HEILAND VICTOR At
NEW BRUNSWICK
Local Splinter Runs Fast in
I0O-Yard Dash-Lagay
Wins "44O."
GRANGER IN FINE FETTLE

Newark athletes won many prizes
in the athletic competitions held on
the Fourth of July. At New Bruns-
wick Hal Holland was the speediest
man in the 100-yard dash, and he won
first place after covering the distance
in the fine time of 10 1-5 seconds. In
the 440-yard open event. Frank Lagay
conceded liberal handicaps, and then
defeated his opponents in impressive
style. William Weber, the junior
half-mile champion, who sports the
Elizabeth Y. M. c. A. emblem, nm
ished third to Lagay. The time of
so 4-5 seconds was exceptionally fast.
Randolph Granger. the speed mer-
chant of Dartmouth, covered the
half-miIe in wonderful fashion at the
Plainfield meet and won the event.
Jack Graham, the Prudential ath-
lete captured third place in the 100
yard novice dash at this meet.
The feature of the games at Wat
sessing Park. under the auspices of
the First Ward Social Interest Club,
of East Orange, was the running of
Joe Myer, the Dartmouth half-miler.
Myer won the SS0-yard run with ease.
Eddie Garloek, of Bloomfield High
School, was third in this event.
George Messler, of this city, won the
two-mile event easily. Messler had
a handicap of 100 yards, and he in
creased his lead as the race went on.
Herman Meeteer was nosed out in
the 100-yard dash by Leonard Sioss,
who halls from East Orange High
School. S. e. Staines, formerly of
Academy, cleared feet Z
inches in the running high jump. but
no prizes were awarded owing to a
mistake in the handicaps. Staines
was granted a three-inch handicap,
and the other jumpers protested.

must be done to stop foul and Illegal
riding at the Velodrome. The idea
seems to be to get home first, no mat
ter how you do it. and Referee Ross
appears to think so. too The first
heat of the race was pretty to watch,
although the real contest occurred
during the first twelfth instead Of
the last twelfth of mile. 1t was
fairly ridden and the best man won.
In the second heat. though, Clark
pulled one of his tricks, and he was
allowed to get away with 1t. As a
result. Rutt deliberately perpetrated
the same trick in the third heat
Referee Ross stood mute and allowed
the attractions of the rules Clark
when he cut on the inside of Rutt
on the backstretch and rode on the
flat, should have been fined $50 for
his Illegal riding, and the heat should
have been ordered rerun. Then we
would not have seen Rutt do the
same thing in the third heat. If Ross
will only get up sufficient nerve TO
fine some of those petted stars he
will make life much easier for him
self. Tame the big fellows and
the little fellows win tame them
selves.
The victory of Leon Hourlier in the
Grand Prix of Paris yesterday was
according to the book. Hourlier is
easily the best man in France and
us what he can do. A report became
circulated at the Velodrome yester-
day that Poulain was the winner of
the Grand Prix, but those who knew
about the Evening Stars cable knew
that Hourlier had won.
Moving pictures of the races at the
Velodrome were taken on the Fourth
and they will be thrown on the screen
at the Strand Theatre during the
first three days of the week. The
films were made expressly for the
Strand. and were expected TO be put
on view at 10 O'Clock on the night of
the Fourth, but it was impossible, it
seems, to have them ready by that
time. However, George Turner, whom
everybody knows as the genial door
man of the old Waldmann's Opera
House. and who now greets you with
a smile at the Strand, assures me
that the pictures will be produced at
the Strand this afternoon and for the
first three days of the week. The
films will show Champion Frank L.

The remarkable drawing power of

The large amount of $4,000 was re-
ceived from the crowds that patro-
nized the home games. enabling the
club to earn a profit of $33SS5.
Believing that polo has advanced

British and American army officers.

After a month of preliminary rae

class yachts, Defiance. Resolute and
Vanitie, will enter this week on a
series Of trials off Newport, R. l., all
OF which will have a direct bearing
upon the ultimate selection of one of
them for the defense of the Ameri-

fourth Shamrock.
Every move of the yachts in the
racing henceforth will be closely
watched and noted by members Of
the committee on selection of the
New York Yacht Club, headed by W.
Butler Duncan.
Victory in each one of the contests
will be only one of the points which
the committee will consider. Man.

seamanship and the work of the
helmsman, all will be taken into ac-
count
The trio will race together tomor-

DAVIS CUP
MATCH TOMORROW
England and Belgium Will Meet
in Preliminary Games at
FOIkeStOne.
r. LINDLEY MURRAY LOSES

England and Belgium will meet TO-
morrow at Folkestone, England. in
the first of the preliminary tie
matches for the Davis International
challenge cup. England this year is
to be represented by Herbert Roper
Barrett, Theodore Michel Mayrogor-
dato. Captain Algernon F. r. Kings
cote and James Cecil Parke.
Belgium failed to send its nomina-
lions to this country. Robert d.
Wrenn says Belgium had probably
notified England and likely regarded
that as complying with the Davis cup
regulations. 1t is understood that
Paul de Borman, w. III. du Vivier and
A. G. Watson are to represent Bel
GUM. These players were beaten by
the Canadian team last year. "
Because of the trial tournaments for
the selection of the Davis cup teams.
several of the ranking players will be
prevented from competing in the ma
tional clay court championship at Gin
cinnati, O., this week, and in the Cen
trail New York State championship at
Utica. N. Y, next week 1t is pos
sible that the entry for the Longwood
tournament at Boston may also be
curtailed. As a result, the Davis cup
committee yesterday issued an am
nouncement stating that under the
cup regulations the United States in
ternational team must be named not
later than july %, twenty-one days
before the challenge round is played
on August 49, IA and ID. The an
Iouncement concludes:
1T is unfortunate that such a plan
has taken away one or two players
from other events, but the committee
feels that every club in the United
States will be willing to make a sacri-
flee in order that we may put in the
field the strongest team that this

The turkey weighed about ten pounds.
We took the turkey in the house and
got some hot water and cleaned it.
Mamma got dinner. When we had

After our company went home I
