WILL GIVE ATHLETICS
HARD FIGHT FOR PENNANT.
Jennings Optimistic of Detroit's
Chances if Pitchers Are Riqrt.

Jennings is very optimistic for De-
troit concerning next seasons outlook
and says that if Pitchers WiIletts,
Mullin and Summers are in condition
he expects to give the Pkila delpllia
Athletics a hard fight for the flag. He
thinks some of his new material will
surely make good and is especially
impressed with the work of Del Drake,
who played center field for Wilkes
barre last year.
Speaking of trades that were Of
fered in New York, Hughey stated that
he had emphatically refused a propos-
al by Boston to give him Pitcher Wood
and Catcher Carrigan for Catcher
Schmidt and Pitchers Mullin and
Summers. He also turned down a
couple of offers Involving Outffelder
Mcintyre. :
Concerning the proposed trade of
Cobb TO Washington for johnson, Jen-
nings said such a deal would Zoe sill. '
and that Cobb would not be given for
q couple Of men along with johnson.
The latter is a great pitcher said
Hughey, but Cobb. is far more val
liable. He is a great drawing card in
the first place. and then he's undousot-
edly the American leagues greatest
all around bali player. While any ac-
cident to Joflnson's arm would make
him valueless. Cobb might injure his
throwing wing and still be of the
greatest value on account of his bat
ting, base running and fielding.

UHLAN'S MILE MARK
THE YEARS SENSATION
The Harvester Another of the Brilliant
Stars of the Harness World.

Nineteen hundred and ten will rank
among the most memorable years in
the history of light harness racing. It
was re-emlnent1y year OF record
smashing, and when the returns were
all in they formed a magnificent teS-
timony to the progress which is be-
ing made in harness speed evolution.
OF course, Uhlan's name leads all the
rest" In 1903, Lou Dillon placed the
worlds trotting record at 1.5S IL,
runner preceding her. Then the pow
ers that be, apparently aghast at this
onslaught ON the scythe- got
busy and prohibited any further rec
ord breaking behind runners. While
Louis front runner had been hind
rance rather than a help to her, be-
cause she was never persuaded to fol-
low it closely enough to get much if
any. benefit from it in the way of
breaking wind resistance. to the aver
age horse such a pacemakef meant a
gain of seconds. Hence when the fiat
went forth, mo more runners in front
of horses going for records with
Louis 1.58 IL marked up on the black
board, it looked as il a stone wall had
been built around the trotting cham
pionship that it would take genera
lions to SurTnount.
For seven years no horse was able to
approach it. But in 1910 Uhlan proved
himself the horse that the world had
S.
hope of. 1t is true that he did not
beat LOUIS record, neither did he quite
equal it. But out in the open, and
under circumstances which were in
some respects decidedly not In his
favor, he trotted in 1.53 3-4, showing
that stone walls do not a prison
make" in the trotting world as else
where, and proving himself a horse
truly f'above ordinances'-one able to
take UP the handicap which official re-
action had placed upon all trotters of
championship capacities and to over
come it.
The year also brought us another
long awaited champion. Ever since
Cresceus 2-02 1-2. broke the stallion
record in 1900, he had stood unap-
preached among performers of his sex
and gait. Occasionally a horse would
appear that threatened his supremacy
but always the would be rival stopped
short of any real rivalry-until the
advent of The Harvester. Three times
during 1910 this sensational young
stallion beat the record of Cresceus.
First, in the third heat of race he
clipped off the fraction, making it 2.0z
even. Later, against time, he made
two more reductions, one to POI la
and the other to 2.01.
A year which brings forth two such
performers, with such performances
to their credit, IJhlan and The Har-
vester, is assuredly an "annus mira
Bills But 1910 was marked by a
number of other things well nigh as
marvellous.

His Close Personal Friends.

There are two types of baseball
cranks that poster ball players espe-

letters anonymously and tells the play

himself and proceeds to tell how good
they are. Ty Cobb. the Tiger star, met
one of the latter kind on train last
summer. Worse than that, the fellow
was not only a baseball crank, but
also one of those purity IN SPORT re-
formers. He held for cleanliness for
craftsmanship and Cobb was with
him. Then he got to talking about
tricks turned by ball players to gain
advantages, and he decried them as
uns portsmanlike Finally he said:

you. I have read things that gave me
an idea totally incorrect of you and
