SAN DIEGO, Cal, March 12.-Miss
Eleanor Sears. the millionaire bach

Coronado track yesterday. Lady Reg
inald Herbert, riding Hawkeye. was a
close second. A big crowd witnessed
the race.
Lady Herbert got away a length IN
the lead with the inside track. Miss
Sears's clever horsemanship won ner
the race, for as they rounded the tui 4
and came into the stretch, n e
her horse into the lead and gradually

SCHLAFLY is
AFTER KELLY
Larry Makes Offer That Will
Probably Be Accepted by
Tiger Management.

A formal offer for the release of Out
fielder Jack Kelly was made yesterday
to the Newark club by Manager Larry
Schlafy, of the Jersey City club.
Though both managers, Schlafy and
McGinnity, are reticent about the deal,
a person on the Jersey City end of the
deal admitted that the offer had been
made and that McGinnity was being
persuaded strongly to sell Kelly to our
Skeeter brethren.
Kelly denied that he had been in
consultation with anyone from Jersey
City and refused to say whether or
not he would like to play with the
Pests; but 1t is a safe bet that he
would be satisfied to perform In the
Shelters garden IT, the transfer can be
effected.
1t was learned from another source
that President J. ]. Lillis, of the Jer-
sey City club, was In Newark recently
and stopped at Kelly's place, in Broad
street. There Is much secrecy about
the transaction Just now, but it is be-
lieved In the end Kelly will wind up
with Jersey City.
Larry Schlaf1y, with his family in
tow, locked at the Continental yester-
day, and after visiting local friends,
including Joe McGinnity, he went over
to Jersey City to get things In shape
for the getaway tomorrow. The Pests
leave in the morning for Bermuda.
Schlafiy would like the deal to go
through in time to take Kelly along,
but the Iron Man" must consult with
Vice-President Solomon before dispos-
ing of Kelly.

TO

Her Colleges Will Adopt Ameri-
can Athletic SYSTEM Work
Has Now Started.

NEW YORK, March 12.-Germany
has decided to embrace the American
athletic system, and leading German
universities are planning to introduce
college sports on American lines, ac-
cording to advices received here.
German university men hitherto
have confined sports" practically to
sabre fighting and beer-drinking con-
tests. Serious comprehensive efforts
will now be made to popularize field,
track and aquatic athletics by means
of intercollegiate competitions.
Representatives of fourteen univer-
sites. ten technical colleges, two vet
Urinary schools, the Royal Agricultural
College and two mining academies at
tended a recent meeting in Berlin and
agreed to organize at regular intervals
intercollegiate competitions to be called
German University Olympias.' The
first meeting will be held In Leipsic in

Both Fullbacks and Goal
keeper Considered the
Cleverest Men in Coun-
try at Their Position.

When the st. Leo team arrives here
for a contest with the West Hudsons
next Sunday the work of the great
backf1eld trio, NJ. Boucher, Bill Alb
stein and Duke Sheahan, should
~monopolize the attention and interest,"
of many of the fans.
Two of these men. Abstein and
Boucher, are clever baseball players.
the former having played with Pitts
burgh and Jersey City, and the latter
is a catcher for the Dubuque team.
Sheahan is the greatest goal-keeper
in the country, and the foreign teams
that visited here raved about his clever
work. 1t is this trio that has done
most to make the st. Leos the cham
pions Of st. Louis and which viii III
the opinion of many make the Saints
the champions of the country before
their trip is ended.

The exhibition games arranged by the
Newark Club should prove a real test
for the Tigers this spring. Both Joe
McGinnity and George Solomon believe
that fifteen exhibition games will be
amply sufficient to tune the Bengals
up for the International league cam
paign. OF these fifteen games six are
at home and nine abroad. The Bengals
have three Sunday dates at home with
big league teams-the Philadelphia
Athletics on the grand opening Sunday.
March 81; the Philadelphia Nationals.
Sunday. April I. and the Brooklyn Ma
tionals on Sunday. April IA.
The final exhibition game before the
league season win take place on Mon
day. April Is, with the Trenton Club,
at the local park.
Last ear the Bengals had about
twelve exhibition games, u because
of the cold and wet weather only half
of that number were decided.

ABE ATTELL TRIED TO
HAVE MURPHY
LIE DOWN

SAN FRANCISCO, March 1.-THE
Call yesterday printed an account of
an alleged proposal for a fake
knockout, said to have been made by
Abe Attell to Harlem Tommy Muir
ply last Saturday before their twenty
round fight.
Attell denies the accusation and says
he made no proposition to Murphy or
his manager.
According to James Buckley, Muir
phys manager, as he is quoted in the
Call, the first suggestion as to fixing"
the fight was made by Attell February
&c. He was not told positively that no
agreement would be made, it is alleged.
Another meeting was arranged,
said the newspaper account, land this
time Murphy accompanied his mana
ger. Murphy was asked If he would
agree to fall to the mat after receiving
a certain blow and pretend to be I'M
able to rise. He said he refused.
Last Wednesday or Thursday night,
in response to a telephone message,
Buckley met Attell and again listened
to the fighters proposal.
"Attell approached Buckley again
just before the men went into the ring.
Buckley was called from Murphy's
dressing-room by Attell and asked if
the Harlem boy was ready to play the
part Attell wished to assign to him.
Buckley says that even then he did not
give a definite answer and hat at no
time had Attell received a definite
reply"
Murphy, with Buckley, left early yes
ferdav for the Fast to nrepare for his
fight with Paekey Mcfarland at Ken
osha, Wis.
Promoter James Coffroth announced
yesterday he had secured Eddie Nc
Goorty to meet the winner of the

ARTHUR ROSS
APPOINTED
REFEREE
Triple Referee System Will Not
Be Used-Kramer's Big
Refusal.

Arthur ]. Ross. of Newark, who has
been one of the judges at the Velo-
drome for a number of years, has been
appointed to succeed Walter BardgetI
In the capacity of referee at h Velo-
drome. Ross is very well known here
and at one time was one OF the stars
of the motor-paeed game.
Under the management Of POP"
Elkes, Ross rode in Europe in 1900 and
was quite successful on the foreign
tracks. He knows the anne thorough
iy and should make a good referee.
Team work is under the ban again
this year, and it will be up to Ross 70
stop the practise if the riders attempt
to get away with any rough stuff
Bardgett had his hands full last year
and was in hot water most of the time.
and he will hand the job over to Ross
with pleasure.
The new referee was present at every
meet at the Velodrome last season, and
he knows exactly what he is going up
against. While there was more or
less teaming last year, Bardgett
stopped all the big trains" and there
was less teaming than in~-apy-seasorl
since the practise was first started.
Late in the season last year the Ma
tional Cycling Association tried an
experiment with three instead of the
usual one referee. but this year they
will go back to the old system of one
referee.
The fine weather yesterday brought
out the riders, and the yelodrome had
a mid-season appearance. Grassy"
Ryan, Ernest Jokus and Norman An
derson Joined the squad that is train
ing yesterday, and all of them showed
up well for the first day out Ander-
son has been training since the Iniddle
of February on a home trainer and is
in very good shape.
Big Frank Cavanagh is going finely
and is expected to make a great show
ing in the professional class. The
husky ex-amateur star is down TO 1872
pounds at the present time, and is only
seven pounds overweight. With SlmosI
a month before the opening of the sea-
son Frank should be in grand shape
for the Stanley handicap.
AS CaNanagh mas never rode IN q
professional sprint race, he will prob
ably receive a fairly liberal allowance
in the big Stanley handicap, and, il
he is given a good mark. he will have
a fine chance to cop the long end of
the purse. The Celt was a very good
performer in handicap races last sea-
son. and was the only amateur Who
broke a handicap record. This lad will
hear watching.
Frank Kramer received yesterday
the biggest offer ever made a rider for
a single race. The American cham
pion received a cable from the pro-
moters of the Berlin six-day racs, that
is scheduled to start March %, offering
him $500 to ride the race. Kramer
refused the offer. With a fine chance
TO win the grand prize of Newark &C
the velodrome April IA and other rich
purses. including the Stanley handi-
cap, which will feature the opening
meet April Z, the American title-holder
did not fall for the big offer to lids
abroad. And, besides, he did not ike
the idea Of starting the sprint-raee
season just after emerging from a six
day ace.
