Sullivan; Veteran Ring Leader New York, Feb. 23.—8i11y Madden, at one time manager of John L Sul livan and of other noted pugilists, is dead. Madden succumbed to an at tack of acute indigestion at the White Plains Hospital Thursday night. Madden was 65 years old, having been born in Marylebone, England, December 10, 1852. His parents j brought him to America when he was still an infant. He took up bare knuckle fighting at an early age and achieved considerable skill, but I it was not until he began to manage boxers that lie became well known. It was Madden who discovered and developed John L Sullivan. He pi loted the "Boston Strong Boy" into the championship and he held the reins for some time afterward. He I also managed Charley Mitchell, Jake Kilrain, Jack Dempsey, Jack Mc- AulifTe, Peter Maher and Tommy Ryan. Gus Ruhlin, known as the "Akron Giant," was another one of Madden's discoveries. It was through Madden's shrewd coaching that Ruh lin managed to obtain a draw with Jim Jeffries at the end of twenty hard fought rounds. Had Quit Ring Game Madden did not take a very active part in the ring game during late years, although he managed A 1 Benedict one of the big fellows, who appeared during the htfttt for a white hope to take the measure of Jack Johnson. Madden was strictly a follower of the old school of pugil ism and he did not think much of the boxers of to-day. Madden always coached his fighters to avoid clinching and to rely upon blocking, countering or footwork to avoid punishment. He was one of the men who helped draw up the Marquis of Queensberry rules and he was disgusted by the way the modern boxers violated the code as laid down , by him. Of late years Madden had lived on | a small farm at Cairo, which he pur- l chased with his savings. He conr i ducted the place as a health resort and managed to get along fairly well. The recent death of John L. Sullivan was a great shock to the oldtime ring follower and made him realize that his own end was near. Bankers Told to Put Shoulder to Wheel For the Period of the War "Banks must put more of their re- j sources in Government securities and : stop investing in outside securities," was the sharp message brought to Harrisburg at the anual meeting yes terday of Group 5, Pennsylvania ! Bankers' Association, held in Masonic ! Temple, by Joseph Wayne, Jr., presl- j dent of the Girard National Bank, of j Philadelphia. As the burdens of war! increase he thought it likely that j banks would have to limit their cus tomers' borrowing. The third Liberty J Loan, he said, would fall •mostly on the banks, and if they could not place i all allotted to them in their various localities they would have to carry.j the balance themselves. In England, . he pointed out, the banks have put l from 25 to 60 per cent, of their total ( resources in Government securities. I Group 5 includes the hanks in Adams.

POULTRYMENTO AID FOOD SUPPLY Local Association Plans Sup port For War Com mission At a meeting of the board of di rectors of the Central Pennsylvania Poultry Association the board was crganized as follows: E. B. Mitchell, i Jr., president; S. W. Brightbill, vice-j president; Isaac Stees, secretary, and P. Edgar Hess, treasurer. The directors voted to co-operate ! with the Pennsylvania War Poultry Commission in the drive for more poultry. The president pointed out the necessity of raising more poultry to make up for the shortage in the meat -si'pply. In order to save meat for shipment abroad to tho Boldlers, the Food Administration has urged that people eat more poultry. The result is that many farmers . and poultrymen have killed off their hens to supply this demand and Pennsyl vania faces this year an estimated shortage of a million hens. Meat can be produced in the form of poultry more quickly than any other way, and It is the patriotic duty, it was pointed out. of everyone who is able to do so to raise a few chickens on the farm or in the back yard. They can be fed largely on scraps from tho table, and in order to over come the high price of other feeds the War Commission has fixed a stand ard of feeds and feeding which by eliminating waste will efTect an econ omy. These feeds will soon be on the market under the name of "Lib erty Standard laying Mash," "Liberty Standard Scratch Grains," etc. The Bureau of Markets is co-operating with the War Commission in getting the miller to make the standard feed. President Mitchell pointed out the particular assistance that the direc tors of the local association can ren der in connection with free hatching eggs and day-old chicks. It will be their duty to visit parties requesting free eggs and chicks, and ascertain whether they are deserving of the donation and equipped to handle them, Inasmuch as none will be giv en out unless the parties can take proper care of them. In the mean time anyone desiring information about the drive for more poultry should apply to tho War Poultry Commissioner for. Dauphin county, E. B. Mitchell, Jr.. or thn assistant. S. W. Brightbill, of Progress, or any of the officers of the Central Pennsyl vania Poultry Association. PENN RUNS AWAY FROM FTHACANS Quakers Have Strong Hold on Intercollegiate Hon ors; Game Tonight Philadelphia. Feb. 23.—Pennsyl vania's basketball leaders by out classing, outplaying and outgeneral ing Cornell in thirty of the forty minutes' play last night at Weight man Hall and winning by a score of 2 7 to 12 captured their sixth straight Intercollegiate League game and virtually made sure of their second consecutive Intercollegiate title. The, only chance Cornell now has of nos ing out Penn is to win all its four remaining games on the Schedule, three of which are at home, and for Penn to lose three of Its four games, three of which are away from home. This would give the thacans the title by a game, but the chances are so remote that most of Ih? Penn students following the victory last night were proclaim ing the Red and Blue the cham pions of the 1917-18 season. Princeton a Factor Princeton Is the team Penn must respect more than Cornell. The Tigers have five games to play, three at home and two away, and as the Bengals nre strong in every depart ment tnoy loom lip more dangerously to the Red and Blue than Cornell, which has twice been downed by Penn this season. In only ten minutes of the ftirty did Cornell hold its own with Penn.' This was five minutes after the first half opened. Penn had secured an early start on Davis' goal after get ting a pass from Martin and had a 6-3 lead before Cornell came to life. The Ithacans then braced, crawled to C-5 when Kendall scored the vis itors' first goal by batting the ball in, after following up a shot, and until near the end of the half the Cornell squad kept Penn moving. Penn, however, kept Cornell from getting too close when Peck scored his first field toss and the half ended 12-7 in the favor. The second half was a rout for the North ern New York State goal-gctters. Standing of the Teams W. L. Pet.

FEBRUARY 23, 1918 fYY/ELLYJ 1 w CORNER Shooters who wero here yesterday for the big state event will long re member it. To begin with it was cold on the fingers, and the blinding snow interfered with the shooters. How ever, it was a dandy shoot and scores were satisfactory. War even put a crimp in the trap per boy squad who have been prom inent in the big shoots held in Har risburg. Boys are doing their bit in various ways and the veteran trap pers were unable to help out yester day. Xew boys proved expensive as they allowed a number of birds to get away. E. W. Shank, president of the Jlarrisburg Sportsmen's Association, was on hand yesterday and he start ed the big field in the shooting. He wanted to get through early as he was a very busy man until the close of the big match. He proved his worth in many ways. While it is not decided definitely, local shooters may use the fields at West Fairview and Xew Cumberland for future shoots, until such a time when the Harrisburg Sportsmen will be able to secure new grounds. War will prevent early action in getting a new home. It is said that plans are Weight Lifting Feat By Tourney Pin Boys; Handle Many Tons The greatest weight-lifting con test of the year soon will be, with little John Q. Pin Boy starring as the modern Hercules supported by A. Bowler and Mrs. A. Bowler. It's the eighteenth annual tour nament of the American Bowling Congress now on at Cincinnati. Just a shade under 9,029 tons in dead weight will be lifted by the pin boys. Hera is how a Washington Herald sport writer figures: The women who will bowl in the Woman's National Turney will lift 388,800 pounds in bowling balls. The men who will bowl in the A. B. C. roll-off will handle 8,027,- 424 pounds in bowling balls. The poor pin boys will not only have to handle all of this weight in bowling balls, but also will have to lift 9,643,590 pounds in pins. In arriving at these figures this | course was pursued: How They Ho It Anaverage of 18 balls to a game was allowed each man and woman bowler. As the balls weigh 16 pounds, each bowler will lift an average of 298 pounds in bowling balls each game. It takes three games to complete an event, so each bowler who rolls in the team match wtll lift an aggregate weight of 864 pounds in the event alone. While he is doing this the pin boy, figuring on an average of elev en frames to the game, will lift fiOWLING Hcflilcliein Steel Company I/"ague (Richards and Brashears Alleys) Inspectors 657 749 791 Machinists # 668 624 G57 Hartman, Inspectors 186 Hartman, Inspectors 477 Miscellaneous Order Room 502 480 501 Merchandise Room 445 379 530 Underwood, Order Room .... 155 Underwood, Order Room .... 416 Taylor-Kennedy league Keystones 602 682 657 Senators 570 636 644 G.

The majors cannot afford to pay enor mous salaries and the players should be made to understand the situation confronting the club owners." Quality will always be patronized while cheap goods are dear at any price KING OSCAR CIGARS have for years enjoyed the reputation of being a quality proposition. In re turn for this confidence, the public ex pects and receives the same regularity year in and year out. The result is that all concerned are satisfied. John C. Herman & Co. MAKERS 13 under discussion to have an up-to date clubhouse and field not far from the city. Tarsus tossers are anxious to bo included in the city championship series. The Harrisburg Independent* have not given any encouragement along this line. The season is too far gone to take up plans which will give each of the four teams an opportu nity to play a championship sched ule. This is the excuse given. The Hassetts, Rosewoods and Tarsus might start a series. There would be a whole lot of interest in the con tests.
