Foster, secretary of the Giants, has sent slips 1o his players, which may not be very welcome. The slips sent out were to the effect that Uncle Sam wanted his income tax. The Giant plavers must pay an income tax for t}: year ending March 1, 1914, in- that is, Buch single men who drew over $3.000 and such married men who carry home over $4,000. The question now arises Whether the money earned by the Giants in the world’s series should be inciuded i their income. ~Foster says the ques- tlon is too big for him to solve and Uncle Sam musi decida for himself Whether he wants a rake-off on the hard-earned coin the poor Giant toss- ers annually win for losing the world's series. WOLGAST AGAINST DUNDEE, Rare Battle as Dunde Form. Ad Wolgast, the former lightweight champion of the world, who for the last several months s shown unmis- able signs of “coming back” and who still cherishes the idea of regaining the lightweight championship, will soon be geen in action. He has been match- ed to meet Johnny Dundee, the West Side featherweight, In a ten round bout in New York on February 17. According to the agreement as an- nounced by Jesse McMahon Wolgast will receive a guarantee of $3,500, while Dundee will recelve 50 per cent. of in Great i the remainder of the gate receipts. MOTORCYCLE INTERESTS, Among the many motorcycle clubs which are already making definite plans for the coming season’s events is the Short Grass oclub, of Kansas, which 1s one of the strongest motor- cycle organizations of the country. For the past two summers the Short Grass club has staged extensive tours which have attracted the attention of motorevelists everywhere and they are planning a similar event for this year. The tour of 1912 was considered the biggest event of the kind ever under- taken. the tour, which covered 1,000 miles and extended over a period of fifteen days, The tourists took along complete camping outfits and were accompanied by their own brass band. Another motorcycle event which is creating much interest among Kansas enthusiasts is a proposed Fourih of July race meet at Dodge City. This is being prometed by the Shore Grass club in connection with the Dodge City Auto and Commercial ciubs. Motorcycle Aids Minister. Among the many ministers who find the motorcycle a valuable asset, is Rev. C. R. Carlin who serves two par- ishes—those of Dresden and Selden, Kansas. , The Rev. Mr. Carlin uses his motofeycle continuousiy in going back and forth between the two par- Mr. Carlin also found his mo- cle a source of great pleasure on a little vacation trip into the moun- tains this summer. He could spend but six days awav from home, but with the aid of his two-wheeler he wae able to spend practically every bit of this time out of doors. e trav- eled 600 miles, using exactly eight gal- lons of gasoline, An Alaska Motorcyclis The climate of Alaska is not very conducive to motorcycling. But there s one enthusfast in Fairbanks, Alas- ka, who is undaunted by the cold. Chris Lauridsen uses a motoreycle reguiarly, whenever the roads are at all passable. And now he is making a trip from his home to Seattle, Wash., expecting to cover the entire distance on his two wheeler with the exception of the ocean vovage from Valdez to Seattle, Long Distance Economy. The recent experience of RAy Hen- derson and Fred Schmid, of Portland, Ore., is an excellent example of the extreme economy of the motorcycle for long distance tours. These younz men rode their two-wheelers from Portland to San Francisco, a distance of 1,200 miles, over all kinds of roads. They spent three weeks on the trip and said that their total expenses, in- cluding hotel bills, amounted to only $66 each. English Endurance Run. English motorcyclists are so enthu- siastlc about the sport that they do not discontinue their endurance runs during the winter months at all. In e recent run from London to Exeter 216 riders participated. And in spite of the fact that the contestants encoun- tered all sorts of weather, including rain and hail, of the entrants completed the hours. Many women riders took part in the event, some of them as passen- gers, others riding their own machines, Finally Convinced. Though George W. Sawkins, a big retail grocer of Toledo, Ohio, contend- ed for a long time that it would be impossible for a motorcycle to take the place of his four horse-drawn de- livery wagons, he has now been con- vinced. 1t only teok a week's trial to prove to Mr. Sawkins that the mo- torcycle delivery van could easily re- place at least three of his wagons. The wagon he expects fo keep for REXALLS DEFEAT DANIELSON. in a Fast Game by Score of 34 to 16.

Outside of Harry Grant, and J. B. Marquis, both chaperoned by William Ziegler, there loom in the offering Ray Gilhooley, and Ralph Joyce. Againsi this quartet Detroit has only three cars, now building, and another one to offer, so that for inte- clty i championship honors the “big may yvet win out. Gilhooley, like Marguis, it is stated, ! is working over one of the Isottas that { raced last vear with such poor luck, due to their having been completed too Jate to permit of a final overhauling and testing In practice. Before the machine in question had approached { the sixty mile mark, it bad shook its gasoline tank loose from its moorings, breaking the feed line, and making further progress impossible. The oil line, too, had become disconnected, 80 that burned out burnings would soon have seen its finish, anyway, as in the case of one of its mates. With the remedying of a few defects such as these, Gilhooley expects to have a machine that will step along with the best of them. If his auguries are cor- rect, he should be heard from. As a driver Gilhooley has the repu- tation of a daredevil extraordina: De Palma says of him that is the only steersman he really ever feared, for th simple reason he could never teil ! what he was going to do next. He is the Cobb of the speed game, always pulling the unexpected, whether it is going through a fence or breezinx home & winner through a sudden spurt. At Wilkes-Barre one time, in a dirt track contest, De Palma sar Gilhooley suddenly shot to the front at such a dizzy clip that all he left was a vacum. The next instant seem- ingly disdainful of the turn, he crash- ed torough thesticks and into a clo- ver fleld beyond. Everything had been sacrificed to the thrill of the moment. Such stunts as these have earned G hooley the reputation of betng the worst speed flend in America. He eats it. Joyce is a comparatively sonage in the speed game, without experience. With minor per- but vet not a car as in almost any kind of Last year his proposed mount set a new European road racing record at for almost a whole day racing, doing the last lap in 82.5 time, so that it must be figured on all the way. “Barney” Oldfleld, the veteran rac- ing pilot, will drive in a Vanderbilt cup race for the first time on Febru- ary 21, his mount being entered by George' R. Bentel of Los Angeles. Al- though Oldfield has driven more races on tracks and speedways than any other driver, he has never been a con- tender for 'the Vanderbilt cup. He will drive in the grand prize race as well. Barney has been seen in several road races on the beautiful Santa Mo course in Califor upon which the great classics are to be staged this season. It will be the first | tme that the Vanderbilt has been run on the Pacific coast Many race followers on the coast nave picked either Spencer Wishart or Oldfied as the winners. are known to possess great speed and the w other is due to show up in front. In the Corona, Ca., race last fall Oldfield drove a Mercer, a duplicate of the one he will drive in the Vanderbilt and grand prize, for 180 miles at an aver- age speed of slightly over 80 miles an_hour. The Santa Monica race course claimed to be the fastest in the world. 1t measurea 9.4011 miles to the lap, is macadam throughout, and skirts the ocean part of the distance. It was on this course that Tetzlaff made the official road record by averaging 78.72 miles per hour for 303 miles. Basket League at the Y. M. C.
