pen Eastern Racing Fund Nay Get Extra Pennies
c. Griffith Appreciates New
Move Being Made 10 Dispose
OF War Tax Extra Pennies

'T surely appreciate the efforts of
the newspapers and wire services
throughout the country in their
attempt to help my Bat and Ball
Fund.-" said the Old Fox last night.
This new move Of asking the
club owners throughout the country
to contribute the extra pennies coll
lected on the war tax to the Bat
and Ball Fund Is a great one..
The magnates intend ito put
this extra money to some good
cause and believe that the Bat
and Ball Fund should be the first
one they think of. I did not make
any suggestions of this kind at the
recent meetings in New York be-
cause both of the big leagues were
generous enough to offer me one
day in which the Bat and Ball Fund
10 to receive the largest amount Of
the receipts.
The fund Is very much In need
of money at the present time. The
new movement of troops from one
camp to another and the sending
of new rockies to the cantonments
during the past few days has
caused q great demand for base
ball equipment and already this
week I have shipped over 100 oredrs.
I only hope that the big leagues
and minors. too, can see fit to place
extra pennies gathered on war tax
at the disposal Of the Bat and Ball
Fund as the Samies need baseball
as well as guns and 1t Is quite Q
big proposition to furnish them all"

FIVE
BESTSLOYOLA
Baltimore High School Quint
Are Nosed Out in Great
Game, u to 26.

Gonzaga High yesterday evened up
its score with Loyola High School
of Baltimore in a nip and tuck strug-
gle in the l street gymnasium. When
the final whistle shrilled the score
stood q to 25,>with~ the extra one on
the ledger of the local quint.
Costello and Fitzgerald, the two
snappy Gonzaga forwards, were
largely responsible for the victory.
Through their accurate caging the l
street boys came from behind in the
last half and ended up a nose in the
lead of the Baltimoreans.
John Sullivan, the husky guard of
GonZaga, played a great game at
guard during the final period.
Capt. Murray, near the end of the
struggle, got into a pocket of Oppos-
ing players and in a scrimmage that
followed received a bad sprains to his
knee. This is the fifth straight win
for the Gonzaga five! Sweeney, the
tall center OF the Baltimoreans,
starred for the visitors.

DRAWS
BEST HORSES
Eastern Owners Placing
Thoroughbreds in Louis
vile Classic.

New York, Feb. S.-Eastern own
ers are going to make another bid
and in force for the rich Kentucky
Derby this year. According to the
announcement Of H. c. Applegate.
secretary of the New Louisville Jock
ey Club, seventy of the leading three
year-olds in training have been NOM
mated for the classic which has an
added value of $4,000 that will be
run at Churchill Downs in May.
The East looms up on the lists, II
not in quantity. certainly in quality.
1t was an understood thing that Willis
Sharpe Kilmer's Sun Briar, cham
pion two-year-old OF 1917, would be
named. War Cloud, which will just
about give the pick of the three
year-olds the hardest sort of a battle
for the honors of this year, is one
of A. K. McComber's three candi-
dates.
George W. Loft has entered Papp,
winner of the Futurity last fall, alone
with Cum Sab and Arrah Go On, and
the big son of Peter Ounce may make
try for the classic IL Maxey Hirsch
thinks he is up to so gruelling a race
so early in the year. Papp has grown
enormously over winter and stands
nearly seventeen hands
Rosie O'Grady, best of the two-year-
old fillies last year, is down to try to
duplicate the feat of H. P. Whit
ney's peerless Regret in 1915. On past
performances she is the likeliest of
Mr. Whitney's four candidates.
Andrew Miller has nominated Re
count, and NJ. l. Schwartz has named
hfS snaadu filIv Epflade
The last three runnings of the Derby
have been won by Eastern horses
H. P. Whitney's Regret, John San
ford's George Smith and c. K. G.
Billings and Frederick Johnson S
Omar Khayyam.
Kentucky will not be lacking in good
ones. K. D. Alexander, who is now
driving an ambulance in France, has
nominated his good Breomstick colt
Escoba, which finished second to Papp
in the Futurity and then beat him
in the Breeders Futurity a fortnight
later. w. E. Applegate has named
Jack Hare, Jr.: J. G. Long, Ocean
Sweep; T. C. Mcdowell, Olive Wood,
and ]. N. Camden, Everest and Alta
lanta Other likely Kentucky candi-
dates are Viva America, Free Cut
ter, High Cost and James T. Clark.
Capt. ]. X. L. Ross. who bought
Cudgel for $4,000 last fall. was the
most liberal nominator with six en-
tries These are mostly English-bred
horses which were not seen much un-
der colors last year.

Will Be Third Man in Ring at
Wrestling Bout in Garden.

New York. Feb. 2S-The fact that
Joe Stecher the Scissors Demon. and
Wladek Zbyszko. the Polish Her
cules, never have met on the wrest-
ling pad and that each has a differ
ent style adds to the interest in
the contest which will be decided
in Madison Square Garden tomorrow
night.
Stecher is so active a grappler and
so spirited "a performer he can he
depended on to inject considerable
action into the bout Zbyszko and
Olin in their recent contest were
slow and heavy. but Stecher is an
athletic firecracker.
George Bothner. who will referee
the bout, which will be decided by
one fall, will also judge a thirty
minute contest between Charley Cut
Ter and Yussiff Hussane, and If there
is no fall will decide the winner

EXTRA PENNIES
GRIFFS FUND
Magnates Should Donate
Over Tax to Bats and
Balls for Sammies.

Baseball magnates. big and little.
from the National and American
leagues down to the smallest Class d
team have an opportunity TO do a big
service for Uncle Sans soldiers with
out q cent Of expense to themselves
The magnates have decided not ito
bother with pennies on war taxes this
year. but will charge even money.
This means that Scent seats Will
sell for 30 cents instead of Is cents,
the exact amount II the war tax Of
10 per cent was charged and 7J-cent
seats for IS cents instead of g.. There
will, of course, be no excess pennies
on the 50-cent and 81 seatG
What is to be done with the money?
Will the magnates keep Il?
Some magnates have suggested Civ
ing IL to the Red Cross.
That's a fine patriotic thing to do.
but there's a war cause much closer
to baseball than the Red Cross, a
cause which needs funds AM which
pennies.
This cause Is Clark Grifith's ball
and bat fund. started by the Ma
tionals' manager last year.
Already thousands Of soldiers in can
tonrnents in America and in France
have received baseball equipment
through this fund. Griti1th has collect
ed thousands Of dollars which has
been spent judiciously in purchasing
equipment.
Griffith has given much valuable
time to the campaign. He has writ
ten thousands of letters and sent hun
dreds Of kilograms at his own ex-
pense, The returns have been
gratifying. but
There's a new army to be raised.
Almost a million new men will be
in the camps by the middle Of sum-
mer. Baseball season is almost here.
The Sammies want baseball equip
ment.
Harry Frazee, owner Of the Boston
Red Sox, has estimated that the extra
pennies from the two big leagues
alone will amount to 10000 in 1918.
This amount would be greatly in
creased by pennies from the minors.
Let's give this money to the Grif-
fith Ball and Bat fund.
The magnates are going to take
these pennies from the fans regard
less Of what use is made Of them.
They don't belong to the club own
ers and the club owners realize IL.
They are on the lookout for a good
use for them.
There is no better use for the base
ball pennies than the ball and bat
fund.
In another column on this page ts
a coupon. Fill it out and mail 1t to
Benjamin S. Minor. president of the
Nationals. Show him what you think
should be done with your pennies.
Chances are he will be only too glad
to have the suggestion.
