Rena Azoff, a daughter of Azoff, driv- en by Walker Garrison, won the race In straight heats from a field of iwelve starters. The Mathews' stake for 2:07 trot- ters, purse $1,000, went to King Watts, driven by Lon McDonald, who won each of the three heats, also taking down. the A. B. Mathews' cup. Tom Murphy, with Carmelita Tall, got second money. The novelty of the day was a one heat dash of one mile, the horses starting forty yards behind the mark. The purse 4 $500.

All three mem- bers, Andre Gobzert, Henri Cochet and Jean Borotra, met defeat in their first competitions. This elimination of a nation's best in preliminaries play was almost without precedent. Gobert fought hardest to keep France in the courts, but young James Davie: Leland-Stanford collegian, wore him down after an up-hill fight following a lost love set. The scores 11-9, 6-1 conquerer of Pat O'Hara he only match which France won from Australia, fared poorly be- fore the steady stroking of Nat W. ), of Boston, a college star of a decade ago. He went out in straight 6-1 were 0-6, In a battle of younghters, Arnold W. Jones of Providence, a Yale fresh- man, defeated Jean Borotra, spare member of the French team, 7-5, 2-6, §-3. The eliminations of Gobert and Co- chet were in the third round, and of Borotra in the second round. Each ad advanced, however, without com- tition through opponents defaults. The feature of young Davies in turning back his giant opponent after a love set lost was the outstanding feature of the day's play. It was ap- parently a success of head as well as hand. When he found Gobert lead- ing him 4-0, in the first set, he con- served his strength. Staring the sec- ond set he smashed out a lead of 5-2 before Gobert dug in and pulled up on him. Then they tilted along, each plainly fatigued through deuce and alternating advantage, including an 11-8 session on the eleventh game, which Davies won. Placements were scarce, errors deciding points. The tast game was won by the Californian, 6-4, a place counting the final point. The only member of the Australian team in this tournament, R. C. Wer- theim, a substitute, also met defeat by Willard E. Davis, of San Francis- LEADING HOME RUN HITTERS IN MAJORS American League Heilmann, Detroit .. Milier.

The British open cham- pion and his Australian partner were .3 wn at the end of the mmrnin;J round. \ i Bronkle 3b Oakmont Country Club, Pittsburgh, Pa, Aug. 15—(By the A. P.)—Gene Sarazen—pride of Pittsburgh and na- tional open champicn—must eliminate Jock Hutchison, of Chicago, from the national professional golf tournament tomorrow, for the second time in two seasons, or forfeit an opportunity to- wear two crowns. Thflmttsb.urgh youngster and the veteran' Scot won their 36-hole match today, decisively, as a consequence of brilliant play, particularly in the four matches tomorrow—the fourth of the tournament. Bob - Cruikshank of Westfield, N. J., will meet Charlie Rowe, Pittsburgh, and Will be in the upper bracket with Sarazen and Hutchison. In the lower bracket are Tom Kerrigan, Siwanoy, N. Y., playing John Golden, Tuxedo, N. Y, and Emil Loeffler, Pittsburgh who will meet Emmet French, of Youngstown. Sarazen and Hutchison met in the second round of the national profes- siona tournament at Inwood, N. Y., in 1921 and Gene completely outplayed Jock, winning 8 and 6. Hutchison and Sarazen met with stiff oppgsition for 27 holes today but their opponents faltered on the home stretch. Hutchison eliminated Harry Hampton, Detroit, 5 and 3 while Sara- zen, only one up in 18 heies, went developed his Skokie stride and putts, long and short, all looked alike. - -, Loeffler wrested victory from Ed- die Towns, aso of the Smoky City 2 and 1, after the latter had been ahead nearly all the way. Towns was 2 up at the end of 27 holes but the traps prov- ed his.undoing. F. S.'Gallett, of Hemp- stead, L. L, putted poorly-in -the fore- noon and gave Bob Cruikshank such a commanding lead that the latter triumphed 7 and 6. Johnny TFarrell's - skyrocket came down. Yesterday the boy from Mama- roneck, N.- Y. played like. a cham- pion and put Jim Barnes out of:the running. Today his all round play was indifferent and he lost to Kerrigan 5 and 3. Farrell putted well in the morning ' round but seemingly broke under strain’ in the afternoon. Golden, who {g regarded by some experts as a contender for: the title, shot par golf, 74, and eliminated Al Cuici, Bridgeport, Conn,, 3 and 2. French out-played R. S. Miner, of Stamford, Conn., and his 8 to 7 vic- tory was well earned. - Sarazen is favored to - win over Hutchison tomorrow, partly because of his 1821 performance and partly because he knows the course more thoroughly than the westerrn profes- sional. Jock has been free.to admit wild in the afternoon and downed F. T. Sprogell, Memphis, 9 and 7. Gene BROWNS DROP ONE POINT AS THEY WIN AND LOSE Washington, Aug. 15—St. Louis split in a double-header here today, winning 7 to 1, after being defeated in the opener 6 to 1. Zachary proved a puzzle to‘the visitors in the first game while the locals bunched hits off both Wright and Pruett. In the sec- ond encounter the locals were baffled by Davis while krancis was hit hard and frequently. Score: (First Game.) (A) Washington.

The double victory coupled with New York's defeat by Pittsburgh, placed the Cubs within three and a half games of the leaders, Kauffmann allowed only four hits n the first game while Chicago bunched its hits. The locals jumped into the lead in the second game by hitting op- portunely behind bases on balls and an error, with some daring base running. Jones weakened in the sixth inning and had to be replaced by Cheeves in the seventh, after which Chicago siaged a couple rallies and claimed the game. Scores: (First Game.)

Cooper was in good form, hold- ing the Giants to five hits, two of which came in the ninth, giving th evisitors their second run. In the eighth inning Tierney knocked a home run, scoring Russell who had tripled. Fast fielding by both teams featured.

Three base hit DUNDEE KAYOES FRUSH IN NINTH ROUND New York, Aug. ls.—Johnny Dundee of Ney York knocked out Danny Frush in the 9th round of a 15-round bout to- night at Ebbets field. Frush had taken a count of nine in the eighth round. The New York Italian led after a cau- tious first round. He jabbed away with a straight left to the head, mixing in hard body punches and bouncing away before Frush could counter. In:the ear- ly rounds the Clevelander landed severe lefts that jolted Dundee and several times Dundee held on, The way to a knockout was paved in the seventh when Dundee changed his style and fogled Frusa Mito rushing in- to the lead. Johnny met these adyances wit ha straight left to the jaw and an occasional right hook, to the ribs and | kidneys, greatly weakening Frush. In the elghth the crowd was renewing its clatter of eariy rounds, shouting for ac- tion whtn Dundee planted: left to the head, followed quickly with both hands to the jaw. sending Frush to the ropes where Dundee planted a hard right to the stomach and Frush fell to the ofior on his side. The Clevelander calmly awaited the count of nine But had. diffi- culty getting onto- his ° feet. - Dundee rushed at him with both hands, driving his battered opponent across the ring, but the gong saved Frush. Dundee cameé springing out like a tiger in the ninth. meeting Frush in . the latter's copnmer. Frush -attempted to clinch but Dundee drew away and plied both hands to the head. He added a hard right to the hea and then sunk a terrific left to the stomach. Frush sank to the floor. fall- ing on his elbow. his eyes remained open but he was unabfe to rise. oy Referee Patsy Haley and Dundee Hft- ed the defeated boxer to his' corner. By his - victory, Dundee became the posses- eor of his second vague title. It gave him the recogmition of the New York state ‘boxing commission as the . feather- weight champlon of the world, :though Johnny Kilbane, of Cieveland. retains the crowned bearer outside this “state. Dundee already held the “junior light. weight championship” a creation of Pro. moter Tex Rickard. It was the winner's three hundred seventeenth fight exclud- ing exhibitions. in his twelve years in the ring. Scotty Montieth, the .man who discovered and developed him was in his corner.

Being out on a hunting ex- pedition with a party of Sudanese, he came upon the body of a giraffe that had been killed some thirty-six or forty-eight hours before, and, as the. wound showed, by a lion. Upon asking his servants why, if a lion had killed it, he had not eaten it, they smiled as if to say that he was evi- dently new to the Sudan and pointed out that the giraffe had fallen and still lay on its left side. They then ex- plained that if, when a lion strikes his game, it falls on its right side he heats it, but if on its left side he leaves it untouched Other Sudanese with whom he discussed the matter told him the same thing. The English man admits that the natives may have been spooiing him and that the belief may be only a superstition: but he is inclined to think otherwise and to believe that the natives have hit upon a fact of natural history that white men had not discovered. —Exchange.
