his hand with o Hello, old boy. You're

Poor fellow

Mormon cyclist.
Now, Hopper is not a fellow lacking the
grit necessary to ride six days. He has
been through two such races, finishing sec-
ond last year as the teammate of Hardy
Downing, and fifth in 1905. when he rode
with HOLSTER, but in one sense it Is n
relief playing the role of spectator instead
of rider.
II say I'm fortunate In a way for being
out OF the race " remarked Hopper, turn

this game for our health or pleasure.
There's the prize money and bonus as an
inducement and a little notoriety on the

1T didn't sleep n wink during the first
two six-day races In which I rode. When
you nave been going a couple of days YOU
are more like a machine than a man.. Your

there. You ride and ride, seeing only the
black line on the track and a haze of faces
around you.

most difficult to keep tab on the days of

That means a little rest, but, with me,
sleep was out of the question.
During those minutes when you are

laps being stolen, etc, and you are anxious

Eddie Root and Norman c. Hopper, who
figured prominently as six-day riders in
years past, are daily visitors at the Madi-
son Square Garden. To them it must seem
strange seeing the other riders grinding
out the miles on the track which they
themselves had circled thousands of times.

AT MoNTcLAIR ACADEMY.
Cadets Basketball Prospects This Sea-
son Regarded as Good.

The basketball squad at the Montclair
Academy is slowly coming around in
shape. Never before has the enthusiasm
been SO great over this branch Of sport.
The largest squad that has ever been out
for basketball is out daily. All the men
are working hard, and with such a large
squad to pick from a successful team is
assured. A great many new men are out
this year and they all show that they will
make things interesting for the veterans.
At centre a hot fight is going on between
w. Partridge and Montgomery, and at
present the honors look about even. w.
Partridge is q good shot, a clever passer
and is very strong on breaking up his OPP
~ponents' team work. Montgomery has not
played basketball much to speak of, but
he takes to the game naturally. He is
lightning fast, a fair shot and very ag-
gressive. He is tall and a good jumper
and he invariably gets the tip-off against
his opponents. This means a whole lot to
a team, as they can develop their team
work better when they are sure of the
tip-off.
Captain Van Hoesen is playing right for
ward, while Knapp and Heuschell are
fighting 1t out for the other forward posi-
tions, They are both good men, and each
an experienced player. 1t will be a hard
matte for Coach Garrison to decide be,
to nave the first call on the guard posi-
tons at present. They played the guards
on last years undefeated team, and their
work in a great Measure was responsible
for the low scores of their opponents. II.
Partridge makes an ideal back guard, as
he is tail and can stretch himself out and
break up his opponents team work easily.
Hazel is a sure shot. and he makes a
good man to come down and help out the
forwards under the basket. Walden,
Schmidt and Richard are also out for posi-
tons on the team. They are all good
and will give the old men a hard rub.
The cadets will open their season next
Saturday at Garden City, when they meet
the strong st. Paul's School aggregation.
A stiff schedule has been arranged, and
only good hard work viii bring the cadets
mt ahead.

League Champions
Miss Clean Sweep Over
MOntclair by 4 Pins.
TEAM STANDING.

The Roseville Athletic League champions.
who are feeling ont of place in the secqnd
division, missed a clean sweep over the
Montclair bowlers on the formers alleys
last night by the margin of four pins. Tae
Champions needed three games and figured
on taking them. Their task seemed easy
when Montclair put in a modest ~ in ths
opening game, which was just one hundred
pins shy of Roseville's total. The Subuf-
banltes repeated their score in the final
set-to, but in tho second heart they built
up a total of 946, beating out the homie team
by three pins.
Roseville, consequently. got away with
only two games ana is now tied for fourth
place with Montclair. The feature OF the
series was the rolling OF Oiozaga. The
Count" did not have Il score below tho
double century mark and finished with ats
average of 215. Elmer Wood donnted -
in the second game, which helped some IA
putting up that g43 team total. Brown led
Montclair in the same game with 200, Lock
wood and Lewis each scoring 100,
