The big race of interest to the fans
at the Velodrone tonight will be the
Aft Grenda-Emil Friol match race.
These riders are booked to meet in a
French-stylc race best two out of
three heats, and the distance is tosbe
two-thirds of a mile. .
Grcnda is all that stands between
a big match between Kramer and
the FreDchman, and if the latter dis
poses of the Australian, Kramer is
the only rider left worthy of meeting
him. This match has attracted cor
siderable attention, and the fan are
eager to see how Friol will stack up
with Grcnda. After this match il
will be pretty well known how Friol
compares with Kramer. Kramer de-
feated Grenda three weeks ago in a
French style match at the same dis
governing the match tonight. lie de-
feated the Australian champ" by
not over a length, and he had TO ride
clear to the tape to do 1t. Now we
will see what Friol will do with him.
Grenda Game.
Grenda is a gamester and a battler,
and Friol will find he cannot play
with this fellow as he did with Frank
Cavanagh. Grenda's chances are far
better than Cavanagh's, and. while
he may be beaten. the match is sure
to be close and will fish at the tape,
instead of the backstretch. FriQl is
not predicting anything in this match.
He says Grenda is a better man than
Cavanagh, and he hopes to win, but
when asked if he expected to score a
victory a shrgg of the shoulders was
his only reply.
Championship Tonight.
While he is riding match races
Friol will not engage in open com
petition, and will not compete in
the half-mile Championship Tonight,
which is one of the feature races on
the card. Grenda will. however. The

The scheduled six-round bout be-
tween Young Shugrue. of Jersey City
and Harry Tracey, of Philadelphia,
Mt the Eleventh Ward Athletic Club
In Morris Park last night, came to
a. sudden end when. in the third SEES
son. the Quaker youth raised his
hand. claiming he had been fouled.
1t was apparent. however, from a
SPECTATORS viewpoint, that Shlgrue
had been fighting fairly and that a
low blow had not been struck. Tracey
insisted, however, and apparently suf-
fered considerable pain walking TO
his corner. Shugrue ~outweighed his
man at least eight pounds. but the
manner in which he fought did not
in the least indicate that he had hit
his man below the belt.
The trouble of weighing in caused
considerable delay, and it was no-
until 11.s0 o'clock that the lads finally
appeared in the ring.
The entire trouble came about when
Shuerue refused to weigh in properly.
II was evident, however, when the
boys measured up that Tracey was
outciassd in weight. Tracey weighed
IT. close TO 1871 pounds.
After the troubles had ceased and
the spectators quieted the bout was
on. Tracey, seemingly nervous from
the constant talking to he received
from his seconds. walked slowly to
the. centre OF the ring. and both
clinched. Shugrue got over a short
right to the jaw. and Tracey returned
