Champions of every variety, speaking half a dozen different languages, and in the world’s fastest cars, will place on exhibition a galaxy of speed stunts that should hold a thrill for old and young. ‘•Drivers' day" at the Speedway promises to be an event that will long be remembered. At the meeting of the lap prize fund committee held yesterday noon, reports showed that twenty more citizens had joined in the movement to raise the $20,000 lap prize fund from which SIOO prizes are paid to the drivers leading at each lap of the 500-mile race.

National Magnates Would Let Hurlers Use Rasin at Times NEW YORK. May 19.—With one exception. routine matters were taken up Thursday when the National League magnates met. A suggestion was made that Heydler take up with the American League the question of cutting down the prevalent wildness of pitchers. The scheme Is to furnish each umpire with a small bag of powdered rosin. Should the plan be adopted this would be given to a pitcher whenever his hands became moist or the ball too slippery to be handled. The theory is that a aitcher could rub the rosin on his hands and not on the ball. President William Yeeck of the Cubs voiced a complaint with Heydler. against umpires who permit pitchers to soil a new ball. This was done in a game at Boston and Manager Evers complained to Umpire Moran, but the only satisfaction he got was a SSO fine for alleged umpire baiting.

Wherein Mr. John Evers Refused to Be Ponzied by Tricky Ground Keep

Recently when the Chicago Cubs were playing an exhibition game at Newcastle, Fa., and the local Knights of Columbus were busy giving ‘‘Jawn” Evers his nineteenth watch charm, a mysterious figure clad in a slate colored suit and wearing a bay derby hat circled around the outskirts of the crowd. Once Johnny looked at him for a moment and the gent crooked his finger at him and remarked “Pst!” The presentation went on, the crowd at home plate finally dispersed and the unidentified demon strolled into the Cubs’ dugout. ‘■Mr. Evers,” he whispered. * I am the ground keeper. This is important. When I go out of here follow me. It’s good! Don't fail me!” Uncertain whether the quick worker was a loon or a bootlegger, Johnny thought a few seconds and then got up and went after him, curious. The man opened a door and went under the grandstand and when Johnny appeared at the door he again remarked “Pst.” John entered. . * HIS CHANCE IX LIFETIME. “Mr. Evers," said the “pster,” ‘‘this is a chance of a lifetime. I’m the ground keeper here and I’ve heard what a flue man you are always. You can do me the world of good and I know you won t fail me.” , _ . . , •What is it?” asked John, voicing a thought that had been with him since the first “Pst” "Hero’s ten dollars,” said the ground keeper. "You give this to the announcer and at the end of any inning have him call me to the plate and announce that the Cubs gave me this ten dollars for being the best ground kec- er on etrth. For heaven’s sake, Mr. Ev .s. don i. fau me. Don’t sav no, willya!” John took the ten and at the c_d ox the third inning gave it to the announcer and explained it was for the best ground keeper on earth. In the meantime the ground keeper had been strutting arourd in front of the grandstand with a large cigar, looking like the lessee of the earth. When the announcer tried to get him the ground keeper looked amazed, pointed to himself, appeared completely nonplussed and finally walked o-er to the plate for the presentation. The announcement was made and his own $lO duly presented to him. He bowed low and seamed genuinely gratefuL There was cons.derable applause. Johnny Evers, seated in the pit, suddenly heard a familiar sound at the end ‘of the fifth inning. “Pst.,” said C voice. __ , It was the ground keeper at the end of the pit. He beckoned esc. pleaded with his wily eyes for John to approach. John with a long sigh strolled over to the post. WHERE THE TRICK FAILED. “Mr. Evers,” he said, “it was a ten I gave you, sir. It was $10.” “Well?” asked John, “what of it?” The man held out a $1 bill. “This is what he gave me,” he wheezed. John looked right at him. "Say.” he said, "S-A-Y, ground keeper.” The greatest ground keeper fumbled in his clothes and brought out a ten. “My gracious,” he said, "there it is. It's my mistake, M ’. Evers, ray mistake. Now isn't that funny?” “A scream, ground keeper, a scream,” said John, “and now will you do me a favor?” "I will do anything in my power, Mr. Evers, anything.” “All right, don’t ‘Pst* me again.” begged John.

The Notre baseballers hung it on the Michigan Aggies, 7 to 4, at East Lansing yesterday. Kuhn of the Aggies was touched for ten wallops, while Falvey of Notre Dame was “right,” and held the Aggies to four blows. Michigan hopped off to an early lead, getting two runs in the initial frame, but the Irijh kept right after them, went into the ’ead in the fourth when a rally netted three runs, and after that had little trouble staying out in front. Weak pitching and ragged fielding made it easy for the Purdue Boilermakers to thump the De Pauw Tigers, Id to 6, .r. a seven inning game at Greencsstle Bills and Davis worked in the box for De Pauw, and both were hit hard. Eight errors were chalked up against the De Pauw club. RICHMOND, *nd., May 20.—The Earlham track squad is in the very best of condition for the I. C. A.

The hatching and rearing of black bass by the method known a t < pond culture, which Is in operation at the Riverside hatchery, is the oqly practical method known for the propagation of this fish. It was originated by Dwight Lydell, of the Michigan fish commission. By this method the hatching is done by the adult fish ir, ponds constructed for that purpose, and under conditions made as nearly natural as possible. The hatching ponds are built with a gradually sloping bottom made of clay and are made to drain toward a deep pool, or kettle, at the outlet, so that the water can be slowly drawn off and all of the fish gathered in a small space at such times when they are to be removed. The Marlon County Fish and Game Protective Association’s ponds at Riverside consist of a wintering pond and four hatching ponds. The wintering pond is tlie smallest nnd deepest of the five. It Is used for keeping the parent fish during the winter and at all other times except the hatching season. The other four ponds are used for hatching and rearing the young flngerlinga. They are filled with water In the early spring and at once are stocked with the water insects, such as daphnia, cyclops, cyprls

and many other species which comprise the food for the baby fish. These insects are seined from stagnant pools and bayous. Nests are placed In these ponds and about May 15 the parent bass are takeu from the wintering ponds and put into the hatching ponds. The male bass clean off the nests within a few hours afterward and bring their mates to the new nests. In from seven to twelve days, depending upon the temparature of the water, the baby fish appear. The success or failure of the hatch depends on the temperature of the water. A temperature of 49 degrees or leas will estroy the eggs. This danger is avoided
