From an American standpoint interest

Postboy is the representative Ameri-

x That the winner of the Grand Ma

is twice around the Aintree course, Civ,
ing a distance Of close to four and one

most picturesque events of the English
turf year and an extremely trying one
upon the entries. But a small percent
age Of the starters cross the finish line
for the long course with its difficult
going and jumps proves too much for
all but the most powerful and perfectly

This race, first run in 1889, has beer
held without a lapse for seventy-si,
years The largest number of starter
was in the years 1850 and 1909, wher
thirty-two jumpers went away for tho

F(lRTY-FVE HOMERUNS

When Buck Freeman slammed out
twenty Eve eircnit drives with the

record that has stood for fifteen sea
sons in the major leagues. Frank
Schultz, the Cub smgger, came within
hailing distance Of Freeman's record
when Ihe slammed the pill for twenty
one fonr-ply wallops in 1911, writes En-
nest y. Lanigan.
In 1918 Cravath pounded the sphere
fol- nineteen homers and repeated this
performance last season, when he again
circIed the bases with nineteen Of these
long drives. ..."1s..
Sherwood, Magee, the ex -Philly, who
will join the Braves at reporting time,
clouted the pellet for fifteen home runs
in 1914. Sam Crawford and "Home
Run Baker were tied for the Ameri-
can League honors, having eight home
runs each TO their credit last season.
Iris Speaker, the Red Sox swatter,
only walloped out four homers,, but
with forty six two bag sers and
eighteen triples chalked up on his rec
ord, he led the long distance batters
with 2s7 total bases. Crawford finished
with PSI, Sherwood Magee had 277,
while, Cravath and Baker were tied
with 249 total bases during the season
, of 1914. ~. ...s 500.
When Socks Seybold was member
Of the Athletics in 1902 he slammed the
pellet for sixteen circuit drives, and
this still stands as an American League
record. .e
The record book says the minor
league record for home runs is held by
Perry Werden, who pounded the sphere
for forty-five trips around the circuit
