Quite a little hard feeling has been stirred up between the Illinois Trust team and the Western Electric company's stars. The bankers claim that the Westerns are endeavoring to lure . Cy Young, the hero of the Illinois j Trust pitching staff, away, not for the J purpose of nsing him but in order to ; prvem i : "fc""'" . pririrmn . While Young has not jumped the team yet it looks as though he In weakening. It is said his loss would hurt the team considerably, as tho bankers figure themselves as being the favorite with a hurler like Young on their payroll.

It was decided late last night that the Nyberg' shall start under the name of the "Endicott" special. Referee David Beecroft could find no reason why such an arrangement would not be acceptable. His decision will be approved by the A. A. A. contest board. He decided to allow the Nyberg to start after a telephone communication with Henry Nyberg at Anderson, Ind.. in which Nyberg said the car belonged to Endicott. Two automobile companies and three private owners will be represented. Three Mercers entered by the Mercer Automobil company, three Masons, entered by F. S. Deusenberg. designer for the Mason Autmobile company, E. H. Delling, designer and owner of the Deltal. and the Endicott Special, to be driven by Harry Endicott, are the probable competitors. The race will give the first opportunity the Mason and Mercer companies have, had to compare their speed creations on the' road. The Deltal does not figure In the rivalry. If the car proves a success stock models probably will be made. For Delling the race is merely an experiment. With whimsical disregard of past performances, the Deltsl with Joe Dawson driving has been picked by racing fans here to have the best chance of beating Spencer Wishart's fast little Mercer, which made the best time In practice. It is conceded that the victory lies between Dawson, It

Wishart'and Ralph Mulford, who will drive the Mason 26. Ralph De Palma will not be in the first day's race. He has wisely chosen to reserve his strength for the Elgin National, figuring the strain of 301 mlles in its present rough condition too severe a test to be repeated on the following day. De Palma's absence unquestionably accounts the Mason and Mercer companies have for the attitude of the railbirds toward Dawson. Ed Pullen will drive De Palma's car. Pullen drove here and at Milwaukee last year, and is a arst class pilot, if slightly inexperienced. Charles AV. Luttrell of Chicago, an amateur until two weeks ago, will be the third member of the Mercer team. He will drive the car entered by Al Schillo of the Chicago agency.

The Wisconsin state boxing commission has made its Influence in the boxing game felt for tne first time since the new state law went into effect.
