BLIND CAN WORK IN sHIpYARDs.
They Will Be Available as Well as the

San Francisco, June 2s.-That both the

Short Of help for preparing foot stops
and guy ropes for his tents, which con
sisted in knotting and splicing, is occurred
to Mr.. Lubbert that if the blind were
capable Of becoming adept at basket
weaving, the same principles would APP
ply TO making complicated knots and
spices. His offer of work to the stu
dents of several institutions for the blind
was accepted and the result proved a
complete success.
For the foot rope, or loop that holds
to the tent peg, the Matthew Walker
knot is used, among the most compli-
Gated known to mariners. BY patient
work, and with the aid of heavy rope
over which Mr.. Lubbert could guide the
hands of his pupils the workers were
able, at the end Of the week, to make
the knot, as well as their teacher.

Prediction Of a Willard Vic

WHO HAS BEEN BOXING
WITH THE CHAMPION
He Says Dempsey's BUSHES
Will Not Harm
Willard

Toledo, O., June 2S.-Victory for Jess
Willard with Knockout within five
rounds in his heavyweight championship
contest with Jack Dcmspey here July
was the prediction to-day OF Walter
Monahan, chief sparring partner for the
champion. Monahan based his prediction
on his close knowledge of Wizards phys
ical condition, gained through several
years Of work with him. 1t was Mona
han who conditioned Willard for his
match with Jack johnson at Havana.
Monahan asserted that the muscles
protecting Wizards stomach are like
rods Of iron and that Dempsey will not
be able TO hurt him with stomach
punches.
at is my honest opinion that Dempsey
will wear himself out with his dashing
attack within three rounds said Mona
han. "Then he will be ready for what
ever Willard wants to hand him. Demp-
sey will not be able to avoid Wizards
right hand upper cut and if Jess con-
meets solidly, a knockout surely will re-
suit"

patch received in Toxic says the Koreans

Which They Worked Off on
the Goddard Semi
nary Team
ALUMNI THE WINNERS
BY SCORE OF 7 TO 3
Game Full of Thrills and
Astounding in Mer-
riment

Three Goddard pitchers could not pre-
vent the gathering of Goddard alumni
stars from scoring seven runs in six in
nings, while the school team captured
but three yesterday afternoon, The game
started after the alumni members had
ransacked the town for baseball suits
some appearing with the colors of three
or four teams represented in one outfit
Nevertheless, they furnished vast
amount of amusement and made the
school boys play hard. Because of the
late start, only six innings could be
played, but that was enough to display
the form which the alumni members
were in.
As far back as most of those present
yesterday could remember, the alumni
team had never defeated the school team
before. But it is no wonder that they
accomplished this feature yesterday
when one considers the players that com
posed the team. Nearly all of them have
been playing most of the season either
with college teams or those equivalent
to them. In the lineup appeared two
University Of Vermont regular men,
Smith, 10, and Tryon, n; Olsen, '0s, a
pitcher for q Masonic team in Detroit,
Mich; Lee, II, who at one time was
captain of the Tufts baseball squadron;
Heath '0s, and Bridgford, Is, both Of
whom have had try-outs with big league
outfits, as well as Shaw, '0s, another old
star; Burns, II, previously with Yer
mont and now with the Fort Sill league
team at Fort sill, Oklahoma.
In the first inning the alumni team
started the ball a-rolling for one run and
in the same period Goddard scored two.
Slayton, who pitched the first, was taken
out and replaced by Kelly for the next
three innings, who held his opponents
seoreless, while another run had been
made by the hill team, leaving them in
the lead by two scores. Coach Bracket
then shifted Kelly to the field in order
to save him for to-day's game at Inter
city park with Montpelier seminary, re,
placing him with Slayton. Slayton's
curves were not working yesterday, so
Howard was put in the box in the same
inning, but the older players cracked
the ball out at the proper times and
managed to get four scores in the fifth
and two in the sixth.
The features of the game were Shaw's
playing without uniform and his time
ly jokes; Burns one-hand thrillers on
first base; and Beattie's excellent catch
of fly ball in the first part of the
sixth, when he ran back to center field
and caught the ball. 1t was evident that
the alumni players knew baseball, for
several times they worked the Hill team
for scores and bases by trick plays
around the lines. The score:
