DSEF?ELD ADVERTISER , ;N?v24th, 1909..;*-; ??e SPORTING WORLD , Johnny Evers May Quit. Keports are 'now in circulation that Johnny Evers, the Chicago National's star second b?s?inan, has played his last game with the Cubs. In a letter received by a Chicago friend recently Evers declared posi tively that, he would not play with the world's champions next season and JOHNNY EVERS,. STAR SECOND SACKER OF. CHICAGO NATIONALS. that he would hot care if he never saw another baseball. To prove he ls go ing to quit, Evers says it is his inten tion to ask- Charles W. Murphy for such a mighty stipend that the presi dent of the world's champions will not ask him to return. Evers' reason for giving up the game is that he has busi ness prospects which will require his attention and pay him better than staying in baseball. . Cy Young Says He Will Stick Downcast over' the trade whereby Lou Criger, his old catcher, goes to the St Eouis^ Americans and Spencer to ? Boston, but stating that he has no in tention of retiring' because of the change, Cy Young, Boston's "grand old man," comes out in an interview re cently regarding the deal. Cy said that he' could hardly realize that Criger' was to leave and that Spencer would be his receiver next year. ' "I have pitched to Lou so long that he seems a part of me," said he, "and I am positire nel one will suffer more. from his Aim?Wii?. *-~?-- ~ I ?ts tb So con ?Jneve nais w Yeran will re * winds i for me my goo? _me.

Kalamazoo, Mich., is planning to give a great combination trotting and pacing meeting in 1909, similar to the one of 1908, and will endeavor to retain its dates in both the. grand -and; great western circuits. It ls probable that the first week of August will be asked for " in the ?two associations, and if Kalamazoo is so far recognized there is little doubt 'that this harness racing meeting will, be one of the greatest given in America. ' Michigan horsemen generally recog nize that th? coming meeting, .of. the~ great western will be one of the most important held by that organization in years, and it is believed that a special effort will be made to offer such in ducements to-racers of harness horses that many will remain in the weat with their stables' and n?f race' down the grand circuit. Georgetown May Drop Crev/. While nc definite decision bas been reached as to whether Georgetown will have a crew at Poughkeepsie, N. Y.\ next year, there Is every reason for believing that the Washington institu tion will abandon this expensive fea ture of its athletics. The Georgetown athletic fund is in a weakened condi tion. The football season lulled to show the usual profits, and it was on this that Manaor La Platte depended for the money : necessary to have a crew next season. Britt and Summers to Fight A?ain. Jimmy Britt of America is to have another tryout; in London to prove whether or not ^is recent victory over Johnny Summers was a fluke. ,^'The men have ' beep/ rematched-'to' battle before the National Athletic club Feb. 22, and ? purse of ?800, or $4,000 in American money, has been hiing up. Britt will prolong his stay in England to meet the engagement. -4 . General Watts, 2:06%, Not to Race. It has been announced ,that General C. C.
