Grand Rapids, July 30.-The largest

The speediest was Stetbrino Lads 2.04 IA lin the third heat of the POT pace The average time for fifteen heats was l2.06 9-15.
 Every race was featured by split heats and torrid finishes. Warner Hall. lfavorite in the POT pace, never landed better than second, Iowa Todd showing the way in the first and Rodney's Stet- primo Lad winning the three subse- Quent heats.

The Indiana horse showed justification for this con- fidence only in the first heat which he won with ease. In the second heat. a rush by Tenara landed the Madden enHy winner and brought the time down to POS 9-4, which constituted race record for a trotter at Com Istock track. This record endured only until the next heat in the POS trot, when the Texas mare, Cheney, clipped half a second from the mark putting lit at 2.04 3-4. This last figure is also the fastest mile trotted by a mare on any track this season.
 Tenara. despite her evident lame ness, outgamed and outstepped the field in the third and fourth heats, thereby gaining the long end of the heavy purse.
 Cheney favorite in the POS trot fulfilled expectations after dropping the first heat to Marigold. hard driven by Murphy.

Mack Thistle, in the first heat. won handily in 2.05 3-5. He repeated in the second in a full second faster time. The unexpected happened in the third heat, when Strathstorm nosed out Mack Thistle, then just at dusk this performance was repeated and the race was declared over until Thursday.

PLANNING woRLp SERIES.
Ban Johnson and the National Com mission Beginning to Dope Things Out.

Although neither the American nor the National league pennant is the personal property of any particular club as yet Ban Johnson and the other members of the National com mission are beginning to plan for the worlds series of 1913. The American league executive during his recent visits to this city said:
 While the Athletics have a big lead at present nothing is certain in base hall | noticed that Mack is still seek ing pitchers, so I guess I'm safe in saying that he is not yet ready to sit back and wait for the National league winners onslaught Cleveland, Wash tngton and Chicago are all very much fin the race, strengthening their teams and ready to take advantage of the slightest slip on the part of the Ath- leJics-
 The second division clubs have a habit of proving very troublesome to the leaders in the second half of the season. and you never can tell when one or more of them is going to start a winning spurt- Boston and New York have both had more than their share of handicaps of one kind or another and ] look for them to get going in earnest in the near future. Personally. l have great faith in Frank Chance and believe he is all ready building up a strong club for next year. ltG IS great dtQulSlliOn lO our lea gue and will prove his value to the New York club before the season M completed"
 President Johnson also stated that in case the Athletics and Giants did win their respective league champion ships the worlds series games would be played .en alternate days in New York ard Philadelphia. Should the winning teams be separated by g grca.tr distance of travel than these two yities; then the series would be r'-yed two games at home and two abroad. Another item of news was to the effect that hereafter all umpires In the worlds series would receive S1.00T each for their work in accord snce with the policy established after @he close of the 1912 play.
 According to Johnson. interest in the worlds title play this autumn will he keener than ever before. He stated that applications for series seats are already being received from many parts of the states and foreign coun- tries.

 ANYWHERE BEHIND LINE
Quick Kicking from Behind Forwards Expected to Feature the Seasons R[aM

New York. July 30.-The Intercol- legiate football rules as promulgated at the football rules committee today show changes in the gridiron code for the season of 1913. The majority of the alterations were technical and will have little effect upon the game this autumn. The most inIbrtant change is the rule which permits. the kicker to stand at any distance from the line of scrimmage when kicking.t instead of at least five yards in the rear of the scrimmage line. Under the new regulations it is expected that quick kicking from directly behind the for wards will be a feature of the play the coming season.
