00 I Ten. THE ALTOONA TIMES, ALTOONA, PA. Wednesday, Jan. 3, 1917. HENDERSON TO RETURN SOON PLANS BIG BOUT Dr.

B. Frank Roller, one of America's foremost matmen, and Ivan Linow, the Russian giant, will again wrestle in Altoona. Mort Henderson, who has spent a bunch of real American dollars to give Altoona fans some real boxing and wrestling, is now in Butte, Montana, where he has several bouts. He will return about the twenty -fifth and arrange for the Roller- grapple. ru Fans who saw these men wrestle at the Mishler about a month ago, claimed it was the best match ever staged in Altoona.

Dr. Roller, man of science and skill, was able 10 overcome the superhuman strength of the Muscovite. It proved a wonderful match from the first and it will be repeated soon. Linow is anxious to redeem himself and Roller is just as anxious to keep his record 111 good shape in order to meet Joe Stechor, the world's champ. This isn't the only sporting affair in line for Altoonans.

Frank Moran, the heavyweight who gave Jess Willard a run for his money in the spring, is coming here and will meet some man of the same calibre. No "bum" will be picked to meet him. Only a man who has a reputation as a fighter, and can live up to that reputation will be placed in the ring against him. Henderson plans to bring many other good fighters and wrestlers to this city during the spring, and it is costing 21. bunch of money to do it.

AlL he asks is support. His recent events in Aitoona have been great exhibitions, but each time he has had to dig deep into his "sock" to pay expenses. "It's the way of the world, so why should I kick." is way the "Masked Marvel" answers the question, "How did you make TRAVELERS FIVE TRAVEL TOO FAST FOR BURNHAM The Altoona Travelers basket ball team defeated the strong Burnham Y.

Pittsburgh's best fighter in the bantamweight class is fast after Steve Conlin, Altoona's 110 pound plugger. bovs recently fought ten rounds to a draw. the fight being staged in the Smokey City. Lightning, however, is not satisfied with the result, and is sure he can put the sleep produsing powder in one of his jabs to Steve's jaw. Conlin is not saying much, but it is a safe bet that he is ready to meet the Pittsburgher any day in the vear at any place and time.

It is probable that these two men will meet in Altoona in the very near future and a great go can be expected.

COMMISSION ON BASEBALL HOLDS MEETING CINCINNATI, 0., Jan. hearing the request the representatives of the class AA leagues relative to the elimination of the draft from their leagues, the National Baseball commission announced here tonight that it would give careful consideration to the request and then adjourned. the he smaller leagues that at least its The commission also heard a plea from moral influence be help the minor leagues out exertiato was pic- tured to be a most deplorable condition. A. K.

Tearney, of Chicago, president of the Three league, acted as spokesman for the online leagues and urged the commission recommend that a reclassification and reorganization of all minor leagues be made with the idea in view of eliminating excess railroad mileage of teams, re-arrangement of the maximum salary limit and other ideas that he claimed would go far toward putting a large majority of the minor league clubs on to paying basis whereas now they are losing propositions. The commission also took this under advisement, but promised Mr. Tearney that he could rest assured that the commission would do everything in its power to help along the lines laid down by him. Previous to the night meeting, August Herrmann was re-elected president and John E. Bruce secretary for the coming year while a large amount of routine business was transacted and Chairman Herrmann announced that for the first time in recollection every case had disposed of except the matters presented at today's meeting.

The class AA men with President Edward Barrow of the international league and President Thomas Hickey of the American association as men, presented six requests. Sportography INQUISITIVE WILLIE Father, when that golfer missed the ball, He cussed! Why, had to, son, that's all. Or bust! Boxing to aid the European sufferers is all right, but who's going to aid the sufferers who see the fights? A dumb man could wet about as much satisfaction playing golf as a deaf man could get at a modern boxing bout. runners don't seem to be prevalent as they used to be--probably because they have taken up boxing. One oftc.

hears of puglists engaging in a fight to settle a grudge, but one notes that it is never a grudge against money. It's easy to criticise boxers, but if we had to name the worst fighter in the world we'l want to be sure we could run faster than he. Spring training is necessary for ball players, because some of 'em scarcely touch a card all winter long, and get mighty rusty in their poker. Any umpir. who umps north of Mason's and Dixon's ought to be thankful that he doesn't have to perpetrate his profession in winter when the raw material for snowballs is plentiful.

It's tough, old Joe, you got the can, and now must be an alsoran; but, Joe, that's just the human breed- all men cheer when you sueceed, and all men pan you when you fail. Good-by, old Cub; ta-ta, old Whale! Tennis players are very much tated just now over the proposed stricter definition of amateurism, which it is alleged, would bar from tournaments about a quarter of the stars of game. The sporting goods clause would make it necessary for many of the top-notchers of tennis to wear a professional label.

Apparently there is a great division of sentiment on this and other points. Some of the racquet wielders believe that the game would be improved by eliminating from the championchips those whose livelihood is in any way dependent upon reputation they have achieved in the court game. Others are standing firmly for what they call a "liberal" interpretation of the rules but tennis "liberalism" varies widely. One gathers the impression that some of the "liberals" believe that an amateur should be defined as a person who is under seven feet in height, weighs less than 500 pounds, and abstains from cocktails before breakfast. WHERE IT STARTED When ancient Babylon was a new and bustling frontier town, with a population, according to Chamber of Commerce estimates, of 50,000, there was a blind beggar who played a hand organ at the corner of Main and Poplar every winter for many years.

One dav Bill Timpkins, proprietor of the Timpkins Smoke House and Billiard Academy, dropped a nickel in the tin cup of the beggar, and then remarked: "Old timer, where do thou keepeth thyself of 2 summer? Every winter morn, as I rosseth this corner, my ears heareth what thou pleaseth to call mu- sic, but on a summer morn never. Pray telleth me. why is this thus." "Sooth. an' thy question is easily answered" quavered the blind man. "Hast thou not witnesseth that in summer I umpireth the baseball games When the magnates are through with their economy spree, any player who hasn't had his salary shaved should be as thankful as a turkey that has got through Thanksgiving and Christmas with his neck intact.

Lots of spectators survive a six-dav bievele race, but think of the terrible mortality there would be if there should be a six day basket ball game!

LAWYER FLETCHER WILL DEFEND WENDTS; PENNSY ATTORNEYS FIGHT CASE The quarterly separation of "the wheat from the chaff' by the Blair county grand jury, commenced at Hollidaysburg yesterday morning. Of the twenty-four jurors summoned for service, one was excused and one was re: ported ill.

Edward J. Bigley, of this city, was appointed foreman and Constable Orlando Brenner, of the First ward, Hollidaysburg, was assigned to call witnesses. Attorney Oliver H. Hewit presented to court a remonstrance against the proposition to build a bridge over the Juniata river at Lower Reese station, for the following reasons: The estimated cost would be if built it would benefit not more than one-half dozen people and the township of Frankstown would obliged to build the approaches and obtain the right of way, the estimate cost of which would be in the neighborhood of $6,000. ROAD TAX HEAVY.

The petitioners aver that Frankstown; township taxpayers last Vear paid 15 mills road tax, and if the bridge is authorized, the burden will be unbearable. Judge Thomas J. Baldrige directed the remonstrance to be filed and presented grand jury. The remonstrance touthe numerousfy signed.

LAID OUT BY VIEWERS. The road was laid out by viewers, attorney argued, on pefition of the townships' citizens, and the courts have held that, bridges' are parts or roads, and as the road Was taken off the corporation's hands, there be no relief obtained by mandamus.

The road and bridge are in bad shape. A dispute has arisen as to the location of the line between the two townships, because of a change of the course of the Juniata river, which the bridge in question spans. Blair township repaired what it believed was its portion of road, but denied ownership of the bridge.
