Goes Mile in 1:58 1-4—“Pop” Geers Drivu Single G. Mile Under Two Minutes in Two Successive Heats—Final Decision on Application of Work or Fight Law to Baseball Today. Toledo, O., July 23.—Worma's records were shattered on the new one-mile track here today in the inaugural of Grand Circuit racing in Toledo. Miss Harris M., in the Iree for ail pace, went the first mile in 1.58 1-4, the fastest mile ever covered by a pacing mare. In the second heat of that event Edward ¥. (Pop) Geers drove Single G. a mile in 139 1-2, giving that horse a new record and establish- ing a record for the fastest two paced heats. Geers aiso drove Single G., the winner of the third heat, and the race, in 1.59 5-4. In Miss Harris M.'s heat she travel- ed the first quarter in 30 seconds, the half in 39 seconds, and last quarter in 24 1-4 seconds. Her feat was the second fastest mile ever paced, Direc- tum holding the record of 1.58, made at Columbus in 1914 The second heat was the second time in his career that Geers had ridden a | mile under two minutes. William, the worl champion' pacer, took the lead in the first heat and held it to the stretch. He was unequal to the dash and finished fourth, In two of the other races the favor- ites won while the talent was jolted in the third. Miss Harris M.'s accomplishment in covering the last quarter in 24 1-4 s onds is probably the fastest quarter ever covered by a harness horse. Summaries: Free for all pace, purse $1, Single G.

For a good many seasons the laugh has been on Bodie. He has been made the butt of column conductors and a standing joke among baseball writers through- out the country, but particularly in the big leagues, where joshing would Sox it didn't take the scribes in Chi- ruin many a player. ‘Whe Ping broke in with the White cago long to find out that Ping’s stock in trade was a mean bat, and that let him out. Ping wasn't what might be called a split-second thinker. He wasn't any too proficinet in covering ground, either. They used to say that Ping *could cover more ground than any other fielder in the big show: —sitting down. But with all of the joshing Ping went on in his fence-busting way, Turned to hammer to daylights out of .the pitchers. He made more work for the jground-keepers in repairing fences ln the Coast League than any other player who ever took picks on a fast one in his fayorite groove. So finally Ping came back.e Connie Mack believed that Bodie was not handled as well as he might have been when a member of the Sox So he brought Ping back to the big| show, and his record with the Ath- letics last season shows pretty well He slammed the ball around to the tune of .291 and fielded well enough to suit Connie. : Now Bodie is a member of the Yanks. He has always wanted tol hook on with a New York club, and the change in ciubs this spring is making a new ball player out of him, as a change of clubs.often does. Neither Shrubb Nor Longboat Dying News dispatches from Canada. pecu- liarly enough, carry denials that two famous long distance runners of a few vears ago, Al Shrubb, the wonderful | Englishman, and Tom Longboat, the great Onondaga Indian marathon run- ner, are dying. Longboat has been up to a week ago, with the Canadian forces on the western front in France and reported in good health. Various rumers have had Him dying in several Another story was to the fect that he had joined the Amer; army. Teddy Wood, another famous runner and holder of the world's rec- ord for fifteen miles, met his death in the same line of army work that the| Indian is doing. This story about Shrubb comes from Canada: “Shrubb is a long way from being measured for a wooden kimona. He is so busy these days ploughing seeding his farm near Bowman- | ville that he could not spare time to attend the annual meeting of the Toronto Bowling club, of which he is vice, president. He Wwrote Tomm: Ryan, telling him that he was too b watching the sun come up to told him to go ahead with the ten pin stuff. He was healthy as a two- year-old then, so it is a cinch that he not on life’s last lap today as the!} New York dispatch would have the | fans believe. Longboat right now is serving as a “runner” with the Canadian expedi- tionary forces. He has been in the; thick of the danger right along. and has been knocked over by the concus- sion of bursting shells twice, but suf- fered no hurt on either occasion. Ac- coréing to a letter just received Long- boat craves to do two things before the Huns *“get” him. ‘T'd like to win a military medal to go with my track prizes,” said Tom, “and I would also like to meet the man who impersonated | me when enlisting in the United Stw.es» army. Believe me. he’s a pretty mean individual.” Longboat is said to be particularly serious about winning a war honor. He is reported as doing fine work in the face of intense dan- ger. The Best Shortstop? The spectacular playing of Donie Bush of the Detroit Tigers during the games against the Yankees at the Polo grounds, has revived that old argument as to the best. shortstop in| the American league. There is a wide difference of opinion on this subject due to the fact that the league is particularly well supplied with great shortstops. ew York fans cannot be- lieve that any shortstop can play a better defensive game, day after day, than Roger Peckinpaugh of the Hug- gins troupe. Boston fans rave about Everett Scott, a marvel in grace and in one-hand playing. Philadelphia rooters regard Joe Dugan as the great- | est find made by Connie Mack since the days of Collins. On the western wing of the league the honors are claimed in different cities for Chap- man, Weaver and Bush. Garber of the Browns may have his supporters after he has established himself. Take your pick; they all shine. Lee Fohl Once a Boxer. Lee Fohl, manager of the Indians, doesn’t look liké a boxer, fans, but he knows more about the hit and miss art than you think. Lee loves a good boxing bout and has been known to travel a considerable distance to see a the bottom of his love for the ring game, and when a couple of the boys put it up to him he fessed up that he had gone in for the sport in his younger days. Fohl engaged in a number of bouts at Pittsburgh, Home- stead and New Kensington, Pa. He still knows how to handle his dukes. Mack’s New Stars. Philadelphia fans are beginning to enthuse Connie Mack’s new stars. George Burns, the big first baseman, who has succeeded Stuffy Mclnnis, has set Quakerville on fire with his great hitting. He made two home runs in one game recently and is the Athletics’ clean up man. Scott Perry’s magni- ficent pitching is another reason for joy at Shibe Park. Joe Dugan, the Young shortstop from Holy Cross; Morris Shannon, the second baseman, and Catcher Perkins also have made themgelves solid. Mack has built up a fine ball club at last and his former traducers now are showering him with praise. Shine Ball in National? Bennie Kauff, when he fanned with the bases filled, one day before he left, ‘went back to the Giants’ dugout convinced that Pitcher Hogg had fool- “shine ball” 1If this assertion is true Hogg is the first Na- tional League pitcher who has been charged with copying the mysterious delivery of Eddie Cicotte of the White Sox. Cicotte concealed his methods so cleverly that he dfied detection. If Hogg is using the “shine ball” he is getting away with it because the um- pires and the opposing players cannot discover how he turns the trick. Hogg, by the way. has plenty of nerve and probably will remam in major league company. Duke Farrell Now U. S. Marshal. Charles 'A. Farrell of Marlboro, Mass., noted major league baseball player and known on and off the dia- mond as “Duke” Farrell, has been ap- pointéd a deputy United States mar- shal by a United States Marshal Mit- chell of Boston. For the last three years Farrell has coached the New York team of the traveling with baseball' teams meeting countless people will be a val- uable aid to him in his new work. SPORTING NOTES Billy DeFoe, fighter, has now joined the navy and will fight de foe. Messrs. Porto and Lindsey stars of the State Bowling tournament will soon be bowling over the Germans. Star ball players look the same as anyone else to Uncle Sam when it comes to filling the ranks of his new army. Grover Alexander was the first big star to be drafted and now Benme Kauff will help lick the Kaiser. Jack Adams, once with the Giants, is the star backstop of the Phillies this year. Moran says.he is as good as Killefer. Why uot try and sell him to President Weeghman, old top, he likes expensive players. Frank Moran, the heavyweight. blew into New York yesterday and announc- ed that he was “through with the ring.” The funny part of it is that Frank doesn’t seem able to start an argu- ment with anybody about it. Larry Gardner is one of the real veterans of the -American League, but there are no evidences of the fact in his all around play. He still is an |artist around third base and is al- ways dangerous at the bat. H. C. Barstow with a percentage of 990 is the leading trapshooter in the ate, according to the latest averages ued by the Interstate association. ¥. ). Troeh of Vancouver, Wash., with a percentage of 9763 is the leader for tiie entire country. Jack Coombs, veteran pitcher of tie Dodgers and a former star of the old Athletics has told friends that this vear will be' his last season in base- ball. He did not say what his future plans are, but he is known to have interests in Palestine, Tex. probably demand his attention. Christian Christensea, well known in sporting circles as the ‘“‘Durable ' has departed from Chicago to: to take up his duties as pl cal instructor in the Y. M. C. service.

FIELD A MIXED BAG Paragraphs That Will Interest All Sportsmen, Especially Those Who Shoot at the Traps and in the Field. By Peter P. Carney Editor National Sports Syndicate. From the Field. Florida has shortened the deer and game season by 10 days. California now includes the black- tailed jackrabbit as a predatory ani- mal. In ‘Wisconsin automobiles may be d when it is believed they con- tain game illegally in possession. 4 It is now illegal to Kkill or pursue birds or animals by the aid or use of an automobile in New Jersey. About 12,000 deer killed in Cali- fornia in 1917. This total furnished | somewhere near 450 tons of fresh meat. A few more than 8000 deer were Kkill- ed in 19 Pennsylvania collected $314,479 for hugting licenses in 1917 at $1 per li- cense. California collected 275,000 from its field hunters and New York was next in line. Hunters contribute a neat sum—millions of dollars to the State treasuries—every year for their ! sport. Iowa is to have a model game farm conducted under the supervision of State Game Warden Hinshaw. The farm will start out with 20 acres of land and will be enlarged’from time to time. Sportsmen in Arizona suggest a closed season for deer and declaring an open season for antelope. Deer are very scarce, while antelope, protected for 15 years, are plentiful. There are more than 100 duck shoot- ing clubs along the banks of the San Francisco and San Pablo Bay They are all kinds and sizes from the small preserve and shack to the elegantly appointed clubhouses with hundreds of members and thousands of acres. Forest fires burned 962,000 acres of National Forest lands in 1917 and caused a loss of $1,358,600 to the Gov- ernment in timber forage and young growth. From the Traps. The Columbus Cup, given by the Chamber of Commerce of Colum- bus, Ga., will be an addiional trophy at the Grand American Handicap this year. More than 100,000 men who have learned to shoot at the traps—many of them classed among the experts— are now members of Uncle Sam’s All- American shooting team. Now is the time for every one to do his or her best—not bit—for the Unit- ed States. If you don't know how, then Learn To Shoot. The straighter Am- ericans shoot the quicker the war will be over. The American Amateur Trapshoot- ers’ Association is showing new signs of life. The only national sport ‘that hasn’t a national organization of its devotees is trapshooting. There is a place for the A. A. T. A. if the officers’ show the proper zeal. It isn’t likely that there will be a shoot for the championship of the At- lantic Fleet, U. S. N., this year—unless it is held in Berlin. At all of the trapshooting tourna- ments in which he will act as cashijer during 1918 Luther Squire, the Cin- cinnati, 0., professional, will distribute War Savings Stamps instead of the added cash. Announcemersof this will be made on the programs. This idea of Mr. Squire’s is an excellent one, and trapshooters will be glad to aid the cause, Try guns are now carried by nearly all of the professional shooters. and no one has to purchase a gun in these days unless it fits.
