Miss Bartlett
Victor in High
Dive Contest

Miss Josephine Bartlett, of the New
York Women's Swimming Association,
the metropolitan diving champion, won
the national A. A. U. high diving title
yesterday at Throg's Neck, on Long
Island Sound, with the splendid score
CT 1913 points.
Mrs. Bertha Tompkins, team mate
Of Miss Bartlett's. took second with
e94 points, and Miss Alice Lord, of
Rye, N. Y, girl under sixteen, fin
ished third. with 87.S points.
The title contest was held under the
supervision Of the New York Women s
Swimming Association, and proved the
hest ever seen around here from the
regulation 22-foot platform. Miss
Bartlett. although just recovering
from an attack Of sickness, gave q
beautiful exhibition, without q
Eoor dive in the entire list of
four compulsories and six specialties.
Mrs Tompkins also dived exception
ally we'll. and little Miss Lord showed
remarkable repertory of difficult
dives, which promises to make her a
dangerous rival to any fair diver in
the country when she has had time to
give her york little more smoothness
and finish.
A swimming programme was origin
ally arranged to be run off in conjunc-
ton with the diving championship, but
the cold weather of the past week
caused the events to be postponed.
They will be held later indoors.

In charge of Squad B is Surgeon

Games are wanted by the midship-

have already been taken to fill these
dates. Pennsylvania State and the
University of West Virginia are both
wanted at the Academy. State has al
ways been u favorite opponent of the
midshipmen, and there has been much
regret that it has not appeared on the
Nays schedule recently.

1t is of interest to note that Bczdek,
who coaches State. used to coach the
University of Oregon when Dobie was
at the helm for the University of
Washington, its leading rival.
The University of West Virginia
was the only team which defeated the
Midshipmen last year. OF course.
the navy lads would like another
chance. West Virginia has written
that it will reach decision on the
navy game this week
It's schedule already includes Pitts
burgh, Washington and jefferson, Rut-
gers and the Army, and it is an open
secret that the mountaineers are out
for the championship Of the East 1t
is claimed here that they cannot claim
it without considering the midship-
men.
There has been no change as to
the prospects of the Army Navy game
The matter is entirely in the hands Of
the Secretaries of War and the Navy,
and these gentlemen have made no an
nouncement. They may decide to take
up the matter, or they may say moth
ing and let the game go by default.
AT any rate. both service teams are
keeping the date-November 23--open.

No Classes for
Docked Horse
AtCarden Show
Long Tailed Thoroughbred
Type to Dominate Big
Exhibit

In making up the prize list soon to
be issued for the National Horse Show,
which opens at Madison Square Garden
November IL, all classes for docked
saddle horses have been eliminated, the
type having become so nearly extinct
that the few shown hereafter will have
to compete in the same classes with
long-tailed horses of the thoroughbred
type which now dominate the show
rags and the bride paths of Central
Park.
This action of the association is
deemed to mark the passing of the old
time New York type of saddle horse
which held undIsnuted sway in the
early days of the Horse Show, back in
1903 and for many years afterward
-, The beginning of The end came when
Vivian Gooch, of Windsor, England,
was engaged to judge at the Garden
about fifteen years ago. He pronounced
the American saddle horses too Char
Messy meaning they looked like har-
ness horses, and in judging he gave the
principal prizes to a few long-tailed
horses of the thoroughbred type ex-
hlblted by horsemen who knew what
the English expert liked
owners and admirers of the brilliant
actloned, high styled, docked horses
raised commotion over Gooch's revo-
lutionary awards, but the association
stood behind him, and he came back
year after year, until the English type
was firmly established here.
Exhibitors of docked horses threat
ened to go on strike when the tide be-
gan TO run strongly against them, and
the National Horse Show Association
then poured oil on the troubled waters
by making separate classes for dockcd
and unlocked saddle horses.
Entries in the latter increased from
year to year, while the others fell off
steadily, until last season they were
noticeably few, and now they have been
abandoned, probably for good. Experts
say that not more than half dozen
docked saddle horses are likely to be
SHOWN this season, while there may be
hundreds of the now fashionable Eng
lish type.
