New Haven. March 14.-YaIe will
encourage the formation Of all ath-
lctic teams this spring which can be
organized under war conditions,
such as the abandonment of profess
sional coaches. training tables and
long trips. - ....-
With the possible exception of
golf. II is now likely that every
minor sport spring team will be or
ganized Immediately. The tennis,
soccer football and lacrosse teams
have already perfected their or
ganizations and are arranging
schedules.
No present plan calls for cutting
on the basketball. swimming or
wrestling teams next winter, al
though no move will be made for
their organization till after the
opening of the fall term.
Yale has decided on the usual "Y''

JOE STECHER
WILL APPEAR
Western Wrestler to Be the
Chief Attraction at
Mat Carnival.

Baltimore, Nd, March H-Judging
by the early demand for seats, Man
ager Jung, Of the Monumental Sport
ing Club. says he figures the Lyric
will hold close TO a capacity audience
tonight, when the club will put on q
monster wrestling card. -Four big
bouts are booked and followers Of the
mat sport are I'm for more action than
they have had in some time. Wrestlers
Of national reputation figure in all OF
the bouts.
The appearance OF Joe Stecher on
the card is an event in itself. The
wonder from the West has not ap-
peared in Baltimore since his bout
with Americus, when Gus was a VIC
tim Of his deadly scissors hold. Since
then, however, Joe has learned that
there are other things than the seis-
sors hold in the game, and that II can
be successfully 'combatted.
Stecher's opponent tonight viii be
jess Westergard, the Western giant
Westergard is well over six feet tall
and he figures to make Stecher step
very lively to win.
Americus will go 10 the mat with
Mort Henderson, who gained fame
and fortune as the Masked Marvel.
Mort is appearing minus his mask
these days and said to be working in
good form.
Another Westerner on the card is
Charley Cutler, OF Chicago. Cutler
is well known. and when Gotch re-
tired he turned the title over to
Cutler. Joe MAnish, a giant Swede,
will grapple with him here Friday.
Shad Link. Of this city. and John
Heacle, OF Wilmington, Del, will try
grips with each other in the fourth
match on the program. This bout
was booked for several weeks ago,
but Link suffered a case of acute in
digestion and the bout was neces-
sarily postponed. Shad was iIl in
bed for a week, but is in good shape
again.
All the bouts will have a time
limit set on them and one fall will
decide the wiuner. II no fall is
gained within the time limit the ref
cree will give a decision.

The hitch came about over Fulton's
end of the purse as dictated by Mil

challenger.
do you think We are fighting for
prestige and ylory?" shouted Collins.
Don't you think Fulton is entitled to
something for his end of the re-
ceipts?"
The press was barred from the con-
ference. Collins later stated the
amount offered Fulton was mot
enough to bind the match"

Walter Johnson Signs
Contract for 1918 Season

Manager Clark Griffith is once
more a happy man, as his base
ball family is intact for the 1918
campaign. Walter johnson, the
premier pitcher of the Ameri-
can League, signed his contract
yesterday afternoon and is ready
to proceed South with the second
squad under Foxy Griff's wing
on Saturday night.
Johnson came here from his
home in Coffeyville, Kan, and
had a talk with Griffith and
,aff1xed his signature to a con-
tract for the coming season.
Walter said he waited to see his
manager before signing. as he
had a bereavement in the fam
lily during the winter and also
was ill for a short time himself.
Walter spent the winter on
his farm and although he was a
little overweight, it will. take
him only a few days to be down
to playing condition and ready
to go in and pitch when the bell
sounds for the opening of the
season.
johnson is one of the few
men that it does not take very
long to get in condition. as he
takes his work in a serious man
ner and is trying all the time.
He will require but little prac-
tice to get down to weight, once
he gets out in the sun and has
a chance to timber up his sal
airy arm. He will take things
easy for the first few days under
the eye of the Nationals pilot
and then will be given his own
time to condition himself as he
sees fit
