Two Worlds Records
on Kalamazoo Track

Kalamazoo, Mich, Aug. 13.-Two
worlds records were broken yesterday
by Peter Volo driven by Tom Muir
ply. in winning the $4,000 horseman
and Spirit of the Times futurity for
three-year-old trotters.
His times of 2.O4%, 2O5&, and
2.06A were the three fastest heats
ever trotted by a stallion, the former
record being 2.07 y, 2.0S and 2.O2,
made in 1910 by the Harvester. The
heats were also the three fastest by a
three-year- trotter, the honor hav-
ing previously been held by Lucille
Spier, who went them in 2.07%, 2.O71h
and 2.11 at Grand Rapids last week.
What is said to be best field of colts
ever together in a three-year-old trot
competed in the event. Although Pet
er Nolo was the class of the bunch
his records were forced by Lee Ak
worthy, who trotted great race
throughout.
Only second important was the race
for the $4,000 Paper Mills purse for
2.11 trotters won by Lassie MCGregor,
who took the second, third and fourth
nheats. Sienna won the first heat
This was Pop" Geers' day and the
veteran driver delighted the crowd by
driving home the winner in two events.
He captured the Horseman and Spirit
of the Times futurity for two-year-old
troters, with Sparkle Watts and drove
Napoleon direct to victory in the
$4,000 American Hotel stake for 2.15

hood" Glatts ordered Chabek to the
bench.
Harrisburg pried open the scoring

There was no further scoring until

Own Story to Teuton
Writers

In police court yesterday afternoon
Robert Mccormick was fined three
dollars for disorderly conduct at Island
Park, Tuesday afternoon. Attaches
at Island ark testified that McCor-
mick was one of the peace disturbers
on Monday afternoon.
In imposing the fine Mayor John X.

to apologize. His penitence got him
off with the small fine.
Gathering Evidence
officials are busy gathering evidence
others who were mixed up in the riots
Monday and Tuesday afternoon and
further arrests are anticipated. 1t is
not yet certain whether warrant will
be sent to Allentown for Stutz, wanted
for assault and battery on Michael
Minnaugh the local groundkeeper
officials of the Pennsylvania Exhibit
ion company have sent a complaint
in regard to Stutz's action to president
George Graham and his action is
awaited. The warrant in all proba-
bility will be served on Stutz, should
he come to Harrisburg with the Teu-
tons on the next trip.
According to the Allentown Chro-
nicle News, Johnny Castle and his
players were given raw treatment.
Manager Castle told a garbled story
| 10 the Allentown hackers, in an effort
to shield Stutz. He blames Harrisburg
Sporting writer's for sending out eX-
aggerated reports. The news forgets
to say that Stutz realized he was in the
wrong or he wouldn't have run away
after the incident.
This is what the Allentown Chro-
nicle News says; after having been
told a patched up story by manager
Johnny Castle.
Castles Feelings Hurt
The local Tri-State club arrived in
town last night after a stormy two
day session at Harrisburg. Johnny
Castle and his boys were greatly in
censed at the treatment handed out
to them by the fans of the capital and
the management of the senators. Man
ager Castle strongly asserts that some
of the published reports emanating
from Harrisburg were exaggerated
and very misleading.

couldn't see the joke however, and
after making two passes at the Kid,
Stutz planted the groundkeeper and
a general turmoil ensued, mostly boys.
Stutz and the other local players re-
turned to their hotel unmolested.
Manager Castle will send his side
of the affair to President Graham.
Some of the reports sent out by over
jealous Harrisburg writers were highly
colored, to say the least. President
Graham will make a thorough inves-
