BALL KNOCKS OUT TWO
Players at Hammonton Figure IN
Unusual Accident

One Of the most unusual acct
dents in the baseball history OF
South Jersey marred the final game
of a series between the Harmon
ton Country Club team and the
Hammonton All-Stars. an aggrega-
ton of city league players.
In the third inning a swift pitch
ed ball struck Leslie Montgomery,
former International League star,
on the side of the head, knocking
him unconscious in the batter's box.
The ball carooned off Montgomery's
head. striking the next batter up,

announcement made by the team

that Steinader will start in the
box for the locals.
While nominally the winners of
this series will be champions of
this section of the state, there are
several teams in other communities
which are eager to dispute the
claim. Egg Harbor, Salem and
Millville, all with strong teams,
have sent challenges to the win
ner of the Series, and it is possible
that games or series of games
will be arranged with at least one
of these tehms to make the Champ

Stock CAR
RACES AT A!IlATL
Remaylxable Program Planned
For Labor Day
I Afternoon

A remarkable day of stock car
racing is planned for the Atlantic
City Speedway on Labor Day. In
stead of the tiny racing machines
sent hurting over the mile and a
half of boards, at speeds up to 140
miles an hour, the Labor Day pro
gram will mark a return to the
original idea of the sport-racing
the car of the street.
Lack of competition, due to the
failure of the little racers to hold
UP under the strain of the pace
they set, is given as the main
reason for the decision of the
speedway to definitely abandon
the accepted order of racing.
Coupled with that is the belief
, that the average racing fan would
rather see the car he knows and is
/, intel ested in handled by an expert
and in competition with others of
! its class. A third reason is to
eliminate the enormous expense en-
tailed by the present order of
speedway racing with its big purses
and guarantees, and thus bring
racing down to the class of the
popular-priced sports with grand.
stand seats at a dollar each.
All these radical changes, with
others to follow, are the result of
the opening race meet this spring
when stock car event was staged
in conjunction with 20O-mile
special speedway event.
AS result of the popular ap-
proval, the Labor Day program will
be given over entirely to the stock
cars, which have become faster
than the racing cars of ten years
back and are fast enough when
handled by expert drivers, to take
advantage of the opportunity for
speed.
The program provides $50 miles
of racing, starting at 100 p. m. and
with starting field representing
the American stock car industry.
1t is planned to make this a
complete test, under racing con
ditions. of the cars manufactured
in this country, and for that rea-
son all European machines have
been barred.
The contest board of the
American Automobile Association
will have charge, and all entries
must meet the requirements fol
stock car classification with the
kichnicaI experts passing upon
them as a guarantee that nothing
will be done to the engine or car
to take it out of the stock and in
to the special or racing class.
A total of $4,000 in cash prizes
and splendid trophies will be
awarded the winning drivers and
cars.

France, riding on the crest in
the tennis world, threatening in
golf, plans as her next move a
victory in the Olympic games. This
victory may not come in 1928.
France has not the material to
match America, Finland and Ger
many at this short notice. But
France is going into the next
games with that end in view-add-
ing the track and field laurels to
her international honors.
Her participation in the games
at Amsterdam was made possible
recently when M. Coty stepped into
the breach and produced 100000
francs to finance preparations for
the games. The French government
had just voted down a similar ap-
preparation on the plea of straigh-
tened financial conditions.
France has the determination to
produce a winning Olympic team.
Year after year, as America con-
tinued to rule the tennis world with
ridiculous rase the French net
enthusiasts plugged away. Year by
year Cochet, Borotra, La Coste and
Brugnon came forward bit more
until last year-as the sporting
world knows-they won the honors
in the u. S. national tourney and
forced the. American defenders to
fight with their backs to the wall
to hold the coveted Davis trophy
They followed this mQrs2 recent
ly with a sweeping victory a
Wimbledon.
France saSlready has some femin
Inc .H1et stars who will demand
sooner or later the place in the
sun held by Suzanne Lcnglen ant
Helen Wills.
In golf, France has long been q
factor, and in Mile. Simone de IL
Chaume now has feminine stal
who will be reckoned within yeal
or two.
France produced Georges Car
pentier and Eugene Criqui ant
other good boxers and is now
seeking younger stars to replace
them.
And now come the Olympics.
The United States led the other
nations in 1924 by wide margin
The points scored by Uncle Sans
representatives totaled 81. France
took second place with Ga and
Finland ranked third with A IA
thanks to the running of Nurmi e.
al.
The French entrants won frs
in rifle shooting; with the foils
and the opee "a type of sword), a
water polo and cycling. Second
third and fourth places in these
and other events brought up the
total.
The French now have theil
hearts set, however, on developing
sprinters and field athletes t.
compete with the American contin
gent, Finland, England and Ger
many.
There is a general feeling thai
the French government erred il
refusing to back the Olympic team
at a time when Frances athletic
star Is in the ascendancy.
