The Wanderer seemed to have won

satisfied with the official verdict.
Murphy sent Queen Worthy out in
front in the first heat and was not in
danger until half way down the
stretch, when Macy came alongside
with The Wanderer. Like a team
they came toward the wire, Murphy

Emil Friol showed himself a master
at the match-racing game last night,
and he delighted a large crowd with
his splendid performance in his
match tilt with Floyd Krebs. The
management gave him Krebs as an
opponent because they thought it I'M
fair to give him a harder rides right
off the bat, but by the way he rode
there need be no fear of him at all.
If he rides much better when he
has become acclimated he will make
u own champion extend himself in
a way that he was not forced TO do
for years. Krebs. who has beaten
Jackie Clark at the match game,
looked like a novice compared with
his foreign rival. Friol peat him
fron the rear In the first heat and
from the front in the last heat. AT
the standing-sti game which Floyd
is touted to be so good at. he beat
him handily, standing still on the
track and making Krebs take the
pace and once forcing Floyd to fall
to the track.
1t is pretty freely predicted that
Frank Cavanagh will not look much
better than Floyd against the French
rider. He may not cross the tape
sitting up az he did in both heats
with Floyd, but Cavanagh will meet
the toughest proposition In his short
when he goes up against the
next Sunday. Floyd was
forced to spills his whole bagful of
tricks and none of them we're effec-
tive against the classy-looking
Frenchman-
Friol has about the same position
on his wheel that used to make
Major Taylor such a. conspicuous fig
ure in the bike racing game. He is
class, spelt with a capital C. He
shows 1t in his carriage, his bicycle
jersey, trunks and everything about
him. There is nothing slovenly about
him. n when he gets on his wheel,
he is all business.
Champion Kramer was an interest
ed spectator at the match races. I'm
no idea of how good he
really is could be gathered because
he was not forced to extend himself
in either of the heats.
Kramer Fine.
The title-holder was the sta of
the money-chasers. He captured the
quarter-mile championship in appar-
entity easily style. Tricky" Comes,
Floyd Krebs and Frank Cavanagh

RECORD TRIALS ATTHE
MOTORDROME THIS WEEK

Manager Paul Derkum has arranged
a very strong program for the Sta
dunn Motordrome Saturday and Sun
day afternoons of this week. Eddie
Hasha will be here to compete in all
events and also ride the second and
final heat of the match race against
Ray Peck on Sunday afternoon.
Hasha on Saturday afternoon will
attempt to BREAK the present record
of the track and equal. if he can. his
record of SO 4-5 seconds for the mile.
Peck, after his great ride of last
Saturday, figures that he will be able
to zeal Hasha. Peck knocked two
fifths of a second off the best time
that had been made at the track. AMI
believes that this time will be fast
enough to beat Hasha. In this he
may be right, and if he ever gets the
position in front it surely means that
Hasha will come in second. Hasha,
however, is the real daredevil, and
will come around if he has to go to
the top of the track to do so.
1t may not be generally known but
motorcycle ridersswill not pass a man
from the inside at any time of the
race. This is n of the rigid rules
of the game, and is most consistently
enforced. Should a rider pass on the
inside he would be suspended for an
indefinite period. With this regula-
tion enforced a man always looks for
a man to come around on his right
and does not have to watch the other
side OF him.
In the race between Hasha- and
Peck, should the latter get into the
lead and be riding about the centre
OF the track, Hasha would have some
real trouble in getting by. for he
would have TO. ride very high and in
doing this he would lose a little time.

How the Game Was Lost.
Conroy's single, his steal, single by
Lelivelt and an error by Billy Zim-
norman. netted the Hustlers their
first run. A single by Batch and a
double by Johnson gave them an
other in the second, and a double by
Batch and a one-bagger by Johnson
meant just another in the fourth.
The next scoring was in the sixth,
when Lelivelt's single, Spencer's sac
rifee. Lelivelt's steal of third and a
single by Batch. followed by john
sons circuit drive, netted three
more tallies. Loose playing by the
Bengals yielded the champions their
final point In the seventh.

[From a stafr Correspondent.

lfrom a ctdH correspondent
ROCHESTER,, N. Y, July 25.-All
was serene this morning along the
Genesee because the Champions had
regained their throne. usurped by the
Baltimore bunch for a day, but Jack
Dunn, the Oriole leader, with the
staccato voice, need have no fear of
the Tigers failing to perform their
duty today. John Camel hasn't a
thing in sight. so far as pitching ma
terial was concerned, that could
worry the Tigers.
Tom Hughes alone seems to have it
on the Bengals this season, and the
Tigers are not the only team that
Hughes has baffied most persistently
and annoyingly.
Camel, 1t is expected. will call on
Jerry Akers. a Montreal cast-off,
whom the Tigers have bumped and
trounced into submission twice.
There was disappointment yester-
day because George Bell could not
bride the Broncos, but George has
been complaining of a slight soreness
In his right arm, which accounted
partly for his ineffectiveness.
Hughes, however, twirled a game yes
terday equaled only by the gilt-edged
performance of the Iron Man" in the
second game on Tuesday.
1t is too bad that Hughes did not
hook up with the Iron Man in that
second encounter, for the Tigers
firmly believe that Joe would have
lowered Toms colors. 1t looks now
as though Joe will have to turn the
trick anyhow. for these two teams
have something like seven games re-
manning, and Joe will pitch at least
three of them.
McGinnity May Try Again.
1t was whispered this morning that
Joe had serious thoughts of tackling
and tanning the Ganzelites again to-
day.
Hughes, besides whiting five men
yesterday, showed fine form when he
retired ten men in a row from The
second to the fifth without allowing
one of them to hit the ball out of the
infield, which was no mean stunt.
While the Tigers had hopes of getting
four out of five here, they will be
