brought national honors to the Magic
City last night by defeating Vossen
of Gary in one of the most surprising
matches of the whole amateur wrestl-
ing tournament. The Gary team easily
ran away with the programme in five
of the classes, while Max Cans of
Morris Athletic club, Chicago,
snatched off couple of titles by get
ting the decision in both the lis and
125-pound finals.
The last match on the bill was the
most pleasing one to local fans. Vossen.
the blond Gary wrestler, who had pre-
viously lost to Cans on a foul, essayed
to come back in higher class, and was
matched with Bull Johnson. They went
at each other in earnest as soon as
the gong sounded, and Vossen gained
the upper hold, which he held for about
two minutes. During this time ne
worked on Johnson's wind continually
and showed considerable knowledge of
the fine points of the game.
Fans had reconciled themselves to
another Gary victory and were pre-
pared to watch johnson suffer through
the full Is minutes of time, when sud
denly the local lad got tiger-like hold
on Vossens toe. He put everything he
had into that hold and by locking his
body around Vossen applied the pres
sure which brought pleas of help from
the Gary boy.
1t was several seconds before Referee
Riddle realized the plight of Vossen,
who was trying to give up as hard as
he could. When Johnson's right hand was
raised he received big nand from his
admirers

WILLARD STARTS
TRAINING FOR THE
T|TULAR BATTLE
Managers of Champion and
Dempsey Meet and Make
Plans-Willard to Star
in Picture Drama

New York, March 1S.-At an informal
conference here tonight the managers of
Jess Willard and Jack Dempsey discussed
the heavyweight championship contest,
scheduled for July 4, with Promoter Tex
Richard, preparatory to arranging for
preliminary training. Willard was rep
resented by Ray Archer while Dempsey s
plans were explained by Jack kearns.
Both managers stated they were in this
city prepared to engage sparring partners
for their principals and each carried a
list of heavyweight boxers from which
it was expected they would be selected.
Archer said he was prepared to take at
least two such helpers back to Law
renee, Kan, with him when he leaves
for Wizards home town at the end of
the week.
According to the champion manager.
Willard has already begun light physical
work and is a trifle below 210 pounds
in weight lie is particularly DESTROYS
Of getting sparring partners of about
the height and weight of Dempsey and
which his opponent had been putting
up all during the bout. At any rate,
Jack Biddle, who is not afraid to call
'em as he sees em, awarded Cans the
decision.

the deaf mute from Gary threw Gold
berg of the Baltimore Y. NJ. c. A. in
six minutes and nine seconds of fast
and furious going. To show that he
was a good fellow, the mute picked up
his defeated rival, patted him on the
back, and carried him out of the ring,
waving good naturedly to the crowd.
Max Cans of Gary won on points
over Chapman of New Orleans in a live
ly 90 minutes tussle in the 115pound
weight five minutes extra being al
lotted by Referee Biddle. The Pelican
City kid was game, but didn't have
the power his rival showed.
Fritz Jones was a great favorite with
the crowd over Smith of Gary, another
deaf mute, in the 145-pound class, but
the Birmingham boy never had a
chance. Fritz fought gamely through
out the Is minutes and wiggled out Of
several tight places, but was on the
defensive nearly all the time. Smith
appeared to be the most finished wres-
tier in the whole tournament. He eX-
! planned by signs that Fritz was too
strong to throw.
The 15S-pound match between Tragos

MAJOR LEAGUES
OPEN SEASON
National and American Start
This Week on Pre-War
Basis.

NEW YORK, April 22.-The COM
ing week will usher in another base
bali season under conditions which
the major league magnates, payers
and fans hope and expect will be
more fruitful than those of the past
few years. With the blight of war
lifted from the national sport il is
the belief in all sections that the
game will rebound to the heights of
popularity which it enjoyed previous
to the devastating sweep OF world
wide hostilities.
League officials and club owners,
with this idea in mind, have devoted
the past few months to preparing
for a new period in baseball and
their handiwork is evident in many
positions. Radical changes made in
methods and system of conducting
the big leagues at the annual meet
ings of the magnates. Individual
club owners have labored TO improve
the strength of their forces and
through the team managers have
purchased or traded players in order
to round out formidable combina-
tions.
Stronger Circuits.
How we'll they have builded only
time can demonstrate but viewed
from the standpoint of the present
1t would appear as though both the
National and American circuits were
stronger and better balanced than
has been the case in recent seasons.
Before the pennant races are well
under way IL is expected that the
last of the diamond stars now serv-
ing with the forces either at home
or abroad. will have doffed the
khaki for baseball flannel. Many will
re-apear upon the field with a CLAM
or heretofore lacking and the fans
welcome will be backed by a senti-
ment containing something more
than the admiration due the player
for his playing ability alone.
New Faces Appear.
Mingled with faces of returning
veterans who have won honors on
the battlehelds of Europe, as we'll as
on the diamond. will be seen those

that has established the sport so
firmly throughout the nation. Old
stars may fade; youthful phenome-
mons leap to the zenith in their
places; and club owners come and go
with little apparent effect upon the
popularity of the game. For many
years baseball has held it's own
through prosperous and depressing
seasons because it is baseball and
Americas game. Tradition had
welded the sport into an integral
part of the nations life.
