TIE YALE AUTO MEET. FOLBERTH A WINNER Lawrence Phipps, Shelf. Junior, Wins College
 Championship.

Branford Driving park was the scene of an exceptionally large crowd and splendidly fast auto races Saturday afternoon. The races were not mark ed by spills, as is generally the case, and everything was carried out in fine order,
 A special train brought a crowd to the races, but the majority arrived in motor cars. The usual scene at these events was again apparent, 1 The races were all of a snappy and stirring order. Lawrence c. Phipps, the plucky Sheffield junior, won the college championship by fast driving in his S5-horsepower Stoddard- Dayton Car. Phipps won the first heat in 4;9S flat against w. J. Morden and G. w Townsend, and won the second and final heat in 4:32 flat, against Morden $ 4:SS S-5 and Townsends 4;47 4-5 This race was easily the star event. All three men took turns at high speed Phipps and Townsend were neck and meek on the fourth lap and in making the lower turn Phipps narrowly escap- ed colliding with Townsend's huge Thomas.
 The record time for the day was thai made by M. w. Folberth, profession al driver, in a 35-horsepower Oldsmo. bile the three-mile open being won by him in 4;26.
 The only thing which marred the events was the howl made by c. s Johnson, of the University garage Nwho, when clearly defeated by Fol. berth, claimed that the latter had cut him off at one of the turns. Colonel N G. Osborn and Frank G. P. Barnes, tht Judges, to whom this protest was re ferred disallowed 1t, and Johnson made several insinuating remarks Colonel Osborn then remarked that i any more remarks were made by John son he would be disqualified. Johnso, attempted to enter the finals but the judges told him that his cars had beer disqualified. After some protestatior Johnson left the field.
