Grand Circuit Jumps are
Much Longer Than Usual

Those who campaign on the grand
circuit this year will have some
travelling to do. Horses who swing
from Indianapolis to Columbus will go
over 2.i00 miles. which is by far the
greatest distance in the history Of the
big show.
For IL weeks the men who engage
In promoting light harness racing for
pleasure and profit will be buster than
during any season In recent years.
This is taken as healthy indication
that the light harness race Is becon,-

the running tracks lock their gates.

SCORING OF RUNS EASY
IN THE WESTERN LEAGUE

II was evidently mighty easy TO
score runs In the Western league last
season, for sixteen players were able
to score 100 times or more. AS a
rule, league that turns in two or
three century makers is considered
doing well. Eight OF the sixteen were
contributed by the Sioux City and
Denver clubs, which finished one-two.
Ancreas OF Sioux City, who hit only
247. scored 1877 times, although he
made only 141 hits. Lee Quillin Of
the same team scored 133 runs. Neigh
bors lis and Fenlon, who Is about as
agile as a rhinoceros, 106. Denver's
quartet were Dolan and Beall, each
with 12s, Lindsay with 126 and Lloyd
with 10S.

WITH THE
SPORTING
EDITOR

TO. Dick Harfst's team certainly looks
like most able body of basketball
tossers. The Y Ia confident OF re-
tanning the city title. and its oppon-
ents from Detroit are just as sure
that they can humble the Christians.
Henry Ordeman, the Minneapolis
wrestler, hasn't done much this sea
son, but as soon as he got squared
away he booked engagements with a
rapidly that is startling. Ordeman
does not talk at meeting the best and
within a period OF three weeks will
tackle Hackenschmidt, Zbyszko and
the peerless Frank Gotch.
Trying to dispose Of this trio GER
tainly is a task that might tar the
capacity OF the most diligent expon-
ent OF the mat game. Hack Is the
FIRST man that Ordeman meets. That
bout comes of this evening at Min.
ncapolis. Then Ordeman comes to
Detroit, Monday, Jan. 20, to struggle
With Zbyszko at the Light Guard
arInory. He will show here under
the auspices OF the Wolverine Ath-
letic club. Then he hurries TO Chi.

Hhe threw one burly, Monday night.
so hard he landed wrong side up and
was injured. Zbyszko was suffering
from blood poisoning few days ago
but seems to have recovered.
This Ordeman man made quite a
local reputation for himself when he
trounced ED Fenby SO easily at the
last Wolverine entertainment. II he
gets away well with Hack and the
Pole he ought to give Gotch quite an
engagement, although there are few
wrestling fans who believe that any,
body can throw the champion of ali

BY HARRY NELLY.

The decisive manner In which the
~. M. c. A. basketball team beat the
Toronto i've last night has caused
Detroit fans to wonder IL the Y team
has strengthened until IL Ia quite
superior to the other fives nj this
city. Although the score of Monday
nights contest favored the home
team only two points, yet the ad-
vantage really was considerably
greater because the home payers
fniled to take reasonable benefits
from the fouls made by the opposl-
ION. Out OF IL chances for free
Throws, the Y man who did that part
,cf the tossing put the ball IN the
baskets only three times. The Detroit
* beat the opposition by scoring
from the field. More effective foul
ehooting would have increased the
lead Of the locals materially.
Either the Detroit Y team has
strengthened materially or Il enjoys
great advantage playing on Its own
floor. Possibly. the Toronto team suf-
fers more from being away from
home than the local team benefits by
being on a court with which Il Is
familiar. In Toronto the gymnasium
Is small. q fact that has worked
.aeainst teams from this city. The
'6paldings attribute much OF their
poor showing In the Canadian town
70 lack OF space.
