enmayer's Casino Hall tomorrow aft
ernoon.
The Knights of Columbus five of
Harrison will play the West Point
military team at Parish Hall, Harri-
son, Monday night
Now it's the st. Michael Five's
turn to have losing streak. The
uptowners lost their second straight
game at Harmonic Hall last night
when they went down to defeat at
the hands of the Bayonne Separates
by 80 to 27. The Saints should have
won, however, for they led at the end
of the first period, IA to Z. McEvoy
starred for the homesters and Boyle
for the visitors.
The regulars of the East Orange
High School disposed of the Alumni
squad, "a to 10, at the East Orange

loped the st. Agnes Five, 33 to IL.
The st. Miehaels will meet the
Armory Five at the Orange armory
tonight.

favored the home team, 16 to 8.
AT Dominican Hall last night the
Dominican II. N. S. quintet was de-
feated by the Trinity Five, of New
York, by score of 27 to 20. The
Dominlcans were without the service
of Harry Heninger. The game was
fast as well as rough at times, and
at the end of the first half the score
was 15 to IA in the Trinity's favor.
In the second period both teams fol-
lowed each other very Nlosely. Ken
nedy and Sharkey featured for the
Visitors, and Corrigan and Hahn for
the locals.
There was preliminary game be-
tween the Dominican Juniors and
the Newark Turner Juniors, which
was won by the Dominicans, 10 to 12.

Mrs. M. H. Hickey, the popular
manager of the Hickey Machine Com

turned from a trip to the Nordyke &
Marmon factory, at Indianapolis,
where she went to inspect the latest
product of this well-known manufac-
turer, which her firm represents.
Mrs Hickey was very favorably
impressed with her visit, and reports

While at the factory Mrs. Hickey

of the later champion and first two
minute horse Star Pointer Q:59A).s
Occasionally we see a trainer who
has an aversion for particular fam
lily of horses, yet has so much sue
cess with them that he is compelled
to admit that his prejudices are not
backed up by results. ] know of no
better example of this than the case
of that shrewd New England trainer,
Walter Cox. For years Cox has had
an antipathy for the Blngen family.
In 1909, when Bob Douglass, q
grandson of Bingen, was winning all
of his starts during the early part
of the season, and the now stallion
champion, The Harvester, was doing
likewise, great interest was taken in
the first meeting of the pair, sched-
uled for the Charter Oak stake
at Hartford. Cox was a strong
adherent of The Harvester.
An Eastern scribe and close
friend of Cox, while acknowl-
edging the greatness OF the Geers A.
year-old, upheld the Bingen family
end in some warm arguments, and
had to stand for a lot of good
natured roasting from Cox when The
Harvester trimmed the gray in the
Hartford. classic Bob Douglass,
however. later raced on so well that
all had to admit him splendid race
horse.
In 1911, in spite of his prejudice,
Cox purchased the bay mare Bel
vasia, a granddaughter of Bingen.
her to Tom Murphy for more than
double her purchase price, and she
carried him the fastest any stake
trotter had carried him up to that
time, being the only horse to beat
the famous plow horse r. 7. c. a
heat that season. Belvasia was a
high-class race mare, lameness un-
fortunately preventing her from being
the factor on the grand circuit which
she would otherwise have been.
In 1912 Cox had for his dependence
in the rich stakes the fast game, but
very cratic mare Esther w. (2:06A),
a mare who would have won a ma
jority of the rich grand circuit stakes
had not the sensational winner Baden
(2:05A) been in the way. Week after

that, grandson of Bingen gather in
the coin, and he admitted that on
the two occasions he was able to beat
the stallion with Esther w. that it
was racing luck that won for him.
He conceded Baden to be by far the
best racing tool, even though he was
a memeber of the Bingen family.
All fall Cox has been casting about
for stake trotter to take dawn the
Big Ring next season, and recently
he purchased Barring (2:1sA), a
young stallion which has raced well
on the half-mile tracks. Investiga-
ton of the breeding of this horse
shows him to be, like Baden, an Allen
Farm product, also by Bingara, a
son of Bingen, Uhlan, Belvasia, Bob
Douglass and Baden have proved
too much for the deep-seated Cox
prejudice against this particular
family.

Some Trainers Have Great
Luck with Horses Families

DETROIT, Mich, DeS. 3.-The sue
cess on the harness turf of many Of
the different families of horses is, in
many cases, apparently assisted in a
great measure by some one particular
trainer who has succeeded with the
particular family where other train
ers, with apparently equally as much
ability, have not met with the same
success. John Dickerson and the Bel
lini family furnish a good example.
Bellini is one of the leading sires Of
the world in the number of 2:10 per-
formers, and Dickerson is the man
who has marked all of them in the
charmed circle. AS head trainer at
the farm where Bellini was owned he
naturally had more opportunity than
others to do things with the family
but it is noticeable that, with the ex-
ception Of Soprano (2;OS$), none of
the line has been conspicuous at the
races after passing from the stable of
Dickerson.
The family Of Todd and the Indian
apolis trainer, Lon Mcdonald, is an
