HOMER BAKER TODEFEND
BRITISH TRACK HONORS

An American athlete, holder of a
British track championship, is plan
ming to go abroad and defend his
honOrs next summer. He is none
other than Homer Baker, former
half-mile star of the New York A.
c. And he has many hackers, too,
willing to wage dollars to mustard
seeds that he'll come home with an
thero trophy.
BaS.l ia 1914 Baker. at that time in
his prime. was touring Europe. He
entered track meets wherever they
could be found. and his string OF
victories became longer the oftener

England when the British A. A. a.

thereby being crowned British cham
pion.
The great war began in August,
1914. and England gave up all thought
OF sports in the face of that grim
peril across the Channel. No British
championships have been held since
that summer, and so, even had he
wished, Baker could not have tried
his luck again.
But now comes notice that the Eng
lish will stage their annual title
games on July D, Baker, who has been
showing his Old-time form in the
winter meets around New York, is
training carefully. He intends to sail
for England and line up on the mark
in the half-mile. thinking he can de-
fend his honors successfully.

tomorrow in the Seventh regiment

S Howard vosheT. of Borough

Philadelphian. Among those who are
assigned to the lower half are Vim
cent T. Richards. the "boy wonder, {"

the favorites. Judging by their per-
formsnCes in recent competitions

EVERETT SCOTT IS
CHAMPIONS REBEL

TAMPA. Fla, March 2s.-Evereti
Scott, star shortstop Of the worlds
champions. has not signed his 1918
contract, nor does he give any sign
OF doing so. He is q plain holdout,
although here with the squad in
training. Scott wants more money
than the amount offered, and he
wants the ten days release clause
stricken from his official papers.
The signing OF Babe Ruth for three
years at a salary OF $4,000 Is not
making Harry Frazee's task any
easier when it comes to satisfying
Sam Jones, Carl Mays and Everett
Scott. Ruth Is admittedly the draw
ing card of the Red Sox wherever
the champions play. but without Mays
and Jones, Barrow will have the
weakest kind OF a pitching staff, and
without Scott the infield is a joke.
FraZee is expected here tomorrow
for a chat with the holdout clan.

Monohan has done no ring fighting
for many yeasr and no longer is able TO
extend the big fellow.
Willard has been out OF the ring so
long it Will take plenty OF hard work
to round him into form again. II it is
possible for him to regain his best
condition. plenty Of hard glove work
is the only thing that will do il. Will
lard would be far better off II he
could fight himself into condition by
taking part in several minor bouts in
the ring, but since his position and his
contract with Promoter Tex RiCkard
close that road, the only resource left
to HIM is to hire a squad of live wire
sparring partners, who can both give
and take something more than mere
love taps.
Must Learn Again.
Few boxers of Willard's age can
withstand punishment well, particu-
larly after being away from the ring
for any length Of time. The jaw mus
cles are the first to weaken, so that
blows that mean nothing to a fighter
who is used to being hammered, will
jar and daze the boxer who is not
hardened by constant boxing.
Up 10 a year or so ago Willard did
considerable boxing while travelling
with his circus 1t was very light
work. but it served to prevent him
from losing his judgment OF distance
and his ability to block. However. ii
now is some time since he did any sort
Of glove work.

 How any one who saw the world se1'ies--saw the White Sox fight with a desperation born of wounded pride to win after a disastrous start--coUld cry Fake surpasses understand tng
 The two men most responsible for Chicago's defeat were Eddie Cicotte and Kid Gleason, yet who will br,athe a word against their integrity.
 If the world series of 1919 was fixed Willard fopped deliberately for Demp- sey and Beckett di3 an agile Fred Me Kay for Carpenter.
 Of far more immediate importance to baseball is the work of perepara tion for the coming season--a campaign for the game everywhere.
 Practically every team in the ma jor leagues will enter the race strong CT than when the fight of 1919 began. But there are still two clubs in the National League and at least one in the American that require much trengthening.
 In the National League the Cardi na1s and Phillies still are the weak sisters. Unfortunately little has been accomplished to bolster either of the teams for the coming race. The Cardt- nals require fortifying in the box and behind the bat, while the PhilIie need a thorough overhauLDg.
