POOL PLAYER UNLUCKY.

blindness. The pool champion of the
world and one of the greatest expo
nents of the game ever known, prob
ably will never play again.
De Oro's eyes are all to the bad,
and his physician has ordered him to
wear glasses. He is suffering from a
severe case of astigmatism. He at
tended a ball game the other day and
admitted after the contest that his
eyesight is failing badly.
The Cuban champion, who Is very
popular in st. Louis. has met and de-
.feated every player of note in the
United States and once defeated John
Roberts, the English champion. His
two contests against Jerome Keogh
are still pool classics. Almost hope
,lessly beaten in both contests, he
came from behind and by wonderful
exercise of all his craft snatched vic
tory from defeat.

MADE RECORD M
Racing at vaiIsburg Track Sunday Best Of

The racing at Vailsburg Sunday
was the pest that has ben witnessed
at the track this season. The wealth

breaking, there being no wind to
speak of to check the riders speed.
With the rather poor condition of the
track the work of the men was all
the more creditable.
Charles Schlee, the plugger of the
National Turnverein, of Newark, and
Floyd Krebs, another Newarker, es-
tablished what is believed to be new
records in two Of the races at the
meet. Schlee's performance was in
the Australian pursuit race for pro-
fessionals, which he won unpaced,
covering a distance of five miles and
fifty-five yards in 10 minutes As 2-5
seconds, while Krebs won the quar-
ter mile open from a flying start in

LEAGUE
NOTES AND COMMENT

r"NrIH
Colyer's feat in pitching two games
one after the other unwaveringly is
worthy of comment.
That doubleheader Saturday was
as good a baseball exhibition as one
would want to see.
A crowd that would do Justice to
any ball game watched the Pardees
and Copper Works teams.
Chesebroughs couldn't find Horns
by until the ninth. Then they got
three safe ones.
Which reminds me of Potter's re-
mark at the Perth Amboy-Rahway
game at Amusement Park some
weeks ago. When asked why he did
not hit one of Burchell's shoots, he
replied: How am l going to hi it
when | can't see it?"
The Pardees and Gugg.es will
draw a crowd next Saturday
Grimley's umpiring was, on the
whole, excellent in Saturdays game
between the c. p. WIS and r. c.
WIS.
Geist, the former A. S. & r. star,
has now been in the game with the
Copper Works a few weeks. He
played at first Saturday. He's on the
job all the time, and is a corl;ine,
base runner.
Napier is putting up a fine game
with Matawan Saturdays. They'd
like him to play Wednesdays, too, it
is understood.
When Patsy st. Clair removed his
mask and cap Saturday to go after a
pop foul, someone spied his close
cropped hair, and then they all
laughed.
A meeting of the Factory League
governors is scheduled for next Tues
day night.
If the Copper Works plays were
just a little stronger in the support
department, they might win o%ftener.
The Pardees had at least n run as
a gift Saturday.
Billy Cleary wasn't behind the
door when grit was being handed out.
A little thing like a heat attack
didn't deter him from catching the
remainder of the game and the sec
ond game, too.
Colyer's NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
off" gets the nerve of many a bats
man. Colyer smiles almost contin-
ually while in the box, except when a
tight pinch arrives. Then he grits
his teeth and gets serious.
Oberly in left field for the Pardees
is a little tower of strength and he
covers a lot of territory.
Alec Oleson went into centre field
in the second game with the Pardees
Saturday when Holland went on the
firing line, and Alley directed the
team from there.
When Latham, the fast infielder
and handy batter of the Pardees, fan
ned Saturday, a boy in the crowd
along the third base line yelled:
Gee, Bert struck one O. DER best
swatters out"

THIS LEAGUE ON LAST LEGS.

In all probability there will be no
South Jersey baseball league after
this week. There are various reasons
for this disarmament. which, from a
reliable source, it is learned, is al
most a surety. Millville lands an
easy winner, both in playing honors
and from a financial standpoint,
while Clayton and Williamstown will
quit about wen on money matters,
and Bridgeton something to the good.
Whether Millville and Bridgeton will
continue can. not be learned at this
time, but there is a probability they.
will quit, as Melville has a superior
team to Bridgeton.

done as yet.
Saturdays games will bring the
Pardees and A. s.. & r. teams togeth-
err on the Pardee diamond, and the
r. C. WIS and Chesebroughs on the
Copper Works grounds.
