Contestants in Long Grind Fail to Trick Field by Sprints.

New York, Dec 14. Riding into the crucial hours, when one successful j sprint may decide the winner, the rid- j era In the six-day bicycle race at Madl- j son Square Garden set out last night I to regain the ground lost in spending ; so much time on the level track instead i

of the saucer, and again pass the record. They are now about twenty-five miles behind the best previous marks. At the end of the 116th hour they had ridden 2.158 miles and 5 laps, as against 2,148 miles and 8 laps, mad by Rutt and Stol in 1908. Th Loftes-Carmen and Suter-Suter teams made. valiant efforts during the

day to recover their two lost laps, but every sprint they started ended In failure, with the entire pack at their heels. Kogler made the most sensational sprint of the . race shortly after 5 o'clock. Starting at the top of the saucer on the Madison avenue turn, he left the pack nearly half a lap behind, but that was as far ahead as he could get, although he kept up the pace for twenty-five minutes. The Australian team, carrying the field at a frightful pace In the early morning hours, had been promised J300 by Harry Payne Whitney, who occupied a center box, to Jump the field. Making two-minute pickups, Pye and Grenda almost succeeded In lapping the bunch when the accident to Walthour happened that stopped the sprinting. Shortly after, Eddie Root tried to hold " the riders back unjustly and was fined $25 by the referee.

SWAfED

(Special to Thb Times.) , Crown Point, Ind., Dec. 14. Friday the 13, had no terrors for the high school basket ball team In their game, with East Chicago last evening, the hoodoo and jinx that usually is supposed to come around on that day steering clear of the local team and allowing them to win by a score of 59 to 3 over their Kast Chicago opponents. The game was devoid of any sensational features the visitors being simply out-classed the local team making baskets at will. Some rather rough work rras done at times and the players' were considerably bruised up before the end of the game. The entire Crown Point team starred In rolling up the high score, their playing at times being extra fine. The visitrs scored their only score in the first half and this could have been prevented by a litlo faster work at the time by the local five. The following played on the Crown Point team: Pettlbone, cf Aulwurm, 'r. f.; Bruce, 1. f.; Newton, guard, and Henning, guard.' : Kast Chicago lined up as follows: Toth, r. f.; Specter, 1. f. ; Martin, c: Williams, r. g.; Kschenbach, 1. g. The referee was J. McNeiley of Gary.

Three rounds o fboxlng were then Indulged In with Al MoCluskey. Boxing Is not the best word to use, as the two big fellows slugged, Palzer appearing more anxious to trade punches rather than to avoid blows. O'Rourke is after Jim Cameron, a black giant and a clever boxer, to help Palzer In his workouts. Palzer"s daily routine from now on will include boxing, and on Sunday afternoon he will entertain visitors at his quarters with ten rounds of sparring, provided he can scare up enough sparring partners who can take the gaff.

THREE CLUBS AFTER THE SERVICES OF BRESNAHAN New York, Dec. 14. Roger Bresnahan will settle his financial difficulties with the St. Louis National league club before he entertains any sort of proposition from any rival National league team.- "I am in no hurry to force my hand," said Roger. "I have an open and shut case against the St. Louis owners,, and they will be forced to meet my. terms, which are not, by the wildest stretch of imagination, unreasonable in any manner. Until such time as St. Louis may see fit to come to terms with me I will not entertain offers. Three National league clubs have assured me they will talk business in big figures as soon as I can straighten out the little unpleasantness with the Cardinals."

The cup defenders will not be selected for several months in all probability, as a series of tryouts is expected to be held in various polo centers of the United States in order that the best combination may be available to meet the English quartet.

Los Angeles, Dec. 14. It seems that a wholesome respect for one Luther McCarthy has brought about an entire change in the training plans of Al Palzer, and instead of taking things easy for a. week, the big Iowa boxer knuckled down to hard work today. . "It's a long run from' New York, you know," explained genial Tom O'Rourke 'at Doyle's camp today. "Climatic conditions are different here, and as Al needs a lot of work we have decided to

ninth hole at the Chicago Golf club. I am not likely to forget it. i Mr. C. H. Herman, member of the Edgewater Golf club, was playing in a match with Mr. Denehy last summer They were all square going to the eighteenth hole. Two shots put Mr. Herman about seevnty-five yards off the green. His next shot was a wonder. ' It hit short, took a bound and hit the flagstaff.. Then, instead of bounding back or away, it holed out.

Not every one can give such a spin to the ball. Mr. L. A. Goddardt, president of the Chicago State bank, was playing at Homewood In the qualifying round of his first tournament. He was one of the last players to finish and as he was going to the. last hole he heard the score for last place. His ball lay fiftyfive yards off the last green and he had

one to qualify- He holed that shot and it was his first tournament. Mr. E. F. Carry once made a splendid shot going to the fifth hole at Onwentsla. After a solidly hit tee shot he played a perfect mashle that went straight into the hole and did not hit

the flagstaff until it reached the bottom of the cup. At another time Mr. Carry was playing at a summer resort and the match was close. They had reached a short hole about 155 yards. The surface of the fair green was very Irregular, with

many protruding stones. Mr,
