TLLINI BEST MAROONS

Urbana, Ill, May 11.-Capt. Krct-
dler's Illinois track team emerged
with a victory over Chicago yester-
day afternoon. 701a to Sag, in their
dual meet. A heavy rain during
the morning deadened the track,
and as the afternoon was cloudy,
times were slow. Carol of Hi
nois was individual point winner,
taking first place in three events,
the 100 yard dash, 220 yard dash,
and 220 yard low hurdles. Captain
Kreidler and Lang of Illinois
pushed Carroll closely for his hon
ors. Feuerstein was hig man, for
Chicago.
Illinois started by winning the
century dash, but Chicago shortly
took the lead by sweeping the mile.
Captain Kreidler then evened the
score by capturing the 120 yard
hurdles, bur Chicago again took
The lead when the red shirted Ma
rooms won all three places in the
two mile. With the exception OF
these setbacks, Illinois had an easv
time managing the Chicago men.
In the field events. Chicago was
able to negotiate only one first
place, BrelOs tossing the hammer

FRENCH SOLDIERS
IN BOLD ESCAPE
FROM HUN PRISON

Paris. - Correspondence of the
Associated Press.)-In escaping
from a German military prison,
Lieutenant Roland G. Garros and
Lieutenant Antoine Marchal, the
two celebrated French aviators, re-
peated the exploit of the famous
German, Captain Koepenick" Aft
er having been twice caught and
punished for attempting to take
French leave" Garros and Marchal
recalled how gullible the people and
soldiers proved themselves in the
case of the shoemaker Voigt, who,
under the name of Captain Koe-
penick" and in an officers uniform
laid everything under contribution
and was saluted and honored as
only German military officer
could be.
So they made French blue hort
zon cloth uniforms resembling as
closely as possible those Of German
officers. When they were finished
all they had to do was to walk out
of their prison, out of the camp and
out of the town, saluted on every
hand by sentinels, soldiers off duty
and civilians
Once clear of the town they doff-
ed the uniforms and made their
way to the frontier of Holland by
rail quite comfortably Their great
est difficulty was in crossing the
line 1t took them three days, dur
ing which they crept on hands and
knees backward and forwards al
ternately, lodging sentinels

PASS EVIL TAKES
AWAY PROFIT FOR
FIGHT PROMOTER

St Paul, May 11-Figures OBJ
tanned from official sources which
checked the recent ten-round bout
between Jack Dempsey and Billy
Miske. seemingly refuted the report
that boxing promoters in the twin
cities were on the road to million
aireGom.
The figures furnished several in
teresting problems in arithmetic.
Boiled into a single sentence they
formed this question:
Why was ii, that about every
third person who attended a boxing
contest in St. Paul or Minneapolis,
got in on a pass"
The pass evil" admittedly has
been a sore spot in twin-city boxing
circles. Promoters have claimed
that at certain contests during the
past winter there was more snow
than cash in the house. Jack Reddy,
local promoter. announced before
the Dempsey Miske fight. that he
had entirely dispensed" with his
free list. so far as non-newspaper
writer's. police officials and fight at
taches were concerned.
In Minnesota 10 per cent OF fight
receipts goes TO the state tubercu-
losis fund. At the last fight. state
officials closely checked on admis-
sions and demanded a percentage OF
Sl.700 worth OF free list" tickets
Here's where the STORY" comes in,
Jack Reddy told newspaper men
that he had cut this special list
10 one-third OF its usual propor-
tons, The reduced list totaled
nearly four hundred tickets. This
was exclusive OF q big bunch OF
passes TO tWfH-eity and out of town
/ writers and the usual quota to sec
( onds.
Therefore, II 400 persons walked
in without paying, as did legitfmat.

where does the promoter collect
| his profits?
Keddy answered the question
| thus.
There haven't been any profits

With the Robins losing game aft
eT game the great playing of Ivan
Olson at shortstop goes practically
unnoticeG. Ivan in the games play
ed this season has made wonderful
stops of hard hit balls TO his ter
ritory. thereby killing not few
base hits.
His great playing is not confined
to the defensive side or the game
either. At bat he is the most de
pendable man Robbie mas. He has
proved his right to his position in
the batting order-lead-Off manly
reaching first base one or more
times in every Came. and has batted
at a 1873 clip. Olson is the only
player under Uncle Robbie who is
in the charmed circle.
While it is true that he has been
guilty OF several costly errors, the
good work that he does between
second and third bases far over
shadows the unfort urate misplays.
Olson IL the most aggressive player
IN the Robins infieId. and with a
few more of his type on the club

GOOD CHANCE THAT
MATHEWSON MIGHT
YET SEE SERVICE

Chicago, May 11.-There still is
good chance of obtaining the ser
wees Of Christy Mathewson for Y.
NJ. C. A. work with the men of the
American peditionary forces.
This word has been brought back
from Cincinnati by DR.. George j.
Fisher OF the phys cal department
Of the national war work council
of the Y. NJ. c. A, who went to con-
fer with the manager of the Reds
regarding his enlisting under the
red triangle in the work of provid-
ing recreation and keeping up the
morale Of the men who have gone
900 miles from home to fight the
Germans
"Matty told me he was open
minded on the opportunity which
has come to him for service" re
ports DIR. Fisher. He denied he
had inspired stories emanating
from Cincinnati which stated he felt
he could be of more value to the
country by staying in the United
States l feel that in view of the
unjust criticism that has been lev
eIed at Matty because of this report
should set him right
He will leave the Cincinnati
team if the Y NJ. c A can show
him his duty lies overseas and that
the men there need him to help
them to win. The Y. NJ. c. A can
show him, and a cable message has
been sent to France today for con-
frmation of the original appeal
made to Natty If necessary to
convince him that he is needed IN
France. even General Pershing will
be willing to add his plea to the
call of his troops"
Mr.. Fisher further stated that the
Y NJ c. A has been unjustly crit
ic:sed in certain quarters a haY-
ing been the agent of the appeal to
Natty without proper authority.
He produced a copy of a general
order issued from the headquar-
tars Of the american expeditionary
forces an excerpt from which is
as follows:
