1t was once the custom to give credit
for steal when a runner overran a
base and was put out The rule pro-
vided a steal in such case. Still
that play did not happen often. and ar
fects the point at issue but little.
Too much latitude on the part of
some scorers always has existed, par
ticularly in crediting a steal on a
palpable muff by the man making the
throw.
The chief reasons, however, for few.
er stolen bases are these: The big
glove, the wide use Of the hit-and run
play, and partly in connection with the
latter, not giving a steal when the
runner is aided by batted ball. The
rule in vogue in 1890 allowed for a
steal even, when the ball was muffed
by the fielder, There was nothing In
that rule prohibiting the scoring OF a
steal when aided by a batted ball.

OLD-TIMERS GET
BACK into GAME

Chicago, Aug. 2O-The two-day auto
road races to be held at Elgin, ILL.,, on
August 26 and q under the auspices
Of the Chicago Motor club, is begin
ming to attract the attention of the
speed enthusiasts in all parts of the
country. Inquiries and reservations
continue to increase in number as the
date of the double event approaches,
and the promoters of the road contests
confidently predict sensational races,
which will eclipse the records made in
the Cope cup events last year. The
fact that the sanction for the national
road championships have been granted
in connection with the events has given
added impetus to the two-day meet.
While the club officers have but few
formal entries to date for the national
stock chassis road races, 1t has many
prospects in sight. Arthur Greiner, the
amateur. has named a National for
the Elgin national trophy race, and the
National Automobile company of Chi
cago has entered a National for the
Illinois trophy Two Coles have been
tentatively named from Indianapolis,
while assurances are given by the
Lozier, Benz Renult, Marmon, E. M.
F., Falcar, Black Crow, Cldsmobile,
Herreshoff and many others that they
will make nominations The Lozier,
which has been out of road racing for
a couple Of years, has goine so far as
10 prospect for headquarters at Elgin,
which is taken as a guarantee of the
cornpapv'S serious Intentions
Frank Kulick, one Of the old-time
racing men, contemporaneous with
Webb Jay, Barney Oldfeld Earl Kizer
and Louis Chevrolet, has determined to
have a try for the Fox river trophy.
This entry was made by Thomas ].
Hay, manager of the Chicago branch
of the Ford Motor company, whose car
Kulick will drive. At the same time
Manager Hay announced he would
have a second entry for the same race
as soon as he could find a driver.
The nomination of Kulick and the !
Ford is taken by the critics to mark
the re-entry into the racing game of
the Ford company, which was one of |
the strongest supporters the sport had !
IN the earlier days. Henry Ford him |
self made motor history in this regard. |
He built the famous old 999, in which |
he drove a mile in 81 on the ice at |
Lake st. Clair and in which he made |
some phenomenal time at Ormond. |
Kulick, too, was just as famous as Mr..
Ford. His last great race was in the
Detroit twenty four-hour event, in
which he and Lee Lorimer made a
worlds record.
In order to properly handle the races
Chairman Clinton and his associates
on the contest board Of the Chicago
Motor club have selected the officers
who will be in charge of the meet. |

LANGFORD ROSE
LIKE JOHNSON

The history of Sam Langford, who is
trying to get match with Johnson for
championship fight, is strangely
similar to that of Johnson. Johnson
started life as a roustabout on the CAL
weston docks and bummed his way
INTO arenas to see fistic struggles in
the old days.
Five years ago Sam Langford was
hunting place to sleep in Boston.
AT that time Joe Woodman was run
ming a fight club in the Hub city. TAX
ing pity on Langford, Woodman all
lowed him to sleep on the plank floor
ing under the ring with the watchdog
for bed fellow. Sam hung around
and helped clean the clubhouse and
Gid other odd chores. He gradually
drlfted into the graces of Woodman
until he was the janitor of the club

which was by the way his first rec
ommendation to Woodman

ment at the club and the janitor ask
ed to participate in the place OF the
absent boxer. He made his plea to
Woodman, but Joe disliSed the idea of
good jauitor being a bum fighter,
so he waived him away and told him
to go down to the amateur tourney
and get fair start there where the
game would not be so tough.
On the next Monday morning Joe
Woodman nearly keeled over when he
saw the janitor Of his club wearing a
good watch, the first prize in the tour
ney. Woodman had staked his jani-
tor in the tourney and had loaned him
lighting togs to wear, thinking he
would return to the club sadder box
er but slicker janitor
The janitor staked himself to the
next tourney fee and asked Woodman
to be present and watch him knock
the novices spinning. A series of sue
cesses followed the janitor until
Woodman gave him his first profess
sional fight, which he won. Seventeen
dollars and fifty cents was the share
Of this fight. For two days after the
light, the janitor of Joe Woodman's
club was not to be found, and when |
he did appear he was logged in rail- |
nent which would have made Bert
Williams stage front look as silent |
rs the catacombs of Rome.
Fighting may be resumed at Coney |
ISLAND on a small scale. In the old |
lays Coney was big fight center and |
such big fellows as Corbett, Sharkey, |
Teffries and Fitzsimmons fought there,
However, the New York state law pro-
libits long fights there.
Tom O'Rourke of the National sport
ng club Of this city has been dick
ring for a place at Coney Island with
/ view of opening UP fight club.
Johnny Mooney, who brought Honey
Melody to this country, believes that
Boston may take the position which
Frisco used to hold in the fight world.
Mooney is now a matchmaker for the
Armory A. c. in Boston. During the
summer vacation Mooney has been
raveling through California, Oregon,
and other western states

and plenty. If that there am the case

didn't weigh more than 14S pounds
when l got into the ring. / suah give
away fifty pounds to that gent Johnson.
and he looked down on me Just like he
was on top the Singer, building
He suah thought he had a cinch with
a little fellow like me and he danced
around grinning fine. He had that nice
little left jab working fast and for a
few rounds he suah did have me but
ting my face against his left glove. For
five rounds he made more points than. a
hunting dog, and was No. 2 in the
parade.
Believe me when that sixth round
came around 1 was gettin' mad. I
couldn't reach that tall gent and got
desperate. I just rushed in to slam
him or die, and he cut loose with a
left hook that caught me on the chops.
Down l goes like a bag Of oats and
took the count of six.
When jumps up Mistah johnson les
nachully pokes me in the face with his
right and hits the boards again. This
time I stays down till eight seconds is
counted and you bet I didn't give that
gent chance to nail me again before /
got my hands up.
But he comes right after me, cuttin'
loose with lot of speedy ones. But I
was settled down. Those two knock
downs showed me / wasn't making any
Roadway by gittin' mad and was as
cool as cucumber. AS he comes in I
measures him and pastes him a honey
cooler with the right on his pie bitter.
Say, you ought to see that gent bust
into the ring floor.

to the end of the round, and he gets to
his corner before could soak him

Fob the mex nine rounds of that
fight Mistah Johnson didn't do a thing
but cover up, run away and hug. Fe
forgot everything but to take care OF
his features, and while I was trying
hard, I couldn't get him to stand long
enough to fight. He didn't have no
noah fight lef' in him.
Now, that's what makes me think I |
kin git that gent the mex time. Mistal
johnson would get tired runnin' forty
i've rounds, and I'd ketch him suah. But
tell you this, son make the ring flor

Johnson suah will try to jump out.

The green Of the leaves is more vivid
