CLOSE FINISHES AT JUAREZ

JUAREZ, Mex, Jan. 14.-Racing
yesterday was the most spectacular
witnessed at the local track in some
time. All the finishes were close.
The Laredo Handicap, at five and
one-half furlongs, the feature of the
card, went to Gypsy Love by the
shortest of margins, with Bob Hens
ley in second place and Captain
, Burns third. Jockey Neylon furnish
ed an excellent ride on the winner.
Lady Capricious, Gypsy Love, Ed
mond Adams and Dynamo were the
first choices to score.

player advancing but the club own
ers were not as altruistic as Lawlor
was big hearted. O'Rourke Is well
proportioned physically for the catch
er's Job, being a strapping big fellow
and good hitter. His throwing,
however, is not as accurate as might
be. This defect could easily be
remedied.
Northen Sold to New Orleans.
Hob Northen, who finished the
season with the Tigers as an out
fielder, after Bill Collins had been
taken by Brooklyn, and Jack Dalton
was idle through forced suspension,
will keep Bob Higgins company in
New Orleans. Northen was turned
over to the Queen City team yester-
day. Hubs" home is in Texas, and
he is not at all adverse to playing
under the sweltering Dixie sun. With
Witterstaetter's signed contract in,
the Newark management decided to
let Northen out. The news that
waivers had been asked on Northern
and Higgins was printed exclusively
in the Evening Star in November.
at
Eschen Lost to Sleeters.
The New York Americans have ex-
ercised an option on Jimmy Eschen,
the crack outfielder of the Shelters,
leaving big gap in the Pests out
field. Eschen Is a likely looking
youngster, shaping up exceptionally
well at bat. Before becoming a reg
u1ar, however, he will have to pick
up some pointers on base running,
and If Frank Chance is unable to
bring him up to the standard the
Skeeters will welcome his return for
another years seasoning. The most
likely looking outflelder in the Skee-
ters' list is Cooper, purchased from
Baltimore two months ago. If played
regularly, Cooper may develop into
a star. He is exceptionally fast on
the bases.
The Luck of the Game.
Here's how the Brooklyn club lost
a good shortstop and the Yanks a
good pitcher: Brooklyn put In draft
on Columbus player. So did the
New York Yankees. Frank Chance
won and picked King Cole, a pitcher,
instead of Gerber. Cole. instead of
taking his chance to play with big
league club jumps to the Federals,
while Gerber, most promising and
ambitious player, must remain with
Columbus. Such is luck. which plays
most prominent part In ball play
er's career.

Newark Evening Start
PARIS, Jan. 1.-THE break In the
six-day race came sooner than ex-
pected. when, shortly after midnight,
eight teams were Tapped in a big
JAM" 1t was the first real jam OF
the race and when the terrific sprint
ing was over the Clark-Root (Amer-
ica), Engel-Deruyter France-Bel-
gium), Wirth- Cottrell (France), JAG
quelin-Beyl France), Leon
ard (France), Depauw-vandeveld
Belgium), and Thys Meurger
France), teams were Tapped.
Paris Fans Amazed.
1t was a great surprise when the
team OF Clark and Root were Tapped
The other teams that fell behind
were 80 to 1 In the betting and It was
anticipated that they would be
placed in the second division when
the first concerted effort was made
to break up the field. But Clark and
Root were to 1 in the betting, be-
fore the start of the race, and
showed so strong on the first day
these odds appeared false.
Jackie Gives Up.
But the big surprise came two
hours later when Clark retired from
the contest. Called the terrible
team from across the Atlantic" the
Root-Clark team was expected to &C
through without losing ground, much
)ess quit the race entirely.
Dupre and Thys Out.
Before the immense crowd had re-
covered from their establishment
anent the retirement of Clark and
Root, the announcement was made
that big Victor Dupre and Thys had
given up the contest. Dupre was
teamed with vanhouwaert, the great
Belgian slayer, and was a strong
favor1te. Last year Dupre finished
second in the race.
Everyone for Himself.
During frequent sprfnts that mark
ed the first twenty-four hours of the
race it was evident that the Ameri-
can teams were protecting each
other, and 1t was not expected that
any of them would be Tapped, but
when the big jam which proved SC
disastrous to two of the favorite
com hin ationa was on the riding was
of such a desperate nature the
American teams were compelled tc
look after their individual interests
and were unable to assist each other
Goullet and BRENDA Strong.
The team of GouIlet and Grenda
the favorites in the race, showed tc
advantage in the big jam and theil
stock has been boosted as result.

last fall by several players which
the authorities frowned upon, al
though they took no official action.
Undergraduate sentiment strongly
favors the stand the board has taken
in the matter.
The announcement follows earlier

tending to eliminate, as much as
possible, 'the faint of professional
ism from Princeton athletes and ath-
letics.'

wrestling teams of the University of

a trip to Pittsfield, where in response
to request from Owner Farrell he
conferred with Marty McHale, the
