Kramer Captures Another
Title Bicycle Race Easily

With his legs in bandages and his
arms wrapped tightly as a result of
q spill, Frank l.. Kramer, champion
of eleven seasons, demonstrated at
the Velodrome last night that he is
still peer of all pedal-pushers when
he defeated Alfred Grenda, the giant
Australian, by over full wheel, N
the one-mile national championship
race, the feature event of the big bike
card Kramer won, and did 1t with
apparently little exertion. The talk
that he has gone back" was put
under cover after his wonderful ride
in the title race. Grenda rode well
but not we'll enough to take the East
orange flier into camp. There Will
be some more fun Sunday, when the
two clash in a match.
Donald McDougall inaugurated the
amateur championships with five
points to his credit, when he grabbed
the quarter-mile title race for the
simon-pures last night. 1t was the
first championship event for the
simon-pures this season, but young
McDouga1l clearly demonstrated that
he will almost, If he does not coy
highest American amateur honors at
the close of the local season.
George Wiley, the diminutive pace
follower, showed his real form with
out trouble. Percy Lawrence was
second, two laps behind George,
while Menus Bedell strolled in third
with a pair of laps to the bad from
Lawrence.
ALI Grenda, Tricky Comes and Frank
Cavanagh were Kramer's opposers In
the one-mile race. The usual play for
positions was made at the start of the
big race. Kramer showed his skill by
stalIing behind Grenda. The quartet
travelled at snail's pace for four laps,
when Grenda. who dearly likes a fast
race, jumped out. with Kramer after
him. AS the riders entered the home
stretch the peerless American evened
up with the Antipodean rival. Now

Race Is Oldest intercollegiate
Sporting Event, Having
Started 90 Years Ago.

NEW LONDON, June 20.-Yale is
a slight favorite over Harvard in to-
morrow's boat races on the Thames.
The program of the Harvard Yale
rowing races to be contested tomor-
row over the Thames course is as
follows:
The aquatic duals between Harvard
and Yale, which began on Lake Win
nipiseogee sixty years ago. and which
were continued at Worcester, New
Haven, Springfield, and finally on the
Thames at New London, antedate all
other intercollegiate sport. There
have been many Interruptions since
that first struggle In the heavy work
ing boats, so that the regatta this
year is the forty-sixth meeting of the
two Oldest American universities In
what many of the graduates regard
as the American sporting classic.
The Interruptions came during the
war, In the early 70's and in 1896 and
1897.
The racing began with two-mile
contests, but the course was gradu-
ally heightened, and since 1876 1t has
been four miles. There have been
several attempts to bring it back to
three miles, especially after hard
contests when some of the young
oarsmen have collapsed under the
strain, but so far the effort met with
little announcement.
Yale Is credited with having won
% of the races and Harvard with %
so that Crimson victory this year
would tie the long series.
The fastest time ever made on thC
Thames was by the Yale crew of 1888
which covered the four miles in q
minutes and 10 seconds. The fastest
Harvard crew was that of 1878, which
rowed the four miles In 20 minutes
and 44% seconds. The slowest time

Fight for First Division
Berth Starts Here Today

The fight for ffth place and first
division berth begins today, when the
Toronto Maple Leafs, guided as usual
by Josephus Kelley. will clash with
Joe McGinnity's Tigers. Before to-
days game Toronto clung to fifth
place by the slender margin of half
game advantage over the Tigers.
while the Jersey City Skeeters, who
have dropped to the 800 mark, and are
fourth, are only one full game ahead
of the Tigers. Therefore. by tonight
there may be some interesting devel-
opments IL things break right for the
Tigers.
If the Tigers defeat the Toronto
team and Buffalo wallops Jersey city
the Tigers will be tied with the Skeet-
ers for fourth place tonight, and will
hold first division berth for the first
time since the race got under way.
The Pests and the Tigers would then
have a mark of .491.
The Toronto team has been greatly
strengthened since 1t was here last.
however, and the Tigers will have to
fight hard to capture this series.
Within the last two days Joe Kelley
has strengthened his team almost
SO per cent. Just look at the deal he
put over last night: In the first place
he secured the services of Bobby
Keefe, for seasons one of the hest
right-handers in this league while
with Montreal, and later a consistent
performer with Cincinnati. Hank
O'Day, manager of the Reds, con-
tributed Keefe to Kelleys lineup. No.

Cubs and the Phillies. No. is none
other than Harry Mccormick. one of

SENIOR BASEBALL TITLE
BATTLE ON FOR TOMORROW

Franklin Schools senior baseball
representatives and the Hawthorne
Avenue Public School nine, respec-
tive champions of the Northern and
Southern Senior Public School Base
ball League for the season or ls1l.
will battle in the first of series OF
games to decide the senior champion
ship of the city tomorrow afternoon.
The contest will be played at
Branch Brook Park.
The second game will be decideo at
Weeauahic Park Monday. while the
third. II. necessary, will be determined
by the toss of coin.
Hawthorne won the Southern non

which was touted as pennant-wln-
ner. a severe trouncing, the maj

lads hit him at will. On the other
hand, Allsopp, who did the heavy
work for the winners, pitched well
throughout and kept the seven hits
he allowed we'll scattered
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser., 1912-06-20

but now his team is certain to be q
contender.
The Tigers played five games IN
the series that wound up yesterday
the Buffalo Bisons winning tive
games and the Tigers two, while
another contest went six innings to
draw. With a little luck the Tigers
would have cleaned up four of those
FIVE games and would be in the first
division right now, but the Bengals
are having u tough tussle trying to
ascend to that 500 mark Two moro
victories will put them there.
McTigue, the ex-Boston National
southpaw, did not have anything that
puzzled the Tigers yesterday, and he
was scored on twice in the first and
once in the second before George
Stallings yanked him. King Brockett.
who relieved McTigue, did not have
anything worth mentioning except
a cast-iron cast TO back him up and
give him invulnerable support. When
eighth round they fell on Brockett
and smothered him for three runs.
Eddie Zimmerman. who has long
distance-hitting streak, which he
started on Saturday with homer, a
triple and a double, swatted out two
more three-sackers yesterday.
Harry Smith also got in one of his
place hits where no one expected him
to hit, and his liner went for three
bags. No outf1elder can lay for
Harrys hitting when he is in his
stride. He can place them with de-
lightful precision, and his three-sack
soak cleaned up yesterday with two
on base.
George Bell, be it noticed, is some
hitter, too. George makes hit in
every game he pitches. Yesterday
he had two safeties and drove in
two runs. When the pitcher is hit
ting a teams attack is strengthened
many points. Bill Collins also crashed
triple to left that had whiskers on
1t and narrowly missed the left field
field partition for a circuit swing.
Bill has come previously close to
making a homer several times this
season, and he'll turn the trick yet.
Bell pitched in his usual steady
manner yesterday, and only in the
eighth, when he received poor sup
port, was he in danger; but he pulled
out. and the Tigers sewed 1t up by
scoring thrice in the second section
of No. 8.

FRANKLIN ScHOOLBoY
HAS NO-HIT NO-RUN GAME

What is said to be a junior public
school record was established
by Thomas Stable, pitching for
the Franklin School junior team at
Branch Brook Park yesterday after
noon. He shut out the North Seventh
Street School nine without hit or a
run. Young Stables grand work was
due to his superb control. He did
not whiff many of his opponents. but
got the ball over the corners for each
lad who faced him, and as result
issued no passes. Stables pitching
this season will earn him a place with
the Franklin Senior team next year.
He has the makings of a nifty little
slab artist. The final score yesterday
was II to in favor of the Park Ave-
nue. boys.

To the Sporting Editor Of The Star:
II wish to make a statement
through the Newark Evening Star.
l, the manager of Young Perna,
would like to tell the public that my
boy received no payment after being
stopped by Billy Leary, who said he

the best he could. l like to know
the reason why he did not receive his
money they promised to him. Yours
