PRINCETON ELEVEN
REPORTS FOR WORK

PRINCETON, Sept. 9.-The Prince
ton varsity football candidates re-
ported to Captain Pendleton and Head
Coach Logan Cunningham today on
University Field for the first practise
of the year. A squad of about twenty
men was on hand for morning and
afternoon practise. Few of the regu-
lars have arrived yet.
The Tigers are getting out in their
togs early this seasoA on account of
the new rules, which, according to
football experts, will not favor the
Orange and Black as much as they
will the other members of the big
three.
Practise will be held twice daily on
University Field until the university
team starts a week from Thursday.
While the Tigers have lost the
famous Sam White and seven other
veterans, the intercollegiate cham
pions have a fine squad of second
string men and last years freshmen
to draw upon for a good eleven this
fall. Hart. Wilson, Duff, Chrystie
and Vaughan are the men whom the
Jungleites are going to miss this fall.
At first sight there appears to be a
dearth of line men. while there are
plenty of good back field players
available.

Swacina earlier in the game perpe-
trating h fashiest play seen on the
local lot this year when, with Elston
on third, Shean shot a bounder toward
right. Swacina was playing in on
the grass and the ball was hit hard,
but somehow Harry moved sideways
with great speed and brought down
the pill with one hand, whirled and
threw accurately to the plate, barely
in time to nip Elston trying to count
from the red light bag. Later Col

The Grays, with Pill Donovan at
their helm, are a livelier band than
hitherto, and Donovan may be in the
race next season if he gets the proper
reinforcements from Detroit. 1t is
rumored that Bill Louden anw Ownie
Bush are slated for GRANVILLE next
season. Bill Louden, in a way, was
unfortunate in getting into the Amer
lean League. instead of the National.
Bill hits we'll enough when he doesn't
have to face spitball pitchers, which
is often the case in the American
League, as all of the clubs seem to
save their moist ball artists to stop
Cobb and Crawford and Bill suffers.
There are fewer damp fingers in the
National League.
Bill Collins, who gave one of his
stellar exhibitions of fielding in right
garden, manufactured Newark's lone
tally in the first game. Bill shot a
sharp one to short and Shean fumbled.
A passed ball and a wild pitch pit
him on third and a single by w.

curial speedboy from Cewar Rapids.
Bill helped to save the game a few
innings later, when he took a sure
two-base line drive from Shean and
whipped to Swacina for a double kill

Bill had a chance to get to the flying
Sphere.
Scoring Starts Early In Second.
Scoring began early in the second
bdilt. Mus w IOolty, tOllinSi Der
nard and w. Zimmerman, followed
by Gagnier's sacrifice fly, gave the
Tigers three runs in the first inning,
Collins's effort being a sharp drive to
right for three bags.
Bauman's triple, a pass to Mitchell
and hits by Gillespie and Bailey
earned two points for Providence in
the second frame, one of which New
ark regained in its half of the round.
Tooley beat out a bunt. Collins
walked and Bernard also hunted
safely. Billy Zimmerman c1~ee
through with a sacrifice fly, scorin
Tooley. Gagnier's error and Bau-
mans double produced the third
Providence run in third. Newark was
s~coreless then, until the ninth, when
Providence, by gaining a run in the
dash of the last two sessions, had
tied it up. Hits by Bauman and
Atz spelt a run in the eighth, while
McDermott's pinch single tied 1t In

WORLDS RECORDS MADE AT
FATAL MOTORCYCLE MEET
BY SEYMOUR and HASHA
Seymour Rides 2 Miles in liz 2-5 and in
Dead Heat at 3 Miles Men Do Dis
lance at 1:56, Clipping 3 Seconds Off
the Former Record.

According to the records compiled
by the Bicycling World and Motor
cycle Review, the late Eddie Hasha
and Ray Seymour smashed former
worlds marks in the Newark Motor
Stadium yesterday afternoon. In the
final heat of the class A professional,
which resulted in a tie between him
and Ray Seymour, the timers caught
the miles in 1 minute and Sc seconds,
which, is three seconds better than
the mark established by Hasha at Los
Angeles April 5 last.
In the first heat of the same event
at two miles, Hasha scored a victory
In / minute and IS seconds, which
betters the worlds former time by 20
of a second. Ray Seymour made two
miles in 1 minute and IL 20 SECONDS
In the second heat, which is just a
second faster than the old mark. Thus
worlds marks in every heat of the
class A professionals were smashed.
1t was the opinion of the timers n a
the worlds record at six miles would
have been shattered in the free-for-ail
had not the fatal mishap taken place
The chief event of the day was the
class A race of three heats. Hasha,
Seymour, Peck and Albright was the
order of the start in the first heat.
Just one lap had been made when
Hasha and Seymour set such a SUN
pace that the other pair or contest
ants were forced to look on. M
famous little Texan led all the way,
and was never headed. They kept the
same positions-Hasha first, with
on his rear wheel, for three
la DIS, when Seymour by a few extra
shoves had gained his rivals front
wheel. They crossed the tape with
the Texan leading by no more than
q wheel. Hasha was given a tremen-
dous ovation. Seymour's riding in the
second heat was a repetition OF
Hasha's wonderful work in the first.
He grabbed the lead and held 1t to
the end, winning by the same margin
as his rival in the previous race.
The third and final heat was the
greatest of all. Hasha was the hrst
to start. He, with Seymour. were on
scratch Peck and Albright were I'D
Grated one-uuarter of a lap, while
Johnny and Frank King were given
half a lap Seymour jumped to the
front. but as they were about TO start
Hasha passed his opponent n Sc
cured the lead. Around and around
they whizzed at record speed. and be-
fore three laps were up the other con-
testants were hopelessly in the rear
Seymour on the sixth lap tried TO
pass Hasha, but failed in his effort.
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1912-09-09

The last half-mile became one of the
most gruelling events of the season.
Hasha was flying as fast as his ma
chine could carry him and Seymour
was gamely making his last efforts
to keep up the pace. Half a lap to
go, Hasha led by three-quarters of a
length. A quarter Of a lap to go saw
Seymour half a wheel to the bad, and
at the tape he had, according to the
judges, come up on even terms. 1t
appeared to some Of the spectators
who were at the tape that Hasha had
won by inches. Eddie on dismounting
his machine and hearing of the deci-
sion kicked like a little steer, and with
him was the crowd. Seymour had
been satisfied, for he was all smiles.
Both rode n great race and there was
considerable elbowing on the part of
both during the dead heat.
Seymour defeated Johnny Albright
in straight heats of a match race.
Seymour did not have such an easy
time. however, and although he won
the first heat by a length he was
given a hard tussle in the second,
and only won by half a length. AL
bright kept on even terms with his
opponent In both heats until the bell
lap. when Seymour's better Judgment
earned him the verdict.
The first heat for the class Bs at
two miles went to Frank King. AL
bert Carlson was second. The lat
ter on the bell lap fell on the South
Orange avenue side. He apparently
lost control of his machine, and he
went to the top of the saucer. He
somersaulted once and slid easily to
the base on his back. Had he been
going at full speed the mishap might
have resulted probably fatally.
Herby Ayrauffe in working out be-
fore h start of the second heat for
the b men, fell at the very same
spot as Carlson. His machine zig
Jagged to the base and he fell off the
wheei,- sliding fully fifty yards ahead
of him. He did not continue. The
last two laps resulted into a beautiful
race between F. Brown, of this city,
and Johnny King, also of Newark.
On the last turn Brown by a sensa-
tional jump managed to win by three
yards. Johnny King came back in
the final heat at five miles, however,
and won, but only after a great
sprint. Frank King was second,
while Larry Flickinstein took third
honors.
Ray Peck defeated Herbert Ay-
rauffe in the elimination sweepstakes
event. Peck caught his mar just as
they had finished two miles.
The New Jersey Club race went to
Johnny Constant, with Brown sec
ond and Segelbach third.

President Charles H.. Ebbetts, OF

the combat. After the first battle Joe
McGinnity said that it was the hard

pitched a victory over the Athletics
in the worlds series of 1905. The
score was so close and the pace such
a killing one that both teams were on

Of this country. He knocked out Phil
Cross In two rounds, Jimmy Devine,
of Philadelphia, in two rounds, and
also knocked out Abe Attell several

use all his cleverness to win. Two
