MEADOWBROOKTRIUMPHS
Ranelagh Defeated in Finals for
Point Judith Polo Cups.
[By. Telegraph to The Tribune.]
Xarriuransett \ Pier. R. i., Aug . 20 -By
splendid hitting, and riding the Interna
tional four of Meadow Brook won the final
polo match for the Point' Judith cups on
the field of the Point Judith Polo Club to
day. They defeated the Ranela^h team by
;the net score of 10^ goals to 414 goal*. ; The
result was little short of astounding, as the
English players were favored for' the tro
■phies. .'■■■ -. . „ • ■
Another sensation was In store for the
polo folio-wine:, however, for again the Eng
lish players were defeated in the. semi-final
lor the Xarrag-ansett cups, as Bryn Maw:
defeated the Perroquets by the net score
of 10*4 goals to 5^ goals".-'. At \ the end of
the match, which Meadow Brook won. Mrs.'
Payne Whitney presented the trophies to
the winning team... ".-''■ ■• r..\-- \--< ,j
Under the Meadow Brook colors Monte'
IVaterhury played at No: 2 as he has never!
before played in : this . country. Through
out the first four •periods he was in full
chase of the ball all the time. ! He kept
crossing It from side to side with Devereux
Milburn. so that together they carried it up
the field for Waterbury's sure hitting for
goals.
The Britishers could not check them and
the gallops were fast and furious. Larry
Waterbury rode R. Grenfell off so handily
that the famous Englishman was continu
ally kept out of the play.
The most remunerative periods for the
Americans were the second, third and
fourth, during which they tallied seven
goals. Then they proceeded to loaf and
tantalize the Englishmen by allowing them
almost to get a goal and then take the ball
away from them. In one period Monte
Waterbury scored briliantly by hitting the
ball away when within ten feet of the Brit
ishers' goal, and then, after a chase, he
•:•■:• a carry three-quarters the length- of
the field and scored.
In the other match the Englishmen were
slow, although Harry Rich aid all he could
to inspire them by his daring horseman
ship. They turned badly on the ball and
■were outplayed at every point.
Next week the open championship will
hold the field, the teams bringing together
all of the famous players or this country.

NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUNE. SUNDAY, AUGUST 21, 1910.
Wants \7niform 'Road System
Government Delegate to Road Congress Pro
poses New Plan.
"The most potent factor for the future
development and success of the automobile
Industry and Its allied interests In" this
country is the necessity of uniformity and
need of standardization in' the construction
of new roads as well as the proper main- !
tenance of them," was the statement made
by Joseph W. Jones,' the well known auto
mobilist, who returned on "Wednesday last ,
from a three months' absence in Europe, !
having covered about five thousand miles ]
in - touring through, all of , the principal !
countries on the Continent. .
As a special agent of the Department of j
Agriculture of the United , States govern- !
ment,' Mr. Jones, who is also a director of j
the Touring Club of America, was dele- j
gated to represent' the government at the
second International Road Congress, held
at • Brussels a fortnight ago, and was en
thusiastic in .his praise of the . success of j
the convention, which was attended by
the representatives of all the countries in- |
terested in road improvement.
; "One of the great lessons of the Inter- |
national Road Congress," said Mr, Jones, ,
"is the absolute necessity for the introduc- j
tion of a uniform system of road building
throughout . the United States similar to
the systems which have been adopted in i
France and Great Britain, where the high- \
ways decrease In width, according to the i
importance of the traffic. .
"From my observation, the roads i in this i
country, especially throughout the South,
are too -wide and lack the requisite depth
of foundation necessary to insure perma
nency. The idea that some highway en
gineers, have of simply laying a foundation
of a few inches in depth is ' altogether
wrong, and the roads so , constructed are
expensive to maintain and must be rebuilt
in a short time. I consider that the Eng- j
lish roads, although the narrowest, are the
best roads over which I toured in Europe, !
especially as the surface was thoroughly ;
tarred and covered with a light coating of
sand." "' *
WHITE MOUNTAINS GOLF
Annuai Amateur Tournament Will
Be Held This Week.
Many New Yorkers have entered for the
annual amateur golf championship tourna
ment of the White Mountains, to be held
over the Wiumbek links, at Jefferson, N.
H.. on August 25, 26 and 27. Prominent
among the metropolitan amateurs already
on hand are L. P. Myers, of St. Andrews;
B. S. Bottome, of Fox Hills, and Tonzo
Sauvage, of the Essex County Country
Club. Brice S. Evans, the far driver from
Brae Burn, lias also sent in his name.
The first day will be devoted to the medal
play testing round, and a cup will be
awarded to the person returning the best
score. Prizes have also been provided for
the first three sixteens. There is likewise a
runner-up cup in the first division, and on
Saturday there will be the customary
thirty-six hole medal play handicap, with
prizes for the best gross and net scores.
In a recent putting competition for prizes
presented by Mrs. B. S. Bottome flrst honors
among the men were won by H. S. Strickbe,
of New York, while Mrs. Howard Coonley,
of Chicago, gained the women's trophy.
Strickbe had a score of 42 and Mrs. Con
iey 46.
Thanks to the work accomplished by a
new motor roller, the course never appeared
in better condition than at present. The
greens, always good, are also at their best.
Consequently, cards on the low side are
expected when the amateurs get started in
the big tournament on Thursday. The early

definite has been decided upon as yet. The
secretary also says:
"If the Country Club wishes to hold such
a competition it is at perfect liberty to do
so. as an invitation affair, but if the event
is liable to cause any sectional feeling. I
can assure the golfers of the United States
that the Country Club will accede to the
wisriee of the United States Golf Associa
tion and cancel any such event."

"The Royal Automobile Club of Great
Britain, the Automobile Association of
London and the Touring Club of France
are all actively identified in this good
roads movement, are conducting ex
haustive experiments in ,the construction
of an improved type of roadbed and have
the co-operation of their respective gov
ernments in this splendid work.
"Through the efforts of the officials ol
the Touring Club of France a splendid new
road, three hundred miles in length along
the Riveria. in Southern France, is now
being completed, and will be the finest
stretch of roadway in the world. The
plan adopted abroad provides for the erec
tion of permanent signposts by the gov
ernment, giving the distances and the
names of the cities and villages as well
as indicating dangerous turns and cross
ings.
"The new road.-, in Great Britain are as
smooth as a billiard table, and although
the surface had been treated with a thin
c.ating of tar the construction had been
co thorough that huge traction engines
drawing cars loaded with stone and gravel
have no noticeable effect upon them
••What is required in America, I believe,
is the organization of a. road congress,
similar to that which has been held an
nually abroad. This congress should com
prise ell of the highway commissioners
and road engineers of the various states
and municipalities, and I think that Logan
Waller Page, the director of the l.'nited
States office of public roads at Washing
ton would be agreeable to assisting in the
organization and conduct of such a con
gress, whereat an interchange of ideas
upon all subjects pertaining to the high
ways, their construction and maintenance
could be discussed to the advantage of
every state, county and city, of which
there are many spending millions of dol
lars each year for the improvement ol
their highways."
TALENT AT EMPIRE CITY
i Famous Trotters and Drivers
Gather for Grand Circuit.
Fast trotting horses from all over the
United States and Canada, and even from
Europe are assembled at the Empire City
I track, near Tankers, for the New York
i Grand Circuit meeting, which Is to open
there on Tuesday with the first Futurity
for harness horses that has ever been seen
, hereabouts. The track where the runners
• were In possession until a few weeks ago
will be swarming with light harness horses
this morning and again to-morrow, taking
their last sharpening-up work for the Grand
j Circuit meeting. The Trotting Horse Breed
ers' Club will throw open the clubhouse to
the public to-day, and horsemen who
usually visit the Speedway to see the Sun
day morning brushes will doubtless make
the Empire track their rendezvous.
Among the prominent professional reins
men whose strings are on hand for the
meeting are Ed Geers, who drove his first
race in New York at old Fleet wood Park
more than thirty years ago; Robert Proc
tor, the man who brought out Uhlan, 1:58%,
and who now trains for W. C. Brown, pres
ident of the New York Central Railroad;
Walter R. Cox. of New Hampshire; Thomas
W. Murphy, of Glen Cove, Long Island,
who headed the list of winning drivers on
the Grand Circuit last year; Alonzo Mc-
Donald, driver of Allen Winter. 2:«! i, when
he won the $50,000 handicap for trotters at
Boston two years ago, John H. Dickerson,
who drove the famous pacer Joe Patchen
j to his record of 2:01 V*; W. J. Andrews,
j trainer and driver of Hamburg Belle. 2:01 i*;
I John R. Gentry, 2:00^. and Mascot, 2:04;
A. P. McDonald, of Albany, who drove Ma
jor Delmar a mile in 1:59% in the wake of
a wind shield at the Empire track in 1903;
Ramey Macey, the nineteen-year-old Grand
Circuit driver, who trains the Futurity
colt Colorado E., credited with a public
trial of 2:06 1 -4, which is faster than , the
world's record, and D. J. McClary, who
drove Star Pointer, 1:59^, the first harness
! horse to beat two minutes.
Few trotting races ever seen in New
York have attracted so much attention and
excited such keen interest as the $15,000
Matron Futurity, which is to be the feature
of the opening day of the meeting. This
race will • bring together for the first time
the fastest two three-year-olds the trotting
turf has ever seen, and the field as a whole
is perhaps the best that has yet started.
Colorado E. has trotted half a mile in
lM\i; Native Belle, 2:OT?i, the entry of Ed
ward Thompson, of Northport, Long Island,
holds the world's reaord for two-year-olds
and is credited with ability to beat 2:05.
while Emily Ellen, the unbeaten winner of
the $15,000 Horsemen's Futurity; W. B.
Dickerman'e Eva Bellini, Robert Goelet's
Eva Tanguay and W. C. Brown's Bergen
are formidable In any company.
Another notable event on the programme
of the opening, day Is the $2,500 Speedway
Stake for trotters of the 2:16 class, to
wagon, amateurs to drive. There are forty
entries, an«"l the race will be trotted in
three divisions.
The Harvester, holder of the worlds rec
ord for trotting stallions, will start in the
free-for-all race, on Wednesday, and it is
expected that Ed Geers will drive him to
beat his Buffalo mark of 2:02. Sonoma Girl,
2:O3Vi, owned by Miss Lotta Crabtree, of
Boston, and Jack Leyburn, 2:04 and 2:04%.
owned by Senator James P. McNichol, of
Philadelphia, have been entered in the
free-for-all, and it is expected that The
Harvester's •• old rival, Bob Douglas, 2:06%,
will also start.
GREAT DRIVERS TO MEET
Oldfield and Robertson Matched
in Races Next Week.
Two of the foremost track drivers in the |
world, Barney Oldfield, the veteran of the |
automobile racing sport in America, and
George Robertson, are the first entrants
in the Brighton Beach meet scheduled for
September 3 and 5, the latter date being
Labor Day.
Oldfleld. though having been at the steer
ing wheel for nine years, and bearing many
scars of accidents on the track, has driven
In the most remarkable form of his career
during the last year, his greatest achieve
ment being the world's speed record made
on the Florida Beach last March with his !
'Blltzen" Benz. Oldneld has not driven !
a. racing car in the metropolitan district
in six years, and his reappearance will re- !
call the pioneer automobile racing days at '
the Empire City track.
George Robertson is looked on as the
logical successor to Oldneld when the old- '■
timer loses the title to a younger man, as j
he must some day do The two have never
met in the same race, and each has the
greatest respect for the ability and daring
|of the other. From a sporting point of
view the automobile racing championship
is the only title- that remains In doubt. In ;
prizefighting, football, baseball and all ,
other forms of sport there is no doubt as
to where, the championships belong. But |
not until Robertson and Oldneld decide
their differences can the speed king crown
bo awarded the rightful owner.
AH races in which these two great driv
ers meet at Brighton Beach will be open
to the world. There will be no closed mutch '
events between the two. More liberal cash S
prizes than have been previously awarded i
winners of the same class of races have {
been hung up-f or. the- meet.
. -Nor will the events in which the pair j
meet be Bhort sprints of two or three miles. !
The contract which promoter Dan Smith, j
of the Brighton Beach Motor Speed Associa
tion, has signed by Oldfleld and Robert
son- calls for them to 'participate against
each j other and all comers ' in two . ten
mile events and two one-hour races. • -,--._-
MORE VANDERBILT ENTRIES
Two Simplex Cars Are Added to
the List
William K. Vanderbilt. Jr.. president of
the Motpr Cups Holding Company, an
nounces th© receipt of an entry of another
Simplex car for the Vanderbilt Cup race,
which will be held on the Long: Island
Motor Parkway on Saturday. October 1.
The car is entered by the Simplex Automo
bile Company, of New York, and will be
driven by Ralph E. Beardsley. The car is
a 1911 model, rated at 5" horsepower, with
a bore and stroke of 5.% inches.
Besrdsley. who recently left the ranks of
the amateur drivers to become a profession
al, has been doing brilliant work at hill
climbs and track races the last few months,
notably at Plainfleld and Ostining and at
the July Brighton Beach meet, where he
won a hotly contested race. Iceland
Mitchell will pilot the other Simplex entry.
Everybody who Is Interested either in the
Vanderbilt Cup or Grand Prize event id
pleased to know that the start of both
races will be at daybreak. Just as soon
after dawn as the fog lifts to make driving
safe the forty-odd entries will line up at
the starting- mark and be sent on their way
at fifteen or twenty second intervals. The
last two Vanderbilt Cup races have had
mid-morning starts, which have been re
sponsible for the small attendance.
Faster time than ever before is expected
In these two races. The surface is smoother
this year than it was last October, due to
the touring done on the parkway this sea
son. The continued driving has worn the
cement surface quite smooth, and this will
mean less tire trouble in the race than
ev^r before. Foreign drivers entered for
the Grand Prize race- sre at work already
tuning up their cars and getting themselves
into proper physical condition for the big
event.
Hemery is busy getting the Benz car?
into shape at the Mannheim. Germany, fac
tory. .Nazzaro, at the Fiat factory, in
Turin. Italy, is supervising the work on
the Fiat cars, while on this side of the
water practically every factory and
entrant expecting to enter either of the big
races are devoting njuch time and money
testing out and improving their cars.
A number of the entrants already have
obtained rficing quarters in barns and sheds
at points accessible to the parkway. In a
few weeks these quarters will be converted
into temporary garaget, and some will re
semble automobile factories in a miniature
way.
The entry of a 30-horsepower Cole by
the Colt-Stratton Company, of New York,
in the Magsapeqna Sweepstakes. is
also announced by Mr. YanderbfH. The
sweepstakes will also be run on Saturday.
October 1. The Cole entry is a four-cylinder
1910 flyer, and will be driven by "Bill" Endl
cott. a Western driver, who has been ft
successful contender in many contests re
cently.

GOLFING BY MOONLIGHT
A. J. Watson Gives Remarkable
Exhibition at Ounwoodie.
PLAYS 18-HOLE ROUND IN 2\
Without Losing- Ball He Finishes
Course in Two Hours and
Ten Minutes.
Probably the most rem*rtatb!e exhlbit!rr»
of golfing under difficulties was given «-n
Friday night by A. J. Watson, of the Dur;
woodie Country Club, who played an
eighteen-hole round over the Dunwoodie
course by moonlight in S4 strokes.
Mr. Watson started from the flrst tee at
R:3-j p. m., and finished the entire round In
two hours and ten minutes About twenty
flv« interested dub members followed th»
play, some of them helping the four profes
sional caddifs who had been engaged to
follow the ball.
No one who has not tried to play golf by
the light or the moon can realize its diffi
culties. There are a thousand chances to
lose the ball. Even in the brightest moon
light it is impossible to see the ball in
flight. The only method of following It i 3
by sound. Th«; caddies and gallery scatter
out in front of the player and listen for the
ball to drop after they heir It click from
the Impact of the club. Mr. Watson was
particularly fortunate in not losing Mi ball
once, his greatest luck In this regard belnsr
on the drive from the thirteenth tee. SIM
ball crashed into a tree at the edge of the
woods and rebounded to the edge of th©
fair green on th« opposite side of th*i
course.
The Dunwoodie course is unusually hilly
and difficult, the bogie is 30 and the won
derful moonlight score of 84 will be ap
preciated by golfers all over the country.
Few players ever get below 80 on the
course by daylight— Mr. Watson's best <2ay
round this year Is 73. About a year a.^o
Mr. "Watson made a similar moonlight at
tempt, making a 92. which was regarded as
phenomenal.
The start on Friday night was auspicious.
Playing from the first tee with a mid-Iron.
Mr. Watson laid the ball on the green
about ten feet from the cup. He holed
out on his second, making the hole In ' ■>• »
strokes under bogie. The second hole was
2. par four. On the third a short second
shot and three puts on the green result c-<l
in a seven. On the fifth and sixth' hole.*
Mr. Watson's drives were close to two bun
dred yards. Aside from the third hole, thu
ninth was the only one at which there vaj
much overs-coring — here the play 13 all up
hill. Mr. Watson should have had a i>,
.but an overapproach put him in the rough
just beyond the green, from which place
he took three puts. He was out in 41.
Coming in, Mr. Watson played a more
even and more accurate game than most
of the members can play by daylight- Ha
Ksi-1 fHe os, a t>. a 4 and a 3. Hi*
5 on the last hole (six hundred yards)
was one below par. The drive, was fully
two hundred yards, but the ball rested in
a hanging lie. Wataon in attempting to
get it cut with distance almost missed his
second shot, getting not more than fifty
yards. His third, however, was a magnifi
cent recovery and his fourth landed or the
edge of the green. By this time several
members had come out from the clubhouse
to see the finish, and. with the m sur
rounded, Watson holed out the fifty-foot
put.
The score in detail follows.
