OLYMPIC -ATHLETES
SL JUNE 14
Committee Announces Plans For
Transportation of Team to
Stockholm.
OUTSIDERS WILL BE WELCOME
About 10(1 Comprtltora Provided For,
While the Finland Can Carry
250 More
Ths American Olymplo team for Stock
holm will mil from hern on .June 14, ac
cording to tho announcement made by tho
American .Olympic committee yesterday.
Tfce athlotan "will nail on the Finland, flying
th Stan and Stripes, and sho will call at
Antwerp about June 23 for stay of two ilaya.
If the schedule la carried out the fled Star
liner will sling her tnudhook In front of
Stockholm on June 70, tho very day tho
atadlum will bo opened ofllclally. Tho
athletic events will not begin till July 6.
Tba liner will nnchor opposite Togalvtken,
and a landing will bo made easy by a launch
or pontoon bridge. It la planned to keep
the athletes aboard during the games so
that they can havn tho proper sort of train
lag food and ho within easy roach of trainers,
coaches, mentors, rubbers, hnndlors ana
other attendants. Tho Finland will leave
for homo on July 30, but tho outsiders who
will travel with the team nnd who might
care to return by different routos but by the
lines of the International Mercantile and
Marine Company will bo able to do so.
Up to the present, thoro has bean no offi
cial statement about the team or tho plans
of the Olympic Committee, but In port the
following statement was sent out yeatorday:
The commlttcn plans to take nt least
100 athletes and keep themiaboard tho
steamer In tho harbor, givo the regular
training table diet, take the best rare of
them in every possible way so there will
be no nxcuso for anything going wrong.
In arranging for tho chartor of the steamer
the committee, consisting of Col. TRnhnrt
M. Thompson, Allison V. Armour, Bartow
8. Weeks and Utistavua T. Klrby, found
after consultation with tho steamship
people that uso passengers could be Utkon
in addition to tho American team nnd It
Is the intention of the commlttoo to give
preference to tho members of the different
alhlntlo clubs that are members of tho
Amateur Athletlo Union and the dllTorent
colleges interested in this participation
of Americans In the gamos ana who might
want to go with tho team to soa them train.
It looks now as though the reservations
will be snapped up early.
President Klrby of the Amateur Athletic
Union, who left on a Western trip last
Sunday, has taken with him diagrams of
the Finland and cards showing tha rates
decided on by tho committee for the trip
Sd will offer these terms to tho different
lbs and colleges from here to San Fran
cisco, llartow H. Weeks Is now working
out a special announcement for tho clubs
with a diagram which will bo ready for
distribution In a few days, and it is tho in
tention of the committee to appoint on,
man in each club in the United States and
nt eaoh large colloge as u representative
of the committee to take charge of those
who might care to travel on the Finland.
The proposition of tha commlttoo is an
attractive one. As a matter of fact tho
rates are far below those of any othor
first class steamer. As tho committee has
secured the Finland the proposition will
be purely American from tho day alio
lsaves the port untilehe ret urns to Antwerp,
where they will disembark.
Secretary Sullivan has received from
Secretary Krlstlan llellstrom of the
Swedish Olymplo committee a reply that
clearly explains all of the rules about
which any questions could be asked nd
this letter will now be sent to the members
of the American committee and tho ath
letes, so they will know under lust what
conditions they will compete, This ex
planation of the rules will clear the at
mosphere and make things more pleasant
when the team arrives at Stockholm. The
letter from Secretary Hellstrom Is as
follows :

SILENT KNIGHT IN BROOKLYN.
New Motor Added (o Exhibits In Twenty
third Beglment Armory.
Crowds flocked to tho Drooklyn Auto
mobile Show yostordny In tho Twenty
third Ttoglmcnt nrmory In splto of bad
weather. Ilona fldo sales becamn more
numerous and many prospectivn buyers
nttonded. Now fnnturon went added to tho
display ynstortlny, among them being tho
Hllont Knight sliding, slonvo motor, which
Is cut out snctlonnlly, showing nil of Hit)
moving parts In oporntlun. Many havn
not yet seen how thn slcnvo vnlvos work,
but ran obtain n thorough understanding
of them by an examination nt the Stearns
booth. Tha motor Is on nn elovittod plat
form, raited off so an to be plainly vislhlo
to a large number.
What is probably tho most novel display
nt tha show is the Palgo Detroit Colonial
coupe, which causes many to smile nt Its
quaint array. Two children, Wilbur nnd
Holon Lowell, the son nnd daughter of ,1
W. Lowoll, aro in costume as Ucorgo nnd
Martha Washington. Helen makes a very
beautiful Colonial damo In her whlto pow
dered wig, while Wilbur looks much thn
same as the father of his country did about
tho time ha "did It with his little hntchat.'
Several additional makes of cars havn
been added to the show since tha list of
exhibitors at the opanlng was announced.
Tha Lion, displayed by the Lion Auto
Sales Company; tho K-tt-t-T shown by
U. F. Rati and tho Clno offorod by tho Grant
Square Auto Company aro Included among
these.
There aro new Ideas to bo noted at Brook
lyn that were not seen at either of the New
York automobile straws. For Instance,
bumpers on trucks, similar to those em
ployed on touring cars, are a now departure.
Self-starters and other davlces among the
accessories exhibit aro shown publicly for
tho first time.
Some of the exhibitors display plonsuro
and commercial models In the same booth,
while others have sepnrnto booths for onch
style. Tho Poor less, Ford, l'opo Hart
ford each havo two distinct displays, one
In charge of truck nnd delivery wagon
exports nnd the othor with pleasure car
salesmen In attendance.
To-night Is designated as Long Island
Automobllo Club night.
DELINQUENT GOLF CLUBS.
Twenty-three M. G. A. Ori-anltatlons
Ilavo Not Sent In Handicap I.I sis.
The unusual spectacle of a Metropolitan
Golf Association handicap list minus the
names of one or more scratch players may
bo seen In the near future. If so, the fault
will hardly be with tho M. G. A. committee
of which A. It. Pogson is chairman. Ills
associates are Wyatt W. Toylor, George II.
Dames, John S. ood ward :d and Oswald
Kirkby, all of whom aro powerless to make
further progress unless the clubs do their
part. In other words, twenty-threo clubs
have failed to send in their reports to the
committee.
It Is a matter of record that certain or
ganizations such as Bedford, Mahopac.
Flushing and Princeton are almost always
late and the work of the committee is hard
enough having to await their pleasure,
but this year oven somo of tho prominent
and usually prompt clubs such as Garden
City, F.nglewood, Deal, Morris County and
St. Andrews have fallen by the wayside.
last year tho list was issued tho night
of March 31, thereby baatlng.nll previous
records. In order to accomplish that the
committeo held seven meetings, tho shortest

TO ACCEPT BRITISH CHALLENGE
Board of Governors ot Molor Boat Club
Will Meet This F.vcnlng.
The board of governors of tha Motor
Boat Club of America will meet this evening
at the Automobile Club to accept the chal
lenge of the Royal Motor Yacht Club for a
race for the British International trophy.
It is probable that at this meeting some
arrangements will be made for thn defence
of the trophy. Motor boatmen in all parts
of the country are to bo lnvttod to build
boats for the eliminating trials which will
be held for tho purpose of selecting the
three representatives of this country.
Just who ro tbe races will bo held this
year ia another matter to be settled. I.nst
year they were at Huntlngtou and the
year before that at I-arehmont. Hunting
ton's course la a Una one well suited to speed
motor boats, but there aro somo members
of the club who would like tho races to be
held nearer the city. Commodore .1. Stuart
Blackton would Ilka tho Attmitlo VaoIiI.
Club to hold the races, but tha objection
to the lower bay la that there aro so many
logs and so muoh driftwood that accidents
might happen. Then it would bo difficult
to get a course down the bay to fulfil the
requirements of tha deed of gift without
closing the harbor altogether to commorco.
Another course talked of is nt (Hen r.ovn
or Hempstead Harbor. The Glenwood
country ciuu, a new, big organization, has
headquarters there and a course could be
laid from near the breakwater, which would
be ideal for motor boating. Thero is it
properly mirveyed nautical rhllo course
there over which the speed boats could
bo tried.
Columbia Plays Yale To-night.
Tbe Columbia basketball team plays the
Yale five at New Haven to-night In what
may be a deciding game In tho intorcol
loglate championship series. Columbia Is
at present leading the intercollegiate league,
and a vintory over the I lls would make tho
Blue and White certain of at least a tie for
first plaoe in tho llnalstandlng.ta Columbia
still has unother game to play with Penn
sylvania, lalo has won only one game
In tbe intercollegiate series, hut has always
plated a strong game on Its home floor,
and for this reason the Columbia five is not
lasing any cnunces ana win put rorth Its
full strength. The Columbia team Is in
good condition and has played only one
game In the last ten days, whereas the i ale
five has had two hard contests.

Hnrry McCormick Knocks Ball
Over Right Field Fence of

' GOOD DRIVE BY SHAFER
Mcdrnw Wlllliic to Piny Athletics, hut
Wnnts Kpjnilnrs In tho
Lineup.
MAttMN, Tex., Feb. 26, Hnrry McCor
mick, the former Giant outfielder, drove
one of t-'-ati Kynns's shoots over the right
field fence In this afternoon's practice.
The soaring sphere cleared the barrier by
somo fifty fret und has not been seen
since. McUrHH Is authority for tho state
ment that McL'ormlck's Is the first drive
to clear tho fenco nt Kmcrson Park.
Schnfcr, who irppuurcd In a uniform for
the llrst time this morning, lined out a
ball which struck the fence, and this was
the second longest hit of the day.
McOrnw Is still engaged In teaching his
youngsters the elemental principles of the
game. In splto of the fact that the Giants'
manager only returned from San Antonio
at C o'clock this morning he was among
the first on tho field at morning practice.
The two hours of work before luncheon
consisted mnltily of trying out different
combinations In the infield and n Kcncral
loosening up of stiffened muscles.
in the artarnoon Koblnson warmed up
the pitchers while McGruw Instructed the
remainder of the squad In tbe Intricacies
of the fall atvny elide. A baso Is placed
In the centre of a plot of soft loosened
earth and the embryo major leaguers dive
at It time after time under the wutchful
eye of the New York lender.
l.ator in the afternoon came the butting
practice. Encli pitcher took his turn on
the mound, but whllo several of them dis
played considerable speed. Tesreau was
the only one who showed nny great signs
of control, This Mk right hnnder nan
Improved wonderfully slnit- Inst year and
seems to havo a very fair chance of
liccomlnc n regular. The pitching staff
may bo augmented to-monow, as Louis
Drucke Is expected to arrive.
In speaking of the possibility of n meet
ItiK with the Athletics McOraw said
to-day :
"I should lw willing to nlay two games
one In San Antonio und one In Dnllns,
but think It would be better to play mixed
tennis Instead of llmltlnc the contestants
to the tecrulls. The games would draw
lurxe crowds and piople would be disap
pointed unless they saw at least a few of
tne regulars, i toiu .Mr. urusn mis, nnu
he may take up the matter with Connie
Muck.''
Kmcrson Field Is again In condition
mvlni; to two sunny days and the unceas
ln;r efforts of Groundkeeper Murphy. Tho
tumpeinture dropped seeral degrees to
tiny, but McGrnw Is rutletled to have a
clear sky overhead and Is using every
endeavor to whip the recruits Into some
sott of shape before tho arrival of tho
regulars.
BROWN OUTPOINTS COSTER.
In Lively Lightweight Encounter at the
Irving A. C.
Knock Out Brown, the Hast Side light
weight, outpointed Joe Coster of Brook
lyn, by a cloto margin In n ten round
bout at the Irving A. C- In Brooklyn last
night. Brown was the snme aggressive
boy with no science, but his strong left
to the body did much to weaken Coster.
Coster used u left uppercut with great
skill, but there was no steam behind It
und he did little or no damage. IC. O.
rushed at pleasure In the first part of
the mill ami landed hard on Joe, but later
In the fight Coster did some leading nnd
along with worrying Brown sent In stiff
left uppercuts that kept Brown guess
ing. Brown got the opening round by rush
ing In and landing hard on the body re
peatedly whllo Coster sent In nn occa
sional upper. cut at cjose quarters. The
second was even, for when Brown rushed
Coster took a few blows, hut worked In
an uppercut with tho left that pushed
Brown s head back. Tho next round was
also even, Brown playing for the wind on
tho aggressive, while Coster scored a few
short hooks to the stomach. Coster put
up n lively fight In the fourth, running
Into Brown with Jnbs nnd scoring suc
cessfully with left uppercuts. Coster
scored again In the fifth, righting Brown
at close quarters and not giving him a
chance to get set. Ho sent In stiff upper
cuts, but he lacked the punch to stagger
Brown. Near the end of tho round Brown
cored two stiff body blows.
Tho East Slder came out on a mad rush
In the sixth anil landed hard with right
nnd left to Coster's body. He rushed the
Brooklyn boy to the ropes and landed re
peatedly to the wind. Before Brown could
end matters tho gontf sounded and Coster
w ent bnck to his corner somewhat groggy.
Coster fought like mad In the seventh
and punched Brown around the ring, land
ing uppercuts unner tne cnin. Ho toon
Brown by surprise nnd though the latter
landed a few hard knocks to the body It
was Coster's round.
From the opening of the eighth Coster
began to show tho effects of the body pun
ishment administered by Brown and he
hung on whenever the opportunity pre
sented Itself, pinning Brown's gloves
under his arms. Brown landed a few
stiff swings to the lody, but Coster came
back with uppercuts that Brown did not
seem to inlntL This round was oven.
Brown got tho last two rounds by forcing
tho tight and landing hnrd to tho body,
weakening Coster, while Coster sent In
his harmless left uppercuts.

Do You Know About The
Utility
Combinations of
Chalmers Cars?
If you contemplate spending $5000 for an automobile,
consider the remarkable values which you secure through
the Chalmers Utility Combinations. For instances
Two Cars ( Chalmers "Thirty-Six" Limousine $3000
I Chalmers "30" Touring or Roadster 1 500
Total $4500
Two Cars Chalmers "Six" cylinder Touring $3250
i Chalmers " I hirty-Six Roadster 1800
Total I5050
With either of these combinations you get two excellent
automobiles for the cost of one $5000 car. , x
Many people see the same disadvantages in using a big car
for runabout purposes that are apparent in the use of a four
horse drag for shopping or marketing.
We will welcome the' opportunity of telling you more about
other Chalmers Utility Combinations.

prizes of last year's New York national mas
ters tournament, in which Marshall and
Capablauca wero the chief prlzo winners

cago player gave up his queen's pawn for
the sake of opening a long diagonal for his
bishop. Lator he was left with a weak pawn
at K.I. Attempting a combination Chajes
failed to reckon on all of the consequences
and got into a position where the loss of the
exchange was forced.
'1 he Westerner was suffering from a bad
cold, in consequence of which the second
game will not he played until Wednesday

a clean slate throughout tho tournament
with four victories to their credit. The
Btuyvesant nnd De Witt Clinton high
schools of Manhattan are on even terms
for second honors with two victories nnd
one defeat. ,
In the llrst period many hard shots at
the cage were turned aside. The Staten

opponents. Manual began a terrific at
tack at Curtls's cngo nt the outset of
the final half. Harmon shot n goal In
two minutes, while Heaver added the win
ning tally on a good long shot three min
utes later. Mlldrun scored the Richmond

CANAL ZONE ANNEX
A. A. A. Rfellabllity Run Likely to
Re From Indianapolis to
Now Orleans.
GOOD LAW FOR LAMP MAKERS
Senntor Stllmcll Proposes Ono That
Will Mako Uso of Signal De
vice Peremptory.'
The (Hidden tour for 1012 or rather the
A. A. A. national reliability run, as It ought
to be called, since the touring body has
shelved the Glldden trophy-Is likely to
be a Mlddlo West to 1-ar oiith run. It Is
understood on more or less reliable Informa
tion that tho run Is to start at Indianapolis
and to strike south to New Orleans, It
Is reported further that when tho tourists
get to the Crescent City a boat w ill be waiting
thero to take them on a run to the Canal
Zone nnd to return Ihem to New Orleans
after a brier tlmo spent In inspection of the
digging. I rom thnt city they will be able
to take tholr own way back to whatever
Places they came from.
'lhus the (illdden tour It Is almost Im
possible to speak of It by any other name
will have a marine flavor, although of course
that part or It from New Orleans to Colon
nnd I'anama and return will not count In
deciding on the endurance of the automo
biles. It will hove a decided bearing on
tho sturdlnoss of the contestants.
Although It has not been dollnltely de
cided that the tour will go this wny. It is
known that arrangements havo been made
In New Orleans ror the chartering or a
boat and that the money has been forth
coming for it. So It Is very probable this
will be part or the tail reliability run.
lhe Long Island Automobile Club has
received notification from A. J. Deer, presi
dent of tho New ork State Automobile
Association, to tho edoct that a bill Intro
duced by Senator Stllwell, which already
has passed Its third leading, would menu
If It became a law that none of tho tall lights
now used on automobiles could be kept
In service and that automnblllsts would have
to go to great expense in substituting the
prescribed form or lighting tor that now In
use. Mr. Deer's letter In part wns as rol
lows" "1 have carefully gone over this bill
nnd hao arrived at tho following con
clusions If this bill becomes a law It will
necessitate tho throwing aside of all tall
lights now mod on automobiles within
New lork Mate, and the replacing of tamn
with lighting signal which will show onn
colorof light when car Is travelling and will
nave to snow another color ol light when
car Is slowing down, nnd will have to show
tho third color ot light when car intends to
stop. There is a device on tho market that
w in ao tins it h u patented Uevlco and costs
about t'.'o. It would also cast about 10
moro to Install it on a car. So you can see
what this bin mean to tho nutomoblllsts
In Now Vork Mate If It becomes a law.
"Tho bill was introduced early this month
and nmuiids tho I 'unit I l.uvv. Senator Stil
wull Is chairman of tho Codes Committno
nnd tha bill wns reforrod to ids committee.
I understand thnt It wns reported out or
committee and passed thn third reading with
wry few Senutora In their chairs. Tho

"This looks to me like ono or the most
