Many Scratches Mar Racing at Empire City Track
Shoal, Winner
Of Sprightful,
Is Disqualified
(hilv Three Juveniles Take
Part in Feature Event;
Komanv Proves the Bext
By W. J. Macbeth
If oar friend, St. Swithin, keens up
hia grouch much longer the directors
pf the Empire City Racing Association
ni ght make :i liit by turning the- track
into an aquarium and pacing cattish
0ver the various distances now as?
signed 7" the thoroughbreds. One
could scarcely call yesterday's compe?
titions of alleged speed racing by any
stretch < ' the imagination. At best il
was wading. Then- is no footing left
vvhatev< r.
:, in going to the post the thor
oughbreds were in danger of miring
and moro than one favorite was
"bogged" at tho start between the
and Mars Cassidy'a impatient
indifference. St. Swithin's grouch has
on thai of Cftssidy as the mer?
ry raindrops pitter, patter down.
It has com..' to be the practice of
late for horsemen to sidestep every
issue pos ible where they believe they
have no act- in the hole. Wholesale
scratching has marred the racing of
all the metropolitan tracks this Reason.
But it i- mained for yesterday to de?
velop tho highwat&r mark of the evil.
In the first race a field of nineteen vas
Kcratched down to a puny four; nnd
the four eventually left possessed abso?
lutely nothing whatever of class.
Fifteen scratches out of nineteen
named overnight seems an insult to an
intelligent public.
, Big Crowd Disappointed
Ten thousand went up to Empire
City yesterday afternoon expecting
some sort of competition. In two of
:he races three horses only went to the
h09t. In two others only four faced
the starter. There might have been
sumo excuse for the indifference of
- men toward tho sporting public
had it been a case of unexpected rain.
Bui every horseman knew when he
made his nominations Saturday after?
noon just what sort of track ho could
. xpect Monday.
7:7?L'i: trainer; and owners as Sam
t-Iildreth und ''-T. V. Bronner undoubted?
ly were mostly to blame for the record
- ? scratching in tho opening
event. In this selling race at a mile
and seventy yards such good horses as
H Ireth's Poacher and Bronner's Lu?
cius were entered under valuations of
$400 each. A cheaper lot of horses
were, many of them, entered at figures
n I igh as ?1,000. And the skates, not
being able to concede the implicated
it. had to scratch as a matter of
B preservation. Means should be
fi und m some way to protect the small
hnrse owner against the rich one who
takes advantage of such races to ox
ploil good thoroughbreds for betting
purposes. Jn the end Poacher and Lu
n both were scotched, but by that
ist of the field had been chased
o the tall and uncut.
The Sprightful .Selling Stakes for
$2,000 for two-year-olds, at about si:-:
furlongs, was the feature race of yes?
terday's programme. It proved one of
the most disappointing contests of the
year. G. W. Forman's Shop], ridden
by C. Kummer, was disqualified, after
winning by a length from R. H. McC.
Potter's Romany. The disqualification
was merited, as well as the five days'
ispi the stewards handed

Or.!y three of the juveniles answered
Shoal, Romany and the

Whether tho national singles 'awn
tennis championship goes to an Aus?
tralian, a Japanese or to one of our
own court stars, when the. great tour?
nament on tlu* turf courts of the West
Side Tennis Club at Korest Hills is
played next month, of one thing we
may he certain it will be one ol the
greatest national tourneys in the his?
tory of the game.
I cannot recall when the champion?
ship has been such an opon affair as
tiiis year. In days gone by some "one
or two players have always stood out
clearly above the other contenders for
the crown. Perhaps it: was Lamed, >r
! McLoughlin, or Williams, or Johnston
who showed indications a few weeks
before the start of the blue ribbon
event of our courts of being primed Cor
the greatest test of the season.
But there is no such condition to
guide us this time. Tin* world war has
so upset thing, that it, is almost im?
possible to tell what player is going
to play uti to form and what one \<
! going to fail down. And then the vis
; iting Australians Brookes, Patterson,
Lycett and Thomas how will they com?
pete with our own best? And [chiya
Kumagae, a more dangerous seeker
after the national title to-day than
( when he first stirred the United States
in 1910 how close will lie come to de?
throning tin* American leaders?
These are questions that can only be
answered when the contenders clash on
the West Side courts. It may be of
course, that between now and the open?
ing of tho national singles tourney, on
I August 25, some player will strike a
winning pace that will carry every?
thing before him and so far outclass
! his rivals as to remove almost all doubt
as to his chances in the big event. I'.wt
so far nothing of the kind has hap?
pened, nor does it seem likely to.
There is also this to be taken into
consideration when trying to figure out
the man who has the best chance of
.battling his way successfully through
'the notable field at Forest Hills?
namely, that players who are now at
the very top of their game may sud
! denly go stale on the eve of the r.a
1 tional tourney and thus spoil their
hopes of triumph.
As matters stand at this writing, I
i am inclined to place William M. John?
ston, of California, the new national
clay court champion, and Kumagae,
who won his third successive New York
? State title at Utica on Saturday, in the
very front ran',, of ci ntenders. I have
not' seen Richard N'orris Williams, 2d,
. in tournament play this season, nor do
I know the relative strength of the
mighty Brookes and young Patterson,
: who conquered tlu* "old master" at
Wimbledon a few weeks ago in the
all-England championship; therefore 1
do not feel like weighing their chances
too much in detail.
But as regards Johnston particu?
larly, whom 1 have watched closely
on the courts for the last two weeks,
there is more basis for analyzing his
play. The. little Californian has been
developing along slow but sure, lines.
until on Saturday last at Chicago he
flashed in real championship form.
Never was his forehand drive going at
a more wicked pace, and rarely did he
show so well in his overhand volley?
ing at the not.
All the olden severity was there,
backed up by splendid control, and in
addition the little man from the coast
is in superb physical condition at
present and full of that, tremendous
fighting spirit that carried him to the
height of the ladder in 1916.
Kumagae's gam?? needs no praise at
my hands, as nil who have watched
his unbroken string of victories dur
ing the last few weeks can bear testi
mony. Voshell, Tilden and Murray,
among others, have already fallen
victims to his terrific hitting, great
court covering and deadly accuracy. It
is probable, however, that Kumagae's
game will lose something of its speed
when transferred to the turf courts,
whereas Johnston is just as formidable
on tho softer surface.
Williams, according to reports, is
coming along well, evidently planning
his campaign with the single purpose
of being at top form during the week
of August 25. If he succeeds in doing
this lie is quite capable of repeating
his great triumphs of 1914 and 1916,
but he is a less reliable player than
Johnston when it comes to picking the
possible winner of the national honors.
If Brookes was near his last Davis
Cup form when ho succumbed to
Gerald Patterson at Wimbledon last
n\pnth, then we indeed have cause for
worry as to the safety of the cham?
pionship. But I have heard nothing
yet to indicate that this latest Aus?
tralian sensation is of such formidable
timbre, and it does not seem humanly
possible that Brookes can still be the
master that he was some five or six
years ago. Age must have dulled his
speed, if not his skill.
McLoughlin, I understand, is goln?**
to make a tremendous effort to regain
the title he so notably held, and has
shown great possibilities thus far; but
we will have to wait until we see the
"Comet" in action on Eastern courts,
? As for Tilden. Murray, Alexander
the other Australians, and the rest of
our own "first ten'" players, 1 will
weigh their chances in succeedinp
articles.

Varuna Winner
Of Big Event
At Larchmont
Commodore Ford's Mar?
coni-Equipped Sloop
Easily Beats Other New
"O" Type Yachts
LARCHMONT MANOR, N. Y., July
21.?.Series racing for Class K and un?
der was the programme for the second
day of the resumption of the annual
race week of the Larchmont Yacht Club
here to-day, when forty-four yachts,
divided into the usual classes, took
part in one of the best brushes held
on Long Island Sound in years.
There was not one really good start
during the entire day. Possibly the
yachtsmen thought the committee was
going to postpone the start on account
of the rain, or that it was more com?
fortable inside the breakwater than out
on the rolling waters of the ?Sound. Be
that as it may, each division saw more
than one yacht starting anywhere from
five to fifteen minutes late.
The lirst appearance of the new "0"
yachts during race week was tho feat?
ure of the regntta. The division was
to have been the first to start. When
their signal was set the three big'
sloops were still working their way out
of the harbor. Butler Whiting, at the
helm of Commodore James B. Ford's
Varuna, was the first to reach the
starting line, and started away on his
twenty-mile race along with the thirty
footers of the New York Yacht Club.
Philip H. Johnson's Grey Dawn was
the second yacht awai*. followed by J.
F. Feder's Nimbus. The Satter craft was
sailed by Edward Fish, while her owner
was at the helm of the Grey Dawn.
There was almost five minutes between
the start of the lirst and the last yacht
of the division.
The course chosen By the committee
gavo the big sloops a reach on the
starboard tack from the starting line
to a mark off Greenwieh Point. Here
the yachts went on the wind for a
beat across the ?Sound to Oak Xeck.
A broad reach brought them home.
With her Marconi ri;i towering high
into the leaden sky, Commodore Ford's
Varuna came sweeping across the fin?
ish line at 5:07:42, having taken 2:52:42
to sail the twenty-mile course. Grey
Dawn finished second at 5:10:21, just
two minutes and thirty-nine seconds
astern of the winner. Then came Nim?
bus at 5:12:05. Commodore Ford saw
his yacht win from the committee
boat. It was the first race won by
the Marconi rigged yacht this season,
although the craft did the best work
in the informal brushes during the
season of 1017.
T. S. Clarke, a Poly Prep schoolboy,
won among the thirty-footers of the
New York Yacht Club. His Minx cov?
ered a l?a4 mile course, mude up of
practically the same sailing conditions
as the thirty-ninc-footers, with the ex?
ception that the last leg was a run, in
2:.'i_:,17. Adios, the property of Fred
Richards, was second, 3:49 astern of
the winning yacht.
Alan Clarke, a brother of the owner
of the Minx, who also is a Poly Prep
boy, finished second in Class" I'. He
sailed his Feather and lost by 2:T>2 to
Mingo, the property of 11. T. Hornidge.

Reported in Alliance

was signed by Vittorio Orlando, who
retired as Italian Premier some time
ago. The signatory for Rumania was
declared to be Premier Bratianq^
