SC0BB8 7 TO 3 AND 4 TO 2 Aniericus Breaks an Ankle in Wrestling Match With Lewis Baltimore, Md., April 19. (Special Telegram.) Last night misfortune for Americus blocked his chance for wrestling honors. For one hour and :orty-eight minutes he outwrestled "Strangler" Lewis of Kentucky. The match was most gruesome as well as scientific. Both men tore away at each other and the end seemed cer tain, at any moment. After one hour and thirty-five minutes Americus raised Lewis with a crotch lift and amidjclieers that could be heard for a block the first fall seemed assured. While in the air Lewis foughtdes perately, causing the local pride to stumble, which resulted in both men falling in a heap. The ankle of Amer icus could be heard to snap by those close to the ring. As both men took a standing position it could be no ticed that Gus was dragging his left leg. , He, however, continued and after fourteen minute- of excruciating pain his seconds, after a conference, threw in the towel. Not until four physicians, including' Dr. Roller, as sured him that to continue would mean a compound fracture did Amer y icus decide to quit. Omaha-Dsnver Game .

Boston won all four games of the opening series with Philadelphia by gaining successes in the morning and after noon contests today, 7 to 3 and 4 to 2. Philadelphia's defeat in the second game was due to ererors, which nulli fied the good pitching of Oeschger. He allowed only five hits.
