DE PALMA SETS NEW
 WORLD SPEED MARK

NEW YORK, June 14-Ralph de Palma, taking the lead in the thir- teenth mile of a 50-mile international automobile race at the Sheepshead Bay track today, broke all worlds records for 50 miles, winning by a margin of a third of a lap in 26 minutes 23 2-1O seconds.
 The previous record for the distance was 26 minutes 57 3-10 seconds, made by Louis Chevrolet over the same track September p, 1917. De Palma crossed the finish line two-thirds of a mile ahead of Dave Lewis and Joe Boyer, who finished second and third, only a few feet apart.
 At 30 miles, De Palma's time was 15 minutes 5S 6-10 seconds, wiping out the old worlds time of 16 minutes 20 3-5 seconds, made by Mulford in another race scarcely an hour previously. His time for 40 miles, 21: 39 40, and his average speed for the 50 miles was 1145 miles an hour.
 De Palma's time for the intermediate distances will be announced officially next week.

CGpMt SGyS:--

In 1902, at Hartford, Connecticut, Young Corbett knocked out Terry Mo Govern in the second round of a chal- lenge match for the championship. The fight was promptly called a fake by sporting writers and those who saw the mill. As a result, McGovern re- fused to relinquish the title and a new championship match was arranged in San Francisco, the year following. In that event, in 1903, Young Corbett again knocked McGovern out in the fourteenth round of d scheduled 20 round go.
 This information came to me yes terday from Manager Dixon of the Mesa baseball team. Dixon states that his brother witnessed the fight and when he returned home told young Dixon all the facts concerning it. Dixon says he remembers the facts distinctly. l trust this will settle the argument that has been sputtering around the vicinity of Eddie Doyle's smoke empo- rum for the last few days. It may also settle more than an argument.
 Here is a piece of news that is news. Mesa is soon to have the best equipped baseball park in the state. Mesa ad- mits it and doesn't feel as though she should be called upon to prove it.
 The city council has granted to the ball team a 20-acre plot of ground, with full permission to go ahead and do with it as they please. The ball men are already clearing the ground, hav- ing begun the valiant task of removing about go trees and roots. Following this, the ground will be prepared and rolled down to ball playing consistency.
 Nor is that all. Funds are needed for a grandstand and the merchants of Mesa have told the ball players to go ahead and build their grandstand and call upon them for the necessary funds and material.
 This is not alone good news, but it shows up the dilatory tactics and dis interest of d lot of other people that we could name. It would be interesting, I am sure, to print a long list of the small country towns in Maricopa county and the state, where the citi- zen interest has stood valiantly behind the ball players and fans and given them a place to play their favorite sport.
 l haven't any idea what is being planned, if anything is being planned, looking toward a ball ground in this city this season. We have not had a ball game since the Tigers met Mesa two weeks ago. There is no game scheduled for today. There is not a single game in prospect. Not a game lined up for any euture day. As things look now, Phoenix will be without 8 ball ground, without a ball game, and maybe without a ball team. so far as any local interest in maintaining them is concerned.
 The same sort of disinterest is shown in the matter of a boxer to meet Mike Golindo here July f. There has been neither a reply, an inquiry nor a sug- gestion regarding such a match. have notified John Meek, manager for Co., lindO, that the only chance for him tc stage his hero here on Independence day, is to bring over his own boxers and stage his own carnival.
