Miss Bjurstedt Wins in
Tennis Semi-Final Match

New York. Feb. 9.-While there
were no upsets in the semihnals OF
the women's invitation tennis tourna-
ment at the Heights Casino yester-
day. III ores in two matches fur
nisI-I surprises. In the singles,
Mss Molla Bjurstedt, national cham
p!on, easily defeated Mrs. David c.
Mills, Go, 81. and Miss Eleanor Goss
eliminated Miss Florence Ballin, 60,
So.
The result of the Bjurstedt-Mills
match was expected. Followers or
the tournament believed that the ma
tional champion would win easily
Many expected Miss Goss would
reach the final at the expense of Miss
Balm. But few, if any, expected
Miss Goss to score such an over
whelming victory.
In the doubles Miss Marie Wagner
and Mrs. David Mills caused no sur
prise when they defeated Mrs. Ed
ward Eberhardt and Mrs. w. H..
Pritchard, 6-1, e.; but when the
Norwegian stars, Miss Bjurstedt and
Mrs. John Rogge, vanquished Mrs.
Rawson Wood and Miss Goss, 6-l,
6-1. it was different. 4 majority of
experts anticipated a hard struggle,
and some even went so far as TO
predict that the Norwe gians would
be compelled to bow before their op-
pcnents.
Miss Bjurstedt and Miss Goss will
meet in the final of the singles
this morning, and in the after
noon Mrs. Rogge and Miss Bjurstedt
will play Miss Marie Wagner and
Mrs. David c. Mills Tor the honors in
the final of the doubles.

DIFFERS FROM
GREATEST CHAMPION

New York, Feb. 9.-It would be
hard to find two fighting men more
different than John L. Sullivan and
Jess Willard. the man who now
holds the heavyweight title. Will
lard has not one of the attributes
that made Sullivan the idol of the
sporting public. Sullivan was the
ideal champion both in and out of
the ring. When he was not fighting,
his personality was such that he was
in the public eye. In action his every
move was that of man absolutely
sure of himself
Has Few Supporters
Willard is the least colorful of all
the champions and outside of a few
personal friends, he has no follow
ers, whereas when Sullivan was
champion there was hardly person
in the United States who did not
take an active interest in his doings.
Sullivan loved to fight and was not
particular how much he was paid
Tor 1t. Willard cannot be dragged
into the ring, although the promo

CENTRAL TEAM
BOWS TO YORK
In CLOSE GAME

Central lost to York, SO to So. in
one of the fastest and most exciting
games of basketball Harrisburgers
have ever witnessed. Both teams
played hard game and victory was
uncertain until Gingrich escaped,
unnoticed by the Central guards in
the last minute ef play, and caught
n long pass under his own basket,
scoring the goal that won the game.
York had a speedy bunch of players.
Central played a great game, but
should have had more field goals.
Gopdiel. who played forward the last
half, was the only Central forward
to set a goal from the field. The
other forwards had plenty of chances
but failed to take advantage of them
Two Central Stars
Gingrich and Frank were the stars.
although Fields played an excellent
game. Gingrich was high scorer for
York with five goals from the field
ana seventeen out of twenty-three
fouls. Gingrich played a stellar game
on both the offense and the defense.
Through his playing he proved HIM
self one of the fastest forwards seen
here this year. Time after time he
slipped away for a shot at the basket
but was stopped only by the good
work of Fields and Wolfe.
Frank High Scorer
Frank, as usual, was the high
scorer of the game. He played q
wonderful game, caging three goals
from the field and twenty-five out of
twentN-seven from the foul line. He
easily outplayed his opponent, the
much touted Mclaughlin, and held
lin TO one field goal. "Nobe" was
i little of color i'm his foul shooting.
1iy scoring twenty-eigh points last
night Frank retains his position at
the head of the Central Pennsylvania
League. Fields demonstrated his
ability as a guard by holding his
man Bosserman without a goal and
at the same time scoring one goal
from the field.
Local Star Scores
Frank opened the scoring with a
foul. Gingrich got three fouls. Frank
made another foul. Gingrich made
his first field goal from shot from
the side of the floor. The ball
dropped through the net. Frank got
n foul. Gingrich made a foul. Frank
made another foul. Frank shot an

LEE MAGEE SIGNS UP
FOR LARGE SALARY CUT

New York, Feb. 9.-When Lee
Magee came to the Yankees he car
ried with him a three-year contract
with the late Robert b. Ward and
the Brooklyn Federal League club,
which had several rather unusual
clauses. For one thing, Magee was
to get SS,S33 year for playing and
S1,167 more for managing the CLUB.
Colonel Rupert and Captain Huston
assumed the SS,33S end of the OBJ
legation and held on to a good deal
of it even after Magee was traded
last summer to the st. Louis Browns
for Armando Marsans.
Big Salary Cut
Now a new feature of the Magee
contract is brought to light. Some
time ago Bobbie Quinn, business
manager of the Browns, offered Ma
gee a new contract for 1918, and the
figures in the document indicated
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-02-09

ters are offering him a fortune to
box ten non-decision rounds.
Sullivan His Peer
If Willard had appeared on the
scene when Sullivan was in his prime
there is little doubt that Sullivan
would have polished him off without
any trouble whatever. AS a matter
of fact, Willard never would have
tried to be a fighter under the con-
ditions that obtained when Sullivan
tlourished. AS a ringster Willard is
entirely out of his elements and he
detests the sport as thoroughly as
the most rabid antiboXinE reformcr.
When Sullivan was at his best he
would have been entirely too fast
and aggressive for the big Kansan.
Willard would have been an easy
mark for Sullivan's terrific right
hand wallop, and as tough as Will
lard is he could not have taken
many of those blows without going
down. The only style of fighter that
caused trouble for Sullivan was Il
fast little man who could use his
feet TO good advantage.

HELP NAVY GET
MORE GOOD EYES
Binoculars and Glasses Are
Needed For Men on Look
out For Submarines

In the lockers OF every clubhouse,
with the togs of every racegoer
there is apt to be found a pair of
good field glasses. which right now
can be OF great service to Americas
lighting men. The Navy is in urgent
need of binoculars. spyglasses and
telescopes. More eyes" are needed
on shipboard than ever before to
maintain the constant and efficient
lockout for the submarine. seNtants
and chronometers are also required.
In days past the United states
drew its supply of these articles
from foreign countries. This stock Is
no longer to be had. The new meth
DDS of naval warfare make the need
of glasses more essential than ever
lefore. Through the papers of the
country an appeal was made, several
weeks ago. and this resulted in the
receipt of over 5000 glasses OF Narl-
Gus kinds. This number is insut-
ficient. The Navy needs many thou
sands more.
sport Lovers Help Needed
So the appeal is repeated to lovers
of the sport of kings and to thelr
patriotism to furnish more "eyes ioF
the Navy" as the Government can
not, under the law. accept services
or material without making some
uavment. 81 will be paid for each ar
ticle accepted. which sum VIII con-
stitute the rental price. or IN the
event of loss, the purchase price OF
the glasses.
All articles should be securely Tag

will be returned to the sender. Ihose

toric interest, at the termination OF

sible to guarantee them against

They have won six out of the last
seven games. Ike McCord put the

some basketball to defeat them to-
night. Dancing will follow the
