was
Ily V. Smith. HAVANA. April 7. Havana
completely tkxcrtej this morning y the Americans who cam to the Island to witness the Willard-Johnson light. All that remained after the 10 o'c.ork boat left the dock was Johnson. He was plated to have soon for Kingston, Jamuic.i, there to c;tt h a boat for England. The peaceful attitude of a week ago was Fhown again toJay. "Willard was the big scream and when he left on the boat for Key '(t with most of the correspondents, thu town had a drcrted aw -arance. It happened that th- ract'S closed Just as the tight was decided and dozens of horM nu n wanted to get away on the tir.-t hoat. The result was a tremendous crush and the company had to put .n extra tuba to take care of the tr.;l!ic. 'ome of the sports who departed today were broke, some were afiluent, fume were Jubilant, some were cursing Havana. All were triad to r-t away desplto the beauties of the great -ity and the food time they had during the stay here. Willard took his entire camp with him, including Jim Savage, Walter Monohan, Jack llemple and Tex O'Rourke. It was suggested to him that ho cut it down, Jess was indignant. Won't Shako Ills Aids. "They helped me win the title and If I hadn't had them I would have been in bad shape," he said. "Every one stuck to me and I'll stick to them now. Much credit is due them for the punching thev stood during the long test at Kl I'aso and at Havana. Tn the two tough campaigns wo fought, died and bled together. Why hake them now?" Breaking camp was a pathetic and Interesting sight. There was gloom uround Johnson's quarters, where everybody was sad. Jack's big smile was the lone bright spot. .ynm MeVcy and Bob Armstrong are going to New York. George Monroe, th old time hover, goes with Jack to England as his secretary. Colin Hell is out of a job. Johnson keeps up a brave front.
H welcomes the day when he can be : his own boss, he said, and asks no sympathy. Jack got enough coin out i of the wreckage to assist him greatly. I He advised Willard to not be foolish
as he and other leaders of the ring had been. Johnson still is keen for a chicken farm near Paris. He never will box again, he' said, but still believes In the game and hopes the reports are true that it will be better for the lighters In the, future. The blp nero liked Willard personally and is always a booster lor him. He regards Jess as an ideal American type of manhood. The Willard tour has been settled. The new champion will show at the Polo grounds, New York, Saturday afternoon. The New Orleans trip has been abandoned till later. The following week he will show at Hammerstein's. He has hundreds of offers all over the country. The offer ho most wants to accept came from Oklahoma City, where they want him to Judge an automobile race. Ed Weil, who has been with the syndicate throughout, i3 to handle the garden. A Joke on Weil. There is a good joke on Weil. He had been out 10 weeks with the lighters and at the last minute never saweven the ring. He was so busy handling the tickets and money he could not see the flht. Ed was the maddest man on the island. Dick Klegin goes with the road show, so does John Robinson. Both are to get picture territory. Jack Curie v goes to New York, where he will act as general supervisor. Tom Jones will stick with Willard. Ru-
! mors of trouble between Jess and
Tom are utterly unfounded. They are close personal friends and like each other. Jess is not likely to see his wife and family for several months. He is going on the basis of getting the coin whilf the getting is good' Willard was presented with a gold watch at the stadium last night by the citizens of Havana. Jess tried to make a speech and got away with It in fine stvle. It was a big jubilation.

Riscball by May 1 for everybody in South Hcnd who is interested in the sport was the plan adopted at the meeting of the Amateur Athletic federation held Tuesday night in the office of Frank 15. Barnes, municipal recreation director. Pres't A. II. Heller appointed Dr. I It. Carson as chairman of the baseball committee. Judge II. U. Warner, chairman of the tennis committee, and John Devine. chairman of the track and field committee. The members of the committees will be named at a meeting to be held next week. The various departments of athletics will be in charge of these committees, who will work out the plan for the starting of tries sports as soon as the weather permits. Present plans provide for a big track and field meet, open to any athlete in the city, to be held the latter part of May. Before that time, a large number of meets will be held by the various organizations and wards of the city to prepare the men for the city meet. The work of organizing the ward baseball league will be taken up at once. Mass meetings will be held in all xarts of the city to raise interest in the project, with speeches by a number of prominent men of the city who are interested in clean sport. It is expected that grounds will be provided for the league games, which will be played Saturday afternoons, by forming baseball diamonds In each of the school yards. At the end of the regular season, a city series will be held between the ward teams, to decide the championship of South Bend.
DUCKS TO OPEN HERE APRIL 28
Smith Wires East For Crack Outfielder Jimmy Eschan Ten Hoosiers Get Their First Workout at Springbrook.
Pres't JameB Frank of the Southern Michigan league has made public the 1915 schedule of the circuit which will start on April 28. South Bend drew an opening date with the Saginaw Ducks, who will be at Springbrook for three days, following which Ivldle Wheeler will bring his Vehics here for another triple scries. Battle Creek will open on the Foodtown grounds against the Wheeler tribe while the Bay City Beavers will go to Jackson for the Initial tilt. Terms were wired last night by Owner Smith to Jimmy Eschen, the crack Jersey City outfielder who was made a free agent during the recent tribulations of the International league. Eschen wrote to Ben Koehler, who was his teammate on the Jersey City club, asking Tien for a place on the South Bend team. Jimmy is but a young fellow barely more than past his voting nge although he Iras been in baseball for three or four years, lie was two seasons with the NewYork Americans having been picked up as a pitcher but through his hitting he was swung into the outfield. Has Strong Whip. For the past two years Eschen has played in the International witn Jersey City and Buffalo. In 1913 he hit .262 In 89 games and last season .25S In 120 battles. Ben says Jimmy has a whip like a German 42 centi-metre gun and that he runs so fast that persons standing within live feet of the wonder are jerked from their feet by the draft. Ben says this and it must be so. Anyway Ed Smith believes his manager strong enough to wire an offer to Eschen and an answer la expected sometime today. Fielding and batting practice featured the opening of the training season Tuesday at Springbrook park. Ten of the players reported for duty at noon and Ben Koehler put the lads through a light but exhilarating workout. Duffy. Martin. Hill. Williams and Eoudermllk were tho moundsmen who appeared. Barth Witt and Diem were on hand to try for the outfield Jobs while Ellie and
Ben Koehler were the infield candidates. Ben says he's a candidate and that he may he tenched at least a part of the seasjyi. That is If some good man can beat him out of the second base job. Ellis, the Shelborn third sacker, recommended by Tom Stevenson, at a casual glance looks like good material. He is well built and handled himself yesterday in a pretty manner while lielding. He showed up well in the hatting practice although it be no omen of what will happen when the pitchers round Into form. Louie is Ready. Louie Loudermilk appeared in his usual good form. He told Smith that he could put a lot of stuff on tho ball already if he wished. Ed told him to wait awhile. Williams seem to be a bit heavier than when he played here last season. He has been sxending most of the winter in the opening, hunting and fishing and says he feels fine. Duffy and Hill worked out and expect to be in good shape within a few days. Martin, the South Bend boy, made his Initial appearance in league baseball and tossed a few to the batters during the practice. He is a stockily built youngster with lots of stuff and If he has the nerve to stick it out he should make good with Smith. Diem Same Old Guy. Eddie Diem is just as noisy as ever. He whiffed the air frequently during the batting workout but his arm and legs appear to have lost none of their vigor. Witt, the youngster from where no one knows. except Ben Koehler. who gave him the chance, is a fast lad on his feet and cracked the ball unerringly yesterday. He is working for an outfield Job. Barth, another recruit, does not look like league material at least just at this time. He also wants a place In the gardens. Bert Broder, Harry Lake. Adams and Nichols are expected to be at the ball park today. Larry Korfhagen, the Cincinnati third sacker, was expected to arrive during the night from his home. There will probably be several others on the diamond in the annual effort for a place.

LITTLE ROCK. Ark.. April 7. The White Sox played big league baseball here Tuesday afternoon behind big league pitching, defeating the Travelers. 7 to 0. The pitching of Scott was the principal feature of the game. He struck out eight Travelers. Breton was the hitting star of the afternoon getting a double, a triple, a base on balls and scoring two of the seven runs.

With the Wisconsin game chalked up in the "games won" column, the fans at Notre Dame are turnimr their
attention toward the contest with Western Normal next Saturday. The team that opposes the Kalamazoo lads will be more like the varsity than the nine which started the season Tuesday. All of Tuesday's Ineligiblcs, including Capt. Duggan, Bergman, Pliska, Kenney and Berger, will be available for Saturday's line-up. The veteran Kenney will probably be seen behind the log, although the work of Motts yesterday was very' plea-sing to the coach. A place will be found for Bergman in the Infield, while Duggnn and Pliska will likely play part of the gamp in the outfield. Tuesday's workout consisted of batting practice in the morning and a nine inning game in the afternoon. "More effective hitting" is what Coach Harper will work for during the rest of the week. While the home boys rolled up 10 safe blows In the 10 innings Tuesday, their hittirg was not timely enough to suit the coach. Cliff Cassidy, the South Bend boy, was chosen to oppose the first team on the mound yesterday afternoon. Walsh and Fitzgerald worked for the regulars. Mills and Art Carmody were absent from practice. The latter is nursing a troublesome ankle. The first team line-up consisted of Kenney, c; Walsh, Fitzgerald, pitchers; Burk, lb; Lathrop, 2b; Mike Carmody, ss; Kline, 3b; Elward. If; Mooney, If; Berger, rf. "Beauty" Rohan, whose single broke up Tuesday's game in the 10th inning, waa stationed at second for the rookies.
JOCKEY RICE VISITS FATHER AT LAP0RTE Expects to Return to Franco in 1910 to Ride French Riders Killed in War, He Says. LA PORTE, April 7. Ted Rice, famous American jockey, who haa been riding at Juarez, Mexico, returned Tuesday to spend several days on his father's farm near this city before going to Havre De Grace, Md., where he has a 12 day contract to ride for Amos Turney, well known racing man. Rice won the last six big stake races on the Juarez course. He expects to return to France in 1916, where he won a great reputation as a Jockey until the war broke out. He says many of the moj.t noted jockeys on the European courses have been killed in battle and declares that American jockeys will be In demand when racing is revived.
