GIVE BURNS DUE CREDIT.
Has Defeated More Good Men Than
Corbett or Sharkey.

NEW YORK. December 1.-THE old
fighters are very jealous of Tommy Burns.
Jim Jeffries. Jim Corbett and Tom
Sharkey. none of whom held as many
titles as has Tommy. modify and sulkily
refuse to give him credit for his per-
Torrance. Corbett from his dressing
room sees himself outshone as a pulistic
star of the drama: Jeffries and Sharkey
from behind the bars of their saloons de-
cry his victory. Bob Fitzsimmons, at his
weight the greatest fighter of them all.
has said nothing. Bob is good sport 1t
is fair prediction that he won't be jeal
GUS because a younger man has done what
he could do in his youth.
''Oh. that fellow was Just a dub said
Jeffries. of Moir.
THE fight was of as much Importance
as the little bouts that are held nightly
about New York" said Corbett
LAS compared with the heavywe lights
when Jeffries. Corbetts Fitzsimmons and
myself were fighting. Burns is a fourth
rater.'' said Sharkey.
OF course. Tommy is the champion of
the world only because Jeffries has re-
tired, but good sport would have given
him credit for what he has done. Jeffrias
has shown a mean streak which it was
not believed he possessed. However
there is a remedy for him. Let him
come forth from his retirement and the
public will force Burns to meet him. Then
he will grab all the world titles with
single victory.
While Burns hasn't proved that he is the
equal of Fitzsimmons or Jeffries. he has
beaten more good men than either Cor
bett or Sharkey. He Is improving rapid
ly, and If he will fight on the square there
is little doubt that he will soon be con-
sidered one Of the best men the country
has produced.

BEST BALL FOR TENNIS.
Plan Prepared for Instituting q
Series of Tests

NEW YORK, December 14-An effort Is
to be made to determine which is the best
lawn tennis ball for American courts
Modelling his ideas upon data gathered by
the English Lawn Tennis Association, one
of tdle foremost players in this country
has prepared a plan for a series of tests
to which balls shall be subjected in the
future, and which is expected to be placed
before the annual meeting of the national
association.
The belief is general that lawn tennis
balls, to receive official recognition, should
be put through rigid tests from samples
secured through the open market so that
the players may be sure of getting a ball
of the same quality, according to its trade
mark. whether at Newport or elsewhere
throughout the country. 1t is upon this
basis that the plan has been worked out
1t is proposed that after q committee has
been appointed the secretary Of the United
States National Lawn Tennis Association
shall communicate, either by letter adver-
tisement, or otherwise. with all the Lead
ing manufacturers of lawn-tennis balls in
this country and abroad. and ascertain IL
they are prepared to quote their lowest
price for the supply of balls for 1908 on
certain conditions which will be specified
and provide evidence of their financial
stability and of their ability to supply the
balls in quantities to the satisfaction Of
the committee.

CLOSE RACE AMONG
THE RAILWAY B0WLERS

The race for the leadership in the
Washington Railway Relief Association
Bowling league is becoming more inter-
esting and close each day five teams
being within hailing distance of the top
position. Mechanical has shown a great
reversal of form in the past few weeks
and has clipped the large lead held by
the Northern quint all season. and is now
on an even footing with the latter. Road
way is rolling steadily and occupies third
position. with thirteen games won and
five lost. Columbia is next in line and
coming strong. and Northeastern closely
follows. with one game behind Columbia.
The General Office outfit certainly is
going badly as up to date it has not been
able to triumph over any of the other
quints, being defeated eighteen times, but
the players do not seems discouraged and
deserve lots of credit for remaining in
the league. There are not many teams
that would stick under the same condi-
tons, but the General Office pin rollers
know well that If they withdraw it would
put the directors of the league to con-
siderable trouble revising the schedule
or arranging to get together another
quint strong enough to compete with the
other teams in the league.
Smelling of the Northern team con-
tinues to lead the individual players, hav-
ing the average run of 1863. He has
made 80 strikes and % spares. Wilson
and Wynkoop follow in the order named.

dividual averages for the nine high men

no condition to do himself justice During
the first eight weeks of the season his
batting was lamentably weak. falling be-
low the 10 ma X. 1t was freely pre-
dicted that he was another "phenom' ex-
ploded and that the pitchers had discov-
cred his weakness. Just as soon as Stone
struck his gait he put his critics to rout.
He proved that his eye was just as good
as ever by batting something like 375 for
the last four months, and finished well
over 800 for the season.
"In-and-Outer" at the Bat.
If Stone has any glaring weakness
at the bat the American League pitchers
have not as yet discovered il. Every
now and then some pitcher figures
that he has Stone doped out right. Just
as Mr. Twirier really begins 60 think
this way. Stone dispels the Illusion by
getting four or five hits off his deliv
cry.
One day back in 1906 ST. Louis was
playing n series of games at New York
In the first game Walter GARRISON had
opposed the Browns and made Stone
look rather bad Clarkson had a great
curve ball that day. and he Kept it
low and on the outside. Stone was
easy picking. failing to get the ball
out of the infield. Foxy Griff :elt GER
tain that he had made an important
discovery-Stone couldn't hit a low
curve ball on the outside corner He
confded TINS knowledge to his pitchers
Billy HOgg worked the next cay and
he fed Stone nothing but what Griff
nad prescribed. The Brownie got fiv.
bits that afternoon in as many times
at bat.
That evening the laugh was on Griff
There is one striking popularity
about Stones work at the plate AL
though conceded to be one of the
greatest hitters in the business, he
strikes out more than any other regu-
lar player in the league. I have seen
Stone fan the air four times in many
a game, and the next day come back
with as many hits. 1t is rather
strange happening if Stone fails to
strike out at least once during game.
Why this should be the case with so
good hitter is hard to understand
my attention to Stones strike-out per-
Torrance, and his explanation of the
popularity is a good one. Stone fig
ures that it is no better to hit up a
pop fly than to strike out. There are
certain balls that Stone does not like He
will often pass up one fairly good
strike. and sometimes two. in the hope
of getting one that suits him. O'Con-
nor firmly believes that many of his
strike-outs are due to his delberation
at the plate.
Stone already has signed for next
season, and is sure to be a tower of
strength to the Browns. 1t is a good
bet that the st. Louis fans would be
satisfied with a team like him. Keep
| your eye on the Silent Nah" next year,
| Mr.. Fan, for he's an interesting fellow

STILL IN LEAD OF
LEAGUE BOWLERS
Navy. Yard and Interior Tied
for Second PIace-TWo
Season Records Re-
Gently Broken.

Two season records were broken in the
past fortnight's bowling in the Depart
mental Bowling League.
Crist of the Navy Yard was the first to
break into the limelight. Billy has been
off in his game this season on account of
an injured thumb but he flashed his old
form against the Post Office, stringing
up games of 223. 213 and 232. making a
set of 66S. seven pins better than Field.
who held the record previously.
Hustled. the War recruit. was the next
to hit the high places. In his first game
against the Printers he ran straight
string of seven strikes, giving him the
seasons high single game, 252 Rice's 24s
now being seconu best.
Interior still holds the leadership, with
the Sailors and Interiors tied for Sec
ond place.

New System Next Season.

new system Next ScdSUN
1t was also stated this week that before
Mars Cassidy finished his work with the
gate here few weeks ago he was noti-
fed that he could operate with the walk
up next March, and that it would be
we'll for him to employ this method at
New Orleans, where he will handle the
barrier all winter. Cassidy has always
been a strong advocate Of the walk-up
system, SO that under the present plans
he will be expected to show vast inn
provement in his work, which at times
has not been entirely satisfactory in the
opinion of the racing pubic.
But while it is said that the Jockey
Club stewards have yielded to an alleged
public clamor the fact remains that there
are many conservative horsemen who
believe that the walk-up system will not
be a permanent fixture. These men have
insisted all along that the walk-up start
ing would afford an immense advantage
for quick breakers at the post, while
horses not inclined to get away at given
signal would be so hope. essly handicapped
that they would have practically no
chance to make up lost ground. This has
always been the contention OF some of the
biggest bettors on the eastern turf, and
is these spectators usually study every
angle of racing with extreme care 1t is
thought that some attention should be
paid to their opinions. The fact that
the public has seen some superb start
ing in years gone by with the flat-footed
break, as executed by c. ]. Fitzgerald.
A. B. Dade and Jake hoffman, would
seem to indicate that a Grange in the
walk-up will be regarded in the light of a
means of improving the work Of Starter
Cassidy. Hoffman, who started at En-
pire City last summer, employed both
systems, with the result that racegoers
who looked on were not slow in declar-
ing that the best results accrued from
the standing breakaway.
More Competent officials.
The starting system, however. is not
The most important matter to be cons:d-
cred by the Jockey Club stewards this
winter. In view of the erratlc racing OF
the past season, which caused all sorts of
unpleasant criticism, it is generally be-
lieved that the Jockey Club will look
into the advisabi.--y of having more COM
petent officials in the stewards stands in
future. That more vigilant super
vision of racing is necessary in future
nobody in authority will deny, but just
at present the proposition to employ .'pro-
fessional stewards Is not regarded with
particular favor by the powers that be.
The Jockey Club never does things in a
hurry, but when action is finally taken
the turf is usually benefited. The turf
governors began vigorous crusade
against existing evils in October, but the
season was SO near conclusion that
that an investigation of certain impor-
tant matters is still under way. and that
when the season of 1908 rolls around
there will be little or no room on the
metropolitan tracks for INSCRIPTIONS
operators.

TO IMPROVE THE BREED.
Prizes to Be offered by Horse Rae
ing Associations.

NEW YORK, December 14.-Horsemen
who say there is no definite type Of the
equine family in this country to compare
with the Orloff of Russia, the hackney of
England, or any of the other accepted
families which breed with uniformity and
perpetuate characteristics of color and
gait and conformation will soon be con-
WINGED that the United States is not to re-
main in eclipse in the work of improving
the breed of horses. The Coney Island
Jockey Club, the Westchester Racing AS
ISOLATION and the Brighton Beach Racing
have decided to offer substan-
tial prizes to be given at county fairs in
this state next fall and purpose contin-
uing the same annually as long as racing
conditions remain as al present.
The swork begun by the Jockey Club,
when through it's breeding bureau thor
oughbred stations of size and of good con-
formation were placed in competent
hands throughout the Empire state was
provement.
There are forty-eight thoroughbred stall
lions distributed throughout thirty-six
counties in New York state. The Jockey
Club last year offered premiums at the
fairs for weanlings by them. and these
prizes are to be augmented by the Coney
Island Jockey Tub, Brooklyn Jockey
Club, Westminster Racing Association and
Brighton Beach Racing Association. Each
of these associations has decided to do
nate a prize of 500 to county fairs ir
counties where stallion of the breeding
bureau is located. This will be total OF
S14, 400, each organization contributing
S., 600.
These prizes will be for the homebreds
only; that is, the various candidates must
be owned in the counties in which they
are shown. This will prevent specimens
of superlative merit from sweeping the

Livelier Season in Tennis.

NEW YORK, December 1.-THE pros
pect is for a !ivelier season in lawn ten
mis- the coming year. The British players
will be here to play the preliminary
matches for the Davis international
trophy, and that means, too, according
10 announcement. that they will take part
in our championships. Further than that,
before they do get here an effort is to
be made to make uniform the playing
rules of both countries, and, at least on
