JOCKEY AND OWNER
SUSPENDED AT SPA
Ban Put on McGraw and
McElroy Decided at Meet
ing of Stewards.

Saratoga, N. Y, Aug. 16 - The
stewards of the race meeting here
took prompt action following the
form somersaults of Wednesday. They
met in the clubhouse before the first
race yesterday and suspended the Ii
cense of Jockey S. McGraw and or
dered all future entries of Thomas
McElroy refused. They also placed
the ban on the two-year-old f1lly
Dancing Carnival. This action re-
suited from the victory OF Dancing
Carnival in the first race ednesWday.
The filly is owned by McElroy. and
McGraw rode her.
On Monday Dancing Carnival was
asgracefully beaten after weak ride
by MeGraw. Wednesday she ran like
champion and McGraw rode like a
LOTUS.
While Dancing CarnivaTs somer-
sault was a tall and lofty one, there
were several others Wednesday and
one yesterday that reused the wrath
| of the racegoers. In the fifth race
yesterday, which was won in a gallop
by &C. T. Worthington's iva America,
the Cleveland Stables bay mare Dor
cas- ran like a dray horse. Viva
America ran as expected and gave a
good account of herself.
Dorcas never was in the hunt and
was beaten nearly a sixteenth of a
| mile. Under an easy ride Viva
| America earned first honors by a
length and a half from Joseph E.
Widener's imported flIy Memories.
Dorcas was the only other starter.
The track was cuppy, but Viva
America stepped the distance in
1889 1-5.
The Catskill, a selling affair at
seven furlongs, was the feature of the
bay horse Startling. He was at his bes
and with the light impost of Ill
pounds fairly few over the course and
finished four lengths in front of J. B.
Goodman's Bribed Voter. Slippery
Elm was third. Startling covered the
seven furlongs in the fast time OF
1925 rs.
Although the race was worth $4,000
to the winner, it was not very progt-
able one for Carman. When Starring
returned to the auction block San
Doggett was on hand to bid him up
The horse was entered to be sold for
$500, and when offered for sale
Doggett said $4,000. When this was
topped by Carman with an additional
SIS offer Doggett raised the price tc
$4,000. This was not enough and
Startling returned to his old barn.
Lord Brighton, the two-year-old
son of Ballot and Miss Crittenden
which early in the year ran his way
to the top rung of the juvenile cham
pionship ladder, showed traces of his
best form in the second race, a handi-
cap at five and a half furlongs. He
carried 126 pounds and defeated a bis
field of good -year-olds. That he
earned premier honors was due to 6
great ride by Lawrence Lyke. The
noted jockey put up a great finish ant
managed to land Lord Brighton pas
the judges a neck in front of Harry
Payne Whitney's Sticking, which
took place honors by the narrowes
margin from H. H. Hewitt's Ginger.

and when Zim hit to Blackburne,
Cueto muffed the throw to second for
a force play. McCarty's single then
sent in Fletcher.
The eighth started harmlessly
enough when Steele famed Luque, but
after that came the deluge. Gron
walked, and singles by Neale and
Roush filled the bases. Steele had
three balls and no strikes on Magee#
when he was derricked in favor of
Demaree. =
AL got over one strike and then
walked Magee, forcing in Groh. Cueto
followed with a single, scoring Neale,
while Grifiths single drove in Roushs
and Magee. Then Causey came in
and he walked Blackburne, filling the
bases again, while Wingos Sacrifices
fly sent in Cueto with the tying runs
Luque, up the second time, famed for
the second time in the inning.

Runaway Colt Secures One
Hit Out of Five Times Up
Giants Lead by so
Score in Eighth When
Reds Make Rally and Win
Pastime Steele Against
Luque.

Cincinnati, Aug. 16 - The Giants
ran into smashing counter attack by
the Reds yesterday afternoon in the
eighth. After they had been five runs
behind the locals tied the score. Neale
crossed with the winning run in the
ninth on a wild pitch by Caussy, Gin
cinnati winning by to S. The Giants
started their third Western trip with
defeat, just as they had on their first
and second swings around the circuit.
Even the presence of Corporal
Benny Kauff in centre field was I'M
able to swing the game into the Giant
colmn. Benny is on Is days leave
from Camp Sherman and is going to
spend his vacation with the Giants.
Hitting against soldier itchers has not
sharpened Benny's batting eye and
he got only one hit off Luque in five
times up.
The Giants had II hits for II bases,
against seven singles for the Reds,
but Matty's men clustered most of
their bingles in one savage attack. Up
to the eighth inning Southpaw Steele
permitted only two hits, but then
bingles began to fall all around him.
Al Demaree was rushed in and he
was worse than Steele, the Reds feast
Ing on his delivery. Causey was
rushed in to save Al, but he,. too, was
! bloomer.
Neale walked with one out in the
ninth and Roush sent him to third
with single, his third hit. Caussy
then let fly wild pitch, which rolled
to the stand and Neale crossed with
the winning run.
Luque was hit hard early in the
game but steadied. He did his best
work in the fourth when Steele open
ed with a triple. Luque tossed out
Burns at first and then famed Young
and Kauff.
The Giants got aboard Luque for
three runs in the first inning. With
one out Young triled to left centre
and scored when Kauff drove a single
asst Cueto. Doyle doubled to right
sending Ben to third. and Fletcher
| scored the pair with a single.
They got another in the third Son
| Zimmerman's single and a double by
Sticking. The fifth New York run was
scored IN the fifth. Fletcher walked,

Navy Men First
on the GridirOn

Annapolis, Md. Aug. 16.---The Ma
val Academy was first on the football
field for 1918 when over 100 members
Of the new class Of midshipmen re-
ported to Gilmore Dobie, the coach,
yesterday afternoon.
The squad will be at least doubled
when the youngsters are released
from other branches of athletics in
which they are engaged. While most
Of the material is light, there is fair
proportion of heavier youths, and
about ten reported that they weighed
upwards of $50 pounds.
Dobie talked to the youths and told
them to be persistent in their work
and not to be discouraged if they4 did
not make the team at once or even
the first year.
This week will be spent in fitting
out the candidates. and there will be
daily practice until the season is over.
The main squad will report about

Harvey to Manage
Champion Lewis

The proposed championship match
between Ted kid" Lewis and Benny
Leonard, which is being sought by
every boxing promoter in the East,
still is hanging fire. The big match

placed all his business affairs in the
hands of Charley Harvey

brought Lewis from Australia and
stamped him an Al fighter. The vet
eran manager saw Lewis knock out
Paul Til in London for the European
championship.
A meeting will be held today be-
tween Harvey and Billy Gibson, and
the best offer for the Lewis-Leonard
bout will be accepted.
