_ -.:."- - ~ ?**? ~ *?*** ****? ?***? " ? m u ii Hecht, of Glencoe A. C, First in Weekly Race! Discover 4Pro' After Winning Run in Harlem 'Novice' Invades Ranks of 'Simon-pures' and Almost Gets Away With ]*st Place By Jack Masters Phil Hecht, of the Glencoe A. C, won tbe weekly road run of the Harlem Heights Athletic League yesterda; afternoon, but had it not been for the w?tchful eye of Harry Singer, master of ceremonies, Phil might have been credited only with second honors, for ' another athlete finished ahead of Hecht, j The fact is, for the first time in several j rears a lowly professional attempted ! to mingle with the simon pures, and as J a result there was considerable com-1 motion on the Heights. As the limit men were being shunted from the mark the "sleep runner" | dashed out of the clubhouse in B. V. D.'s, assisted by a pair of basketball pants, and joined the festivities. This chap had entered as a novice and was allotted the limit handicap, but evi- ! dently he is troubled with insomnia as well as professionalism, for there was not even a standard A. A. U. medal at (take, the race being an invitation af? fair. Has No Union Card The "novice" ran through the field ia a manner which would have shamed Alfred Shrubb in his palmiest days and finished a full half mile ahead of Hecht. As the "pro" walked unblushingly into the dressing room after his effort Harry Singer spotted him. Harry recalled a race held a few year3 ago in which this chap tried the same stunt, and having | the interest rf the A. A. U. at heart! asked to see 'Mr. Brown's" union card, j "Mr. Brown" was sorr; , ho said, but be neglected to bring his credentials with him. Thus endeth "Mr. Brown." Now to tell how Hecht won the race, disregarding the performance of the intruder. A. Seipel.of Morningside, who is fast developing into a dandy little runner, had the honor of leading the pack over the first four miles of the course. With a half mile to go, Hecht, who was al? lotted 3:30, pulled upon even terms with the Morningside A. C. youth, and there followed a prolonged struggle for supremacy. Try as they would neither could pass the other, and they raced with shoulders almost brushing until the finish line loomed up only fifty yards ahead. Class will tell, and Hecht, the older and more experienced runner of the far-mark men. had just a little more reserve, and this reserve carried him over the line about t?*n yards in front. I Lehrman, another Morningside A. C. man, finished third, about 100 yards back. Titterton in Form Frank Titterton, the Mohawk A. C. | veteran, started from scratch, but ! could finish no better than eleventh ! place. Titterton's time of 22:54 actu- I ally was the fastest for the course, but Frank was out of his district, he beinrr a member of the Bronx League, so that i he was not officially credited with making the fastest time. This honor went to Sol Silverstein, of the Glencoe ? A. Cm who finished twelfth from the I 30-second in-irk in 23:43. ; The Morningside A. C carried off! team honors with five points to spare j over representatives of the Glencoe A. j C, the only other club to finish a full | team. The summaries follow: Actual ! Po?. .Vtp-?. a*-'i Cub.

Australia Expects To Send Davis Cup Team Here in 1921 J^ONDON, Jan. 16.?At a dinner held In Melbourne last night for the American tennis players who won the Davis Cup in the re? cent matches with the Australasian defending team, Norman Brookes said he hoped to lead an Australa? sian challenging team to the United States this year in an attempt to regain the international trophy. This information came In a London Times dispatch from Melbourne to? day. The report that Australasia will again challenge for the Davis Cup will be hailed with universal satis? faction in this country, and it* will probably mean, too, that the chal? lenge round matches, to be played on the courts of the West Side Tennis Club at Forest Hills in Sep. tember, will once more find Brookes and his teammates battling against America's best. There is no other ?country at present that seems to have a chance against Australasia in the preliminary round matches. i Bally Leads Rivals In Feature Event At Oriental Park From a Special Correspondent HAVANA, Jan. 16.?Closing with a rush in the last furlong, Bally, under Kelsay's hustling ride, accounted for the American Club Handicap, one mile and a furlong, at Oriental Park to-day, leading Breadman to the finish by a nose, with Docod third. Tht) seven year-old son of Ballot-Sally,'ran the! best race he has shown in quite a while. He was apparently beaten at ? the furlong pole, but came again and was up to win by a small margin. The | race carried a net value of $2,930. j Furbelow went to the lead quickly and stole a lead of a length and in? creased her advantage to one and a half lengths at. the stretch turn. The field closed fast and in a driving finish Ba'ly won. The return of warm weather worked wonders with the going and fairly good time was made in the stake event. The ' fractional time was as follows: 0:24, 0:48 2-5; 1:13 3-5, 1:40 4-5 and 1:55 3-5. The attendance was large and, as three favorites won, the players enjoyed a profitable day.

More Than 5,000 People Witness Contest; Jersey Goalkeeper Saves Score Reversing the result of the match which eliminated them from the na? tional cup competition, the soccer play era of the Erie Athletic Association, of Kearny, N. J., yesterday defeated the Robins Dry Dock eleven by the score of 3 goals to 0 in the championship series of the National Football League at Harrison Field in Harrison, N. J. A crowd of over 5,000 people wit? nessed a rare exhibition of soccer, with the Eries displaying some of the speed? iest play of the season. At half time the victors were leading by 2 to 0. Tintle, the Erie goalkeeper, stopped no less than two penalty kicks. The ball had barely been placed ft nlay when the first penalty was given againRt Spaulding for rough charging. Garside, of the Robins, took the kick, but Tintle stopped the shot in fine shape. After fifteen minutes of excit? ing play, during which the Eries trans? ferred the play to their opponents' side of tho field, Heminsley drove to Ren zulli in goal, who stopped the ball, but tripped and fell. A. Stark then rushed in and netted the ball for Erie. Five minutes from half time Cooper, playing a star game at center halfback, sent in a sizzling drive, which Ren zulli intercepted. In doing so the Robins custodian stepped just inside the goal line and Referee MacMahon allowed th? goal. With the score at 2 to 0 against them, the Robins came back a bit in the second half and several times were dangerous, but in fifteen minutes Hem insley passed out to A. Stark, who headed in the third goal for the home teim. The line-up: Erie A. A. (3) Pos. Robins D. T7>. (0) Tintle.G.Renzulli Rpauldlng*.R. B.Page Post.!'? B.Brownie? Cooper..C. H.Clarke Blakev.I,.

Unknown Real Estate News Better Outlook For Revival in Construction Material for Building Con? tinues on Downward Trend With Approach of Season Near at Hand Hoarding Costly to Dealer Caught With 20,000 Pias ter Boards When Latest Recessions Were Made _ Further building material price re-' auctions, making up the greatest vol? ume of commodities reporting since the first of the year, reflect the vigor? ous measures being taken by building material distributors to encourage an early start for the 1921 building sea? son, according to the curreAt Dow Service Daily Building Reports. The principal items affected, as shown in the latest list, include as phaltum, certain kinds of face brick, window and plate glass, blue, black and galvanized sheet iron and plaster boards in certain sizes. There aiso are price reductions re? ported in the lumber department, in ash, basswood, both quartered and plain oak lumber, North Carolina pine studding, roofers, ceiling and parti? tion, and all hardwood flooring, includ? ing yellow pine. These price reductions have originat? ed at distributing points. There is a general loss-taking movement in mar? ket centers, so as to unload the ma? terial purchased at high price peaks of 1920. One distributor, for instance, has been caught with 20,000 plaster boards on hand, on which he is taking approximately a throe-cent loss on eac.1 one he sells at the lower price which has just become effective. Loak for Cement Shortage Cement salesmen have prophesied to their customers that delivery condi? tions of 1920 will be experienced in tho summer of 1921. They say that there will not be cement on hand in sufficient demand to meet the market's require? ments. Most of the cement mills are closed at present because of lack of forward purchasing by dealers and dis? tributors, who cannot gauge their mar? ket requirements and are disposing of their stocks on hand at rast as possible. Face brick distributors are talking exactly the same way and are warn? ing their customers that if they expect to be covered by the mills on fa?ade material in July and beyond, purely upon an expectation basis unsupported by contract, they must not depend upon precedent and previous trade custom when they find themselves in danger of being unable to supply their jobs with the manufacturers unable to take their order for specified delivery. Building construction interests are looking to Albany for speedy correc? tion of past legislative enactments with reference to solving the housing situa? tion, so that prospective building mate? rial buyers can take advantage of the present sags in building material prices resulting from an almost barren mar? ket. The building trade learns that vigorous efforts are to be made at Albany by several important large in? vestors in real estate improvement to place early on the calendar for con? sideration tax exemption and rent-law repeal or modification. Health author? ities support the general opinion that conditions of overcrowding in practi? cally every municipality in the state demand that as far ?is the state legis? lature is concerned, the way be paved as early in the legislative year as pos? sible, for a resumption of home build? ing as the surest and quickest cure for the housing problem. Uncertainty in Building Building material manufacturers are practically of one voico when asked as to which way building material prices will go after the first six months of L921 elapse. Their opinion is that there is one hope for keeping building mate? rial prices at or near the 1920 prece? dent.- and that is for an early buying movement to develop. They have little hope for such a condition to develop as long as there is inimical building legislation on the statute books at Al? bany. If the building material manufac? turing industries of the country could be sure, by current demand, even though spotty, that there was to be a general building movement before the middle of summer they could take a chance and produce a reserve supply for midsummer and autumn needs, but there does not appear to them to be much on the present surface of things to indicate that the current stalemate in new construction? work is to be changed until all the dust of past and present legislation has been given a chance to settle. It simply means, in TO LET POR BUSINESS PURPOSES their opinion, that when the building bars are let down the demand for build? ing material will be overwhelming. ? In prepared rooting there is afforded \ the clearest possible view of what is developing in trade advices of January 10. In announcing that, concurrent j j with an exceptionally sudden turn on | demand for roll roofing, prices already have started to advance, they show that raw materials used in the production of this important building commodity have been jumped 68 per cent over the 1920 prices. This is the symbol of the entire building material market at present. Bank Sells West Orange ' Dwelling to William S. Yerkes ! The Payson McL.
