O'Grady and Van Ryan Expected

by his manager, Mike McNulty.

Mike is already the champion of

But Mike is always a welcome

Nulty holds the title. Mike is just
as gracious as his opponent and
magnanimously proclaims Jack the
best dancer since the days of Yer

tween times he is looking after the

ResOlute and Shamrock

ed the cup to the surviving donor,
George L. Schuyler, who amended
the deed of gift by providing that
challenging yachts should proceed
to the port of contest on their own
bottoms, and also that no vessel
could race again until two years
had elapsed. In 1882 the club re-
yised its system Of measurement,
which determined the time allow
ance to be given or received. In
1891 the rule was again changed,
and the present rule was put in
force in 1908.
In the meantime several chal-
lengers had been defeated by
American defenders. In 1885 Sir
Richard Sutton Of the Royal Yacht
Squadron challenged with the cut
ter Genesta. Two races were sail
ed. in both Of which the challenger
was defeated by the American sloop
Puritan. owned by ]. NJ. Forbes.
The next year Lieutenant Hem Of
the Royal Northern Yacht club,
challenged with the cutter Galatea
and was defeated in two races by
the American sloop Mayflower,
owned by. General C. J. Paine. In
1887 James Bell came over with
the cutter Thistle. The sloop Vol
unteer. owned by General Paine,
had little difficulty in defeating the
Thistle in the two races.
Old Vigilant Wins.
In 1889 Lord Dunraven chal-
lenged, but the Royal Yacht squad
ron declined to approve his chal-
lenge on the ground that the new
deed of gift was illegal and not in
the interest of good sport. In 1898
Dunraven came over with the cut
ter Valkyrie II, and was defeated
in three races by the American
sloop Vigilant, owned by a syndi-
cate headed by C. 0. Iselin. In
1895 Dunraven returned with the
cutter valkyrie III. The sloop De-
fender was built by the Iselin syn
dictate to defend the trophy. In
the second contest Valkyrie III,
was disqualified and withdrew.
In 1899 Sir Thomas Upton
brought over his first challenger,
Shamrock I. To meet her the Ise-
lin syndicate built the sloop Column
bia, which won the first race of the
series by 10 minutes and sec
onds. In the next race the Sham
rock was disabled and the defend
er had a sailover. The third race
was won by Columbia in 6 minutes
and "a seconds.
For the next race, in 1901, Sir
! Thomas Upton built the Shamrock
II, while the New York Yacht club
again relied upon the Columbia to
defend the cup. The Columbia
won the first and third Of the SER
les. Shamrock II finished first in
the second contest. out lost the race
ON time allowance.
The last series was in 1903, when
Sir Thomas brought over Sham
rock III to sail against the Reli-
ance. The races were sailed in
August and Reliance captured all

LAST Is HOME GAMES pROpOS
TO MAKE 3-EYE BALL SUCCESS


Despite q falling on In attsnd-
ance at Douglas Park. totaling
|, 41s less than the figures Of 13,t9f
listed for May, the opening month
the Rock Island Fans associa4ions
owners Of the Rock Island club Of
the Three-Eye league. are standing
with their chins well above waker
In point of expense. Still. there ID
urgent need of ready financial a.
sistance by all the fans II the sea-
son Is to be closed q success.
Rock Island has proved one OF
the best Saturday and Sunday game
towns, week end attendance being
we'll up In the standing. Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday attend-e
ance 10 what has been holding tho
local club back in receipts.
Reason for Fail on.
This may be explained in various
ways. but the chief deterrent has
been that Saturday and Sunday.
being weekly holidays, more work
ingmen have flocked to the games:
whereas. during the week. they
would, but cannot leave their work
to see the home club battle With
the visitors.
Rock Island stands next to the
bottom Of the attendance standing
in q list compiled by President AL
Tearney, with the Evansville fg-
ures unavailable. Moline IS last "a
the running, 81 behind the locals.
Rockford In Lead.
Rockford has been the fighting
team Of the league, although
Bloomington now is setting the
pace, with Evansville treading
along closely behind and Peoria
in third. These are all larger cities
than Rock Island and Moline: con-
seQuently they draw from q larger
field. Then, too, it must be cone
sidered that Rock Island and Mo-
line have Jared poorly in the dis
tribution of the breaks and have
all the earmarks Of consistent los-i
ers. However, the attendance in
both cities have exceeded all ex-
pectations, as may be discerned
from the above table, with only
1856 paid admissions between the
best and poorest patronized clubs.
Club Not In Need, But
The Rock Island club is far from
the financial reef. being now well
over and above a possible emery
ency; and the additional asset OF
an even $1,000 yet to be derived
from the sale Of advertising space
on the outfield fences.
Still, the management wants to
close the season on as firm q basis
as any other contender: and hero
is the scheme proposed today BY
President Mueller: 8
! It is planned within a week to
issue ticket books for the last Is
home games. The books will ne
sold at IS each, which amounts to
getting $3.50 worth Of baseball for
flyer. The books will be ready
by the time the team returns from
the road. The management hopes
to sell at least 400 Of these ticket
books; and the more they sell, the
better for baseball here next sea-
son.
Let's All Be There.
The tickets will be for the last
lis home games, which will be play
ed in Rock Island next month. The
club will close on the road Sept. 8.
Fans, be ready to get your ticket

New York, July 14.-Her trim
green sides stained dingy color
with the slime and dirt picked up
in the oily waters Of Sandy Hook,
the Shamrock w. Sir Thomas Lip
toms challenger for Americas cup,
went back into drydock today to be
cleaned instead Of trying her new
sails in a final trial spin before the
first race tomorrow. - Resolute. the
defender, after receiving q four
four bath yesterday from a squad
Of scrapers In drydock, was moored
near the course ready to give her
new suit of sails stretch il the
weather permitted.
On account of the unfavorable
weather encountered and the last
minute trouble experienced with
the oily waters Of the bay. the two
sloops will go into the first race
with less preparation than any
that have sailed for the coveted
trophy since 1851, when America
became the queen of the seas.
First Race at IL.
The schedule for the first race
tomorrow is completed.
The first race will be started at
IL O'Clock eastern standard time,
weather conditions permitting.
The second race Is scheduled for
Saturday, the third for Tuesday
and then on alternate days until
one Of the sloops has won three
races.
The measurements Of the two
yachts and the time handicap
which Shamrock w must allow
Resolute probably will not be made
known until tomorrow.
History Of Cup Race.
The American cup is trophy
that cost $500, and was offered by
the Royal Yacht Squadron In 1881
for race around the Isle Of
Wight. Foreign boats were invited
to compete, and the America, own
ed by Commodore Stevens and other
members OF the New York Yacht
club, was entered. There was no
time allowance for tonnage, and
the America won a very creditable
race, since she was by no means
the largest Of the competitors.
The trophy thereupon became the
property of Commodore Stevens,
who In 1857 decided the cup to the
New York Yacht club, to be held as
. perpetual challenge trophy for
international races between vessels
OF not less than 30 nor more than
800 tons. The first challenge came
in 1870 from James Ashbury. who
raced his yacht Cambria against
the whole feet Of the New York
Yacht club, and an American yacht
named MsgIs was the winner. In
1871 Mr.. Ashbury returned to the
attack, End on this occasion It was
agreed that there should be a SIN
gle defender. This was the yacht
Columbia, owned by Franklin Os-
coed. The Columbia defended the
cup until she lost through an acci-
dent. after which the New York
Yacht club substituted the Sappho
owned by w. P. Douglas. The cup
remained in the United States, but
| the race ended in . protest.
Canadians De:aafed.
In 1876 vice Commodore Clifford
backed by the Royal Canadian
Yacht club, challenged with the
schooner Countess of Deherin

were won BY the American defend,
