NEW YORK. Oct. If the next con-
test for the Vanderbilt cup is held in
the United States there is a likelihood
that it will be run over a private circuit
protected from the trespassing of the
multitude by strong fences policed by
picked men and under the absolute
control of the cup commission This

of members of the present cup COM
mission and others interested in the
contest at the Garden City Hotel

a splendid pace, reaching San Jose in

being checked at San Jose at 11.19 D. m.
From that point to the San Juan Hill
the machine fairly hummed The grade
was taken nicely. but IN going down on
the other side the vehicle skidded and
brought up against a rock. The right
rear wheel could not stand the strain,
as 1t had been damaged in skidding IN
the city shortly before the machine
started on the trip. The spokes showed
that they were in a bad way, but the
crew patched them up and continued
on the trip. hoping that as they were
so far ahead OF the scheduled time by
careful driving to get through and
even set a new record.
Paso Robles was reached In seven
hours and FIVE minutes. At Oxnard
they were one hour and thirty minutes
ahead OF the record and Il looked az il
they would get through, but Just after
leaving that place they struck a bit OF
bad road and the wheel gave way and
the record-breaking efforts were at an
end This was to be regretted. for
they undoubtedly would have set a new

Mclaughlin surprised the spectators
by his cleyerness in the first set. He
held his own with Long in the back
court and outplayed him at the net.
The youngster killed from all parts
of the court and his cutoff volleying
was revelation. McLoughlin led at
5-3 and 4015, but lost the ninth game.
Long put up a stubborn fight, but his
clever young opponent was too strong
for him at the finish and took the
tenth game and the set.
In the early part Of the second set
Mclaughlin grew rather careless
his one fault in tournament play
and for a time his errors were fre-
quent. Long was quick to take ad-
vantage of the respite and ran the
score up TO So in his favor. At this
stage of the game Mclaughlin settled
down to hard work, taking the next
five games straight. The coast cham
pion employed all his skill. but II
proved of no avail. In the tenth game
Long led at 40-15 and twice had van
tage. His opponent was always there
in a pinch and put up whirlwind
finish.
LONG TAKES THIRD SET.
Long was by no means discouraged
after losing the first two sets. He went
right after the park youngster and
won the third set easily. This was
the only set Of the four that was one
sided. Mclaughlin slowed down a
trife. while Long improved materially.
The champion started of well in the
fourth set and it seemed almost a GER
tainty he would make it ''sets ALL" He
was constantly in the lead and an

at 5-3 but, as in the second set Nc
