the Philadelphians showed what they
could do by taking two closely contested

that the New York pair began to weaken

went to. the Quakers.
.'t Stanley; w. Pearson, the national squash

"UnconditionnI Surrender Say Federal
Officials I'm Charge.

CHICAGO, Thursday. - Unconditional
surrender" is the only basis on which
local federal officials will treat with Jack
Johnson, negro pugilist. This announce
ment was made today by District Attor-
ney Charles Il. Clyne. after reading the
Associated Press despatch from Mexico
City TO the effect that Johnson planned
to return TO the United States and face
his penitentiary sentence for violation of
the Mann act. Johnson fled to Europe N
1918 while out on bail.
'Some time ago an attorney called on me
to intercede for Johnson said Mr.. Clyne.
"and later, an agent of the former cham
pion visited me. but told them that 'un-
conditional surrender was the only basis
on which l could proceed"
Johnsons indictment was the result Of
charges that he paid the railroad fare Of
a woman from Pittsburg to Chicago, and
he was sentenced to one year in the peni-
tentiary and fined $1,000

ANNAPOLIS. Md. Thursday. y.-The Sc
lection of July as the date for tho
Poughkeepsie regatta makes the entry OF
the Naval Academy crews as very un-
likely, according TO Commander Douglas
l.. Howard. athletic officer there. as the
midshipmen will have been on their sum
mer cruise for several weeks and may be
hundreds Of miles from the Hudson. The
academy mana cement had stated that *
would enter it's crews if practicable. but
named the middle Of June as the proba bic
dead line for Il.
The only circumstance which would
make tho entry possible would be for the
Navy Department to determine upon a
cruise which would keep the practice
squadron near the New England or Mid

is not regarded as likely that they will
do this, however. particularly as cruising

JIMMY WILDE WINS
WITH A KNOCKOUT
British Flyweight Champion Dispose:
of Mike Ertle, of st. Paul, in
Third Round at Milwaukee.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis. Thursday.-Jimny
Wilde, flyweight champion boxer OF Eng
land, knocked out Mike Ertle. of st. Paul.
early in the third round OF a. ten round
bout here tonight. Wnde's opponent is
brother of Johnny Ertle. who a few years
ago was considered one OF the best ban
tamweights in the country.
The blow that stopped Ertle was a right
hand one to the jaw, which followed a
straight left to the face.
Wilde was the first to land in the open
ing session. Ertle got in some good right
and left blows to head and body but this
apparently did not bother the Englishman
In the second round Wilde scored with
right and left blows to head and body at
will and leaped away from anything dam
gerous offered by Ertle, the round ended
with Wilde having much the advantage.
The Englishman waded in a fast clip
as the third opened, offering rights and
lefts to head and body without any dam
aging returns. In about a minute Wilde
caught the st. Pau man with stiff right
to the jaw. Ertle's hands dropped to his
side and a second later he reeled, fell to
the canvas and was counted out. He
tried to rise but couldn't make the effort
in the prescribed time.
Ertle was chosen TO box Wilde after the
milwaukee, promoters hau falled 10 close
match with frankie Mason. of Fort
Wayne, Ind, who is recognized as the
American flyweight champion. Mason re-
fused the match because he said he could
get better Inducements elsewhere than
those offered. by Milwaukee.
This was Wilde's third bout in this
&C ountry. He was keenly disappointed be-
cause he failed to defeat Jack Sha rkey in
his first American contest, but his victory
over Johnny Asher in st. Louis made him
| feel better.

AVERAGES 18 1915
Chicago Amateur Cueist Plays Five
Games in Defeating P. P. Trump,
of Pittsburg, in 1872 Balkline.

Displaying phenomenal skill at the short
table game, David McAndless. the national
champion. closely approached record fig
ures in his match in the Eastern Class A
ibalkllne championship tournament at the
Amateur Billiard Club Of New York yes
terday. The young star from Chicago
completed his string OF 900 points with an
average of IS 1916 and high runs Of 122. So
and so. -a st
McAndless defeated Percy p. Trump. OF
the Pittsburg Athletic Club. whose good
cue work only tailed 129 for his string.
He had top runs of 81. q and II and an
average Of 1-16 The defeat marked the
third consecutive loss for Trump in the
NEWLY instituted tournament under. the d.
ERECTION of the National Association OF
Anna teur Billiard Players.
The easy fluency of McAndless' stroke
and mis- ability TO hold the object balls
a-stradde of the line at the end of the
his impressive clusters. He counted his
run of l22 on his fifteenth turn at the
table. Beginning from collectedsileave
he soon was counting rapidly by very short
drives and draws to the cushions. This
was enlvened byfan occasional masse as
he sent the cue ball pirouetting about the
others for the carom. His full length
table drives We're few. ..
All the delicacy of McAndless' nursing
stroke failed to keep the ivory Eobes from
showing a disposition to line up toward
the end. Eventually the balls formed
along the cushion in a way to make q
masse impossible. In an attempt. at a
cross table bank shot the champion failed
to count and had to await his next inning
to complete the match. ~
