HARRY KNIGHT
MEETS DEATH
IN AUTO RACE

u OLYMPUS, OHIO, July S.
| We'll just this once more and
I'm done" said Harry Knight
as he slipped under his steering
wheel of his racing car yesterday and
prepared to line up for the 2OO-mile
race.
on the 10th lap Knight was
thrown from his car as the result
Of a blown tire and was run over and
killed by the car driven by Johnny
Jenkins, his best friend. Milton
Michaelis, his mechanician. was so
seriously injured that he died soon
after. Both men claimed Atlanta as
their home, though both came orig
inally from indianapolis.
The death of Knight resulted from
an accident similar to the one that
gave him the title Of THE Hero of
the indianapolis Track" On this oc-
casion Knight drove his car into the
concrete wall surrounding the track
to avoid running over a man who had
fallen from a car.
Knight had been officially declared
out of the race, owing to time lost
as n result Of engine trouble, but
despite the fact that he had no
chance for the prizes he insisted on
continuing the race. Almost in front
of the grandstand a tire blew, the car
swerved, went over, righted-throw-
ing both men to the ground. Jen-
kins, who was chasing Knight, went
over his body. Knight was terribly
mangled and died instantly.
Ralph Milford won the race. break
Ing the worlds record for 200 miles
on dirt track. He won the distance
in hours q minutes and 4S seconds.
The previous best time was made on
the Columbus track by Spencer Wis
hart in 3 hours % minutes and 4 12

CARTER SEEMS
SURE To WIN
s. A. TOURNEY

A UGUSTA, GA, July Be. V.
"A Carter, Jr., of Atlanta, seems
sure to be the man who will
face Nat Thornton, of Atlanta, in the
challenge round of the South At
lantic tennis tournament. Friday af-
ternoon Carter and Ramspeck man
aged to play two sets and ten games
of the third, when darkness made Il
postponement necessary. The score
stood one all in sets and 5-5 IN
games, but Carter seemed to be hav-
ing all the better of it. Best three
out of five sets" must be played TO
decide the winner.
The best tennis playing of the
tournament was on tap when the
crack Atlanta pair clashed. Ram
speck, warmed up by playing in the
doubles with Orr against Warning
and Warning, won the first four games
and 1t looked as if he would win the
championship. However, his form
was not so good after that. Carter,
who hadn't warmed up thoroughly
when the first set ended, got better
and better.
The playing was witnessed by the
largest gallery llldl IDS bSch pl0Stht
during the tournament and each play
er was given the glad hand for his
uncanny work with the racquet.
The first set was won by Ram
speck, ga; the second by Carter, 81.
Ramspeck and Orr were eliminated
from the contest for the doubles
championship when they were de-
feated by Warning and Waring, Of
South Carolina, 3-6, 6-3, GA.
Garrett and Gary of Augusta, who
defeated the Erwin brothers 63 and
8-6, enter the finals with the War
ings on Saturday afternoon.
Capers defeated CrOcheron 81 and
Ga in the consolation mems singles
and will meet the winner of the
White Roseman match Saturday af-
ternoon for the championship.
In the mixed doubles Miss Adger
and Erwin defeated Mrs. Milan and
Reynolds rs, 60.
Nat Thornton, champion last year
of the S. A. L. tournament is to meet
the winner of the Ramspeck- Carter
match probably Saturday afternoon.

PIRATES GOOD
HURLERS FAIL
To LIFT TEAM

OF. LOUIS, July 5.-For the first
time in thirteen years, the Pitts
~ burg club is in the second di-
vision as late as June %. During
Fred Clarkes regime in the camp or
the Corsairs, the club never has fin
ished worse than fourth. The low
water mark was reached in 1904. He
has won four pennants and finished
second or third on all other occasions.
Consequently the Smoketown fans are
unable to reconcile themselves to the
present lowly position of the team
which in advance of the season was
said to possess just one more pennant
kick.
Second division clubs are as I'M
usual in Pittsburg S first division
entries are in St. Louis. The Pirate
fans get Just as excited over their
team being in fifth place as local
shouters would if either the Cards or
Browns burrowed their way into the
exclusive quartet at the top of the
heap. For that reason there is trouble
in the Pittsburg camp.
Just a Few Reasons.
Asked for a reason for the Pirates
fall-down. one of the players placed
the blame on Jinx which has pursued
the club with a deal of perseverance.
Here are a few pertinent facts:
WAGNER was on the shelf from
April 10 until late in May.
Gibson broke his ankle at Rob-
ison Field on April 20 and hasn't
played since.
Simon and Kelly stubbed their
fingers and are unable to work.
A pickup catcher, Coleman,
from Davenport, Iowa, is doing all
the work.
Butler spraine6 his ankle and
missed II games.
Bobby Byrne had long batting
slump in May.
Wagner again is laid up with a
lame ankle.
Artie Hoffman deteriorated into
minor Lacquer and was re-
leased.
so there you are" said the analy-
list. I'VE have had good pitching,r he
continued. "O'Toole has developed
into star. Adams has been going
great. SO have Camnitz and, at times,
Hendrix. We have made our share
Of hits, as our batting average will
prove, but we lacked that punch
which is necessary to win. We re-
Gently lost six successive games by
a margin of one run. We were losing,
and couldn't get break. One error
a day would be injected at the wrong
time. costing US defeat. 1t was pretty
tough going"

URGED

Urging still further that the name
"Schofield Barracks" be changed to
Fort Leilehua, Territorial Secretary e.
A. Mott-Smith, in a letter to Lindley
M. Garrison, secretary of war, points
out that for years a custom has pre-
vailed throughout the United States of
naming posts with a view to preserv-
ing historical and local names we'll
known to and in way household
words among the people. The terri
torial secretary in again requesting
the secretary of war to consider
house concurrent resolution No. 5,
asking that the name be changed,
gives as examples of posts named ac-
cerding to this custom: Forts Walla
Walla, Missoula, Apache, Constitution,
Huachuca, Omaha, Yellowstone, As
sinniboine, Washable, Barrancas, De
Soto and others. @. ..:~.:.
Mott-Smith declares in his letter
that Leilehua is name that has been
in use for years in Oahu and that for
this reason it. seems to be especially
for the post now building
on the Leilehua tract. -, :-.. IN.
In his first reply to a letter bring
ing to his attention the request to
change the name of the fort, Secretary
Garrison replied that it is not custom
airy to limit the, designation of fortifi-
cations to local names, and that Scho-
field Barracks has already been desig-
mated in honor of the late General
Schofield. I .""-.
