START WEDNESDAY
Six Clubs Ready For Opening
Contests; Round-up Session
in Reading Today
The round-up session of the Penn
sylvania State League was held at
Reading this afternoon. Harrisburg
■was represented by Manager George
Cocklll and Leo Groome the owner of
the local franchise. President Wil
liam R. Douglass went to Reading this
morning to attend a special ses
sion of the schedule committee.
Failure to get grounds in condi
tion and the necessary backing at
Altoona and Johnstown, wlfl result
In dropping these two towns. For
the present the league will start with
alx clubs—Harrisburg, York, Lancas
ter, Lebanon, Reading and Allen
town. A new schedule will be ap
proved today.
The contract for grounds at Rlt
tcrsville, near Allentown were closed
yesterday and work started on the
erection of grandstand and bleachers, j
This will necessitate the playing of
Allentown on the ground for two
■weeks. Other towns are in good
shape and according to reports there
will be old-time celebrations in every
city on Wednesday. May 10.
Five cities, each with enclosed
grounds will make application for ad
mission. One of the cities is Coates
ville where grounds are in shape and
s team ready to start the season. |
President Douglass, however, would
like to show baseball fans high class
sport and for this reason two more
towns will not be added until later.
It is understood that conditions will
lavor a change of the circuit later
on.

WELSH HAS WORST
OF FAST BATTLE
Williamsport Roy Puts R All
Over Lightweight Champion;
Other Routs Pleasing
Frankie McGuire of Williamsport,
practically an obscure boy In the
lightweight class last night at Chest
nut street auditorium, put it all over
Freddie Welsh, the champion. Mc-
Gwire lacked the steam with his
punches at times. His work was
highly creditable considering that he
has not had any training from men
who know real fighters.
Welsh was on the defensive most of
the time. The Williamsport lad used
an \jpper cut frequently and it wor
ried the Englishman. Stiff Jabs on
the face by McGuire kept Welsh busy
using his covering up tactics, and his
famous pose with one hand over the
face and the other ready to ward off
the blows. The younugster forced the
fighting.
McGuire lost his head several times
when he used the open rope tactics,
and had Welsh been faster there
might have been another story, how
ever, the glory, according to the gen
eral opinion last night went to Mc-
Guire and Welsh was given a further
advance toward the has been class.
Welsh Plays For Stomach
In the first round WeUh played for
his opponent's stomach, but McGuire
was cautious. Honors were even. The
second found the Williamsport boy
rushing the champion and landing
frequent blows on Welsh's face and
head. It was McGuire's round. The
third was also the latter's round be
cause the youngster did all the fight
ing. The. fourth was even in honors,
and the fifth slightly in favor of Mc-
Guire. The latter was strong in the
final mix-up. Welsh weighed in at
141 pounds and McGuire 138 pounds.
The fight attracted a large crowd,
and was the most expensive show
ever put on in Harrisburg. The pro
moters, according to reporis will have
no profits. They were anxious to give
local patrons an exhibition with a
real champion, and this proved suc
cessful.
The other houts on Ihe hill were
fast and Interesting. Frankie Erne,
the former Harrisburg boy, now a
physical director at Lancaster was
badly punished by A 1 Murphy of
Bcranton. Charley Collins of Colum
bia and Jule Rltchey of Lancaster,
went six rounds to a draw in a bout
that was somewhat disappointing.
The sen"i-windup between Johnny
Gill of York and Jimmy Conway of
Scranton was a good match. Gill
had the best of the battle in four
round?. Conway was a heavier boy
and knew the game. One round was
even. In the opening bout Kid Smith
of Columbia went after Ken Rotten
house of Lancaster with fierce blows
and put the latter out In two minutes.
It was a good fight while it lasted.
Wesley Bricker Signs Up
With Lew Ritter at York
Wesley Bricker. the elongated first
baseman of the Dauphin club of the
Dauphin-Perry League, who also
played with the Rlacksmith team of
the Lucknow Shop League, has been
signed up hy the York team of the
Pennsylvania State league. He played
in the game this afternoon with the
| Bucknell nine.
Bricker, who is 20 years of age. Is a
1 native of Dauphin. Like many other
lads, he got his training on back lots.
Last year he ranked high among the
j Dauphin-Perry sluggers and was reck
oned one of the best first sackers in
' the league. He Is dependable in
j pinches and stabs 'em around first iike

Windowbox Movement
Enthusiastically
Three more squares up town, this
time in Third street, have been added
to the porch and window box cam
paign now being conducted by the
Telegraph. Second street figured ex
tensively in the news yesterday. To
day the Cottage Ridge section of Third
street comes to the fore.
Mrs. H. Lindley Hosford, of 2000
North Third street, has volunteered
to attempt the work of encouraging
the movement between Peffer and
Maclay streets, while Mrs. E. W. Case,
of 1932 North Third street, will look
after that portion lying between Peffer
and Muench streets. Most of these
houses are already decorated with
vines and plants to some extent and a
general treatment of porch and win
dow boxes would add wonderfully to
the appearance of the streets during
the summer months.
Mrs. G. W. Coppersmith, of 1702
North Third street, will undertake the
work between Hamilton and Kelker
st reets.
All over the city the flower move

WELLY'S kCORNER
Frankie McGuire, the Williamsport
boy, met his first champion last night,
and came out of the battle with hon
ors. Those who have studied the
lighting game for a long time are of
the opinion that McGuire should have
the services of a physical instructor,
who will teach him how to gain more
strength. McGuire appears to be
lacking in steam back of his punches.
Manager William J. Mehrlng. Jr.,
of the Keystone Sporting Club made
good his promise In giving Harris
burg a battle with a real onampion.
If reports are true last night's crowd
did not cover expenses.
Harrisburg's next boxing show will
be offered by the West End Republi
can Club. The committee In charge
promises 36 rounds of hard fighting at
Chestnut street auditorium next Mon
day night. The wlndup, a 10-round
contest between Jackie Clark of Al
lentown and Eddie Revolre of Phila
delphia Is attracting attention all over
the State. Clark won over Joe Bor
rell at Reading. He is a strong con
tender for middleweight honors.
Interest shown at the various uni
versities In football is taken as an
Indication that the coming season will
offer rare sport, in gridiron battles.
Thus far in the call for candidates
there have been no disappointments.
Large squads are working at Penn,
Princeton, Harvard and Yale.
News from the meeting of the
Pennsylvania State league at Reading
today will be awaited with much in
terest by local fans. As intimated
several weeks ago the season will
start with six clubs. This will be
satisfactory to fans providing the
game is up to the standard. Reports
from the various cities show a num
ber of promising youngsters at work.
The players who are In the game for
improvement, according to experi
enced fans, furnish Interesting sport.
President Douglass of the State
League Is of the opinion that the
players in his organization will show
some speed.
