Patrick Babe) Mcdonald. the new
idol of the athletic world, has agreed
to enter the weight events in open
competition in the X. of G.. games at
Olympic Park text Saturday.
Mcdonald is the national senior shot
put and 56-pound weight champion of
this year and one of the worlds great
est weight throwers in active compe-
tition. He held any number of other
important records.
The mention of McDonald's ~partici-
patton in the *. of c. events should
materially increase the attendance at
the games.
He is one of the biggest athletes in
the world, Weighing 2SO pounds.
The Irish-American giant came to
America from his home in Ireland
about six years g and only weighed
$50 pounds. Billy Quinn, now trainer
at Harvard. took him in tow and
placed him On the membership roll of
the new West Side A. c.. 1t was here

before him, especially the So. which is
now one of his favorite toys.
In 1906 the big fellow was invited to

on Even Terms With Cham
piOn Kramer-=BOt Men Due
to Reach Here from Salt Lake
This AfternOon--Plenty of
Racing for the Fans.

There viii be big doings at the Nelo-
Jackie Clarke were due to reach New
ark at 5 o'clock this afternoon from
Salt Lake and will be in the thick of
the fray of the saucer tomorrow.
They will get down to business and
try to settle that championship thing.
It will soon be over. but in the few
title races that are still to be run there
will be the bitterest fighting that has
marked the militant struggle for the
championship of 1911.
The fans are going to see some great
racing. Z The race is almost as close as
the famous championship two years
ago when Kramer won the crown by
the narrow margin of three points.
If Clarke wins the on-mile cham
pionship tomorrow, which is tAe feature
of the program, he will be on almost
even terms with Kramer. If Kramer
wins. his lead will be increased to 2
fairly safe margin. Alfred Goullet is
going to be a stumbling block for the
stars tomorrow. He is the dangerous
fellow that must be watched and,
while Kramer and Clarke are watching
each other, they will have to keep him
within their range of vision also or he
will fool both ON them. At New Haven
Thursday Goullet simply rode rings
around the rest of the pros and showed
a wonderful burst of speed. Goullet
is practically out of the championship
SO far as winning the title is con-
cerned, but he is going to win as many
races as possible and try TO finish close
to the winner. Goullet is now third,
The present standing of the riders is as
follows: Kramer, 45 points; Clarke. IS
points; Goullet, 81 points: Fogler, Il

points; John Bedell. 2 points; Krebs, !
point; Fem, 1 point; MacFarland, !

If st. Paul had another O'Toole that
team would make 1t interesting for the
leaders. Kansas City is not likely to
do any better, as its pitching corps has
been off color and the team has no
great batting strength. There have
been differences between players and
Manager Shay, which have handi-
capped the club to some extent.
Outside the pitchers. lone of the

MAJOR MACNATES
BUY MORE PLAYERS
BEFORE DRAFT TINE

Major league clubs are all busy these
days getting available good players be-
fore the draft season opens, when the
element of luck would enter into the
acquisition of the men desired.
Besides these, the magnates are also
pulling off trades among themselves
daily. Here is yesterdays list:
=
The H~ighlanders have bought two of
Rochester's stars in Second Basennan
Simmons and outfielder Osborn.
=
Manager Ryan, of Jersey City, an
nounced yesterday that he had sold
Shortstop Wilbur Roach to the Boston
Americans for $1,000 and two players,
one of them said to be Jack Thoney
and the other First Baseman Hap
Meyers. Ryan also said that Catcher
Tonneman will return to the Boston
Red Sox att I'll close of the Eastern
League season.
President Fogel, of the Philadelphia
National League Baseball Club, an
nounced that Pitcher Rowan, of the
local club. had been traded for Pitcher
Curtis, of the Chicago Nationals. The
latter was traded to Chicago earlier in
the season by Boston. 1t was also an
bounced that Fred Beebe, another local
pitcher. and a cash consideration is to
be given for Catcher Killifer, of the
Buffalo team of the Eastern League.
=
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 19.-Manager
Charles Graham. Of the Sacramento
Coast League team, announced the sale
to the Boston Americans of Pitcher
Herb Byram and Third Baseman
Jimmy Shinn yesterday. Graham gets
two players in exchange. but did not
make public the amount Of ash con-
sideration nor the names of the players
=
BOSTON, Aug. 19.-Cy Young. the
veteran pitcher, who was uncon-
ditionally released by the Cleveland
American League baseball management
several days ago, will report to tht
Boston Club of the National League
tomorrow.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. 49,
Pitcher Lessard, of the Columbus
American Association team, is to have
a trial next eason with the Cincinnati
Nationals. Manager Frfel

bah.
Other players bought are Mayer, a
pitcher from Albany, Ca; Sitton. a

a good road team and a mediocre clun
on it's own lot. A reason for this Is
said to be the hostility of some Co.
lumbus fans towards some of the play
ers.
The Millers have had their slump.
In the first month they rolled up VIC
tories as II they were going to mako
another runaway ace of it. Then ad-
versity struck Joe Cantillon's camp.
The pitchers went to the bad, and by
the first week in July the champions
dropped into fifth place.
Cantillon rushed new blood to the
rescue, notably Peters, a Cotton States
League recruit. whose pitching has
been phenomenal. Dave Altizer, turned
back by Cincinnati, filled an infield
hole. He was a big factor in last sea
sons victory. "Rube" Waddell has
come back" during the past month.
1t seems Manager Joe has tanned the
eccentric southpaw, for "Rube' has
won consistently.
The confidence instilled through hav-
ing captured one championship is a
big asset to the Flourtown athletes in
their present hunt for the bunting.
