GREATEST CARD
FOR MEET
At MOTORDROME

TACK PRINCE has put the kibosn
on the Richards Mcneil First
- Prize Trust that has been COB
bling all the fat money out at the
local MotOrdrome. And he did it very
simply. He Just changed the pro-
gram a bit
The Hea was that by eliminating
Richards and Mcneil from the
sweepstakes and the purse. grand
races would be produced 1t would be
wise man who could pick the win
ner, with those two out.
But, of course. the public wants to
see Mcneil and Richards take an
other shot at their celebrated war
fare for first honOrs. In consequence
these two have been matched for d
miles.
Match Race a Wonder.
The match races win give the Mo-
tordrome patrons their first chance to
see Mcneil and Richards fight it out
TO determine the stirring question
of supremacy between the famous In
dian No. 2S and the ]. A. P. motor.
Out of six attempts Richards has won
four times. Mcneil twice. But Rich
ards has never won when McNeil's
motor was right And on the other
faltered, while the Jap gets out of
order like a delicate stomach.
1t is likely that those spOrtively in
clined will make this event the medi-
UNI of a plunge. The riders at the
track have put Up enough so that the
losers in the wagering game win kick
away the proceeds of a weeks work.
The present odds are even. The wise
laos believe that the J, A. P. motor
is faster but that it will hardly last
through three three mile heats. Any
way. it is great wagering oppor-
tunity.
Races Are Wide Open Now.
With Mcneil and Richards out of
the sweepstakes and the purse they
Immediately become great races
With those two men in, ii is moder-

interest would be in the contest be-
tween the two of them But this
contest has been taken out and will
be run off by itself. And it's any
bOdy's race in the main event
One particularly good feature of
the purse and the sweepstakes is that
there will be four riders in each of
the two preliminary heats. Two rid
ers in each heat will qualify for the
finals. There viii, therefore. be four

All Have Chance.
The riders who have a chance at
the two main prizes will he about as

Harry SwaTtz, Henry Lewis and Har-
ry Glenn are about evenly matched.
OF course, Graves and Renel look par
ticularly dangerous, but the winner
may turn up among the other six
riders.
Anyway, it will be a great race.
With four riders in each heat, with
the two most dangerous competitor
removed to a match race and with
virtually a new layout, there will be

For the match race the largest
purse of the season has been offered,

Schmidt Won Praise Of BritonS
Youthful Golfer Makes Big Hit

THE British press has devoted
columns Of comment on the
personality and playing of
Heinrich Schmidt, the Massachusetts
golfer. who came so near defeating
Harold Hilton, the English crack, in
the recent tournament over the ST
Andrews links
1t was SchmidtS great match with
Harold II. Hilton, once more the
British champion, that caused the
sensation.

as follows: The latter (SchmidD

strain: Apart from the wonderful

nineteenth-green to the famous am

The American Peril"
Another critic gives this apprecia-
ton OF the American: only those
who saw it can realize how very
imminent was the American periI.
Certainly there were two further
lines of defense behind Mr.. Hilton,
but neither Of them could be con-
sidered proof against Mr.. Schmidt's
deadly, calculating. resolute on
s4aught What might have happened
it is impossible to say. but il was
at any rate with sigh of profound
est tha0kfulness that the crowd saw
lne gallant young American beaten,
and the frantic cheers for Mr. Hill
ton were the highest possible com
pliment to Mr.. Schmidt; not that
they did not cheer mr.. Schmidt, for
he had great reception at the fin
ish. He is very far from being an
attractive golfer to watch His
swing. though wonderfully true and
sound, lacks grace, and the really
appalling slOWnesS of his preliminary
inspections, coEita tions and trial
swings makes great demand on
the patience Of opponents and spec
tatOrs. Nevertheless his plucky,
modest. quiet manner and his in
dubitable skin won the crowd in spite
Of themselves. and if America can

more youns players just as good as
