The first race up camelback noun
tain Sunday drew large crowd from
Phoenix and other points of the vai-
ley. The racers attempted to climb
the mountain on the north side and 9
few were successful in getting half
way up but none reached the top.
Then a race was proposed to Squaw
Peak from the head of Camelback,
and the racers started off at the shot
OF the gun through tha rocks and
cactus where there was no sign OF
trail. 1t was a cross country race
Of the roughest kind imaginable and
most OF the racers came to grief be-
fore they had gone a quarter or
mile. One racer had the front wheel
twisted from his machine and his
foot injured and his leg full OF cac-
tus thorns. Several riders had very
hard falls IN which they damaged
their machines and collected lot OF
cactus thorns with their legs. Only
one rider succeeded in keeping on
his machine. The events OF the day
demonstrated that such race course
is only suitable for aeroplanes, ana
then the starting and landing places
would be dangerous.
The local baseball team suffered it's
first defeat Of the season in tightly
nlayed game at Glendale Sunday.
The Greys trimmed them to the tune
of 10 to 4, but the score does not
indicate the brand of baseball the
local boys played. Several OF their
star PLAYERS were out Of the game
ana that, no doubt, was the cause
Of their defeat. Goodwin, their third
baseman and heavy hitter. was in.
T1red in a game at Tempe normal
