ARRANGE FOR AUTO RACES.
Roads Being Overhauled for Wander
bilt and Other Events.

NEW YORK, August 13.-With the first
of the autumn's big road races less than
two months away the Motor Cups Hold
ing Company is rapidly completing the
many details necessary for the successful
staging of the events. Both the Wander
bilt cup and the Grand Prize events,
scheduled for October ! and 10. 'reSpec-
lively, will be started at daylight. The
grandstand and official stand and parking
space Enclosures will be brilliantly illumi-
mated practically all night the Fridays
preceding the two events. The Parkway
road surface is being overhauled and put
In Al condition for the two events. Con-
tracts are being let for the decorating Of
the stands in an artistic manner. The
station;ng of buglers at points on the
course particularly at the grandstand. to
notify spectators of the approach of a
car will be duplicated this year.
The county and town authorities of Mas
sau county are cooperating with the
Long Island Motor Parkway and the Mo-
tor Cups Holding Company to improve
the highways leading to the grandstand.
Road surfaces are being repaired and will
later be treated with oil. BY an arrange
ment with the Long Island Motor Park
way the Cups company has arranged TO
open q large field west of the grandstand
for the use of the general public. No
charge will be made for cars entering
this field: a nominal charge of 81 per per-
son will be made for those who enter the
field whether occupying automobiles or
on foot.

RACING STILL ALIVE
Game Has Been Killed in New
York Only.
Baked Ground Spells Golf.

NEW YORK, August b. - The an
nouncement that racing in this state
would come TO an end August 81 at Sara
toga will enable horsemen to lay plans
for the fall and winter earlier than ever
before. Already it appears that there
will be continuous racing outside OF
New York state, Yet within easy reach
of the local tracks, where hundreds Of
horses are stabbed. When Saratoga
winds up 1t is probable that Fort Erie
across the border from Buffalo. will open
for six days. Montrears Blue Bonnets
course Will follow with seven days from
September 10 to September Il, after
which. in addition to other meetings in
Canada, Pmlico is booked for a fall
meeting early in October-in fact, earlier
than usual-while the Kentucky tracks
at Louisville, Latonia and Lexington will
provide plenty of sport.
The curta iinent of the eastern season
probably means that winter meetings
will begin sooner than usual. Juarez
Mex, has planned a meeting of one
hundred days, beginning early in Novem-
Der, and Oakland has sent out notice
to horsemen that the sport will begin
there November l., to run probably
until April /. Jacksonville, too will have
a long session, opening about the middle
Of November and extending until some
time in March. Jamestown. Va, is eX-
pected to fill in the time between the
close of Pimlico and the opening of the
winter campaign, although the promoter
of that enterprise has not made known
his plans. When the jamestown spring
meeting closed loss was recorded, but
it was said at the time that another
meeting would be held about November

all agree-at or 3 o'clock in the atter-
noon, or 9 or 10 am, where oout Is
scheduled for the afternoon.
While the new set of weights IS Favored
by the ma jority, still the writer believes
two changes would work to advantage
that is, to make the featherweight IL
at 3 o'clock and the lightweight 1o3 at
or : o'clock. This would bring the
feathers in at about 10 anu the HSnt-
weights 135 ringside.
1t is very probable that from the ABOVE
scales Of weights some one Will be aDle
to draft a new compromise set that Will
meet with general favor. We trust so.

DIFFICULT FOR MINOR
LEAGUES TO GET MEN
Must Wait With a Net and Catch
those Discarded From the
Majors.

NEW YORK, August 13.-It is hard fol
an American Association team to land de-
sirable ball players. There are plenty o,
big league scouts in the grandstand In
Louisville. The other day six scouts
representing the American and Naiona
leagues descended upon Louisville. and
while of course, each team can lose only
one man by the draft route. they are
forced to sell in order to beat the draft
price.
On the other hand, there isn't great
deal Of material for the American Asso-
he has two men on the road sizing them
up. but every time they report anything
promising an investigation shows that the
"phenom' is either rusticating on some
big league farm or has been sold. AS a
matter of fact, the American Association
owners must wait with net and catch
the big leagues discards. They must
grab undeveloped material that isn't quite
fast enough at the present time for the
Johnson and Lynch organizations.
But the time will come when we will
have an even break" says Daniel Shay

it would make a better game" says Dan
lei. You never saw a pitcher go to the
bat in your life that the crowd didn't
lose hope. They don't expect a pitcher
to hit the ball and they rarely do. Then
with a pitcher only pitching he'll do bet

More Secret Practice Likely.

There is good reason for believing that
there will be an unusual amount of secret
practice this fall That was the result
four years ago. The success of the new
plays then depended upon the skill and
invention of the coaches. There was
nothing in the foot ball of the past to
guide them and their success had TO be
measured by their originality. COnse-
quently most of the big college teams
worked behind closed gates. The same
conditions exist now. and no team is like
ly to contribute willingly any information
to its rivals.
AS a preliminary to the fall practice
foot ball coaches have seen TO il that
their candidates did a good deal OF work
during the summer. At Harvard and
Yale the coaches outlined a course of
work to he followed by the candidates
during their vacation Because of the late
date when the foot ball rules were finally
changed the coaches were not able to hold
the usual preliminary spring practice.
