FIRST CALL ISSUED
FOR TRACK TEAM
AT NEWARK HIGH
Many Candidates Respond, and
Prospects for Champion Team
Are Better Than Ever.

First call for candidates for the
track team at the Newark High School
was issued yesterday by Captain Fred
erick A. Seidler. In the squad of ath-
letes that responded there seems to be
material for the making of a cham
pion team and prospects in the camp
of the blue and white have seldom been
brighter.
The relay team should be one Of the
strongest that ever represented the school
in view of the fact that there are "a num-
Der of experienced 40 boys available.
Last seasons entire team, composed. of
Wagner, Heinrichs, Smith and Clark, are
again on hand. Charles Drew and Gus
tave Brown, two new quarter-milers, have
excellent records and should make good.
The sprinting department will be looked
after by james Smith, the peerless 100-yard
boy, together with Charles Drew, who
made such a creditable showing in the
speedy 22O-yard runner Of last year, is again
on hand and in fine fettlc.
The mile run and half mile, which have
been Newark's weakest points since the
graduation of Richard Kohn. the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania long-distance crack,
should prove strong events next season for
the cr~oss-country team. Several members
of the hill and dale crew, including N.
Chandler. A. Chandler. W. Heinrichs and
Bowers. have signified their intention of
11ASAA +0fT -
running the mile.
The hurdles will be looked after by the
veteran Tuttle, together with Brown, a
new man with a fast record In the low
hurdles, and Solder, who is topping the
timbers in one twenty yard high hurdles.
Among the field events Newar will be
well fortified In the high jump with such
jumpers as e. Helnrichs, r. Curtis and W.
Cavanaugh, who have records of 5 feet s
inches or better in the leap for height. In
the pole vault the 1.-THE Kenneth Curtis
has no peer; while the running broad jump
will be taken care Of by Campbell and j.
will again appear. together with e. Booth.
C. Blauvelt, r. Reade, Odds and Haw-
thorne. The list of candidates for the
various events follows:

fed at this end, put President Mccall
frey, the head mogul of he Toronto
outfit, Is quoted as saying that the deal
will very likely go through.
Who the pitcher in question might be
is f. mystery. Toronto would, no doubt,
like to get any one of the Tigers big
five. Frill, Mueller, Brockett, Hughes or
Beecher, but 1t is doubtful II Newark
would give any Of these men even for
the mighty Jake Gettman. Manager
Wolverton might be willing to swap
Doc Newton or Demaree or both, but
the other five, granting that they will
be returned by the major league clubs
which purchased them, look good
enough to remain right here.
Gettman would be a valuable addition to
the Newark team. The only reason why
Toronto Is willing to let him go is the fact
that the player has baked against playing
in the Canadian city. The proposed swap
of Schlafy for Mullen does not, strike z
popular keynote here; Schahy Is a good
come up to Mullen In hitting and general
aggressfveness. Jimmy 'ad a bad season

JERSEY SPORT"
That's the wish Of the Jersey sports, par
ticularly In this city. If some Of New Jer-
sey's lawmakers could note the interest
shown in the little ''foxing' shows given in
this city. or see the crowds flock over to
New York whenever a local boy is booked
to appear in the ring there, they might
appreciate how popular h sport Is In this
neighborhood. :,
Professor Gus Troxler, of this city, will
make another effort at the next session
Of the Legislature to have a measure passed
to this effect. He succeeded two years ago
in having such a bill pass the House. but
1t was defeated by a small majority In
the Senate.
Troxler's "foxing' shows have been wit
messed by large crowds, including some OF
Newark's leading business men. We're reg
ulatlon gloves used the sport would be all
the moro interesting, for the fine points
of the game cannot well be appreciated
with the rse Of the clumsy foxing muffs.
Regular boxing exhibitions with q capable
man in charge would be welcomed by the
sporting fraternity In this city. The game
could be limited to exhibitions, as in New
York and Philadelphia, where no decisions
are rendered. In three or four-round bouts
there would be even less danger of bru-
tally. At any rate. another effort to
nave the sport legalized will be made.

FARRELL MAY TRADE
CHASE TO ANOTHER CLUB,

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-According to the
feeling in baseball circles here, Hal Chase,
the youthful but talented first baseman,
will not be allowed to play with the
Yankees next year, because of his derelic-
lions during the season past.
Harry G. Pulliam. president Of the Ma

follows:
Chase committed one Of the most griev-
GUS sins of baseball. He violated the
sacredness OF his contract and In circum-
without ono prop of justification. /
will not say that the commission could not
pardon such an ~offense. But I do know
that the commission will, without doubt,

before taking such a course as he did"
Frank Farrell, of the New Yorr Amer
leans, 1t is said, has relented somewhat
in his attitude toward Chase, but it Is
rumored that the player will not be REIN
stated, but sold to some other club.

 A fellow had used lightly the name of laly iu Blrrymore's presence and a friend, noting Barrymore's pallor, nd Knowing with what joy Barrymore gen. orally joined iu any current row, asked why he had witheld bis hand. Every blow struck iu beh ,li of woman is 6 dent ln her reputation" was Barry mores reply.
 Nothing was ever more true and no truth was ever more completely exemp- li6ed than by this case. The incident was forgotten by the few who knew ot 1t save the fool husband who, to satisfy his jealous rage, hss made bis wife as we'll as himself the laughing stock of the world, to such degree that her name is 5aadIed about even in the "bolsr plate" print of the day, and her life spoiled.
