Kentucky State Racing Commission
that officials of the Latonia Racing As

SEEKING TO REVIVE LONG
DISTANCE HORSE RACES.

NEW YORK, Feb. IAN effort is
being made to revive long-distance
horse races in this country. The prin-
cipal advocate of the races that demand
speed, endurance and courage is one
of the latest patrons of h turf
Thomas Fortune Ryan. The traction
magnate has been consulting some of
the stewards of the Jockey Club on
the subject and trying to inject into
them some of his enthusiasm for this
particular branch of racing.
This subject of long-distance races,
the four-mile kind-heats, too, if horse
men will see it that way--is a hobby
with Mr.. Ryan. He has a deeply
rooted conviction that races over long
routes are the contests BETTING thor
oughbreds, AND not the present day
sprints of five six and seven %furlongs.

Newark Men Put Trans-Passaic
Boys Out OF Cup
Tie.

SN NAN
muddy condition of the field at
Weidenmayer's Park did not
daunt the aydor of the members of the
West Hudson and the Scottish-Amer-
lean soccer teams, who were eager to
get back into action yesterday and de-
eide their ga1ne in the third round of
the American Cup .tie competition,
after a delay of seven weeks because
of the weather and Il G s-now-covered
fields.
AS a result of the game the Scots,
who were looked upon as sure losers to
the fast West Hudson aggregation, up
set expectations and came out vic
torious by a score of | to 0, securing
revenge on the West Hudsons for a
defeat administered in a National
League game a few months ago and
putting them out of the competition.
The victory enables the Scottish-Amer-
leans to enter the fourth round of the
competition and gives their chances for
the winning of the championship cup
a decidedly rosy hue. Their victory,
too, was scored without the assistance
of their captain, George Richardson,
nor the services of McNichol inc
Fisher.
In the first half both teams came
near scoring a goal, but the clever
work of both goalkeepers prevented a
tally. Several times the West Hudson
forward carried the ball down the field
to a point within the shadows of the
Scots ~goal-posts, but their attempt to
net the sphere were always prevented
by Epslin, who was constantly on the
jump, listing and booting the sphere
out of danger whenever his goal was
assailed. The work Of Miller and Galley
was also instrumental in preventing a
score by the ~red-garbed players. A

Hans Holmer, who is also q starter in
this race, has made the fifteen miles in

Acoose, the Indian, has beaten Hol-

from start to finish. Jim Crowley
claims that in his present condition he
can run rings around Holmer, and

The West Hudsons tried hard to tie

TIC avo confusion inc a heap of YER
bal by-play on the part of experts who
are trying to explain ava a seeming
discrepancy it would be wise for those
who have any part in a six-day bicycle
pool to decide on rules regarding the
disposition of the money. This applies
to pools only. There is no question of
Judgment. A wise solution of the prob
lem would be to divide the money be-
tween the men who hold the names of
the newly constructed teams. 1t doesn't
seem right in a pool to give the money
and the honors to a team that finished
second because in no case is that team
entitled to the money. 1t is just the
same to them as If some other intact
team had finished first. They won
nothing out second place honors.
Individual bets where judgment is
concerned are different matters Inc re-
duire their own solution, A fair way
out of the disposition Of. the pools, I'M
less you agree to have the team that
comes in second win, is to divide the
money.
