Frank Kramer and Jackie Clarke.
Lawson has been training at Salt

the little fellow is riding In great form
Clarke had intended coming East with
Lawson, but the weather in the West
ern city was so warn the Australian
decided to remain there as long as pos
sible rather than come East and take
chances of finding the weather too cold
here for training.
The Swede thinks very well Of his
chances his season. Now that team

Kramer or Clarke, but as | nearly al
ways went 1t alone, while these boys
were hooked up in two and three-man

saw the mammoth structure he was
amazed. 81 expected to see a better
track than the old one" stated the
Swede. but this is beyond belief. tt u

when the game was in it's prime all
over the country, but this one has got

A BE ATTELL, the feather-weight
~ champion, who suffered another
injury to his left shoulder in his
bout with frankie Burns here last
Friday night, has been ordered by his
physician not to fight again for at
least six months and probably for a
year There is a possibility hat the
arm is so badly injured that Attell
will never be his former self in the
prize ring.
The enforced retirement mean a loss
of from $4,000 to $4,000 to the fighter,
who had mapped out a busy campaign.
One of his first matches was to have
been wit h Knockout Brown, whom
Manager Danny Morgan promised to
send against the little champion as
soon as Browns ear was again in
shape. Atteli rested more than two
months after the arm was first in
jured In his bout with Kilbane at
Cleveland, but the rest did not prove
long enough.

an expens in the neighborhood of $780,
900 and the erection of a new bicycle
track at V%ailsburg, involving in all an
expenditure of something like $4,000.
Both these undertakings are the
thoughts of the owners since the close
Of the last season.
Wiedenmayer's Park, as has been
said in this column, was the worst
park in the Eastern League circuit.
McGinnity has made it one of the best,
if not the best.
The old Vailsburg track, historic
though 1t was, was certainly a tumble
down affair and one calculated to fail
most any time a severe wind-storm as
serted itself.
The nav track, directly across the
street, on South orange avenue, will be
something to look at. Everything mod
ern and lots of things brand-new may
be noticed in he construction of the
new bicycle plant.
In fact, Newark can justly boast of
one of the best minor league baseball
parks in the country, and of a bicycle
track that has no superior in this coun-
try. The owners would not have built
either plant if they were not sure New
ark would support them. Therefore, the
charge that Newark Is not a good city
for sports is disproved. The managers
has even greater things in store in the
line of sports here.

To the Sporting Editor of the Evening Star:
We would be very much pleased to
have you publish in your sporting col
lmns our answer in reference to the
article which appeared In last nights
issue of the Evening STAR regarding
the matter of playing ON the West
Side oval.
We believe that the majority of the
baseball fans will admit that the Iron
side A. c. has been instrumental in
making baseball popular on the HILL"
and that we are entitled to have the
SAY" as to who should nave the llae
of the grounds on Sunday mornings.
About FIVE years ago we received a
communication from the Bay View
Wheelmen asking us to permit them
10 have the use of the grounds on SUM-
day afternoon, and they agreed to pay
one-half of the exEense for putting the
grounds in condition and any other
expense which might arise.
The only expense they have been put
TO has been one-half of the cost of
the bleachers. The balance of the
money expended for putting the
grounds in playing condition has been
borne by our organization
This agreement was entered into last
year, their previous communication
having been tabled when 1t came be-
fore our meeting.
We believe hat every baseball fan
n all others interested in promoting
athletic sports will not approve of the
stand taken by the B. ". w, and we
would state in conclusion that we IN
tend to play baseball this season, no
matter what contemplate or %unsports-
manlike. methods they may use.
Trusting you will publish this in
your next issue in the interest of fair
play We are, respectfully,
