RACES CALLED Off:
ATTENDANCE SMALL
Scheduled Night Motor Events at
Fiesta Park Are Abandoned and
Exhibition Contests Are Sub
stituted by Management

The crowd at Fiesta park dwindled
still more last night, and Manager
Pickering was forced to call off ali
scheduled events and refund the money
at the gates. Manager Pickering also
announced that the plan of holding
races every night for this week will
be discontinued, owing to the little in
terest shown by followers of the game.
However, a few exhibition races
were pulled off, so that those who had
found their way in would not go away
disappointed.
Manager Pickering stated last night
that he did not know exactly when the
racing would be resumed, but it is very
probable that the park viii not open
again until the Fourth of July, when a
big meet will be put on, with some of
the fastest riders in the south.
1t is also rumored that the entire
park will soon be completely covered
over in order to protect the riders
from the cool nights that invariably
prevail, even during the hottest
weather. This, however, would spoil
the place for football games, as it
would be impossible to carry on the
gridiron game in an indoor space.
Last nights exhibition results were
as follows:
Novice race, I mile-Won by Graves.
Time. 2:46.
8-mile amateur motorcycle race
Won by Seymour; Graves second.
Time. 3:46.
1-mile open amateur-Won by Smith;
Long second. Time, 2:21.
Ray Duer gave a beautiful exhibit
ton in a motor paced race, riding back
of Agraz on his big French machine,
and succeeded in COVERING two miles
in 2 minutes "a seconds. The race was
intended to go three miles, but the
motorcycle broke down at the two mile
mark and the riders were forced to
stop, Duer narrowly averting a serious
accident when the motor came to a
stop.

ANGELS BREAK LOSING STREAK BY
SHUTTING OUT CELLAR CHAMPIONS
JIU JITSU EXPERTS
ARE TRAINING HARD
Robinson and Yokoyama Drill Away
for Clash of American and orl-
entail styles of Wrestling
June &c

With the securing of the signature
of Eddie Robinson to a contract to
wrestle Yokoyama, the jiu jitsu cham
pion of the world, the match is now
assured and Promoter M. Hugh is rest
ing easier.
There are many persons in this sec
ton of the country who do not have the
slightest idea as to what the jiu tttsu
game really is. For the benefit of those
who are not acquainted with the sport
might be told that it is a game that
replaces boxing among the Nippons
and is studied by them from their in
fancy. 1t is not a game that anyone
p -sesing the slightest degree of cow
ardice in their makeup has even a
speaking acquaintance with. 1t is
game that tries mems nerves, as the
opponents of the art make the nerves
the target towards which they' shoS
their unerring holds. 1t Is furthermore
a bone breaking game, as played by
one who is up in it's mysteries and
science AS an opponent is not defeat
ed until he is in a Helpless condition, it
is up to the one who gets the surest hold
to secure 1t in as short a space of time
as is possible. AS compared with the
AngloSaXon game, it is truly bar
barous, as the followers of the latter
method are aware that the catch-as-
catch-can Is one of leverage in securing
a fall and is a much more scientific
one. Were Yokoyama to wrestle in the
American style, Robinson would not
be long attaining a result, as he is
one of the few men who has followed
the game for quarter of century,
and never once met with defeat, both
in jiu 1itsu tanning and the other styles
of f11fror iC assured and
that is that those that attend the match
must not expect for one moment that
they are going to a pink tea, or they
will be disappointed sadly. The con-
test to take place Saturday evening,
June 26, and from the interest that IS
shown there will be a large attendance.
Both Robinson and Yokoyama are
training hard for the bout, and already
Robinson has reduced considerably In
weight. He will be at about IT'S pounds
when he meets Yokoyama.
When the discussion over the terms
arose, it developed that the disputes
between the two men came up after
they had talked over going into
partnership, with Robinson as manager
of the Jap. Just when they had
reached the business portion of the
talk, Yokoyama discovered from clip
pings possessed by Robinson that the
latter was the man who defeated Yoko-
yama's two friends in Salt Lake and
put the jiu jitsu game out of business
there. Then a hot dispute arose, and
the Jap challenged Robinson. with the
purpose of avenging the former de-
feat of his countrymen.
Robinson Is practising the use of the
Jacket which the orientals wear in this
game. and after two days use of 1t
declares his confidence in his ability to
down the representative of the island
kingdom.

RIFLE TEAMS Will sHoor

Many OF the conditions of the last
shoot between members of company
of Pasadena and the team of the South
ern California rifles have been altered
for the next contest, which will be held
next Sunday on the Arroyo Seco range,
and it is hoped that as a result some
of the weakness of the Pasadena militia
sharpshooters has been removed and
that they may win from the crack
marksmen of the rifles.
Capt. Hutchins succeeded yesterday
in putting through stipulation that
both sides should use the Springfield
rifles. Last time company team used
the Springfield, while it's opponents
used Winchesters, giving them the adj
vantage, as Winchesters are double
star gagged" while the Springfields
are plain gagged. In the last shoot tile
Crown city team were outdone in the
rapid fire part of the contest.

is irregular from Crown Point to Cedar

Blue Ribbon Races.

Michigan never had better chance
to win the Merchants Il Manufac
turers' $4,000 stake with a horse bred
and owned in this state than it has this
year. Millionaires throughout the
country pay fancy prices for unmarked
trOtters with the hope of landing the
Detroit classic. Twice Detroit men
have succeeded, but not with horses OF
their own breeding.
The fact that mare that first saw
light of day i'm Michigan and was de
veloped in the state lends interest to
the NJ. IL NJ. which will be trotted dur
ing the blue ribbon meeting on the
state fair grounds, July 26 to 80.
Marie n. is the particular mare. She
was bred at Romeo and her sire was
owned by j. ii. Brown, of Detroit, who
won an NJ. IL NJ. with Stanley Dillon a
few years ago. Her dam, Dorothy NJ
was PAGER by Peeler, and took part in
a number of meetings in the state.
In the fall of 1907 Marie N, then
three years old, was given record of
2:2914 at Kalamazoo. Last year she
worked in 2:14 and during the winter
was sent to Geers at Memphis. How
well she has done for him is shown by
her victory at Peoria on July 3, when
she trotted the second heat in 20915
being the first Nj. ~ M. entry to beat
its record.
But the task cut out for Marie N, is
not an easy one. There are no less
than eight of the M. IL. NJ. field that
can beat 2:l0, which means that the
twentieth renewal of the stake will be
the most brilliant.
