GROH MUST YIELD TO THIS.
Charley Hickman Claims Honors
for Real Short" Hit.

New York. Oct 11.-Late in the
season in a game in Cincinnati,
Heine Groh batted what was pro-
claimed to be the shortest safety
since the game began. The ball
glanced of his bat, fell on the plate
and lay there. Bill Rariden, who
was catching, didn't see where the
ball went, and was frantically hunt
ing for it while Groh skipped to
first.
Charley Hickman Is credited with
the shortest two-bagger ever deliv-
cred, at Comiskey Park some years
ago. He hit one that struck just
beyond the edge of the plate, but
instead Of staying quiet, bounded
sharply back. The catcher tried to
grab it up and effect a putout, but
the ball grazed his arm and leaped
clear to the stand while Hickman
kept on running
Under the rules that was a fair
ball. for the catcher had struck 1t
while IL was still in fair ground.
Also. under the rules. IT was not an
error. for the catcher merely grazed
it and had no chance to hold it
exactly as II il had ben hit to short
stop. and just tipped the shOrtstop's
glove. Hence it was a fair hit, and.
as Hickman never stopped till he
got to second, II had to be counted
as a double.

.HAUGKTON IS
HANDED BOOST
Charley Brickley, Former
Harvard Star, Hands
Coach All Credit.

Charley Brickley, the former Har-
ward gridiron star, who is now an
ensign in the navy, was talking re-
Gently about the coaching Of Percy
Haughton. Among the many points
OF interest that Brickley brought out
concerning Haughton's methods was
this:
Whenever. Harvard played a strong
team that had a great backfield star
we always had two men to cover him
continually during the game. That is
how we stopped Toll Pendleton and
'Hobey' Baker. OF Princeton. That is
how we put a quietus on Harry Le-
gore, Of Yale.
These three men were great play
ers. l think that Baker was one OF
the best backs that ever stepped ON
to a gridiron. But I don't remember
him making a first down against Har-
ward Haughton's system Of having
two men playing him all the time
stopped Baker to a walk.
"Haughton's attention to detail was
the big factor in his and our success
Eddie Mahan and myself were given
most OF the publicity for Harvard S
success in football when We were at
Cambridge. but / am frank to say
that the great play OF the Harvard
Hnesmen, often overlooked, was "a
bigger factor than the public or most
critics realized"

KELLY
GREATHORSE
Famous Son of Dick Wells
Figures to Be Best Devel-
oped in This Country.

Billy Kelly has come to be the
wonder horse of the racing year.
There is no telling how good he
really is. but Eternal may provide
the necessary test II they meet in
the much-talked-of special race at
Laurel some time within the next
two or three weeks. Chris Fitzger-
aid, the one-time starter and than
whom there are few better judges of
horses, made the amazing statement
yesterday that Billy Kelly, in his
opinion, is just about the best horse
ever developed in this country. and
that he was not forgetting such
stars of the turf as Domino, the un-
beaten Colin. Sysonby and all the
rest This was a broad statement,
but Fitz would not qualify 1t. The
son Of Dick Wells-Glena has run
many brilliant races. but it is still
rather early to put him on such a
high pedestal with the greatest and
best
Glancing back over his record for
the year. Billy Kelly has won IL
races out of IA starts. carrying as
high as 1876 pounds. He began his
career in the Middle West. where he
won four out OF five races and lost
that one only because he was almost
knocked down and came out of it
lame. He then won four out of five
at Saratoga Springs. and since be-
ing shipped to Maryland has won
four in a row, two against older
horses.
There was an excuse, too. and a
good excuse. for his only defeat at
Saratoga. In the Albany Handicap.
under 1873 pounds. Simpson a negro
jockey. allowed him TO swing wide
at the head of the stretch. so that
Star Hampton. in receipt of IS pounds,
stole through on the rail and beat
him 20 the finish.
In his winning races at Saratoga
Billy Kelly never faltered. He took
up ll9 pounds in the Flash Stakes
and beat Lady Rosebud, Star Realm
Passing Shower and High Time,
