Stanislaus Zbyszko. Poland's wrestling champion, last night removed the last obstacle between himself and a match with Frank Gotch for the world's wrestling honors by defeating Mahmout In two straight falls at the Coliseum. The giant Pole was forced to spend an hour and a half on the mat to accomplish the trick, taking the first fall in 1:04:51 with a crotch and half nelson, and the second in 25:43 with a bar arm and half-nelson. It was a case of superior strength and great natural advantages for wrestling winning over superior knowledge of the mat game. Early in the match, as nearly 8.000 people cheered him, Mahmout was behind the Pole exhausting every trick he knew to secure a fallv Th mountain of Polish muscle again t which he was opposed barely budged as he applied half-nelson after half-nelson and Varied his attack by on occasional toe hold or scissors. The wonderful neck mussles of Zbysko and the breadth of his shoulders made it impossible for his foe to get any sort of a nelson or head lock which would prove effective. When the Turk began to tire, Zbysxko took the offensive and wore him down for the first fall. When Mahmout came out the second time he was

plainly tired by his previous exertions and did not put up as strong a combat as In the opening struggle. By his victory the Pole qualified for a match with Gotch, which probably will be staged In Chicago during the

next three or four weeks. The champion of the world, who viewed the match, expressed his willingness to take on Zbyszko ,. in .his final engage

ment of the season. Champion Frank Gotch got an ovation when he walked down the aisle to a ring seat at 9 o'clock. There were cries for a declamatory effort, as they say at Vassar. Frank, however, declined to take the stump and merely smiled his way across the ring. Dr. Roller climbed through the ropes, bowed and shook hands with Zbyszko. Mahmount entered the battle yard at 9:15 and was qulifkly followed by Zbyszko. The crowd cheered lustily for each of the rivals. Mahmout was trained to a fine point and looked fit. The pole sagged some amidships, but he, too, appeared ready for the go. They went into the ring at 9:20 o'clock. For five minutes they kept grabbing wrist holds and massaging each other's countenances. Then the Turk lifted Zbyszko's left leg to right angles and with his own right leg Mahmout reached out and knocked the Pole's other pin from under him, sending him to all fours. He was up quickly and again they fiddled, but neither was able to get a hold on the other's legs. Mahmoufs speed was dazzling. He eluded all the Pole's near-holds with ease. Zbyszko, however, was slow only by comparison and he flopped like a fish every time the Turk tried t n..

a knot in hia leg.

WHITE SOX HAVE ROMP wei "Phoenix" Beats "Chicago" in Arizona Stronghold by 16 to 5 Score.

Phoenix, Ariz., March 30. Phoenix defeated Chicago in the game at East Lake park yesterday afternoon by the score of 16 to 5. White Sox day here was. not as big an event for the city as coming of the big leaguers had not It was In Yuma Monday, because the coming of the big leaguers had not been advertised for many days and the fans had not heard about It around the county. There was a crowd of close to 600 fans on hand, however, and the Sox got a good practice visit which was worth a lot to them in a hot sun.

KLAUS STOPS MANTEL Boston, March 30. With a abort right uppercut to the Jaw, Frank Klaus of Pittsburg knocked out Frank Mantel of Pawtucket in nine rounds last night In their contest at the Armory A. A that was scheduled for twelve rounds. It was the superior ability and hitting power of Klaus that won him the bout. In the sixth round Klaus shot a stiff right haTnd uppercut to Mantel's Jaw and that put him to the mat, but ahe bell- saved the loser and after that it was apparent that Mantel was doomed to defeat.

An erroneous and common practice In scoring has to do with cases In which the winning run is brought home after two men have been put out In the last half of the last inning. For instance, a runner is on first base and the batter makes a long enough hit to score him. Some ecorers give the batter a three bagger, some a two bagger, regardless of how far the batter ran after passing first base. The length of the hit should be decided solely by the point reached by, the batter when the run crossed the plate. If the batter hadn't reached second then he was entitled to a single only, and to a two bagger if he hadn't reached third. That is the only possible plan of scoring under rule 62. which says: "The base runner can only acquire the right to a base by touching it."

JOHNSON IS 32 TOMORROW Jack Johnson, world's heavyweight pugilist, will be 32 years old tomorrow. He haa arranged to entertain a number of his Chicago friends, including several theatrical people, at a barn dance, which will take place in Johnsori's training quarters In the rear of his home. The party will be held after Johnson's appearance at the Alhambra theater, where he is showing this week.

Kansas City promoters are trying to sign Bat Nelson and Tommy Murphy for a ten round bout.

ZBYSZKO SUED FOR $25,000 BY DR. MESSAGE Zbyszko was made the defendant in a suit for $25,000 which was filed in the Cook county circuit court yesterday by Dr. J. G. Message. 148 State street. The action Is for breach of contract. Attorney Edward Marshall, who filed the suit, declared that Zbyszko signed a contract last fall with Message agreeing to give several wrestling exhibitions for the latter. This agreement, according to Attorney Marshall, Zbyszko has failed to keep, and as a result the suit was begun. Message la well known In sporting circles.

Los Angeles, Cal., March 30. The

sporting fraternity of Los Angeles near

ly went out of its head yesterday afternoon wnen it became rumored about

town that Jim Jeffries had fractured

his arm on a hunting trip to Mount Whitney. Telegrams from everywhere began pouring into the city. Mrs. Jeffries was kept busy at the telephone until late in the evening answering queries, until Jim himself pounded the knocker with two unimpaired arms, demanded admittance and also to know what all

the hubub was about. Jack Kipper, Jeffries' partner in the cafe business,, alpo was besieged and, perhaps, from confusion in answering so many calls, gave out the impression that there might be some truth in the report. While denying Jeffries had in any way hurt himself. Kipper would not say "officially" such was the case. But by 9 o'clock the big fellow himself was under the covers in his Cypress avenue home. Before retiring he was asked all about it. " 'T 3 J . . ..

FRANK LELAND GETS PENNANT Officials of the Chicago baseball league yesterday afternoon voted to award Frank Iceland the pennant won last year by the Leland Giants, the decision being based on the fact that the Chicago Giants of this year have a majority of the players of last year's team besides holding the franchise in the league for the 1910 schedule. A claim was received by the league from B. F. Mosely of the Leland Giants, who will play at Norman Park this year, as a member of the Park Owners' Association, but his application was rejected for the two reasons stated.
