BASKET AND TRACK STARS WILL MAKE EXIT AT HI SCHOOL

With graduation exercises only a ! little more than .'week off. some of the best basketball athletes and track men will make their exit with the 1918 high school graduation class. With Harold Oraffls already out of school and many more expecting to leave this summer not to return next , year, the chances of the R. H. S. aggregation In both basketball, field and track events are hard to predict. However, as it now stands prospects for a good basketball team are bright but with only two letter men on the track team and with one of those In

, the graduating class, leaving only one!

letter man for the 1919 track team, me prospects for doing any great amount of track work Is rapidly receding into the background. "Shel" Simmons, who played the pivot position on last year's basketball team, Is a member of the senior class and with Charles Robinson, H. Gardner, forwards, and Ralph Price, who has been in the service for some time, will receive diplomas this year. Robinson was a letter man In both basketball and track. The players who will be left to perform in the high school limelight are VanAllen, Stegman and Hardlns. Richmond high sport fans watching the basketball and track world of the school are predicting a better year this year than last. With the nucleus of three letter men around which to build a team, the high school aggregation should be lined up early next fall and

make a better showing than last

year's team when Coach Mulllns formed a team around one veteran basket player, that coped the district laurels. Interest In the past season has been at high pitch and with the war hitting college sports hard sporting fans will attend high school basketball games next year more than ever, as the high school athlete will be the oinly medium of that sort of entertainment. Next year's track team will have one letter man, Emslie. Track work at Richmond high ha3 been on tho decline for some time. For some time

the high school was out of track

events altogether and handled an interclass meet which brought into action more high school men than formerly. But with the decline of Interest and the call of faster competition

Coach Nohr again trained a track

team that was fairly creditable. Next year Coach Meller who became coach of high school athletics too late to show his ability as a coach.

Both teams clash Saturday afternoon in the first battle of the day and first for the season. The class of baseball that these teams will offer Saturday should draw a large crowd of fans. Clarence Shaver, manager of the Simplex team, said Wednesday evening at a meeting of the S. A. L. mags, that the Simplex would deal the Natco a telling blow. Minner, considered one of the best local semi-pro pitchers, will be In the mound for the Simplex against Hawekotte for the Natco. These two pitchers have fought out the title for years. Hawekotte vwith the Natco managed to get the edge on the Simplex for two years, but Shaver declares that nothing will stop Minner this Saturday in pitching one of the best games this season. Whltey Davis split a finger last Saturday and will be unable to catch for the Natco this Saturday. George Fine of the Malleable-Pennsy team will catch for the Natco. A large crowd is expected out to attend the game. Manager Shaver announced that if it was at all possible, employes of the Simplex plant at Hamilton would be to the game Saturday.

Mysterious Kid" Knocked Out in Second Round

Kid Leo knocked out the Mysterious Kid Wednesday night in the second round of their scheduled six round bout in Joe Fox's boxing carnival at the Coliseum. The bouts were poorly attended. Leo knocked the Mysterious Kid to the mat twice during the round and the second time he stayed down for the count They fought at light weights. Jack Leslie of Indianapolis and Young Walcott of South Bend, Ind., heavyweights, went the full ten rounds of their confab, Leslie having a shade the better of the scrap. Both men fought hard from the first gong to the last. One Round Bess of Indianapolis and Kid McLure of West Baden fought full ten rounds, the Indianapolis scrapper having by far the best of the battle. They weighed in at 118 pounds and both fought gamely. Fox announced that there would be another bill Tuesday night, June 11, at the baseball park, the chief event on the card to be a bare handed encounter between Jack Leslie ami a bull.

A rifle bullet covers about two miles In five seconds, while sound travels the same distance in a shade more than nine and one-half seconds, so it is easy to understand why the bullet strikes before the report of the rifle Is heard.

(By Associated Press. ROME, May 30 The situation In Bohemia and other Slavonic portions of Austria-Hungary is getting worse, according to Austrian advices received here today. A state of siege is said to have beea declared in several provinces. Fighting With the Allies. ITALIAN HEADQUARTERS IN NORTHERN ITALY, May 8 (Correspondence of the Associated Press). Bohemian hopes of independence from the domination of Austria-Hungary assumed a more concrete form recently in a large city near the Italian front, when a regiment of Bohemian troops received a battle nag on the eve of their departure for the fighting line. Under their own red and white banner and their own officers tho Bohemians are now ranged in the ranks of the entente allied forces in battling against their oppressors. The formation of the Bohemian regiment gives a definiteness to the recent congress held in Rome of representatives of the various Slav elements which seek to throw off the Austrian yoke Serbs, Croats, Slovenes, Czeck-Slovaks and Poles. Bound by Slav Bond. The Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes have an independent national organization known as the Jugoslavs, while the Czech-Slovaks and Poles, the northern Slavs, also are working toward independence. All are bound together by the bond of Slav sympathy and are animated by the aspiration to throw off the tyranny of Austria. In addition to bringing all the Slav elements into accord, the meetings in Rome have also brought the Jugoslavs and Bohemians into closer accord with the allies. The close relations established between Italy and the Jugoslavs are of special importance to the harmony of the allied cause, for together the Italians and Jugoslavs completely encircle the Adriatic. Albania was the only one of the Adriatic communities not represented at the recent congress. The Albanians are not Slavs, but are an ancient race with a language of their own. Arrest 800 at Prague. WASHINGTON, D. C, May 30. Eight hundred Czechs are under arrest at Prague charged with seditious conspiracy, while thousands have been taken into custody in other Bohemian cities, according to a dispatch in tho Tribune de Gevene, received here today.

Calls Wilson Most Uncompromising Partisan Since Andrew Jackson

(By Associated Press.) INDIANAPOLIS, May SO. Declaring that President Wilson Is the most astute leader the Democratic party ever had, United States Senator Harry S. New, of Indiana, addressing the Indiana Republican state convention yesterday as permanent chairman, asserted that he is also the "most uncompromising in his partisanship of any man who has occupied the White House since the days of Andrew Jackson." Senator New continued: "President Wilson is a partisan in everything he does or thinks as adroit as he is persistent. It is evident that the slogan of his party in the campaign before us is to be 'Stand by the President,' and the attending argument that, if one is a patriot and a true American, he must elect the candidates of the President's party for seats in Congress in order that he may have support In that body; or that if one fails to support those candidates, he votes to discredit the President and his administration and give aid and comfort to our enemy in arms. "Mr. Creel, with his bunch of Socialistic, muck-raking misfits, is employing this sort of propaganda in every form at his unlimited command the bulletins, the movies and the chautauquas. The money of the taxpaying public foots the bills." Senator New declared that President Wilson had had every possible support from the Republican party in every
