Neither Man Able to Score Fall, But Gotch Was on Offensive When the Bout Was Ended. Frank Gotch, heavyweight wrest ling champion of the world. This is the title the Humboldt giant won in Chicago last night when George Hack-enschmidt, holder of the title, quit the rmf after two hours of wrestling, dur ing wnicn neither man secured a Ian.

lae prediction made by Jack urkecK a week ago that if Gotch could hold out twenty minutes against the Russian Lion he would win proved true. (The Lion proved himself what Car-keek said he was a quitter. Gotch displayed speed that was startling to his friends, and Hack looked worried when he failed repeatedly to secure his holds. The men worked on their feet for nearly an hour, then the Lion slapped Gotch to the mat. The American bounded to his feet before Hack could follow up his advantage, however.

He wore a smile that exasperated the 'Russian and the patriotism of Americans cheering for I him was like wine to inspire "Hack" Roughly Used. The match was no pink-tea affair. Gotch entered the ring at the short end of the betting. He met "Hack" for the first time when called to the center of the ring by Referee Ed Smith at 10:25. They were at it at 10:27.

After an hour Gotch appeared the fresher of the two. It looked as though he would worry Hacken-schmidt into defeat. His skin was frightfully scraped by the calloused hands of Gotch; there was a cut under his right eye and blood from it blinded and worried him. He complained of Gotch's tactics to the referee, but there was nothing doing. Always the match seemed to swing Gotchward.

As the second hour wore on it was the American who was doing the offensive work. He was rushing his mightier opponent and those who witnessed the bout there was a house were unanimous that eventually Gotch would have worked the deadly toe hold for a fall. The invader realized this better than anyone and quit the ring. SPRING TRAINING GAMES, Chicago Cubs Birmingham 2. Chicago White Sox Dayton 1.

BRING RESULTS CARLISLE HAS A CLOSE CALL FROM BAD INJURY Former Islander Player Performs Well in Game Between Boston Americans II and University of Illinois. Illinois was shut out yesterday in the first game of the season, the second team of the Boston Americans turning the trick. Hinrichsen, the Davenport lad who gave promise during his freshman year of developing into a wonderful pitcher, twirled the entire game for the Illini, and he deserved a closer score than 4 to 0. Carlisle, the former Islander, is leading off in the batting for the Red Sox, as the Boston team will be known this season. He ran into an iron fence while chasing a hard fly in the early stages of the game and was rendered unconscious.

He recovered in a few minutes and was able to continue through the game. The escape from serious injury was fortunate.
