Ong, Neb, is the banmer motorcycle town, figuring on & per capita basis. Ong has about 300 inhabitants, and 23 of this number are motorcyelists. The Sar Francisco Motoreycls club plans to celebrate Washington's birth- day by a Tun to the smow line of the Slerra Nevada mountains, where the embers will engage in & real mow ttle. One farmer in Texas has solved the preblem of how to keep the boys on the farm by furnishing his sons with motorcycles 8o they -can go to town when they like, comfortably and quickly,and without the inconvenience of looking after a horse and buggy. ‘William Lenaul of Sheboygan, Wis., has started on a 3,000 mile motorcycle trip. Lenaul will ship his machine to Chicago, from which point he will ride to New Orleans, then by the coast routs up to New Yoric and across home. Lenaul is traveling for pleasure only, and expects to be gone about four months. The Natfonal Capital Motoreycle club has offered to place an escort of fifty motorcyclists at the disposal of President-elect Wilson on March 4th. If this offer is accepted by Mr. Wilson, the cyclists will appear in the mew olive green uniform recently adopted by the ¥ .A. M. as the official costume of its members. An Ohio dairyman finds a motorcycle almost indispensable in flling rush orders for cream and butter. Goustkrs Kahoras, a Greek, and an enthisiastic motorcyclist, has just ar- rived in Washington, D.

Kowalski of 100 West 17th street, New York, has taken the management of Wiadek Zbyszko, brother of the famous Polish champion, and _who promises to eclipse the deeds of Stan- islaus on the mat. Wladek Zbyszko, who is just 20 years of age, is a mar- velously developed young man. He weighs 212 pounds and has made a wonderful record since he has taken up the mat geme two yesrs ago. Im Rurope he has won several champlon- ships, capturing the gold belt at Bu- karest, Roumanie. He also carried away other titles fn the big champlon- ships abroad, Since he has been in this country Wiadek has paid strict aftontion to the American style of catch-as-oatch- can wrestling, and his wonderful speed and endurance have surprised all who have seen him at work. Ho i3 a stu- dent and plans entering the Univer- sity of Chicago to complete his educas tion, and hopes to earn enough money to do the same by wrestling at the same time.

Quits National Game for Keeps— Didn't Wish to Play With Cubs. Los Angeles, Cal, Feb. 27.—Orval Overall, who was recently reinstated by the national baseball commission, announced definitely tonight his retire- ment from professional baseball. In a statement the former Chicago Natioanl league pitcher announced that President Murphy of the club was right In refusing to trade him to &n- other club unless he-reported first to the Chicago team. He kad been ig- norant of the rule, he said. Overall expressed a declination to re- enter the game in Chicago, fearing that if he did not pitch in the form he waa showing before he quite the game two years ago he would be dubbed a “has been.” It is no secret that the big pitcher wanted to be traded to Cineinnatl, but was apprehensive that Murphy would send him elsewhere. All these are DeOro Easily Retains Title. New York, Feb, 21—Alfred DeOro retained his title of pocket billiard champion of the world tonight at the end of a three night match with Thom- s Hueston, by defeating the challeng- er 600 to 386. Tonight's score was De- Oro 200, Hueston 157. Hueston was steadfer and played better than in either of the two previ- ous blocks of 200 pofnts. DeOro needed one point to win in the 24th frame, but he id not succeed in scoring the nec- essary tally until the 27th frame. DeOro's high_run tonight was 38, Hueston’s #4.

Prices Fluctuated wigp General Drift Toward Higher Level. New York, Feb. 27.—Further pro- gress upward was made by stocks to- day, although the market did not pos- sess the degree of sustained strength shown yesterday. Prices fuctyated ir- regularly, some stocks at times show- ing net losses, but the tendency was towara a higher level and an outburst.| of strength in the final hour lifted the list well above yesterday's close. Gains among important stocks ran as high 2s two points, and among a score or more of specialties to over six points. While the improved tome during the last two Gays doubtless has been dus largely to short covering, there wers evidences today of a better demand for the long account. Some investment buying of standard dividend paying shares was Teported, although the cur- Tent low prices have awakensd no comprehensive public demand. One of the chief reasons for a better feel- ing was to be found in the temor of advices from Hurope, indicating that the Balkan difficultiés may soon be settled. .

BASEBALL REAL THING IN MELTING POT LINE. Sons of All the Tribos of Earth Are Rounded Up on the Playing Field of the National Game. One of the most interesting things about the national game in America to~day 1s its cosmopolitanism. Starting from the sand lots, and go- ing on through the minors to the ma- jor leagues themselves, the same rule holds forth. And, up at the top & more cosmopolitan’ array of players probably could never be found in any other one sport. Only Englishmen play cricket; only Spaniards and Mex- icans indulge in the bull fight; but everybody plays baseball in this country, be he black or white, fish, flesh, fowl, or good red herring. The deveiopment of the nattonal ime from boys of ome nationality, if the game in embryo ever did consist en- tirely of youths of ome nationality, also Is worthy of note. Probably the earliest steps in the evolution of the game consisted in gathering together a team from among the village boys to play teams from other villages. Gradually this custom epread to hiring athletes from other villages for the more important games, and finally rounded out in the garnering of diamond herces, of any nationality, from all over the coun- try. All Teams Polyglot. To-day the custom has spread -to such an extent that a club which Trep- resents any big league city is a rarity if it happens to. number among its ranks more than three players of the eame mationality. It was early found, too, that good material for ball clubs could be found elsewhere than with- in the borders of the United States. The avidity with which the Cubans took to the game and the skill with ‘which they played it soon led Amer- ican league scouts to hurry down to the island to see what they could gather in the way of big league plums. Soon the dark-skinned islanders’ names began to figurs In the box scores. A few years ago when it was announced that Arelianes, o Mexican, had been garnered by the Boston Red Sox, crowds thronged the Tk to see the. ailen play. To-day though such names as Marsans, Almeida &nd Acosta arouse curiousity, their entry into big league ranks is no longer thought a decided innovation. Sockalexis Was Great Curlosity. Barly history of the national game reveals, too, the presence of Ameri- can Indlans among the line-ups of outflelder, Eockalexis, when he first began to wear the uniform of the Cleveland team, was regarded much in the same light as is a Borneo wild man in a circus. To-day not much ls thought of redekinned players, unless as in th4 case of Thorpe, they have distinguished themselves In other fields. Y To-day there are just six Amerlcan aboriginies In the _major leagues, Meyers, Thorpe, Bender, George Johnson, Zack Wheat and Sheg; Meyers and Thorpe are with the New York Giants, Bender is with the Phil- adelphia Athietics, Johneon is a Chi- cago White Sox man; Wheat plays the outer garden for Brooklyn, and Shegg is a recruit pitcher at Washington. The Injun Players. The tribes to which each of these players’ forefathers belonged were land rich in the early days, with their aggregate territory ranging from Maine to Flerida in the east and to the Mississippl and beyond in the west, Yet, to-day, some of the des- cendants of those tribes are earning their galaries in baseball, It all goes to show the funny quirks fate gives to the destinies of man. Indians, Cubans, Mexieans, Irishmen, Frenchmen, Germans, and fifty ether natienalities threwn tegether in one melting pot, the majfor leagues, to issue forth, eosmopelitan still, but bound tozether by a ecommen knowl- edge in a wenderful game, and giv- ing of their best to entertain the fol- lowers thereof. Would Efiminate Loaded Balls. Toledo, Ohto, Feb, 27—A serious split in the ranks of the A. B. C. may occur as a result of the delegates to- night voting to eliminate the loaded and other freak balls from any tourna- ment sanctioned by that organization. Cleveland bowlers declare they will align’ themselves with the Nattonal Bowling assoctation as a result of the delegates’ action. Efforts are being made to appease the Cleveland bowlers. It is asserted Dby officials of the A. B. C. that the Jatter will reconsider their intention of seceding when they meet again tomor- row. Buck O'Brien Signs. Boston, Feb. 27.—Thomas J. (Buck) O'Brien _ signed a_contract today to pitch for the Red Sox the coming sea- son. This leaves Pitcher Ray Collins s the only member of the world's champions still unsigned.

Harry Davis, former cap- fain, says: ‘T was glad to get Davis again Yor he will be a big help to me. I will use him as substitute first baseman, and, should anything happen to McInnis, we will call on him. Davis in his earlier days was a catcher and he will be very useful now to train and_coach the young pitchers on my staff. An experfenced man like Davis i3 always valuable for the club and the Athletics should profit by his gen- eralship and his knowledge of inside baseball. Captain Murphy will retain the captaincy and with Davis and Ira Thomas in addition, the club will get the advantage of the brains of three veteran baseball men. Davis was al- Wways more or less of a landmark with the Athletics and we always regretted he left us. e fits in our team ex- cellently and we are glaa he is back and we think that the fans wil like the move, too.” SPORT NOTES, Manager Si McDonald will have the squad in charge in about a month. The first cxhibition game will be with the Troy team of the New York State league. Manager has signed another shortstop, which ® Jack Zeller of Pittsfleld will give him three players te fight for the position. The new man is Jack Fryer of Pawtucket. The other candidates for the Pittsfield shortfield job are Jim Collins and Jack Martin. The latest copy of the London Daily Mall to arrive includes In its sporting notes an item relating that “McGov- ern of Saltcoats adhibited his signa- ture to-dey to an Amateur league form.” Wonder what Jerry Connell would say if George Cameron re- quested him to “adhibit his signa- ture?” The dopesters look . to Reggie Brown, the former New Britain and Waterbury flinger, to show a lot of stuff with the Athletics this season. Reggle went south with the Mackmen. He was given a great sendoff by At- lantic City fans, who dined him a couple of days previous in honor of his twenty-fourth birthday, anniver- sary. Morton F. Plant, owner of the New London Miliionaire Kids of the East- ern association leaves this week for & long stay on the Pacific coast but Manager Johnny Burns will probably keep him informed of the progress of the team in spring training, Maybe Owner Plant has just gone ‘to- the coast to pick out a training ground for next year.
