HARRISBURG'S BOXING SHOW SCHEDULED FOR TOMORROW NIGHT AROUSES INTEREST DECIDE MINORS' • FATE THIS WEEK; PLAYERS WAIT Smaller Circuits Depend on Decision Reached by the Internationals New York. March 25. —The fate of several of the more prominent east ern minor leagues hangs in the bal ance when the International League goes into session here "Wednesday to decide whether it will continue to operate. With Kd. Barrow definitely kicked out of the way. the International t<tands a poor chance of developing enough nerve to go through with an other season, but there are a num ber of determined persons who de clare they are ready and eager to take another whirl at the game, with the league made up from a different standpoint. The New York State I/eague and the Eastern League are awaiting ac tion by the big eastern minor. Jack Dunn and one or two supporters are lomtng to New York primed to se cede if the International goes out, and to make an effort to reorganize by ' including seme cities without baseball. Some I.CHKIICS In Good Shape The minor leagues are doing much better than had been expected when the leagues held their annual ses sion. Several that had been expect ed to pass in their checks showed de cided signs of life.' Compared with the International League, the American . Association, rated its equal in the West, is going ahead with a lightly curtailed sched ule. The Pacific Coast League, rated along the same lines in the far West, is going ahead mainly as per usual. A statement from each minor league president, who cared to ex press an opinion, has been gathered with the following result: The Virginia League has not yet de'eided what it will do, but is ex tremely optimistic with the change in opinion that has .come from the Government support of sports. The New York State League is ewaiving action by the International, planning to take over some cities now controlled by the International, if the latter quits. The Georgia-Alabama League has firned up its toes and will not oper ate this season. The International Laague will meet Wednesday in New York 'and decide .if it will operate. The American Association will op erate under a 140-game schedule. Snlar.v I.imlt Cut The Western League's salary limit has been eut and 140 games will be • Played. The Texas League believes the best season in years is in prospect and is makin* V "angements looking to that •>m:. J. W. Morris, president, writes tht-t he expects the greatest attend ance the league has ever known. The aviation and other training tamps will come in for a good share of attention from the clubs. The Pacific Coast League will op erate as usual.

With good weather and the work that will be done on the track, it is expected that it will be in as good condition as ever before and the standard of competition will be as keen as in former years. Increased interest is being shown in the military and naval events which this year will play the leading part on the two-day program. Camp Wissahickon of Cape May is among the latest to be heard from. The entry of a team from this camp was re ceived yesterday. The Norfolk Naval Training Station, at Hampton Roads; Philadelphia Navy Yard, Camp Dix, and the Fifteenth Infan try stationed at Chester, Penn., have all promised to send representatives. At Camp Grant, Great Lakes Naval Training Station, 111., Camp Devens and the First Naval Training Sta tion. Boston, efforts are now being made fo raise funds to send teams to the games.

Those who now promote exhibitions show a desire to keep within the law. This feature is already in evi dence at many shows throughout the state. Pittsburgh is having high class shows conducted along linos mentioned as part of plans of those interested in a state boxing bill. In Philadelphia managers who fa vor state legislation are trying to educate the public to the belief ihat boxing is not brutal. Every effort possible is being made to eliminate objectionable features. Present at Harrisburg's first show of the season to-morrow night will be Jack Hanlon, of the Olympia Club. Philadelphia. "This is one or ganization that has been offering something real in boxing shows. Manager Ilanlon assisted the railroad boys in arranging the bill for to morrow night. He wants Harrisburg on the cir cuit that will furnish clean ring sport. His presence here to-mor row with that of Frank ("Pop") O'Brien, has added increased inter est in the show. It is understood that if this city shows a big demand for the best that can be had in box ing exhibitions. Jack Hanlon will help the local associations to get good talent. Due to the lateness In starting local exhibitions there may be only one more show this season, but if nothing interferes plans will be started early in the fall. May Get Soldier Boxers If another show is possible Ihis season, it is understood that efforts will be made to have on the next program a number of thp classy box ers now in Army training camps. Boxing is popular with soldiers and backed by Army officials, and Har risburg is located within easy reach of camps where ring stars are quite prominent just now. The bill offered for to-morrow night is strictly a local enterprise, backed by the Motive Power Athle tic Association.

In the windup, scheduled for ten rounds, Charlie (Toughey) Murray will meet K. O. Joe O'Don nell, of Gloucester, N. J. These hoys have a reputation and it is going to be some windup. Big crowds are coming from York and Lancaster to see this show and are especially in terested in the closing feature. Strong Scmlwlndup The semitvindup will be just ;.<> strong as the last offering. Joe Mc-j Carron, who has been anxious to get acquainted with Harrisburg fans, is scheduled to meet Sammy Schiff. a local boy. The latter has proved his worth at recent snows given by the Motive Power Association and under the management of J. E. McNaight will try for honors. He "lost to Joe McCarron at Lancaster and claimed the decision was unjust. This is what brings these boys to gether in Harrisburg. He has fought four hard fights and won them all. Schiff is anxious to make good.and will be going fast from the first bell. It is probable that if he comes through all right he will get a chal lenge from one or more local boys and also from a Lancaster lad. Schiff wants to meet all comers and for this reason he is not going to let McCarron crimp his chances. Fast Preliminaries Much interest is also manifested in the preliminaries. Nat Isaacman, the plucky Harrisburg boy who has been showing great form at the lo cal athletic association membership SIIOWB, meets Kid Crow of this city, formerly of Altoona. The latter boy has also been making good. The two Lancaster boys, Sam Kautz and Young Russell, will meet in a six round contest. If the boys show their usual form, there is likely to be a short battle. They are bitter rivals. Seats are on sale at George W. Bogar's, 12-14 North Market Square. This store will be open to-night to accommodate those who work during the day and want to get tickets be fore the show. Results of Games in Big League Training Camps Jacksonville.

DEATH CLAIMS MIKE DONOVAN Teddy Roosevelt's Former Boxing Instructor Suc cumbs to Pneumonia New York, March 25. —"Profes- sor" Mike Donovan, prize lighter and many many years boxing instructor at the New York Athletic Club, died at 12.30 yesterday morning at St. Francis' Hospital, in the Bronx. He had been taken there several days ago suffering with pneumonia. He was 7 4 years old. The famous pugilist and instruc tor, who had for some tipie devoted his services to the interests of the government as a recruiting speaker, took a turn for the worst about 4 p. m. Saturday. At 10.30 he became unconscious and never recovered. His married daughter and son-in-law were with him from early in the of ternoon until he died. Donovan's career in the ring car-L ricd him over tlie period from 1 Stiti.i when he fought Bill Crowley at' Pittsburgh with bare knuckles, to 1888, when lie beat Jack Dempsey in six rounds and retired still undc-, featcd middleweight champion. Almost until the time he became i sick Donovan was a familiar figure in the "gym" of the New York Ath-; letlc Club. He had been master in-, structor of boxing at the institution fer a generation and a half and In that capacity had had as pupils not a few figures of national prominence, including former President Roose-i velt. "The Professor" retired as in-1 structor not long ago, but he found it impossible to remain away from, the gym of the athletic club for any length of time. At the beginning of the Civil War he enlisted In the Seventy-first 'lll- 1 nois Volunteers and he saw action during the four years of fighting. It was In the year following thei close of the war that Donovan began ; his ring career, when he met and l defeated Billy Crowley, at Pitts- 1 burgh. After a number of minor bouts during the successive years he met Jim Murray and Driscoll. of Troy, in 1873, and in 1877, 1878 and 1879 in California he battled against! Bill McClellan, who was considered, one of the foremost middleweight*. 1 In 1 879 Doltovan urranged a bout I with John L. Sullivan, later heavy weight champion. Under the agree-! ment by which the fight was staged l Sullivan was to box at a benefit to, be given to Mike, and the latter In return was to aid him in arranging l other bouts. Sullivan was virtual-' ly unknown at tho time. The twoj pugilists met at the Howard Athen-I eum, in Boston, and Sullivan sur-j prised the fight fans by turning out, according to one of the witnesses, j "to be a whale o£ a lighting man." | Mike, however, proved a match for; him and showed himself able to' withstand the onslaughts of the lat- j er champion, although he broke liisi right hand in doing so. In 1884. when the New York A. C. was looking for an Instructor, Dono-j van met Walter Watson in a battle | for the job in the old Clarendon Hall, j Mike was the victor and held the j position a number of years.

WINS HIS BRIDE WITH HOME RUN; NOW EXEMPTION St. I.ouix, March 25.—Douglas Baird, inlielder of the St. Louis Car dinals, has been placed in Class 4 for the next Army draft, and thereby hangs a tale. When Doug appeared before his local draft board he testi- j lied that he bad been married on j October 19, 1917. "Your marriage came too late fori exemption," he was told. "Yes, but I was engaged before thei draft went into effect," answered j Baird. "Tile law went into effect in May," i raid the board examiner. "How long before were you engaged, and | how can you prove it?"

The Giant shortstop registered at the plate one or more times in nine straight games, beginning on July 31 and ending August 9. And that was the era when the Giants were trying to clinch the pennant, und Fletcher's streak of coring surely helped the McGraw clansman might ily. Rehg, the Boston youngster, was a good third with a streak of eight games, while Maranville, Burns, Mann, of the Cubs; Luderus, of the Phillies, and Flack, of the Cubs, tied for fourth place with seven-game streaks. Parking in Center of Market Square Now Is Suggested Need of additional traffic regula tions for parking in Market Square may result In the Passage of an or dinance by Council compelling auto ists to park their machines in the center of the Square instead of along the curb-line, It was said to-day. A number of conferences have been held at police headquarters to discuss traffic conditions, Captain Joseph P. Thompson recommending such action. If a measure i£ passed directing owners of vehicles to park in the center of the Square, better protec tion will be necessary for persons waiting on streetcars. It may be de cided to place a low curbing around the safety zone, or to stretch chains attached to standards. Traffic officers also haw suggest- I ed a police regulation compelling pe j destrians to cross streets only at in tersections, and imposing a fine for violations. According to some of the city authorities, serious accidents would occur almost dally but for the extreme care which autolsts take In driving over downtown streets, as scores of persons cross at any point they choose, frequently stepping al most directly In the path of an ap proaching automobile or streetcar.

"We had been friends a long time and I had asked her Jo marry me several times, and that morning she said she would agree to it if I knocked a home run that afternoon. I don't know whether that was the real reason or not, but that after noon I hit the bull sign and won a prize of SSO and when I went out to the house that night I told her she had to' make good and she said: 'Yes.' That's enough to tlx it in anybody's mind, isn't it?"
