ROAMER MAINTAINS
SPEED SUPREMACY
Champion Wins Picrropont
Handicap at Jamaica in
Very Fast Time.
MANISTER TOI AWAKES
Hera's Horso, Bank Outsider,
Huns Best Ha'co of Ycaiy
Ncarly Winning. r
Roamer, the little old bay gelding
whoso speed and courage have earned him
the undisputed title of "King of the
Turf," won the Pierrepont Handicap, the
feature event of the programme at th
Jamaica track yesterday afternoon.
The old fellow ran a great race, and
In a hurricane finish passed the Judges
a neck In front of Emit Hen's Manister
Tol, which was an added starter. A. K.
Macomber's War Cloud was the only
otner contestant. He nnlsned third, a
length behind Manister Tel.
The champion carried 127 pounds and
stepped over the one mile and a fur
long course against a strong wind In the
exceptionally fast tlmo of 1 :52 3-5. This
Is only three-fifths of a second behind
uie track record nunc up by Richard
T. Wilson Jr.'a Tartar In 1915. When
Tartar established tho record he carried
only 9B pounds.
Although Roamer's race was consid
ered little snort or phenomenal by a
vast majority of tho crowd present. It
did, not suit Andrew Miller, his owner,
nor Jack Goldsborough, his trainer.
Both agreed that' tho old fellow had
clven ud everything? and each was lubl
lant over the victory., but. both were of
the opinion that he should have won by
a larger margin.
Other expert horsemen disagreed with
them. They praised the champion for
his great courage In holding his own
with the Hera horse, which was carry
ing the featherlike weight of 103 nounds.
Manister Tol's race.wni the bent of his
career. It was pounds better than ho
ihr.weo In bis last race and caussd a
hest of racegoers to proclaim it the worst
reversal or tho year. f
Manister .Tol Wakei Up.
George Smith, the big black horse be
longing to John Sanford, and Richard
T. Wilson Jr.'a Corn Tassel were named
to start, but were' withdmwn early In the
afternoon. With them out Hen added
Manister ToL To the crowd he was cor.
sldered to havo little or no chance.
Roamer was an overwhelming favo
rite at 1 to 5, while War Cloud was a
decided second choice.
When It came to racing Manister Tol
cut a big figure. Mars Cassldy sent the
trio away on oven terms, but before a
sixteenth ol a mile had been covered
Manister Tol was speeding along In front
at a terrific pace. In the first half mile
he opened up a gap of half a dozen
lengths on his opponents. Near the end
of the backstretch Reamer, which had
been running In second place, made a
bid for the lead. In a few Jump he cut
down the distance separating him from
the leader to two lengths.
But Manister Tot had an abundance
of speed and continued t j sa.'l along at a
dizzy pace. So fast was It that Roamer's
mightiest efforts gained him only small
margins at a time. But the old cham
plon was full of tight and kept on his
lob. As a result he gradually mado up
the lost ground, and entering the home
stretch was at Manister Tol's saddle
girths.
From then to tho eighth pole the pair
struggled without either gaining an Inch.
But just as the crowd was shouting
"Roamer Is beaten!" Schuttlnger gave
the champion three powerful cracks of
the whip. They caused the courageous
victor of more than 100 fjruelllng bat
tics to spring forward and take the lead.
Ho stuck his nose in front, but that
was tho best he could do.
Manister Tol would not quit. He was
still full of running and for Roamer to
maintain his advantago tj,the end it was
necessary for Schuttlnuer to put up a
finish that resembled one of Johnny
Loftus's great rides.
tVmr Cloud Under a Pall.
During tho early part of the raco War
Cloud was under restraint, but when
'let down" a 'quarter of a mile from
home ho made only a feeble challenge
and then quit and it was only a most
vigorous finish by Loft us that kept him
near the leaders.
Loftus put up another one of his
great rides In the Liberty Bond Handi
cap on A. K. Macombef s Holllster. Blow
to catch his stride, Holllster was half a
dozen lengths out of tho race and ap
parently badly beaten when the short
home stretch was reached.
But Loftus didn't think so. He knew
the colt's ability and went In search of
the shortest route home. After mance
vrlng around for an Instant or two he
saw a small opening near the rail. Into
It he dashed his mount. It saved him
several lengths and brought hlra within
striking distance of Ima Frank and High
Cost, which were leading.
At tho final eighth pole Holllster
loomed up as a BcrJous contender. The
noted Jockey was working on him with
whip, heels, and hand. Inch by Inch ho
pained ground and twenty Jumps from
the judges was on even terms with the
leader. Then Loftus sat down and put
up a vigorous hand rldo. It was all that
was necessary and Holllster did his best
under It and gradually drew away and
won by half a length. Salvestra came
with a rush in the run through tho
stretch and got up In time to earn sec
ond honors by a head. Ima Frank was
third, a few Inches in front of, High Cost.
Holllster sped tho six furlongs in the
fast time of 1:12 3-5.
Bet, tho steeplechase mare owned by
W. R. Coe. earned brackets on the flat
in the first race. She defated a big field
or maidens at one mile and seventy yards
In easy fashion. Falrbrother kept her
close to the pace until the homo stretch.
There he gave his chargo several cracks
of tho whlD and a few digs of the heels.
The old mare responded and rushed to
tne front, to win by a length from Point
to Point
Carroll's Second 'Winner of Day
Jerry Carroll, her trainer, was confi
dent the mare would win and Imparted
ima information to all who visited the
paddock except a few professional bet
tors. Because herefused to tell a well
known patron of the turf that his charge
'as fit to run a good race a man well
known at tho track as a bis? bettor
threatened to make the trainer lose his
job, saying he would- ask Mr. Coe to
discharge blm.
Carroll also saddled the winner of the
second race when he sent Jack Mount
to the noat fit as a flddla and saw him
beat a field of platers in a driving; fin
ish. At the end of the one mile and a
sixteenth Journey Jack Mount was half'
a length ahead of Intriguer, which beat
Ninety Simplex half a dozen"lengths for
the place.

RACEGOERSMVE
W MILLION LOAN
Sabscribo $132,700 More
Bringing Total So Far Up
to $820)700.
The Liberty Loan drive at the Ja
maica, race track took a great Jump
toward the 31,000.000 mark yesterday
afternoon, when 3132,700 was subscribed.
This hrought the total for the week up
to IS26.700.
To help the cause along Uncle Sam
sent a full company of hla veteran
doughboys and several of his best avla.
tors to the course. They went through
their warlike manoeuvres and earned
thunderous applause. The airplanes shot
up and down and around the course a
dozen times and did stunts that added
many thrills to the day's good racing.
Before the drive began at 2Vclock
mere was a pony race. It furnished a
spirited contest and was won bv Will
lam Karrick's Rowdy, ridden by a little
negro named Holmes. Immediately after
in is race Jack Adler and "Big Ed" Ryan
mounted the' steps of the grand stand I
ana told the worth of Uncle Bam a wares.
They proved good sellers, for scarcely
had they finished lauding the boys in
the trenches than there was a wild rush
by the racegoei to do their bit.
When this ruBh was over Lieut J. P.
Gavin of the Oas Defence Division made
another request for funds for the boys.
His talk aroused a great burst of en
thusiasm and there was more business
at the booths.
A few minutes before the first race
Lieut T. J. T. Bibb. Jr., came sweeping
down over the track In an airplane. He
brought a Liberty Loan message from
the filers at Mlneola. With the message
he had his check for his month's pay.
"If some one will cash this check I
will buy a 150 bond If you fellows will
do tho same," he told the crowd. "This
Is all the money I own, but I will gladly
part with It for Uncle Sam. He needs
the money more than you do or I do and
If you loan to him what he wants he'll
pay It back and in the meanwhile he will
crush the despicable creatures who are
trying to murder your relatives and
friends over there."
This appeal again sent the crowd in
quest of receipts for their money. Hun
dreds crowded around the booths and
pushed and shoved each other In their
eagerness to buy the cheap bonds.
The largest subscriber of the day was
H. D. Brown, president and general
manager of the Cuban-American Jockey
Club of Havana. He bought 325,000
worth. J. K. McGrath boosted the
amount 310,000, while R. A. Kennedy,
C Sales. W. Rosenberg, Frederick John
son, Harry K. Knapp and A. R. Klein
each subscribed 5,000. -
Frank 'J. Moore made his second sub
scription of 33,000 and Frank Shaun-
nessy bought 35,000.

DISMISS DADBERT'S
CLAIM FOR SALARY
National Commission Denies
Dodger's Petition for Pay
Up to October 14.
TEST CASE FOR PLAYERS
A Ust case In the action of various I
major league ball players to obtain tneir
salaries from September 2, when the
seasdh was closed, until October 14, the
date on which their contracts for the
year terminated, yesterday was decided
by the National Commission against the
players.
The case was that of Jake Daubert,
captain of the Brooklyn club, against
Charley Ebbets. Daubert asked for
32.130 on his season's contract for.
19.000. The claim was denied by Carry
Herrmann and Ban Johnson, who acted
without John Heydler. The head of the
National Leaa-ue Issued no opinion, but
no doubt Is In concord with hla asso
ciates. Whether Daubert will go to .court
remains to be seen. Ills five year con
tract for a total of 345.000 has expired.
Herrmann and Johnson dismissed the
ctalm on the ground that the Brooklyn
club was forced to suspend as the result
of a Government order ending the activ
ities of the major leagues.
' Daubert submitted evidence whlchi
showed-he- held a contract covering the
period from 1914 through to 1318 at a
salary of 39.000 a season. On September
2 he was paid '3202, which, with previous
payments, totalled $6,850 for tho 1913
season to that date. He filed claim with
the National Commission for the differ
ence between that sum and 39,000, al
leging the Brooklyn club was liable for
the full amount The National Commis
sion In Its finding states:
"Wnllo It Is true that the Brooklyn
Club agreed to pay the player his speci
fied salary for the playing season for
each of the years 4n which he was under
contract with that club and that the con
tract recited that the playing season
would begin on or about April 14 In
each of said years and end on or about
October 14, there was nothing to pre
vent the league of which the Brooklyn
Club was a member, by appropriate
action, cutting the season short. This
was made necessary by the work or
fight ruling of the Government herein
referred to.
The Brooklyn club was unable to
finish the season because of the Impos
sibility of retaining the services of Its
players In view of the Government order
and for that reason that club was wjthlrv
Ita rights In glvng notice of the termina
tion of all Its contracts with its players
if they desired to do so. The claim of
the player Is therefore dismissed."

able to catch The Porter at any'stage of

covering tho quarter at very close to a
two minute gait, closely pressed by The
Divorcee, made a disastrous break and
falling to recover his stride, was dis
tanced.
As the chestnut filly had left her feet
at the same time as the colt sho barely
saved herself by trotting a very fast

The second heat saw the second dis
aster of the day. The Divorcee went to
a break after passing the quarter and
she also failed to savo her distance, fin
ishing behind tho flag. With two stars
out of the way the race was an open
affair. Olive l'ant, which won the first
heat faded away In the next two and

Like Alexander the Great Miss Molla
BJursttdt soon will be forced to weep
for lack of worlds to conqlier. Playing
In tha final events of the New Jersey
State championships on the courts of
the Orange Lawn Tennis Club at Moun
tain Station. N. J., the famous Norse
tennis artist yesterday added the tingles
and doubles titles to her credit
Miss DJurstedt mowed down the clever
Miss Marion Zlndersteln of Boston in tna
final of the singles, winning at ( 1,
61. In the final of the doubles Mies
BJurstedt Ind Mrs. Spencer F. Weaver
defeated Mrs. II. Stuart Green and Mrs.
L a. -Morris at 61, 75.
The losers of the doubles were on
opposing tides in the final of the mixed
doubles, which was won by Mrs. Green
and Harry S. O'Boyle. the Pelham Bay
sailor. They defeated Mrs. iMorrls and
Alex Jler, another tar, at e z, t. s.
Mlsa Bturatedt was defending the Jer
sey title, as she won It at Montclalr in
1916. Last year no titles were awarded.
Early In tho match Miss Zlndersteln
kept pace with her rival, as they alter
nated In the first six games, each break
ing through her opponent's service. How
ever, after that Miss BJurstedt's superior
control and drlvlngLpower' evinced Itself
and thereafter she had things pretty
much her own way.
Norse Miss Supreme,
It was a pretty match to watch and
contained some beautiful tennis. Play
iryr the same brilliant game as she did
the dav nrevlous against Miss Cassell
Miss BJurstedt went after everything
and there were few shots that eluded
her. Occasionally, however, Mlsa in
damtrln wnuld thrill the allery by send
Ing a pretty placement Just within the
side lines.
There was no soft volleying. The great
Molla sent over her terrific driven, and
Mia Zlndersteln tried to emulate her,
but her control ran second best Espe
cially was Miss Zlndersteln prone to net
when she tried to whlxx back Molla'a
low bounding speed balls.
Miss Zlndersteln also hurt her game
by frequent double faulting, especially
In the second set. She commiuea nine
double faults, oeven of them In the sec
ond set Molla refused to give her op
ponent any points by double faulting.
The doubles match was featured by a
sensational rally by Mrs. Green and Mrs.
Morris In the second match, when, after
having the score against thim, 2 5,
they tied up the match, only to lose it
67. The hard driving by Mls BJur
ttedt and Mrs. Weaver proved too much
for Mrs. Green and Mrs. Morris.
Mrs. Weaver Effective.
Mrs. Green did not play as strongly
as usual but this may have been due to
the'way Miss BJurstedt drove the ball
back at her. Mrs. Green was able to
reach the ball, but could not play Mol
la'a cannonball drives. Mrs. Morris also
had her troubles at the net and several
times Miss BJurstedt almost drove the
racket out of her hand.
Mrs. Weaver played her usual strong
overhead game at the net and sliced oft
a lot or points for her slue Dy cutting
In on returns.
The hardest played match of the day
was the semi-final of the mixed doubles
betwj?n Mrs. Green and Harry CBoyle
and Miss Clare Cassell and Duke
Thomas. Tho former won at 6 1. 46.
7 5. In tho tblrd set Miss Cassell and
Thomas led at 6 S, and had set point
when their opponents rallied and pulled
the match out of the fire.
The final and mixed doubles proved
much easier for Mrs. Green and O'Boyle.
as Mrs. Morris and Her never threatened
seriously.
After the matches the Pelham Bay
sailors and other guests of the Orange
Lawn Tennis Club were entertained with
a dinner and dance by Mrs. C. B. Cor-
wyn and her son. Theodore, at the Es
sex County Country Club. The sum

Turn In Best Ball of 69
Play Splendid Golf ih Red
St Andrew's and Defeat
by 5 Up and
Jerome Travera and Max Marston
made a great pair In a four ball Red
Cross match at the St Andrew's Golf
ilub- yesterday afternoon, defeating Os
wald Kirkby and John G. Anderson. 6
up and 4 to play. So well did the former
national champion and the Baltusrol
golfer fit that they worked In frequent
notes better than par, and when It was
all over wero able to point to a best ball
of t for the round.
It to happened that three of the quar
tet never bad seen the course before, the
exception being Travers, who won his
nrsi metropolitan title there back In
I BOS. It has been asserted that famili
arity with a course does no harm, yet
Marston went out In 16 and back in 38
for a 74, the best of the day. Travers,
In rare form going out, reached the turt
In 36, and even with a 41 for the last
nine turned in a 76 for tha full round.
The other two made 77s,
It waa estimated by the club officials
that $1,000 had been raised for the Hod
Cross. Before tho players stepped to the
flrot tee caddie and scoring privileges
had been sold for $600. Each of the
players was "sold" for $100 Darwin P.
Klngsley taking Kirkby, Walter Douglas
bidding for Travers, T. A. Buckner for
Marston and William Albright for An
derson. Tom Lewis was the official
scorer.
When tho players left the first' tee the
gallery was so large that a rope had to
be used, but the spectators were so or
derly and obedient that the voluntary
ponce naa little to do.
Losers Take tho Second.
The outward holes at St Andrews are
mostly on the short side, ranging be
tween SZO and 880 yards. There Is only
one long hole, the ninth. 437 yards. The
only hole won by Kirkby and Anderson
going out waa the second, where the
first named brought off a fifteen foot
putt for a 3. Prom that time on. how
ever, Jerry and Max were lnvInclbleflrst
one and then the other rising to the
occasion. That picturesque fifth hole,
where the drive Is from a high tee toward
a green far below In the valley, saw
Kirkby pull his tee shot out of bounds.
Anderson got on the green on his second
shot but it did no good, as Travers ran
down a putt of fully twelve feet for a 3.
That made Travers and Marston 2 up.

William Tllden
Id, of Philadelphia

tional doubles championship, was sched
uled to play, but at the last moment
Tllden sent his regrets.
The match was one of the best yet
Played on the Park Hill courts. The
sides were evenly matched and all four
played grand tennis. The third set
waa a seesaw affair, Irr which the Japs
finally came out on top after some hard,
heady playing, especially on the part of
Kumagae,
Ichlya had his looping drive In great
working order and covered the back
court In splendid style, frequently swish
ing back the ball between Richards and
Hall, where neither was ahlo to play it
In another exhibition Miss Eleanor
Goss and Hall, the State mixed doubles
champions, defeated Miss Florence Bal
lln and Harold Throckmorton, at 6 3,
In the final of the men's doubles
Harry Stelnkampf and Ingo Hartman
defeated Richards and Allen Behr, at
6 4, 7 5. Stelnkampf and Hartman
gained the final over Elliott Blnzen and
Harry O'Boyle by default
Stelnkampf and Hartman played more
conservative tennis than their oppon
ents, who in trying to make kills fre
quently gave their partners points on
errors. ,
Owing to the continued illness of Bln
zen and Miss Marie Wagner the finals
of tho men's singles and the mixed
doubles were Indefinitely postponed.
