SOX GET REVENGE

Oil ISBELL'S IM Regulars Make Amends For Defeat of Seconds ? byDowning Witches. Wichita, Kan., March 2S. Having made a clean sweep of the Texas league towns, the White Sox premiers stopped oft here yesterday long enough to -avenge in full the defeat suffered by the No. 2 bunch -yesterday at the j hands of Isbell's Witches. The nu-I merals 9 to 5 Indicate the measure of the revenge obtained, but.it was no easy or hollow victory. Duffy's men came near catching a tartar, for they were made to work i harder than they expected to after their soft exercises of last week. Right off the dock Isbell's frisky boys gave the Sox something to think about by bumping Irving (Cy) Toung for a lead of three runs in the first assault. He tnvorinif f r r rr t Vila tf c a i a Toung stopped the home boys except for a one. run splurge in the fourth round. He was going all right, de spite the fact he was up against eight right-handed batsmen in a row until he sixth, when he hurt his weak ankle making a quick play at first base. That compelled him to let Lange finish the

Chl-IKame for him. Lange did it to the

lying's taste, although stocky Frank Is nursing a slightly lame wing. 111 III TEAMS ENTER Indianapolis. Ind., March 2S. Secre tary .A. G.

J his means tnat me contest win be far from one-sided, as Burns has demonstrated that he can hold his own hold his his weight against any boy of his weight. At catchwelghts Attell undoubtedly would best Burns, but there is a question if he can hold his own at the stipulated weight. Attell has been working hard and will be lighter ty four pounds than at any time during the last three years. TEXAS WINS COCKING MAIN El Paso. Texas,' March 28.

KlflG COLE HURLS. ... CUBS TO VICTORY

Star of 1910 Works Full Game Against Nashville For 8 to 4 Count. Nashville, Term., March 28. Two understudies. Victor Saier and Jimmy royle,' played the matinee yesterdav with the Cub regulars in the first of a series of three exhibitions against the Volunteers of this town, and the game resulted 8 to 4 in favor of t, vatunoi league champions. Timely hitting with one two-base swat by F. Schulte deserving especial mention, brought the victory, while "King" Cole, leading flinger for the Cubs last season, breexed through the contest without extending himself at any time. The Cubs gave Cole a commanding lead and he never was forced to pitch except to get three men out in the ninth inning after he had permitted the bases to be filled. He escaped with two runs in that frame and used his speed and curve ball more than in all the other innings combined. F. Schulte pulled his corking two-base drive against the right field hill and in the sixth with three Cubs on the bags and all came home, his wallop assuring victory to Chicago. WOLGAST REFUSES TO PREDICT LEI1GTH OF LAGBAMTTLE Declares Butchertown Lad Is Tough Boy Who Will Be Hard to Beat. San Francisco, Cal.. March. 28. "How long do I think it will take to defeat Lagrave? Well, that is a proposition 1 -"'c upon. I ne go the full twenty rounds. and again It may end before the half way man is reacnea. iegrave is a sturdy, tough boy, and while I am confident of victory, I look to see him put up a good fight." Thus declared Ad Wolgast, cham pion Mghtweight pugilist of the world at the close of his day's work at the Seal Rock gymnasium. There is one thing certain," he continued, "and that is that I will go into the ring in Just as good physical condition as when I won the title from Nelson. I am well below the 133-pound notch right now and beybnd a limited amount of roadwork and sparring I need nothing to put on the finishing touches." Wolgast did a good day's work yesterday, bt- it was nowhere near as strenuous as that of Sunday. In the morning he did a five-mile turn on the road and In the afternoon sparred six rounds. ! Lagrave has shown no signs of a letup in his daily routine at Shannon's placp in Ran Rafael. The Butchertown lad, according to the wise ones, is having considerable troubie in getting down to Weight and there Is some fear that the strenuous process may weaken him. . Last night Lagrave Jumped on the scales and balanced them at the 1364 pound "mark. He declared later that the scales were out of balance and weighed fully a pound and a half too much. ' Stakeholder" Clark is not entirely satisfied wjth this statement, and will visit Shannon's tomorrow and insist that Anton submit to a test on regulation scales. There is little or no betting on the fight. Wolgast followers are willing to give substantial odds, but up to date no Lagrave money has been produced.

fense had represented to him that an appeal had been granted.

K, District Attorney Flckert has Inter ested himself in the case, and declares every effort will be made in support of the police court judgment. Fickert called on Police Judge Treadwell and asked him if he thought a sentence of five days would serve -the ends of Justice. "I certainly do not," replied Judge Treadwell. "Before passing sentence on this man I looked up his record. I find that he has been convicted in the Ran Francisco courts fourteen times for reckless speeding. Under the circumstances I think the sentence is too mild. If s.vthing." Attorney John Greeley, who has charge of Johnson's case, said one reason why an appeal should be granted was that Judge Treadwell bad promised to let Johnson off with a fine If he pleaded guilty. In reply to this Judge Treadwell savs: " "This statement is not true. Johnson came to my office and told me he wanted to get away from San Fran cisco, and in order to save time he would enter a plea of guilty." BACK MORRIS TO FINISH SCHRECK III 5 ROUNDS Sapulpa, Okla..

DOG SHOW IS OPENED; THROHG SEE CAI1IIIES Quantity and Quality Feature, Exhibit at Kennel V Club Show. With the growls and barks ringing in the ears of a tremendous crowd, the tenth annual bench show, of the Chicago Kennel club was opened under gratifying conditions last night at the First Regiment Armory. Never before has this event brought together such a high class lot of canines. In several classes champions which have beaten all competitors In their various exhibitions are pitted against each other, and blue ribbons seem to float on the neck of almost every entry. What probably will result in the keenest work of the judges will be the case of collies, beagles and Airdales, as these classes apparently have carried oft the honors for the number on exhibit. The large, gathering gazed upon not only quantity, but quality as well, and before the end of the show the Chicago Kennel club probably will have established new dog show records.
