"BOBBY" CLARK ON READING TEAM; TEN-ROUND BOXERS AT STEELTON TOMORROW READING TO HAVE BIG LEAGUE SHOW President Fultz Predicts Big Season and Says Circuit % Is Strongly Backed Heading, April 22.—Charles Dooln, j former manager of the Phillies, who I has been named as playing manager | of the Heading International League club, arrived here yesterday to start whipping the local club into shape for the opening of the season on April 30 with Binghamton. Manager Dooin has landed Bert Daniels, formerly with the New York Yankees, for an outlield position. Daniels came from Bucknell orig inally and played his first big league, ball with the Yanks. He is a fast man on base, a graceful fielder but never made any great record for consecutive hitting. But he will be a help to this team for he has had plenty of experience. The Reading team is now almost tilled, and it in cludes a Harrisburg lad. Pitcher Myrle Brown. Eddie McHale, third j baseman for Syracuse last year, and; also a veteran of other teams, is on; the roster. I Business Manager Kelchner has | signed Pitcher Bill Donohoe, who; was a member of the Heading team . wbague and intercontinental war.

Jess Willard, who is taking part in a moving picture, says he will finish the picture and will then go in training for the tight. But while he acts for pictures Willard also trains to light. The effect of this training was noticeable when he arrived yesterday. "You see it would not be wise for me to jump into vigorous training after being out of the game two or three years." said Willard. "It would be too hard on me. lam going to take all the time I can to get ready. I fought Johnson weighing 24!) pounds, but I do not expect to drop that low for Dempsey. My weight was 259 in the Moran contest. That is what I will probably scale when I meet Dempsey, and it is possible I will drop down to 255. I do not believe in road work for a man of my size. It is too weakening. I get just as good results boxing and working in the gymnasium." Willard denied the story that he had engaged "Jack" Curley and Tom Jones to handle his business, lie said he had paid them off and was through with them. Willard said he does not know where the light will be staged, but said he would like to have it in Kansas City. piliilllllllillllllinill!llliiTTTmTTTT!T1Iling I H OR a good H J- lunch try a |p H piece of Da veil- || H port's pie.

Pa., April 22. "Bobby" Clark, first baseman of the Duncannon team of the Dau phin-Perry League during the past two seasons of the league, and from whom much was ex pected by Duncannon this sea son, has been signed up by the St. Louis Nationals, and will report within a few days to the Reading International League team to which he has been farmed by the league organization. "Bobby" Clark played with the Steelton team of the Bethlehem Steel League a number of games last season. In addition he played with Duncannon Independents and with the Hick-a-Thrift team of the Allison Hill League. He is a native Newport lad, and played there for several sea sons with the Newport High School. During the first season of the Dauphin-Perry League, he played in the outfield with the Newport team. Afterwards he went to Susquehanna University at Selinsgrove, where he was switched from the outfield to first base and he has been holding that position ever since. and all other sports. In a general way they are as follows: "The public is naturally turning to pastimes and recreations as a re laxation from the strain and anxiety of the serious days when our chief duty was to check the threatened worltl ravages of the Germans. The nation appreciates the benefits of athletics and realizes that the prow ess and fighting ability of our yofing men abroad were due, in part, to their training for and participation in sport. The fact that baseball was played and encouraged in every camp and cantonment both in the United States and in Europe puts what amounts to an official sanction upon the national game. "Baseball will gain in popularity for other reasons. The daylight sav ing law gives an additional hour each afternoon in which to witness the games. The probable advent of pro hibition within the next few months paves the way for a greater interest in sports and similar diversions. In addition the nation is entering upon a period of great prosperity. In dustry is booming and high wages and salaries prevail. Conditions in these directions appear to walk liand-in-hand with the national ten dencies and desires of the healthy American in the selection of his re creation. "The New International League, as reconstructed, is particularly fitted to take advantage of these promising conditions. Our circuit is compact and well hacked financially. Strong teams are to represent Toronto, Rochester. Binghamton, Reading. Newark, Jersey City, Buffalo and Baltimore. I look forward confidently for a close and interesting pennant race and a prosperous and enthusias tic season." Challenge From New York to Harrisburg Teams Here's a lad who once lived in Har risburg. but is now handling a ba'.l team in New York, who wants to get a game with some one in the Capital City. The challenge reads: "Colonel •Bill' Hayward's old Fif teenth Hell Fighters, just back from France, would like to book games with semi-professional teams in Penn sylvania. All of the boys have seen service in France. Anvone wishing this all-soldier attraction, write to Sergeant Spottswood Poles, 107 West One Hundred and Forty-third street, New York City." Poles says that he played on the Harrisburg Giants when he made his home here. AROUND THE BASES Chicago, April 22. —Duo to a mix up of train schedules, the proposed meeting between Jess Willard and Jack Dempsey to-day to discuss t.h-3 selection of a referee for them heavyweight championship fight July 4 did not materialize. Dempsev left for the west an hour after Wil lard arrived from Kansas City. W'iilard expressed disappointment ever the failure of the boxing bid to pass in New York State, for he believed that the bill would puss and that the fight might be staged in New York.

Anyway, Joe says he feels justified in saying this bout and the other ten-round bout on the card, between Eddie Grant, of South Bethlehem, and Young Mahoney, of Baltimore I —not saying anything about two other six-round bouts, will give the sports the best night's show they have had the pleasure of seeing for several years.

Joe him self will he the third man in the ring in both the long bouts, which ! is a surety that everything will run I smoothly. j Joe is negotiating for a larger I hall, with ample seating capacity to j warrant him bringing all the best in : the game to this section. While j promoting in York, before the war, the veteran pulled off four shows in which there were world's champions as principals, namely, Kid Williams, then bantam champion and a pro tege of Johnny Kilbane, feather weight champion; Jack Britton, welterweight champion, and Bat | tling Levinsky, light heavyweight ; champion. In fact, during Bar j rett's thirty years' experience every ; boxer of note from Fitzsimmons I down to the present day has boxed I for him, and it should not surprise : the fans if Barrett announced that j lie had Johnny Kilbane booked for a show here, as Jimmy Dunn, Kil bane's manager, is now negotiating with Barrett with that end in view. The outcome of the Schiff and O'Keefe match to-morrow night will go a long way in deciding who will meet the champion here. The first I bout will start, as usual, at 8.30 sharp; no delays between bouts, and the usual quiet order. Barrett wants his friends to know that there are plenty of tickets on sale at Shenk & Tittle's sporting goods store in Market street, also at I Bob Fairlamb's, in Steelton. Sacrifice hit Karl.

WEST SHORE NEWS BRONZE TABLET FOR SOLDIERS Marysville Civic Club Plans For Erection of Memorial in Diamond Square MarysvUle, Pa., April 22.—Defi nite action to erect a suitable bronze memorial tablet in honor of the more than one hundred Marysville men and women who served with the United States forces during the war, was taken at a special meeting of the Marysville Civic Club at the home of Mrs. James Allen, Dahlian street, last evening. Plans for the securing of the memorial tablet already are far ad vanced. Further arrangements will be in charge of a committee, of which Mrs. Pearl B. Hippie has been named chairman. It is under stood that the tablet will be erected at the east end of Diamond Square. Plans were made at last evening's meeting for the planting of trees as memorials to the three Marysville men who died in France while serv ing with the United States forces. These trees will be planted on the plot of ground surrounding the Marysville High school building. The three men for whom trees will be planted are Daniel Speidel, who was killed in action and was the first Perry county man to die in France; James Brightblll, died of disease, and i Blain Barshinger, died of disease. Mrs. W. H. Hench has been named chairman of the committee in charge ; of this work. The plan is also being considered of planting one tree on ; the plot for Theodore Roo/ievelt. i Plans were made at last evening's meeting for a big meeting of the or- i ganization in the Knights of Pythias Hall on Monday, May 5, when hus bands of members, some invited guests and the ministers of the bor ough and their wives will be in at- i tendance. An attractive program . will be presented at this meeting. At last evening's meeting, it was decided that the Civic Club should take steps to provide for the erection of street signs at all street inter sections in the borough. The cost will be borne entirely by members of the organization who will direct the work. Miss Klise Wise, of Dahlian street, who served in France for more than a year as a nurse with a Philadel phia base hospital unit, and the lirst of the live Marysville nurses who served overseas to return home, gave an interesting talk to the members.
