GERMANY'S NEW ENVOY TO ARRIVE IN U. S. IN MAY

A new rhto of Dr. Otto Wlecfek'C Recent dispatches from Berlin tate that Dr. Otto Wiedfeldt, n?w Garman ambassador to the United States, will sail for this conn try the end of April. Commenting on a recent "peace and amity" speech of Ambassador Houghton. Dr. Wiedfeidt said. "As a manufacturer
I would put aside the questions o ' the past and concentrate ray atten

If s toasted. This one extra process gives a rare and delightful quality .Impossible to duplicate. Guaranteed by
ing heavens a star seeking. Of course, since ft was only a "friendly" match they mutually decided to call it quits for erood. They were satisfied to have the scoreboard remain at one-all. However, a more aspiring promoter, having witnessed their previous "friendly" mix-ups, decided they would so big: in the East Chicago Elk's Smoker of some we past. In a plam-bang match that night they pulled the spectators out of their seats with excitement, retune smiled at both of them the referee callod it a draw. Now comes the Dodgers' Smoker, headed by a dustlin director. He hears of these two Dodger boys, and presto, he gets them to ala John Henry a contract to appear in a ring once more. This time they are
supposed to settle all doubts as to their supremacy,. All the wise bugs of the club are predicting a knock-out, but no one is able to mention the unlucky man. And both of them are very serious about the outcome. 'The road is receiving a dally massage from their running dogs, and the leather mitts cut the air in frequent work-outs. This promises to be a wild and woolly match, and will Itself be worth the price of admission to see. A limited number of tickets are now on sale at the Dodger club rooms for 50 cents a head. This includes the entire jhow of wrestling, boxing, music, entertainment and refreshments.

SIGN GREAT BOUT
By LARRY GEORGE The East Chicago Dodsrers' Smoker, to be givon next Saturday, May 13th, at the Dodgers' club rooms at 4720 Olcott ave., is being smoked up in great style, From all present indications it looks like a sell-out house. Mr. Burgman. chairman of the committee handling the affair, is straining every agency in an effort to furnish sufficient accommodation for the many guests who have already asked for reservations. Much interest has been aroused over one of the boxing mills to bp staged. It is a scheduled fourrounded between the "Flying Dutchman" or Runs Learman as he is more conventionally cajled', and the "Terrible Irishman," or Jimmy Monahan. Let us cast a curious optic over their past encounters. The first time they met was in a supposedly "friendly" sparrinr match at the Dodgers' old club rooms. Outside of a four by a quarter inch cut over Jim Monahan'f left glim and several loosened teeth and lost fillings in Learman's mug there wasn't much harm done. The'r love for each other was still professed in warm word 3. But. lo and behlld! Even before the marks of the first battle hai' worn off they decided to have another "friendly" set-to. And, brother, it was some set-to. Jim had bis eyes in right shpe that day. Alter a couple of minutes of furious stepping and socking, he "Jim Sullivaned" a right hook to Learman's K. O. button that sent the Dutchman into thA hllnk-
LANSING PLAYS CHICAGO HEIGHTS tSPECIAL TO THE TIMES LANSING, Illls.. May 6. The Lansing public school baseball team
played the Chicago Heights boys on the Lansing diamond last week. The day was warm and the diamond was in good condition. A fair crowd was in attendance. The home team held the visitors without a run until the fifth inning, when they were allowed two runs. In the meantime, however, the home team had collected four scores. This was probably the best game that the boys had played this year. Lapsing has two more games to play, fcoth against wining teams. Next Wednesday the boys play Lowell on the Lansing diamond; the next week, Wentworth and West Hammond.
Preparations are fast being made for the Spring Festival, at Glenwood, on May 28. This school is to present the Early Explorers In the Pageant of the History of Illinois. There will be about seventy-five children from this school participating. This pageant promises to be one of the biggest features- of the Festival. Next week the task of selecting the teams for the athletic events will be hegun. Lansing promises to make a good showing in athletics again this year.
