omar KHAYYAM BEST
after rough riding
Captures Havre de Grace Handicap
After Being Fenced by Smith
on Priscilla Mullens.

Havre de Grace. Nd, Sept. 29.-Wil-
fred Viaud's imported colt. Omar
Khayyam. easily won the Havre de
Grace handicap. at a mile and a fur
long. from Flittergold and Priscilla
Mullens here today. He had TO be
100 pounds the best to win. as Jockey
Smith, on Priscilla Mullens. used ev-
cry effort to put the Niau horse
over the fence at the first turn.
Haynes. on Omar. was all but thrown
over the fence.
1t was the most palpable foul and
dirty riding ever seen on any race
track in America.
The stewards were alert TO Smiths
tactics, and Immediately revoked his
license, and referred his case TO the
Jockey Club for action.
1t is most probable that Smith will
wait long time before he is allowed
to ride again.
Omar ran the distance in 1:53 over a
heavy track, and which is close to
the track record. Had the track been
fast, and barring his misfortune, he
probably would have broken the rec
ord.
To win this race Omar had to be a
great horse, as no horse that met with
the interference he did could possibly
have won.
Favorites had a good day. as FIVE
out OF seven were home first.

Match in Singles at Dunn

Albert J. Gore, of the Dumbarton
Club, who has been knocking at the
door for admission to the charmed
circle of District tennis champions
since Bryan stated running for the
Presidency, came in second again,
losing to Louis l. Doyle, a former
winner, 6-S, 36. 6-3, 12-1O. yester-
day afternoon on the Dumbarton
courts.
Both men played exceptionally good
tennis. In the fourth set the play
was particularly interesting, Gore
leading at one time by two games.
Doyle tied things up a three-all. how
ever. and from then on the adyan-
tage shifted from one side to the
other until the twentieth game, when
Doyle rallied and took the two neces-
sary to give him the match, which
carried with it the 1917 title.
The event will be brought to close
tomorrow, when the two remaining
matches in the doubles will be played,

BATTING IS Large
FACTOR IN SERIES
Stick Work Has Always Proven
Important Role in Title
Games.

Batting has played an important
role in many of the series between
champions Of the major leagues and
will probably be a decisive factor in
the forthcoming struggle between the
Giants and White Sox for world hon.
ors. Just as Frank Baker brought
victory to the Mackmen in their
memorable clash with the Giants in
1913 and Gowdy's bat wrought defeat
for the Mackmen in the series with
the Braves, some player may achieve
glory this year by the driving power
of his mace.
Each club is fortified with powerful
batsmen. Among those of whom the
Sox boast are Eddie Collins. far famed
hero of many a diamond victory; Joe
Jackson, slugger of wide reputation,
and Oscar (Happy) Felsch, who this
year has been a big factor in the
| success of the Chicago team. The
Windy City triumvirate of swat
matches that of any other club in
baseball today. although the season
averages of Collins and jackson are
somewhat below their marks OF pre-
vious years.
New York is more plentifully pro-
vided with batting stars than the
White Sox. Three of the best the
Giants will present will be Benny
Kauff, Lew McCarty, the best bat
ting catcher in the National League,
and George Burns. battle SCARED vet
eran OF many a major league contest
whose batting this season has struck
a high average. OF course the Giant:
have other hard hitters, but It is safe
to say that each one Of the afore.
mentioned trio is certain to shine ir
helping to make the world title safe
for New York.
Pitching always Is ,an importan,
factor in the world series. The rec
ords of title battles of the past are
flled with brilliant achievements OF
the great stars of the mound. But In
the final analysis 1t usually is the bat
that spells victory or defeat The
historic swat rules in all fields OF
sport
Who will deliver the telling blows in
the coming clashes? That is a ques-
ton that is causing more debate
among fans the country over than
any other except the one involving
the winner itself.

Flowers, of Davidson Team,
Runs Seventy Yards for
Touchdown.

Annapolis, Nd. Sept "a brilliant
70-yard run to a touchdown by
Flowers, star half back of Davidson
College, of North Carolina, saved the
Carolinians from a whitewash at the
hands OF the Annapolis midshipmen
in the opening contest Of the football
season this afternoon. Navy, exhibit
ing a more consistent and powerful
attack, won the game handily by a
score of q to 6.
Flowers made his dash that brought
about the score for Davidson in the
early part of the third period. Run
ming from regular formation and be-
hind splendid interference this fleet
footed lad got around Navy's right
wing, shook of a couple OF tacklers,
outran three or four others, and was
not thrown until he had planted the
pigskin behind the coveted goal line
The punt out for a try at goal was a
failure.
The Carolinians fought a dogged
game all the way, but IL early be-
came apparent that the Navy often
sive was much more powerful and
the middies registered two touch
downs in the first period Of play. The
middies are being coached this year
by Gilmour Dobie, who made such a
phenomenal success as the mentor Of
the University Of Washington for a
number Of years. The work OF his
charges in their initial game showed
all earmarks that a fast and pow
erful team will be the result OF his
efforts. The line up and summary:
