while Kirby landed on third. Hale
pounded out a long fly which Davis

muffed, and Kirby scored, followed
, by Donica, who tore around the
sacks like his life depended on it.
Fuhr hit one in front of the plate
and Catcher O'Brien threw him out
to Wano at first.

rificed him to second. Cable
singled and -Al scored on the hit
from second, Cable went to second
en Kirby s out and tried to score
on Gislason's short single,) but was

Toledo Athletic Club
Gets Permit From the
Jfoxing Commission
Toledo, May 15. Official sanction
for the heavy-weight championship
battle between Jess' Willard and
Jack Dem'psey here July 4, was
given by the Toledo boxing com
mission today when a permit was
issued to Ad Q. Thacher, .and his
brotiier, representing the Toledo
Athletic club.
The permit, calling for a 12-round
contest to a decision, bears the sig
natures of Mayor Schreiber, C. F.
Wall, director of public safety and
head of the boxing commission and
the remaining five members.
The actual construction of the
arena, which will have a seating
capacity of 50,000' persons, , was
started . today. Tex Rickard, pro
moter of the contest, drove the first
half dozen spikes'in the framework
of "the huge structure. '
Formal protest against the fight
Was filed tonight with Mayor Schrei
ber, by the Toledo Ministerial union,
ail organization of 250 churches.
Copies of the protest were mailed to
Governor Cox at Columbus and John
F. Mathias, sheriff of Lucas county.
These officials were asked to pre
vent the contest
The protest said that the contest
would result in an invasion of
"gamblers, thieves and thugs" to To
ledo; that it would teach youths to
"see red" and that the record and
public statements of the fighters
"justify the expectation that we are
to have a gladiatorial contest worthy
of the ' Roman arena of infamous
memory." ' - V
Dempsey had not arrived late to
night. - '
Meeting for Class A
Managers at Park
Commissioner's Office
a
Following Johnny Dennisor.'s
proposal to'-form a Class A amateur
league to play only one scheduled
game 'each week and liave the other
teams in the league play where they
please, a meeting of Class A team
managers will be held in Park Con.1
missioner Falconer's office tonight
to have the matter explained in "full
to the managers.
It seems that the National Base
Ball Federation of Amateur Teans
has made a new ruling, providing
that, players mayTeceive a share in
the gate receipts, but they must not
be . making their living at base bail.
Dennison thinks that a league to
conform with , this idea could be
formed here and the pennant win
ners at the close of the season coula
go east fon a game with the eastern
winners. The plan will be outlined
in full to the managers attending
the meeting. All Class A Readers
'aje invited to be there., , . . .

WITH CENTRAL IN

Won, With No Losses; Meet
Tuesday; South and
Creighton Low.
Central and Commerce" Highs
base ball teams again emerged vic
torious after playing the second set
of games in the local high school
diamond league yesterday after
noon. Central High played thi
Creighton High schoolers on the
Cre:o;hton field, and won, 10 to 6.
Commerce High edged away from
the Packer crew in a seven-inning
game on the Muny field when fan
ner knocked a home-run that brokt
the'3-to-3 tie. '
McGrath, the Central pitcher, was
allowed a. rest yesterday. Mangold
and L. Konecky mounted the
mound. The Creighton boys found
Konecky for five hits, while they
were able to connect with only two
of Mangold's. The score stood 10
to 2 in the fifth inning, after which
the boys from the big school were
unable to send a man across the
plate. Errors and a home run by
Matous added four counters to the
final total during the remaining pe
riod. Smith pitched for Creighton.
Ike Mahoney, newly-elected chiet
of the business boys, allowed but
three hits. He struck out 10 men,
and Hill of South High fanned five.
Scoring ; started early: Chester.
Luebbe trotted home before the first
frame was finished, on a aouble by
his brother. The Packers had haru
luck in the fifth 'stanza when they
-were held hitless. and a base on au
error and a two-base hit contribut
ed to sending three1 Commerce men
over the plate.' The next innings
however, netted the South Siders
two runs.
Commerce and Central are now
tied for first, with two games apiece
to their credit, while South High
and Creighton have two losses iO
atone for. Central and Commerce
and Creighton and South High mix

HATFIELD TELLS
OF CONSPIRACY
TO STEAL AUTO
.. : . 1 . . i. .
i urns state's Evidence in
Ca'se Against Council Bluffs
Youths; Met and Planned
' Detail? in Advance. -
,, - -. : - ;! ;
William Swan, a, blase youth of
19 years, smiled imd yawned as
incriminating testimony against him
was given v before . District Judge
Redick and a jury yesterday, on the
charge of conspiracy to steal auto
mobiles. : ' -
Fay Hatfield turned state's evi
dence and Francis -O'Neill, third
member of the alleged . gang of
conspirators, will have a trial later.
Hatfield, 21 years old and wjth
out much occupation, told the story
of the alleged conspiracy which is
believed to be typical of many
automobile stealing plans in Omaha.
"Swan came into the Douglas
pool hall at 1311 Douglas street on
April 3 and asked if I wanted to
make some money. We talked
and he said if I'd get him a 1918
bora he could get $200 for it from
his brother-in-law." -"We
couldn't talk very private
there and he asked me to meet him
that night between 11 and 12 o'clock
in front of the grocery store at
Thirty-fifth street and Broadway,
Council Bluffs."
' Talk Over Plans. ,
Hatfield said he met Swan there
that night and Swan told him his
plan; There was an Iowa automobile
license number lying in the grocery
store window. Swan said, according
to HatfieW, that they wou!d steal
a car in Omaha, put the Iowa num
ber on it, sell the car and divide the
proceeds. ' " i
Both boys live in Council Bluffs
and they went to their homes after
the midnight plot. .
The next day they were again in
the Douglas pool room and Fran
cis O'Neill joined the party Further
plans were made and they agreed to
"split the $200 30-30," Hatfield
said. He said they understood "30
30" to mean ."three ways, between
Swan, O'Neill and Hatfield."
That night, Hatfield testified, he
and O'Neill went from the pool
room to steal a car. - .Swan had
written several telephone numbers
on a slip of paper, he said. The slip
of paper was introduced in evidence.
He instructed them, if they got a
car, to drive it to the north part of
Omaha near Burdette street, hide it
in a dark place and call him up at
the telephone numbers given, Hat
field said. Swan was then to come
out and take the car, dispose of it
and bring them the $200 next day.
The boys discovered a car in fronf
of the Brandeis and were trying to
start yit when Police Sergeant
Samuelson saw them and arrested
them. Hatfield and O'Neill have
been in the county jail ever since,
though Hatfield has pleaded guilty.
Swan was arrested the next day
and has been out on bond.
All are regular attendants at the
pool hall. Hatfield said he first met
Swan at the roller skating rink at
Lake Manawa, where Hatfield
worked.
The case is the first to be tried
under a law passed by the legisla
ture last February making it a
felon" to conspire to steal automo
biles even" though no automobiles
are stolen. The penalty is $10,000
fine or two years in the penitentiary
or both.
