The athletic associations of the
Military Academy at West Point and

good authority that the representa-
tives of the Army eleven have de-
clared fatty that the game must be
played in New York or at West Point
or not at all.
~-SThc midshipmen are opposed to the
longer journey to this city, and want
to go back to Franklin Field. Phila-
delphia, where the contest has been
held for several years.
Last spring representatives from
both academies visited the Polo
grounds and were well pleased with
the field and seating capacity but
the transportation problem doomed UT
for the midshipmen, and it looked for
a time as if the difficulty could not
be overcome. 1t was pointed out
however. that the journey from An
napolis could be made almost as cas-
lily as the one from west Point tc

NJ NAMARA IS SURE
ONE BIG CANISTER
Australian Is Displaying WOn-
derfuI Nerve Now and He
Did lover Home"
CLARK AND GOULLET AGAIN

Reggie Mcnamara, the Australian
cyclist, who was severely injured two
days after his arrival here from the
Antipodes. is training again and ex-
poets to get into the game at the
! Velodrome within two weeks. Nc
Namara left the hospital Sunday
morning and was a spectator at the
! races at the Velodrome in the after
| noon.
Mcnamara is certainly a gamester,
and Morey Gordon. who trains ALI
Goullet, rates him as the nerviest lad
that ever sat on a bicycle Gordon
trained Mcnamara and Jackie Clark
in the Melbourne six-day race run
| in February, 1912, and yesterday he
related an instance that shows the
wonderful nerve of the foreigner.
On the second day of the race Nc
Namara was in great pain and upon
being examined by physician it was
found that the cyclist was suffering
from an abscess in his groin, which
was OF such a nature 1t made an i'm
mediate operation necessary. The
doctor said he must be taken to a
hospital but Mcnamara objected in
no uncertain terms and declared that
he would finish the race at all haz-
ards. So the operation was performed
in the training quarters.
A cross split, requiring twelve
inches, was made in Mcnamara
side, and the rider stood the opera
ton without the aid of an anasthetic.
AT the conclusion of the operation
Clark on the track. The other riders
knew Reggie" was in trouble and as
soon as he came on the track Jam
was started by Paddy Hehir,, who
was ALT Goullet's mate in the race.
A spill occurred in the jam and Nc
Namara and Hehir went down with
big ALI Grenda falling on top of Nc
Namara. 1t was thought that Nc
Namara was done for, but he was
the first man up and upon mounting
his extra wheel he started another
jam and was one of the most agrees
sive riders during the remainder of
the contest. Gordon is a great ad-
mirer of his fellow Australian and
predicts that he will be a prominent
figure in the races here.
The Clark Goullet match behind
tandems, which proved to be a fizzle
Sunday, on account of a puncture to
Clark's wheel, will be rerun at the
Velodrome tomorrow night The race
will be run under the same conditions
that prevailed Sunday with the same
tandem teams doing the pacing.
A half-mile professional champion
ship will be the feature of the mid
week card, with five-mile open and
a two-mile invitation the other pro-
fessional races on the program. The
events will be a half-mile
handicap, one-mile invitation and a

John j. McDermott, of Atlantic
City, the American open champion,
threw bomb into the British gallery
in the form of a 70 for his early

too much, for he needed so in the
afternoon, making a total of 155 and
bringing him into a tie with Josh
Taylor for eighth and ninth places.
An so in a British open champion

thing of considerable difficulty to

GOA FERS INDIGNANT
OVER "PR0" CHARGES

SILT LAKE CITY, Utah, June "a.
N. .mbers of the Mid-Western Golf
team, which arrived here yesterday,
were indignant at the imputation that
their amateur standing had been af-
fected by their trip to the coast.
They denied that home clubs on the
coast had contributed to their ex-
penses.
"There is nothing to it at all,' said
Carl Duval, one of the party last
night. I'VE were invited by A. S.
Kerry, of Seattle. to come to the
coast and meet the golfers there as
his guests. We did so. We received
no compensation directly or Indirect
~, nor do we know of any beinG
given to any one in connection witt
our trip. The charges are wholly
unfounded"

of the game from the gentler sex.
The crowd extended far into Treat

called upon to make room for traffic.
Every hit and sensational play
made by the Tigers was greeted with
loud cheers, and Wyatt Lee missed
some of the sensations of victory by
being too far away to catch the echo
of the demonstrations that followed
each of the strikeouts. Demmit s three
