PAGE SEVENTEEN Senators Are Headed! Mere; THE EVENING NEWS, HARRISBURG, TUESDAY, MARCH 30, 1926 CM Athletics Look to Lefty Johnson Ready to Greet 1926 Senators With Work -IV SAYS Plot Thursday TUNNEY INLINE BUT JACK SAYS 'NO, NO' TO TEX NEW YORK, March 30. Tex Rickard, who generally knows his way around in the boxing racket, has signed Gene Tunney to 'fight Jack Dempsey and is trying to lineup the heavyweight champion by dangling a halt "of nearly half a million dollars Groves and To Supply By BILLY EVANS FT. MYERS, March 30r-The Philadelphia Athletics lost the American League pennant last season because they faltered in the stretch due to lack of poise. The Athletics comprise a great ball club. Any team that beats the Mack-men out this year is going to be mighty close to the top.

As I watched the Athletics prepare for the coming grind that Connie Mack hopes will bring him his first pennant since 1914, the actions of one athlete stood out. He struck me as the most valuable addition of the winter to the Athletics. I have in mind that' yeuthful rookie, William Kid Gleason, age 62, as spry as any man on the field and, as Al Simmons remarked to me: "He can trim anybody on the ball club." Al had reference to physical prowess. Wbrk Already Apparent I look for Kid Gleason to work marvelous change for the better in the morale of the As a matter of fact, it is already apparent. Gleason is one of baseball's most colorful characters.

He understands men. He caters to a player's disposition and temperament. He gets the most out ot him. Kid Gleason is making the Mack-men believe in their1 greatness. On each individual he is impressing the fact that there isn't a better ball club in the league than the A's.

Likewise, he is stressing the importance of the work of each player in bringing about a desired result the winning of the pennant. Any ball player who has ever IIOPPE DESPITE RECORD RUN, IS TRAILING BY 56 NEW YORK, March 30. Jacob Schaefer, the younger, ran into the lead at the end of the first day of play for the world's 18.1 balkline billiards championship, when ho scored 368 points to 244 in the evening block, at Dwyer's Academy, after Willie Hoppe, the champion since 1912, had run away with the first block in the afternoon, 300 to 232. In the afternoon, Hoppe had set a new record for 18.1 balkline billiards, by a run of 148, eclipsing the of 140 which the late Frank Ives had made in a match against George Sutton, way back in 1897, at Madison Square Garden, concert hall. But though the champion displayed the finest sort of play in both sessions, confining himself to close nursing for the greater part and only shifting to open play to escape from balk, an attack of quinsy which had been increasing all day handicapped his efforts toward the end of the evening, and Schaefer overtook him with a run of 109, and then held the upper hand for the balance of the block.

Both players definitely abandoned the sort of open play that has been regarded as necessary in 18.1, in favor of the close nursing that is the feature of 18.2, and it was in this way that the high runs were made by both. The play of Hoppe was better in brilliancy, but he weakened badly in the end, and with the steadiness of Schaefer playing a great part in the final innings, the match became one-sided. Hoppe, starting with a lead of sixty-eight in the evening, failed in his opening shot, and Schaefer took the lead at the start of the fourth inning as the result of a series of short-runs. But Hoppe displayed his greatest skill at nursing in the next turn at the table, when he ran 108 right near the without driving the object ball the length of the table more than three times in the' entire session. But Schaefer adopted similar tactics, and came back two innings later with a run of 109 in similar fashion, in which only an almost impossible masse prevented further progress.

GINDERP ATI! AND TRACK ATHLETES AT TECH CALLED The two last programs on Tech High's athletic slate baseball and track will be promoted Into. real activity this afternoon with the gathering of athletes at the Maroon institution." Unsuccessful in, its effort to close its career with a State basketball championship, Tech is eager to gather high honors on the track and diamond and with a large percentage of veteran material available, especially in track, the hopes may be justified. The Hickok field will be prodded by Tech cleats this afternoon, but the trackmen probably will defer actual work until tomorrow. The gathering today will be given over to a talk by Coach Beck, who will instruct the budding stars and those already established. in the fundamental laws of training.

Coach Dewire will have three pitchers, a similar number of catchers, two inflelders and an outfielder to start with, and with numerous other aspirants who have been doing more or less diamond worb is expected to turn out a competent team. The development of the Maroon will have to be rapid, for its first game is scheduled with Danville High School, April 10, at Annville. Gettysburg High, the first opponent met in the western division of the Pennsylvania Inter-Scholastic Baseball League, is next on April 17. The track squad will be strong with veterans, the only event that recognizes a paucity of capable performers being the high hurdles. Beck will have Long for the century, furlong and relay, while Graham, in addition to being a star over the low hurdles and broad jump, is a sprinter and relay worker.

Heilman, Byrnes, Anderson and Pendergast are other speedy youths over the 440. Byrnes combines the quarter with the half mile, a combination also adopted by Pendergast and Kitzmiller, who is also expected to play with the nine, is a high jumper, pole vaulter and capable in several field events, while Ernst Is the mile and two-mile leader. Mitcher in the low hurdles and high jump, Hoover in the shotput and Putt In the Pole vault complete the veterans. In addition, some likely looking material has come to Tech from Edison and Camp Curtln and should help things along. his arrival brought the first announcement of his acquisition by the club.

Just what Artz can do and how much remains to be demonstrated. Johnson, however, thinks highly of the youth and expects him to be around as reserve catcher, unless Artz changes the program by beating out the other candidates. Just how many of the team members will flock around Johnson Thursday is open for conjecture, for several are coming from far distances and may be tardy in arriving. However the squad is expected to be complete in every detail by Monday. Lee Dempsey, one of the original native sons, sent a wire from the coast yesterday that he was starting the voyage across the continent.

Inasmuch as telegraph tolls 'are not legitimate -expense, Big Lee did not mention that he is hoping for the best season of his career. Expect Faster Ball Andy Phillips, expected by Johnson to curve the Senators into fifteen or more victories, is motoring here. A letter from New Mexico was received yesterday and the fact that it preceded Phillips here may be -considered a boost for the postal service and something for the National Chamber of Commerce to exult over. That the New York-Penn, which has been training steadily in strength, will conduct its affairs faster than ever Is indicated by reports reaching here from home camps of the seven other entries. Williamsport and York have been especially busy in gathering ball artists.

Membership Drive Is Launched by M.P.A.A. The Motive Power A. ringleader in. the worthy project to'form a City baseball league and to keep the two-light game from a silent death, is holding, a membership drive and expects to have -2500 names on the books before the campaign terminates April 6. Reports today indicate that shopmen of the Pennsy who, formerly belonged to the association are rapidly renewing their memb'ershrp cards, now that Motive Power has re-established itself in the athletic sun.

Harris and King Are Cue Victims of Gruver Johnny Harris and Dick King, capable three-cushion billiardists, are wiser chaps today. Harris and King picked on 'Charlie 'Gruver, veteran star, -by request last evening and dropped their respective matches in the tournament now raging at the Casino. Harris was bumped off by Gruver, 25 to 14, while King suffered a 25-18 setback. Gruver compiled the fifty points in 101 innings, which gives an idea of the game he was flashing York Haven Bids for Berth in County Loop YORK, March 30. William H.

Koch, of York Haven, has been elected manager of the baseball team of that place and plans are being made to obtain a berth in the York County League. The league meeting will be held early in April. The club has already enrolled thirteen players. Charles E. Kephart has been chosen business manager, On Island Having labored industriously throughout the cold months gathering ball bullies, selling season tickets, arranging exhibition games, attending official and semi-official meetings, writing letters and more letters and performing a few other odds and ends, Boss Rankin Johnson will now go to work.

The vanguard of the Senators, 1926 edition and without a disturbing past, are expected to reach here tomorrow although Governor Pinchot has not called a special session to settle all outstanding coal strikes, if any. To many of the players the city will be new territory, as Johnson has gathered the current band from all directions and all distances. Naturally, there will be familiar figures inflating uniforms, this being especially noticeable in the pitching staff and outfield, but strangers will be wondering about and will have to be investigated. Arts First Arrival Although fire made a noble effort yesterday to level the Island bleachers, this incident will not postpone the first gathering of the clan on Thursday. Johnson will then step from behind his desk, remove his eyeshade, lock his pencils and other official paraphernalia in the office safe and assume his more normal job of bossing the fly chasers.

Beating the field by a wide margin to the base of operation was Joe Artz, who arrived yesterday to catch anything that is thrown his way. This, of course, includes a regular job. Artz is a native of Pittsburgh, which should not be held against him, and STROTIIERS CLAN WILL TWO-TIME Imitating the versatile, gent who could brush his teeth while walking on his hands across a stretch strewn with broken beer bottles, the Harrisburg Giants will baseball this season in two leagues and play in both of them at the same time. This ambiguous performance was outlined today for the public and others by Colonel Strothers, portly owner and cashier of the Giants, so it must be so. Two other members of the Eastern Colored League, Bach-arach Giants and Hilldale, have joined the new Inter-State League along with the local Giants and arrangements have been made so that this trinity may figure in two games although only playing one.

When Hilldale and Bacharach come to a common meeting ground the verdict will be adopted for both the Eastern and Inter-State circuits, while the same will be true with any other combination in the two-league members. Inasmuch as the Inter-State will sponsor a schedule of ninety games and the Eastern seventy, the closing weeks of the campaign should terminate the two-timing. The Giants will collaborate with the Senators in spring training on the Island, arrangements having been made so that the two teams will not conflict. A number of the Giants are expected to reach here tomorrow and iro to work Thursday, although the larger batch probably will not be seen until next week, the first several days being devoted to pitchers and catchers.

Has World of Stuff In the ranks of the Athletids is a pitcher who, aside from just about holds the destiny of the club in his hands. I am speaking of Lefty Groves. If Lefty Groves can win twenty ball games the Athletics will be tough to beat. If he can turn in twehty-flve victories the team will be all the tougher.

I watched Groves pitch five innings against the Philadelphia Nationals at Bradentown. It was the most im pressive snrine Ditching I have seen Groves retired nine of the fifteen batters on strikes. It seemed as if he had two strikes on every man that faced, him. He allowed only four hits. No pitcher in the majors has more stuff than Groves.

Lack of control has been fatal Two men, Kid Gleason and Lefty Groves, are the high spots in the Ath letics. Gleason will supply the team with much-needed poise.

Bucky Harris Favors Giants Over Pirates 1 TAMPA, March 30. Bucky Harris, manager of the Washington Senators, likes the New York Giants' chances of winning the National League pennant. "I like the Giants," said Harris "Pittsburgh has a good ball club, but I think McGraws team will come back this year and win the pennant. Last year their chances were injured by many accidents. "The Giants pitching staff is better this year and I figure it will put them in front.

I'm willing to bet a suit of clothes, that they'll win the pennant." Helen Wills Wins and Loses on Rome Courts ROME, March 80.

printed record of a fighter litl a line on his real ability, especially after a lapse of I am speaking specifically- of the knockout You know that in many cases the knockouts are more or less of a joke. I suppose that The Manly Art of scrambling uars was just the same in this respect years ago as it is today, so I pay scant attention to those old knockout records. On knockouts you would be able to prove that Fighting Bob Martin and Big Bill Brennan were among the greatest heavyweights that ever a rating that I am sure will not be demanded by the warmest ad mirers of either of these gentlemen. along with them would be Tom Gibbons, of St. Paul, who once compiled a record of something like twenty-one consecutive knockouts, and yet I doubt that Tom himself would expect all of these, knockouts to be taken seriously.

The record of William Harrison Dempsey, the Manassa Man Mauler, could stand some editing before it passes into pugilistic, history, and this is also true the records of many of our other great fighters. HAVING SPOKEN A3 above, I hesitate to 'answer a question with the records when one Harry Kellogg, of Saratoga Springs, New York, abruptly asks me: "Just how good was that Stanley Ketchel you're always holding up as a real good fighter, anyway?" It so happens that Ketchel is in the easy memory of a great, many of the ringworms of today. He was killed in 1910, a matter of sixteen years back, and now there are few to whom his name doesn't mean a thing. Tiger Flowers, or Harry Greb however, mean a lot more when you are speaking of middleweights. But if they will ask those who remember back to Ketchel's time, they will be informed that Ketchel met some pretty good men.

That is the only way one can gauge the ability of a fighter by knowing caliber of his opponents. Therefore, I feel that that I may rightly bring forward the record to prove that Ketchel was a real good fighter an Extra real good fighter. He was, indeed, one Of the all-. time greats, perhaps the greatest out-and-out fighter we have had in many years. HE HAD A TOTAL of about sixty-one fights.

He won forty-eight by knockouts. Of these about thirty-six ended inside of ten rounds. He ran up a string of twenty-one consecutive knockouts at a time when he was obscure, unknown, and his opponents were supposed to be about the same general, caliber as himself. There was no "pop-overs" for him in those days, because he amounted to nothing in the pugilistic marts and there was no reason to feed him pop- overs. The pugilistic world at large never heard of him until his knock- out run was broken by his twenty round draw with Joe Thomas, at Marysville, Calif.

IN OTHER WORDS, only thirteen of Ketchel's battles ended other than by him knock- ing his opponent bow-legged. He was twice knocked out himself, once by Billy Papke for the middleweight title, and once by John Arthur Johnston, then heavyweight champion of the world. Ketchel was twice beaten to a de cision by Maurice Thompson in Butte when Ketchel was a beginner, tie drew in twenty rounds with Montana Jack Sullivan, and with one Rudolph Hintz in twenty. Then he drew, as stated, with Joe Thomas. He beat Thomas to a twenty round decision after knocking him out in thirty-two rounds, and got a decision over Papke in twenty.

He fought no-decision battles with Kid Hubert, Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, Frank Klaus and Sam Lang-ford. In the fight with O'Brien the final bell found the Phiiadelphian on the floor as dead as a mackerel for the time being. Papke, Thomas, O'Brien, Mike and Jack Twin Sullivan, Hugo Kelly, Tony Caponi, Willie Lewis, Porky Flynn and Westchester Jim Smith were good fighters at the time they met Ketchel. They all figure in the record of the Michigan Assassin as knocked out. That is why I say Ketchel was a great fighter.

He had to be to beat that krnd. THERE WAS NOTHING fancy about him. He was demonaie in his smashing, tearing method of milling He was a 'madman in the ring, yet withall he had plenty of cunning, and a style that was an his own. He lived a strange, furious, muddled sort of existence during his heydey, and it is problematical how long he have lasted in the natural course of the game had he not be- cut. down by an assassin's bullet at 23.

But Mr. Kellogg tan take it from the book that this was one chap that tradition doesn gild so far as his fighting ability was concerned, for he could fight. And howl i A. U.JIead Refuses to Bar Western Trackmen NEW YORK, March 80. Murray Hulbert, president 1 of the Amateur Athletic Union, has sent an emphatic letter to Z.

G. Clevenger, of Indiana University, refusing to comply with the latter's request that athletic clubs be asked not to enroll Western conference college athletes until after graduation. iThe president of the A. A. U.

pointed out to Clevenger, who is chairman of the athletic directors of i the Western conference, that the lat-ter had admitted his inability to con-trol athletic students under his jurisdiction. He added that many colleges did not share Clevenger's views regarding athletic clubs and that date)! for the A. A. U. championships were fixed with consideration for the College year.

before the titleholder's eyes. Unless Jack's eyesight has been completely ruined by the Kleig lights, it is reasonable to suppose that his attitude of indifference to Rickard's overtures is as phoney as his new paranne nose. Tex virtually admitted yesterday that he was endeavoring to promote a Dempsey-Tunney fight, and Dempsey came back from the coast with a retort that he wasn't interested in boxing Gene, but was just dying to meet Harry "Wills for money or marbles. at the earliest opportunity. "I am not dealing with Rickard and don't care to," said the heavyweight champion of filmland.

With all due respect to veracity, and with Dempsey at a safe distance, it might be mentioned that this is scarcely the whole truth. Any prize fighter who doesn't care to deal with Rickard has taken one too many on the button and is plain balmy. Tunney probably will be built up in public estimation by a bout with young Stribling, if the latter comes to his senses and realizes that he is not worth the $75,000 guarantee which Pa Stribling has been asking for his services. On his showing against Jimmy Slattery recently, Stribling should be a mark for Tunney. Meanwhile, a rumor that Rickard would build a concrete bowl in Long Island City, seating 10,000 spectators, for a Dempsey-Tunney bout, is just just another of those things.

Tex says he won't, and it is easy to see why not. About the most useless piece of property imaginable would be a concrete bowl, capable of seating 120,000 spectators in Long Island City after Dempsey and Tunney had done their stuff. Spring Football Drills Are Started by Bisons LEWISBURG," March, 30. Spring football practice started at Buck-nell University yesterday in charge of Assistant Coach Rhodes Ingerton. Many of last season's gridders and a number of new men, prospective candidates for the eleven next fall, reported for the early workouts.

Intensive --drills in fundamentals will feature thfe practices and an additional benefit will be the conditioning effect the workouts will have on the players. The drills will cease, with the close of school for the spring recess tomorrow, but will commence again when the university opens April 8.
