SCIIALK LOVES LOTS OF WORK SAYSJIQWLAND Chicago Manager, Criticized, Explains Why Peppery Catcher Works So Often. CHICAGO. April 12. At last It Is known why Ray Sctaalk la behind the bat so often during the season. Manager Rowland knows why and ' now tells the fang everywhere. "I read the other day about Scbalk catching more tban 100 games In each of five successive seasons," Rowland said reluctantly, "and until 1 saw that I bad no Idea that he had worked so much. In passing comment upon Schalk and Billy Sullivan and John Kling and men of that caliber, the only thing I can think of is that Hchalk, onco he had attained a position of great prominence as a catcher, retained his ambition to work. Not that the ethers shirked, but today Scbalk is only an overgrown boy, full of pepper and the vitality of youth. Simply Has to Work. "I remember, back in 1915, the first time I ever took him out of a ball game. . We had the New York club 8 to 1 in tha sixth inning. I had used AValter Mayer as a pinch hitter and 1 had no catcher left save Daley. I wanted to take Schalk out. so I did. He went to the bench. Faber was pitching. He struck out the next two batters and both times the third strike went to the stands. Daley was nervous. Faber naturally let up, the whole club was upset, and eventually we lost the game, 40 to 9, in ten innings." This recalls that last fall, after the Sox had clinched the A. L. pennant, Schalk wa3 due for a rest. One day he sat on the bench while Byrd Lynn toiled. When Rowland wasn't looking Schalk took his big mitt and hustled down to the "bull pen" to prepare a "relief pitcher. He Just naturally could not sit still. He had to do something. Shoul Establish Record. "That Incident convinced me," continued Rowland, "that the only way to handle Schalk is to let him work. He will exhaust himself more sitting round than if he actually were in the game. I see no reason why, barring accidents, he will not establish a record for consistent major league work far beyond the best attainments of Roger Bresnahan, Billy Sullivan. John Klink, and even the powerful George Gibson. "I don't overwork Schalk I can't keep him from working. It's the lad's enthusiasm. His mental construction is, such that he will keep on working that way till be decides to quit. He Just can't help It

BOXING CARD AT COLISEUM HERE MONDAY NIGHT Three Scientific Exhibitions Scheduled Colored Champion Is on Program.

A change in the boxing card scheduled at the Coliseum for next Monday night, has been announced by Joe Fox. colored, promoter. Christy Williams, known as the "Dayton dark secret." will meet Jack Hannibal of Indianapolis in a six round scientific bout. Andrew Trimble, the colored female impersonator, will not take part In the program as was previously announced. Fox is billed as the colored champion of the world for his weight, and has been meeting all comers at the Fort Wayne avenue club where he has been training for the last week. Hendricks Trains Here Kid Hendricks of Toledo, who is scheduled to meet "One-round Bess" of Indianapolis in a six round exhibition will be here. Saturday-and will con

tinue his training. Hendricks has noj tifled Fox that he is in the pink of i

condition. The colored champ is also in excel lent trim and one night this week took on tlx sparring partners at the same time. Joe's idea in doing this was to test his strength and wind. He was battered and hammered considerably by the sextette of scrappers but managed to deal out a few black and blue cards himself. , Joe is booked to meet young Ottls. a southern colored boy. who is reputed to be a corner In the boxing game. If the local lad cops off the honors he is promised a big bout at a near future date with a Fort Wayne colored scrapper who is claiming some sort of a championship, and Joe thinks that he has the ability to dispel the Fort Wavne lad's dream. Tickets for the Coliseum card are belnfj sold at drug stores and barber shops in various parts of Richmond. Ten percent of the profits will be donated to the Red Cross society.

Only Four Classes of Egg Dealers Recognized Only four classes of egg dealers will be recognized by the government, according to Harry GUbert, Wayne county food admlnistraw, who has sent out letters in the county on the newruling. The re-sale of eggs among merchants belonging to any one of the four classes will also be prohibited with certain exceptions. The four classes to be recognized are the original packers and shippers, commission merchants, wholesale dealers selling to hotels and institutions, and retailers. The only re-sale that will be permitted, according to Mr. Gilbert's instructions, is in case of necessity to the reasonable requirements of the buyers business, but more than one re-sale of this kind in the same class cannot be made without the consent of the county administrator. In no case is a dealer permitted to sell fresh eggs to any dealer in a class further removed from the consumer tban the class in which the seller is included. By this is meant that a jobber cannot sell a wholesaler, or a retaller to a wholesaler.

Despite the fact that Connie Mack hasn't a single member of his famous old pennant winning combination left, unless we are to count Rube Oldring who is trying a comeback, the Athletics are due to be THE popular team of Philadelphia this season. This is due partly to the action of William F. Baker, the president of the Phillies, in selling Grover Alexander to the Cubs, and partly to the improved outlook for Connie's aggregation. With Burns at first, Morris Shannon at Second. Joe Dugan at shore and Larry Gardner at third the infield looms up as the strongest Connie has had since his famous McInniB-Collins-Barry-Baker combine. In the outfield he has Oldring in left, Walker in center and Jamieson in right. Kopp, the former International star, makes a high-class man in reserve. Jim Avoy and Cady will undoubtedly do the bulk of the catching. Mack thus has a stronger infield, a better balanced outfield, a satisfactory catching corps and his pitching staff, which showed possibilities last seasn, should be of more value in the current flag chase. Mack's team won't be in the race by any means, but it promises to make a lot of trouble Xor some of the teams that do make the race. There is one beauty about a tail-end team: No matter how badly it flashes the season it doesn't do any worse than was expected. The International league isn't the only minor organization which will start the 1918 season. The South Atlantic, one of the oldest leagues in the south, will stand aside and watch the others do it this year. For a time it looked as if the Sally leaguers would get under way as per schedule, but the refusal of Spartansburg to accept a franchise killed the last lingering hope. Five cities were willing, to take a chance, but all efforts to line up a sixth representative proved unavailing. It is presumed the national commission will make free agents of all players

who were not reserved, incidentally the disbanding of the international w ill strengthen the Eastern league, in. asmuch as it will permit President Dan O'Neil to enter Providence territory. The indications are the new Eastern league circuit will be comprised of the !ollowing cities: Providence, Hartford, New Haven, New London, Water; bury, Springfield. Worcester and 3ridgeport. The Eastern league clubs will be strengthened by many players from the defunct International, and the chances are it will be one of the fastest minor leagues in the country this year.

ITCHING, SCRATCHING, SKIN DISEASES THAT BURN LIKE FLAMES OF FIRE

Here Is a Sensible Treatment That Gets Prompt Results. For real, downright, harrassing, discomfort, very few disorders can approach so-called skin diseases, such as Eczema, Tetter, Boils, eruptions, scaly irritations and similar skin troubles, notwithstanding the lavish use of salves, lotions, washes, and other treatment applied externally to the irritated parts. No one ever heard of a person being afflicted with any form of skin diseases whose blood was in good condition. Therefore, it Is but logical to conclude that the proper method of treatment for pimples, blotches, sores, boils, rough, red and scaly skin, is to

purify the bloOd and remove the tiny germs of pollution that break through and manifest their presence on the surface of the skin. People in all parts of the country have written us how they were completely rid of every trace of these disorders by the use of S. S. S., the matchless, purely vegetable, blood purifier. S. S. S. goes directo to the center of the blood supply, and purifies and cleanses it of ever vestige of foreign matter, giving a clear and ruddy complexion that indicates perfect health.
