Barringer Highs EIeUen Plays
We'll After Settling Down

brought the ball to Barringer's seven
yard line, and a straight line plunge
carried it over the line.
In the last period, using nothing but
line plunges, Barringer carried the
ball straight down to Railways twen-
ty-yard line, where a criss-cross end
run by Andy Dempsey scored the
second touchdown.
The locals were by far the heavier
team, and the visitors played an ex-
cellent game throughout. Their for
ward passes, worked time and again
with success, left nothing to be de-
sired. Gilbertson starred for the
locals in the first part of the game,
and Andy Dempsey's kicking and
plunging throughout were excellent.
The biue-and-white line held well
but showed lack Of practise and need
of steadying down. In the absence
OF Jose. Hardy Bush ran the team
cleverly from quarter and carried the
ball himself several times with tell
ing plunges.

to VelOdrOrne for six DSys'

The Frenchman has shown great
speed and very good Judgment in his
races, and he is the strongest oppo-
nent that can be found to meet, kra-
mer. Perchicot has performed in a
more impressive than the
great Emil Friol. and it will be re-
membered that the latter gave Kra-
mer a very strong argument in three
French matches. Perchicot is riding
in better form now than at any time
since he came to this country. He
is in far better shape than he was
a week ago. when he defeated Clarke
in two straight heats.
Clarke-Grenda Match.
The Clarke-Grenda match is to be
paced, and both riders prefer this
kind of a race. 1t will be fast, which
will give both riders a chance to
perform at their best. 1t is a toss as
to who will be the winner. Frank
Kramer is the only rider who has
ventured to pick a gvinnerfi and he
likes Clarke's chances. Little Jackie
is going good, and he may prove
to be q regular giant killer.
The relative size of Clarke and
Grenda, the former being the small
est rider in the game and the latter
the largest, proves that size amounts
to naught in athletics. They are
both top-notchers. and they are
about equal in every department of
the game.
The other vents on the bill to-
morrow are a two-mile handicap and
a five-mile open for the pros" and
a three-mile handicap, one-mile open
and a novice for the amateurs. All
of the big fellows will start in the
five-mile open. but in the handicap
the foul riders in the match will no,
be among the starters.

league drafts from minor leagues. an
nounced by the National Baseball
Commission, is as follows:
The st. Louis American League
