TO man driver who ever 1 v rode a sled can keep me licked,” Lydia Hutchinson, who finished fifth Thursday in the American do? derby race at Ashton, Idaho, declared, according to reports from Ashton today. It is said the girl didn’t mention she had finished ahead of four men drivers with years of trail experience. She only regretted, ’tls said, that she i did not win. There's a game Western girl for you! Miss Hutchinson said she would have an unbeatable dog team next j year and would purchase anew lead dog at once and start building up next year’s string. When, they start preparations one year ahead of the race, the true importance of the event to the people of the snow country can be understood Ahead of Miss Hutchinson in the famous classic of the American trails finished Smoky Gaston, taking the t championship away from Tud Kent j in a drive over the snow which sep- j arated them only fourteen seconds at | the finish line. Third In the twenty-five-mile race was Olcott Zein, just ahead of George Pitcher, who took fourth place. All had crack strings.

Bud Taylor Cancels Tuesday Night Scrap With Johnny Sheppard

JIMMY KELLY OF CHICAGO SECURED 111 PLACE Terre Haute Bantam Has Attack of Boils and is Unable to Enter Ring. Due to an injured thumb and an attack of boils. Bud Taylor, Terre Haute bantam, today was forced to call off his engagement with Johnny Sheppard at Tomlinson Hall here Tuesday night. Taylor wired Matchmaker Farb of the American A. C. of his troubles and to prove he was sincere he said he would be in the city Tuesday and undergo an examination by the club physician. Kelly Rated Highly Farb immediately got In touch with Chicago and signed Jimmy Kelly, classy Windy City Italian bantie, to take Taylor’s place against Sheppard in the ten-round main event. It is considered fortunate that Farb was able to obtain Kelly’s service on short notice. Jimmy is one of the best boys at his weight in the Middle West. Kelly and Sheppard fought a thrilling draw bout some time ago. Each is of the boring-ln type and always on the go. Kelly claims a victory over Bud Taylor. The Chicago lad and Hoosier star mixed in a match some time ago and along about the middle of the fight Taylor asserted he was fouled. Confusion Occurs It seems that much confusion occured over Bud’s actions and a foul verdict never was officially given. Taylor refused to continue, however, and Kelly generally was conceded the honors. In addition to the Kelly-Sheppard scrap Tuesday, two other ten-round bouts will be on the card. Pinky Crosby and Tommy Raymond, middleweights, will battle and Bobbie Bridges and Billy Mails, welters, will struggle In a ten-rounder In the opening event of the night.

BASEBALLING IN JAPAN Irish Meusel Uses Radio to Spread Weal and Woe

IRISH MEUSEL DOCTORED THE RADIO BASEBALLING IN JAPAN got the American expeditionary forces going and coining. Irish Meusel was the life of the party during the selected team of big leaguers’ recent trip to the Orient, judging from this story as told to Billy Evans of NEA Service.

By WAITE HOYT. Pitcher for the New York American and World Series Hero. ON our return voyage Irish Meusel of the New York Giants had the entire party up in the air for about a week. Each day on shipboard it is customary for the radio operator to issue a daily bulletin porta nt news of ,W the world in brief. ; As we neared § ■ the United States ! ; , on the last lap of Francisco. Irish K- r. jf . ■ : got la itis work, ■ggngjH*' and it caused all kinds of gossip. While In Japan we. from time to time, would ge* BMBJHMIiOK£B some baseball dope from the WAITE HOYT States. Any baseball nows that had a direct hearing on any member of the party somdhow reached us, either through letters from our friends or some paper.

I heard that a trade with Chicago, which involved my transfer from the Yankees to the White Sox. had been discussed. One day, to my great surprise, I learned from the radio bulletin that the deal had gone through. "Waite Hoyt, Aaron Ward and Bob Meusel of the New York Americans have been traded to the Chicago White Fox for Eddie Collins and Bib Falk," read the bulletin. A day or two later another bomb was thrown Into camp by the following item: "Eddie Roush of Cincinnati has been traded to the New York Giants for Casey Stengel, George Kelly and 'Rosy' Ryan." By that time I had gotten over my shock and quit raving, but Kelly and Stengel took up the cue where I hud quit. Stengel insisted he would play in New York or nowhere. A few days Later the radio bulletin carried the report that waivers had been asked on at least six of the players who were making the tour. No names were given.
