State League Tossers Meet In
dependents Saturday Night;
Rote'in Line-up
The Hazleton basketball team, of
the Pennsylvania State League, will
be the opponents of the Harrisburg ■
Independents Saturday night. This is
the only State league team which will
play in Harrisburg this season.
Hazleton is among the in
the State League race, which is very j
close this season. The article of ball
played is about the same as that dis- !
played in the Eastern league. Many I
former stars tempted by the large!
salaries paid, are now in the new i
league, and have brought the game
up to a high standard.
The Independents will have their
regular line-up to oppose the coal
region boys, and hope for a victory.
Rote, who played with Central High
at Lancaster last week, will again play
his regular position, while Ford will
be moved back to his old position at
guard.
Fred Cooper With Trenton
New Life For Big Leaguers
Special to the Tele&rapU
Trenton. March 2.—Fred Cooper,
one of (he brainiest basketball men
in the country, is to lead Trenton's
1916-17 Eastern League team. This
bit of news was uncovered yesterday
by B. C. Kuser, who recently returned
from a fishing trip to the South. Coop
er may even take hold of the club
for the rest of the present season.
The return of Mr. Kuser caused an
upheaval in the ranks of the Tren
ton Club, for in addition to the fact
that Cooper will be secured to handle
the club. It will not be surprising if
Joe Fogartv is resigned, if he
be secured from Greystock.
Another youngster will be given a
trial on the Trenton team, too. This
was announced last night by Mr.
Ivuser after he had seen Billy Lloyd
perform in the Laurel-Greystock Re
serve preliminary game on Monday.
The new owner of the Trenton team
believes that Lloyd is worthy of a good
trial and will very likely have him in
action next Monday night.

HARD TRAINING
WILLARD'S NEED
Champion's Weight Worries ,
Manager; Sparring Partners
Are Too Tame
Special to the Telegraph I
New York, March 2.—After five i
days of training Jess Willard, the !
heavyweight champion of the world,
has decided that he is not getting rid;
of his surplus avoirdupois as rapidly i
as he expected. In fact Willard 1
weighed just about as much yesterday j
as ho did when he first came to town. |
The champion and liis manager, 1
Tom Jones, realized that the course j
of training that Willard has been fol
lowing is not strenuous enough. Wil
lard extended the distance of his road
work and ran around Central Park
until he had covered about eight
miles. In the afternoon when he
went to the Pioneer A. C. for his gym- ■.
nasium work, Jones, the champion's 1
manager, decided that his road work)
had been so hard that the champion j
would have to cut short his work in •
the ring.
He boxed two short rounds with'
Jack Hemple and two shorter ones j
with Walter Monahan. Then Willard i
was tired and willingly hurried to his
room to be rubbed down.
Chairman Fred WencK, of the State)
Athletic Commission, watched Wil- |
lard box and did not hesitate to say
that the champion was far from being!
in the best condition.
The chairman of the Boxing Com
mission ventured the opinion that Wii
lard needs some rough and ready
sparring partners, as his exhibitions
with Heniple and Monohan are too
tame.

Special to the Telegraph
Boston, March 2.—The Boston
American League baseball club an
nounced yesterday that all American
and National League clubs had waiv
ed claim to Forest Cady and Chester
Thomas, catchers, and to Kay Collins
and Joe Wood, pitchers.
Ray Collins was let out by the Red
Sox because of trouble over his con
tract, the "southpaw" objecting to
having his salary cut. Collins two
years ago signed a three-year contract
calling for $7,500 per season.
Wood has been having trouble with
his arm for a couple of years. Last
season he made a good start, but his
arm again went back on him and he
did not get into the world series.
Recently Wood has been working out
with Tom Seaton in the gymnasium of
Columbia University. He believes
that his arm will be strong enough for
regular work this year, but with an
excellent pitching staff the manage
ment of the Red Sox did not believe
that Joe was worth the risk of a
large salary. Wood's stipend was said
to have been SIO,OOO per year.
HVMMKLSTOWX TEAMS WIN*
The Hummelstown quintet last
night defeated the Pennsy Yard Board
five, score SO to 21. The Monarchs
defeated the Hamilton Grammar
school live of Ilarrisburg, score 26 to
17. Both games were fast.
WELI^iSg^GORNER
The only hope for Harrisburg get
ting a New York League franchise is
to buy out one of the present fran
chises, or make a strenuous move to
have Heading join, and have a ten
team circuit. The option of A 1 W.
Lawson on Lauer's Park at Heading
expired yesterday. Local promoters
are awaiting word from Jimmy Sheck
ard as to prospects.
The sale of the Albany franchise
to local interests has not yet been
approved officially. An opinion pre
vails that it is a ruse to make Har
risburg come across with a higher
price than was offered. The Albany
franchise is not worth $4,000. Should
Harrisburg get the franchise it would
be necessary to sign up an entirely
new team. The players under con
tract with Albany are not worth
more than $1,500.
The Motive Power Athletic Associn
tion of the Pennsylvania Railroad is
showing great activity. Mike Friel
who knows how to develop ball play
ers has a squad that means the
strongest team that lias ever repre
sented Harrisburg in P. R. R. System
series. The players who are likely to
shine this season have been working
with the railroad company for seven
mouths and will be eligible for a place
on the team.
The Board of Governors of the
Motor Club of llarrlsburg will meet
to-morrow nisht. There will be some
thing doing according to reports. A

number of questions are on the cal

Myton the secretary, expects to take
up plans for the Spring and summer
events.
The Central Pennsylvania League
is not likely to get a start this sea
son. Middletown was a iinancial loser
last season, and it is not certain what
the association in that place will do
for baseball. There will be a team,
but it is the general opinion that in
dependent baseball will prove mora
profitable.
Steelton and New Cumberland are
the only towns that would prove a
success flnancl&Uy. Htglispire is out
of the league game for some time to
come. Lebanon is after an Atlantic
League franchise and Hersliey lost
money last season, and will also play
independent baseball.
The local amateur teams are get
ting busy. The Galahads, Belmont A.

teams met last night and discussed
plans for the seasop. Officers were
elected and players will be signed up
for an early start.
