JAY EATON AND NORMAN ANDERSON GIVE THE LIE
TO IDEA THAT BIKE RACING IS INJURIOUS TO HEAL TIL

Bike racing has often been declared
an injurious sport, especially six-day
racing. The gee gaws were. twenty
years ago, absolutely positive that the
great cycle riding craze of that time
was going to make us a bumped
back, conceived ehested tubercular hui
manity. with longevity reduced to not
more than two-score years at the
most. But instead of being injurious,
it is. to the contrary, apparently a
most healthful exercise.
If it is injurious there is no rider
who has reached the age where the
strenuous sport has begun to show
any ill-effect. There are two riders
competing at every meet at the Velo-
drome who will soon reach the half
century mark, and they are as fit as
they were twenty years ago. They
are not as fast as they were, but they
are still able to win races and leave
the track as fresh as the riders who
are half their age.
One is Jay Eaton, who was a great
rider in the days of Eddie Bald, and
the other is Norman Anderson, of
Denmark. They are both forty-four
years old, and they have been racing
for just an even twenty years. When
he was in his prime Eaton was known
as the Indoor King and was un-
beatable on the indoor tracks. Eleven

years ago, in London, Anderson won
twenty-three straight races at the Elk
position track, and Rutt. Jacquelin,
Schilling and other famous stars were
defeated by the Dane when he made
this great record
Anderson has won several races this
season, and he has been placed Sec
| ond and third in quite a number. In
the quarter mile handicap Sunday
Anderson gave sixteen riders a hand
leap Of from five to twenty yards,
and these riders were all from ten to
| twenty years younger than he.
Eaton's best performance this year
was riding from the front in a one
I third mile handicap, which he won,
and the riders behind him could not
gain an inch on him. And that race
was almost a full second better than
the worlds record. Eaton had a long
mark. but il was only the long mark
ers who made the final which made
it almost a scratch race
Eaton has never tasted qfpr in his
life, and Anderson has consumed bar
rels of it during the years he has been
racing. and today Anderson is the
better rider. All of which goes to
show that life on the water wagon
is not such an advantage athletically
as il is cracked up to be. What will
! you have, boys2

Ray Moves clever performance at
bat and in the field since his return
to the Tigers lineup is the talk of
local baseballdom. Ray is hitting
better than ever. II the work of the
Bengal shortstop in the game yester-
day is to be taken as a criterion, he
is sure to be of great service during
the remainder of the season. Ray
was largely responsible for the Tigers
victory yesterday. He started rallies
which Melted the Tigers the first two
runs. incidentally, Move showed con-
clusively that he is one of the best
men on the bases in the league. Bert
Tooley had fell off somewhat in his
hitting, but the shift in sending Move
to replace him at short was a wise
move on the part of Manager Harry
Smith, for the Bengals have been win
ming with more regularity of late.
Al Mattern worked in grand fash
ion yesterday. and got out of several
holes, with men on the bases. AL, it
seems, still is able to display some
fine pitching ability.
Johnny Enzmann is not being given
the best show in the world over in
Brooklyn, 1t is said. Johnny started
but one game since joining the DOug-
ers, and although he didn't fare so
well he should be given another
chance. Johnny is being used as a
relief pitcher, which is MOTTO his lik-
ing He worked for awS4le jim the
game against the Reds yesterday.
Watty Lee or Sherrod Smith will
probably be used in the second of the
series of games with the Leafs today,
1t looks like another victory.
Jersey City tried its best to help the
Bengals yesterday, but luck favored
the Bisons and the latter won out by
a one point margin.
LEO Callahan and Eddie thinner
man had a big day with the stick
yesterday. Leo was there with three
singles. while Eddie Zimmerman had

German and Australasian
Tennis Teams Practise

PITTSBURGH, July 2S.-The Allie
gheny Country Club at Sewickley,
where the semi-fnal match between
the Australasian and German tennis
teams for the Davis cup will be
played this week, was the Mecca OF
Western tennis enthusiasts yesterday.
4 large gallery saw the members of
the teams go through gruelling prac-
tise under a hot sun. The Germans
Otto Froitzheim and Oscar Kreutzer,
were out early. The members of the
Antipodean party played golf In the
afternoon both parties engaged in sin
giles with their partners and doubles
with local players.
The effect of the Austrian-Servia
crisis on the coming match was the
subject of much discussion by N. E..
PROXIES and A. w Wilding, of the
Antipodean team, and it was brought
ont that Wilding is lieutenant in
the Kings Colonials of New Zealand.
Froitzheim, who is lieutenant in the
German army, although uneasy over
the war scare. declares he will go
ahead with his practise.

LONGWOOD TROPHY
TOSTAY ON COAST
Mclaughlin and Murray to Play
for Right TO Meet
Johnston.
WILLIAMS FIGHTS HARD

BOSTON, July 2S-The Longwood
tennis bowl will remain on the Pacific
coast another year. as the result of
the victories of Maurice e. McLough-
lin and r. Lindley Murray, both of
California, in the singles event yester-
day. The winner of the Mclaughlin
Murray match today will meet Will
lam NJ. Johnston. also of California,
holder of the trophy, tomorrow New
York will hold the Eastern doubles
championship through the success in
the semi-finals of the former national
champions, Hackett and Alexander
and of Bem and Pell Mclaughlin is
a strong favorte in his match today
with Murray, but the struggle for the
Eastern doubles title between the two
New York pairs was regarded as
about even.
Although Mclaughlin carried off his
match in the semi-1nals with r. Nor
ris Williams, 3D. of Philadelphia, in
was the finest seen since the two Da-
Wis cup players met in the finals at
Newport last year.
Williams seemed to possess more
finished game. but his numerous en-
rors at critical stakes lost him many
chances. Just as the crowd was ex-
pecting the Philadelphia player to OBJ
tain a commanding lead. he began
double faulting or netting easy re-
turns. He handled McLoughlin's ter
rifle service better than any player
seen on American courts, and it was
only when the champion caught Will
Jams off his foot that a service ace re-
suited Williams also covered the
court surprisingly well, and Nc
Loughlin failed many times to score
apparently sure kills.
The Californian fairly outplayed
Williams at his hard hitting game,
scoring "a clean places on drives fore
hand and back to Williams's II. Nc
Loughlin scored but one service ace
in each set and Williams the same
number The champion served but
three double faults, while Williams
eerved II.
The doubles match between Hackett
and Alexander and Fottrell and Muir
ray was a lively affair, but the greater
individual brilliancy of the young
Calfornians proved of little avail
against the superior team work of the
old titleholders. Murray played his
usual dashng game, but Fottren was
unable to back him up.
In the other doubles event Dabney
was the star, as Niles was badly off
his game. In this match also the
team work proved the stronger combi-
nation. for Pell and Bahr were in close
harmony.
Earlier in the afternoon Murray
played three hard sets with Wallace
+. Johnson, of Philadelphia, and being
fresh his dash and quickness carried
off the match.

MOVIES EXCELLENT WORK
HAS LOCAL FANS TALKING

The Grays have three regulars who
are hitting above the 300 mark in
Eddie Onslow, Platte and Tutwiler.
Walter Pipp. the Hustlers' smuggling
first sacker. has practically agreed to
sign a three-y year contract with the
Detroit club. Pipp came to Roches-
ter on an optional agreement from
Detroit, so it is natural, .hat he should
agree TO play with Jennings.
More things are worrying the
Royals besides that burned grand
stand. The players say that Sammy
Lichtenhein did not buy new pants
for them this season and the boys are
afraid to slide, lest they rub a patch
off the seat and be arrested for stag
ing a September morn.
Hi Myers will be unable to do
regular work in the outfield for the
Dodgers for a week or so. The former
Tiger injured his thumb in the game
with the Reds last Saturday.
Ellis johnson, who worked against
the Bengals yesterday, is looked upon
as Toronto's best pitcher. With
johnson out of the way the Leafs
should have some hard going in the
next two contests
Pitcher Luque, of the Skeeters.
acted in the role of pinch hitter for
Finger Bruck, of the Pests, in the
game with the Bisons yesterday, and
clouted out a triple.
The Grays lost hard game yester-
day in ten innings to the Hustlers
Platte, of the clam diggers, had a
homer; Powell, a pair of triples, and
Schultz double. Kocher's wild
heavc in the ninth inning paved the
way to a Rochester victory.
F Joe Yeager is back with the Royals.

PLAYERS LOOK FOR SWEEP

Special to the Evening Star.
TORONTO, Can, July 2S.-The
Tigers look for three straight vic
tories over the Maple Leafs in the
present series. The team captured
the first game yesterday. with Al
Mattern in the box, by the score of
TO 2, and with Pitchers Watty Lee,
Sherrord Smith and Al Schacht ready
to work, the Bengals should have no
trouble at all in winning today's and
tomorrow's battles. Mattern pitched
mastery ball yesterday, holding the
troublesome Leafs to seven scattered
hits and striking out five batsmen
Then too. the Bengals continued
their terrific hitting, corralling total
of eleven safe drives from the de-
livery of pitcher Ellis Johnson, who
went the route for Joe Kelleys men.
Ray Move and Leo Callahan led the
champions in the swatting bee, each
securing trio of singles. Eddie
zimmerman was also there with
pair of timely drives and it was his
single in the eighth session that sent
the winning run over.
