Long Floyd Mcfarland in a letter
to the Sporting Editor of the Eve
ming Star takes exceptions to state
ments made here that he, as man
ager of the Salt Palace track at Salt
Lake City, has treated Jackie Clarke
unfairly this year.
In reference to Clarke, Mcfarland
says: Clarke is riding just as fast
as ever. but Goullet has met him in
eight match races this year and has
won every time. 1t may be all right
for Jackie and his friends to kick,
but in justice TO GouIlet, who has
done nothing but ride like a cham
pion out here, l think l am entitled
to say something.
You can tell the fans for me that
i am coming back irrespective of
anyone, n will make Mr.. Kramer &
Co. ride Goullet or forfeit the cham
pionship, and further Kramer won't
have all the conditions made for
him. either.

Lewis and Hurley Are Both
in Shape for BOuf Tonight

Battling Hurley. of Passaic, and
Billy Lewis. of this city, are fit as
the proverbial dollar for their bout
at the Eleventh Ward Athletic Club,
Morris Park. tonight. The boys
never trained harder to be in the best
of condition than did these two lads.
Both realize that a win means be-
sides o glory and more bouts.
The winner of this event will be
carded at a future show with the best
boy that can be induced to come from
New York.
As far as an even match is con-
cerned none better than his one
could have been arranged. Both boys
weigh about the same, have the
same style of fighting and use the
same sort of blows. In fact the boys
are real battlers and furnish the kind
of goods that the members of this
club crave. If they do not give sat
isfaction no club ever did or ever will
get a bout that can.
Each lad has a large following and
they will be on hand tonight to chez

Fred Clarke, of Pirates
Is After "Rupe" Mills

7Laa. ~
For the third time within the past
few months Rupe Mills. the local
star first baseman, who is at pres
ent nursing a fractured arm. has
received an offer to enter big league
baseball. Fred Clarke, manager of
the Pittsburg National League Club,
was a guest al the home of the
Millses last night and make all kinds
of offers to secure the Worthington
player.
Although he stated he would not
consent to signing right away, Rupe
will seriously think W the matter.
1t was at the Roseville Stars Worth-
ington game two weeks ago, and the
very same contest in which the tall
blonde received his painful injury,
that Scout Howard Earl, of the
Pirates, was SO impressed with the
local boys ability al a ball-tosser.

In a cablegram received this norm
ing from Victor Breyer. the Euro
pean representative of Frank Million
the Newark Velodrome, a complete
list of the champion cyclists of Eur
ope, who will compete in the worlds
championship here the latter part of
this month, is given. That a great
array of talent viii be seer in the
big worlds event is now assured.
Five countries of Europe will send
representatives. They are France.
Germany. Italy, Belgium and Sweden.
France will be represented by NJ.
Perchicot, the winner of the sprint
championship of France this year,
Germany will send her middle dis
lance star, H. E. Rudolphe; Morettii
who won the short-distance cham
pionship of Italy, will represent that
country: Van Beber. who is the sprint
title holder Of Be, GUM and the anna
teur champion of Sweden, whose
name is not given in the cablegram,
complete. the list.
With Perchicot and Emil Friol
France will have the strongest repre-
sentation If any of the European
countries. Perchicot is one of the
best of the short distance men of the
continent, although he is not as fast
as Friol. Friol is a superior match
race rider. but in open competition
has nothin on the rider who is
giving Kramer the greatest battle of
his career.
Moretti, the Italian. comes well
recommended. He has been n OF
the stars of Europe for the past
three years, although this is the first
time he has won the championship of
his own country. Moretti is a far bet
ter man than Carlo Messori, the
former champion of Italy. who was
seen here early this season. Moretti
is game and he has got a good head,
qualities that Messori lacked.

AS Mills vas walking toward his
home that day Earl stopped him and
asked If he cared if he walked with
him. Rupe and his father, who was
with him, consented, and after a
little talk at the house it was learned
that another scout was around. Earl
made an appointment for his manager
to visit the Mills home last night
and plans were carried out.
Although Rupe is anxious to be-
come a big league star. still he is
more anxious to become well edu-
Gated. He wished to obtain his High
School diploma and then enter one
of the big colleges.
The Philadelphia Athletics, the St.

were after his services. too, but the
local youngster refused all for the
one reason that he wants to be a
