The All-Stare showed just new good they were in the second and third periods, toying with the team from the Capital City, and walking off with a 7 to 3 score. It has been several years since fandom has seen such an article of polo rtUhed ud last niaht. and all left with an appetite for more of the same brand. The rooters were about equal in their choice. The best part of the game was the clean playing, the rough stuff being eliminated entirely and plays stopped with deft hooks and labs rather than by using brut strength. Williams Gaea Fast. That Williams boy from Elwood, who was at first rush for the All-Stars, was about as flashy a player as could be wished. Handy with the ball and quick nn foot, ha made the fans fairly gasp in several Instances, especially in the first period.

But for the sensational game put up by May they would have tilled the cage. - Griffith, who played halfback for the All-8tars. Is faster than the ordinary half, playing a floor game with commendable skill. Every one knows what Sox did without going into details. Teddy Lewis failed to make a goal. That's more than any other defense can show this season. The All-Stars always worked the pill to within striking distance of the goal. Not one man, but all four would be right to the cage, pitching and batting it around, and few were the shots that did not give the Em-Roes guardian a stop. They bad Teddy running ragged before the game ended. Pop Bannon gave a much better account or himself tending a miraculous game, bringing forth the plaudits-of bis admirers several times by his clever work. It's Just like him though. some nights kicking enough in to lose his game while others he will be practically impregnable. Long Cages Two. Freddie Long and May played by far the best games for the Em-Roes, the diminutive rush showing Just how clever he really is when carrying a couple of opponents around on bis hart To him toes the credit of mak ing two of his teams scores while Doc Harrold after several futile trips up the floor finally landed one in the meshing with a bard drive in the last period. The first period as In the case of the game last Friday night showed the Em-Roes up and at 'em with the old spirit. When the All-Stars ended the second period they bad added four to their total while the Em-Roes were standing by and watching them 'go past. Williams scored the first goal on a hook drive from the side. It was a perfectly executed shot and. went smack Into the corner. In fact all the goals had to go in the corner on May as there was nothing doing on the straightaway driving. About two minutes later Lewis and Long carried the pill the entire length of the floor with some beautiful passing and caged the tying marker. Long scooping It in when Pop jumped to get Teddy's fake drive. This ended their scoring bowever nntll the third period.

BY FRANK G. MENKE, Sporting Editor of the International News Service. HAVANA, Cuba, March 29. The Jess Wlllard-Jack Johnson fight for the heavyweight championship of the world next Monday will develop Into an Alphonse-Gaston affair for the first of the fight unless Johnson shifts from his famous defensive style of fighting or can force Willard to assume the offensive. But there will be no fix up. Reports that the fight was fixed were denied by Johnson today. "The fact that I did go to Mexico ought to convince every one that I would not be a party to a frameup," said Johnson. Hd I gone to Mexico I would have arrived In poor shape and unable to make a fight worthy of good results." Johnson and Willard are defensive fighters. They never carry the battle to their foe. They wait for the other fellow to come to them. Then they meet him and beat him back. Never has either been known to assume the offensive, at least in the early fighting. Will Hold Back. Willard stated emphatically today that he would not rush Johnson. "Ill lay back waiting for him If it takes twenty rounds to force him to come to me," said the big cowboy. "This isn't any hurryup fight and my chances will increase with each pass ing round. This is something of an endurance test and I think that after tewnty rounds or so Johnson will be winded and worn to a point, where I can go in and beat him Into uncon sclousness. "One thing my friends, can surely game on and that is that ' I won't rush Johnson not for fifteen rounds or so I'd be a fool to do it. It I did I'd be playing right into Johnson's hands." Johnson, when he learned of Willard's plan to lay back and wait for him to do the rushing, grinned. "With a knockout. There's two punches that I've got that usually bring home the bacon when they land. Willard is going to get one or the other." Vienna, in Austria, builds tenements for Its poor and furnishes a co-opera tive store in each building to keep

down the cost of living.

Better

ThanAny

Havana where white and black This roped arena in Havana, which j will be the scene of the Jess WillardJack Johnson fight on April 5, stands a fair chance of becoming historic In the pugilistic world as the spot where the championship crown was taken away from the black race and placed upon the brow of a white man. Certainly no white fighter has ever been offered a better opportunity to win back the heavyweight championship of the world than that offered to Willard. Johnson Is fat and slow. Willard. never fast, is big and powerful, a well trained athlete. Johnson's danger lies In hip waist line. Insurance companies consider as a bad risk any man whose waist line measures more than his chest. And that was Johnson's condHion when he started training to meet Willard. When he started work Jack weighed 258 pounds, with the scrap only three weeks off. It required forty-three inches of tape to circle Jack's "tummy" and forty-one to get around bis chest . Jack weighed 210 pounds when he fought Jim Flynn. So when he opened his training quarters he was fortyeight pounds over his best fighting weight and with only three weeks to get rid of that surplus flesh. Now it is not an impossibility to take forty KEYSTONES SCORE 11 "The more the merrier," said the Keystones and away "they went with the Crane Electric Company polo five swamped under a 11 to 0 score. Tommy Davis again featured in this "rough affair" making one of his terrific drives from a distance of about five feet in front of the C. E. goal tender for a clean goal. "Speed 'em" Taggart again lead his team in goals scored with five to his credit, three of which came in the final period when tne losing five was finding time to have friendly chats among themselves as to which one would hit the ball. The boys had a good time and so did the fans especially in that third pe riod. CLOSE POLO SEASON AFTER NEXT GAMES The polo season will come to a close Friday night with a game between the All-Stars and A. S. M. announced Clem Gaar today. The difficulty arising in supplying enough defense men for the four teams contesting for the state title has caused a little talk detrimental to the game and this together with other things caused the local management to call things off for the season after the game Friday night. The All-Stars play at Muncle tonight and the Em-Roes follow them Friday. Dissatisfaction has arisen among the fans of the Magic City over the EmRoes playing a different half j- back every game and Campbell will also close after the Em-Roe game. WILLIAMS PLAYS WITH EM-ROES Billy Vogel, manager of the Em-Roes polo team, is sure having his troubles getting a regular halfback. In three games he had had three different meu. Coffin of Muncle; Oestlng of Richmond and Edgington of Muncle. Friday night be will try another local player,' Link Williams getting the plum this time. The Em-Roes play at Muncle Friday night.

The Mercantile National bank of Pueblo, with a capital of $250,000 and deposits rf (1,500,000, was closed today by or der of the controller of the currency, following a run of several days.

eight pounds off a big man in three ' Weeks' time, but It's a dangerous and weakening process to reduce so rapid ly. Jack will certainly weigh at least 230 pounds for the. Willard go and that means he will be fifteen pounds overweight. And chances are he will strip at considerably in excess of 230 pounds. This extra weight Is certain to impair Jack's work. In ten rounds, or even in twenty rounds, this would not prove such a great handicap, but over the forty-five-round route the champion will find his wind and vitality affected. Willard, on the other band will enter the ring in perfect condition. He will weigh even more than Johnson, probably about 245 pounds, but it's all hard flesh. He's inches taller than the champion and is bigger in anything where bigness is an asset and not a liability. Jess is a powerful fighter, slow and ponderous, hard to anger and capable of going along at a steady clip for round after round. ' The champion was tired and , worn out after his twenty-round joust with Frank Moran last summer. He has not done anything since to Improve bis condition and if a fighter of Moran's size and caliber worried JEFF FACES REAL FIGHTER IN FINALS OF BENSON'S CARD BOXING TONIGHT. Three bouts twenty-six rounds. Preliminary 8:45 o'clock. Arthur Stegall vs Battling Brown. Semi-finals: Jack Oakley vs. Kid Shaw. Finals: Ray Jeffries vs. Cy Young. "The best card I have offered this season," is the way Billy Benson talks about his boxing show tonight at the Eagles' hall. The main idea bussing in the head of the promoter has been to match Jeffries and Jim Oakley, who have gone through former bouts with monononous winning regularity, against boys who can go in and give these nifty fighters a real argument. In Cy Young he believes he has moro than filled the bill for Jeff's opponent, as Cy comes with the best reputation of any the local pride has met. Young hails from Clncy. and has fought and won from some of the best that have shown in that city. He claims to be iu the "pink" and ready to gain the first decision over Ray in the latter's career as a boxer. VIGRANS ASK GAME WITH QUAKER NINE Consent was today given the S. A.

Jack it's hard to see why Willard hasn't a pretty good chance to cop over the fprty-five-round route. . Johnson's chance is going to come in the early rounds. Willard isn't hard to hit, but he. is hard to hurt. Jack, however, is the owner"of a very good wallop and he may be able to master the Dig fellow, in the early rounds it's a possibility, but not a probability. Certainly if the mill goes fifteen rounds Johnson's chances of emerging the victor will not be so good as those of the challenger. BONESETTERS TAKE 2 FROM FEDERALS BUSINESS LEAGUE.

Cocoanut Oil Fine For Washing Hair If you want to keep your hair in good condition, the less soap you use the better. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle and is very harmful. Juat plain mulsified cocoanut oil (whica is pure and entirely greaseless). is much better than soap or anything else you can use for shampooing, as this can't possibly injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair .nd scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at most any drug store. It is very heap, and a few ounces is enougn to last every one in the family for months.
