STAR STRINGS
FOR DERBIEs
Two English Classics Are
Attracting Most Prom
inent Thoroughbreds.

Make sure that the horse you
fancy is engaged at EPSON, IL that
Is the venu you count upon" This
Is the advice which is given by Au-
CUR. in Sporting Life of London. in
re the peculiar state of turf affairs
which obtains just now in England
because of the fact that there are
in existence two set of Derby en-
tries-one for EPSON. which closed
in July. 1917, and the other for New
market, which closed in September.
II develops that~this is the first
occasion on which the stewards of
the Jockey Club, in opening the sub
scription list to the New Derby. have
done SO without cancelling that at
EPSON. and as the above authority
suggests ''in so doing they acted
with an admirable sense of pro-
phecy."
1t was therefore that the above
warning was given to those who are
beginning to wager on next years
Derby, inasmuch as a friend of his
had recently backed eight horses in
the Derby. 1t happens that al
though all are engaged in the New
market edition. only four are sched-
uled to take part in the race to be
decided at EPSON.
Since 1915 inclusive this blue rib
bon event of the turf world has been
run at Newmarket under the war
time title of New Derby, the last of
the EPSON classics having been won
by the late Herman B. Duryea's Dur
bar II. which the American sports
man bred in France. and proved TO
be one of the very few American
owned horses which have won the
test.
In England sentiment and tradition
alike demand a return to the famous
Surrey track, the event dating back
to 1850, with 1881 marking the first
successful essay of an American for
winning honors when Pierre Loril-
lard's Iroquois earned brackets
The use of the EPSON track at the
famous Downs prior to the time OF
| the previously announced running of
| the Derby in 1915 precluded any chance
of the course being used for the
/ race. which was transferred to New
market, where ii has since been run.
There are still many wounded SOL
| diers in the EPSON racecourse hos
pital, and, as was the case in 1915
| when there was a great outcry by
| faddists and others because of their
proximity to such great sporting
| event it is anticipated that a similar
wall will be heard Directly the propo-
sition is made to hold the race at
EPSON next year. 1t had been sug-
| gested that were a vote put to those
in the hospital there Is little doubt
! that it would be solidly in favor OF
| holding the race at EPSON.

American League Masnates
Support Hermann as
Chairman Of National
Commission; Hold Long
Session.

Chicago. Dec. l2.-Ban John
son won another battle tonight
when he whipped his American
League magnates into line and In
dueed them to support Garry Herr
mann as chairman of the national
commission. Although the moguls
were still In session at press time
and no official report was allowed
to ease its way through the barred
doors, it was said that Charley
Comiskey, the White Sox owner.
and Handsome Harry" Frazee, of
the other colored Sox, put up a
strenuous fight.
They were set against the Ameri-
can League vote being cast for
Hermann. Just how Ban man
aged to win these two gentlemen
over to the cause of Garry is not
known. But he did it.
Before entering the sacred sanctum
Coniskey declared that he was going
TO battle to a bitter end against Herr
mann Frazee was known to be just
as determined also. So you have to
hand 1t to Ban. The old boy still
packs a knockout punch
Word was sent to the waiting
scribes that the magnates voted in
favor of a 14O-game schedule. The
season will open May 1 and close Sep
tember o.
The following were elected board of
directors for the coming year: Jacob
Rupert New York; Harry Frazee.
Boston; James Dunn, Cleveland; and
Charles Comiskey. Chicago.
The magnates decided upon a twen-
ty-one player limit. Each club must
reduce to this figure fifteen days af-
ter the opening of the season. Play
ers in the service are to be allowed
thirty additional days when the man.
ayers get out the pruning knife.
The fact that the American League
has decided to stand loyalty behind
Hermann. while the National League
is known to have instructed its new
president. Johnny Heydler. to vote
against garruIous Garry. isn't going
to make matters any too pleasant be-
tween the two major organizations.
However, the American League mag
mates are said to be in favor of meet
ing a committee from the old league
in hopes OF smoothing the rough spots
that exist. II was reported tonight
that johnson would appoint such a
committee before the meeting ad.
iourns.
The report that a Cleveland syndi-
cate would purchase the Red Sox was
most vigorously deEied by Frazee
who declared that he never had re.
ceived an offer from these parties.

LEONARD PULLS
BIG BURLETTA
Lightweight Champ Puz-
zles Soldier Bart6eld in
Odds-on Match for Elks.

Brooklyn. Dec. 12.-Benny Leonard
and Soldier Bartfield staged an i'm
promptu boxing burlesque at the car
rival given by the Brooklyn Elks at
their clubhouse last night that would
make a big hit anywhere. The car
nival was given by the Army and
Navy Service Committee TO raise
funds for members In the service.
Leonard was refereeing an exhibi-
ton bout between Bartfeld and Jack
London and the light-weight champion
started kidding the soldier after the
latter had called Benny wise guy
As the bout progressed. Bartheld's
temperature rose like the mercury In
a dollhouse, and at the conclusion of
the second round the soldier chal-
lenged Leonard to put 'em on"
Benny didn't hesitate moment. He
was in his uniform of army instruc-
tor. but simply doused his coat. donned
the gloves and went at 1t. Bartfeld,

tried to use his excess avoirdupois
In wearing down the champion, but he
only succeeded in proving that Benny
was wise guy" after all. Benny
held the Brooklyn boy of by the SIM
pie process of jabbing. and had the
soldier growing hotter and hotter.
Between rounds Benny hit on a
novel method of cooling of his oppo-
nent. AS he came from his corner
for the second round the champion
took a huge mouthful of water, and
as Bartfield jumped in to bounce a
few punches of Benjamin's nose. the
said Ben let go a stream of water that
almost drowned the pugnacious sol
dier. II is well known that Bartfield
is not over fond of water in any form
and he spluttered a few remarks that
made the atmosphere fairly sizzle. Be-
fore he could recover. his seconds
threw the sponge into the ring. where
upon Bartfeld tried to make it bat
tie royal. Finding nobody in the ring.
the soldier challenged everybody in
the world to finish fight, Leonard
and Willard preferred. He was finally
coaxed to the side lines.

MIDGETS LAND IN
HARD FOUGHT GAME

The Sacred Heart School juniors
from Mt. Washington, Nd. journeyed
here yesterday and battled the Con-
zaga High School Midgets in the North
Capitol Street gym. The Blue and
Gray youngsters landed one of the
hardest fought battles that has ever
been witnessed on the l street floor
by a count of 13 to 10.
The first half ended with the score
5, to in favor of the visitors but
the locals came to life in the final
two sessions and registered four field
goals along with one free toss That
annexed the contest. The feature of
the game was the all-around work OF
