LAST NIGHT’S HIGH SCORES Hawthornes -- American Woollen Circh ‘Three good scores were rolled Inst night in The Bvening World tourna- ment at Amann & Treiss's alleys, Fifty- fifth street and Third avenue, and had the Cirotes not been forced to roll alone the high team record would probably have been vroken. As it was the team bowled 839. One record that looked safe enough was broken, That was the low individual score, and Smith, of the sec- ‘ond Audubon team, carried off the leath- er medal by scoring 77, a figure that will Ukely ‘hold ‘its own until the end of the tournament. The good rolling commenced with the first game, when the Hawthornes’ from the Bronx, met the American Woollen Company. It was a hot fight all the way with the game in doubt until the last ball was rolled. Although War- muth, the American Woollen Company anchor, put up a great finish and rolled @ totai of 212, his team. lost out by just twelve pins. These two scores were the high ones of the night and ‘the game was hot enough to put the spectators right on edge. It was in the second game, however, that the low scoring was made, The two teams from the Audubon Club met and the first five had no trouble Jn win- out by almost 200 pins. Kelly, the anchor of the first team, was high man with 1%. A, Martin led the second five with 171, apd Smith struggled in with his scora of 77, The Monarchs were down to mert the Circles in the last game, but did not show up and the latter team was forced to bowl alone. The five did splendid! considering the disadvantage they were under, ‘Their score of 869 showed they would have done much better with an opposing team To-night the, week's bowling and Ix good teams are echedul: meet wind-up sho’ an the beginning of t ‘ends, led 1 je thirty gamen. a |Fairly Good Scores Were Made by Teams Last Night in The Evening World’s Tourney. 1d be as exciting | ENJOYED BOWLERS All of the teams that will roll are from outside of Manhattan borough, but they Will have a big following of friends whi will be on hand to do the rooting nece: gary Last night's scores: FIRST GAME.

His money is up to make a match with Jack O'Brien of Tommy Ryan or any of the enid@ler weights. In a telegram to The Dvesing World this afternoon Fitz saya: “I have articles of agreement to Al Gmith at the Gilsey House for O'Brien to sign. He challenged me and named the terms and I accepted them. Now he must put up or shut up. “The same thing goes as to Tommy Ryan. Will meet him at 158 pounds, Marquis of Queensberry rules, or at 154 with bare knuckles, Will take on any- body looking for a fight.” Fitz means business and he is not leaving a loophole for any of the fighters to crawl through. He has accepted the terms of the challengers and put up the money to make the matches and just how O'Brien can get out of a fight ta hard to see. Fitz is in Oil City, Pa., to-day, where, the eJffries show Is playing, and it was from there that he wired The Evening World of his willingness to fight any body at any sort of a proposition and for any amount. Wrestle in Madiso Jack Munroe, the Butte miner, who Bained pugilistic fame by knocking Jim Jeffries down in a bout recently, ts going to try for wrestling honors to-night. Tom Jenkins, a man as good at the game on the mat as Jeffries {s with the gloves, will be the Butte man's opponent. Madl- son Square Garden will be the scene of the contest, and, judging by the amount of interest displayed tn the event, the spacious building will be well filled by the time the big fellows get to work, For three weeks the men have been in training for the bout, and both report that they are in as fit condition as they ever were In their lives for a contest. Jenkins has agreed to throw the Butte man four times in an hour, and there are those who believe that he has under- taken too much. Munroe {8 not a novice at the wrestling game. Out in San Francisco he engaged In many contests, and there are few tricks In it with which he is not familar, Jenkins, though, will have the benefit of experience. The big Cleve- lander has boen fdentified with the game for many years, and his long list of vic- tories 1s enough to convince any one of his ability, Another thing that might be said of him ts that no cleverer man ever stepped on a mat for a contest, 'To offset these advantages Munroe has youth and strength in his favor and he COLUMBIA WANTS TO HAVE A TRACK TEAM. Masn-Meeting Will Be Held To-Day to Bring Candidates Out. A mass-meeting of Columbia students will be held to-day to determine the Im- portant question of whether or not there Js to be a track team this year. There are few candidates for the team and little general Interest among the students, There are a number of good men in the university who can run and won't, and this lack of interest has discouraged those who really have the Interests of the track team at heart KE. W. Hiertberg, the track team trainer, 1s authority for the statement that if there is 4 track team and no more candidates appear he will reduce the squad fo that it will conalst only of a few men, and, letting everything else go, train them only, for the intercol- legiate meets. ——e—__— STEEL ROADWAY FOR AUTOS.
