This is an unusual privilege, but it 'has been extended because of the belief that bicycle Racers May Change. The "executive of the Canadian Wheelmen's Association, has granted permission to certain bicycle racing men to transfer their allegiance to the Royal Canadian Bicycle Club, which proposes to re-enter the cycle fitted by the active participation of the Royal Canadians in the sport once more. racing in general would be bene- gets Pitcher Howard Merritt rom Chattanooga, and needs pitchers jmore than infielders anyway. Milwaukee was offered $12,500 for { Pitcher Marvin Goodwin last year, 'but President Timme elected to take | players instead of cash and made the | deal with the St. Louis Cardinals by which his club got Livingston, Bes- cher, North and Bohne. North and Bohne enlisted and Bescher refused to play for the salary offered so was traded off. Livingston quit the game, About all Milwaukee has to show for Goodwin, there is Cosy Dolan, who came in the deal for Bescher. The Louisville Colonels look pretty much like a Southern League team with Compton, Knisley, Bues, Ben- nett and Barger on their list. Barger was secured from Memphis, the report that he would go to the Chicago Cubs having been a piece of camouflage. Jee Bennett was secur- ed from Mobile. He looked like one of the best young pitching bets in the south, and Pat Flaherty, who made the deal says he will be a star in the big show one of these days. Curtis Wheat, brother of Mack and Zack of the Brooklyn Dodgers, who is playing with the Springfield East- ern Leaguers, is said to be developing into a ball player of promise, and there is talk that he may get a trial on the Brooklyn team. He is but twenty years old. * The Toledo club is giving a trial to Cecil Coombs, veteran outfielder, who was with the Little Rock team until the Southern League disbanded. Roy Ellam, shortstop and late manager of the Nashville team, joins the Indianapolis Indians. Manager Lajole expects to use him at second base as a regular it he makes good. Bob Steele, released by the Pitts- burg Uirates to Kansas City in the Sanders deal, along with: Carmen Hill, refused to accept the transfer, and it is reported he has Jumped to the shipyards. After waiving on Steele the Cincinnati club changed its mind and concluded it would like Hf To DRIPPING THE FOODS WE 1OVGHT TO VSE Phelan, who was slated 10] Cy; substi to have him, but Kansas City asked the small sum of $2,500 for his re- ease and negotiations Were blocked. Thus a pretty capable pitcher is lost to baseball because of lack of co- ordination." That Steele is worth while is indicated by his last game in the National League, which was a one-hit affair against the Cardin- als. : Frank Wilson, the White Sox re- cruit outfielder from Vancouver, ap- peared in his first' game on July 2nd as a pinch hitter and walked. * He bats and throws left-handed and Man- ager Rowland believes he is going to make good. A f Winnlg Owaers on-Exglish Tr, & For the first time in many years a member of the fair sex heads the list of winning owners in English flat rac- ing, the half-seasom showing Lady James Douglas, with winnings of the amount of §45,500, leading the table. Solly Joel is second with $25,407, while Lord Derby with $2 5 to his credit is close up at third place. Oth- er leading owners in order are: A, W. Cox, $17,000; Sir W. J. Tatem, $12,790; C. T. Garland, $12,650, and J. Watson, $11,370. Gainsborough's big win in the famous Derby Stakes places him at the top of winning horses with $45,500, Ferry coming next with $20,500, wile My Dear is third with $17,000. With thirty-one victories so far to his credit, the fam- ous champion jockey, Steve Dono- ghue, tops the list of winning joc- keys, B. Carslake is second with eighteen, followed by ¥. Fox, fifteen; G. Hulme, thirteen, and A, Whalley, with eleven, 'World's Bicycle Champipnships, During the months of August and September next several world's cha m- plonship bicyele races will be deeid- ed at the Philadelphia and Boston tracks. Heretofore these contests were staged in the great French Mo- tordrome, Pare das Princes, Paris. Owing to war conditions in Europe, the International Cycling Associa- tion has given the National Cycling Association of this country the right to hold the events, Arranging for" Big Team Games. Arrangements were closed in Montreal to have Chicago and Bos- ton teams of the National League play on July 28th. It will be the first major league game ever piayed in Montreal, and if financially suc- cessful, it is intimated that a series of games between nearby major league teams will be staged here during the season. by AY a or | ~., THE FOODS THE OI'.SOLDIERS NEED Jaughing up your sleeve at your hor-| | | | | | The Golfer's Dictionary.
