For a long time Redlana was the greatest developer of the game. The | Reds slipped New York Matnewson, Donlin and Seymour and put the Giants out in front. Then they switchea and Overall and Steinfeldt to the Cubs, figuring extensively in the development of that grand old machine. In the same way last season Brook- 1y turned Red Smith over to the Praves, and Red's unfettered batting eve was a big featurs n Bostonian glory.

Without Patrick Don Carlos around this summer the ‘World Champs would be now out of the hunt in place of standing poised upon the edge of the Promised Land, In Behalf of John Paul Jones. Dear Sif: Taber maae his record in a special race with a rresh man pacing him each quarter. The track he ran on had not had any use for j dition. John Paul Jones made his | record in bona fide competition among a large fleld of jostling competitors. The track had been in steady use for iwo days and had been badly softened Lup. Furthermore, Jones ran his last iap alone. He had no pacers. For this reason I believe to erase his record from the books would be un- fair and unsportsmanlike, and 1 have | heard hundreds express a similar opinion. LAURENCE P. DODGE. McFarland vs. Gibbons. We understand that Packey Mec- Varland is to receive $17,500 for a {ien round melee witn Michael Gib- hons, Gibbons to be nanded only $15,- 000 for the entertainment. If these financial details are cor- rectly reported, some one has suffered a recent sunstroké ana needs a guar- dian. Packey at his best was a very excellent young fighter, with amazing <kill and a less amazing punch. But | Packey at his best was never a Mike | Gibbons, and it is hard to figure | Packey returning to his best after so long.an absence from the firing line. A twenty-rousld affair between these { two might be Worth a $30 purse. But 1 what guarantee is there that $32,500 is not to be paid out for a nimble dancing match, in whicn the art of tripping the light fantastic toe will be shown at its highest state of de- velopment. “Do you figure,” queries L.
