J. Macbeth A few upsets at the opening of the annual fall meeting of the Metro ^??n Jockey Club, which controls the Jamaica racetrack, yesterday aftensoon could not dim the illustrious name of Tommy Maher, the younsr ^vigorous but still unshaven superintendent of the course.

Upsets Are Numerous Becords were broken, records were notched and records were threatened at the opening of the fall meeting of th? Metropolitan Jockey Club at fair Jamale? yesterday afternoon. Unfor? tunately, the record breaking perform? ing witnessed the biggest upset of the afternoon. H. Wsterson's Brain? storm was the pearl of the fiat-headed bivalve. Everybody was astonished when HE took the measure of Mad Hatter, and in taking it clipped three fifths of a second off the track record for s mile and a sixteenth. Brainstorm, under a spirited ride by jockey B. Marinelli, gailoped the dis? tance in the remarkable time of 1:441-5, that shaded by three-fifths seconds the best previous time hung up jointly by the Westmount Stable's Sennlngs Park and the Quincy Stable's Rahvy on May 6 and 13, respectively, thii tame year. Brainstorm was one of the outsiders of th? field of a half dozen that con? tested this October Handicap, the opening day feature. The wise fish all thought Mad Hatter hod everything to himself and supported him lustily at T to 10. They believed there were no Lucky Hours in the race. But they iailea to remember that in trying to b?at Lucky Hour he had run himself blind. So tho race was on. Mtd Hatter skimmed through on the ralL and in the backstretch opened a lead of several lengths. But Mad Hat t?r stopped as if shot under his weigh! at the end of six furlongs. It was thtn Marinelli, with the contender eased up to him and laughed in hi: is? as he drew away through th? stretch to a ridiculously easy win ir retord time. Fred Burlew's IrisI Brigadier chucked it to Hephaistos a< ft? ?ad of a half mile. John Pau Jote?, which sky-rocketed to th< tlottii, couldn't work up an exercisi gallop ander the whip. Little Celt Outlueked Th? greatest cinch that ever lookei through ? bridle was spilled for a los wh?n Sandy McNaughton's Little Cel ran ?Kond to the Rancocas Stable' WmI in the third race, a dash of fsv m a half furlongs for maiden two rut-old?. Little Celt, backed fror 5tel to 7 to B> was almost knocke dews no less than three times durin tie race. The colt would have rompe MM despite early interference ha ?et August Belmont's Rock Botton which finished third, knocked him t He knee? turning into the horn stretch. Gantner got plenty of ai and got it summarily when he wen ?p to claim foul. Bessie Leighton was much the bes of the field ef eight cheap two-yeai olds that went to the post for th opening da?h, but had to be conter with second money. That is, Bess i was the best the way the race was rur Lady Rose, the favorite, ran to th outalde fence in taking the home tun which put Allie Ochs up into a win nine position. Bessie Leighton, mear while which had loen off poorlj closed with a rush, and but for Intel ierenee would have won in the stretel *'. '] wa,s> Homestretch got up an added a thrill to the finish.

F. Smith, President of the Southern Golf Association. He de? clared that the play-off of three hole? after Leo DiegeT, of New Orleans, and Abe Mitchell, of England, -were for the Becond time lied at the end of the ex? tra 36 holes was an illegal arrangement between tho Briton and the Louisiana pro. Mr. Smith pointed out that on that account the Southern Golf Asso ! ciation could not recognize either of them as champion. Mitchell and Diegel agreed to con? solidate first and Becond money and di? vido the |2,500 in equal parts as their share of the purs? when they were square at the completion of tho 86-hole play-off. The three-hole agreement was a pri? vate arrangement, without the sanc? tion of the Southern Golf Association, according to President Smith's state? ment. To definitely establish a claim to championship honors at least 18 holes should have been played, accord? ing to the statement made by President Smith. Warm Bouts Promised at Ebbets Field To-morrow Italian Joe Gans and Soldier Bart field, as well as all the other boxers scheduled to appear on the all-star card which will feature boxing night to-morrow night at Ebbets Field, will finish training to-day. This pair in? variably puts up a terrific battle. The affair between Willie Spencer and Sonny Smith is another that could be well worth the price of admission. A knock-out is expected when Eddie Brady clashes with Dutch Brandt in the third ten-round contest. The six round bout will bring together Wel don Wing, who hails from Portland, Ore., and Willie Garber, of Brooklyn. The show will be opened with n four round contpst between August Pisano and Joe Wright.

Fordham Goes Into Hard Training for Game With Rutgers Yesterday began a week of serious football work for the Fordham football candidates, for on Saturday the Ma? roon meets Rutgers, for the first time in years, at New Brunswick. Coach Frank Gargan is determined to have his men in the best possible shape. The men had things fairly easy yes? terday, in view of the hard game with Canisius on Saturday. A long black? board drill, in which Gargan instructed the men on some new plays; a short session at the tackling dummy and a long signal drill used up most of the afternoon. Before Friday Gargan hopes that he will have been able to bold three Bcrlmmages. He desires to have at least one of these with some outside aggregation, for he feels that ha does not obtain enough results from the usual scrimmaging of tho first and second teams. The scrubs usually know the signals or, at least, have a fair idea where the plays will be directed, and consequently give neither the backs a full test of their ability at carrying the ball nor the linemen a full oppor? tunity to perform their blocking or tackling duties. Gargan was satisfied with the show? ing of the men in the opening game with Can?3?us, though he had hoped for a little larger score. He felt that the men, though a bit green in some of the fine pointB of the game, had shown up well with regard to the fundamentals. ____-? A. A. Us Considers Control Of Women's Athletics Much will depend upon the report of a committee which has just been ap? pointed by William C. Prout, president of the A. A. U. of the United States, whether track and field athletics for women shall be included among the sports over which the A. A. U. claims jurisdiction. There has been a growing demand for the A. A. U. to take hold of women's track athletics, the ?ame as it did wom? en's swimming eight years ago, and place It on the same high plane, and President Prout yesterday appointed the following committee to consider the proposition of Amateur Athletic Union participation or control in ath? letics for women: Dr. William Burdick, Baltimore, chairman; L. di Benedetto, New Orleans; W. A. Stecke, Philadel? phia; Roy E. Moore, New York;/L. S. Hill, Albany, Seward Simons, Los An? geles; Dr. A. W. Rose, Boston; Mrs. ?. Fullard-Leo, Honolulu; Paul R. Jor? dan, Indianapolis; G. P.

(Sh wt ?wntr ?warly. but Ml McGraw Will Face Problem of Overcoming Superior Pitching Veteran Manager of Giants Is Up Against Hardest Assignment of His Conquering Career, Says Rice; Scott and McQuillan May Come Through By Grantland Rice John J. McGraw, veteran manager of more than three thousand ball frames, with eight pennants fluttering from his wigwam, ig now up against the hardest assignment of his long and conquering career. Almost upon tho eve of battle McGraw is peering intently through the fogs of heavy doubt for a pitching staff that can match the pitching power of the Yankees, who in this vital respect have him outdistanced by a margin of 2 or 3 to 1, a crushing margin against an enemy that is almost as strong in every other wav. $ If you care to peer back through the records you will find that those pitch? ers who have worked well through the season for a pennant winning combi? nation usually respond with increased skill and cunning when the big series arrives. The Yankees have at least three stars who havo been working at top speed all the year in Bush, Shawkey and Hoyt, with Carl Mays, another star veteran, only n stride behind. As a rule, most world series managers have been confronted with the problem of beating: one or two stars and then tearing the weaker members into ?hreds. But on this occasion the Giants must step out against great pitching every game, and when they have fin? ished the afternoon with one expert sniper they will be immediately con? fronted by another just about as good. The Case of Ed. Rommel Wo might use this 1-ono illustration to show what a star pitcher means for any club. Consider Ed Rommel, of the Philadelphia Athletics. This club, out? side of Rommel, would be well down bo low .400. But considering only those games in which Rommel worked, the average leaps up above .600, almost to a pennant winning clip. On the days when Rommal worked the Athletics, with only second division talent, were as hard to stop as any ball club in the game. The Giants can hit. But so could tho St. Louis Browns with such heavy artillery as Sisier, Williams, etc., hang? ing around the park. But not even the keen-eyed, free hitting Browns could break down the Yankee pitching bar? rier in quest of the title. The Giants, with all their hitting ability, will find Bush, Shawkey, Hoyt and Mays shoving a lot of stuff in their general direction that no club can hit with any consistency. Knowing this, McGraw's problem will be to find enough good pitching from a rather shaky staff to match against the strongest staff in baseball. No wonder the leader who has been solving baseball problems for over twenty-five years is wondering just how he can match a big gamble against an almost certainty. McGraw knows that he must get four well pitched games, and possibly five or six from the series to have an even break. A Formidable Array There is always the bare chance that the other staff may slip and stumble, but neither Mays or Hoyt gave any ground last fall. It took great pitching to beat them on the days they lost and this time they will be flanked by Bush and Shawkey, so if one should begin to flutter under fire there will be another strong and accurate right arm only a few yards away. McGraw can look for two good games from Arthur Nehf, who helped to sup? press the Yankees last fall. There is the possibility that Jess Barnes may resume where he left off in the act of pitching the Yankees to death. But this is no certainty and the rest of It is something the Giant leader must pass along to tho breaks of battle. The Yankees have complete confidence in their great pitching staff, and have added hopes of hitting Giant pitchers hard enough to get a big jump from the start. McGraw, in his entire career, has never faced a sortes with so much un? certain pitching to carry him through, nor with finer pitching to beat. In 1905 he had Mathewson and Mc Ginity primed. From 1911 through 1913 he had Mathewson, Tesreau' and Mar quard most of the way. He was a bit shy of talent in 1916 when the White Sox stopped him, but a year ago he had Nehf and Douglas anchored in front of Yankee bats with Barnes in reserve. And Douglas accounted for the two victories that left the Giants on top. Unknown May Flash Scott and McQuillan may dash for? ward as Babe Adams, almost unknown, did against Detroit in 1909, but it isn't often that an outsider predominates with any extended pitching mastery in one of these big-money October turns. One might approach this series from nineteen separate avenues and direc? tions, but at the finish it all gets back to the matter or rival pitching, where the Yankees stand upon firm ground and the Giants are struggling in the whirlpool. Considering the strength of tho two ball clubs in all other departments the baffling dope has no reason for leaving the box. Whatever may happen later on to upset any calculations, this is where all calculations should be made. The race may not be the swif,t, but that at least is where to look. If McGraw can steer his machine through the breakers and the shoals ahead, by all the towering trouble in his path, he will have accomplished the greatest managerial feat of his career. For it looks now as if he will be forced to do a world of shifting around the box to meet various predicaments and get full value out of a much weaker looking staff.

Dempsey Gives Johnson Advice And Workout Heavyweight Champion Boxes With Coast Prospect and Shows Amazing Form By Jack Lawrence Jack Dempsey, bubbling over with pep and apparently in quite as (food condition as ho was inora than a year ago when h? bowled over Gtcrge-i^Ear pentier at Boyle's Thirty Aero?, hoxod three exhilarating rounds ?yesttrday afternoon at Stillman's gymnasium with Floyd.Johnson, the handsomo -?rid inexperienced heavyweight, who meets Bob Martin in the star bout of fifteen rounds at Madison Square Garden next Friday night. Dempsey not only boxed with John? son, but imparted to the heavyv.-Bight youngster a lot of valuable advice. Some of this was given between the rounds, but most of it was handed out during the hour that tho two spent together in tho room in which both dressed. Dempsey has taken a per? sonal interest #in Floyd Johnson and evidently believes him to be an ex? cellent prospect in the division ovci which he reigns supreme. . ? Johnson'.? showing yesterday was im? pressive enough, but the stuff thai Demp6ey unbuttoned for the bencftl cf more than 600 spectators was little short of amazing. The champior stepped about as though he had beer in training for the last six weeks. His speed apparently has increased rathei than diminished, and his hitting power although it was obviously subdued yes terday, is as great as ever. Any on< doubting this need only ask Floy< Johnson, who felt the thud of severa hard drives before the little act ii Stillman's was finished. / If Dempsey to-day is carrying : pound of excess flesh it was not notice able yesterday afternoon. Ho was lith< and fast and catlike in his movements Frank Coultry, a fine judge of fighters probably voiced the sentiment of thi crowd when he remarked: "What < man Dempsey is!"
