country. will push bikes against each
other on Thursday night.

to have Lew Tender, Philadelphia 8

grind. Tender will come up from At

purpose of acting as starter and also to
watch the event.
Antunecci, Italian star motor PAGER,
who has been establishing big reputa-
ton on the other circular tracks, will
make his Philadelphia debut on Thurs

and the downtown park is invariably

of Governors of the Philadelphia Base.
ball Association. McClengagan is one
of the sQuarest men in sport, and the
members of the p. B. A. say It is due
largely to the Fleisher representative
that the organization is hourishing to-
day.
There are other A. A. officers who
help in a large degree. Harry Douell
has charge of the tickets, with his as
sistants, Hugh McGee and John Me-
Glinchy, and the fact that the Fleisher
grounds are always in such wonderful

Lefty" Nolan is hitting the ball at a
terrific pace. Johnny Scott is cloutins

to Reading. Walker is one of the best
shortstops, trihe weak with the stick,

In Rhode Island the strike was
marked by serious disorders, resulting
in some fatalities. Many mills were
shut down for long periods and others
were kept in partial operation. The
