PAGE TWO N SPORT CHAT Judging from the way thing: went this year, inter-town base bill and football games, which have always up to this year beer held in connection with the Ex hibition. are still better and more popular attractions in the way of outside sport at the Fair tha-are such innovations as the St am pede. No other conclusion car be drawn from the fact that on Friday afternoon, which was not too bad from the weather standpoint, less than half a dozen people turned out for the stampede. Never, even in the rain has inter-town baseball or football games fallen so flat. It i-generally hoped in sporting circles that such games will be resumed next year. It has been so customary to hold them tha they are now expected by th public with which they have always proven popular. Next year it might also be well to give better supervision to the native football series. The Indians were disappointed this year that neither series were finished. Of course, the unfavorable weather upset things generally and the sports and attractions committee of the Fair cannot be held responsible for that. George Young came back, spur red on by the deafening cheers of almost 200.000 wildly enthusiastic spectators, the hero of CataJina stroked his way through the waters of Lake Ontario to a thrilling victory over Norman , Ross, Chicago, in a three-and-one eighth mile swim off the Canadian Nation exhibition waterfront. After his defeats in the Wrigley swims this year and last. Young's marvellous exhibition of swimming prowess reinstated him in the affections of his fellow townsmen. Mendel I Burditt another Torontonian came third in the race, which was opened to the 14 swimmers who received gratuities from the exhibition for their showing in the 15-mile marathon.
