Pennsylvania, Princeton, Yale and Column

Yale. This season all the colleges have gone
into the game and are making serious eff
forts to establish the sport as one of the
main branches.
Practice has begun in all the institutions
that are to compete in the intercollegiate

that little bluff sprint off first drawing the
throw from the pitcher Just to worry the
young twfrler. Tucker, seeing his game, be-
gan to make strenuous efforts to block Bill
off the bag and touch him out Tucker was
tricky, and unless the runner was wise he
would find himself cut off entirely from the
base. Tom was trying all his tricks with
EVer1tt, who was scamperfng off the base
and lodging back. He even caught the ball
and sat down suddenly, but Bill got around
him.
On the next try Bill started as If to steal,
but after running three feet with mile of
motion he stopped and stepped back on to
the base just as the pitcher threw. What
ever possessed him to do 1t he never knew,
but he tickled Tom In the ribs and Tom
with whoop, forgot the ball and jumped
three feet into the air, letting the ball go
to the grand stand.
Other ball players who learned that Tom
was ticklish tried 1t again and again until
the umpires stopped them.
One of the best that ever happened was
Dehlman, who played with st. Louis first
professional team, way back in the '70s.
Dehlman was one of the fastest sprinters
that ever broke into the game, and one day
In game against Chicago at st. Louis with
a runner on third, the ball was hit sharp to
Dehl, who scooped 1t for a throw to the
plate. He took q look and discovered that
the catcher was twenty feet away. The
Chicago runner hesitated, half stopped and
then, seeing the situation started toward
the plate again. Dehl started also and to-
gether they slid toward the plate from OPP
posite directions, and the umpire gave st
Louis the decision.

KING OF THE RINGERS.

CHICAGO, January 27-Trottine cir
cles are stirred again over the king of the
ringers. Fred Wilton, it being reported
that he is being prepared under a new
name 70 invade the west again the coming
season.
Fred Wilton began his turf career hon
estly, but after the first crooked step
seemed fated TO fall into dishonest hands.
Fred Wilton (2.09A) is a bay pacing
gelding by Wilward and made his record
In 1900. He started in 1898 as a two-year-
old and In 1899 made record of 225A.
nus way%ard career began In 1901 at
Rockport, Ohio, in the $50 pace as Ornus
by Orphan, but he was not in the money
he next started at Bradford, Pa, in the
rs pace. and won. His best time was
2l7M. Then he won the 222 pace AT ST
Mary's and next he got third money in the
2l7 pace at Titusville At Cleveland he
failed TO realize. At Bucyrus the next
week ne won second place in the 215
pace. This was his last appearance as
Ornus.
Horsemen knew of the work of Ornus,
but at Bay City, Mich, in his next start
the description OF the stranger that had
taken so much corn crop money away
from Ohio did not fit Frank Derby by
Charles Derby. His markings had been
changed. After travelling very slowly in
several races he won his race on the third
day of his meeting and then made rapid
change to Warren, Ohio, appearing as
Rock Wilkes in the go pace. Again he
took first money.
ground, appearing at each meet under
different name and with a new coat OF
paint But the muscles beneath were the
same When Ohio got too warm for his
owners operations were begun at West
field, Mass.-again as Frank Derby. The
last place to which he was traced that
year was to Elmira, n. Y.
In 1902 he was raced in Wisconsin under
the name of Ell Zaga.
In 1903 he opened his third tour on July
at Fort Dodge, Iowa, Wilkes Jim, by
Jim Wilkes. He got only second money,
but thereafter first money and side bets
flowed into the Golfers of Cook, who
was driving.
He next appeared at faraway Water
ville Me. He started as Noah r. There
he won two races, and next moved to
Bangor, Me. where he was in the money.
In 1904 the performer again made the
west his stamping ground. He started at
Kansas City as Avalanch, and appeared at
Joplin, Mo, and Nevada, Mo.
He was then shipped to Kinghsher
okla, for the 2.1S pace. Labeled as Col
umbiue, by Combination, he won easily,
but was protested and his earnings with
held. Subsequent investigation told the
whole story. The dyestuff on his legs and
body came off when soap and warm water
were applied.
Last winter horse represented as Fred
Wilton was sold at auction at st. Louis,
Mo. and was reported sold to q buyer
from Windsor Ont Shortly afterward
a report was circulated of the death of
Fred Wilton at Windsor.
Last summer a horse alleged to be Fred
Wilton was discovered on the Salt Lake
City track, appearing in special race as
Ben J.. by Reward ]. He won the race,
but was recognized by the presiding Judge
Nnpnus Flaws, whose protest was nulli-
fled by refusal of action by the others in

lish sportsmen by Mr.. Edwin Cleary who is

pelota Is wonderfully popular and large

To the Briusher it comes as mixture of
racquets and hand ball, with a touch of
tennis thrown in, or racquets with only one
side wall. 1t is a game that requires good
condition, accuracy and pace and much en-
durance. A tremendous swing of the whole
body is required, as well as much power, to
drive the ball from the end of the court to
the wall. a distance of $50 feet.
