CURTIS LATEST HOLD-OUT;
CY BARGER READY TO SIGN
Bill Collins, Also Heard From,
Wants to RejOin
Tigers.
PRAISES FOR HARRY SMITH
viii Turn Down Federal Offers
to Play for Newark
Manager.

Good news was mingled with the
bad at local baseball headquarters to-
day. While the Tigers management
is having some trouble in signing up
players. others are ready to fall in
line and have given assurance that
they will sign contracts sent to them
In short order The Newark Club just
now is experiencing trouble in getting
Cliff Curtis, the pitcher, to get into
line. Curtis is doing business with
the Federal League. and. while he has
made no efforts to sever his con-
nections with organized baseball, so
far he has refused to sign his Newark
contract. it is said.
Cy Barger, another twirser, writes
that he has received most tempting
offer from the Federals, but that he is
not In sympathy with the outlaws and
he will make sure that the Federal
League is going to be a success before
he even replies to any of their offers.
Cy says that he has not signed his
Newark contract, but will probably do
SO very shortly. The clever Bengal
twirler purchased an automobile last
fall on returning to his home, in CO.
lumbus. KY, and Is also interested in
an automobile company down there.
In addition. he has a farm, which
:. keeps him pretty busy. and he claims
that he Is always in good shape.
While the Federal League offered

calls for" says Cy, II am strong for
Harry Smith. He knows more about
handling men than any other mana
ger ever played with, and his judg
rnent in a game of baseball is as per-
feet as any mortal's can be.
-H-Of course, when one gets down to
brass tacks, we are all playing the
game for livelihood and when a fell
low has a chance to advance himself
by getting a bigger stipend. | can't
see how any one can blame him for
jumping. AT the same time. / want to
repeat that 1 am not in sympathy
with the Federal League. I have not
signed my Newark contract-not Just
yet, but I expect to send it through
SOON
Cy is more sentimental than most
ballplayers and has always been
noted for being loyal and hard
worker for every team he played on.
Cy is one of the most valuable, as
we'll as one of the headiest twirlers la |
the league. and he did his share to |
win the flag for Newark last year.
Bill Collins has also been heard /
from. The speedy outfelder has writ
ten to Manager Harry Smith, saying /
that he has heard the reports that /
Smith wanted him. IF l can't play /

goes on to say that he hears the +

though he Is homesick to return to

HARRY SMITH GETS
ENZMANN TO SIGN
Gus Getz, However, Asks for
Long Contract and
Big Increase.
TIGER LEADER KEPT BUSY

Manager Harry Smith, of the New
ark Club, announced today that he
had succeeded in getting the signed
contract of Johnny Enzmann, but
that Gus Getz was still out of the
fold. Smith visited Enzmann at
Brooklyn yesterday, and after a
short conference Johnny signed up.
Smith says that Enzmann reports
that his arm is coming around in
good shape and that he will be able
to win games as of yore for the
Tigers.
Gus Getz, the Bengal infielder who
is causing a lot of trouble by dicker-
ing with the Federals, sent tele-
gram to Harry Smith today asking
for a contract covering d term of
years, believed to be three years, at
an advanced figure. Getz claimed
that the Federals have increased
their offer again and have made such
an alluring proposition that he will
accept if the Newark Club does not
meet his demands. Manager Smith
stated that the Newark Club has
dealt fairly with all of the players
and that Getz had been offered an
increase in salary and that the New
ark Club could not make any better
terms than those already given.
Getz had promised to sign with
Newark ii the Federals did not post
their money yesterday. This they evil
IDENTIFY failed to do but they came
across with another offer that took
Gus's breath away and for the third
time he has sidetracked Smith.

C
The following letter was written
before the finish of the Paris six
day race and it will be observed that
the prediction as to the outcome and
other forecasts are not very wide of
the mark:
j. p. N:
Talking about the six-day race at
the Velodrome OLIVER, in Paris,
we take this opportunity to congratu-
late the Newark Evening Star for
the complete and satisfactory reports
of the race. The stories have been
as interesting and as attractive as
If the race was run in New York,
instead of in Paris. We have gone
over few French papers with the
abundant reports of the Clark Hour
lier match race, of the arrival Of the
American riders, of the preliminaries
to the six-day race, and we have
been surprised and glad to realize
how correctly the Evening star has
given the news to the Newark fans.
| We have come to the conclusion that
the Newark Evening Star is a re-
liable source of general sporting
news. and Sport Topics" the best
columns for cycling matters.
: Mr.. MacFarland has promised in
| his correspondence to the Evening
Star he will have here in Newark for
| next season the best sprinters of
Europe to compete in match races
with the local stars at the Velodrome
In fact, the busy manager is signing
up for the Newark track men like
| Hourlier and Rutt and the three
italian stars, Verri, Moretti and
Oliveri. This means the fans will
have to start and save for the com.
ing season. MacFarland is also pre-.
pairing surprise for the Newarl
fans. We think the surprise will bf
that he will have the championship
of the world to be run here in New
ark. This would be simply grand.
In talking of the six-day race il
Paris. we think the lineup wa.
great, the race combining men known
to be the best "sprinters and plug
gers" in the world. We have seer
almost every rider, here and in Eu
ter galaxy of riders than in the
Paris race. All famous and intelIi
gent men of the cycling game, it i
hard to pick out the winner. A,
Italians, we favor the teams of Verr
and Oliveri, and we are pretty sur.
one of the two will be in for secon,
or third money. AS next choic,
comes the real, true, strong team
OF Fogler and Moran. Anyhow, w,
are pretty sure the following me1
will meet for the final sprint: Rutt
, Verri, Goullet, Hourlier, Poulain
i Oliveri and Fogler. A Eupropea1
! team, we believe, will win the race
, for the same favoring conditions tina
Goullet and Fogier had in New York
We were not surprised in readin,
in French papers that Clark in hi,
, match race with Hourlier was fine,

Jimmy McVeish, on His CIeverness and
Generalship, Earns Popular Verdict
Over the Aggressive Jimmy Fasane.

planned well and executed we'll, and
he surprised me by the way he stood
and mixed It with the rough customer
before him and got away with the
honors in many of the exchanges.
I believed McVeigh to be a boxer,
pure and simple, with no kick" at all
In his punches, yet he fought last
night quite unlike his old self, and he
fought like boy who knows how
and when to fight. He beat Fasane
on clean hitting and he outboxed him
whenever the issue came up. He led
and landed any number of clean,
hard blows on his own initiative, and
he held his own most of the time in
the rough work and In the clinehes.
@
Some of the clever tactics of Nc
Weigh were lost sight of because Of
the rushing, aggressive methods en-
ployed by Fasane. McVeigh sent
singing right and left-hand upper
cuts to the face and body as Fasane
came rushing in, but considerable of
this effective inside. work was over
looked, as Fasane's blows were the
more spectacular. On his showing
last night McVeigh looks pretty good.
He did much better against Fasane
than did Young Gradwell or Carl Vic
tor, both of whom were beaten. Nc
Weigh against less aggressive fell
low ought to make great showing.
He has a clever left hand. which he
didn't use very much after the first
round, and he hooks and uppercuts
with his right hand as we'll as any
one we have seen lately. Little dam
age was done through the four
rounds. McVeigh had a bloody nose
and Fasane's face and body were red.
McVeigh had the better o. the first,
second and fourth rounds and Fasane
had the better Of the third round.
The fourth round was the best of
the contest, and McVeigh used rare
generalship and displayed much clev-
erness in that session. He won on
what was really done in the ring.
What he would do against Fasane
in longer bout, as some of the fans
argued, is another matter entirely.

Expect Racing in New York
TO Be Successful This Year

NEW YORK. Jan. 20.-While no
announcement has yet been made of
the racing plans for the coming sea-
son, beyond the fact that a number
of stakes have been closed, the prob
able schedule has been discussed by
representatives of the various racing
associations, 1t is expected that the
season will be more pretentious than
in 1913, and probably the start will be
made earlier.
1t has also been tentatively decided
that the New York dates will not all
be confined to Belmont Park and
Saratoga The Empire City course,
at Yonkers. will undoubtedly have
meeting, and, should there be racing
each day, instead of three days a
week, one other of the Long Island
tracks will be opened. Saratoga will
take the month Of August, as for
merly, but whether there will be any
September racing over the city tracks
is a question that has not yet been
decided.

ed that Kirkpatrick got $1,000 for

Wheat were always pals on the
Brooklyn club and it was thought
that Kirk would sign when Wheat
came through with his contract to
Brooklyn. But the money was too
tempting for Kirkpatrick to refuse.
No Federal League for Britton.
Arlington Britton, the young pitcher
drafted last fall from Lynn, is one
of the few Newark players who has
not been bothered by the Federal
Leaguers. Britton writes that he is
ready to sign with the Newark Club,
and that he will report for the train

squad will assemble In Newark be-
lore the southwark journey, with the
exception of a few members who live

A much improved boy is Jimmy
McVeigh since his advent into big
company, and he showed in his
fight with Jimmy Fasane at Gus
Troxler's last night that he can box
and he can fight. and that he can
take a stiff punch without filnching.
He is clever, and on top of 1t he
knows ring tactics 80 well that he
was able to show to advantage over
his opponent In three of the four
great, and not few of the specta-
tors felt as If Fasane, If anything,
should be given the verdict This
opinion came about because Fasane,
desperate-looking fellow, rushed
desperately at every opportunity His
style is a rushing style, SNOWY style
and style that wins applause and
the hearts of the fans, but in this
particular case the raging, tearing
style assumed by F'asane didn't offset
the cool, clever and snappy style of
his adversary.
G.
McVeigh won-won on his merits.
He did the cleaner work and the better
work. He studied his moves and he
made them when they counted most.
He outfelnted Fasane and he out
boxed him, and he really outfought
the rough. slam-bang fellow at times.
There were occasions when Fasane
looked to be ramming MoVeigh into
submission. but in most Gases his
blows We're blocked. and Moveigh,
with much elaboration. really had the
better of the exchanges. Fasane is Il
taking boxer and his work appeals
to the audience. He forces and he
leads and he leads, but there is more
noise than danger in his attacks. He
is so willing, so aggressive that many
are carried away with his efforts, and
perhaps this accounts for the division
of opinion that prevailed when the
contest was over last night.
o
In giving the decision to McVeigh
am doing SO on the superior ability
the superior intelligence, he displayed
over Fasane in the ring. McVeigh
