reads as follows:

Aute Race Dates Named.
The automobile racing season for
1016 will be officially opened In New
York city on Saturday. May 13, when
the contest for the Metropolitan enp,
heralded by motor enthusiasts as the
great event o f the year, will be held
at the new Sbeepshead Bay speedway.
In addition to the contest for the
Metropolitan trophy, there w ill be three
other races—for the Queens County
cup. the Coney Island cup and the
William Kemble cup. Tw enty thou
sand dollars in cash prizes will be o f
fered. The race for the Metropolitan
cup will mark an Innovation In auto
mobile racing. In that the distance will
be only 150 miles. The distance o f the
other contests will be as follows:
Queens County cup, fifty miles; Coney
Island enp, twenty miles, and the W il
liam Kemble cup, ten miles. Thus the
public demand for shorter races, with
livelier action, w ill be met-
The Intercollegiate Regatta.
A fter mucb controversy tbe date of
tbe intercollegiate regatta at Rough
keepsie has been fixed for Saturday.
June 17. Tills is in accord with tbe
wishes o f the railroad compan- which
furnishes transportation fo r tb e e r wds
that attend, and means <?oncess “ ns on
the part o f the University o f Pennsyl
vania. whose representatives objected
to so early a date on tbe ground that It
would give tbe red and blue crews less
time In which to train, owing to exam
inatlons. which run far Into June. The
tide In tke Hudson will be running up
stream In tbe afternoon o f tbe follow
ing Saturday. .Tune 24. and the railroad

Oppose Home For Ball Players.
A majority of the members o f the
Detroit American league baseball club
do not approve the plan o f establishing
a home for retired baseball players
Several o f the Tiger players have de
clared that uDder present salary con
ditions any capable ball player who
does not become Incapacitated by In
jury should be able to save at least a
modest fortune during bis diamond
career. Some were inclined to think
that players who were not o f a saving
disposition, but who were clever per
formers on the ball field, would not be
helped and might be harmed by the
proposed plan.
