the Garrlck, where Mr. Donlin and Ma

please the noted athletes. The failure

to play" ball was a severe disappointment to the Cubs, more so while the

Reds are In town. Members of both teams journeyed to the yard In the hope the climate might relent.

was making feeble effort to make its debut for the day, and Bob Hedges

donning their spangles, were checked

heard that the game had ben called off.

Indiana Harbor State Bank Indiana Harbor, Indiana

Rowardennan, Cal., April 23. Hot

sunshine did not check Jeffries In his

training yesterday, and he put in his longest boxing session so far in two

bouts with Berger and Armstrong. Al- i

though the latter was quite willing to quit at the end of three rounds, Jef

fries was keen for more, and Berger was taken on for two rounds. The go

ng was fast in both bouts, but the big

fighter stood It well and easily could

have made the pace for another bout if

he had found a partner.

Berger, while coming out of the

clinches, frequently landed a risht uppercut. This is one of Johnson's favorite punches, and Berger employed It

whenever possible, coaching Jeffries in blocking It: Joe Choynskl was an interested spectator of the sparring. He expressed himself surprised at Jeffries' physical Improvement, but said he believed the bollermaker needed some good, stiff boxing to put him in the old fighting trim. Joe's working togs will arrive tomorrow morning, and ' he will be

ready to assume his duties as sparring partner if called upon. In addition to the boxing Jeffries went through hie usual routine of ro3 work and gymnasium practice, covering twelve miles on his morning run, with two sessions of handball later and a vigorous attack on the punching bag. He won both handball games against Berger and Billy Paplte. Before Jeffries entered the gymnasium this morning Farmer Burns applied the tape to the fighter, with the following result: Height, 6 feet, 1 Inches; neck, 18 Inches; chest, normal, 45 Inches, expanded 50 Inches; waist, 36 Inches; thigh, 26 Inches; calf, 17 inches; ankle, 10 inches; -biceps, 16 inches; forearm. 13 inches; wrist, 84 inches. His weight was given as 228 pounds. Jeffries loafed along the river bank nearly all afternoon, but took his trout pole before dinner time and returned to camp with enough trout to supply the training table.

JACK GLEASON IN NARROW ESCAPE Kansas City, April 23. '.'It is better to be born lucky than rich," said Jack Gleason here yesterday afternoon, as he emerged from the wreck of "Cash" Welch's motor car, which had been turned Into the sidewalk to avoid crashing Into a machine occupied by a woman and child. The accident occurred at a street crossing- Both cars were traveling V

a high rate of speed. Welch, who was driving, saw that a serious accident was

inevitable unless he sacrificed his car,

so he turned the $5,000 auto abruptly Into the curbing, completely wrecking

it. -

In the party were Jack Gleason and

local sporting writers. None was seriously injured, although each sustained

a serious shakeup when they were pre clpltated onto the pavement.

Mike Donlin's application for reinstatement In the National league, which was announced yesterday, has met with the approval of the national commission, as told by Chairman Garry Herrmann at the Annex last night. So far as the commission Is concerned the former Giant is at liberty to open negotiations with Manager McGraw with a view to gtetlng back In a Giant unifat-m. Donlin was highly elated

last night at the prospect of donning the spangles again, and is now hoping that the commission will grant his request that he be permitted to work out with Jimmy Callahan's Logan Squares as a preparation for "the strenuous campaign in the National league. "Donlin is still in the good graces Of the league," said Herrmann. "When he quit the game he did so In order to better himself financially, which surely is not a heinous offcfise In Itself. So far as his status- is concerned, he is eligible to re-enter the league to

morrow and would come in with clean hands. As to his request that he be allowed to train with the Logan Square team, that is question which must be settled by my colleagues." Asked about Kling's case, Herrmann said Johnny had received his ultimatum to report not later than Monday upon penalty of being debarred for a yar. Whether he will be allowed to enter vaudeville is a question that concerns Kling and the Cub management, said Herrmann. Johnny Kling won't have to say a word from the stage of the American Music Hall, where he appears next week. It was announced yesterday that his "act" would consist of playing a 25point billiard match. His probable opponent will be Cap Anson, the veteran baseball star. '
