YALE MEN INSIST
 ON NEW BUILDING

Cambridge, Mass, March 16.-Coach Al Sharpe of Yale is going to make an im- mediate demand for a large building to accommodate the basketball and hockey teams. He wants a building that will seat approximately 5,000 people.
 In an unofficial communication to Yale authorities Sharpe declared the practice of forcing the hockey team to use the Philadelphia Ice Rink was an imposition Under the plan in vogue this winter, Yale's hockey crew was forced to take an express train to Philadelphia for the games and then return to the college as quickly as possible, am by whatever means was available. Those of the play CTS who missed rectations were obliged to make them up. The instructors re- fused to alter the lesson schedule to accommodate the players.
 Coach Sharpe says the facilities TOT basketball are inadequate, while new quarters of ample size would enable this sport to at least pay its own way. In part his report says:
 Yale should take advantage of the in creased popularity of the game, and at the same time offer encouragement to the members of the basketball squads in tho future"
 It is said that Yale officials have taken stand against building for the present.

N IL sportsoscope signs point to LGN 1920 as the banner year in G S baseball. Interest is fast awakening in the southland and from every training camp reports filter In that city and country are watching practice games with zeal and lest, talking baseball and champing at their bits for the real opening of the season.
 Sporting writers in every Southern League city have laid their plans to combat with the busiest baseball sea son in their career. Travelling men who spend the weekend in Birming- ham are going fifty-fifty in topical conversation as between baseball and politics.
 Birmingham always has been mecca for fandom. 1t will ever be. There's a bit of real sporting blood in the veins of every Birmingham man one meets. It's characteristic of the town. typical of the population.
 The local man first is interested in the home team, but his sporting zest does not end there. He's watching for the advent of the majors as well.
 "This baseball bug certainly has Alabama in it's grip" remarked passenger locomotive engineer last night. He told me that from his big titan, speeding through village and town, the boy on the hillside, in the back lot and even along the streets IS playing ball.
 "The hill-billies reached training camp first" he told me. Every lad, four years and up, along my run has a ball and bat and rural diamonds arc springing up like mushrooms over night"
 The soldiers are back. Those who were not athletes and fond of outdoor sports before they enlisted have re- turned atheltic fans. The spirit has proven infectious.
 But even last year the minor leagues of the country enjoyed thelr most prosperous season in five years. This year the prospect of fourfold to the better Fifteen leagues in 1919 employed 2,500 players. Thirteen tln- lshed their official season.
 It is an off day when some repre- sentative group from manufactar- ing center in the Alabama Georgia Mississippi-T Tennessee district does not come to Birmingham or write, asking for amateur ball players. Usually there's a mill job thrown m. But it goes to indicate the prevailing sentiment. The people are turning to

 The Yankee array of 1920 is stronger than any which has ever worn the New York regalia. And that's saying a lot, for many Goth- am clubs have looked good in the past dozen years.

 Is Natural
 BornBoxer

Crescent City fandom will hail with de- light the victory of Ashton Donza. the little tiger of the amateur ring. but local boxing enthusiasts would have enjoyed real bout between this runt and some- body something near his equal in prow- ess.
 Donza occupied place in both the 1l5 and 125-pound classes.
 Those who saw him land with that near-knockout Monday night at the Bir- n ingham Athletic Club are wondering yet how it happened.
 The boy is natural born fighter. Cat like, quick, eyes snapping, eagerness for fray was indicated in the culver of his every muscle.
 The New Orleans boy was entered for a preliminary Monday night against John Boardman. Camp Taylor lad. The bell had barely sounded, the spectators had just focused their lamps on the ring and reused up to see the fun, possibly half a dozen swings had passed, when --bing!
 Donats terrific short arm swung from under. caught the soldier under the chin and sent him to the mat like a slug of pgiron
 For a moment it looked as if the Camp Taylor hoy had s<.pped and fallen, bun those who watched closely had seen that bullet-blow from Donza's short arm
 Knockout? It really looked like a clean-cut knockout for period of one minute. Then Boardman was assisted to his feet and to his chair. It was evil dent that the blow had him a bit groggy.
 And then the sponge was thrown up.
 Under the A. A. U. rules the referee shall have power . to end the round in the event of either man being Knocked down. The referee. however. shall not count over competitor who has been knocked do~n If such knock down. in his opinion. incapacitates the competitor from continuing. the referee must stop the bout and announce the win ner''
 Of course, there was no count neces- sary. but it may easily be termed a rear-knockout Anyway. Boardman didn't go back into the ring and the decision was given to Donza without barley.

SAUER MONTANA MATCH WILL BE CLASSY EVENT
Bout of Championship Cali
 bre Assured When Big
 Fellows Get Together ,x Next Friday Night--Clean , Program Assured by the
 American Legion

A wrestling bout of championship caliber-the kind of a match that pro motors are anxious to make-win be staged at Tally's open-air arena next Friday evening. when Pete Sauer, Ne braska giant, meets Bull Montana. western gorilla, in a finish match, eatch-as-c catch can style. The Sauer- Montana match will be the main event of four-card program, staged under the auspices of the American Legion No bout the local promoters could have scheduled would have assured salt River valley fans better match or one that will develop more thrills. For Sauer and Montana are probably the two most evenly matched light heavyweights In the game today.
 Less than a quarter of an inch in height and pound in weight will be noticed between the two men when they climb through the ropes next Fri day evening. In physical appearance they might well pass as twin brothers.
 Montana Big Drawing Card
 Montana has long since been recOg- nized the great drawing card in the wrestling game. This is not due, par uculariy to the fact that he is of championship caliber, but rather to the confidence which fans have learned 10 invest in him.
 He will give you the best match of any man in the country; a better run for your money and full value to the last penny's worth.p wrote a Los Angeles sport critic to local promoters when attempts were being made to ar range the meeting with Sauer
 Montana is real worker; a grappler who starts with a rush and continues at top speed until victory has been won or lost. His great strength has won him the cognomen of Gorilla" '" which is especially fitting, declare those who have seen him work.
 Phoenix is exceptionally fortunate in securing the Sauer- Montana match, for western promoters have been try ing these many. many months to bring this pair together in q finish bout. Word has just been received, in fact, from a Los Angeles promoter, asking the Phoenix men to transfer the Sauer- Montana match to that city and agree ing to pay substantial amount for the concession.
 Plan Only Best Bouts
 The local men, however, are de- termined to give Arizona fans the best that is to be had at any price and those who attended the opening match be- tween Sauer and pr. John Berg rec ognize that real wrestlers are being offered for approval here.
 The American Legion is co-operat- ing in the staging of all programs al the Tally arena. Good clean cards are assured by members of the athletic committee of the legion, who have per sonal supervision over each match.
 Women are especially invited to at tend, the legion and promoters guar anteeing that the interests of the fem mine sex will be safeguarded a al times and that nothing will be per mitted which could possibly be often sive to them.
 Two fast four-round boxing matches and a wrestling match, limited to 3l minutes, will precede the main even of the evenings program, according ts present arrangements. Complete de tails of the preliminary events will b. announced later.
