HANS WAGNER MAY RETIRE.
Pirates Shortstop Troubled with His Old
Complaint. Rheumatism.

PITTSBURG, Dec. 10-Hans Wagner.
the heavy hitter and nimbIe short7top Of
the Pittsburg ball team, may be missing
from the diamond next year, according to
friends of the ''big fellow" and the story
is persistently repeated that he has de-
termined to retire from the game for a
year. tn reason assigned for this move
by Wagner's friends Is that he is suffer-
ing from rheumatism, and that even dur
ing the past season he was at times a
great sufferer. On one trip he did not
go with the team because his right shout
der was giving him much trouble, and 1t
is his intention to rest and nurse his trou-
BILE in the hope that the following season
be may resume the game.
Barney Dreyfuss, who is attending the
meeting of the National League in New
York, laughed at the story just previous
to his departure for New York, but in the
face of Barney's evasiveness, WagEer's
friends assert that the shortstop has made
that statement of his intentions, and that
his place will be taken by James Kane,
a recent acquisition from New York, Of
the P%ittsburg club.

NEWARK HIS.
NOW TURNS
TO HOCKEY

The outlook for a good hockey team at
the Newark High School is bright. AL
though only four players remain from last
years fast team. there Is much promising
material among last years substitutes, and
the new arrivals AZ the school. Captain
Currier, who played the best game of tis
life last year, will try to build up Il cham
pionship team. Eric Franzen, the point
of last year: Creighton Beckley, last years
guard. and Franklin Perry, one OF the
forwards, who played last year, will form
a nucleus. The team will greatly miss
Ruel Paugh, probably the best cover point
that ever represented the Blue and White,
Last years captain, Kenneth Dalzell:
Ainsworth Hague and Cotton Tuttle will
also leave large gaps In the makeup of
the team, for these three men were speedy
on the ice, and accurate shots. Dalzell
scored about three-fourths of the teams
goals. and without a doubt there is no
one In the school who can compar with
him except Currier.
Among, the new material, Charles Adds,
who reported faithfully last year. will
make a hard fight for Paugh's old posi-
ton. Adds Is a good offensive player
and a hard msn to outwit.. James Smith
and Leslie Matthews and Charles Martins
are also good men for forward positions.
James Busch, who played last year on
the New Haven High School team, will
try for a forward position, ard as he has
had considerable experience. he will run
a good show for a position.
Besides the above mentioned men there
are Raymond Campbell, Thomas Asche,
Leroy Putnam, Earl jenkins. Harold
Mead. Edwin Cahoone and Walter Edsall.
All these are players of experience, and a
winning team should be turned out.
Manager Durrell futile is hard at work
arranging games with the best schools In
the vicinity. but as yet has not published
his schedule. He will try to secure the
Park A. A.. oval for all home games Cap
tain Currier expects to call out all candl-
didates tomorrow.

In the first period the score 'see-sawed'

favor. In the last few minutes of play
'Bibbins'' Conway rung in several baskets,
which clinched the game for the home

EAsrnRN LEAGUE RECORD.

Newark's Eastern League bowlers did
themselves proud at Brooklyn yesterday,
winning nine games out OF fourteen from
the Brooklyn pin knights and Just where
the victories were most needed. The in
dividual match, in the afternoon, was con-
siderable of a surprise. for the great
Johnny VOORHEES,, who has a commanding
lead, lost three games out of five to Billy
Weingarth. Brooklyn took the odd game
in the two-man but dropped two out Ct
three In the three-man, and the New
arkers made a clean sweep in the
five-man match at night. The lat
ter victory was especially timely for them,
as it practically assured them first place,
the Brooklyns having been their closest
rivals in this series. The Newarks also
needed the games they got in the three
man, for the New Yorks were pressing
them closely. The pinning was high-class
all around. Johns and Weingarth and
Nelson and VOORHEES, were in great form.
Johns got seven double-century counts
out Of a possible nine, and was in the
'nineties'' in the other two. Nelson also
got seven out of nine, his high mark be-

hours IL minutes and 43 seconds. The pre-
vious record being hours IS minutes, made
at Chicago, July 4, 1906, by Rogers of RAJ
cine. Wis
The meet was attended by the largest
crowd that has ever witnessed automobile
races in the District, and the closeness of
the race for the first fifty miles in the 100
mile event kept the spectators on their feet,
as Hood, who took the lead at the start
was closely followed by Jack Conway in a
Thomas car of ffty-hOrse power Conway
hung close to the rear wheels of the big
sixty-horse-power car of Hood and at one
time took the lead, only to lore it on the
turn because of dust. he being compelled to

was the first time in the history of automo

repairs one of which was the replacing of
a punctured tire. The first mishap coming

of her car being put out of commission,
and she was forced to run on three. Her
second stop was caused by a loose shaft.
But the damage was soon repaired and she
and her mechanic were soon whlrling
around the track at breakneck speed.
Conway's work of rounding the turns at
full speed caused the thousands of specta-
tors to gasp as the other contestants would
shut off power while rounding the turns.

Balloon Blown Out to Sea

LONDON, May S1.-A military balloon,
piloted by Lieuts. Cauifield and Leake Of
the Royal Engineers. which was sent up
from Aldershot camp on Tuesday in the
course of the review in honor of Prince
Fushimi of Japan, was picked up at sea
by fishing smack yesterday some distance
from Exmouth There was alarm as to
the fate Of the two officers, but later in the
day a dispatch by wireless telegraphy was
received from the coastguard station at
the Scilly Islands, reporting that the lieu
tenants had reached the station in safety.
King Edward and Prince Fushimi witnessed
the ascent of the balloon. A strong wind
which was blowing at the time soon carried
it out of sight, and it was not again seen
until it was sighted by coast guards the
same evening near Exmouth.
