MATE IS CROWNED 3YEAR-OLD CHAMP Conqueror of Twenty Grand Nominated for Four More Big Races. BY WILLIAM WEEKE Associated Press Sports Writer. HICAGO, July 21.—Ungil further | notice, Mate, A. C. Bostwick's chestnut colt, is the 3-year-old | chempiQn of the 1931 racing season. i The title was generally accorded Mrs. | Payne Whitney's Twenty Grand until about 4:30 p.m., last Saturday, but it communities, where only a score or so will pitch, virtually the entire popula- ‘ons will follow the fortunes of their | nding performers. { n the basis of last Winter's and this ing's pitching, particularly in inter- | matches, Washington's strongest | itenders shoutd be Roy (Woodie) on, Andrew Casper, Leonard West- | Hibberd Quantrille and Raymond | n, although several dark horses e moved in from Maryland, notably from Baltimore and .

It was their third meeting of the season and it was Mate’s second triumph over Twenty Grand. Mate won the Preakness, but finished third in the Kentucky Derby behind Twenty Grand | and Sweep All. Twenty Grand did not | run in the American Derby at Wash- ington Park and Mate won it in mot ' very impressive stvle over Pittsburgher. o the last two years, Millard E. Peake . ¢f Bethesda, will attempt to regain the Metropolitan title he won in 1929, but | it seems the big ex-mounted sheriff of | Montgomery County will have trouble | staving off a rush of challengers in his 7 AAT : HonoRs (9»71_7, 'L\%}’*&‘ ¢ \9 ‘,‘\C?X."‘E"N Boys' MR PEAKES =) ‘The Greentree Stable entry of Twenty Grand and St. Brideaux was a 1-to. favorite at post time, but 2 minutes 275 | seconds later Mate had brought his| millionaire owner a $73,650 pot of gold, and had become the No. 9 horse in the list of American turf money winners, His time bettered the classic record sot by Chicago six years ago, by more than | 1" second. Mate has been nominated for four | more important 3-year-old events, the Travers Midsummer Derby at Saratoga, the Lawrence Realization at Belmont, | the Riggs Handicap at Pimlico and the | Latonia championship stakes, and by winning three of them, probably would replace Gallant Fox as the biggest money winner in America.

Montgomery and Prince | Georges Counties, particularly the lat- ter, have developed new strength. Peake had his hands full in 1930 vanquishing Walter Kolb, from up Lay- tonsville way, and Kolb is back again and much improved, as are a number of other Montgomery pitchers who fell by the wayside in the county finals. RINCE GEORGES COUNTY will have a veritable swarm of ambitious | twirlers and at Jeast half a dozen | of them, unheard of a year ago, are formidable. | State title threats are reported at Marlboro, Hyattsville, Seat Pleasant, Mount Rainier, Capitol Heights and several others of about 30 towns that will stage tournaments. | In the 1930 grand finale Washington | was represented by four pitchers and Maryland and Northern Virginia by two each. The Executive Committe of the Mate came out of the race in ex- cellent shape and today moved east on the same train with Twenty Grand. The latter anima) appeared to have tied up badly, and it was indicated he would be given a long rest before trying to even up the score with Mate, pos- sibly in the Travers. Two more rich events will be de- cided at_Arlington this week. The Matron Handicap, $10.000 added for fillies and mares, 3 years old and up- ward. will be run Wednesday, and the Arlington Cup will be decided Satur- | day. The cup has an added value of $20,000 and is expected to be a struggle among Sun Beau, Gallant Knight, Mike Hall and Questionnaire, the leaders of the season’s handicap division.

STARS OF TURF MAY SETTLE BIG DISPUTE Mate and Twenty Grand Likely to Meet in Travers Stake at Saratoga Track. By the Associated Press. | NEW YORK, July 21.—Hailed as two | of the greatest thoroughbreds of recent | American turf history, Mate and| Twenty Grand probably will renew their | battle for 3-year-old supremacy in the | historic Travers at fashionable Sara- | toga August 22. Right now, Mate, boasting of two vic- tories in three starts over Twenty Grand, holds the upper hand, but the Travers may sgain throw the question of the championship of the division into a turmoil and leave it to be decided in the Lawrence Realization during Bel- mont Park's September meeting. Prior to the running of the Arlington classic last Saturday many rated Twenty Grand as a superhorse, and his followers are slow to admit that he is inferior to any 1931 three-year-old. They point to his recent injury. which in_all probability took some of the edge off the speed that hung up a new rec- ord of 2:014-5 for the mile and a quarter in winning the Kentucky Derby.

One surprising feature of the past open championship was that after the last round had gotten well under way it was clearly seen that there would be no mad scramble at the finish. In each of the past four or five years com- ing down the stretch there have been half a dozen or more competitors who had a chance to stick their noses in front at the finish, but this year by 3 o'clock on Saturday afternoon we were all pretty well assured that either Billy Burke or George Von Elm would win. Over this same course in 1920 a pop- eyed gallery had watched four men go to the last green needing a birdie 3 to tie, All afternoon we had been going through the same thing—dashing out to the thirteenth green to pick up some competitor who looked like he was going to beat Ted Ray's score, following him around until he missed his chance on the last hole, then dashing back to pick up another man on the thirteenth. ‘This year Burke finished as Von Elm was starting the thirteenth, and every- body else was either in the club house * or out of the tournament. SUPPOSE one thing that was re- sponsible for this was the fact that since 1920 the fairways at Inverness d been considerably restricted and the rough had becn allowed to grow until it had become quite formidable. The fairways were wide enough to give an ample margin to the man who was hitting his tee shots with confidence, | but there was a_tremendous urge to Johnny Lehman, the defending champion, in the semi-finais.

These two youngsters have met three times in the Western and Moe has won on two occasions. Don beat Lebman in the quarter-finals of the 1929 champion- ship. which he won. Last year when Lehman captured the title, he rubbed Moe out in the quarter-finals and last week they mct in the semi-finalswith the Oregon boy winning the rubber decision. Lekman and Moe are likely to be battling each other in both the nationzl and Western for m2ny years to com Don Moe. i Was & good bit of speculation as | 5teer the ball Off the tee, especially |to what the winning score would be. | under the terrific strain.
