RUTT WILL START
IN S|X-DAY RACE
Worlds Premier Cyclist Cables
He'll Be in Shape for New
York Grind.
WAS NOT SERIOUSLY HURT

Walter Rutt. the famous German
cycle champion, is not seriously in
1ured, and will sail for this country
very shortly to take part In the an
nual six-day bicycle race at Madison
Square Garden next month. The re
port sent over last Sunday from Paris
was to the effect. that Rutt had been
terribly injured and was at the point
of death. Yesterday Pat Powers re-
ceived a cable from Victor Breyer, the
foreign representative of the six-day
race, saying that Rutt was but slight
~ injured and would be ready TO sail
for New York In company with the
other foreign cycle stars who are to
compete In the long grind.
This will be most welcome news TO
the many friends of the German rider.
Rutt has competed in several of the
Garden races and has always been
not only strong factor but winner
on more than one occasion, and al
ways a tremendous favorite with the
cycle fans. Breyer's cable did not
contain any details OF the accident
but puts at rest the report that the
popular rider Is seriously hurt.

FISTICUFFS ENLIVEN GAME

Battin High School, of Elizabeth,
proved too strong for st. Benedicts
College in a football game played
yesterday at Newark Athletic Park,
the Betsytowners winning by a
score of q to IL. Battin's victory
was chiefly due to the success OF the
open play method against the
straight football tactics Of the Bene-
diets. Markthaler to Becker was the
route of forward pass that netted
great distances for the Battinites. 1t
was the final quarter before the Ben
edicts diagnosed the open play OF
the Battin team. Near the close of
the game McDermit intercepted the
oval in the air and ran through the
field for n touchdown.
Battin scored in IL first few min
utes of play Markthaier opened up
with q forward pass to Becker that
netted twenty yards. Twenty yards
more were gained on O succession of
Priff's rushes, after which Becker
circled the end for the initial score
of the day. Davidson kicked the goal.
st. Benedicts collected its first toll
in the second quarter. Neither team
was able to pierce the others de-
Tense after the kickoff and the leather

George and Cavanaugh plunged
down the field to the one-yard mark,
whence McDernit scored Hugh
Gilligan kicked the goal. Battin came
right back. Two forward passes,
MarkthaIer to Becker, placed the
ball within striking distance of the
Benedict goal, where Priff, the Battin
fullback, slammed 1t over the goal
line In two plunges.
In the third quarter Battin added
another score TO its tally. The for
ward pass was varied with a fake
forward. Becker secured the pigsl1in
and ran twenty yards through q
broken field to a touchdown. David
son kicked the goal.
The final quarter began with tho
score q to Z in favor of the Eliza
hethans. McDermit intercepted
forward pass and scored before he
could be headed. Gilligan added an
other point on his try, for the goal
After this the Benedlcts fought
hard to tie the Battinites McDer-
