Frank Gargan has by no means signed

ball team for next fall. as was announced
yesterday. When Gargan Was Inter-
viewed relative to this statement yester-
day he stated that he was unable to come
TO terms with Walsh. graduate manager

Now. whether Gargan will coach at the
hilltop next fall will he definitely decided

salary. question again. Gargan looks at
the matter i'm business manner lie
knows that he WAS responsible for the
success of the Blue and Gray eleven last
fall, and he has perfect right To do
mand larger SALARY. Vincent Daley
was the head coach of the team. and re-
ceived a much larger salary than that
Gargan received. DALEY had nothing at
all to do with the coaching Of the team
and left things wholly 10 Gargan. Now
the latter demands an increase in his SAL
airy and will not sign up today unless
Walsh meets his demands.
That Gargan's services are in demand
is a certainty. He has two offers Al tbS

other from Rutgers. He is Very anXiouss

|DE 0RO'S BIG LEAD.
Now Far in Front in Play for
the Pocket Billiard Title.
MAKES SPECTACULAR SHOT
Jumps Pyramid, Pockets Ball,
Breaks Bunch and Clears
the Table.

NEW YORK. February 21.-Alfredo De
Orc fairly distanced Thomas Hueston in
the second block Of their match for the
worlds pocket billiard championship last
night in John Doyle's 42d street academy.
At juggling the ivory globes and making
them perform all sorts of uncanny tricks
De Orc fairly surpassed himself He
counted a total of 200 balls for the night
to 131 for his challenger
The second block was more desperately
fought than the first and II consumed
twenty-five frames. De Orc was the vic
were IS and -. Hueston made nine
scratches and his best run was 90 balls.
The respective totals for the two nights
OF play is 400 balls for De Orc to 900 for
Hueston.
For spectacular effects the champion
produced number of shots which set the
crowd applaudng. The best and most
sensational came at the beginning of the
twenty-frst frame. Hueston had at
tempted a safe break. The cue ball rolled
in front of the pyramid. while the free
ball lay on the end rail near a corner
pocket. Studying the situation for mo-
| ment De Orc fairly lifted the spectators
from their seats by playing a jump shot
clear over the pyramid. The cue ball cut
the object ball into the pocket and on the
rebound from the cushion spread the
bunch so prettily that the champion
quickly cleared the table.
This shot was directly inspired by a
piece OF daring on the part OF Hueston in
the inning Immediately before when with
the free balls lying near a pocket he took
a desperate chance and by banging into
the bunch managed to drive the ball into
| a pocket
AS in the first night of the contest. De
Orc began with practically clean sweep
Of the first three frames. He put the
cue to the ball rapidly, seemingly so sure
of himself that he called the next ball
before the first was in the pocket Ii
was in the second, third and fourth
frames that he put together a run OF
thrty-five balls. which stood as his best
effort of the session. Despite all that
Hueston could do, and he played some
| battling safety at times. De Orc held to
the advantage of the break during the
opening frames. SO that he had tailed

to forty-four for his challenger.
Toward the close both of the men eX-
perienced difficulties. which in the twen-
ty-second frame led to a comedy Of err
rors. Each had ten turns at the table
in this frame, and they divided the balls
evenly. II
De Orc had the better of the final
frames. however. Nothing short of a
miracle can stop him from defeating
Hueston by a wide margin in the closing

RACING MAY START
IN NEW YORK STATE
Several Metropolitan Tracks
to Open With Jockey Clubs
Consent This Season.

NEW YORK. February 21-From the
wording of statement issued after meet
ings yesterday of the stewards of the
Jockey Club and officials OF several rae
ing associations. the impression prevails
among racing men that the powers that
govern horse racing in this vicinity have
about decided to open some of the metro
politan tracks during the coming season.
The way is held to have been paved for
such action by a recent court decision
holding oral betting not unlawful, thereby
exempting directors of racing associa-
lions from liability or betting i'm this
form.
Because all the racing associations were
not represented, officials OF the Empire
City. Brighton Beach and Jamaica race
tracks being absent, no definite conclu-
sion was announced as to whether rae
ing would be resumed That such is the
intention, however, could be inferred
from the statement. made after the meet
ing. that owing to the great reduction
in the number of horses racing and the
definite programs announced by the Nir-
ginia and Maryland associations. which
have already secured approval from the
Jockey Club those spring meetings VIII
not be conficted with -
The view taken by those interested was
that at the conclusion of racing in Nir-
Of the New York racing associations ana
clubs would reopen their race courses and
hold meetings under licenses from the
state racing commission. with the ap-
prevail of the Jockey Club.
In a statement issued by the stewards.
after discussing the matter, they declared
that the Jockey Club is only super
visory body and does not control the bust
ness policy of any Of the racing assocfa-
tions. 1t is not I'm its province TO say
whether there shall be racing, II was
pointed out. but should any of the asso-
Citations decide to open their courses the
Jockey Club controls the manner in which
such racing shall be conducted.
