturday, but
the prestige OF the Red and Blue
eight and Joe Wright is not dimmed
in the least by the fiSSt setback to
the best crew that Penn ever has
boasted.
The Navy eight had both weight
and height on the Red and Blue eight
and many critics think that IL the
race had been over the regular Hen
ley course the result would have been
much different. II was pointed out
by many of the crew experts that
were on hand for the race that the
Red and Blue would triumph over any
eight in the country over the Henley
course. but the two-mile race is a
little long for the slight Quaker eight.
Weight alone tells in a long race
and that is where the Quakers were
wanting.
Coach Glendon Of the Navy at
the last moment decided to enter both
his varsity and Junior crew in the
varsity race. and this no doubt SPELL
ed defeat for the Red and Blue oars
men. 1t worked just the same way
that famous track coaches have BEEN
working the trick in past years. A
good man is entered in a race with
another good man from a rival col
lege. The coach, realizing that the
other lad is just as good as his own
nrotege, takes advantage OF the fact
that he is home and can enter as
many men as possible. and enters one
or two extra men with instructions
TO kill off the out-of-town runner by
setting an extra fast pace. Then as
the rival becomes weary of a fast
pace and quickly tires he is passed
by the man who has conserved his
energy.
1T was a favorite trick Of Mike
Murphy. while Jack Moakley is an
other famous coach who uses the
trick to advantage. 1t was this trick
that spelled the downfall of the Red
and Blue on Saturday."

GAVE MAJORS MANY
Portland Club Has Produced Host
of Material for Big Leagues.

New York. May 20.-The Portland
club of the Pacific Coast League has
sent number of corking good ball
players to the major leagues, and
Manager Walter McCredie. now with
Salt Lake, says that IL it were not
for the war he would have a COM
plete team Of former Portland play
ers in the majors who could hold
their own with any team.
The war. he says, prevented
Catcher Baldwin advancing to the
majors this year. His former Port
land team, minus the catcher, would
be made up about as follows:
Pitchers Stanley Coveleskie and Bob
Groom of Cleveland; Bill James Of
Detroit, Mays of the Red Sox, Gregg
of the Athletics. Byron Houck of
the. Browns. Infielders Peckinpaugh
of the Yankees, Olsen and Ward of
Brooklyn. Bancroft of the Phillies
and Hollocher of the Cubs; Out
fielders Graney OF the Indians. He'll
man of the Tigers and Williams of
the Browns. Ward and Williams,
though. are now in the army.

UNABLE TO OBTAIN
MORE HORSEHIDE

There is some speculation here as
to whether baseball must suffer as
a result of an order just put through
by the hide and leather control
board that horsehide is to be used
no more for baseball coverings. The
leather that has been used for this
purpose in the past is to he used
in the future for gloves for the SOL
diers.
Virtually all leather which has
been used either in making the
baseballs or the gloves and protec-
tors of players has been comman-
deered by the government. The or
der Of the board is made applicable
to the owners and handlers OF hides,
assembly and tAnnery agents and
the manufa cturers
Not less than 1000. 900. 900 pairs Of
gloves for the use of soldiers will
be turned out in the next twelve
months. according to plans under
consideration now. The board has
already let contracts for l,oOO.ooO pairs
of army shoes.

NEW INTERNATIONAL
SUES FOR $4,000

New York, May 2O-The Interna-
tional League. through Charles T.
Chaplin. chairman of the board of
directors. has instructed its attor-
ney. Charles H. Knapp. of Balti-
more. to bring suit against H. Clay
Smith of Danville, Ill, for a claim
of $4,000 alleged to be the balance
for the purchase of the Newark
franchise of the old International
League by Smith back in 1916.
Mr.. Chaplin, who was in the city
yesterday, admitted that the case
had been placed in the hands of
Mr.. Knapp who was instructed to
proceed toward collection as quickly
as possible. He is acting in the
matter because of his vested pow
ers relative to the disbanded Class
AA circuit. When Ed Barrow re-
signed last winter Mr.. Chaplin, as
chairman of the board of directors,
assumed the responsibilities of the
executive up to- the time of dis
bandment. The present case grew
out of negotiations to which Mr..
Chaplin fell heir.

RED CROSS DAY

Ban B. Johnson Contributes
$500 to the Worthy
Cause.

The entire receipts for the first
game of the series with the Detroit
club on Friday afternoon will be
turned over to the American BED
Cross by the Washington Baseball
Club. Members of the Commercial
Club as a citizens committee start
ticket selling campaign this morn
ing, with hopes in view of dispos-
ing of 10000 pasteboards to local
baseball fans, who will take ad-
vantage OF this opportunity to wit
ness a major league baseball game,
and at the same time aid the
worthy cause of the Red Cross.
Ban b Johnson, president Of the
American League. who is a visitor
in our midst, started the ball a
rolling fH baseballdom yesterday,
( by contributing 500 to the great

A gala day is planned for all

the Marine Barracks to render sell

Five hundred thousand dollars Is
Washington's quota in this present

fan who can spare the time will take
advantage Of Red Cross Day at the

As a side issue and attraction, but
one that can not be promised. Walter
Johnson may be on the fire hill for the
Nationals. The smoke-ball king has
been under the weather since his 1S-

and as the Nationals are at present in

Take First from Gred Cross Day Racing
Gedeon's War Club Helps
Browns Defeat Nationals
Fiery Cast-of Of Grifmen
Bats St. Louis to a
4-to-2 Victory.

Joe Gedeon, one Of Clark Griffith's
castoffs, got sweet revenge yesterday.
when his weeping willow echoed three
base blows recorded in the defeat Of
the Nationals at the American League
Ball Park in the first game Of the
series by to 2 count.
It was Gedeon's triple to right CEN
ter In the third inning that gave the
Brownies their first two tallies, while
his double in the ninth added another.
He not only used the willow to OBJ
tain revenge, but In the fielding end
he featured in a fast double play and
sensational assist in the seventh in
ming which halted a rally staged by
the Nationals.
Urban Shocker. who worked for the
Brownies, has probably pitched his
last game under the big tent. as the
former Yankee spit ball artist has
been ordered to report to Uncle Sans
national army for the bigger game
over there. Urban did himself proud
in this final battle, as he set Grifrs
sIugging clan down with four hits,
one of these being Of the scratchy
variety.
Opposed to Shocker was Harry Har-
per, but the Hackensack truckman
was not at his best, as after five
innings Of toiling he was relieved by
Mollie Craft to make room for Earl
Yingling as a pinch hitter. Harry
was hit hard in the third and fourth.
when the brown-legged tribe obtained
three runs. Craft went well in the
utility role until the final, when Aus
tins double, a force-out and a dou-
Bile by Gedeon gave them their final
count
Shotton obtained the first blow off
Shocker when he hit a hard one to
Gerbes in his initial appearance at
bat but there was no scoring, as
q Shanks' efforts resulted in a double
play.
The Nationals obtained their taIlies
in the seventh when Shanks got life
on Sisters amateur error. Judge
doubled to left center, placing Hank
at third. from where he scored on
Morgan's infield out Judge came
over the dish on Fosters hit to GEN.

came with one down in the ninth.
when MORGAN singled to center. but
Foster and Joe Casey were unable
to keep the rally in motion.
A base on balls to Tobins. Sisters
single to left followed by Gedeon's
triple gave the Browns a lead of
two runs in the third. They added
one more in the fourth when Shanks
allowed Smiths hit to bounce through
his legs. Nunamaker flew to right

third base, attempted to take ad-
vantage Of Shotton's wing, but was
easily nipped three yards off the
plate. Shocker was passed and went

AVIATRICES TO
MEET IN RACE
Famous. Bird-Women, Miss
Law andMiss Stinson, Set
tie Title Memorial Day.

By far the most sensational race
ever participated in by women will
be staged at the famous sheepshead
Bay Race Track, Memorial Day.
May so.
For the first time in the history
of aviation, two women aviators
will meet in a test of skill and
speed.
Miss Ruth Law, perhaps the most
famous of all bird women. and Miss
Katherine Stinson, one of the most
brilliant of aviatrices, will show of
their wares at Sheepshead. The
event is advertised for the cham
pionship of the universe and the
woman who wins will have little
competition unless some lady from
Mars should happen to drop in to
challenge her right to the title.
The two wonders of the air have
never met in competition, although
both have been attracting world
wide attention by their exploits for
several years.
Both girls have often excelled
male fiiers in their phenomenal
stunts above the clouds. Miss Law
holds the world record for a non
stop flight, having flown from Chi
cago to Erie, Pa, a distance of $50
miles without decending. She was
recently given a permit from the
War Department to fly anywhere in
the United States, and will soon
start a nationwide tour for the Red
Cross and other patriotic causes.
Miss Stinson was a sensation be-
fore she was 20. She defeated
Dario Resta in an earth and air race
a few years ago. and since has
greatly improved her air mastery.
She is said to be the first woman
to undertake the aerial somersault.
and holds the world record for con-
secutive loops. Her distance rec
ord is a run from Buffalo to Wash
inGton, via New York.
