Zimmerman negotiated the bases in
the fast time of fourteen seconds, while
Larry Schlany won the accurate
throwing event.
Thirteen hits. four bases on balls int
seven errors spells the defeat of the
champions of the City League. In the
third inning the Tigers put four men
across the plate, and from then on,
with the exception of the seventh,
scored at the rate of n run in each
inning.
The fireworks in the third started by
Brady working Knoth for a base on
balls. Then Louden repeated. Louden
was then caught at second. Schlafy
then singled to right field, scoring
Brady and Kelly. Nothnagle then
bungled Gettman's nasty bounder, and
then Jake and Larry worked a double
steal, Schlafly bringing In the third
run. Jimmy then scored Gettman
by singing over Menchner's head.
From then on it vas a case of the
Tigers fooling with their opponents.
Experience old in every move, and, If
they had wanted, the Bengals could
have scored more.

refused to ride. liver Lawson simply
started to cover himself, but soon
quit.
That these men refused to ride when
MacFarland made his kick was taken
by many to mean that tears
of a combination against him were not
unfounded. 1t was claimed that FOG
Ter, Root, Hehir, Pye and Lawson were
out to pocket Kramer. That might be
true, but Referee Kelsey, who Is any
thing but unfriendly to Kramer, could
break that up by some disquaiinca-
lions. If that Is the reason Kramer
sprang the rule, it isn't very commend
able on Kramer's part, as teaming was
prohibited and both sides agreed not
to have 1t.
The termination of the bitter sea-
sons rivalry was not all that could
be desired, and that's saying 1t "easy."
How much better would 1t have been
for the two big ones of the cycle game
If they had fought it out on the track
instead of having the fiasco that devel-
oped. Kramer is a fox; in fact, always
was. At the last minute, after every
thing had been fixed for a straight
away five-mile race, he sprang the rule
which provided that the race should be
run in trial and semi-final heats
| Referee r. f. Kelsey allowed the a
Orange boys protest, ordered the pro-
gram changed and started a mix-ur
that has made cycle history. FLOYD
MacFarland soon got wind of the new
turn of affairs. and he was after Mr.
Kelsey in a fury. A heated argument
ensued at the judges stand. Mac
declared that his man would not ride
IL the program was changed. Kelsey
had the rule book in his hand during
the Storm" He pointed to the book
for MACS" benefit in order to stor
the argument, but the fanky one
promptly knocked it out of the ref
eree's hand. UP to the last minute
as Kramer and others who were to ride
in the first heat stood nearby, Mac
Farland had hopes for the original
program, but Kelsey wouldn't change
again, and pretty soon the riders were
on for the first heat of the champion
ship and Mac" and Clarke were or
their way to the dressing room.
That's the first time in my life
ever disappointed a crowd" said Mac
to the scribes; but I won't give in
That's Kramer's trick. He let this rule
business go to the last minute
Kramer won his heat, his semi-fina'
and final from a poor field, Charley
Stein, Krebs and Ellington being his
opponents in the final.

Jake Gettman was not the "only peb-
BILE on the beach" yesterday, for the
Ironside A. c. presented Manager
Henry Glassen with a handsome gold
watch, n his able assistant, Frank
Kloss, with a gold signet ring, and the
battery, Knoth and Welsher, with gold
rings. They were all suitably engraved.
That watch was just as big to Casey
as McGraw's contract and salary.
Don't let anyone tell you that the
Tigers toyed with the City League
champs. Jake Gettman robbed several
of them OF extra base hits and one Of
a homer.
Gus Lang pulled off a couple which
came near matching 'eat 'em up"
Jake's.
Bobby Knott was wild all the way
through. Every base on balls he gave
developed into a run.
Bobby Knoth had the satisfaction of
tanning 81 Parkins, and n wise guy
dropped a five case as a result.

stuck by his 1eclsion: Referee Kelsey
proved his season-long Incompetence
the way he handled matters, switching
after 1t had been agreed to in confer
ence that the race should be straight
away. The rule had been violated in
every other ive-mile championship race
held at the Velodrome this year.
Kramer was not actuated by n
up-to-the-rule spirit when he sprung
his surprise party. He really wanted
to sneak one over on his one-time

stuck to their guns. It's sad that
Floyd had to save his first d~isappoint-
ment of a big crowd for such a day
and such an occasion. Unquestionably
the race should have beer run in heats
and semi-finals, since the rule book
says so, but the of the end was
bad. All those technicalities should
have been fought out before the crowd
arrived and not after the newspapers
and the public had been led to believe
the form and the distance of the race
had been settled On after nearly "a week
of pickering. The e~leventh-hour kick
