Baltimore" he said, lis now ready
for big league baseball. The sentiment
concerning this city has changed with
in the last several months among the
big leaguers. and the common opinion
is that Baltimore would support a
major league team
Garry then was asked how Baltimore
could 20 about securing the big league
franchise and he answered that il was
entirely up to the Baltimoreans- How
ever. il might have been hint when

this city.
Washington Not Drawing Well.
Washington" he continued. lis not
drawing very Well The fans in that
city are not going to the ball park as
they should and the owners are losing
money Baltimore's only chance, as /
see ii, is to secure a franchise IN the
American league.
i do not think this city has chance
to get into the National league. Balti-
mores location must be taken into con-
sideration in her fight for big league
baseball.
There was considerable talk going
about the country some time ago that
Baltimore eventually would secure the
St Louis franchise, but you can tell
local fans that they need not entertain
any hopes for that franchise. That
would place five teams in the east.

union will offer at least four of the
greatest contests in the history Of the
cinderpath sport The championships
are to be held in the great new stadium
at weequahic park, Newark. on August
26, as one Of the chief features in the
celebration of the 250th anniversary of
the founding Of the New Jersey me-
tropoEs.
The foremost athletes OF the nation
will assemble for the classic. with high
class performances in view liz svs=T
event. bus four Of the contests bid fair
to outclass the others They are the
two hurdle races and the middle dis
lance runs at 440 and $50 yards. In each
of these there will be a field OF men
able to give the worlds record a good
battle and in at least two of the four
the odds are in favor of new marks
Perhaps the most remarkable Of the
four tests, and certainly the greatest
hurdle race in history, will be the 120
yard scramble over the high obstacles.
In II will be four men who have eX-
celled the famous old record Of Alvin

ley, alumnus of the University of
Southern California and winner of the
Olympic championship at Stockholm in
1912; Earl Thompson, Kelly's successor
at L. S c.; Fred Murray. of Stanford
university. and Bon Simpson, of the
University of Missouri.
Simpson is the new worlds record
holder. having done IA 5-5 seconds on
two occasions, and Il As several other
times. Thompson has made Il As sec
onds twice Kelly and Murray have
marks of Is seconds, repeated time and
again Simpson is looked upon gen
orally as the probable winner of the
struggle, but Thompson. the youngest
proved so rapidly during the last year
that further advances by him would not
be regarded as unlikely.
Jack Eller. Of the Irish American A
c. of New york. and Joe Loomis. of
Chicago A. A. are others who will COM
pete in this wonderful race Both are
former national champions but they
seem to be outclassed by the late crop
of western youngsters.
