No Gard Monday
The Legion matchmaker announced
last night that there will be no card
at the Coliseum Monday evening as
the fans will get their fill of fighting
with two cards this week. However
plans are under way for the next big
show one week from Monday.
To Help the Boxing Game
Instead of the two boxing clubs
conducting weekly bouts in the city,
it would work to the advantage of all
concerned If an arrangement could be
made whereby the clubs would stage
bouts on alternate weeks
Hold two good boxing cards each
month, the Disabled Vets taking one
week at the Capital City arena and
the Legion staging a card down town
two weeks later. They could also
arrange two preliminary nights each
month, the clubs alternating on the
dates.
In this manner the fans could en-
Joy a bout every week.. one week
preliminary boys, and the following
week a big time card. Both clubs
could make money, there would be
no conflicting dates, and boxers, fans
and the clubs could work in harmony.
If the two clubs could get together
on this plan and stage two big cards
each month it would mean big saw
ing in expenses and give each pro-
moter two weeks to get his card
ready instead Of rushing through
with plans each week as at present.
In California, where the boxing clubs
are numerous and hundreds of box
ers are within easy reach, there is no
trouble getting weekly cards billed
but where it is necessary TO import

Chet Neff and Red Milburn will

Globe fight circles. Chet will leave
the latter part of the week for Miami

vorte and so is Chet, so the boys

InfieId Defense
Great Asset To
Penllant Winner

A strong defense means much in
baseball.
No team was a better example Of
this theory than the Chicago White
Sox Of 1906.
The White Sox were known as the
"Hitless Wonders" The Chicago
team seldom made more than three
or four runs in a game.
Three or four runs were usually
enough to win. however, since the
club had great defense. backed up
by a fine pitching staff.
The defense of q ball club centers
around the infield. 1t is the inner
wall A good outfield is very neces-
sary. but the percentage of ground
balls is much greater than balls hit
in the air.
That is why good infield means
SO much to ball club. Perfect exc
cution OF plays on the part of the
infield does much to break down the
offensive of an opponent.
There is nothing more discourag-
ing than to see the infielders cut off
base hits by sensational plays afield.
1t not only breaks down the morale
of the opponent, but holsters up the
confidence of the pitcher.
Which major league club boasts
the best infield?
If you happen to be a National
league partisan without any hesita-
tion you would say the New York
Giants.
If you are strong for the Johnson
ian circuit you would no doubt pick
the Washington club.
Groh Strengthens lnfield
The addition of Heine Groh has

Of the best in the history of the
game.
The coming of Groh means that

To PASS ON STATUS
Of DANCE HALL LAW

For the first time tsince the pas
sage of the session law of 1921 giving
cities of the state power to license
and regulate places of amusement the
superior court of the state will be
called upon to pass an opinion as to
the status of the dance hall. The oc-
casion will be the case of the state
against Richards and Mace, charged
with conducting a public dance hall
in violation of the law.
The appeal to the superior court on
this case was taken yesterday when
Justice Henry ]. Sullivan sustained
demurrer and dismissed the charges.
Lee and Ray Brandon. charged with
a similar offense. were found not
guilty by jury in the same court
last week. Another charge of the
same nature is pending against LLOYD
Jones and ]. A. Billingsley. This case
will not be called for hearing until
after the superior court has handed
down decision in the Richards and
Mace case.

Bancroft and Peckinpaugh rate
about the same to me. ShaniSs is a
fine player. but Groh must be given
the edge at third.
A Draw Good Decision
Let us say that Frisch and Harris
and Bancroft and Peckinpaugh are
even stephen. Judge has the edge
on Kelly and Groh has it on SlankS.
That makes it all even. Our decision
is a draw.
The Cardinal infield of Hornsby,
Lavan, Stock ana Fournier rates
close up to the Giants in the National
league.
In the American Cleveland and
New York are the runners up. The
addition Of McInnis rounds out the

way suffers by the passing Of Peck

In both leagues every club has
one or more stars on it's infield, but
have a certain weakness at one posi-
ton. For example. the st. Louis
Browns have two stars in Gerber and
Siser, while Pittsburg has Maran-
vile and Grimm.

To END TRESPASS
ON GROUNDS Of P. D.

Acting under the orders of Wash
ington, S. J. Nicholson. postmaster,
announced yesterday that to prevent
interference with the affairs of the
postoffice and to preserve the ap-
pearance of tht grounds in the rear
of the building, an immediate halt is
to be called to the practice of tres
passing.
After due warning has been served
upon those who continue to use the
rear of the postoffice as a common
thoroughfare the task of preventing
what has become a nuisance will be
placed in the hands of the United
States marshal with instructions to
use every means at his discretion to
prevent the continuance of what is
said to have become a real disorder.
Emphasis was laid yesterday on the
fact that the steps being taken by the
authorities do not concern only the
grounds and the destruction of the
lawns, but interference with the busi-
ness of the postoffice, much of which
is carried on upon the platforms and
driveways in the rear of the building.
The order concerns not only pedest-
rians but automobile drivers as well.

was contained in a letter received
yesterday by Chief Schafer of the
East Moline police department
from H. F. Rikhoff, chief of the
Indianapolis police department
Henderson was arrested in Indian
apolis March 10. Marshall was
committed for a similar period.
Both men were convicted for the

an Indianapolis merchant. Mar
