Pa.. April 12.—For the' second consecutive time, Jack Ozar.' of this city, defeated Joe Turner, of Washington, winning two straight rails after Turner had compelled Ozar to concede the first fall in 1 minute and 5 seconds. Turner swept Ozar off his feet by the intensity of his attack at the opening of the bout and securing a double leg lock quickly won the first fall. Ozar employed a body scissors 1 with arm and wrist lock for the sec ond fall in 23 mi-nutes, and won the third fall in 31 1-4 minutes with double arm lock. The bout was staged in Fisher Academy of Music as a Red Cross benefit, and was advertised to be for the middleweight wrestling cham pionship and belt, but Oear declined both the title and belt, for the rea son that he could not get down to the middleweight limit of 158 1 pounds, having entered the light heavyweight class by reason of his weight of 178 pounds. Charles Fish er, of New York, was the referee.

Kearney 1 (Dick Carney), well known to old time sporting men. He was active in promoting various forms of sport, ! including boxing, horse racing, dog racing and was also an enthusiastic baseball fan. He was personally ac [ quainted with such veteran sporting I men as John L. Sullivan, Jake Kil raine, Jim Corbett, Billy McLean, ! Arthur Chambers, John H. Clark, | Jack Fogarty and others prominent ! a generation ago. He toured Europe | with John r„. Sullivan and was pres ent at nearly all his contests. Kear ! ney was a great friend and admirer of John H. Clark. He helped to train Clark for his famous ring battle with Arthur Chambers and furnished part of the stakes for Clark on that oc casion. Mr. Kearney was buried this I morning from his late residence, 724 South Fifteenth street. Syracuse Turns Down Offer From New League Syracuse, N. Y..

B. Shoop the local trapshooting- expert .the Tech nical High School Gun Club is rap idly setting into shape to meet the Academy shooters as well as sthe Heading high school organization. The Maroon tea nihas been victor ious in both of its former meets with the Academy, and Manager "Bill" Johnson hopes to add the heading aggregation to the list. In the last meet some good rec ords were hung up at. the Division Street grounds. On the firing line are seen (reading from loft to right) Holtry, Mattson. Crimmel, Reed, Black and Captain Douglass. Jn .the top picture are members of the first year class, which is indicative of the strong interest manifested by the first year students. Professor Shrein er and Mr. Shoop are in the rear. lij the lower picture is Captain Douglass. "Bill" has been a veteran on Maroon teams, and will make a good leader. He was given the hon or recently because of being high scorer Jn a shoot for the honor CERTIFICATES AS TENNIS TROPHIES National Association Disap proves Plan to Give Lib erty Bonds, Is Decision Xe*v York, April 12. —The United States National Lawn Tennis Asso ciation has approved the use of cer tificates as trophies in sanctioned tournaments this season. With the restoration of championships, this fiuestion has been brought up by clubs which are planning their ten nis events. The use of Liberty Bonds, War Savings Stamps or other negotiable securities as prizes in tournaments sanctioned by the national associa tion has been disapproved. Julian S. Myrick, vice-president of the national association, was author ized at the last meeting of the ex ecutive committee to prepare a suit able design for such a certificate. "Something similar to tho certificates used last summer in the patriotic tournaments for the benefit of the Rod Cross will be enjoyed this year," said Mr. Myrick. "Many players have approved this idea, saying that they value the cer tificates more highly than the usual trophies awarded for winning tourn aments. The reason is obvious, for they' typify the unusual circum stances under which these events were played, and In years to come they will hold an increasing interest. "Clubs are not obliged to give cer tificates If they prefer to give other prizes, for the executive committee decided tha# the matter should be left in the hands of the local tourna ment committees. However, in view of the fact that the use of inexpen sive certificates will leave that much more money available for the fund to be given to the War Department on Training Camp Activities, it is be lieved that most clubs and competi tors will prefer the certificates." Norman Ross Clips Four World's Swimming Marks Chicago, April 12.—Norman Ross, of the Olympic Club, of San Francis co, smashed f<jur world's records last night in winning the Natlpnal A. A. U. 500-yard swimming cham pionship at the Chicago Athletic As sociation. In the 500-yard event Ross was first; Ruddle Wallen, of Great Lakes, was second: R.

HARRISBURG APIE WEST FAIRVIEW PLANS BIG SHOOT To Hold Series of Interesting Events During Summer Season Members of the West Fairview Spcrtmen's Association are planning a busy' season. The first shoot by the association will be held on Dec oration Day. This shoot will take place on the 'cross-river grounds and will be one of the big events of the program. Harrisburg shooters will participate in the shoot and West Fairview shooters expect to hang up some new records for the preliminaries. A program for the shoot is being arranged and will be announced in a few weeks by Just what plan will be rollowed out in ar rarging the events members of the | organization could not say this mcrning. At any rate, the shoot Is to be one of the best to be offered in the sporting line in Harrisburg this season. Other Blk Krentx This Is only the first of mdny shcots planned by the organization this summer. This organization has lost few men since last year on ac count of the war. as most of the star shooters are men not of Army age. The old team representing the West Shore bunch will be in evidence again this year In the state-wide shcot and promise some lively con tests. Repairs have been made to the clubhouse and bridge crossing the creek to the house, it was announced by officers to-day. During the win ter the wind tore the roof of the clubhouse off and it was necessary to rebuild this part o* the house. This work was completed a short time ago. Repairs to the bridge crossing the creek placed the bridge in good Ccndition. Bitter Rivalry Exists Between Opposing Teams Bitter rivalry is promised to-mor row afternoon when the Old Men will meet the Young Men in a team shoot at the Second and Division streets field. It will be under the direction of ttte Harrisburg Sportsmen's Asso ciation. Each team will be given a neutral umpire. If there are any (juestions that cannot be decided, a third man will be selected. One rule Agreed upon is that the targets must be smashed. "Dust" will not count. The match starts at 1.30. The cham pionship contest between J. G. Mar tin and M. B. Stewart may not start to-morrow. JThese shooters want a little time to'practice for a long race. There was some talk to-day of mak ing It ft 1,000-target race, to include a series of ten matches of 100 each. HEAVY GUARD FOR RACE HORSE Sun Briar's Illness Makes This Step Necessary Says Owner New York, April 12.—Unwilling to risk a repetition of the Haw thorn incident when that favorite I j for the Kentucky derby was slid- j denly. taken ill a few days before! the race, Yillis Sharpe Kilmer, own- I er of Sun Briar, ante-post choice j j for the blue ribbon classic, has or- ' | dered an extra guard of watchmen to ;be placed around the American i colt's stall at Churchbill Downs. Word has been received at Louis ville that Owner Kilmer and a co- I terie of his northern New York state friends have formed a pool of $50,- 000 to wager on Sun Briar to win | the derby. Those who know Kilmer best say, | however, that it is not the possible I loss of this tremendous amount' through anything untoward which i might happen to his colt that has I moved him to give this extraordi- i nary order for Sun Briar's well- ! i being. . : Heavy Played Favorite As a real sportsman and with' the I good of the turf at heart, the Haw thorn matter left a deep impression on Kilmer's mind. Hawthorn, as is Sun Briar, was the heavily played i ante-post favorite for the big race. Hundreds of thousands of dollars wagered in the future books were! lost when this rolt. after training! in exceptionally brilliant form was suddenly taken ill and was declared j out of the big event. That the. attack of illness was superinduced by poison administered by an agt>nt of those who stood to lose fortunes over the victory of the colt is generally conceded by. all in siders. but, worse than all. Haw thorn never fully recovered from the dastardly attack. It is to avoid any such harm coming to Sun Briar that Mr. Kilmer has issued his stringent orders. Pittsburgh Is Right on Question of Big Battle Pittsburgh, Pa., April 12.—There is no question about where Pitts burghers stand on the matter of a prizefight between Jess Willard and Fred Fulton. That the proposed bat tle should be prevented, and Jess and Fred forced to fight, like other Amer icans, in the French trenches, is the consensus of those who have par-1 ticipated so far in the voting contest' conducted by one of the local news- j papers. More than one hundred votes for < France to every one cast for a ring! 'bout in America is the ratio of the! vote. No attempt was made to ob- > tain votes, except on the coupons printed daily in the papers. Had a real effort been made simply to pile up votes, the chances are that the ratio would have been even more impressively in favor of forcing Wil lard and Fulton into tho trenches. The total of tho vote so far stands: 'ln a ring in America 14 Jn a trench in France 1961 | Villanoya Twirler Is Back With the St. Louis Team Ylllanovn, Pa., April 12.—Vince ; Molyneaux, who has instructed the Villanova pitchers for the Iffst few; weeks, spent his last day in college ! Wednesday and will leave for St. Lcuis to join the American League ! baseball team of that city. He had a trial with the Browns last year. After two mnntl.s of extra work, Vince has finished the required work [ in his course, and will, therefore, re ceive his Bachelor of Arts degrefe in June. Molyneaux was born in Ni agara Falls twenty-four years ago. He started to play ball when quite j young, and always longed to become a pitcher.

He is np slouch when he starts trou ble and is generally in a position to dictate. He has a contract that must be honored. He knows it, also the man who made it; one John Mc- Graw. It might be a good thing to pay Herzog all th 6 law requires, and then can him. The baseball player who insists on something extra in a way of salary this year, must have something to back him up irt his demands. There is a small army of baseball stars out of jobs many of whom are not sub ject to draft. Managers need have little trouble in getting material. An eastern sport writer refers to tho players who are likely to be found in the new International League, as men who are not of draft age, as veterans. Rather cruel words. However, if tho war keeps up long enough a baseball star will have to prevent strong argument to warrant exemption. What this city ought to have is a Municipal Baseball League. Teams would have to be classified, and the youngsters given a chance, the same 1 as the older boys. In many of the larger cities, municipal baseball is a big attraction each year. Not until the basohall season is underway, will Harrisburg's popular local stars be missed. Uncle Sam has his big army many boys who have helped to make town lot base ball famous in and about Harrisburg and have been prominent in the West End, East End A. A., Rose wood, Belmont, Trainmen, West Fairview and other teams. New stars will be developed, but it will take sometime to do it. That Red Cross benefit game Sat urday night at Chestnut street au ditorium is causing some talk. It will be the last chance to see Tech high champions in action. The Ma roons are a real attraction.

April 12.—The Law son bill legalizing tfmateur boxing exhibitions under supervision of the Amateur Athletic Union and the In tercollegiate Athletic Association, passed the Senate yesterday by 31 to 16. By passing the bill the Sen ate completely reversed its decision of Wednesday, when, after a warm debate, the bill was defeated by a vote of 23 to 16. How Jess Willard Has Escaped Being "Broke" If Jess Willard had been a ball player, he might have returned owning the ball club. Jess is 99 44-100 Scotch and the rest Semitic, when it comes to fi nances. Jess was "broke" April 4, 1015. He won one liglit. and then— He was worth SIOO,OOO April *l, 11. „ . He won another light, and Uien— . lie was rated at $2.">0,000 April 4, 1017. He fouglit no more, but— lie was quoted at $3.10,000 to $500,000 March 22, 1018. In other words, he made a for tune out of his profession by practicing an eutirely different one. Willard's fortune may be said to be due to thirty-six rounds of fighting.

' President Hempstead, of the Giants, said recently that he had re ceived more applications for com plimentary season passes for the sea son than ever before. He intimates tha,t tho demand would exceed the supply. Wlierf deadheads ask for free tickets to sporting events, it general ly indicates big- business. For that reason Hempstead views the' future of baseball with considerable op timism. It is understood that the oth<?V major league clubs have been overwhelmed by fans who enjoy seeing ball games for nothing, pro viding they are able to exert the proper influence with the magn. °s.

Right Next to the Courthouse Skill Is the One Big Factor in Trapshooting Obviously, the most important part of a trapshooter'a equipment is a shotgun, and in this there is a wide range of choice, both as to tha type of arm and the cost. Shotguns are divided into th'reei principal classes: Single-barrel, dou-< ble-barrel, and the magazine or" pump gun. Prices range from twelve to iifteen hundred dollars. Various other articles are used by shooters as a matter of necessity or vanity. Your fully accoutered shooter faces the traps with as elaborate ail outfit as is worn by the star of tha diamond or the knight of the grid iron. He wears a shooting jacket and girdles himself with a belt and shell pouch; his gun is fitted with a hand protector and a recoil pad; special glasses of giant size protect his eyes from the sun's glare and ear pro tectors dull the retort of the ex ploding shell. Yet the man who comes to the shooting grounds cap-a-pie is fre quently vanquished by a rough-and ready duck-shooter, clad in home spun and sans everything except a hunt-scarred gun of uncertain vin tage. Complete equipment is desirable, but, after all, it is simple ability to get what is shot at that makes tha successful trapshooter. 19
