MATCH

The basket-ball season in Hammond

closes with the game with East Chi

cago at East Chicago next Friday

night. The Hammond team has been unfortunate this season in not being able to secure games with teams in

the neighboring cities.

Games were not scheduled with teams n Gary, "Whiting, Hobart, Valparaiso

or Michigan uity. it is unaerstooa that Michigan City had no team this

year.

Hammond's record this year is a good

one. Hammond oeieatea Austin tugn

of Chicago, South Bend and Crown Point, and were defeated by the Baptist Athletic league of . Hammond, Crawfordsville, Rochester and the second team of the Hammond Athletic As

sociation.

Now that the basket-ball season is

practically over and the weather Is be

ginning to moderate, the high BC.fr' . athletes are turning their attention to

track athletics.

Start Track Work. Several cross country runs have al

ready been held and the boys have been practicing with the discus. It will not

be long before the training for track

sports will be on in dead earnest.

Hammond is not overly optimistic

over the prospects ror the tracK team

this year. Several good men have been

lost and it will be a hard matter to All

their places. Hammond will make a

a fair showing, however, and later on

may be able to put a good team In the field.

The bowling contest between the

teams representing the Hammond Athletic Association and Lawrence Cox &

Co.'s alleys was played last evening before a large and enthusiastic crowd

of spectators. The score of the games

tells the story and Is as follows: Cox Team 1 2 3 T Av Cox 133 162 .147 442 147 1-3 Fox .170 188 195 553 184 1-3 McFarland .148 217 173 53S 179 1-3 Conkey 155 138 155 448 149 1-3 O'Rourke ..180 155 177 512 170 2-3

New Orleans, March 10. Just by way

of mixing the deck, Manager Chance hustled three of his newest discoveries to the slab yesterday afternoon and the rookies, backed up by some prodigious swatting:, properly pummeled the pellcans again by the count of 6 to 1. A double sextet of native fans and fanettes sat hard by throughout the activ

ities and but for the cocky maneuvers of the locals in the starting stanza the trouncing might not have been so complete. - Big Frank Pfeffer was the goat for, try as he might, the former Illinl couldn't locate the pan. Five passes, together with a wild heave, which crippled a perfectly harmless pelican, helped in the downfall of "Pfeff." Like all flingers, the ponderous right-hander hasn't found his stride. The home folks touched "PfefT" for fouf singles and a tally in three rounds. Then Eddie Stack, the rising semi-pro artist, went in and applied the brakes, pitching some sweet slants, until relieved by Levi Knapp. The latter granted a lone single, but narry a run. Not content with the treatment handed him in Sunday's game, Eddie Cefalu,

the pudgy Italian, begged for another

chance against the cubs, and what happened to. Eddie's ambitions in. one tempestuous period did not leave him smiling when he said good-by. Two passes,

as many singles and a brace of doubles

blended beauteou,sly for the bruins in the production of five tallies.

Chance Ejfi Juvenile. All the time Chance sat aboard the bench, swathed in sweaters, fighting the treacherous southern winds, with both eyes glued on the Juveniles who are striving for permanent berths in his troupe of penant chasers. Perfect weather worked In cahoots with the athletes, and all day long the park echoed and re-echoed with the din of base hits coined by members of both the pelican and cub Fquads. The cubs trooped forth for the opening session much the same as in Sunday's combat, teh only substitutions being Zimmerman for Kane at second and Moran for Archer behind the bat. Pat has insisted all along that his salary wing is back in form, and while he did not have many opportunities to show class In this department, he surely exhibited a natural liking for fast balls. In two times up the Fitchburg Celt rammed a double to the fence and a single far out to center field.

San Francisco, March 10. All local fight fans were delighted today when they heard Emeryville race track had

been chosen as the place for holding the Jeffries-Johnson fight, but the prices of admission staggered most of

them. It was announced, although not

officially, that seats would range from J10, in the bleachers, to $100 at the

ringside..

The space la so large that the outside

bleacher seats will command as good a view as those near - the ring, ,it i claimed. Every seat will be numbered, so that a man who buys a cheap bleacher seat need not come any earlier than the "sport who has a bo'r seat by the ringside. Seats will range in

price from $10 to $100 and anyone who has a check for a seat will get his

particular seat.

Gleason also plans to place blocks of seats with leading railroads in eastern cities" and have reserved seats for the fight sold with railroad fare. In

this way any one in Chicago or St Louis may travel In peace and com

fort, knowing that if he is late In ar

riving here that his seat is all right.

It has not been decided whether or not the big grand stand, which was

accustomed to hold 12,000 to 15,000 peo

pie at a time, will be used for part of

the arena, but it is almost sure that a

special arena, capable of holding between 50,000 and 60.000 persons, will be

erected in the infield and that the ldfjtef will be carefully boarded over so that no harm may come to it through

the tramping of thousands of feet.

-Architects employed "by Rlckard and

Gleason will journey over to the track

some time this week, and will then de

cide Just how the crowds may best be taken care of, with a view to affording

every spectators a full and uninterrupt

ed view of the proceedings in the ring,

Sam Berger, Jeffries' manager, an

nounced today that the big fellow

would train at F.owardenna, a moun

tain resort about ten miles from Santa

Cruz. Although well up in the woods

this place Is so close to the ocean that Jeffries can indulge In sea bathing and boating. He will go Into camp in about

two weeks.

Sacramento, Cal., March 10. Mana

ger Duffy was so short of men yester-

ay that he put himself out in the

field in the final game with the Sacraijiento coast leaguers. The manager

eclded that he was of more use in the

coaching box than he was In the out

field, after four Innings, and then sent

mith out to take his place after Olm-

stead had taken the piano mover's place on the pitching slab.' The change was auspicious, for the sox overcame a

handicap of four runs after the switch

and pulled under the wire with a 6 to

victory.

SIGN CRIGER'S

South Bend, Ind., March 10. Fred Crfger of Elkhart, brother of Catcher Lou Criger of New York, has signed to
