Oscar Gardner, who is to box Terry Mc- Govern before the National Athletic Club on the 30th of this month, began training at Croll's Gardens, Alameda, yesterday, under the direction of Joe Bernstein Gardner and Bernstein will box and wr tle and do plenty of road work. Oscar is confident that he can defeat McGoveri. He claims he was cheated out of a victory when he met McGovern in New York a year ago. He said he knocked Terry down in the first round with a left hook and the Brooklyn wonder remained down fou: teen seconds. Gardner says that when he knocked McGovern off his feet he was close to the ropes and in order to give McGovern a chance to rise to his feet e stepped over his prostrate body. McGov- ern grabbed his leg and held on until his | brain cleared. Gardner says he was so disgusted at the treatment accorded him that he lost all heart and McGovern hal no trouble putting him away in threc rounds.

PART IN A CYCLING EVENT AGAIN, AS HE IS THE VICTIM OF A WHO WILL NEVER TAKE | i * D O. KRAGNESS, the famous Olympic Club roadrider, will never participate in a cyeling event again. He is afflicted with a “bicycle heart,” and his physi- cian has informed him that it would be suicidal for him to mount the silent stced again. This will be disappointing news to devotees of the wheel and especially to his clubmates, who have pinned their faith on him in many an exciting inter- club contest. For the last two weeks Kragness has been absent from his dutles as an employ. of the Olympic Club on account of ness. He has been resting quietly at San Rafael and as soon as he recovers will return to work. His fllness was brought on_ by too close application to cycling. He was an incessant rider and was always striving for records.

Hayes' pay colt Royal Vic- tor won the Tennessee Derby at .Mnnt— gomery Park from John F. Schorr's bay filly Lady Schorr, with George ‘Long’s bay colt Gaheris third. The time, 1:57, was & very creditable performance. The Schorr stable had named three starters, but Alard Scheck and Joe Frey were scratched and Farmer Bennett was added to keep Lady Sehorr company. Sid- dons, The Commander and Dick Burgess were also scratched, leaving only contest- ants. The Schorr pair were held at the prohibitive odds of 1 to 3, while 8 to 1 was laid against Royal Victor. After two false breaks they were sent away to an excellent start, with Royal Vietor a head in front of Farmer Bennett and the others close up. Farmer Bennett and Lady Schorr raced to the front and, with Royal Victor a length away, made the running to the stretch. At this point Winkfield sent the Hayes colt up to the leaders, and in the run home he challenged Lady Schorr. J. Woods on the latter went to the whip, but his efforts were of no avail, Royal Victor, well ridden by Wink- field, winning handily by three parts of a length. Gaheris made up a lot of ground in the stretch and finished third. Results: First race, six_furlongs—Sevoy won, The Rush second, W. J. DeBoe third.

X3 needed to make fast time on the wheel, Kragness forged to the front and was conceded to be the best roadrider in the country. His most notable achievement in roadriding was made on June 11, 189%9. On that day he lowered the American rec- ora for 200 miles by four minutes. He cov- ered the distance in two hours and thirty- seven minutes less time than any other California rider. He covered the first 100 miles in five hours and fifteen minutes, and the “double century” in eleven hours and thirty-seven minutes. Since then Kragness has been making record rides to and from San Jose and has represented the winged “O” in a score of road events. In almost every race he entered Kragness brought his ciub colors to the front and generally distanced ali competitors. He was always a member of the team entered by the Olympic Club in the annual 100-mile relay race and was usually given the hardest ten miles to “negotiate,”” because of his great strength and speed on the wheel. @ e el e @ DRESSMAKERS STRIKE AFTER FORMING UNION Throw Down Their Needles Because One of Their Number Gets Her Discharge.
