Low score for the first nine holes on the qualifying round was chalked up this morning by Al Seanor, Community club - star, when he came in with a 40. Glen Littlefield of the Casper Club, winner of the Tribune cup last year, playing with him, was but one stroke behind with a 41, Despite the blithesome breezes that buffeted their way over the fairways, palpitated the bushes in the rough and threatened to blow the tees into the next county, 26 ardent golfers yesterday started on their qualifying rounds in the Casper city golf tournament. Most of them were content to call it a day after nine holes and will finish their qualifying today. A few of the hardier suuls laugh- ed at the wind and continued on round for 18 holes. There were just five who turned in cards for 18 ‘holes and of these Frank Fir- man>led with an 82. - His score showed a 41 for both rounds, con- sistent golf considering the play- VICENTINI NOT ~ HARD.T0 BEAT Leonard Watches Bem- stein Tum Trick on Thursday. By FAIR PLAY. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—Benny Leonard watched Bernstein demon- strate Thursday night that Luis Vin. centini is not a hard man to beat— if you keep away from his right. In the second round, Luis put over his wallop and Bernstein went to the floor for a count of eight. Had not the punch been a bit high, he might ‘still be horizontal. Luis has the punch, but ought not to rely on it exclusively, for he is. always apt to meet a rugged, clever man like Bernstein and lose a fight on points. On the other hand, the lightweight situatinon did not get any bounce by Jack’s victory. ‘All that Bart Madden has to do now.is to go the limit with Dempsey and Firpo and his cup of glory will be full. He has boxed everybody else of any note and while usually battered antl pounded with every- thing but the arc lamps, he has*none- theless stuck the distance out. Since Bartley does not seem to mind being punished, referees are much more lenient in the matter of letting him stay in the rin gafter he has been soundly basted than they would other fighters and the crowd, which js usually inclined to call upon the referee to stop a bout when one man !s outclassed, cheer Madden on, ‘When the bout ends and he is still upright, they cheer him like a con- ‘querer. That is one way to be a champion. If you can't knock other men about but have the endurance to play the part of a Mexican bean, there is fame and fortune in store for you. There is some talk that Mickey ‘Walker may go off the handle and sign for a bout with Greb. Mickey has decided that he has got to begin to make big money and the coming months will probably see him much more active than he has ever been. When it comes down to real fights, he has not had much more action in the past year than has Benny Leonard, British Premier Is, Still Barred From Golf Club ELGIN, Scotland, Aug. 19.—Pre- mier Ramsay Macdonald is still to be denied the use of the Moray Golf club here from which he was expelled in 1916 on account of his attitude toward the war with Ger- many. A motion to rescind the expulsion Was actually carried at a meeting of the committee by 55 votes to 47, byt as the rules of the club require a two thirds majority, the original decision stands, Weissmuller Makes Time PARIS, Aug. 19—Johnny Welss- muller of, Chicago, participating in the international swimming meet at Vienna, did the 100 metres free style in 57 810 seconds, says a despatch to the sporting paper L'Auto. The mark gi in the above despatch would be a world record. The previous record, also held by ‘Weissmuller, was 58 3-5 seconds, esthblished at Alameda, Calif., in July, 1923. : fulness of the gale. The next low man was John Sutherland with an 9. About a dozen players, after going out to the course with the intention of qualifying, decided to take a chance on more favorable weather today. “ It is expected that the excellent start “obtained yesterday that the tournament will be the largest that has ever been held in Casper, To- night, after the completion of the qualifying rounds, the draw will be made and the players will be paired for the three flights. The drawing will be posted at the clubhouse and printed in tomorrow's papers. First round matches must be played to- morrow, The committee in charge will at- tempt to notify players tomorrow morning by telephone of how they are paired up for tke first round matches. If any player is not notified it will be incumbent on him to telephone to the Community club or to go thelr personally to find out. No first round. matches will be permitted to go over tomorrow.

His friends, who have been hoping that he will regain his old time form and come through to a victory over Bill Tilden in the national singles, are therefore greatly encouraged. Johnston never stroked better than on Saturday at Newpért and he had the limits of the court down to perfection. © He was deep with hig drives and his volleying had its best snap. He was not, however, nearly as convincing in doubles which he and Clarence Griffin won owing to an accident to Bob Kin- sey’s knee. At the time, it looked as though the partners were sure of victory. Dave Morrow has taken up his duties at Washington and Jeffqrson, where he will serve as head coach of the football eleven. He has taken with him as an assistant, Miller, the former Pennsylvania back. What these two men hope to pro- duce is a combination of the Warner and Penn systems—the Warner style of loose offense, with the charging quality of the linemen on defense which last has been the characteristic of the Pennsylvania's lines.

In the important games which are now shaping the end of the major league baseball season, pitchers are playing the hero roles usually seized by sluggers. The Yankees, as veteran Joe Bush held Chicago to four hits, bunched four or five safeties off Robertson and Con- nally for a 2 to 0 victory that gave them a two and one half game lead over Detroit which lost to Washington, 6 to. 3, and dropped to within one half contest of the Senators. ; Tom Sheehan and Burleigh Grimes corralled major honors in losses suf- fered by the Giants and: Pirates. New, York, in the longest game played in the majors this year, lost to the Reds in 17 innings, 8 to 7. PIRATES SHOW OABIINSTNY Late Spurt More Than Flash, Baseball Expert Says. By JOHN B. FOSTER (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Aug. 19.—Pittsburgh has done something that it has not achieved since 1918 and if its an omen, its a bad one for the Giants. The Pirates have won the season's series from N York. They have been thrashing the Giants and thrashing them hard—and a team that can do that has more in it than a little temporary gas. In 1918 the season was not finish- ed because the United States goy- ernment issued the famous fight or work order and the baseball folks babbed their relations with Wash- ington. It is well understood now that the league races could have been run if there had not been a mix-up in signals. It was in that year that the Pi- rates last triumphed over the Giants in their inter-city series. Pittsburgh won 11 games and New York won 8. In 1919, when the Giants made a bid for pennant only to lose to Cincinnati, Pittsburgh won 9 games from New York and lost 11. In 1920 when Brooklyn won the champion- ship, Pittsburgh won 9 from New York and lost 12. In 1921, the first of the trio of years that the Giants wen the pennant, Pittsburgh won onjy six and lost 16. In 1922 the Pirates broke even with their New York rivals and in 1923 they slip- ped again, winning 9 and losing 13. This year, they have the series won. By how much of a margin it will be won remains to be seen. But if they continue to show their mastery over New York until the end of the year, they may offset the lead that. the Giveits have gain- ed by reducing Brooklyn to pulp and incidentally gain the champion: ship themselves. As long as they are the runners-up, every game. they can defeat New York puts them a full game nearer to the top, — SPORT BRIEFS — NEW ORLEANS—Pancho Villa world’s flyweight champion, won a newspaper decision over Amos Car- lin, Jeanette, Iowa, in 15 rounds, CITY, Tenn—w.

Earl Sande was up, and horsemen supposed he would ease Salacia up and not start on any wild gose chase that could only, they sald, lead to a lot of unnecessary effort. Sam Hildreth and Jack Joyner, veteran traine: Swore and turned their backs away from the track as Sande let the filly out, under slight restraint. Salacia was fairly flying after the field, which was rounding into the stretch in a cloud of dust, but it seemed like such a hopeless chase that the trainers damned the boy for taking a chance on run- ning the mount. Only a few others watched the filly, their eyes intent on the race. But Salacia was gaining ground at every bound. Sande found hor full of run and let her go. Down the backstretch Salacla had been a furlong behind the leaders; rounding the turn she was up with the trailers, flying. ' “Look st Salacia, she's running ) away,” the crowd began to shout, although most of: them counted her out of the race. When straightened into the stretch, still seeming to be running easily, the Widener filly made a final spurt. Earl Sande, greatest rider of the American turf, settled down to ride as only he can. Past the field like an arrow went Salacia. Twenty yards from the winning post she was two lengths out in front, and she won by tha’ much. The ovation that greeted her and Sande was Ilke that accorded the winner of a great stake event. Men and women went wild and crowded around. Some unofficial clockers caught Salacla {n record tim be! neo lead; these are the heroes of the sport world. It is not often that such efforts grace turf performances to such an appreciable degree that horse and riler become the heroic vortex of a storm of cheering such as rose at Saratoga a few days, ago when Sande rode Salacia home. The Widener filly, sturdy daugh- ter of Ultimus out of Queen of the Water, was carrying top weight in @ race against the best mares in the country. And sho was left at the post.
