Followers of New Jersey track
athletics will be surprised to hear
that Jackie Mara, the all-around ath-
lete, of Paterson, intends to make a
mighty effort to come back in time
for the Catholic Young Mems Dioce-
san Unions games, August s. Mara
is well known in Newark, and he was
at his best about eight years ago
when competing for the Belleville
club. His speciality was the century
dash, an event which he rarely failed
to win in good time.
For the past three weeks the little
veteran has been getting the creases
out of his muscles by practising
starts every day. In the good old
times Mara was the fastest man in
the East at the start, and he vows
that he is as fast as ever despite his
thirty-five years. Jackie will try out
his legs and wind next Saturday in
the Entire Nous games at Paterson.
He will compete for his old club, the
Belleville C. c., in the Diocesan
games.
Charlie Watcher the local athlete,
who sports the silks of the Knights Of
st. Anthony, is tearing along like the
wind at the Branch Brook track. Wal
cher is down for the 300yard dash
next Saturday in the Entire Nous
games at Paterson.
Frank Lagay, of Dartmouth and
Newark, will doubtless be the scratch
man in the s00-yard dash event in
the Paterson games on Saturday.
Frank has kept in tip-top form ever
since his remarkable performance on
the Fourth of july at New Bruins
wick. and ON paper he looks like a
winner.

After another tour of the Eastern
section of the country Manager Jack
Dunn. of the Baltimore International
League club, returned to his home
town last night and announced the
sale of his southpaw pitcher, Ensign
Cottrell, to the Boston National
League club. Dunn at the same time
picked up Ike Roussey, Baltimore
semi-pro, whom the Oriole leader ex-
poets to develop into star. While
Dunn did not give out the price re-
ceived for Cottrell. he said 1t was a
good one and that all hands were
satisfied. With the addition of Cot
trell, who was the Birds best finger,
the Braves hopes as pennant con-
tenders have been increased. Boston
is now only nine games behind the
leading New York Giants. The Braves
have won seventeen out of its last
twenty games.
Dave Danforth is another Oriola
finger who is on the market. Even
though owning ball club doesn't
pay, Manager Dunn will pick up a
fortune selling his players.
Danforth clouted out homer in
the game with the Royals yesterday.

that he had faced Kline Hommey
took terrible beating. The local

the Gotham lad was forced to clineh
often in the third round Had the
bout gone one round more Kline
