vILLANovA COLLEGE.
Great Work Performed by the Midget
 Team Under Coach Phelau.

The work in track athletics done by St Nicholas academy of villauovA has indeed been remarkable. In the first meet of the season. on February 22, held at the First Regiment ars mory, Philadelphia. they captured second prize in the relay race. On March 6. first, second and third placo was taken by them in the 70 yard dash. March 16, the team was eu. tered in the 70 dash and relay. and in both of these events they came out victorious, winning first and third place in the 70 yard dash and caps turing the first place in the relay. To a word, the points scored thus far arc 40. and prizes won. IS. consisting of four silver cups, six gold medals. one silver and two bronze medals. The fact must not be overlooked that the youngsters who compose the team of the maroon and blue are midgets in the strict sense of the word. Their average is so pounds: height { feet, g inches: age, 13 years. John Day is captain of the team. and the other members are Frank Breen, Louis vero. Frank Zimmatore and w. Mun- roe Miller. The Philadelphia North American had the following to say about the team:
 "The progress made by St Nicholas academy in track athletics is remark able. Although the first year in this branch of sport, the work done thus far has been encouraging. The mid- get team. composed of boys who aver- age about I4 years and about ninety pounds in weight. has demonstrated its speed and pluck.
 This was clearly shown in the first meet, held few weeks ago fn the First Regiment armory. for. had not an unexpected accident occurred. 1t would easily have captured first place. Coach Phelan has personal charge Of the team. and is directing his undivided attention toward the candidates who will represent the garnet and blue in the midget meets on March g and Is.
 "Six of the youngsters will compete on the 18th at the First Regiment ar- mory. The boys who have thus far shown the best form and have. a c consequence, been placed permanent- ly on the team are Captain Day, Yero. Breen and Zimmatore.
 "shsd. Murphy. Kelley and yfrrill are some of the many candidates who will have a thorough trying out with in the next week Manager Hessett is making arrangements to enter his team in sll the important outdoer meefs."

THE SPORTING NEWS.
PARENT WILL GO.
Charley Wagner Has Made Good for
 Place in Boston.

President John I. Taylor of the Boston Americans announces that he will trade Shortstop Fred Parent to some other club as soon as possible. Parent went to Little Rock not long ago to talk business with Taylor, but they could not agree upon terms at all. Last season Parent received $4,250 for his work, but as he did not play good ball he was asked to accept cut of $500. Parent however, has held out for not only $4,250, but also a contract for three years. As Wagner of last years Newark team is playing fine game at short field for the Bostons. Taylor has concluded to get rid of Parent. The latter is high class ball player, but it is doubtful if any other club would be willing to assume his S4,- 250 contract. An attempt to trade him to Washington for Jake Stahl may be made in the near future, or it is possible that the Philadelphia Americans may make an offer for him, as Mack would like to play Monte Cross at third base.

NAPOLEON LAJ0IE'S
Official Baseball Guide for 1907 is
 Now Ont.

Napoleon Lajoie's official baseball guide for 1907 is out. This great ball player has certainly made good in the publishing business and from the appearance of the guide he cer- tainly deserves a great deal of credit for the efficient manner in which it is compiled. In his work he was ably assisted by NJ. A. Bobrick who has had a great deal of experience in writing and compiling baseball books.
 The 1907 number Is the second year of the publication and is in ev- cry way superior to his last years is- sue. both 'in contents. illustrations and workmanship.
 The volume contains eSs pages. Has complete offcial records of the American, National and all minor leagues. Contains fine half tones of all the American and National League clubs and the champion clubs of mil nor leagues from all over the coun- try.
 There is a complete record of the worlds series played at Chicago fully illustrated with pictures in action of the great players who participated in these games.
 The book fairly bristles with base ball lore. facts and statistics and is most valuable as a reference book and guide.
 One of the best features are group pictures of all of the prominent pres idents and managers of minor league clubs from all over the country. which must have taken a great deal Of pains and patience to collect. These pictures have never appeared in any baseball guide before
 Another feature is group of man. asers of great college clubs. also group phctos of the baseball teams of the big colleges of the country
 The illustrations of the greatest ball players in the country taken while in action by Laiose's special photographers are more than worth the price Of the book and should be seen by every fan and lover of base ball
 The guide contains the 1907 rules revised to data

Hartford, March 25.-The mag mates of the Connecticut Roller Polo league met in the Flemish room of and awarded franchises to Springfield and Holyoke.
 The Franchise committee, w. w.. Hanna of New Britain, P. F. Me- Mahon and Harry Starkie of Hart ford, made the following report. sign ed by Hanna:
 Your franchise committee, Me- Mahon, Starkie and myself, paid a visit to Springfield and Holyoke, Mass, Sunday, March IF, and looked over the ground carefully, at request of Kennedy and McDermott. I re- turned Tuesday and met the financial men, both of whom have given me in writing the assurance that they will build rinks this summer and have them ready by September 1. 1907, with playing surface 90x45 feet and plenty of seating room.
 In Springfield. George A. Whitney will enlarge the Lyman street rink. It is a good location and directly off the railroad station. He is a wealthy real estate dealer and MT Kennedy only will be interested with him. In Holyoke, l met A. l.. Codaire, who will for McDermott and Wig neux. Both cities are hot for polo and will engage strong teams to. rep resent them.
 It was voted to award the Spring field franchise to George A. Whitney and Charles Kennedy and the Hol- yoke franchise to A. l.. Coadaire, T. P McDermott and T. F. Vigneaux. If the franchises are accepted the men who get them will have to put up a bond of $500 to meet the require ments of the league.
 | The league voted to have the re- ceipts of the double-headers on Good Friday pooled and divided equally between the clubs, It was also de- cided to have the annual meeting in Bridgeport; it is expected that this will be held on April 15. President Pyne presided at the meeting yester- day and Manager Eadie of Bridge port acted as secretary in the absence of William Peet, who was unable to come up on account of sickness in his family. At the annual meeting the league will remember Secretary Peet in substantial manner for the hard work he has put in.
 ], The Springfield and Holyoke clubs will have their rinks ready when the new season starts. The present clubs have reserved about all of their men for next season. There were pres ent at the meeting yesterday Mama ger Starkie of Hartford, Manager Hanna of New Britain, Managers Mo- Mahon of Waterbury, Managers Sam Simmons and R. w.

BASEBALL NOTES.

Charley Hickman of the Washing ton Americans is doing some terrific batting down south. In a game at Galveston the other day Hickman in four times up made single, double, a three bagger and home run. He is playing first base in good style in the absence of Stahl, who says he will never play with the Washington Club again.
 Garry Hermann, chairman of the National Baseball Commission and president of the Cincinnati National League club, has been elected presi- ldent of the American Bowling Con- gress at the annual convention in St. Louis. Hermann in his canvass was supported bya number of former base ball men, including A. C.Anson, of Chicago and Kid Nichols, for years the star pitcher of the Boston club.

 Harry Bay laments the transfer of Rossman to Detroit. The pair were roommates when both were members of the Cleveland club.
 Poor old Candy Lachance has been shunted from pillar to post du- ring the last ten years. Starting with Brooklyn, his transfer read to the Boston Americans, to Montreal, to Providence, and this year to Water bury. where he succeeds Harry O'Hagan on the first cushion for the Connecticut league club located in that city. Waterbury is "Candy's'' home town and his friends will see that be doesn't go any further down the toboggan.
 Bill Carrigan, catcher on the Holy Cross ball team last year, made one of the longest drives ever seen at Little Rock last week in the game between the Regulars and Yannigans of the Boston Americans. He car ried of the honors of the day by driving the ball over the left field fence for home run. The feat is considered remarkable at Little Rock. as it has only ben performed three times in the memory of the oldest inhabitant of the place.
 J. C. Morse, secretary of the New England League. who furnishes the New England League Record of 1906 for one of the baseball guides, places Fred Klobendaz as third in the list lof winning pitchers. This fact is stated as some of the fans think be- cause Dutch does not care to pitch this season. that he is a has been.

In 102 games he had batting aver age of .294, while he led the first basemen of the league with a per- centage of .9s5.

 clines to discuss the fight. Mean while Eddie Graney. the Frisco pro- motor, has offered s35,000 for the mill to take place in that city on the same date and it is probable that Nolan will accept. It looks as if Cans and Nelson were further apart than ever and that it will be long time before they will agree upon terms.
 Mike Neumann, of the New York Long Acre Athletic club, propri- etary club, not satisfied with his own troubles in the courts, insists on letting his club to fighters and their managers for any spare night he may have open and allows fights to be pulled off under the charter of the Long Acre Athletic club, as is the case of the Harris vs Goodman bout. He is about to do the same thing again in bringing Joe Thomas and Willie Lewis together, but if Mir Neumann is wise he will cut out the side shows and confine himself to his regular weekly boxing exhibitions.

 Poor George Dixon, the feather weight champion of the world for so many years and an idol of the fight lovers when he was in his prime, has failed to make a success of his stage career. Dixon secured an en- gagement for last week at Philadel- phia. but fell of the water wagon as soon as he struck town, and his en- gagement was speedily cancelled by the management. By curious coin cidence, Walter Edgerton, otherwise known as the Kentucky Rosebud" who knocked out Dixon 13 years ago last week in Philadelphia was offered the week at the theater in place of Dixon.
 At Baltimore Joe Tipman. the con- 'queror of Harry Lewis, lost his title of lightweight champion of the south to Harry Scroggs, his old-time rival, before the Nonpariel A. c. The bout was the toughest fought there in some time. It was a slam-bang affair from the start. and honors were by far in Scroggs' favor all the way The end came in the fourth round, when Tipman absolutely refused to break from clinch and was dis qualified.
 At Indianapolis "Matty" Baldwin picked up some easy money by de- feating Freddie Cole of Indianapolis in 10 rounds. Cole has vanquished several prospective champions during the past year and has been touted as one of the best boys of his weight, 126 pounds.
