ALEXANDER SIGNS
CUBS CONTRACT

Pasadena, Cal, March 20.-Grover
Clevelanld Alexander, the Philadelphia
pitcher who has been holding out for
a bonus of $4,000 from the Chicago
National League team, signed his con-
tract here yesterday, it was an
nounced. The terms were not made
public.
Fred Mitchell, manager; Walter
Craighead, business manager, and
William Wrigley, Jr., a director of the
club, held a conference with Alexan-
der yesterday and then announced
that he had signed No intimation
was made as to whether he received
the sum he had demanded or whether
a compromise had been reached.
Alexander announced several weeks
ago that he would demand SO, 900 for
signing, which sum he said he be-
lieved was a fair bonus to be paid
him from the reported purchase price
of $4,000, said to have been paid to
the Philadelphia club of the National
! League for him and his catcher, Will
| liam KilEfer.
The club management said it could
not pay this sum, and although Alex
ander joined the Cubs on the trip to
Pasadena he has taken no part in the
training and has not been out in uni
| form.

BOTHNER'S INJURY

Atlantic City, N. j., March 20
George Bothner, New York. light
weight wrestling champion and ref
cree, will be confined to the City hos
pital here for several weeks as the
result of the double fracture of his
left leg he sustained during a bout
here last night with Frank Rice of
Boston.
An X-ray of his injuries. taken yes
terday by DR.. Theodore Senseman,
showed the breaks to be more serious
than were first supposed. Before en-
tering the ring last night Bothner had
told several friends that it would be
the last time he would defend the
lightweight title. He was to have
refereed the Zbyszko-Lewis match in
New York last night
Pinkey Gardner of Schenectady,
". Y, who suffered conclusion of the
brain after being thrown over the
ropes by Mike Yokel of Salt Lake
city, middleweight champion, during
a bout that followed Bothners, re-
covered sufficiently overnight to per-
init his removal to his home.
George Fisher of New York, the
referee, and Yokel, who had been held
by the police pending the outcome OF
his injuries, were released.

New York, March 20.-The widest
wrestling bout New York has ever wit
messed came to sensational close last
night at Madison Square Garden
when Wladek Zbyszko butted> Strang-
Ter Lewis so hard with his head that
he sent him helpless and dazed
through the robes. Referee Billy
Roche promptly awarded the decis-
ion to Lewis on foul.
A scene of rowdyism and disorder
followed the sudden finish of the
fastest match ever held here between
heavyweights. The Infatuated crowd
fought to get at the Pole. There were
cries of kill him. and frantic spec
tators hurled chairs at Zbyszko as he
left the ring. 1t was necessary for
the attendants to fight the crowd back
to save the Pole from violent treat
ment.
Madison Square Garden was packed
with the largest crowd which has
jammed into the old arena since the
Willard-Mor fight. Enthusiasm ran
riot during the 7 minutes % seconds
that the bout was under way. There
was bad feeling between the two
giants from the start and the crowd
repeatedly booted and Missed the Pole
for butting the Stranger.
A dozen times or more Lewis caught
the Pole in the gruelling vise-like grip
of the head hold and held him until
his eyes almost popped out of his
head, but Zbyszko, displaying remark
able stamina for taking punishment,
each time wriggled his way free. In
the riot which followed the bout a
| spectator hit Zbyszko on the head
with his cane and inflicted bad cut
When the men drew off their bath
robes they looked like a couple of
human mastodons. Lewis went at
Zbyszko with a bull-like rush, but the
Pole refused to back up, and the pair
tried to wiring each others necks. At
ter three minutes of tussing Zbysz-
ko tumbled Lewis to the mat, but the
pair were up in jiffy. The match
developed early into a rough, gruelling
contest.
| After five minutes of fast work
Zbyszko threw Lewis so hard that he
almost tossed him from the ring. The
huge crowd was in an uproar during
the next minute, when Lewis lured the
Pole into the deadly clutches of the
head hold, but Zbyszko freed himself
after herculean effort. After a while
both men resorted to football tactics
and threw themselves at each others
legt in an effort to get the toe hold.
With look of fiendish glee the
Stranger again got Zbyszko's head
under his arm, but the Poles legs flew
into the air and with a mighty kick
he snapped his head loose.
When the giants had been pun
ishing each other for a quarter of an
hour, Lewis got firm hold on the
Poles toe as the two crashed to the
floor. Lewis left himself open to the
same hold and Zbyszko grasped the
Strangers toe. A look of pain spread
lover Lewis's face as the Pole pressed
the big toe close to the breaking point.
Lewis was in danger. 1t was only
after supreme effort that he kicked
himself away from his opponent
Men and women jumped to their
feet and cheered wildly as Lewis again
got head hold on the Pole. Fran

WAITE HOYTLOOKS
GOOD TO M'GRAW

Waite Hoyt, who played in the
Eastern League for a short while, en-
joys a unique position in the annals
of professional baseball, for should
the former Brooklyn schoolhoy quit
the pastime right now he would long
be remembered as the youngest
player ever given a contract by a
major league ball club.
Hoyt will not be 10 years of age
until next September, yet he has been
under contract to the Giants for
three years and has spent two full
seasons in minor leagues, to which
he was farmed out by John McGraw.
There have been a number of players
in the past who were heralded as real
youngsters, but it generally developed
that they were well matured. Hoyt,
however, is a real prodigy.
The kid pitcher is taller and far
heavier than the average boy of his
age, and his movements in the box
tend to make one believe that he is
of more advanced years. Also he has
an assortment of stuff that many an
older and more experienced hurler
would be glad to possess. He can
pitch, make no mistake about it, and
if he continues to improve as rapidly
as he has since he was picked up by
Charlie Doonin when he was working
out with the Robins at Ebbets Field
one day in the summer of 1915 it will
not be long before he is ripe for work
in the big show.

Lewis Wins On Foul;
Fans Hurl Chairs At
byszkO After Bout

tically Zbyszyo tried to hick himself
free, but the Stranger held on bru-
tally. The Poles eyes were bulging
from his head as Lewis's grip grew
tighter and tighter. The Pole final
lyl cracked. Zbyszko brought Kisses
from the crowd as he punished the
Stranger, and Referee Roche had to
warn the Pole.
The uproar was terrific when Lewis
again broke Zbyszko's toe hold, as he
was dangerously close to defeat. The
grapplers were pretty tired from their
efforts and spared around the mat
for a rest Then the Pole lifted the
gigantic Lewis and threw him so hard
that the ring shook on its founda-
tons.
The amazing popularity of the
wrestling game was again shown by
the crowd which packed every part
of the Garden. There were hun
dreds of women, many of them in
evening gowns. Every phase of
metropolitan life was represented in
the large gathering, and the enthusi-
asm over the graphing giants was
not confined to the galleries because
the prominent occupants of the boxes
at times contributed to the din of up
roarious excitement as the grapplers
mauled each other all over the mat.
The wrestling fan never seems to
tire of the rough gruelling antics of
the contestants. The game amuses
when the Wrestlers are playing horse
with each other and the fans are in
tensely interested when the Crap
ping is hard and Furnishing. Yussit
| Hussane and Mort Henderson, who
used to parade through local tourna-
| ments as the Masked Marvel, met in
| the main preliminary bout. Hussane
| won after % minutes % seconds of
wrestling with an arm and crotch
hold. At one time during the bout
each of the wrestlers had the to-,
hold and Hussane was the first to
weaken. Hussane was the more pow
| erful toward the end and nailed Hen
derson to the platform after he had
worn him down.
| In the first preliminary Joe Malco-
weicz won a referees decision over
| George Manish after a. half hour of
severe graphing. Malcoweicz was
| the aggressor, and several times
Manish was in danger of being pinned
| down.
Americas, the veteran Baltimore
| wrestler, threw Jess Westergaard of
Iowa in a gruelling bout in 2S.29.
Americas did the trick with a crotch
and arm lift. He picked the big
| Westerner up, whirled hi mover in
the air, and threw him violently to
the mat. Westergard landed on his
| neck and was so badly stunned that
Americas had no trouble in pinning
| him down.
| Before the main bout a strong ap-
| peal was made for the knights of

| among the spectators and for quar-
ter of an hour coins and bills flowed
into the Golfers of the war charity. A
| letter from Cardinal Gibbons brought

Hundred-doIIar bills were tossed into
the ring by enthusiastic spectators.
and the drive got a tremendous boost.

BIG CROWD WILL
SEE ARENA BOUTS

Judging from the heavy advance
sale, the largest crowd that ever filed
into the New Haven Arena will be on
hand for the Johnny Dundee Willie
jackson battle. scheduled for a de-
clslon next Monday night. The bout
mas creatd more talk than any pre-
V1ous battle in that city and the pro-
motors are taking great pains to suit
ably accommodate the many fans who
are coming from various points
throughout the Middle Atlantic States.
This bout spells action. Make no
mistake about that. Dundee has little
or no use for Jackson and no one can
blame him. Just about q year ago
Dundee was riding the wave of pop
ularity when Jackson upset the adj
vance dope by flooring the Scotch
Wop for the fatal ten seconds count
in one round at Philly. The boys got
together again in a short distance
bout in New York and Dundee Sc
cured partial revenge by winning the
popular decision on points. Since that
time Dundee has been eagerly await
ing chance to get Jackson into the
ring for Is rounds with the result that
the New Haven match was consum-
mated.
Dundee will enter the coming bout
determined to win by a knockout. He
does not pack very dangerous punch
but he believes that Jackson will do
we'll to offset the attack which he ex-
poets to shower upon him. Dundee is
not Understanding Jackson's ability,
Ibut he will take numerous chances to
get over a kayo if it is within his
lpower.

BENNY KAUFF is
PLACED IN CLASS 1

Pomeroy, Ohio March 10 =
Benny Kauff, the little outfielder
of the Giants, yesterday was placed
in Glass /, Division A, in the Ma
tional Army call by his home draft
board. He will be called for mill
tary service when his number,
1,245. is reached, which may be
mid-season.
Kauff was examined Saturday by
the draft board at Marlin, Texas,
where the Giants are training. 1t
was found his left arm is two
inches shorter than his right and
that he has fiat feet. The mem
bers of the local board, however,
did not think these two physical
defects enough to exempt him.
After Kauff was examined at
Marlin he declared he was ready
to do his bit and that he might
enlist in the navy. If he is called
the outfeld of the Giants will be
crippled, as Davy Robertson has
quit the national game so that he
can work for the Department of
Justice.

Regatta on Severn
Opposed by Yale

New Haven, March 20-A general

in New York next Saturday night at
either the Yale or Harvard club.
All the large universities, including

The ides of a big regatta has been
practically abandoned. Opposition
has sprung up to the Severn course
Yale will oppose it and will urge the
Thamas course at New London, if any
general regatta is held. Instead it
is believed that the universities wiz
divide their rowing program into
