TIMES' BUREAU AT THE STATE CAPITAL Indianapolis, md.. Feb. 17. The Rev. R. H. Moore, who has Just been appointed as superintendent of the Indianapolis district for the Indiana Anti-Saloon League, la said to be a man who la conservative in his views, and it is understood that he will devote his efforts largely to improving- conditions in this district and to decreasing: the number of saloons rather than to making; any extensive plans for a local option election in Marion county, or In any other counties of the Seventh district. The Rev. Moore is said to be very satisfactory to E. S. Shumaker, president of the Indiana League, who has . been regrarded as rather radical and he is known to be satisfactory to R. C Minton, attorney for the League, who takes the conservative view on most things. Mr. Moore was formerly pastor of the Methodist church at Martinsville, of which Mr. Minton was a member.

A SPILL WHILE SKATING WITH SAIL INTROSPECT PARK NEW YORK. ' V SState sailing, one of the most exciting of winter snoria. is Tn a-.. lar than ever In nearly every section oftQ county Xre tL Te cer; riLZ vk,e" ,D the COM month- on can s ta hither . sa unong thedark forms of the skaters the glistening sail of the skate saflerY
. me oniy yearly series. It is strongest in the west. It cost so much ror teams to compete from long distances that the section bodies were formed. Now the best teams in each organization usually attend the annual A. B. C. tournaments. To bowl in the A. B. C. it is necessary to belong to a city association where the competitor lives. One of the members of the National association, the eastern ruling body, recently suggested that it would be a good thing to permit any bowler in good standing in any of the national organizations to bowl in any of the championships by payingi the five dollar entrance money. It should be acte4 upon by the governing officials. A couple of years ago at the Louisville tourney of the A. B. C. an arbitration committee was appointed to work In conJunction with the National association but the latter never showed a cisposl-
wuii m wore in narmony. The bowlers practically pay all the money used to run the tourneys, and o far as the cash rrize list is concerned, a charge of $5 is made each competitor in the three classes single
uuuoie ana nve man teams. The committee conducting the tourney deducts 15 per cent of the entrance fee, and the other 85 per cent is distributed in money prizes. The National association tourney to be held In Baltimore is the first tenpin congress that has been awarded the south. President Taft has been asked to attend the opening exercises April 8. A new departure at this tourney will be the scheduling of Individuals in the morning, which will permit bowlers to follow with their two man and end with their five man team games. ,In each series the contestant bowls ten boxes, and the individual or teams knocking down the greatest number of pins win the prize money
In American bowling tourneys the five man matches must be rolled first and are usually followed the next day with singles and doubles. Considerable interest is being taken in the western bowling congress tournament to be held in San Francisco. The bowling tournaments on the Pacific coast hereafter are to be on a different and stronger basis than ever before. After the recent flascovin Seattle, in which the greater part of the Prize money was not forthcoming after it had been won. President Harry Leap proposed that the congress itself conduct the tournament hereafter. It was submitted to the directors and adopted unanimously. The cash prize list at the middle west tourney in St. Louis is estimated at between flO.OOO and $13,000. The St Louis Bowling association raised a neat sum to spend on visiting bowlers and hopes to be able to entertain them at various times and that the visiting bowlers will leave openings for. entertainments and not soend all their tlma
on the alleys.
Professional Bowling. Professional bowling is to be given a trial in New York. The class is to be limited to some five tenpin artists of the class of Alex Dunber. Johnny Voorheis and Jimmy Smith, and if the scheme is wcrked out these men, together with two others, will be abso
lutely barred from league competition as well as from the big national, state
ana city meets. The idea is to form a five man team of the recognized cracks of Greater New York and have them bowl exhibition games six, nights a week. The men would be supported by an association of some fifty alley keepers, who would pay from J3 te to 'a week, making a gross amount of $150 to $250 a week. This money would be divided among the "pros." each man getting at least $30 a week. Their opponents -would be chosen from the stars of the various alleys. If the plan works successfully there Is no doubt that there will be keen competition. ... Other cities are urging the adoption of a similar system, picking out five cracks, and then at the end of the year the teams representing two bt cities
couia meet on some neutral alleys to t
roll for the professional championship of the United States.
Corbett on Johnson.' . Jim Corbett. the former champion heavyweight pugilist is acquiring the habit of talking without saying anything. Since his return from abroad James J. has been moving his Jaws with wonderful 'rapidity, the wonder being that his vocal chords are able to withstand the strain. Shortly after his arrival Corbett said he would help train Jeffries. Jeff said Jim would do nothing of the sort Corbett came up smiling at count of nine and jabbed back the remark that he will show Jeff how to beat Johnson. The latest Corbett offering Is an exhaustive criticism of Johnson's fighting ability. The ex-champion ventures the opinion that the negro has
but two punches, both being delivered with his right Johnson's left, to believe Corbett is useless for any purpose but blocking. Jeff can take ten blows to land one, says Corbett. and when he lands one the fight will te over. Before making such a statement Corbett should have consulted Tommy Burns, big lumbering Al Kaufman or Stanley KetcheL The latter has been quoted as saying that Johnson has the
largest assortment of wallops of any man he has ever met, and Ketehel knows. Another thing to prove that Corbett is wrong in saying that the black man's left is of no use was it not the left that dropped Tommy Burns in the second round of the battle in Australia a year ago and the one that took all the fight out of Tommy? Don't fool yourself. Jim. Johnson has more than two good blows.
Zbysco Must Improve. Zbysco, the Galician wrestler, will have to show more class in his matches if he wishes to get a return bout with
Prank Gotch for the world's championship. Recently In Kansas City he agreed to throw Dr. Roller of Seattle twice within an hour and failed. , In fact, he was unable to get one fall "in the ; stipulated time. Although Roller is able to give the mighty Gotch a hard battle, he admits that he never hopes to defeat him. but he never will givo up trying. Zbysco's strong points are his size and strength, but he will find that In order to become a world's champion .
were are other requirements to be met ? Science and head work are qualities that are not found in the -foreigner's makeup, while they are the present champion's stock in trade. In Buffalo recently Gotch met Zbysco, and the latter made a fairly good showing. Gotch was in poor shape for. : the contest not having trained. With the latter In proper condition Zbysco would have ttle chance ot winning - the championship from the American. In fact there Is no one in sight who appears to have a possible chance of taking the h "rs away from Gotch unless it be Hacks Schmidt
