By Vincent Treanor. The autumn meeting of the Empire Racing Association which is sched- | uled to open on next Monday and conclude on the 26th, will bring to a close the most successful season of thoroughbred sport the State of New York has known in more than a dec- ade, Horses of superlative merit have ‘been seen and many time perform- | ances have heen placed on the record books which should remain there for some years, Those who remember Morris Park and the quality of the sports enjoyed at that popular course, know that year took place during the autumn at that point before the Westchester Racing Association established a new home on Long Island. Morris Park was the pride of its owner, John A. Morris, and no man was fonder of a| horse than he. He came by his love of racing honestly, as his father, Francis Morris, was @ sportsman of the old school who was not content to win races in the United States, but furnished the sinews of war for the famous English campaign in which | Prior and Prioress pluyed such a prominent part. It is a coincidence that the course which furnishes the people of West- chester County with a fine brand of racing at the present time should be controlled by a single owner, Mr. Butler having no partners in the or- ganization. Mr. Butler is as proud of dmpire as John A. Morris was of the superb course near Van Nest and it is his intention to have it a model of its kind when the improvements now planned for its beautification have been completed The programme for the opening day, Columbus Day, which is a legal holiday in this State, is designed to give the public a chance ee the Colum- to Th p, at one mile and @ fur- est horses in training. bus Handic long, hag an added value of ‘The pick of the handicap division will no~doubt be seen in this contest, As all of the purse for the opening day will have value of $1,361, the best vailable material in training will be ent to the post. It has always been the policy of the Empire management to encour age budding jockey talent, as there is a shortage of good riders. With this end in view a race for maiden riders will bo a feature of the programme of Thursday, Oct. 23. ‘The association will donate ‘the sum of $25 to the rider of the winner of this contest, which will be over the short six fur- tong route. ‘There will be an incentive for th older riders to put forth their be point system—four for a winning mount, three for a second, two for a third and one for a fourth, > Motorcycle Races Entries will be reop the Nationa! championship motorcycle race meet, which will be held this Satur- day afternoon at the Sheepshead Bay Speedway, The enforced postponement it poasible for eRe a State’s History RACING SELECTIONS.

By Bozeman Bulger. (Special Staff Correspondent of The Evening World.) Conerighht P19. vere Oo, ‘ow’ York venting i) CHICAGO, D1, Oct. 6—Rain tem- porarily checked the slaughter of the White Sox by the Reds, but It didn’t hide the seoret of success. The pre- dominating figure in a series that has ripped and torn apart the dope is Pat Moran. His astute mind hae over- shadowed the hitting of the Sox. By mere foree and skill of direction the man who piloted the Reds to a cham- pionship has overcome all the dan- gers so vividly pointed out in ad- vance by the experts. In addition to that, Pat Moran made his men be- lieve that they are as certain of the world's championship as they were of the National League pennant. He tas convinced every man on the Cincinnati Club that he is an indi- vidual factor of importance, and to do that he has gone against what his ad- visers have insisted is good judgment. He has given every man a chance to take part in the classic event, and you may go and bet that each player will start out for the Reds next season stronger and with more confidence than ever. Pat Mofan is a smart man. He looks to the future as well as the present. In baseball he follows the theory of that financier who said take care of the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves. As a ppor- is a power. On Saturday, for instance, the board of specialists insisted that he come back with Dutch Ruether, the man who had outgamed and outhit the Sox. “No,” answered Pat, “there is another player who wants a chance and I am going to see that he gets it. He helped us win the pennant, and he can just as well help us win the World's Series.” Moran was talking about Jimmy Ring. Realizing the confidence be- stowed in him by his manager, the Brooklyn boy, bubbling with enthusi- asm, stepped out against the slugging White Sox and held them to three scattered hits. He fielded brilliantly and at no time evinced a sign of ap- prehension. In other words, Jimmy shouldered the responsibility thrust upon him and made good for the manager who had banked on his nerve and ability. That means a lot tv a ball player; as it does to a man in any other walk of life. The esprit and morale that Pat Moran has thus injected into his team fs the thing that is winning this World's Series. His skill and thought- fulness for his men have more than offset the natural superiority and strength of the White Sox. Moran has out-thought and out-guessed the veteran Kid Gleason, Moran has taken chances, based on his study of men and their temperament, while Gleason has stuck to the old army game of procedure—he has’ suggested no variety. Gleason has made his strongest hitters waste their strength in the sacrifice hit. Moran has imposed no such re- strictions upon his men, As # re- sult they have delivered the goods and the Reds are close upon the championship. They must win two more games. Had the seven game series been in vogue they would have to win but one, By the way, can vou imagine the awful squawk if Cincinnati should win four gumes and lose the champion- ship because, in trying to take an advantage, Mr. Herrmano insisted upon a vine game series? In the great crowd that is now over- running Chicago there is little doubt that the Reds will win the series. Their punch has been deadly hoy the edge of three games to one. Fven among the Sox supporters there is little hope of a finish like that when the Boston Red Sox, after los- ing three nes to Pitisburgh in 1904, came from behind and won, Those things do not happen often LAST WEEK OF AUTUMN RACING JAMAICA TO-MORROW The $1500 Hiawatha The Caledonian And 4 Other Brilliant Events FIRST RACE AT 2.30 P, M, Special Race Trains leave tion, 88d St, and 7th Ave Sta
