BISONS TRAIN IN Y. M. C. A. GYMNASIUM-CENTRAL TOSSERS READY FOR BATTLE
BISONS TRAIN IN
LOCAL GYMNASIUM
Spend Day at Y. M. C. A. Lim
bering Up Joints; Pitchers
Are Busy
By "OV" KLOVE
After spending a flay In perfect rest
and having: enjoyed a good night's
•leep in their quarters at Hotel Co
lumbus, eighteen young warriors of
the diamond, representing the mem
bers of the Bisons 1916 team of the
International League, betook them
selves to the Y. M. C. A. gym this
morning for indoor practice.
Much disappointment was freely ex
pressed by members of the team at
the weather, which' so far has pre
vented them from getting in any out
door training, but after spending an
hour in the gym this thought was
easily driven from their minds by Pat
Donovan, the maanger, who insisted
that each man have his try at "stick
ing them over the 'pan' " for a period
of fifteen minutes.
Tyson Has Spwd
Ty Tyson, the new pitcher, showed
up well, but did not cut loose with
any speed, as he wants to loosen his
arm up slowly. Jack Onslow, his
! battery mate, proved his efficiency and
as Ty shot the twisters slowly
■but surely over the pan.
Following the pitching practice the
(boys all took a turn at a little mild
hatting practice, after which they took
-a short run around the indoor track,
and, dressing, returned to their hotel,
where they made one of those "busi
nessmen's lunches" look like a cyclone
had hit it.
Manager Donovan says that after
they get in a week's outdoor practice
they will arrange a series of exhibition
games to be played on (he Island
grounds with the fastest teams that
ran be picked from (the adjoining
•counties and nearby colleges.

Greystocks Win Fast Game
in Battle With Penn Team
Special to the Telegraph
Philadelphia, April 4.—ln their final
tiff before entering the interleave
championship series the Greys, East
ern league pennant winners, hooked
up with Penn, intercollegiate title
holders, in a forty-minute courtesy f-'-
out lasl night and by heavy scoiing
and brilliant team work conquered ihe
collegians by a 49 to 36 score.
The professionals' deeper knowledge
of the game, a better eye for the
basket and bewildering passing proved
too much for the Red and Blue, and
they never had the lead on the East
ern monarchs. Penn played snappy
and fast ball at times and scored sev
eral sensational goals, which delighted
the big crowd of invited guests. But
the Red and Blue lads as a whole were
unable to understand and break up
Greystock's plays once the profes
sionals got working under full pres
sure. Goals came fast at times, many
being rung from near the middle of
the floor. Joe Fogarty led the assault
with eight, while Williamson, of Penn,
followed with six. Sugarman and Wil
son each dropped in five.
John Heydler Qualifies
in Pinehurst Golf Match
Special to the Telegraph
Pinehurst, N". C., April 4. John
Tlevdler, secretary of the National
I,eague, who has been playing from
18 to 36 holes daily at Pinehurst in
preparation for yesterday's qualifying
round of the Xorth and South amateur
golf championship, drew an early
starting hour for the qualifying round
this morning and started out by mak
ing the first two holes in par. Then
rain came on in torrents, but Heydler
is not a golfer with whom the elements
can interfere when he is going right,
and he proceeded with the good work
to the bitter end.
Under the watchful eye of Father 1
i Sheedy he turned the ninth in 41 and
came down the homestretch and to
i the clubhouse door in the same figure, ]
i handln;' in a qualifying card of 82, a
j remarkable score under the conditions \
j and by far the best score that he has
j ever ntade at Plnehlirst.

THE WAR AND WOOL
By Frederic
[Continued from Editorial Page.]
claim that only unprecedented condi
tions saved the sheep Industry from
disaster. Their opponents assert that
the American wool business has be
come a world business, capable of ab
sorbing its share of world production.
Time alone can show. In the mean
while. dealers and growers alike are j
skating over thin Ice, and one of the ;
greatest American industries, repre- j
senting hundreds of millions of dol- j
lars In Investment. Is going through
some of the most stirring times In Its :
history.
Market conditions for the last few |
months, as one dealer put It. were j
enough to turn the trader's hair gray.
Reports of big war orders for uniform j
cloth swept through the business like j
fire through stubble. Owners held j
for fancy prices: mills refused to pay. ■
Spinners who in ordinary years buy |
enough to run their mills for months, !
turned around and bought from day >
to day. Big consignments of Austral- |
ian wools came continually to com- |
plicate matters. The Pacific coast en- ;
tered into the game. The British em- i
bargo alone was enough to keep brok- !
ers awake nights.
The British Government Issued an
order prohibiting the exportation of
wool from its colonial possessions to
I foreign countries. American wools,
with a prospect of Australian compe- ,
titlon removed, jumped accordingly.
But the allied troops needed more i
cloth than English mills could spin. !
An arrangement was reached by which ]
American manufacturers could Import i
through their association, after a cer- ;
tiflcate had been issued providing that
the manufactured cloth did not go to
the Central Empires. While the mat
ter was being settled, rumors ran to
and fro a dozen times a day—the em
bargo was'on, the embargo was off.
Prices swayed up and down with each
fresh report. It took an active man
to follow the market.
Now that the smoke has cleared
away, practically everyone concerned
! can look back on a prosperous vear.
The grower had a combination of high
prices and favorable range conditions
|to thank for prosperity. The dealers
handled large quantities of wool on
a rising market—always a guarantee
of the right sort of balance sheet. The |
same rises took care of most of the
speculators. The mill men reaped j
their harvest in European business, j
The whole wool trade is looking for- !
ward to the coming season with an i
attitude of caution liberally flavored I
with confidence.
CHERRY TREES TO
FURNISH FOODS
Over 10.000 Will Be Set Out
by the Slate to Take Care
of the Birds
Close to 10.000 seedling black cherry
| trees are to be planted this year un
| der the auspices of the State Forestry
| Department as part of the general plan,
| to provide food for insect killing birds
lin the wooded portions of the State. j
| The use of the cherry trees has been '
! adopted Instead of planting grape j
j vines, which were set out on expert- i
i mental tracts in State reserves last j
I year and it is calculated that the trees
| will furnish both timber and food.
Many of the trees will be planted
along roadsides to encourage bird life
in farming districts, some will be plant-
I ed on State reserves and others will be
| given to individuals who have been
j working with the foresters and who will
| permit observations to be made. The
I trees were all raised in the State's
i nurseries. 7.000 in Asaph tract alone.
; To replace them the State nursery su
i perlntendents will plant over three
quarter millions of cherry seeds.
In addition to planting the cherry
seedlings and experimenting with grape
vines the State's forestry men are mak
ing tests with various species of trees
1 which will bear edible fruit and carry
it far into the winter for the birds.
Among others a new sperirs of mul
berry is being experimented with.

If You Have a Secret to Hide,
Keep Away From Majestic
T.eona Lamar. "the girl with a thou
sand eyes," who claims to possess the
sixth sight, is appearing at the Majes
tic theater almost on the heels of a
week's engagement at the Palace the
ater in New York city.
At the performances yesterday the
I young woman, who is scarcely over 19
j years old, answered all sorts of ques
tions, apparently through the me
| dium of thought transmission. She
jtold whether missing relatives would
| return, about the loss of articles, de
scribed various articles and stated in
j answer to a question asked from the
audience that Elmira will eventually
go dry, but not for some time to
j come. When seen in her dressing
room at the Majestic, Miss Lamar
I spoke frankly of her power as though
jit were the most natural thing in the
i world. "My mother," said Allss Lamar
j "also possesses the same talent, but
she has not developed it to the extent
that I have. I first came to realize my
power when 10 years old."
When the conversation drifted to
the European war Miss Lamar made
many interesting observations. "I
predicted the war a year before It
broke out," said Miss Lamar, "at
Buckingham Palace before the King
|of England. I told him that a year
from that time his country would be
thrown in a terrible conflict.
"Which side is going to win?" she!
was asked.
"Neither. There will be no victory.
Both sides are too powerful; both have
too great resources and in the end it
will -be simply the awakening of all
sides that will compel the rulers to a
settlement. The war began without
cause and will end with no great bene
fit."
Miss interesting turn ap
pears at the head of one of the best
vaudeville bills the Majestic has had
this season.

Over 4,000 Years Old
Dallas. Tex., April .—When the

Dallas, a small quantity of wheat that
had been taken from the tomb of one
i of the ancient kings in newly explored

| This wheat was known to be more
than 4,000 years old. The glass con

pearances the wheat is just as sound
as the day It was flailed from the head
In the long ago, when the earth was
Inhabited by a civilization that is now

large.
"I have been told that the grains
would probably germinate If planted,
