Dock, Norwich, 55, East River oW !qu, D.c. s—complete amal- gation of ‘the Natjonal and American Trotting Associations cannot be ef- fected until the congress of the two associations meet next December, but they now are operating under identi- cal rules,’ the National Association was mfl at its meeting here today by Pl:d t' J. C. Welty, of Canton, The question is largely a matter of adjusting” _overhead - expense, Mr. Welty said. He pointed out that there were only about forty or fiftv one- mile tracks in the country, while there were 1,500 half-mile tracks. The association voted to expel three members” for violations of rules. Richard Squires and Belcher’ Squires of Hartford, Conni; two of those ex- pelled, were charged with having dyed black the mare Edna L. and entered her in.a 2:18 class race at Windsor, Ontario, although she held a 2:09% record. F, E. Holliday of Warren; Pa., was charged with having entered the mare Emeline Dillon in National Association’ meetings under the name of “Nette B.” AMERICAN TEAM IS LEADING ON POINTS Madison Square Garden, New York, Dec. 4—When the riders in the six- day bicycle race had completed one- third of the contest here at midnight only .one team, Drobach and Verri, had dropped out. Thirteen of the sur- viving teams were tied, having cov- ered 871 miles, one lap, with the trailing pair, the Bowker brothers, one lap behind. The record for 48 hours, made 'by Goullet and Grenda, four years ago, is 1,011 miles, one lap. tance made by the contestants as the French system of scoring by points in the sprints will determine the -winners of the cash prizes this| year. Up-to-date the American team, McNamara and Magin, are the lead- ing point winners, having scored eight firsts in the fifteen sprints decided this afternoon and tonight. Madden and Corry are second in the point score, with Grenda and Hill and Law- rence and Hanley next in order. EXPELLS HORSE AND OWNER FROM AMER. TROTTING ASS'N Chicago, Dec. 3.—“Emaline Dillon,” a pacing mare that has been raced | under the name of “Nettie H.”, and its | owner, F. E. Holliday, of San Jose, Calif,, were expelled from the Ameri- can Trotting Association circuit by the board of appeals tcday. The mare,| according to W. P. Ijams of Terre Haute, Ind,, president of the associa- tion, participated in many races last season under the fictitious name. The patronage of the 1918 racing sea- son was larger than in previous years, it was announced. o LEADERS COVER 733 MILES 9 LAPS IN FORTY HOURS New, Dec. 3.—At 4 p. m., the end| of the fortieth hour, the relative pos- itions of the teams were unchanged. The leaders had covered 739 miles, 9 laps. The record for the same period | made by Bgg and Yerri in 1914 was| 844 miles, 9 laps.

B THIS SHOULD BE" QUITE SOME GAME Joseph Howard Berry, one of the greatest athletes in the history of sports at the . university of Pennsyl- vania, is coming back to Philadelphia for a one-day act. Berry, now a lieutenant in infantry and the captain of the Camp Hancock football team, will bring his unde- feated service, eleven. to - Philadelphia for a game with League Island Satur- day. It will be the army and navy benefit of the wounded soldiers. All the profits' will be turned over to the recreation center at League Island, and they will go to a general fund for our crippled heroes returning from The arrange- ment and management of the game have been placed in the hands of Sam- have been placed in thHe hands of mm uel J. Dallas ,the newly-elected pres- ident of the national “A. A. U." Al- ready Mr. Dallas has formulated plans for the contest and he intends to make it the most attractive game of the season. The Camp Hancock team has not lost a game this year and it has built up a great reputation below the Ma- son and Dixon line. Berry’s aggrega- tion has beaten Camp Gordon, which was led by Everett Strupper. last y;ar"s star quarterback at Georgia “Lech.”. LEAGUES NOW PLAN *TO HOLD JOINT SESSION Having squelched the plan of the insurgent contingent of organized baseball to.dissolve the national com- mission and name former President William Howard ,Taft as a ‘“one-man court of last resort” without the necessary authority Ban Johnson is expected to act favorably on the sug- gestion that the American and Nz tional leagues hold a joint session in New York next week. The National has asked for the meeting and the majority of the club owners in the two leagues are understood to be in favor of it. The ‘refusal of Mr. Taft to consider the offer made him by Harry Hemp- stead of New York, and Harry Fra- zee, of Boston, caused no surprise. It would have been surprising had he accepted it after the row it kicked up among the club owners of the Amer- ian league. The elimination of Mr. Taft. however, leaves the quéstion re- garding the. formation of a commis- sion still unsettled, and if Johnson almost sure to have something im- portant to say as to how the com- mission will be constituted. It would be just like Johnson insist that Herrmann be retained chairman of the commission, and if he decides to stand by Hermann there is no power ‘to remove the Cin- the place. Despite rumors to the contrary, it is virtually assured that Johnson will remain at the head of the American league, even though his powers may be curtailed. but as president of the league he will represent his organiza- to as MARKET ACTIVE ANT BROAD. New York, Dec. 3.—Trading in stocks today was moderately active and broad, the movement tending vpward until the final hour, when prices reacted one to three points among rails, oils and specialties. The one striking exception to the general strength of the fcrenoon and mid-session was furnished by Marine preferred, which was under constant pressure at an extreme reversal of 5 1-2 peints, only part of which was regained. Investment rails failed to extend their advance of yesterday. displaying occasional restraint, probably because of the conflicting opiniors prevalent regarding the governmer.t's a!utude towards “modified private onnerslnp Steels and the entire metal division were firm to strong, their improvement beirg explained later by the action of the war industries Loard, which fixed domestic prices for pig tin, thereby offering hope of further stabilization of affiliated commodities.

Recently we turned out an article discussing the sighting radius of the shotgun and gave the answer. Here is anotker conundrum. It is written by the same proressional who penned the first article. This “pro” by the way is one of the best all-round shcts in the 'world. At that breakfast in John Wertz's real estate office in Chappell, Neb., when the question, “What is the sighting radius of the shotgun?” was asked and answered, another question was propounded which seemed at first to have but one answer, ‘Here is the question: 5 “What advantage, it any, would re- sult from an extra fast falling ham- mer in a trapgun?”’ t was at first unanimously decided that, theorectically, vou could reduce your lead on quartering targets. However, was that the correct answer. Would no: the gun with an extra fast falling hammer, rsaily require, theorectically at least, a greater lead on quartering targets? Now, everyone aspirin. proficient in trapshooting times without number, too, to “follow through ing targets, and the best shots do so. This “follow through” process gives most of the' lead requirred to break fast quartering {argets saccessfully. Well, then, wouldn’t the shooter whose gun had a hammer with a long. to become been told 1 rightly, on quarter- clow , sweep ‘‘follow through” farther; then the shooter whose gun had a short, quick stroke, because more time would elapse between the time the frigger was pulled and the firing of the sun? And would not this allow the form- er to hold to his target cleser when he pulled the trigger? This dope is simply ha course. and of no However, it may of the worry occasioned v the slow falling hammer in the zun he is row trying to break targets with. Let him -remember, tho that 3 certain gma- teur, who is considered by many as the peer of all handicap shooters, and shoots a gun equipped with one of those slow, long sweep hammers, and did the bammer in his gun fall twice as fast he would probably shoot just as_well. For the shooter who stops his gun s the fast hammer is the plitting, of correct do 'd possibly hold a litJle » man shoot- ing in his best.form neel not worry about the speed of his hammer. SPORTING NOTES. The Armont pacer, Killarney, 2.19%, trained at Readville the past summer by L. H. Prigge, who has recently taken up quarters at the Rockville (Ct.) track, has been sold to Fred Chamberlain of Northampton. The skeleton of Axworthy, the world famous trotter, was shipped from Lexington, Ky., yesterday for New York to be mounted.. Tt will then be placed in the National Museum of His- tory. Lee Axworthy wag the sire of many horses that have already earned high honors in the trotting world. ‘Walter B. Miller, the New York sportsman, lost one of his best brood mares when the famous Ivory Bells died in Lexington, Ky., Sunday. Ivory Bells was the dam of Old Rosebud, which won many stake races up to several years ago. The mare was worth $25,000. Two officers who are members of Camp Upton’s football team were so seriously injured in the game against the Camp Dix eleven at Newark on Saturday that they had to be left in the hospital. They are Lieut. Bart Carroll, the former Colgate star, who plays left end, and Lieut. James Mc- Mullen, the former Bates player, who is Upton's left halfback. No matter who owns the Boston Braves next year, the team will be formidable. Hank Gowdy, who will be a big drawing card, is coming back from France to resume his post as the Braves’' star catcher. Rabbit Ma- who is a coxwain on the battleship: Pennsylvania, also will be found at shortstop. The Braves will regain the services. of- Powell. .Kelly and Rettig, the outfielders, who en- listed last summer. Charley Herzog is out with his annual gnnouncement that he will not play ball again, but with Maranville back in the field Herzog will not be missed. King Football stepped down off the throne last Saturday amid the most surprising scenes of his annual au- tumnal reign. In New York Syra- cuse showed itself three touchdowns superior to the far heralded Rutgers eleven. - In Cleveland the great Pitts- burgh. team conqueror of Georgia Tech, was nosed out by the Cleveland Naval Reserves. Coupled with :the victories "of the Great Lakes Naval Training Station over Rutgers and Annapolis, and of Michigan’s triumph over Syracuse earlier in the season, the defeat of Pittsburgh by the Cleveland Tars leaves intersectional football honors of 1918 decidedly in favor of the West. Incidentally out of the Pittsburgh- Cleveland contest the South gets blamed for the wounds suffered inthe defeat of its pet and pride, - Georgia Tech, by the Panthers. The hero k‘ “Duke” Ducote of Alabama Poly. Last season, the Auburn, . Alabama player was heralded as the greatest player in the outh.: Southern ex- perts ranked Ducote even above the great Strupper of Georgia Tech. Though handicapped by a vastly ‘weaker team behind him than had Strupper, Ducote played a wonderful game. It was he who almost single- handed splintered the attack of Ohio State in the famous 0 to 0 tie be- tween the Western champions and Auburn. Frank J.
