Welsh's downfall came at the end of a series of rushes by Leonard that drove him from corner to corner. The champion had taken a severe beating during the early rounds and the punishment had begun to tell when the gong for tile ninth round sounded. Leonard scored ills fifth consecutive knockout in as many weeks, Referee McPartland stopping the bout when Welsh was hanging helplessly on the ropes in Leonard's corner. It was a technical knockout and will be cred ited as such. First to Win Title The new world's champion is the first New Yorker to win this title, as Leonard was born in this city on April 7, 1896. Jack McAuliffe, who was champion in the early nineties, was born in Brooklyn and it was not for many years afterward that the consolidation of adjoining boroughs Included Brooklyn in Greater New York. Welsh won the title from Willie Ritchie of California on a referee's decision at London, England, in July, 1914, so that the deposed champion has held the title almost three years. Last night Leonard, who scaled the lightweight limit of 133 pounds, was in physical condition when he entered the ring. Welsh also was in tine shape and weighed 3 3 i pounds more than his opponent. From the first tap of the gong Leonard was the ag gressor and, whole Welsh cleverly blocked many of Leonard's punches, the younger man scored heavily with swinging lefts and hard righthand smashes to the stomach and ribs. Leonard, fresh as the moment he had entered the ring, jumped for ward and met the champion as he was leaving his corner and delivered a shower of lefts and rights to the face and head. Welsh, vainly trying to ward off the blows, worked his way into Leonard's corner, where Leonard succeeded in reaching him with a smashing right on the Jaw. Welsh fell on one knee and hugged the ropes. His strength gone, he strove weakly to strike a lighting pose. As he left the ropes Leonard landed and Welsh hit the floor. He struggled to his feet twice more, but each time he was met by Leonard's right to the face and head and again he fell to the floor. Champion Taken Count ' The champion took the count of nine before he arose from the last knockdown. He tried to stand, but fell across the ropes. It was only a question of moments when he would have fallen and been counted out. At this point Referee McPartland leaped between the two men, and, pushing STATE SHOOT TO BE ATTRACTIVE; PROGRAM READY The twenty-seventh annual meet ing and election of officers of the Pennsylvania State Sportsmen's As sociation and the twenty-sixth trap shooting championship of the Key stone State will take place at the Bradford Gun Club, Bradford, Pa., on June 5, 6 and 1. The Bradford Gun Club is one of the most enterprising gun clubs in the state, has one of the finest gun clubs properties in the United States, and is determined to give Pennsylva nia the greatest carnival of trap shooting in its history. Besides the money and trophies, the Interstate Association is contributing the Brad ford Gun Club has purchased fifty four prizes, ranging in value from $5 to SSO, and these will be given in the events on the regular pro gram. In the special events the Bradford Gun Club will giv& $250 in cash and SSO in trophies, so that in the neigh borhood of $1,500 in trophies and purses will be awarded. Interstate Events The program of the Interstate As sociation calls for two events at 175 targets each and the Pennsylvania state championship event at 100 tar gets. Besides the program, there are the events of day, a merchandise shoot, event for wo men, doubles event, and the two, three and four-men team champion ship events. The Lindsay trophy goes to the two-man winners, the Reading trophy to the three-man champions and the Harrisburg tro phy to the four-man team winners. The winner of the doubles event is awarded the Wolstencraft trophy. The prizes will be awarded so as to reach the greatest number of shooters. In the events on the reg ular program there will be thirty of the fifty-four trophies valued at $5 each. Merchants of Bradford have contributed many prizes for the mer chandise shoot, but on the whole the Bradford Club purchased most of the prizes. They have refrained from asking for contributions or for advertising in the program, devot ing the book to the history of the shoot. Former Champions In the thirty-five years the indi vidual championship has been con "CONTOUR"anew ARROW FORM-FIT COLLAR CIPITT,HABOPY ty CO.tnc-.^Wil Hers Leonard away, carried the defeated champion to his corner. A score of men occupying ringside seats Jumped into the ring and, lifting the new champion to their shoulders, carried him in triumphal procession around the hall. While the crowd was cheering itself hoarse, Welsh sat in a daze in his corner. When he had recovered some what and was told by his handlers of his defeat he refused to believe them and fought fiercely to return to the center of the ring. Leonard's Fight It was Leonard's tight throughout. He took the offensive in the first round, and held it until the end. There was never a moment when he was in danger and although the champion fought valiantly and succeeded in l;#iding many blows, they appeared to have little effect. AVelsh seemed to have lost his judgment of distance, for he missed repeatedly.' From the first gong Leonard tore into the champion with ruthless per sistency. He rained lefts and rights to the face and head at will. Welsh, disconcerted by Ills opponent's tactics, seemed worried when the round ended. Leonard, the new world's champion lightweight, will not "wait for con scription," but will enlist in the Unit ed States army after a six-round bout in Philadelphia next Monday night, his manager, Billy Gibson, announced after the fight. As soon as Leonard was able to get an opportunity to speak, he said: "1 am very glad that at last I have won the championship. I felt confi dent that I was Welsh's master and now that I've proved it I am going to enlist. I am not going to wait for conscription for as soon as I get through with my engagement to box Joe Welsh at Philadelphia next Mon day night I will voluntarily enlist in the United States army and do my bit. Just at this time it is doubly gratify ing to me that I have brought the championship back to the United States and if I am spared I hope to b ready to defend it against all comers for a fairly long period." Kllbnnc Challenges Winner Johnny Kilbane of Cleveland, rec ognized world's featherweight cham pion, before the bout began challenged the winner. As soon as Leonard had won, Matt Hinkel of Cleveland, a box ing promoter, who was at the ring side, immediately offered a purse of $25, for a 12- or 15-round bout be tween Leonard and Kilbane. to take place at Canton, Ohio., on July 4, and arranged for all parties concerned to meet him here this afternoon. Gib son, on behalf of Leonard, said that if he could arrange for such a bout he would gladly do so and the men may be signed up to-day. tested only one shooter —Fred Cole man—has won the title twice. The greatest champion Is Allen Hell, of Allentown, Pa. He is also the doubles champion. Heil jroke 100 straight in winning the individual title lasti year. He will defend the champion ship at Bradford. More than 200 trapshooters are expected to be in the competition.

I HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH &'<&ant]arulJiice In NO MAN'S LANI> Far to the right the big guns tell their story; Far to the left the shrapnel hurtles by, Singing again ts song of death and glory, Where, in between, the marching ghosts drift by; You—in the lines—still watch the vivid token Flashed through the dusk in all its crimson gleam. But here, through the night, we hold our sleep unbroken, Dreamers too worn to dream. Here is "the peace that passeth understanding," The peace that we waited through the years; No more grim captains of the strife commanding Worn hosts to charge the battlement of tears; No more the heartache of a vain en.deacor, Into the storm of bitter battle drawn; Deep falls the night where winds come whispering, "Never— Never another dawn." Never another dawn, where, to eyes weary. The gray light steals upon the sleeper's rest; | The tramp of feet, the call of bugle dreary. To end the dream or stir the dreamer's breast; Never another dawn with strife's To-morrow, The Day is done—the last lone couch awaits— Here, at the Road's End of all strife and sorrow, Safe through the twilight gates. WE WONDER— On any warm spring or summer afternoon, around 3 to 3.30 o'clock, we wonder how Hans Wagner feels about it all. Whether he doesn't still im agine himself leaving the bench for the plate with two on and two needed to win—whether he doesn't still imagine himself diving or floundering head long for a sharp smash toward left with the tieing run, shooting for home. The habit of twenty years isn't easily broken, especially when that habit is fringed about with the lusty cheers of admiring thousands. If Hans had a million and he could buy back the old days with half this amount, we wonder whether or not ho would consider the bargain cheap at thfe price. Baseball meant more to Wagner than any man we have ever known. To know definitely that his time is over and that his last base hit has been recorded must have cut in deeply, deeper than ever between 3 and 5 p. m. on some warm and woolly afternoon. TIGER PENNANTS Eight years ago Hugh Jennings won. his third successive pennant. Since then Mughey has been scrambling up the hillside in vain drives. Weak pitching has more than offset the strong attack he has built around Ty Cobb each year, and now it begins to look as if Hughey was again to be halted by the same weakness. The Tigers had a first-class chance to win in 1915, when, tfrey bagged 100 victories —usually a pennant margin. Through that season they gave the Red Sox a great battle to the last few strides of the stretch. A hundred victories would have won a pennant almost any other year. After this close llnish the Tigers looked to have all the best of it when the Red Sox turned Tris Speaker over to Cleveland. If Boston, with Speaker, could only beat Detroit three games, Boston, without Speaker, should be fairly easy prey. The result looked to be a pipe last September, when the Red Sox, In addition to Speaker's absence, lost Jack Barry when they were but one game in front, with a long road trip ahead. , There was still nothing to it. The Red Sox won with greater ease on the road minus Speaker and Barry than they had won at home with these two stars in harness. Considering these two campaigns, the odds against Tiger success are now too bulky to be considered, unless some sudden change arrives. •When all three were at their best," writes S. R. 1., "who was the lead ing putter—Travis, Travers or Ouimet?" When all three were at their best it is almost impossible to imagine anything better. Hence "a tie" would be the fairest answer. The only argument would be as to which was at his best oftenest Along this line we should say that Travis had fewer poor putting days than anv other golfer known. * USE OF CORN AS BREADSTUFF Meal Lends Itself Readily With Wheat in Making Light Bread Washington, D. C. ,May 29.—1t may not be generally known to the housewife that cornmeal lends Itself to the making of "light" bread in combination with wheat flour. It can not, of course, replace wheat flour entirely, but may be used in any proportion up to 25 per cent, of the total flour required and still produce an attractive loaf of bread. Although its volue may be some what smaller and its texture some what poorer than if made from all wheat flour, such a loaf will be light and spongy, with a rich brown crust, wholesome and very palatable. Two methods for wheat and corn bread have been formulated and tested by H. L. Wessling, assistant chemist in the Bureau of Chem istry, United States Department of Agriculture. According to the one method the raw meal Is employed directly in preparing the dough and no extra time or labor is required in making the bread this way. Accord ing to the second method the meal is partially cooked before introduc ing it into the dough. While this does entail a slight amount of addi tional time anci labor, the result is a loaf of better quality which well repays the extra effort expended. Wheat and Corn Broad No. 1 (Enough ftor Four Loaves). Two and one-quarter or two and one-quarter scant quarts sifted bread flour. Three-fourths pound or two and two-third cupfuls corn meal. Two cakes of compressed yeast. Three level tablespoonfuls of sugar. One and one-fourth level table spoonfuls of salt. About one quart of liquid (water, milk or equal parts of milk and water). Three level tablespoonfuls of shortening If desired. /If milk is used it should be scald ed and then cooled until lukewarm. Less yeast -may be used, but more time for rising w;ill then be required. Make a sponge with two pounds of white flour, the yeast, fealt, sugar and the lukewarm liquid. Cover and set in a moderately warm place to rise, where it will be free from drafts and where the temperature will be between 80 degrees and 88 degrees F. When the sponge has become very light, which should occur within two hours, beat it up thoroughly, add the softening short ening, if this is to be used, and gradually work in the remainder of the wehat flour which has been sift ed with the corn meal. Knead the mixture until a smooth an delastlc dough has been formed which is fairly soft, but not sticky. If the dough Is too stiff or too soft, add a little more water or flour as requir ed, kneading well after each addi tion. Cover and set back to rise again until double in volume, which villi require from one to two hours. Knead lightly, divide into three or four approximately equal portions, reserving a small ball of dough for an "indicator." Place this ball of dough in a small jelly glass having straight sides, which has been slight ly warmed. Note the volume of dough In the tumbler and mark the glass at twice this volume. Mold the loaves and place in slightly warmed and greased pans. Place these, together with the glass containing the "Indicator," in the same warm place and let rlaeuntil the "indicator" shows that it has Just doubled in volume. Then place the loaves in theoven, which should be at a tfood steady heat (400 de grees to 425 degrees, F.) and bake 4 5 to 50 minutes. Wheat and Corn Bread No. 2 (Same proportions as for No. 1, except the liquid). Put 2 2-3 cupfuls (3-4 pound) of corn meal into a. double boiler or a \ essel which can be placed over an other one containing boiling water. Add to the meal 3% cupfuls of cold w'ater; mix thoroughly and bring to the boiling: point, stirring frequently. Allow the meal to steam for at least 10 minutes, then cool it until luke warm. To this scalded and cooled meal add the salt, sugar, one cupful of flour and the yeast rubbed smooth and mixed with two cupfuls of luke warm water. Mix thoroughly, cover and set in a moderately warm place to rise as directed in method No. 1. When this batter (or sponge) has become very light, which will re quire abouttwo hours, beat it thor oughly, add the softened shortening, if it is to be used, and the remainder of the white flour (two pounds or quarts). Knead thoroughly until it is smooth and elastic. Shrould the dough be either too stiff or too soft add water or flour, a little at a time, working it in thoroughly, until the dough is of the proper consist ency. Cover and set back in its warm place to rise until double in bulk. Then mold into loaves and finish as directed under method No. 1. Shoot at New Cumberland; Many Prizes For Winners Plans were completed to-day for a big shoot at New Cumberland to morrow. The events start at 10 o'clock in the morning and will con tinue all day.

Johnson is the human information bureau. He not only announces the name of every player as he comes to to hat during the game, but he also gives all other kinds of information, such as the number of balls and strikes and the number of outs in a voice loud enough to be heard in all parts of the grounds. Johnson also has proved to be something besides an automatic scoreboard and an nouncer, for his work has given complete satisfaction and it is likely that he wil be the first of tho minor league umpires to rise into the major leagues at the close of this season." will pitch for Manager Duncan's' team, while Dearolf will catch. Gil day will likely endeavor to do the iron-man stunt for Dauphin. Ducky Rhoads will catch. At least one other Dauphin team will break into the victory column in the Millersburg-Halifax games.
