Lancaster Fighter "Will Meet
Maguire at Mehring's Show
Tomorrow Night
Johnnie Wolgast. the Cadillac, Mich.,
and Lancaster boxer, a brother of
Ad Wolgast, ex-featherweight cham
pion of the world, is fast climbing up
the tistie ladder and at present is
swamped with "war orders." Wolgast
will appear in this city to-morrow
night at Billy Mehring's show in the
Chestnut Street Auditorium. His op
ponent will be Frankie Maguire, the
Williamsport lighter, who is a favorite
here.
Wolgast made a hit with the local
fans several weeks ago at his tirst ap
pearance here in a bout with Kid Al
bert, of Frederick, Md., the lighting
Wop. Wolgast won the bout in such
a decisive manner he was booked for
a return match with Maguire. He was
to have met Johnnie Gill last week
in York, but owing to a slightly dis
located shoulder he was forced to call
the bout oft.
Wolgast Busy Scrapper
Wolgast is haltered in the stable of
Frankie at Lancaster, who su
pervises Hiis training and handles the
managerial reins. The Lancaster pro
moter-manager is being flooded with
requests for his boy and Wolgast's next
fight after his bout here will be in
Lancaster with Battling Larry Ryan,
of New York, on March 26. He has
also been matched with Johnnie Gill
at a a later date. Wolgast made such
a hit with the Philadelphia fans sev
eral weeks ago that several Quaker
City promoters are bartering for his
services.
Promoter Mehring has arranged an
exceptionally strong show for to-mor
row night with Wolgast and Maguire
in the final bout. Pete Howell and
Young Sharkey in the semiwindup and
two strong preliminary bouts.

Copyright, 1917. by the Tribune Association (New York Tribune)
They have awarded 110 fluttering pennants to Ohio soil in the 45-year span
of Major League play, but there is one mark that Ohio holds for all eternity.
Complete returns to the answer developed this season when Christy Mathew
son started south as a manager—not a pitcher.
This may be taken to indicate that Matty lias about completed his task.
And at the end of his long road —a wonderful journey of sixteen years—he
still stands 256 games back of Cy Young, the Paoli Phenom. '
Cy was a Buckeye product, and his mark of 819 games and 508 victories
will stand until this narrow world has gone up in pale blue smoke. For if
Christy Mathewson. with all his care and cunning and endurance, could only
come within 256 games of Young's mark—you can ligure for yourself what
chance any one else carries.
Par rtoyoiul All Competition
The wonder of Cy's mighty mark is the vast span it extends beyond :J1 com
petition.
In affairs where the best are in battle over a long whirl of years, the result
is usually close.
But this wasn't even a race. A margin of 256 games means at least six
years' work—at an average of forty-eight games a year—which is beyond
the average. As great as Matty was, Cy's list of victories was almost as long
as Matty's total starts. Matty lias worked in 563 gam,es to date. Young won
508 games. Matty finished 136 victories back of Cy, despite a record that was
the wonder of the nation for sixteen years.
Johnson's Chance
The wonder of Old Cy can be shown in comparing his record with Walter
Johnson's chance.
Johnson has been working like a horse for ten years. In that space he has
run up 41S games. Yet to equal Young's mark he must still'work in over 400
ball games—or put in another ten years at the pace he is holding now. And
Johnson would be an ideal choice for a long "distance mark. He began his
major league work when he was but twenty years old. He is big and strong
with the easiest pitching motion in the game. Everything in the world was in
his favor. Yet, although classed as a veteran to-day, he still tinds 401 games
between his present mark and Cy's record.
Johnson is now just thirty years old. It is not beyond all reason that he
may beat Young's mark—but you know where the betting would be if any
one cared to start an argument.
'Their First Six Years
A citizen with an inquisitive turn of mind desires to know how the records
of Matty and Alexander compare for their tirst six years—Alex having com
pleted only this many seasons.
Matty, his tirst six seasons, won 159 games and lost eighty-two. Alexander
to date has won 160 games and lost 75.
In his tirst two seasons, however. Matty was working with a tail-end team
in a state of almost complete dilapidation, where no one but a hero could win.
After McGraw took charge Matty did much better work. His record for
the tirst six seasons under John J. was 179 victories and seventy-nine defeats.
Matty's pitching mark for sixteen years Is .661. Alexander's for six years is
.681. The Philly premier has held his own to date, with a shade to spare in a
percentage way. but whether he can. go ten more years around the .660 is an
other guess. Alexander is also thirty years old, the same age that Walter
Johnson, with over 400 games to his credit already, is sure to beat this mark
Big Corral before the Nebraskan finally broke in.
In thinking of Iron Men one first turns to Joe McGinity and Ed Walsh.
Yet neither worked in half as many as Cy Young—and nothing like as many
games as Mathewson. They were Iron Men for several years, but the rust
arrived long before they had been over the long trail.
_ Only five slabmen so far have worked in over 500 games. They are Cy
Young( Christy Mathewson, Yic Willis, Jack Powell and Red Ehret. Walter
Johnson, with over 400 games to his credit already, is sure to beat this mark
and he will undoubtedly tinish second to Young when the total count is in.
Johnson should be good for at least 275 more contests —enough to move him
up around the 700-gaine crest. Alexander must work 217 more games to beat
the 500 mark—and as this means only five more years, he, too, should take his
place with the long-distance mandarins of the mound.
STATE'S FORESTS
HIT HARD BY FIRE
Figures Compiled Show That
the Seourge of the Forest
Is Still Here
The report covering the spring and |
fall forest tire seasons of 1916, issued I
to-day by the Pennsylvania Depart- j
ment of Forestry, shows that while al
most as many forest tires burned in !
Pennsylvania in 1916 as in 1915, the,
areas burned over was less than half
that of 1915, and the timber loss was,
only a trifle over one-fourth as large.
In 1915, 1,101 forest fires burned over
336,635 acres, with a resulting timber'
loss of $55#,700; in 1916, 1,013 fires
burned 154,752 acres, and the tiijiber
loss was only $236,200. Less than i
three per cent, of the area in tlie
State forests was burned over in 1916.
The officers of the hew Bureau of!
Forest Protection do not claim sole J
credit lor this remarkable showing, i
They say that it was due to a com
bination of favorable weather condi- {
tions, better fire warden service and j
awakening public sentiment against I
forest fires. The fact that almost the
same number of fires as burned In j
1915 covered ttfty per cent, less forest
land does show, however, that the re
>rsanization of the fire warden system
was the largest single factor in cutting j
down the loss.
As usual, railroads and campers;
head the list of causes, with 270 and {
182 fires respectively to their dis-■:
credit. Brush burning on dry days'
caused fifty-five tires; ninety-five were!
of incendiary origin; carelessly con-1
ducted lumbering operations caused
forty-four; ten were caused by light- i
ning, and forty-five were caused by j
miscellaneous agencies, such as chil-1
dren playing with matches. The,
causes of 312 fires are unknown.
As a further commentary on the
efficiency of the fire warden system, it!
is noted that 103 fires burned less than |
one acre each, and 765 were extin-'
guished before they covered a liundred
acres. Over half of the damage was i
done by twenty-eight iires of over 1,-1
000 acres each, which burned a total
of 80,000 acres in sixteen counties, i
The largest of these fires occurred ii
Blair, Cameron. Clearfield, Hunting-!
don, Luzerne and Potter counties, j
Blair. Luzerne and Potter are tied for f
the doubtful honor of being first on 1
this list, each paving had a lire of over I
10.000 acres.
Xo fires were reported from Alle-!
Beaver, Delaware. Erie, Greene, j
Lawrence, Montour, Philadelphia or'
Washington counties, but small tires t
burned even in such agricultural coutr- j
ties as Bucks, Chester and Montgom- 1
ery. Blair county suffered most se-1
verely, with 18.000 acres burned. Al- j
most 16.000 acres went up in smoke!
in Luzerne county, and 13,400 acres j
were burned in Potter county. The;
heaviest money loss occurred in Clin- j
ton county, where 6,700 acres, valued
at almost $25,000, were burned over.
As indicating how variable weather
conditions affect the forest lire seasons |
it is interesting to note that fires oc-1
curred in every month of 1916 except
February. Almost fifty per cent, of thei
fires burned between August 1 and De- |
cember 15, which is very unusual. In i
1915 nearly ninety per cent, of the'
fires occurred before June 1. Prac-1
tically half of the fall fires in 1916 !
occurred during one very dry week in
the early part of December.
Further changes are being made i
from time to time in the list of fire i
wardens. The State will be thoroughly i
covered township by township, and j
wardens will be appointed wherever
there is enough forest area to justify
appointment. The greater part of the
State has been covered in this way al
ready. and over 1.500 wardens are
now on the roster, In addition to the
force of foresters and gangers.

High is preparing Jo wind up her baa- i
ketball season with two important tri
umphs. Steelton will oppose the Blue 1

and his colleagues intend to stago a
strong conie-Jiack, but the down-river j
bunch are In tine form.
Central llad OfT Season
Central has had more or less of an
off season, this being partly due to the
loss of two of the regulars for-a num
ber of games. By winning from Steel
ton High Friday and by , defeating I
Tech next week Central would tie for I
local scholastic supremacy and would j
probably play post-season games.
An exceptionally large student dele
gation from both scjiools is expected

SHANNON TOY FOR
. JOHNNIE KILBANE
Champion Allows Califomian
to Stay the Limit; Hangs on
to Save Self
Philadelphia, Pa., March 20.
Johnny Kilbane, featherweight cham
pion, had no trouble beating Eddie
Shannon, of California, in the windup
at the Olympia last night. The bout
was tame and uninteresting, as it was
evident after the secfind round that
Shannon was only a play toy for Kil
bane, who could handle him as he
pleased, and he did not please to be
rough with him. The first two rounds
were occupied by Kilbane in sizing
Shannon up. Johnny fiddled and
feinted Eddie in the most bewildering
way, the Califomian evidently being
afraid to lead or take any chances.
\\ hen Kilbane would lead, Shannon
would grab him and hold on like grim
death. In the third round Kilbane had
solved Shannon's style, and he walked
over to the visitor, and sending a hard
right to Eddie's jaw. he dropped the
latter like a log. Shannon took the
count, and when he got up, Kilbane
went after him. Then Shannon grab
bed Kilbane and held him tight. A
bit of wrestling followed, in which Kil
bane, in trying to shake Shannon loose,
threw him to the mat. In the next
round Kilbane staggered Shannon to
his knees with a right-hander to the
side of the head.
Then Johnny evidently finding that
, Shannon was in the ring to try and
stay the six rounds took things easv
and he merely feinted and fooled
around with Shannon for the balance
of the contest. In the latter part of
the fourth round, when Shannon found
that Kilbane was not trying to hurt
I him. he began leading and landed two
or three body punches with his right
hand, at which Kilbane laughed heart
ily, as there was little steam in them.
1 In the tifth and sixth rounds it was
1 about the same thing. Kilbane was
| intent on getting an early train out
| of ,the city, and lie was paying more
I attention to the time he would have
. to get through than to anything that
| might take place In the ring. He
would laugh at Shannon's clumsy at
tempts to lead, and then would get In
close and locking Eddie up would
push his head away with one hand
while pretending to hit him with the
other. Shannon got in several blows
to the body, but lie spent the most of
his time in clinching with his oppon
ent.
In the preliminary bouts. Bobby
Reynolds beat Patsey Broderick. A 1
Fox had the better of A 1 Wagner: Billv
Mannin beat Jimmy Briggs and Billy
Hines had the better x>f Battling Mur
ray. over whom he had a big advant
age in weight.
Kilbane boxed Tim Droney of Lan
caster at York several weeks ago.
It was announced yesterday that Ilia
second game between Central and Tech
will be played on the Chestnut Street
Auditorium floor on Thursday night,
March 29. The contest was to have
been played on the Armory iloor, the
home cage of the Technical live, but
owing to the large attendance the up
town floor waitlil not be lurge enough.
The Tech luds were rather reluctant
to transfer the contest, but at lust
gave their consent. The game was
originally scheduled to take place on
March 30, but the Iloor could not be
secured for that night.
The work of the Blue and Gray
co-icd team has been of especial merit
this season, it being one of the best
ever witnessed by the Central girls.
Practically every game has been won
and representative teams have been
met from the best lilkli schools and
seminaries in the state. This gives
the Forster street sirls a logical claim
to the state championship, on an equal
basis with the strong Hassett co-ed five
of this city.
