Most of the players had on their sweater over coats. Upwards of 1.500 fans showed their loyalty. The practice before the game by the members of the New York team was even better than the game itself as the Giantlets did every stunt to keep warm.
 Manager O'Rourke used three pitch ers Pollard. Gibbs and Mccarthy of which the first appeared to the best advantage. Three catchers were also used. La Vigni. McAloor and Jamieson. Of this trio the latter showed to the best advantage. He had to go some Jamieson is built on the lines of Dutch" Sherwood. looks Ike him and plays like him. If he is as good as the local lad the fans will have cause for rejoicing. Not much of a line could really be gotten on the local players.

Two more came in the fourth: Meyers again drew a pass and came home when Simmons hit to deep right center on which that player was caught trying to stretch into triple on relay from Ladd to Hit to Miller Weimer singled to left and came home when McAloor threw the ball into center field to catch him trying to steal second.

a The Cfovers would like a game with any fast team in the city or out of town for Sunday afternoon at the Mud Flats. Yesterday afternoon at Sea- side Park this team defeated the South Ends 7-5. Jenner and Egan were on the firing line for the winners and Rocky Farrell and "Swampy"~ ~Wha- ley for the losers. The Clovers now think they are in a class to play the E. c. & B.

.DORANDO AN ITALIAN IDOL
 IN THIS CITY
He Will Have to Win Wednesday Night or D.splease a ThGnsand of His
 C0uatrymen.

ANY YOUNG RUNNER WHO WANTS TO MAKE HIS DEBUT IN LONG DISTANCE RACING GAN ENTER 15 MILE AMATEUR EVENT.
 Any of the young athletes who are
 runners and who desire to make their | first appearance in a long distance contest should not fail to enter the 15 mile amateur race which is to be 8
 preliminary to the professional race at | the Park City rink next Wednesday night. Dorando. the champion long | distance runner of Italy. who lost the l Olympian Marathon to Johnny Hayes by a hair, will appear in the profess sional race against two crack profess sionals. Seats will be arranged about | the track to accommodate 2,500 people and a band of music will play stirring airs during the races. The prizes of fered in the amateur contest are four handsome loving cups.
 Fully 1000 Italian citizens will be present to shout for Dorando. but if Bob Hallen and Mike Spring come here there is a possibility that these two | crack runners. each running half of l the distance against him, may be able | to defeat the little Italian chap as they did Johnny Hayes at New Haven on March 6.
 If Springs and Haalen cannot be | matched another pair of crack runners will be. A delega tion of Italian citi-
 zens went to New York today to make
 the match and incidentally to let Matt Maloney, who finished fourth at the New York Derby, know that there was chance for him to meet the Italian
 champion in this city if he cared to
 run. It is not believed that a match
 can be made for Maloney because of
 other races he has signed for. Brid exporters who have never exper- fenced the thrills of a long distance
 running match with cheering crowd
 present and a band of music to en-
 liven the event. should not fail to see
 this one. John L. Sullivan was never
 more popular idol with the Ameri-
 can boys than Dorando is with the en-
 thusiastic sons of Sunny Italy.
