Dempj-ey TOTAL

Dotted line in diagram divides right and left-hand blow landed by the old and new champions. Artist Sheehan's diagram, compiled at ringside, shows the number of effective blows scored by the ex-champion and his successor. The dotted lines through center of drawing divide the left and right hand punches landed by each man. It will be noticed that most of Willard's punches reached high on Jack's head, owing to the close-in crouch used by the new champ. Willard's jaws, while lofty targets, show the results of Dempsey's accuracy. Few blows were sent by either man to the body.

on Richmond tor the Independence i day defeat, and won over the Quak- j era here. Sunday afternoon, 6 to . ! The Quakers registered eleven clean I bingles off Sommers, but were unable j

to connect at the proper tim. Korfhagen drove a long one to cef,ter field in the eighth. It bounced over the fence for the circuit, with one man on base. With only one error in the entire game, the fans were given the cleanest exhibition seen here this season. Minner allowed but ten hits, but the Maxwells bunched them in five innings and with Schlenker's error, made every one count. The game was witnessed by a large crowd of Newcastle rooters, who were anxious to see the Maxwells avenged. The score:

For household use a hand operated darning machine has been Invented that mends holes in almost all kinds of textiles quickly and neatly.

as sports is concerned.

This is the prediction of Winfield Kinnan, secretary of the Grand Cir

cuit and also secretary of the North Randall track, where the grand circuit opens its season July 7.

And the figures of the opening meeting bear out Kinnan's belief. A total of 249 horses have been entered in the fifteen late closing events.

Seventy-two horses whose names were entered in the stake races are still eligible. This gives a total of 321 horses for the week's card, an average of over sixteen horses to each race. Officials are prepared to split at least eight of the late closing events into two divisions if need be and the probabilities are that the program will be started an hour earlier than usual every day to accommodate the extra heats thus made. Five Stake Events Carded Five big stake events are carded for the Randall meeting. They are the Edwards, 2:08 pacing; the Forest City, two-year-old trotting; the Fasig. three-year-old trotting; the Ohio. 2:08 trotting and the Tavern stake, 2:14 trotting. "Judging from the past perform-

of the races is going to have plenty of class as well as a big entry," says

Kinnan. VI look for our meeting to be the biggest in the track's history and one of the biggest in the sport's history. The way the horsemen are booking their strings through the season indicates that the other clubs will have the fame tang-up meeting." Eleven cities will be visited by the trotters and pacers of the circuit thi3 year. They are North Randall, Kalamazoo, Toledo, Columbus, Philadelphia, Poughkeepsie, Readville, Hartford, Syracuse, Lexington and Atlanta. North Randall gets two weeks although they are separated. Columbus gets three'weeks of racing, one week early in the season and two weeks during the state fair. Lexington is the only otljer track getting more than one week. Pop Geers, Tommy Murphy, Billy Snow and all the other old boys who have helped make the game what it is and the principal drawing cards at the meets are set for another season. Which reminds us that back in 1912 somebody got the story off their chest that Pop Geers felt the many years of riding In the sulky and had decided to quit driving in races, devoting all

his time to training his always large stable of horses. But the number ol races since then in which Pop Geers has failed to drive his own mounts ie small. There are several new drivers on the cards too, and their work will be watched with interest. The entry lists for the racing at North Randall and the weeks following contain a great number of new horses. One of the newcomers of 'which much is expected in the Ranrall meet is Grace Direct. She has been racing on the twlce-rounds so far this season and will make her mile track debut in the 2:04 pace. She hung up a mark of 2:064 on the halfmile -track. She has defeated all comers so far this year, winning live stright events. She has stepped three miles at her 2:06 clip, which shows that it was not a flash. Single G. is ready to fight it out with Miss Harris M. and Directum J. two of the great pacers in the game last season, for honors In the free-for-all paces around tho circuit. U. N., one of Charlie Valentine's hopes, la entered against the other stars In the free-for-all at Randall and Charlie says his bay stallion may surprise the. railbirds.
