PARIS, March Going out of his
class, American Champion Frank
Kramer scored a signal victory at the
Velodrome oliver yesterday after
noon, when he defeated Octave Lapize,
the French distance rider, in a tam
dem-paced race. The Yankee marvel
won an uphill battle, coming back
after losing the first heat and taking
the second and third heats in impress
sive style. The distance of the heats
was four kilometers, trifle less than
two and half miles.
Lapize is the best man in Europe
behind the tandems, with the one ex-
ception of Emil Engel, and before the
start of the race 1t was believed here
that the great Kramer would be de-
feated
After the Frenchman's victory in
the first heat the confidence of the
French bike enthusiasts was in
creased. When Kramer showed his
! mastery in the following heats he re-
ceived probably the greatest ovation
ever extended a foreign rider in
France Tho Yankee is now pro-
claimed here to be theSgreatest all
around rider in the world and one of
the worlds greatest athletes.
Lapize is not a sprinter and his only

going that his great sprint would be
missing. But to the surprise of the
b'renchman, The American was not
only able to hold all the pace given
him, but called for more from the
start TO the finish In the final heat.
This was Kramer's sixth consecutive
victory in match races in Europe this
winter, and he has not met with de-
feat. Race followers here say that
Kramer is riding faster than at any
time during any of his previous cam
paigns on the tracks of the Continent

not in the best of condition and the
race with the French sprint champion
has been postponed indefinitely.
kramer's next appearance here will
be In the Prize Consol General, which
will be run next Sunday. The Prize
Consol General is an annual classic
an open event, run in heats, with three
men in the final. Kramer competed
in this race last winter and was de-
feated by Hourlier. Thorwald Ellie
gard was the third man in the final
last year, and the teaming Of Hourlier
and the Dane brought about the de-
feat of the Yankee. Both Ellegaard
and Hourlier will probably be among
the starters in the classic this year.

Worlds Baseball Tourists
Are HOmeward Bound

LONDON. March Come back
again. was shouted from dozens of
Threats intermittingly with the lusty
English cheers and American "Rah,
Rah, Rahs,' as the Giants and Weite
Sox pulled out from London Satur-
day en- route for Liverpool to board
the Lusitania for New York.
1T has certainly been one corking
finish to our world tour" was the
way Manager McGraw described their
last strenuous week. I'VE are de-
lighted with the reception given us in
London. Everywhere we have expert
enced the greatest hospitality and
friendship. We would liked to have
played one or two more games here,
because we believe the British public
would soon grow crazy over the game.
If anyone cared to make a thorough
missionary effort there would soon be
nearly as many fans and players in
London as in New York
The English people have told me
they think the game combines the
best points of their native games,
cricket and football, and is superior
to both. We shall be glad TO reach
home, but it has been a great trip"
One thing is certain, weeks rest
aboard the Lusitania will do the
players good, for it has been one swift
time for all of them.

a big factor in the league race this sea-
son. They have a good team and 1t
is marked by uniformity. They have
a fine pitching and catching corps
and an excellent outf1eld, and before
O'Day gets through they will have
a good infield.

Requests for Blanks Coming in
for All Parts of
State.
LOCAL BOYS TO COMPETE

That the New Jersey State amateur
boxing tournament that is to be held
at the Turn Verein March I and 9
is arousing considerable interest
throughout the State is evident from
the fact that almost daily requests
are received from all parts of the
State for entry blanks and other in
formation about this event. Numerous
entries have already been received
by the secretary, and they cover
many cities.
One of the important entries re-
ceived is that of Jean Mason Smith,
the present titleholder in the 1856
pound class, who is entered in the 145-
pound class this year, as he is un-
able to get down to 1876 pounds.
Another is that of Robert Williams,
jr., who should come very close to
anneXing the title in the 115-pound
class. He is rated as one of the
cleverest little fellows in the State.
Both of these entries are from Prince
ton College.
A representative of the United
States Marine Corps will try to annex
the title in the 15S pound class. He
is James j. McKeon, attached to the
hdIlllS bdTfdthS at wharton, IN. y,
New Brunswick will have two entries
in this class, and they are both very
good.
Jersey City will have at least a
dozen men entered from various clubs
while up to the present time entries
have been received from Paterson,
Passaic. Orange. Irvington, Harrison
Kearny, while Newark will, of course
have the largest entry list. and will
have at least forty.
OF the local clubs. the Puritan A. C
will easily again have the largest en-
try list as Manager McGreevy, is
grooming several men for each class
and is certain that they will have
several champions after the battle is
over.
The Roneitsch A. c. expects to en-
ter at least six men, while the. Turn
ers will have at least one man in each
class. As the entries do not close I'M
til Wednesday, March 4. there are
any number of simon pures TO be
heard from yet.

Enzmann, pitcher of the Newark
champion Tigers, and a twirler who
has a right to be classed as a men,
Der of the champions, is working hard
TO develop a new slow ball. Enzmann
has long been trying to perfect
change of pace which might resemble
Cy Barger's drowsy drop. A slow bali
matched against a fast one makes IT
look to the batter as though the
pitcher has twice the ordinary amount
of smoke. Jack says his wing, which
was warped last season from strain.
is in fine fettle but he will nurse it
more carefully than ever. He be-
lieves that if he can get as good con
| troll of his slow one in a game as he
has in practise he will save much
! wear and tear on his valuable right
wing. II Enzmann can develop a
class change of pace to go with
his smoky delivery he will surely be
grabbed off by the big leaguers.

o'Rourke Not So Green.

Jack O'Rourke, the only wind-pad
artist in the camp aside from Harry
Smith, has proven a popular member
of the party so far, because of his
quiet and unassuming manner.
O'Rcurke says that he thinks he will
hit nearly as we'll in the international
as he did last year if he gets the
chance. "They don't pitch in this
league like they do in the bushes"
said O'Rourl1e. Down there they
are trying to strike you out every
time you come up, even when the
game is hopelessly won or lost"
o'Rourlle seems to have good common
horse sense and talks as though he
should prove a heady catcher.

eyes on the ball before Beanie" Hall

his wildness and none of the Bengal
bat-wielders care to take O. chance at

spring with Brooklyn, Hall was called
the "wrecker" by his teammates.
During single basketball game he
poked his finger in Nap Fuckers eye,
nearly binding him. He then succeed
ed in getting Pat Ragon's finger be-

digits so that it bled. He wound up

his head before the game ended After
