CHANCE MAY DRAFT OUTFIELDER
FROM THE NEWARK CLUBS ROSTER

Frank Leroy Chance, manager of
the New York Yankees, came over
yesterday to watch two Montreal
players perform. He was more i'm
pressed, however, with the work of
the Newark outfielders than the per-
Torrance of Gilhooly and Burns. the
two Royal youngsters who have been
recommended to him.
Chance needs outfielders and was
very much impressed with the work
of Collins, w. Zimmerman and Myers.
The p Q. NJ" in particular, had a
very good day with the stick, while
Ceilings showed dashing speed on the
bases. Myers took care of everything
that came his way. Which of the
three made the best impression is not
known, because Chance only smiled
when qulzzed, but it will be no sur
prise If the names of some of New
ARK gardeners are included in the
list OF drafted players taken from
minors by the Yanks this season.

Frank Cory $500. In all the sum to-
tai amounted to $5,s25. Some of the
riders who made so much blow about
the big money they were receiving
now find themselves in a position to
do considerable explaining. One rider,
a former paced king, who declared his
bonus called for $4,000 is down on the
list for only $3.50, and the Velodrome
contingent were thinking about COM
pelling the rider to pay a fine at the
rate of $4,000, instead of on $3.50. In
the case of the little fellows, they
were given $25 week and they will
pay fines of SIS. The list of riders.

fines imposed are as follows:

The decision of the N. C. A. to place
in good standing, in lieu of a fine, the
pro cyclists who competed at the Mo-
tordrome can be criticised in one way,
and it can be commended in another
way. Opinion on the one side seemed
to be that the OUTLAWS" should be
severely punished in order to teach
them a lesson and to provide an OBJ
ject-lesson for future occasions. Then
you could hear the argument ad-
vanced that the OUTLAWS" were sim
ply exercising a prerogative and that
when provision was made for a con-
solidation all the riders should have
been given a clean bill of health and
put on plane Of equality the same as
came to pass in the case of the pro-
moters. The rather harsh arguments

GOSSIP OF THE Big LEAGUE PLAYERS

The Detroit Tigers have purchased
Pug" Cavet, the star pitcher of the
Mobile club, of the Southern Associa-
ton.
Another old-timer who is slated to
return to the big leagues next spring
is "Gabby" Street, the veteran back
stop, now playing with Chattanooga,
In the Southern League. In the spring
of 1912 Street came to the Yankees
from the Washington Senator'S, and
was expected to do much of the work
behind the bat for New York. His
throwing arm went back on him and
he was released to Providence during
the middle of the season. Providence
sent him to Chattanooga in the win
ter. where he has done splendid work
behind the bat all season.
Walter Leverenz, the Browns
southpaw, who has a name like a
Frenchman, looks like an Irishman
and is a German, used to the black
smith in Chicago.

AROUND AND AROUND AT THE YELODROME

Jackie Clark is satisfied So is Kra-
mer. And the fans saw a dandy race.
The announcement that the Motor
drome riders would appear at the
Velodrome Wednesday night was re-
ceived with cheers.
Two moving picture operators had
their machines at the track yesterday
and kept busy making films.
The operator on the lower turn had
a splendid chance to get spill, when
Grassy" Ryan went down in the
misS-and-out race and carried Ernie
Pye with him. If the spill had been
prearranged. 1t could not have hap
pened any better for the picture man.
And someone was unkind enough to
ask Pye, as he walked back up the
track, holding a big lump on the back
of his head, how much he got for TAX
ing the header and doing double
somersault.
The crowd, except those in posi-
ton to see that Kramer had won, did
not like the decision Of the judges in
Many thought Clark had won the
heat.
Just as the crowd had got through
Kissing the decision the announce
ment was made that the Motordrome
riders were coming back to the Velo-
drome. Better bring the judges over
with them!" shouted one unfeeling
man in the grand stand, who was the
possessor of a good pair of lungs and
very loud voice.
Grenda's ride in the open race was
a well-timed effort. He went to the
front and had just speed enough left
to win. At that Clark might have
got up in time had not Paddy Hehir
given him switch entering the home
stretch.
Goullet was out of the three-mile
open before 1t started. He got a
puncture just as the first batch got
away to q rolling start.

and the Peerless leader was surprised
TO see how Collins has improved and
developed since Chance sent him from
the Cubs to the Tigers two seasons
ago. Billy Zimmerman, who was once
the property of the Chicago Nationals,
put never wore a. Cub uniform, was at
his best yesterday. He made several
clever catches and his hitting was
hard and timely. Myers's speed and
his whip, as well as his batting eye
We're all noted by Chance. TheYanks
have been handicapped by outfielders
who cannot throw and are not slug
gers, outside of Cree. Chance could
take the entire Newark outfield and
make an improveent on his set of garI
deners for all around ability.
Catcher Burns, whom Chance wants.
was placed on exhibition yesterday.
He filled in at third base for the Roy-
ais in the first game because Yeager
had sore arm. Gilhooly also played
eleverly, but the price placed on him
is so prohibitive Chance says he has
practically decided to pass him up.
