DOOM AND M'GRAW
REACH AGREEMENT
Contract Drawn Up and Deal
Expected TO Go Through
Today.

Charles cRed'O Doom, recently de-
posed as manager of the Phillies, will
by tonight be the property Of the
New York Giants, according to re-
ports that are generally credited in
baseball circles. Manager McGraw,
of the Giants, admitted that he is
seeking Doom, and that in all prob
ability a trade would be arranged to-
day by which the scrappy catcher
will wear New York uniform next
season. Doom and McGraw have
agreed on terms.
Just who will be included IN the
deal for Doom is not known The
name of Sherwood Magee, Philly out>
fielder has been mentioned in the
proposed trade. He and Doom, a re-
port has it, are to be exchanged for
Outfielder Bob Beseher, Eddie
Grant and "Rube" Marquard.

The New York National League
Club will make no reply to the letter
from Robert Ward, president of the
/ Brooklyn Federals. in which Ward
! promises to return Rube Marquard
to the New York Club. provided the
Giants can show him they have a
legal contract with Marquard The
New York Club takes the stand that
Marquard could not be returned to
them, as he never ceased to be under
contract to the club. Neither Mar
guard nor any of his family has ever
advised us that he intended to break
his contract with the New York
Club" said Secretary Foster.
by answering the letter we might
injure our case and partly admit the
player may be returned. We expect
Marquard 10 report at our training
camp in Marlin, and if he does not
there win be time for us to take ac-
ton. In the meantime Marquard is
under contract to us, so it would be
impossible for anyone to return him

Interest in baseball circles centres
about the prolonged visit of President
Ban Johnson, of the American
League, who announces that he will
be in New York for some time yet,
probably until the deal for the sale of
the local American League club is
definitely settled. Announcement of
the sale of the Yankees TO Colonel
Jacob Rupert, jr., is expected within
a few days, and already it is rumored
that a practical baseball man viii be
made president of the club. In this

BASKETBALL HERO
South Orange Forward Scored
10 Points in Victory Over
Randolph Academy.

Tom F'itzsimmons, of the South Or
ange High School team, was the hero
of a, game of basketball, in which the
South Orange quintet defeated the
Randolph Academy five at Morris
town last night by score of 80 to 90.
1t was mainly due to the efforts of
Fitzsimmons that the South Orange
team was enabled to win out in the
second period. after trailing in the
wake of q 81 to score at the end OF
the first half. In the opening session
Fitzsimmons was unable to gather a
point. but he accounted for 16 toward
the latter part of the contest. In the
last minute of play he scored two free
throws, which tied and eventually
won the game. Hebard, formerly of

The bike fans will have another
chance to enjoy their favorite sport
up at the First Regiment Armory to-

racing tonight to whet their appetites
for the six-day race which Is to fol-
low next week. Nearly all of the big

races. The track will be completed
late this afternoon, and IL is figured
to give the riders q chance to try
out the little saucer between 3 and 4
o'clock.
Riders VIII Need Practice.
AS the track in the armory is even
smaller than the Garden track, the
riders will need some practice on 1t
to master the sharp, highly-banked
turns, and for that reason the car
penters will be called off for an hour
to give the riders a chance to try
out the track. All but three feet of
the surface was put on the track yes
