Permitting Willard and Fulton to
fight only ten rounds would be a
hard blow to the boxing game. The
public no longer stands for fakes.
Unless a fight to the finish is ar
ranged, fight fans all over the coun
try will'lose all interest in the pro

With the public." • S
Baseball started at the Academy
yesterday with a practice game.
Tech athletes showed the best form,
but the Academy lineup included
promising material and with a week's
practice there will be more interest

team. The Academy boys are hrnj
workers and showed lots of "pep"
yesterday, notwithstanding odds were
against them.
While clouds %'ere threatening thi
morning, indications were favoraaSV
for a good day for West Fairview

Here's another queer turn In the
I wheel <y'fate. Just a few years back
there vas a batboy who followed the
CinclWlitl Reds about by the name
■ of ]>>pold Hohpnschcmeyer. The bat
boy took quite naturally to the game
a|j soon found a position on a minor
Irt'.gue team, fn honor of Sherwood
Magee, the batboy assumed the then
great Philadelphia outfielder's name.
He was and still Is known as Lee
Magee. Recently he was traded to
the Cincinnati team, so that both
Magees, Sherwood and Lee, will draw
snlaTy from Christy the
coming season. That's rather a queer
deal from the cards In the baseball
deck.
There Is very little doing in the
baseball betting line. In Wall St'.'ect,
New York, a customer of one of the
big firms wagered SI,OOO against
S7OO that the Yankees would finish
in the first division. He also bet
SSOO agalrtst sl,ooo—l to 2—that the
Yankees would win the pennant.
The betting on the other American
League clubs everywhere is negli
gible. The situation is too uncer
tain.
TECH INFORMALS
WIN SHORT GAME
Defeat Harrisburg Academy
in Practice Contest Yes
terday Afternoon =?(
The Technical High school In
formal nine opened their season yes
terday afternoon on the Academy
grounds by trimming the Academy
players 11 to 2. The Maroon lads
opened up a heavy bombardment
right at the outstart, and scored in
four of the fivp innings. Fortna and
Lingle held the Academy players in
check.
"Birdie" Hinkle rapped out a home
run in the first inning. England did
the bulk of the work for the Acad
emy players, catching a pretty game.
The Maroons had little difficulty
from the Start. Esqucrro. who pitch
ed most of the game for the Acad
emy, had not warmed up and show
ed the effects during the first inning
when he was, very wild and let in
four runs on account of bases 011
balls. Fortna's delivery for Tccli
was quite satisfactory and he was
given excellent support. Howard
Bingaman umpired the contest.
First Krai Game To-day
This afternoon the Academy was
scheduled to play its first real game,
meeting the Middletown Three and
Fourth Aero Squadron on their own
diamond. The Academy had Es
<4Uerro, Thompson and Stone in tb
box and England catching. The dia
mond Is In poor condition, which
In part accounts for the loose field
ing displayed by both teams yester
day. The Academy also showed a
nervousness as It was the first game
for some of the boys. The score by
Innings follows:
R. 11. E.
Tech 41400 2—ll 6 2
Academy 2000 00 — 2 3 4
