Eddie Dolin, of Camden, is second
with 140. and nnothcr Heading player,
Ernie Itiech, stnnds third with 134.
Next in line comes Nat Holman, the
brllllnnt basketcer from Germantown.
Nathan has dropped in 132 baskets in
fifteen games, which is some shooting.
This is true ns regards field goals, but
more especially fouls, and as long as
Dave Bcnnls has Holman on the pay
roll he will not caro If the rule for ono
man to shoot fouls is restored at any
time. In sixty-one chances the Ger
mantown flash made good forty-eight
times, as against the fifty-fivo of Boyle,
the leader, out of 111 tries.
Boy Steele may be slowing up, but the
captain of the Skceters is good enough
to be first in one respect, and that is
the king-of teamworkcrs. Boy has made
thirty-four passes to teammates which
resulted in goals, while Joe Drcyfuss
ran him n close second with thlrty-tbrco.

LOCAL HORSEMEN
ASK CIRCUIT DATE
Stewards Hold Open Meeting at
Bollevuo-Stratford to Discuss
Trotting Situation
Philadelphia is likely to get Its
fifth date of recent yenrs in this
year's Grand Circuit llght-hnrncss
racing schedule, "but," says Al Saun
ders, eccrctnry of tho Philadelphia Itoad
Drivers' Association, "thnt date is not
going to be tho 10th of August or havo
anything to do with that date. Thnt
date was a real Jinx for us last year. We
have had all wo want of lflths of Au
gust nnd wo'ro through with it for life.
Remember the rnln? Thcro weren't pud
dles tho track was ono long puddle."
This was the first thing tho busy
local secretary told the schedule commit
tee at the start of tho annual meeting
of tho stewards of the Grand Circuit nt
the session which winds up tonight in a
grand banquet at tho Bellevue-Strat-ford.
Philndolphla'a Grand Circuit meeting
was all but washed away last year ana
locals are nil "hct up" for a different
date.
Tho schedulo for this year's mceta nil
over the circuit will be divulged this
afternoon, when they will finally bo rat
ified by the stewards in session.
Open Meeting
This morning horscowncrs nnd guests
of nil sorts assembled at the Bellcvue in
open meeting to talk over the situation
Kcncrnlly confronting the stewards for
the coming year.
After luncheon the stewards will meet
and act on the decisions of tho two com
mittees, which held sessions all yester
day nftcrnoon.
The rules committee, consisting of J.
Young, Boston; H. A. Wattcrson,
Cleveland, nnd T. W. Murphy, Pough
kcepsie, convened behind closed doors
first, nnd were followed by a secret ses
sion of the schedule committee, of which
H. A. Tipton. Lexington, Ky. ; H. W.
Swisher, Columbus. O., nnd S. S.
Burtsficld, Toledo, O., are members.
Eastern associations were nil repre
sented nt the meeting yesterday. East
ern tracks generally met with unfavor
able conditions last year, and It is ex
pected that there will bo a shifting of
dates over these circuits.
At Belmont ,
Tho Philadelphia meeting, provided
always that a different date than the
10th of August is granted, will run tho
meeting over the Belmont track, which
hns nut been sold, Mr. Saunders said,
despite reports to the contrary.
The recommendations of .the rules
committee today will have interest to
harness racers all over the country, It
is expected, for those in session have as
their platform a general tightening up
of conditions, which, it is felt, have be
come too lax.
It was said that horse owners are
now strongly opposed to taxing winners,
nnd that unless this matter is attended
to final returns for 1021 will show n
reduced average of starters compared
with last year, tho lowest on record.

Tho Troopers still continue to mop up

Harness Happenings
A year ago when Irvln Gleason, of
Williamsport, Fn., paid $21,000 for
Peter Manning, after he bad trotted a
milo In 2:00 and equaled the world's
record of Easton (3), 2.00, for geld
ings of that age, many horsemen thought
Mr. Gleason had paid a very largo
sum for the unsexed son of Azoff.
Ills performances this season have
demonstrated that $21,000 was not a
bit too much money for this somatlonal
gelding. Ho has been a consistent
winner down tho grand circuit to his
last race at Atlanta, when ho won
the S2500 etako for 2:08 class trotters
in tho fast time cf 2:03, 2:05 and
2:04, with the Atlantic City entry,
Undoubtedly the greatest race of tho
season was tho Transylvania at the
.Lexington meeting;, which was won by
Peter Manning in the wonderful time
of 2:03, 2:02 nnd 2:02. This
$0000 stake race brought out a field
oi nine specdv trotters.
Tho threo heats established a new
world's record for a race of that
length. Each succcrelvo beat lowered
the world's record for four-year-old
geldings, and for trotting geldings of
any ago in a race. Each heat also
established a new trotting record for
the season. The mile by Ncdda in

performance for 1020.

forfeit one game each to Merlon Whites
nnd Moorestown Blues, but inasmuch
as neither of these teams is up in the
lead It will have no bearing on tho
league championship.
With the Dribblers
Rodd, the renter forward of Kaywood,
showed remarkable speed In that gams at
Chester Saturday. This lad netted four goals
In rapid succession from difficult angles on
all counters.
Poor sportsmanship wag displayed by the
Sherwood eleven when It failed to keep Its
appointment with Manager Clark and his
Klngsesslnir tesm. A fair-sited crowd was
on hand. This sort of disappointment to the
fans Is no helping the game any.
Jimmy nnd Dart Mrflhee traveled oier
with the Wanderers' All-mars to New Tork
on Sunday. Tet this same team failed to
play a league gamo with Ktngseeslng last
week. Looks like commercializing some
where. Coach Ptrtton and his young proteges up
at Oermantown 11. C, gave the Financial
picked team a flno lacing Saturday, the
final aosre being T goals to 1. Ituseell. theli
star Inside right, netted four of the seven
goals.
Dobtons still looms up as a contender for
the championship of ths first division of the
Allied League. While the M. K. Smith and
Hibernians are tie. don't overlook the sev
eral postponed games that tho Millers havo.
though that can still change matters a
whola lot.
Two more Independent soccer elevens
made their first appearance here last week,
namely, the Rosewood and the Cambria.
They will stage games each week at Second
street and Erie avenue.
Kaywood C. O. Is without a game for
next Sunday, and would like to hear from
nrst-clans teams who will travel to . tho
South Phlladelphlans' grounds at Thirty
first and Dickinson streets. Address Kay
wood C C. 1230 South Thirtieth street.
Tommy Derbyshire showed he still has a
lot of tatUng dualities In him. Tommy
nettod four of the six goals for Flelsher on
Saturday.
Matt Byon. one of the biggest boosters ot
soccer up In tho Northeast section, wae all
sml.es Sunday even.nr after his squad
trimmed the Saint Carthage All-Stars with
such men as Flynn, Rudolph and Farrell tn
the Ilne-un.
Beose and SIcKre. of the Colonial, are
well mated, and their passing- has been a
big factor in brlng.ng tho large number
of victories to their club. Reese has the
right Idea. Thero are ten more men on
the team besides himself, and he gcldom
monopolizes tho ball.
