Great Trackmeet
Here Is Postponed
Until 24th of May
V. Grant Forrer announced to
day that the great State Cham
pionship High School Track and
Field meet will be held on the
Island, not on May 17. as given
out, but on May 24. This change
was made because of the big U.

State set for the former date, and
Forrer does not want the local
event to cross on those dates.
Every year since 1907 this
meet has been hold here, barring
last year when war caused Its
suspension. The rumor to-day
was that Bloomsburg will have a
team here, for the first time, and
perhaps several other teams will
be added, so that a big meet Is
assured.

CHECKER AND CHESS
IN GERMANY OVERWORKED
Neither Can Be Bought in Coblenz as Result of the Dough
boys' Enthusiasm For the Game
Coblenz, March 24. —The checker
and chess market in Coblenz is as
clean as a bleached bone. You can
not, in a shop in Coblenz to-day.
buy or steal a checker board and
checkers or a game of chess. Blame
it on the doughboy. After many
months, when war was the only
game that meant anything in his
life, ho was returned to one of his
favorite S. O. S. pastimes with as
much enthusiasm as he will pitch
into that often dreamed of flrst meal
at home.
Two thousand soldiers come into
Coblenz daily on leave. They see the
sights: they buy souvenirs: they go
to the movies: they eat two meals
as the guests of the Y. M. C. A., and
they play checkers and chess. Go
into Fest Halle lounge, for Instance,
at any hour of the day between 10
o'clock In the morning and 9.30 at
night and you will see many a game
of checkers that would make Christy
Mathewson, who knows almost as
much about checkers as he does
about baseball, stop to watch.
When the Y. M. C. A. took over
tlje Fest Halle, or municipal theater,
as a club for the soldiers of the
third army, It introduced several
checker boards and a few sets of
chess along with newspapers and
"Red" Hill Resigns
as Track Coach
HpBF WSk
K ST
GEORGE W. HILL, JR.
George W. Hill, Jr., for the past
ten years track and football coach
at the Technical High school, has
resigned as coach of the track can
didates and will be succeeded by
Harry DeWire, of the Tech faculty.
When Coach Hill took charge of
track at Tech ten years ago the
Maroon candidates went over to the
island and won a single bronze medal
fdr their afternoon's work.
Gradually the Maroon athletes
came to the front and within four
i years had won the State champion
ship. For the past six years under
the direction of Coach Hill, Tech has
not had an equal in track in the
entire State.
At State College. Pittsburgh, La
fayette and the Island, the Maroon
track and field men cleaned the best
High schools of the State, directed
by Hill. The championship of Ohio
was added to that of the Keystone
State last year at the Pitt meet.
(Coach Hill retires because of other
outside activities.
The new director of track affairs
is a former Bloomsburg Normal and
Bucknell athlete. While at these in
stitutions he took part in the broad
jump and all the dashes. For eleven
years his record for the broadjump
has stood as a mark at Bloomsburg.
This is his first year at Tech, but In
the short time he has made many
friends among the Tech student
body. ,
DEMOBILIZE MILITARY POI.ICE
Military police have performed their
last duties in Harrisburg for the pres
ent, st least, under provisions of the
lat-jst orders received at the several
Army posts in this vicinity. All men
engaged In such work have been or
dered to the camps to await demobili
zation. They ended their work at
midnight. i
SCHIFF FIGHTS TONIGHT
Sammy Schiff is much on the map
to-day. as he fights at the Olympia
in Philadelphia to-night and to-mor
row night meets Otto O'Keefe at the
arena of the Motive Power A. A.. Sev
enth and Boyd streets. Special prep
arations are being made at this at
tractive spot to take care of a record
crowd. This afternoon a company of
shopmen of the P. R. R., under Man
ager Runk, were busy erecting a sub
stantial ring, seats, etc., and nothing
will remain for the committee to do
except handle the crowd and send
the boxers on.
The Schift-O'Keefe bout has excited
much enthusiasm and the requests for
magazines and phonographs. The
papers and magazines were glanced
at and forgotten. The phonographs
were played occasionally. But the
checkers and the chess—especially
the checkers —were in constant ÜBC.
And so they have continued. The
call for them has been so great that
every game in the city has been
bought by the Y. M. C. A. Not only
the Fest Halle lounge and the new
reading room, but also each "Y"
canteen in the area —nineteen in all
—has enough checkerboards and
chessmen to keep the waiting list
down to a minimum. At the Fest
Halle, the first ones to arrive in the
morning and the last ones to be
routed out by the M. P. s at night
are the checker fiends.
The Germans call checkers "Muhle
and Dame." Their name for chess Is
"Schach-sptel." Some of the original
checker boxes have the name also
in French, showing that they were
made before the war for exporta
tion into France. But the doughboys
in "Y" centers on the Rhine will
never let them reach that country.
J Long before the winter is over, they
: will have worn their contents all out
I and will be calling for new ones.
' There will also be many a new chess
I player "made in Germany.'

For the April 2 Show
Joe Barrett will stage Herman

Independents Won;
Start on Hot Trip
to Phila. Today
' Harry Frankel, star of stars in
basketball, made good his reputa
tion on Saturday night, playing with
Rookwood against Ford's Indepen
dents, but he did not quite make
enough counts to win. Two games
the Rookwood speedsters had chalk
ed against Harrisburg, but Satur
day night she lost, 49-3 3. Frankel
proved his worth, dropping six
through the net. "Kid" Darkjmd
"Doc" Newman shone brilliantly and
Horse Haggerty so interfered with
his opponent that he could only
county twice.
Tho Independents leave to-day
for their three-game trip in Phila
delphia this week. To-night they
meet the powerful St. Columbia five
and should they lose the St. Colum
bia tossers will come to Harrisburg
for a game on April 5. The match
to-night is being staged for the
championship of the State.

I "Bobby" Ginness. of Philadelphia,
Schilt's manager, does not anticipate
much trouble with Dave Medar at the
; Olympia to-night, and claims the
bout should put Sammy right on edge
for O'Keefe. Ginness will direct the
fight from Schilt's corner, while Ed
die Moy will be chief adviser for
O'Keefe. , •
The bill is a well-balanced one, all
the boys being consistent performers.
No wild claims are being made for
any of them, the Motive Power man
agement being content to allow their
names and records stand as their own
dvertisement.
