THB Vanderbilt cup race and the
grand prize, the two feature
road races for automobiles, will
be held this year over the Savannah
Automobile Club course In &c -rgia, ac-
cording to announcement made here

EDWARDS, HEATING,
GILMORE and SCOTT
SEND in ENTRIES
These Cracks Will Compete in
BeIIeville G. C.'s Athletic
Games June 10.

THE mail yesterday brought the
entries of some of the best speed
boys in the game today, who
will match strides at the big athletic
games of the Belleville Catholic Club,
to be held at Hillside Park June 10.
r. T. Edwards, the senior quarter
mile champion. of the New York A.
c., will be one of the scratch men in
the 100 and 300-yard dashes. He has
won seventeen straight races, and
incidentally has stepped ten straigh;
quarter miles in 40 seconds.
w. ]. Heating, the Irish-American
crack. is another c~rack-a-jack who
should burn up the cinders in the
short events. His team-mate, "Yank''
Robbins, of Olympic fame, will also
be a contender II the 100 n 300-yard
dashes.
Eddie Gilmore. the Dominican
Lyceum crack. will enter in the half
mile open only. His ambition is to
get a chance at Abel Kiyiat, the Irish
American star, who will be on the
scratch mark with him. These boys
had it out in a special race at Jersey
City last April and you couldn't get
a sheet of paper between them at the
tape, Kiviat catching the judges eyes.
This should be a race well worth the
price of admission.
Louis Scott nosed out Willie Kramer
in a two-mile race at New York Sun
day, and Kramer wants revenge.
These are two OF the distance men of
national prominence who start from
scratch in the Belleville games, and
with Obermeyer and Bellars also in
the hunt there are going to be big
doings.
The 440-yard novice CLOSED to Belle
Vile c. c. members) is going to be
one of the big features of the day.
Every runner in the race has his own
coterie of trainers and hackers, and
Bellsville will be glad when the
tenth settles the question which is
disturbing the midnight peace OF the
town and keeps the police busy chasing
suspicious characters.

.CONLEY AND HEALEY
COME OUT WINNERS
At CENTRAL SHOW
These Boys Beat Willie Baker
and Young Kelly Respective
ly-Events Good.

IT. HE dual star bout at Troxler's
Central Institute last night be-
tween Arthur Conley and Willie
Baker and Carl Healy and Young
Kelly proved that, despite warm
weather, good bouts can be enjoyed
There were. as usual. surprises in store
for those who braved the heat, and
Carl Healy, who twice before was de-
feated by Kelly, came back and admin
istered a sound beating to his oppo-
nent. In the first round of their bout
II looked like a runaway race for Kelly,
but, starting with the second Kelly
lost ground. and in the final round was
compelled to hold to avoid the terrific
swings n well delivered jabs Of
Healy. He is deserving of all credit,
for he fought carefully and measured
each blow.
The other stan bout. between Arthur
Conley and Willie Baker, was a real
scientific match. Conley is the more
clever OF the W. and fought d mighty
good fight. Baker Is still in need OF
careful instruction, and. perhaps. will
some day be a good boxer. He can
stand a world of punishment and was
the receiver throughout. In the last
round Conley made a runaway of the
fight. with an avalanche of blows, and
had Baker covering all the time.
The semi-f1nal between Banty Lewis,
who is now one of the favorites, and
Young Diamond was a crackerjack.
Diamond, who is a rough-and-tumble
fighter. me. his better in Lewis and
bowed before some terrific blows. In
the second round he was floored with a
right wallop. but he got up and fought
back ganely. It's no telling what
might have happened to Diamond had
the gloves been small. Lewis carries
a wallop in either hand, and. while he
is fast at delivering, he is so evasive
that he slips about like an eel. While
Diamond landed many blows, there was
no steam behind them. and Lewis was
as fresh as a baby when he left the
ring. He cleanly defeated Diamond.
Jack Devlin. of Roselle, who is a pro-
tege of Dick Madden. only had to go
two rounds to show hat he was a bet
ter man than Jim Moffat. of this city.
In the first round 1t was apparent that
Devlin was the better of the two, and
after Moffat had taken all he cared 10,
both to the stomach and on the Jaw,
he, of his own will, left the ring. 1t
was well, for he was in for a terrible
beating.
Young Crotty, Of Bayonne, and Phil
Hearth, OF our town, fought four fast
rounds. Crotty had a shade. Young
Simmons, of Elizabeth. and Jim Cra-
ney, of Newark. fought an aver bout
"Rube' Harris, of Elizabeth, and Aus
tin Emmett, who is a regular, fought a
fast draw.
The star bout for next week will be
between Dave Dillon. of Hoboken, and
Kid Alberts, of Elizabeth.
