men, breaking 90 blue rocks out of
possible 100. The best one of the profess
sional shots who were interspersed among
the different squads was j. A. r. Elliott
of Brooklyn. who shattered exactly the
same number as the high gun among the
amateurs.
Close upon the heels of Mr.. Epson. who
is a newcomer in local circles. were three
crack shots who have made good records
in many events Of note. The trio which
were tied for second place consisted of
G. W. Billings. one of the best OF the
New York A. c. team; J. Ii. Hendrick-
son, Bergen Beach Gun Club. and w. NJ.
Foord of Wilmington, Del. who won the
championship two years ago. These men
each broke "a birds and shot off the tie
at a string of %. Mr.. Hendrickson, who
finished his complement with clean
score of so in the afternoon session. con-
t;nued his accuracy and shattered % more
without miss. Mr.. Billings lost his third
and sixteenth. and Mr.. Flood failed to hit
three of his string. The Bergen Beach
crack finished so we'll that many look on
him to beat Mr.. Upson for the title today.
Although the important event comes on
today there was practically as much In
terest among the marksmen as in a cham
pionship. All were eager to try the tricks
of the traps and learn the lay of the land.
The conditions were not of the best. as
the light was pretty dim because of the
heavy clouds. Trees that formed back
ground to some of the traps caused con-
complaint from those who were
unfortunate enough to make poor scores.
The 'birds." too. were pretty erratic In
their flight
Only one woman competed. She was
Mrs. G. w. Butler Of Troy, N. Y, who
has been practicing little more than
year at the sport. She was able to bring
down only 81 out of the 100 erratic blue
rocks, but as her nervousness wore of she
kept getting better and better. and may
prove a surprise today. Her first group
netted her only 13, but she went up to 20
on her last string There were several
men who failed to do as well as she.
George Maxwell, the crack one-armed
professional from Holstein. Neb. finished
fourth of the fourteen paid marksmen
who competed. His score was 81.

PENN LOSES FOUR
MORE BALL PLAYERS

PHILADELPHIA, December 1s.-Fol-
lowing closely on the heels of the an
nouncement yesterday of the disqualifi-
cation Of Londrigan. the captain and star
second baseman of the University of
Pennsylvania base ball team, Vice Pro-
vost Edgar F. Smith has announced that
Twitmeyer, Porte and Schultz will be
ineligible to play for the Quakers this
spring.
This announcement has thrown a con-
siderable jar into the hope of the Penn
students for a champion team, for Twit-
meyer and Schultz are the two best pitch
ers In the college, and Porte is one of
the best catchers that ever wore the
Red and Blue.
Schultz and Porte were the star bat
terry Of Mercersburg Academy before they
entered Pennsylvania. Last summer they
forfeited their amateur standing by play
ing on the Goldsboro team of the East
ern Carolina Base Ball League, Porte
playing under the assumed name of Ed
gar. Porte had previously forfeited his
amateur standing by playing on an up
state team under the name of Porter.
Twitmeyer and Spring played In the
same town. Twitmeyer hiding his identity
under the name of Blackburn, and Spring
playing under his own name and also as
James.

VARIATIONS WON'T
HURT AMATEURlSM

+ NEW YORK, December 1S.-There Is
no danger of a wave of professionalism
sweeping through the ranks of the
amateur athletes just because a few
men are making money in Marathon
matches. So says Big Jim Sullivan, the
president Of the Amateur Athletic
Union. Mr.. Sullivan did not seem in
the least worried, when seen yesterday
afternoon. over the sudden popularity
of professional running.
DO you think these Marathon races
will have a tendency to lessen the in
terest in the amateur tracks and field
sports?" he was asked.
"InJure the sport? Not Bit" said
the veteran official Of the A. A. u. IF
anything, it will increase the popular
ity of athletics; that is, SO long as these
match races are run on the level. The
more popular these professional con-
interest in the amateur events of the
same kind. For every Longboat Do
rando and Hayes lost to the amateur
cause the A. A. U. will gain q dozen
ambitious recruits.
1T Is simply wonderful how distance
running has come to the front In Amer
lea In the past four years. Marathons,
both amateur and professional, will
now be held all over the country, and
thousands Of people will learn for the
first time what an exhilarating sport
endurance running Is when good men
are in the race.
Distance running was extremely pop
ular about New York in the days of
Willie Day and Tommy Conner, but I
predict greater enthusiasm than
ever for this stirring sport.
"Sprinting, jumping, hurdling or
weight-throwing can never attain the
popularity OF distance contests. so
there is little danger of the slight
wave of nrOfessiOnalism extending to
these branches of athletics. Let the
Marathons for prize money go on, and
as long as they are honestly conducted
1 hope their popularity will continue.
They will certainly help to promote
amateur sports, for very few athletes
ever care for a professional career on
the cinder path. 1t Is not a path strewn
with roses"
