Mr.. Kohler said that he did not think
the outlook for racing in America this

DE ORC WINS EASILY.
Pocket Billiard Champion Best in
First NIGHTS Play With DAILY.

NEW YORK, March 5.-Alfred De Orc,
the world pocket billiard champion, won
the first block of his six nights handi-
cap match with John DAILY at Doyle 8
Billiard Academy last night by score
Of 1O5 to r. The conditions of the match
are that in the weeks play De Orc shall
make 600 to Days 500. This handicap is
divided, so that for Ave nights De Orc, in
order to win. must make 100 to Days 81,
and onsthe sixth nights play 100 to 80.
De Orc won last nights play in twelve
frames, just when Daily was settling
down to his game. Daily played carelessly.
as If he we're in a practice game. and
neglected many opportunities to overtake
the champion. De Orc did some excellent
playing in the first part of the game and
took a good lead. while Daily didn't settle
down until his opponent had almost
reached the century mark. De Oro's best
run was 33. Daily made the prettiest
play Of the game, a four-ball combination
in the ninth frame. when. on long table
shot, he drove his cue ball into the bunch
hard and forced ball from the pyramid
into the corner pocket.
Days open-table play proved his I'M
doing. He never hesitated to separate
the halls. but more than once missed
straight shots when it looked as il he
would clear the table. De Orc played his
carefully. His position play was excel
lent. and several times he played safeties
which left DAILY puzzled De Orc at
tempted difficult five-ball combination
In the tenth frame, but missed by a
slight margin. DAILY struck a bit Of hard
luck In the tenth inning, when he drove
his cue ball too hard, sending ringer
into the pocket with such force that It
bounced out again.
DAILY did not play his best game BY any
means, and 1t Is doubtful II De Orc will
find him playing with such carelessness
again during the match.

Yesterday afternoon saw the Inaugural
ton of base ball for the season Of 1912

game was ushered in by twelve Hilltop
battery candidates working for about
half an hour in the cage in Ryan gym

work of the different pitchers. allowing
them only the lightest kind Of work, as
yesterday was the first day that the Blue
and Gray moundmen were out for prac-

on yesterdays squad. with several more

plan is being seriously considered which
II effected will band the local organiza-

which will have sole charge of athletics
in the District
The idea as it is now being evolved is
to have local athletics governed entirely
by local people. The argument which is
being presented is that local people
should have sole voice as to how their
athletic affairs should be conducted, and
with this end in view it Is the intention
to band the District organizations into

The new organization, If formed, will
not be antagonistic toward the regular

but will work in conjunction with it just
as do other kindred associations.
