four highwaymen who had formed

"I am 30 years young and have about four or five years of major league baseball in me yet. If 1t hadn't been for a disagreement with Jimmy Callahan in 1914,I never would have been out of the big league. I weigh 15 pounds less today than when l re- ported to Connie Mack at Jacksonville last spring. and I know positively that I am in for a good season."
 Ping Rodie was speaking. He had engaged in two strenuous workouts at the Macon ball yard with all the enthusiasm of a schoolboy who has ambitions to make his school team, and Bodie did not hesitate to say that he was ready at that moment to play more baseball.
 q have always liked to play the game,' continued Ping, land for that reason it never has become difficult for me to give my best efforts all the time. Just look at last season. I came very close to getting in the 300 class and bet that I get there this year. I did my best last year, but somehow or other imagine that I will get better breaks with club that has first division stamp on it. If I miss that 300 class, it will not be through lack of effort"

CHAMPS LOSE IN
 TENNIS DOUBLES

New York, April 6.-The grit and pluck of Frederick B. Alexander over balanced the handicap of his injured ankle in the semi-f1nal round matches of the national indoor lawn tennis championship tournament On the board courts of the Seventh Regiment Armory yesterday. By sheer strategy of the most brilliant character the hero of the Davis cup matches suc- cessfulEy repulsed the net assaults of William T. Tilden, 2d, in the singles. It was terrific battle, from which the veteran warrior of the courts emerged, lame, although a victor, to the score 7-5, 10-8.
 The gruelling of the two deuce sets was more than Alexander, who badly Wednesday, could undergo. It was not possible for him to enter into the furious rallies of the doubles with the keen, decisive energy that had pre- viously been displayed in his play.
 He worked away with grim determf nation, always splendidly supported by pr. William Rosenbaum, his partner in the holding of the national doubles title, but the attack of Tilden and Ce. cil Donaldson, the wonder boy of the courts, was too severe, and the cham pions went down to defeat to the tally of 6-4, 1-6, 12-10.
 Alexander and Dr. Rosenbaum fought out the match to the limit of their resources. They led at 5-2 on games and at 40-15 on points in the final set. With only one stroke sep arating them from a triumph, and one that they had courageously battled to win, Tilden by his whirlwind smash ing changed to a reversal. As the set heightened to six times at games all Alexander weakened. The pace was more than his injury could bear. Dr. Rosenbaum gallantly attempted to fill up the gaps in the court. He did well. It was a futile effort against Tilden, who always seemed to have more re- serve forces,s so that he eventually con- quered the title holders.

RAIN PREVENTS
 CAME AT DALLAS

Dallas, Tex, April 6-Heinie zim rested on his laurels yesterday. Having pulled the wool over the eyes of Iris Speaker by deliberately walking and talking the Cleveland wonder far from the safety of third base for quick throw and put out yesterday in the first game of the series with the Giants, picturesque Heinie's coup was allowed to soak in a little deeper yes terday afternoon because of a rain storm that meant millions to the farmers hereabouts and nothing in the life of ball player.
 The two teams repaired to Gardner Park prepared to stage the drama, Baseball Brother Against Brother, but the mud was ankle deep around the infield and the second game wan call ed off. Last night both organizations left for Houston, where two games are to be played on the Houston grounds.
 Perhaps, for the sake of compari- sons both McGraw and Rowland re- gret that they will not encounter the Houston team. This bush league nine has been going like a prairie fire of late, having shut out the Worlds that is the best that the Sox are going to do, the Giants and the Clevelands want to know now so as to sort of eliminate the Windy City crowd from their 1918 troubles.

FISTIC HISTORY

There have been a number of ter rible Turks" in the wrestling game, and one of the best of them was the giant Karakanoff. This particular sub- ject of the Sultan had been touring America, posing as the worlds cham pion grappler, until twelve years ago today, when he was introduced to an Iowa farmer who answered to the name of Frank Gotch.
 The meeting took place in Mon treaI on April 6, 1906, and the cere- mony of introduction lasted less than a quarter of an hour. Then the Ter rible Turk went away from there, totally disillusioned as to his ability as a wrestler. Gotch and the Turk met during the course of an interna- tional wrestling tournament held in Montreal, and the disciple of the Prophet had been eating infidels alive until Gotch appeared on the scene. With his appetite whetted for moro infidel meat, the Turk went at Gotch hammer and tongs- He didn't know lot of English, but he had mastered the word enough" and he soon had occasion to use it. That victory dem onstrated Gotch's right to the world' championship, for the Ottoman was a grappler of the "rough-house" type, and Gotch had made him look like a novice at his own game. Two years later, almost to a day, Gotch won a clear title to the worlds champion ship by defeating Hackenschmidt in Chicago. He held this title until his recent death.

DODGERS TAKE
 ONE FROM SOX

Houston, Tex, April 6-The Dodg- CTS celebrated Jack Coombs' day by trimming the Red Sox, to 3, in a snappy game of ball, making the series ' to in favor of the Boston team. Threatening clouds kept the crowd away, but Colby Jack got a big send off from his Palestine fellow citi- zens. No unusual ceremonies featur- ed the celebration, except that the neighbors of George Whitman of the Red Sox, who claims Houston as his home town, pre:Gnted the Boston left fielder with bouquet.
 The game was the tenth of the series and the third victory for the Dodgers. They made all their runs off Sam Jones in the last three in nings. Olson, Daubert, Myers and Schmandt were the swatting kings, the four polling out all the hits. Olson continued the batting streak he start ed at Austin by gaining four more hits yesterday and walked once. That gives him eight hits in nine times at bat. Daubert and Myers got three apiece and Schmandt two.
 Schmandt is doing better with every game, and looks like he would fill Cutshaw's shoes. He handled everything in the field yesterday with out a tumble, beside saving Wheat @ couple of errors by backing up wild throws on steals. He beat out a bunt and poled a clean single to left in four chances.
 Pfeffer went into the box with the Sox three runs ahead and blanked the American Leaguers with three scattered hits in four innings The big slabman had lots of stuff He worked the Boston sluggers with a deadly low ball over the outside corner.

Lindsey Beats DeweyU of Refuses Meet On Housatonie
Race Arranged For May II
 Called off by Penn. College

New Haven, April 6.-The Univer- sity of Pennsylvania has cancelled the boat races which were arranged with Yale for May Il because of the plan of the Quaker oarsmen to take part in the regatta on the Severn. The twD events were to christen the new course on the Housatonic river, above Derby. There is still a possibility that Yale will go to Philadelphia to row the Quakers on the SchuylkiN on May Il.
 Yale has challenged Pennsylvania, Columbia, Princeton, and Cornell to races on the Housatonic on any Sat urday during May, but. has not yet received definite responses from any of these crews. The uncertainty in the intercollegiate rowing situation has been caused because of the pro posal to hold a large regatta on the Severn. Yale, Harvard and Princeton have declined to row there.
 The Red and Blues reason for de- clining the invitation from the Ellis Is clear enough. They have three away trombone races and think three are sufficient. On April 20 the Quakers go to Annapolis to engage in Shcr anual lIual contest against the Mid shipmen, and they go there again on May IS for the American Rowing as sociation regatta. And in the mean time they will have engaged in the i C-hilds cup race on Lake Carnegle' May 4. To go to the Housatonlc Tn addition would be rather too tall an order. This situation finds Yale 1n some perplexity.
 Apparently her one established en- | gagement is that with Harvard TOT June i. The Blue wanted Princeton to come to the Housatonic on May lS, and the Tigers couldn't go because or the Faculty ruling against regattas away from home this season. Nassau in turn wanted Yale to come to Princeton on May 25 anl1 join in the Princeton Cornell regatta. This 1ale has been loath to do because or the Harvard race on June l.
 There is some thought here of Yale accompanying Pennsylvania to An nanolis on April 20, but this Is merely tentative. In fact everything aoout the Yale program except the Harvard regatta appears to be tentative. The trouble seems to be that Hyatt, the Yale crew leader, was so busy man aging the basketball team that when he was able to turn his attention to rowing affairs the various universities had arranged their dates with one an- other. It is to be hoped that some way of adjusting whatever difficulties may exist at Yale be found.

WILLARD STARTS
 TRAINING WORK

Chicago, April 6.-Jess Willard be- gan training yesterday. The cham pion did some rope skipping, shadow boxing and a little bag punching, then boxed four rounds with Reb Russell. The champion readily ad- mitted he is in anything but good condition.
 It didn't take long to bring out the precipitation on the big fellow, and he puffed hard when the boxing was at an end. Russell walloped him several times in the stomach, and Jess ad- mitted in the rubbing room that the punches stung.
 "How easy it is for fellow to get out of condition" said Jess. T nat urally believed it wouldn't take much to work myself into shape, but I can now see that it will necessitate a lot of hard work to get me into condition. I need a lot of running and boxing"
 The champion will do road work in the morning and spend the afternoon in the gym. Handball will form a big part of his daily training. He is now in search of a sparring partner.

BILLY GIBSON IS
 AFTER FRANCHISE

Billy Gibson, manager of Benny Leonard, lightweight champion of the world, wants a franchise in the new International League in the hope that he can establish club in the Bronx.
 The territorial rights of the Yankees and the Giants stand in the way, un- der the ruling of organized baseball that clubs in any city are protected six miles outside the city limits.
 In order to overcome this barrier it will be necessary for Gibson to get the consent of Col. Jacob Ruppert, part owner of the Yankees, and of Harry N. Hampstead, president of the New York Giants.
 There is some doubt on this score, but Gibson is working hard to get the approval of the directors of the new circuit in order that he can make the attempt.
 The owners of the new league were Biltmore, and the work will continue for several days. The time is short and a schedule must be arranged, to say nothing of a hundred and one other details.
 It was said that there will be no dearth of players, as there are plenty of men now out of employment to draw from, and men of much ability and experience. too.
 It was decided to wrestle with pen- nies in the payment of the war tax, and the following scale of prices was adopted: 2S cents, 35 cents, 83 cents and $1.10.
 Jim Price, president of the Newark club last year, is still in the West, and Newarks position in the new league is not yet definitely assured.
 Optimism seemed to be general among those in attendance, and a feeling was strong that the new or ganization will make a good start this year in spite of the war.
