Beachy, Hamilton
 And Robinson In
 $5,O0O Aero Race
Three Flyers Will Compete in Journey From New York to
 Philadelphia, Saturday

Lincoln Beachy and Charles K. Hamilton, two aviators who became we'll known to the Bridgeport public through the aviation meet at the are scheduled to fly with a third, Hugh Robinson of New York, for a prize of $5,0OO on Saturday. The race will be from New York to Phil adelphia.
 All three will use Curtiss aero known as one of Curtiss' stars, and Hamilton has just joined the Curtiss forces
 The flyers must travel fifty miles from the starting point, following as closely as possible the lines of the York terminal to Trenton. From Trenton they follow the Delaware River to a point opposite Market street in Philadelphia.
 One of the features of the race is an experiment as to the feasibility of letter and parcel delivery from aero planes. Each of the contestants will carry bags filled with letters, which they are to deliver at different towns on the route. How to weight these so they will fall true and not hit hard enough to injure anybody they might chance to strike is one of the problems of the race.
 A second feature of the contest is that this is the first time that an air race has been planned over a pre- scribed route. Any aviator deviating from the course will be ruled out by the judges.
 The contest is planned by the man. agement of the Gimbel stores in New York and Philadelphia and the Cur tiss Exhibition Company of Ham, mondsport. Flying from Governors Island the aNators will cross the Hudson River to the departm ent store at Thirty-third street and Broadway. There the official start of the race will be made and the contestants will have their time taken by members of the Aero Club of America. The fin ish is the Gimbel department store at Eighth and Market street, Philadel- phia.
 All the flyers will use the latest models of Curtiss biplanes. The ma chimes will be equipped with hydro pontoons, so it will be possible for the aviators to alfght on water with out damage to themselves or their machines.

JOE JEANETTE BEATS
 TONY ROSS ON POINTS

In a great ten round boxing bout Joe Jeanette whipped Tony Ross at the Twentieth Century A. .. New York, last night. It was slugging affair and Jeannette proved he was master. But in order to win he had to do his best He was fully extend- ed during the last half of the bout.
 Jeannette's blows were clean and effective. He had a left-hana jab dur ing the early rounds that cut open Ross nose and lips. In the last round he cut a gash under Tony's right eye, besides smashing his body hard and often. At infighting Jean- nette was far superior to Ross, and sent in many short-arm punches.
 The last round was of the whirl- wind order, with both men trying hard for a knockout. Ross had good right and with short right cross hook to the jaw he staggered Jeannette sew eral times. He had wild right swing that fairly circled Jeannette's body like a band. The punches to the kidneys hurt Jeanette.
 Jeannette worked his left jabs to Ross's jaw to good advantage in the first round and brought the claret from his opponents nose. Ross play

Strength is added to the extension subject through the fact that the se- ries which had been arranged with the New Haven City League had fall en through. It was to arrange for this series that the directors at the ring off at so early a date.

Mike DonIin Is
 Sold To Boston
 ByL Leader McGraW
Rumored That Former Giant SIugger Will Manage RustIers
 Next Season

Pittsburg, Aug. 2-Manager John ]. McGraw announced last night that he had sold OutfieIder Mike Don1in to Boston for a cash consideration Don lin, who is here, will join the Enust1ers in St. Louis immediately. As no otf- CT players are involved in the trade, it is believed that ,McGraw turned over the former starr and idol Of fas Polo Grounds in order Ao strengthen the Hub outfit for their gamsS with the rivals of the Giants. DonSap was led to understand when he joined ffs New York team several weeks ago that he would be turned over to some other club if McGraw could make no regular berth for him. ,E.s,s s.sos.s
 Donln is one of the old epsrd of the Giants, who landed two National League pennants for New York in 1901 and 1905 and a worlds championship from the Athletics in 1905. 1t was his tremendous batting in 1908 that kept McGraw's team in the race aad ne~ cessitated a post-season playoR of a tie with the Cubs in the fall of that year. t@as
 Donlin retired from the game in the spring of 1909 to engage in vaudeville. A few weeks ago he decided to return to the national pastime after bis H. lustrious histrionic contemporary. James Callahan, had demonstrated with the White Sox that 1t fs pos sible for the retired athletes to "coms back"
 It is believed around the National League circuit that Donlin will bs team next. year.

This club got away to a bad start, but lately have been setting the league afire by their playing. Last Sunday they chalked up their fourth straight win, while the Joes recorded their third straight loss. The Yosts and Eagles are about holding their Rocks are so active.

''Grad" Coaching Announced For
 Yale Baseball

Baseball at Yale will be the next sport of the university to be affected by the graduate coaching system. ac- cording to announcement by Yale athletic advisers. That the first step to be taken by Yale toward the re- turn to graduate coaching in drop ping John Kennedy as head coach of the Yale crew will be followed by a movement to mould the next years baseball team through a system en- tirely amateur, has now leaked out.
 In an interview Walter Camp, chief athletic adviser of the university, ad- mitted that baseball at Yale will be affected by the new system. He was inclined to believe that the entire coaching system at Yale will be more or less affected. Tt is expected that the baseball matter will be taken up shortly by Yale men interested in the welfare of next years baseball nine. It is thought that Capt. Dick Merritt of next years nine, will follow the same plan adopted by Capt. Romeyn of the Yale crew.
 MT. Camp refused to state whether certain coaches will be dropped alto- gether. That a vast change is inn pending at Yale, however,in the pres ent coach system is evident. The statements of the advisers who have been approached on the subject are significant.

Jack 0'Brien After Sam Langford's Scalp
Philadelphia Boxer Hurls Chal- lenge at Black Man For Mid-
 dleweight Title 1aT -rs

That young Philadelphia society bud, Phil lawn O'Brien is. loose again. lawn says in a lengthy telegram, prs- paid, of course, that he is willing to risk his status in Quaker City's 400" by taking on Sam Langford in a fs- tic seance. Whether he means what he says or is only looking for bit of advertising is not known. Here is the way O'Brien puts the case:
 Having challenged all the claim ants of the middleweight title and having received no reply, I wish 70 accept the challenge of Sam Lang ford, of whom all the heavies seem to be fighting shy. I am a middle weight and hold the light heavy weight title, but will permit Lang ford to weigh in at 16S pounds, the middleWeight limit that was in vogue some years ago when Jack Root was defeated by George Gardner at Fort Erie. Bob Fitzsimmons won the title from Gardner, and I beat ,Fitzsinn- mons for it. I am ready to bat tie within ten days after making a match. It is now up to Langford- I am training at Jimmy Dougherty's place near Chester, Pa, and am in great condition.
 JACK O'BRIEN.
 Light Heavyweight champion"
 Please note that Society Johnny says he will permit" Langford to- come in at 16S pounds. Rather decent of him, eh?

SNYDER IN
 GREAT FORM.
 BUT DEFEATED
Tom Tuckey Uses Whitewash Brush on Mechanics in
 Waterbury

The Champs were working in their old time form yesterday afternoon and gave an exhibition of baseball of the heart breaking variety that kept the 400 fans on edge throughout the nine innings. Incidentally the interest was not lessened by the fact that Gene McCann's Mechanics were the oppon- ents and when MT. Thomas Tuokey walloped that ball to left field in the ninth and scored the only run of the game the long strain on nerves broke with decided snap.
 The game went for eight and one half innings in pretty pitchers bat tie with Tabasco Tom having the bet ter of the going. In tbe first three innings neither team made a very serious bid for tally but things broke in the fourth and gave the fans a chance to use their lungs. For BridgepPrt. Litschi hit to left field but Crook bunted and Ahearn threw to Shovelin, retiring Litschi at second. Crook stole second and went to third on Ladd's fly to right field. Ruen was hit by Tuckey and stole second. 1t looked bad but Tuckey forced Kauff to hit short fly to Scanlon and the tension was over. Snyder pitched well.
 The first three men up for Bridge port in the ninth were retired, the first two by fast double play Lit schi first man up, hit a swift one toward third which O'Hara captured but threw low to Miller and Litschi was safe. Crook hit to Scanlon, who threw Litschi out at second and the return from Scanlon to Miller retired Crook at first Ladd hit a grounder to Miller who tost the ball to Tue key on first.
 Things started for Waterbury at the opening of it's half. .Shovelin walked to first on four poor ones. Miller started to bunt but made a mess of it. He then met one on the nose and smashed out a single to center. Shove lin being held at second. Scanlon sacrificed Snyder to Crook and Shove lin and Miller advanced base. Ahearn tried to lift two poor ones to the out field but failed. Nick, coaching on third, got nervous and ordered Shove line to steal home. There was but one man down but Shovelin nearly won out on the trick. The batter had two strikes and three balls and Um- pire Nallin called the pitch a ball, giving Ahearn his base. Tuckey was next man and he obeyed the calls of the fans to win his own game by smashing one to left field. Eley SC, cured the ball but partially dropped it. losing just enough time to give. Manning, who ran the bases for Mill CT a chance to score from second.

GAN PACKY M'FARLAND
 GIVE WEIGHT TO WOLGAST?

Packey Mcfarland may share the lightweight honors with Ad Wolgast after the fight in Milwaukee on Sept
 Is. Wolgast has made the match at a weight that will suit Mcfarland better than any proposition ever be- fore made to him by the champion, and it is a question now whether the Chicago lad will be able to take ad- vantage of the situation and grab off a share of the honors as result. Many think he will. The weight is to be 133 pounds at o'clock, which means that Mcfarland will enter the ring at about 137 pounds, while Vol gast will hardly scale over 132 at the most.
 Can Wolgast afford to give away that much weight to a clever man like Mcfarland? Ad thinks he can but there are many who think he is making a serious mistake, for McFar- land is different boxer to what the champion has been meeting and he can also punch when he has his strength with him, not being sapped away by making impossible weights It will mean lots of hard work for Mcfarland to make even tS3 pounds at 3, but he can do it and retain his Strength: according to Manager Thiery If that is the case then it will mean a hard proposition for Wolgast to face.
 Mcfarland and his manager have considered all these points before hand. There is no doubt on that score, for when Packey was asked through his manager to go ahead with the proposed match with Matt Wells he baked and said it would be impossible now. as he had to post a forfeit of $5,0OO to guarantee a return match with Wolgast over the long route. That goes to prove that Wolgast, while being confident, is taking no chances on losing in no-decision bout. He wants to be protected should the stockyards boy put one over on him, as he feels he is Packeys master over the long route no matter how the short one may ter minate
