a T the First Regiment Armory,
~ Sussex avenue and Jay street,
tonight, the Father Mathew r.
A. b. Society will hold its annual In
door meet. All of the crack nne
Of the local Catholic clubs are entered.
and some of the big stars from New
York will also compete. The games
will start promptly at 8 o'clock. This
is h second indoor venture of this
Catholic Organization. Some good
sport is promised.
Moe Smith, Patsy Kline's nag
has given his boy a gold diamond
studded penknife. He promises the
local man a diamond-studded watch II
he puts Abe Attell to sleep Friday
night at the National Sporting Club.
Smith is saving his money even now
for the 1~ast-named article, for he was
a witness Of the Joe Coster-Attell bout
Monday night. He thinks Patsy has a
good chance, not to outlook the cham
pion, but to put him to sleep. Smith
says that Attell fought for all he
knew how in the last two rounds "Ill
forget the other rounds, but Tn tell
ing you If Patsy had been in Coster's
place In these two sessions there would
nave been a new champion" Smith
may or may not be too %sanguine. The
writer believes, though, that Abe At
tell, if he Is not knocked out quickly
after he starts to slip. will be accused
of "stalling'' many q time lei he
really has slowed up.
Contrary to expectations, the grand
circuit stewards reelected Harry X.
Devereux president and w. P. Engle-
man, of Kalamlzoo, vice-president.
One of the surprises was the admis-
sion of the Goshen, N. Y, half-mile
track to the grand circuit. a step which
is strictly in the line off, progress and
n that will work untold good for the
future of the sport. 1t was also de-
cided that each association should APP
point it's own starter and presiding
Judge. which does away with the craven
image who has occupied the latter
position in the past,
Manager Joe McGinnity is negoti-
ating with the Public Service Corpora
ton, and arrangements may be mad
TO run a spur along the west side of
the new park. This will be much
more convenient for the fans han the
old way, when one would have to walk
down a block or so to get a car.
Manager Friel, of the Columbus
Club, is the latest to put in a bid for
Wade Killfer. the man who was to
succeed Larry Schla1y."
J John Camel declares hat the deal
whereby he was to get Manning.
Hughes, Foster and Mitchell plus a.
cash consideration in exchange for
Walter Blair was closed last summer,
when 1t was an ounced that Rochester
had received 81 300 for the star back
stop.
Joe Agler writes that he is in fine
trim, spending his winter hunting and
skating. II have received my contract
from the Newark Club and will sign"
says Joe. Like the other Tigers, he is
interested in the progress being made
on the new park. Joe will just about
burn up things next year.
The Eastern intercollegiate soccer
season, with elevens from Yale, Har-
ward, Cornell. Columbia, Haverford and
Pennsylvania, is about to start. No
mention is made of the Princeton team.
The manager Of the Fourteenth Ave
nue baseball team writes that he would
like 10 enter his team in Joe McGin-
nity.s parade on opening day, and says
that he hopes that the Tigers win the
pennant. Como on. boysi
10 the Sporting Editor Of the Evening Star:
see Young Kurtz's anage has
been talking around Newark abou
meeting Frank Kenney, of New York.
You can tell him for me that Kenney
Is only too glad to give him another
chance II he thinks he can beat him.
He can have q return date. WHINE take
ell. Kenney beat him all the way in
ten rounds. If Kurtz doesn't want to
go Kenney will meet any welterweight
in Newark. I think Kurtz's manager
is a sore loser. Any time he thinks he
has a nance Kenney will meet him.
BY kindly publishing this in your valuz
able paper you will oblige. Jack
Dougherty. manager Of Frank Kenney.
I will be In Harrison Thursday ready
20 do business. Kenney fights there.
Yours truly, JACK DOUGHERTY.
