Freddie Rieger has made a fine rec- ord as a pitcher in the Eastern asso- ciation and, in fact, all the time that he has played baseball in_Connecticut. He hooked up with the New London club upon its entrance into the Eas- tern association in the season of 1913, coming in with Manager Jack Burns, under whom he had worked as a member of the New London _Inde- pendents the season before. He was with New London until late that sea- son, when he was traded to Hartford for Pitcher Bill Powers, and has been with the Senators up to the, present time. He has been up with the lead- ing pitchers of the league during both seasons and has always been consid- ered as good as any hurler in the cir- cuit. The Miracle Man of Cuba. “Jack Curley is the King of Cuba. He's got the whole island hypnotized. He’s right next to the president and can have whatever he wants. When Jess Willard cabled from El Paso that he would not start for Cuba until he had $4,000, Jack raised that amount in ust three hours among the Havana otels and cabled it to Willard. Cuba calls Curley the “Miracle Man”, and they’ve got the right dope on big Jack.” Trio of Hikers. Alfred A.

He allowed one hit and struck out six men in that time. White Sox players are rapidly com- mg to recognize Clarence Rowland as 1 regular manager.

English Champ Showed Better Form Ahearn Won Popular Decision Over Jimmy Clabby in Six Round Bout—Excelled Clabby in All Rounds Except the First—Ahearn Was Slow Philadelphia, March 17.—Young Ahearn, middleweight champlon of England, won the popular decision over Jimmy Clabby of Hammond, Ind., aspirant for the title in that class, in their six round bout here tonight. With the exception of the first round in which Clabby opened a gash over Ahearn’s eve, the English champion excelled. Ahearn was rather slow, getting started and Clabby, by his fast work, was entitled to the opening round. Aft- er that the British champion went better and at times made his oppon- ent miss badly. Both offensively and defensively Ahearn showed the best form, and his jabs while in the clinch- es apparently bothered Clabby very much. PLAYED WITH TWO WORLD’S CHAMPIONS Evers and Dougherty Only Players Who Were with Different Champion- ship Ball Teams. Johnny Evers, captain and second baseman of the Boston Braves, and Pat Dougherty, the old Boston and Chicago outfielder, are the only base- ball players who have played with two different world’'s championship teams. Dougherty played with the Boston Americans when they won the world’s championship and he was with the Chicago Americans when that at First but Gained Speed. beatable combination, although far the inferior_in mere mechanical ability of many wof the teams they so easily over- came.

Chicago Lightweight Knocked Robi- deau Down Tkree Times For the Count of Nine, Philadelrhia, March 17.—Charlie White, the Chicago lightweight, stop- ped Sam Robideau of Philadelphia, in the first round of a scheduled six round bout here tonight. After Robi- deau had received a terrific uppercut on the point of the jaw and had been knocked down three times for the count of nine, the Philadelphian’s seconds, fearing he was in a helpless condltion, stopped the fight. It was ‘a fast fight up to the time it was stopped. Robideau was setting the pace and had White apparently guessing how to avoid a Stiff left jab. They clinched and at the break White kept his arm arcund Robidau's neck and struck him a terrific blow with his right wkich landed on the point of Robideaw's jaw.

Evers played with the Cubs when they won the title in 1907 and 1908 and equaled Dougherty’s feat by playing with the Boston Braves In vear's series. h Devore, the Boston substitute outfielder, took part in world's series with two different teams, but until the Braves won this year he was never 2 world’s champion. And this year he got _into the series only in the ca- pacity of a pinch hitter. Evers' record is the more remark able because there was a space of six years between his two championship connections. In seven years almost any baseball player is expected to slow down and yet seven years after playing with his first world’s cham- pionship team the irrepressible oJhn- ny is found as the mainstay of an en- tirely different team, ers’ record is also unusual in that he is still able to play great baseball despite his unfortunate experiences as a manager. Few players have been able to maintain their standard of playing after once attempting _the managerial end of the zame. Jake ahl, who led the championship Red Sox team in 1912, was one of the few players whose disastrous experience as a manager did not have a bad -ef- fect on his playing. And at that Stahl made his “come back” more as a man- ager than as a player. e was still a good player, however, when the Red Sox played tme Giants two years ago. The names of the great players who have started to go back after failing managers are many. One of the hest examples is that of Hal Chase, the former Yankee first baseman, who seems never to have been the same brilliant plaver since his brief attempt to_guide the Yankees. Evers is one of the kind of players upor whom ‘failure seems to make no impression. If he fails once he is ready to try again and keep on try- ing. It was just this spirit which he seems to have imparted to the whole Boston team which made ffiem an un Johnny Kilbane, Featherweight Champ Displayed His Superiority in Six Round Bout.

YALE CREW CAPTAIN FORCED TO QUIT. Physician Forbids Captain Denegre to Do Any More Rowing. Thomas Bayne Denegre of New Or- leans, captain of the Yale crew, has been forbidden by his physicians to do any more rowing, and is out of the boat for good. He has resigned as FINANGIAL AND COMMERCIAL SMALL DEALING IN STOCKS. But the Undertone of the Market Was Consistently Firm. New York, March 17.—Dealings in stocks today showed the smallest total of any recent period, but the undertone was consistently firm, except for some irregularity at the outset and toward the close. Reading, which was the primary cause of the previous day’s unsettlement, because of fears of a re- duced dividend, rose a full point and rested at that level. In the final hour, when word came from Philadelphia that the regular dividend had been declared, Reading rose a further frac- tion, but recorded a slight net loss, Earlier in the session, Lehigh Valley, which is controlled by Reading in. terests, rose substantially on mainten- ance of its dividend and other high priced shares also evinced a tendency to harden. In point of fact, however, trading was devoid of actual signi- ficance, the only noteworthy changes occurring in the semi-active or high- ly speculative issues. Among these were Laclede Gas, of St. Louis, Pitts- burgh Coal preferred. Pacific [Mail, General Motors and Sears-Roebuck, all of which declined one to two points, while Mexican Petroleum, American Beet Sugar and Bethlehem Steel moved as much in the other direction. Metal and allied stocks failed to reflect to any appreciable extent the more favorable advices, such as fur- ther large sales of copper for export, an advance in the price of lead and resumption of dividends by the Rio Tinto company which has the support of the foremost financial interests in London and Paris.

The opinion of his physicians, how- ever, settles the matter beyond any question, and Denegre's days of row- ing are over, Denegre has had a strange career in rowing. He was elected captain at the end of his sophomore year, a great honor, and last year started in to pick his crew. About the middle of the season it became quite apparent that he was the weakest man in the boat, and after talking the matter over with Guy Nickalls, Denegre got out of the boat.

Historic Two Year Old Fixture Likely to Be Worth $25,000 to the Winner. Although it has not been definitely decided just where the Futurity will be run this year, it will have a greater value than in 1914, and in all proba bility will bring about a better contest. Victor Schaumberg, secretary of the Coney Island Jockey club, said Tues- dey that the 1915 running would be worth approximately $25,000 to the wirner, while when Trojan won for the Quincy stable last year its value ws $22,100. This is a conservative est mate of the value of the race, and it is probable that it will reach a better total. Although there were 509 mares nom- inated for the Futurity in 1915, only 135 remain on the eligible list. This is accounted for by the fact that 1913 was a particularly disastrous year at most of the thoroughbred breeding es- tablishments in Kentucky. Many of the ost noted prized matrons “missed” or lipped” and there was a greater per- centage of losses than in almost any previous year. In the 135 still eligible most of the big racing establishments are repre- sented. SHARPE PICKS ALL COLLEGIATE BASKETBALL TEAM Yale Player Selected for Right For- ward. Two Cornell players, with Yale, Princeton and Columbia, each fur. nishing one, make up the first all- collegiate basketball team selected by Dr. Albert H. Sharpe, the Cornell bas- ketball coach. Cn 'his second team Dr. Sharpe puts two Yale players and gives Colum- bia, Pennsylvania and Princeton one place each. The teams selected by the Cornell coach are as follows First team—Brown, Cornell, left forward; Weiner, Yale, right forware McTigue, Princeton, center; Lee (Ca; tain.) Columbia, left guard; Jandorof, Cornell, right guard. Second _team—Kinney, Yale, left forward; Calder, Columbia, right for- ward; Seelbach (Captain.) Pennsyl- vania, center; Arnold, Yale, left guard, Haas, Princeton, right guerd, With regard to the season just closed Dr. Sharpe said: ‘Seldom, if ever, has the team which scored a few more points than its nearest rival been able to claim a clear champion- ship. Such was Yale's good fortune this year and she is to be congratu- lated on winning a championship when the competition was so great. “Every team in the league had a chance to win or to spoil the other fellow’s chamnionship aspirations. As a matter of history it should be re- corded that our champion aspirations received a severe blow when four of our basketball squad were unable to keep up in thelr studies and as one of them was as good a guard as there was in_the league his loss was se- verely felt. 3 HARVARD WILL HAVE SWIMMING POOL Captain Fullerton Writes to Yale for Information Regarding the Carne- gie Pool. <aptain Fullerton of the Harvard swimming team, wrote to Instructor Max Schwartz and Manager Mayer, of the Yale Swimming association Mon- day saying that Harvard intended to build a swimming pool or natatorium and wanted some information in re- gard to the Carnegie swimming pool at Yale, which in a number of respects is regarded as the finest in the world. Information is desired as to the ex- pense and income of the pool and the way in which it is managed. The Har- vard watermen are obliged to use the swimming pool at Brookline as there is no pool at Cambridge. The Harvard swimming team of this season does not rank with teams of the larger colleges in the east but a number of swimmers are being developed there and it is ex- pected that Harvard will have a good team next season and engage in a meet with Yale, There are some pools larger than the one here but none has as good accommodations for contestants or spectators and the system for filling the pool with clear water cannot be excelled. Mr. Schwartz and Manager Mayer will prepare somc _statistics about the Carnegie pool and forward them to the Harvard management. Young Giants Challenge.

Originator of the plan is A. C. New- by, a_director of the speedway, whose idea it is to stage a contest such as has never been seen in the world be- fore. The race is to be invitational, entry being limited to makes of cars hav- ing won previous 500 mile contests. To date four such makes are eligible, with possibly a fifth after the next contest has been run. Entering probably five cars each, this would make a field of twenty-five machines, the absolute cream of the racing world, with the pick of racing drivers. A qualifying speed of 90 m. p. h. for twenty laps of the speedway is to be necessary, and the race is tostart at 6 a. m. Drivers are to take tricks during the contest of 250 miles each, two drivers to a car. If therace goes through, it will easily be the greatest ever run. say racing experts informed of the plan. The secret of Darius Resta’s bril- liant driving in the recent Vanderbilt an” Grand Prize races at an Fran- cisco, both of which he won. handily, is out. It involves the culmination of as pretty a romance as ever em- braced two continents. The average owner of motor trucks does not realize that consistent care of the vehicle is a vital point in the economy of their use.

But if a truck is driven without any load at 20 miles hour, remembering that the truck ights more or less than 60 per cent. of the gross rated load, it is a cer- tainty that the truck will wear out long before it pays for itself in serv- ic explain should be the Tt is not belleved that the average driver fully understands how detri- mental it is to the life of a truck to drive it at high speed when it is emp- Ty The ene: stored in a moving mass responds to the rule, which may for convenience be expressed as fo o he energy stored in a moving mass is proportional to the weight in pounds multiplied by the square of the speed. n other words, if the speed is doubled the strain is multi- | plied by four and the life of all parts materially diminished.” Work has been started on the Mys- tic-Stonington shore road and through traffic should go from Groton to West- erly cia either Mys to the left after crossing M 3 brid:; and take the Hinckley Hill road to Westerly, which turns to the right about two miles north of Mystic, or else reach the Hinckley Hill road from Groton via Old Mystic and then about a mile south turn to the left. The Shore road from Niantic to Lit- tle Boston through ndnan Woods is under construction, and traffic should follow the main trunk line between Old_Lyme and New London, turning at_Flanders if bound for Niantic. Both of these roads are passable at the driver’s rist, but are better avoid- ed. The use of aluminum by automokile manufacturers has become pretty gen- eral in the last few years, but there is only one company that uses cast aluminum exclusively in building touring and enclosed bodies. Its use, at first, was confined to dashes seats and doors, as it was__thought that the pure aluminum could not be cast thin; and adding of other metals made it too heavy. Later experiments showed, however, that pure aluminum could be successfully cast in any size and as thin as one-eight of an inch or thinner. This made it possible to make bodies lighter than the sheet metal construction by casting and this kind of body was found to have many advantages over any other material On account of having a rigid sur- face, they will not dent easily In handling—an objectionable feature of bodies made out of sheet metal. There is also an increase factor of safety to the occupants to be considered. In case of accidents and smashups, a cast aluminum body will not crush as easily as a sheet metal body and is thus much safer to ride in. An enclosed car was recently sent to the factory for repairs. The front end of the car had been run into by a lo- comotive and was completely demol- ished up to the driver's seat. The body back of the hood was not dam- red at all, and though the for the impact was enough to wreck front part of the car, the tonneau remained unbroke Barney Oldfield won the 300 mile St 1l time arison 4.24.43 cars started and twelve finished.
