RAINES KEEPS
IN CONDITION
Training Hard for Race
With Johnny Hayes.

AL. Ralnes, the plucky little run
ner who Is to meet John j. Hayes,
the Olympic Marathon winner, in a
twelVe-mile race in the Auditorium
Tuesday night, is keeping in condi-
ton in New York state. From re-
ports received as late as today, he is
in top notch form and is ~jubilant
over the fact that he is to be welded
to what he claims to be "the best
girl on EARTH" in a-short time.
Johnny Hayes has no fear of de-
feat at the hands of Raines. 1t is
true that one who has won the
worlds Marathon honors should not
be afraid to meet men who have not
attained such success, but 1t is
thought that in Raines the Olympic
champion will find no easy PROPOSE
ton. Large size photographs of
Hayes, in running attire, are being
displayed in windows of ONE of the
local stores along Smith and State
streets.

years ago, and was given a tryout
last year with Dave Driscoll's New

managership and is expected to land
1t. He has the entire crowd with
him, and should make a sterling
manager. Walter Connect, who holds
down the catching position, is being
freely spoken of as captain and
should give satisfaction.
Urgent efforts are being made to
have the field improved this year,
and in time for the opening game,

AthIstics' Star Keeps Up Running Fire
OF Jawino During Game.
Few baseball fans know that Eddie
Collins, the great second baseman Of
the Philadelphia Americans, Is not
only a rival Of Johnny Evers in field
Ing, hitting and base running, but also
in jawing and In yelping at other per
formers. The impression seems to
prevail that Collins Is a brilliant ball
player, but a silent ono. He Is far
from silent, being one Of the noisiest
ball players there are. His face always
is open, and some Of these days he will
tnhale a grounder II he isn't careful.

Thus doth Mr.. Collins keep things
stirred up vocally throughout a game,
and the effect upon the Athletics is the
same as produced by Johnny Evers'
diamond tribes when he upbraids
the Cubs. And maybe the Cubs didn't
miss that flow Of language in the

Many Of the Riverside Victories
were secured against strong teams,
