BIG LEAGUE PLAYERS OFF TO DIXIE; GREEK WRESTLER ARRIVES; TECH TRIMS STEELTON
Greek Wrestler Here to
, Warm Up For Big Match
All is set for the big wrestling
battle at the Chestnut Street Audi
torium, In this city, tomorrow night
between Wladek Zbyszko • and Iran
Madras, and a packed house seems
assured by reason of the great local
and national interest in this struggle
between the two former world's
champions at the two different
styles of wrestling, the catch-as
oatch-can and the Gj-eeo-Roman.
The match here will be held pnder
the former rules, the game best
known to Zbyszko, who won the
world's title at this sport a few
years ago. Madras is working out
today here, putting on the iinishing
touches. . I
The match here assumes all kinds
of possibilities and the chief of these
is the fact that Madras, almost un
known, although feared by all the
big men of the game, has the golden
opportunity of a wrestler's career to
spring into the limelight as one of
the world's leading wrestlers by
winning the fight from Zbyszko. It
is a goal worth striving for and the j
big Greek, through good fortune, isj
bending every effort to accomplish!
that end. j
Zbyszko, on the other hand, is!
about to realize his long-elierished j
hopes of winning the crown of;
wrestling laurels, his victory over
.Toe Stecher the middle of last week
and his match with Ed. (Strangled ;
Lewis. Friday night, in New York, j
placing him in such a position that j
unless he disposes of Madras he will j
take a great fall from which all the;
king's horses and all the king's men '■
will have some job extracting him. j
As kings are few and far between
these days, Zbyszko knows that it is t
up to him to dispose of the Greco- ,
Roman master or beat it back to the i
farm and retirement.
There are all sorts of possibilities
likely to result from this match,!
sandwiched, as it is. between the:
Stecher and Lewis battles of the i
mighty Pole: but one thing is as
sured. and that is that it will be
as bitterly fought a struggle as could ,
be selected for this year
With stakes so great depending
upon the result and both men
pledged to go to a finish, best two j
out of three Jails, the crowd which t
witnesses the big tussle will see as
SIX-CYLINDER TECH
The Tech Stamp Club was fortun
ate at its meeting today in having
Deputy Secretary of the Common
•wclath Frederick A. Godcharles ad
dress the organization. Tlie speaker
pointed out to the members that
stamp collecting can be made more
than a mere hobby, as many men
make a business of it. But even as
a hobby it is well worth while and
more than child's play. The Captain
showed the value of stamp collecting
in that it teaches Geography. Nat
ural History, Heraldry, Botany and
many other of the sciences. In the
course of his remarks the speaker
told a number of stories connected
with philately that made the Tech
lads' .yes fairly bulge. The period
passed all too rapidly, and manf- of
the students learned more about
during the forty minutes
than they had ever known before.
The club will an evening with
the secretary In the near future look
ing over his collection which is the
tinest in the city.
ltenr Dr. Bagnrll
Dr. Robert Bagnell spoke to the
members of the Bible Study club to
day on the topic. "The Study of the
Bible from a Cultural Stand Point."
Dr. Bagnell pointed out to the boys
the fact that the best poetry, the
best paintings, the best literature and
the best sculpturing are based upon
Bible subjects. "A real democracy
is the outgrowth of the teachings of
the Bible," said he.

•-Is Spring Here!"
Ask any member of the Tech Bird
Cluli if you want the assurance that
spring is really here. The blue bird,
the robin and the song sparrow all
sang their spring songs today at
Tech. Of course, the -warbling was
done on the Vlctrola* and the notes
of the song birds were readily dis
erned by the club members. A con
test is being waged to see how soon
the boys will be able to recognize
a score of the birds as represented

' | Wrestling has a higlf place In the j
1 i hearts of the American sporting ]
[public and to such an extent that j
it is patronized very heavily in the i
various cities by women.
From a scientific standpoint, the
bout resolves itself into the question
of Madras' skill at attack. Because
of his long and high part in the
! Greco-Roman game, he cannot but
i help being as strong, if not stronger, j
j on defensive tactics than his Polish j
rival. But, whether he has as yet
' mastered the art of pinning an op- ;

! three seconds, which is not necessary 1
in the Greco-Roman game, remains i
to be seen and can only be told to- 1

■ wrestling, at his mastery, and.!

SHERMAN LAW
I IN COAL FIGHT
i Inquiry Now on to Determine
I Legal Means to Check
' Price Increase
-■ . Attorney General Schaffer ex-'
- pects to complete his investigation
j; ' n to the matter ot proceeding against
i Pennsylvania coat operators in an
j effort to prevent an increase in the
I cost of anthracite coal, which
, operators have announced intention
to initiate May 1, to-day. The At
| torney General said last night that
I Governor Sproul will have his fimi
i ing in the premises not later than to
j morrow. 1
j If it becomes necessary in order to
j restrain further increases in the cost
1' of food, fuel and other essentials of
i life, the State of Pennsylvania may
become plaintiff in a suit under the
• | Sherman act, according to intima-i
s tion from official sources connected
i with the investigation being conduct
r|ed by the Attorney General to deter-
II mine the possibility of legally pre
| venting the increase.
j! Representative Leopold C. Glass,
jiof Philadelphia, has declared his
, termination to resurrect a bill *in-
J; troduced by him in January, provid
' j ing for the creation of a commission
,! to delve into the prices of food as
. , well as fuel. The bill has been bur
i ied in the House judiciary com
• J mittee since the middle of January,
i' but Representative Glass asserts he
will force action on it when the Leg
' islature convenes to-night.
Market lloard Considered
Another development of import
[ ance is the official announcement
j that the creation of a permanent
market board of an ifndetermined j
. membership, probably to be appoint
' ed by the Governor, is being seri
ously considered in legislative circles. !
. The function of the proposed "board j
. will be constantly to keep in touch j
. with conditions governing the price i
[ of necessities and to act as a per-j
! nianent check on profiteering in es
[ I sentials.
I The action of Governor Sproul to !
| circumvent the anticipated increase
lin the price of anthracite coal
| ! prompted a meeting of the Anthra- j
I cite Coal Operators' Association in j
I Bethlehem Saturday. A telegram '■
explaining the position of the opera
tors and outlining reasons for the j
increase, which in all is to amount to
fifty cents a ton, was sent the Gover- j
i nor. - The message said:
"The Anthracite Coal Operators' j
! Association, representing the inde
j pendent operators with a normal an- I
nual production of. twenty-five mil
lion tons, welcomes your suggestion
; of an anthracite investigation. While
: the cost investigation of Federal i
authorities indicated that an in
crease of fifty cents per tons was jus
i titled by the 1918 conditions, yet >
; coal conditions since that time have
• ; steadily become worse until the [
i maintenance of high labor and ma- j
; terial prices with increased competi- !
tion have resulted in the produe- |
i tion of at least 75 per cent, of our;
members' tonnage at a severe loss, j
"ALAX C. DODSON*, Secretary."
I Attorney General Schaffer said to- j
j day the contentions set forth in the
I message from the operators would;
| not in any manner effect the inves- j
J tigation his office is conducting. Me i
i said the present injuiry would not j
! go outside the legal phases of the 1
I question and had been initiated with i
| the object of determining the pos
sibility of restraining the increase
by legal procedure.
Silent on Combination
I The Attorney General would not
I commit himself as to whether the
'inquiry had so far indicated the
existence of a combination in re
straint of trade among the opcra
: tors.
1 "The fact that they are increasing
' to a given standard simultaneously
, might be taken to indicate the exist
i ance of an understanding between
; them, might It not?" he was asked.
] "Yes, it might be considered in
j dicative, but I will have nothing to
] say on that feature until I have
i made my report to the Governor,"
was the answer.
[ Members of the Philadelphia
county committee of the Single-Tax
party yesterday adopted resolutions
' condemning the anticipated increase,
j The resolutions say, in part, "trat it
{ he respectfully called to the utten
. tion of the Governor that the great,
j underlying cause of the coal situa
tion is that the coal-bearing lands
of the State are almost entirely in
| the hands of a very few railroad
i officials, estates and private persons,
j and that most of these lands In their
| possession are held absolutely Idle,
i Milllqns of acres of Pennsylvania's'
j finest coal lands have never felt the
i touch of pick and shovel. Coal in
i 1 hundreds of places can be seen ac
tually cropping from the surface of
I the earth. Absolutely no attempt is
I made to supply from these resources

i j unusued land makes possible the
