BY JAMES c. ISAMiNGER.
In PHILADELPHIA North Americana


After training the glasses on the
Athletics, a spectator is convinced
that the Mackmen are even better
than last season, when they won the
pennant with 81 points to spare.
Youthful Mackmen like Collins,
Coombs, Barry, Baker and Oldring
are better this year than last. They
are players who are still coming; not
the kind who are standing still or go
ing back. :
Eddie Collins is the same old speed
king. Right in the very first inning,
he stole second and third in success
sion, and was sprint marvel all
through the game. Edward the VIII.
didn't delay one second TO show
Philadelphians that he was still there
In his chosen field Cf endeavor. Col
Inns is a confirmed star and will again
show heights In second basemanship
that no competitor can attain.
While dealing chapter on Collins,
II might be added that he Is the great
est player in baseball today. He is
the Wagner of yesteryear. The only
player who might dispute Collins
right to the highest honors Is Tyrus
RAYMOND Cobb, of Georgia and Michi-
gan The writer picks Eddie in pref
erence to Tyrus solely because he
thinks an infield knockout is more
valuable to a team than an outheld
knockout.
Both are wonders in every tributary
of the game with Cobb slightly the
more powerful man with the stick,
sensational as the Quaker classicist Is
in that department.
With no more illness in his family,
Frank Baker, the Trappe ticker OF the
pill, should play even more sensation
ally than he did last season, when
there wasn't the slightest complaint TO
make about the third basing at Shibe
park. Look for Baker some day 20
top the batting list issued every au-
tumn by Bancroft Byron Johnson.
The muscular third baseman is a
whale at the bat and drives the ball
with amazing vigor. Frank made six
home runs In four games under south
ern skies and has started OF the year
as IL he is going to ignite the Ameri-
can league.
Barry Is another baseball progress
sive who should go better in 1911
than In 1910, Notwithstanding the good
copy he turned out last season.
Hogan, well-put-up California
youth, looks like the merchandise.
III he can shake of basehits from the
deliveries OF fast-set pitchers, he
should reside here indefinitely He
showed enough hitting ability Satur-

THIRD WHITE TO
BOX At WINDSOR
The Wagner" Who Meets Trott Is
Merely Another Member of
Famous Family.

In the windup at Windsor tonight,
Detroit devotees OF boxing will have
an opportunity of seeing a third mem
Der OF the famous White family from
Chicago. This is Billy who meets
Sammy Trott, Of Columbus, for eight
rounds at 131 pounds.
Billy Is fighting as Wagner" to
avoid confusion In nomenclature. His
brothers-Jack and Charlie-have had
considerable trouble In keeping their
records from getting mixed up. When
third brother started boxing at
about the same weights, there was no
chance for anyone to keep them all
differentiated
Billy is said to be the hardest hitter
OF the family, but lacks the cleverness
OF his more experienced brothers.
Trott Is well enough known at Wind
sor TO warrant the certainty that the
White-Wagner person will have to
battle to win.
Like his brothers, Wagner boxes
as a member OF the Gilmore string.
Fred Gilmore is here, I'm charge OF him
and will be in his corner tonight.
In the semi-windup Tommy Hudson
meets Pat Dugan, of Toledo. Hudson
used to fight windups but made a bad
showing In his last one and Is now
working his way back up the ladder.
lie is consequently out TO make a
showing on the person OF Dugan. A
wrestling bout and four-round cur
tain-raiser complete the program.

DETROIT CARS IN
INTERNATIONAL
MOTOR RACE
Lozier Company Enters Two OF Its
Famous White Bonneted Crea-
tons and Names
Pilots.
Milford and Tetzlaff Selected as
Pilots; Each Has a Sensa-
tional Record.

Three of the famous, white-bon-
neted Lozier cars, which were the
marvel of the automobile racing sea-
son OF 1910 have been entered in the
500-mile International Sweepstakes
race to be held at the Indianapolis
Motor Speedway next Memorial Day,
May 80.
AT the wheel of these famous cars
will be Ralph milford. National Road
Race champion o: 1910. and Teddy
Tetzlaff, holder OF the American road
race record and OF the American
Speedway 100-mile record, regardless
OF class The third Lozler car is en-
tered by DR.. w. II. Chambers OF Nc
keesport, Pa, and will be piloted by
Harold Van Gorder, an eastern driv'
er, who has figured more or less prom
inently in minor events. The car
which he will drive is regular
stock model, forty-six horsepower, q
duplicate of the cars driven by Null
ford and Tetzlaff.
Tetzlaff has, perhaps, achieved
greater measure OF success during the
time he has been driving than any
driver who has come into prominence
during the last two or three years
He has taken part in only three races
within the last year, but won all three
of them. He holds the American road
record. and his recent victory on the
Los Angeles mile track when he de-
feated Ralph De Palma and his nine
ty-horse-power racer in lO0-mile
match race in the phenomenal aver
age time OF S1.0S miles per hour, In
dicates what may be expected OF him
in the circuit racing.
Ralph Milford gained national
reputation when he drove a Lozicr
to victory in the Elgin road race at
Elgin last August.
The announcement was also made
by the Lozier Motor company that
Lozier cars will compete In all the
National Circuit events OF the season.
This decision will have an important
bearing on the racing situation, in
view of the fact that the Lozier cars
not only won the national champion
ship, but the driving of milford, Tetz'
laff and Koran in the big races last
year indicates that the Lozier car will
do much to shape the racing history
this season.

NEW YORK, April 5.-If local op'

say 1t is to solve the liquor question

day, thinks It might also solve the

The anti-racing laws, like many
other reform measures, were forced
on the statute books by Legislators

matter said Croker. why not let
interested parties decide such legisla
