KRAMER SKATERS
LAWSON'S RECORD
big Steve" Rides Quarter Mile
in % Us Seconds in Prac-
tise Spin.
SIX WATCHES CATCH TIME

The race meet at New Haven to-
night will take most Of the profess
SIGNALS away from the Velodrome and
will give Walter Rutt and Frank
Kramer the track to themselves and
allow these champions to put the fin
ishing touches to their training for
their second match next Sunday.
Rutt and Kramer were both billed TO
appear at the New Haven meet but
after urgent requests to be excused,
they were scratched from the races
there. At the Velodrome yesterday
afternoon Kramer gave an exhibition
of speed such as was never seen be
fore. The weather was perfect and
the champion felt like riding-sort o.
champing at the bit, as it were, for q
mad dash against time. He said ne
felt as though he could annihilate
most anything, and he surely did
shatter the long standing quarter
mile mark made by Iver Lawson in
Salt Lake many years ago.
1t took Kramer just % "a seconds
to ride the $40 yards, which is two
fifths Of a second faster than any
rider ever covered the distance
in before. Lawson's worlds record is
% AS seconds, which. of course, still
stands, for Kramer's mark was made
with no official sanction. There were
six watches on Kramer when he made
his great ride, and three of them reg
istered the quarter in % 2-5 seconds.
ALI Goullet pulled Kramer up to the
eighth and the time for the uterine
date distances was eighth in II 20
seconds and twelfth in I 3-5 seconds.
The first eight was done in II seconds
fiat.
Rutt Watches Kramer.
Walter Rutt watched Kramer make
his ride, and the worlds champion
scowled and looked perplexed when he
heard the time Kramer made. The
famous German never took his eyes
off of Kramer and when Frank
jumped by Goullet as though he was
standing still, while "Goullie" was GO
ing at the rate of u seconds TO the
eighth, or / minute SO seconds to the
mile, his eyes opened wide in aston
ishment. 1t was one of the greatest
exhibitions of speed ever seen and
Walter Rutt knew il.
The real merit of Kramer's ride can
be realized when it is compared with
LaWson's mark, which was made at
Salt Lake in the rarefied air which
makes difference of at least / sec
ond in a quarter-mile. The fastest
quarter ever ridden in the East before
was "a AS seconds, at Manhattan
Beach in 1900 by Owen Kimble, that
celebrated quarter horse" from Ken
lucky.
After Kramer's ride Rutt thought
he would go a quarter to see what he
could do, but changed his mind when
he came to realize that he had his
training wheel and a small gear.
The worlds champion rode a sixth
of mile in 16 2-5 seconds, which Is
fast, and did the last twelfth in I 4-5
seconds. That sprint is fast enough
to win most bike races at the Velo-
drome or anywhere else.

Three Extra-Inning Games

TIGERS OUT OF FIRST PLACE

Three extra inning games played in
the International League speak vol

the Tigers skidded from first place
back to third position. 1t Is the first
time this season that the Newark
team is out of first place. The only
contest that was decided within the

Curtis Not In Fern.

Another very busy individual in
yesterdays tilt was Harry Myers,
centre field patrolman for the Ben
gals. Hi had two triples and drove
i'm enough runs to win an ordinary
game Cliff Curtis, however, could
not hold the enemy in check, no more
than Keefe could keep the Tigers in
leash. Both were replaced by sub
stitnte fingers. Upham went on the
mound for -Keefe in the sixth and In
the seventh Schacht replaced Curtis.
So it was that Schacht was charged
with his first defeat of the season.
Al has shown good form this spring
and has won two games and lost one.
Manager Smiths plan evidently is to
keep Schacht for emergencies, so that
he will learn how TO keep cool under
FIRE.

Getz Timed 1t Nicely.

In committing his theft Getz had
more nerve than at first would appear
on the surface, for Gus had to figure
on Keefe, who is a veteran patcher,
and as a rule uses very little wind-up.
Getz had arrived on first base on his
own single to start the inning. A
sacrifice and an infield out sfpoed Getz
to third. and there it was that he
cut loose with his daring dash. Getz
is the second Tiger to steal home in a
week. Myers pulled the trick in New
ark Sunday before the big crowd
which saw the Bengals and Bisons
break even.

Rochester Hustlers Capture
Contest from Tigers in
Tenth Round.
GETZ STEALS HOME PLATE
Myers's Triples Put Newark in
Front Twice, but Tooley's
Peg Is Costly.

ROCHESTER,, n. Y, May S.-once
again 1t was by a one-run margin
that Newark Rochester game was
decided. The Hustlers and the Tigers
fought down through nine innings in a
see-saw battle that finally wound up in
the tenth, TO 5, in Rochester's favor
The Rochester band won out after
Newark had taken the lead in the
early part of the tenth by scoring one
run. The Hustlers came back with
two TALES. On the opening day of
the series here, Eddie Zimmerman s
error proved costly. Yesterday a wild
throw by Bert Tooley upset the ship.
Newark's work in the early rounds
was brilliant to say the least. Gus
Getz succeeded in stealing home in
the third inning, tieing the score: it
was a daring steal and prettily exc
cuted. 1t is seldom that a visiting
player steals "home" on the road, for
the simple reason that the average
umpire will call him out to please the
crowd if the play is at all close.
Getzs steal was so clean-cut that
there was no doubt about it.

rows second safety-this time
single. Barrows is playing great
ball in spite of the fact that his leg
bothers him very much. The bone
bulges badly where it was broken last
year and retards his speed; but Bar
rows does not spare himself. There
is no grittier player In the league

Wilson Won't Request 4
Neutral Shipping Zone

Washington, D. c., Dec. /
President Wilson takes the view
that the establishment of neutral
zones for shipping in the western
hemisphere, as proposed by sever
al South American countries, must
be entirely voluntary on the part
of European belligerents. He told.
callers today that he had discussed
the question, briefly with Secretary
Bryan and Acting Secretary Lans-
ing, of the state department, but
no conclusion had been reached.
The American countries natul al
ly would have no control of the
waters outside of the three mile
limit bordering on their territory
the president said, and could place
no restrictions on the operations
|of the fleets of the other nations
except within the three mile limit.
