RECORD ENTRY LIST ASSURED FOR BIG MEET 1 Increasing Demand for Entry Blanks Proves That A.M. A. Championships Will Be Most Popular The increasing: demand for blanks for the second annual indor track and field championships of the Allegheny Mountain association of I the A. A. to be held at Duquesne i Garden, Saturday afternoon, March under the auspices of THE PRESS proves conclusively that the big feature event of the season will be the most popular affair ever staged jn tins section of the country.

Blanks have been sent to all of the clubs fostering: athletics in Western Pennsylvania and many of these are sending- in for additional ones with the note that their rupply has already exhausted. The unprecedented demand for the entry blanks is probably due to the fact that many of the soldier boys who were members of the clrbs together with others whose interest in athletics has been stimulated by active outdoor lii'e while in the army and who have joined local clubs since returning from camp or overseas have takf-n up the track and field game and nat-urtally want to compete in the biggest indoor event of the season. In the open events, the university of Pittsburg and Westinghouse club will enter full teams of athletes which it is expected will make the going exceedingly fas tin this branch of the A probable attraction will-bo Frank Shea of Pitt, national 440-yard champion, who may be an entrant In some of the events. With the array of talent these clubs will put on the field together with that of other clubs that have signified their intention of entering there is no reason why some of the records set at last, year's meet should not be broken. In the junior events Troop 3 of the Crafton Hoy Scouts will have a full team entered.

A note from i rank W. Hall, scoutmaster, asks for 25 blanks for entering the boy athletes of that section. The Crafton boys should make a very creditable showing at this affair as in the meet held in December th'-y we-e at the top in the number of points, scored for the track events but fell down because they had" no entrants in the field sports. However, since that time they have developed a number of boys for these events and it is expected that they will be at the top of the lirt when the meet is over. The prizes will be well worth striving for.

In the championship events, regulation Allegheny Mountain association A. A. U. cold, silver and bronze medals will be awarded for firs, second and third places in each event. For the boys' events, specially designed PRESS medals will be given.

Handsome trophies will also be given to the teams or clubs scoring the greatest number of points in the championship and junior events. Entry blanks fr the big free meet are now ready and have been mailed to most of the clubs in and around Pittsburg which foster athletics. Other clubs and unattached athletes can secure them at the office of Secretary John T. Taylor of the A. A.

EXHIBITION Beaver Falls at Rochester. By L. H. Wollen. This afternoon tie Fifth Ave.

five will engage the South team on the Y. M. H. A. floor.

The outcome of this eame will determine whether the Orange and Black crew will be tied with Westinghouse for the top position or if they will still have undisputed possession of first place. That they will not have an easy battle on their hands is certain. The Fifth lads are going the- game determined to whip the leaders, and that the fanas who witness the contest will see a close, hsrd battle is anticipated. Coach Doyle has had his men hard at work since the Westinghouse contest and he expects them to show up better this afternoon. He may make several changes in the lineup at the last moment in an effort to get his team out of the rut.

Schenley will travel to the South Hilis and battle with the tunnel five on its floor. This game should be another hard fough one. as the Oak-landers have played improved ball in the last fen games. They will have no easy sailing however, as Coach Carson's lads showed in the game with Peabody Friuay that they have again hit their stride and are playing a good game. Braddock looks like, the winner of the pennant in the second section.

This team has lost but one game and it will take some fast playing on the part of the other fives in the league to dethrone it. Bellevue. in Section has not so secure a hold on the top rung. This five plays Xew Biighton this afternoon and should it be defeated a tie with Butler will exist for the first position. The race in this section is exceedingly close, and the winner may not be decided until the last game i3 playod.

Monessen is seriously ensconced In first place In 'he fourth section. The honors seem certain to go to this team unless the games yet to be played result differently than expected at this time. Tarentum. in first up in Section 5, is just a game and a half ahead of Xew Kensington, runner-up. These teams meet Friday and the 'outcome of this game will either put Xew Kensington practically lut of the running or make the competition for the top position more keen.

WESTINGHOUSE WIN'S. Westinghouse high school five had no trouble with the Peabody team yesterday, winning by the score of 53 to 3. Even with second string men in the lineup at the first of the game. Burton's lads piled up a comfortable lead and the result was never in doubt. In the last part of the contest regulars were injected into the game and made many hard shots from all angles.

Youngk and bosy starred for Westinghouse while Martin and Gib-eon were the best individual players for the losers. Westinghouse 53. Peabody 38. Martin OibHon King: Thomas Tounek Martin Beatty White Roese Bornman Substitutions Dosey for Martin. Bell for Roese.

"What's Wrong- with Wrestling, published in the March Issue of Physical -Culture. Dr. B. F. Holler, one of America's best known grapplers, pays his respects to the so-called "trust," and tells how a syndicate of managers or promoters have ruined the sport in this country.

After declaring- that a great love for the mat sport still exists, as is evidenced by the large crowds that patronize the matches whenever held, he says; "The public wants wrestling-, and will pay fabulous sums to see good wrestling-. liut when a few managers get together with a stable of men they can control, and agree to give and take, and conduct a certain number of exhibitions, at the end of which there is stil no winner or no loser among them, agreeing meanwhile to bar from competition anybody who cannot be controlled, providing he is good enough to menace their well-laid plans and thereby cut in on the money, theq the public does i.ot get a run for its money, and the game falls quickly into disrepute. That's the condition of affairs in New York right now." He "They 4the managers) lave been extremely careful to fee that at the close of the series of contests there is no winner or loser. The is no wiser and particularly on account of the fact that there is no loser, no manager has been compelled to sacrifice. That is why there is no wrestling i-hampion in the United States today.

If wrestlers were left alone, they would wrestle, and the question would soon be settled, but the wrestlers are not free to do as they please they mjst do as their managers say, and their managers are out for the money. What is-more, a manager is not going to let his man be beaten on the square or lose even in an exhibition if he can help it, for righteous fear that each and every defeat detracts from a wrestler's drawing capacity. I'IBLir PtRTJ.Y- ''That is a very unfortunate situation for which the American public is partly responsible. We prize, in this country, only a winner. A man will be followed, applauded and idolized by everybody so long as he wins.

The moment he loses nobody pays any attention to him. Many thousands of people hailed Jeffries at every stop in his famous barn-storming tour. A great many thousands of people paid little short of a half million dollars to see him fight Johnson because he was champion and up to that time a winner. The day after he was defeated, only people went to the station to see him off. Hack-enschmidt received a thousand dollars a week for years, and twenty thousand dollars above expenses for a four months tour in country and drew more than eighty-seven thour-ar.

dollars in his match with Gotch in Chicago. bec.je up to that time, he had been a winner. The day after he was defeated I do not bel'eve he could have drawn one hundred dollars in any house in this country, and he has never been heard of since. WINNER ALWAYS IDOLIZED. The trait in the American people to Melize a winner and forget entire ly a is unfortunate and something that I have always openly deplore.

It is my candid judgment often it tak-s a better mi i. trtre ports goes, to be a g.od loser than it does to be a poor winner, and in many a contest that I havt-seen, I have tonally admire: f.T mere the loser than the winner. Ir.e very that try public the winner and war ts to see only man who wins and wins all the tinv, makes wrestlers ond managers realize the fact if a man loses a time or two he cannot draw rconev ari that the public want to ice him. In which they would hae a chance of being dele ito l. "That's the exact condition of affairs, existing tDdav th? public loves a winner and that's why the managers have- been particularly careful to see that the big men wrestle only those fellow within the cirlce.

Of course, the "trust" managers can bring thlr own men together as often as they like, figurin" always that a dra at the end of one or two or more or that (he loss of a decision, on points or a foul, or by getting hurt, does not detract frOm the drawing poA-er of the loser like a defeat by flat falls which the public wants and has rt rUrht to see. "That explains why Lewis. Steelier Caddock and Zbysko have been so easily gotten together in the series of matches staged between them in which, as Marsh says, there has never yet been a flat defeat. Xobodv has lost anything and nobody has gained anything except monev." Rimersburg Wins. Rimerxburg basketball team won its eighteenth game of the season when it defeated the strong Altoona A team by the score of 41 to It was the fastest game played on Rimersburg floor this season.

Altoona. with a string ctf Wins and 1 only one defeat, has played some of the best teams in that part of the slate, such as Slag, club of Lock Haven' Tyrone M. tlJu-, Donaldson and Grant played best for Rimersburg while Cheers and Baker played best for Altoona" Lineups Rimfirsbure 43. i Donaldson P.

I treat each case according" to its requirements, satisfy myself as to the exact condition by careful examination and inquiry. Urinary obstruction in any is not difficult to remedy, and by my method of irrigation and digestion I am able to correct the most severe cases. I do not cut or dilate, and when I have dismissed a case the urinary canal is sound and healthy and perfectly natural. CONTRACTED DISEASES above all others should have the most careful attention from the very beginning. Improper treatment often lays the foundation for constriction, prostatic complication, etc.

He SMire to i.rt-in Office. 0l ill Foe Cincinnati, Feb. 25. A mark on the left thumb and a long scar on the right side of his face are testimony of the narrow escape Alfred Decatur, well-knowR amateur ballplayer, had during the war. Decatur is one of four brothers'who live in Plainville, all ball players, and three of the quartet served in France.

Al Decatur was with the Fifth Marines and has just returned home. "A machine bullet, after hitting my thumb a glancing blow, was deflected just enough to avoid hitting me square in the mouth," said Decatur. "Instead it scraped my face and cut deep enough to requ.ire 44 stitches. This happened on Oct. 4, in the Champagne campaign.

We had just been ordered to clear out "a German machine gun nest. Thirty of us went over the top. and just as we got into action I was hit. I was in the hospital several months." Decatur enlisted in May of l-ist year and was over there in time for the St. Mihiel battle, but he says that affair was tame, compare-d to the Champagne campaign.

Hab Decatur, the youngest brother, was killed in the Chateau-Thierry battle. He was with the Sixth Marines. Another brother. Elmer, now is with the Twenty-sixth Xew England division in Frame. Arthur Decatur, the pitcher, was exempted because he was the only one remaining to support their widowed mother.

During the war 4e had essential employment at Dayton. O. NEW YORK YANKEES' STARS CAPITULATE Xew York. Feb. Signs of capitulation by the Yankee stars were discerned yesterday when Walter Pipp.

the first baseman, sent his signed contract from his home in Grand Rapids and Duffy Lewis, the slugging outfielder obtained in the deal with the Pedso.t. was brought into line by Bob Connery. the Yankee scout who met Lewis in Fresno. Cal. Connery was sent ot California by Miller Huggins to complete the Quirm deal with the Vernon club and to sign Lewis.

The former Kedsox star had been ouoted as demanding some of the purchase money Harry Fra-zec received for his refease before he would come to New York. Connery evidently was successful in appeasing Lewis, as he wired to the club yesterday "Lewis has accepted terms; everything satisfactory. 0'Dowd Challenges Carpenter Paris, Feb. Mike Dowd. the work! middleweight champion, issued a formal challenge to Georges Carpenter, European heavyweight champion, from the ring of the Circque, Paris.
