George Burns.
BY N, e. BROWN.

The majority of the gray hairs &C
uuired by National league hurlers last
year can be blamed on George Burns,
veteran Giant gardener. He proved to
be the toughest bird In the circuit for
the slab artists to handle. Concrete
evidence proving this Is shown by the
fact that he worked said hurlers for
more passes than anybody else in the
league. He drew eighty-two tickets.
That he was In q class by himself is
shown by the fact that Morris Rath,
Red infielder. the next best man at
drawing transportation, acquired only
sixty-two passes. They played in the
same number Of games.
Burns didn't count entirely on wait
ing out the pitchers either. as his bat
ting average Of 1903 for the season
indicates.
George is regarded as one Of the
best outfielders in the league. He
has been serving McGraw for eight
years, joining the club in 1912. He
began his pro career in Utica. N. Y,
his home town, and went right from
there to Gotham after three years
experience. He has been q consist
emit and timely hitter every year
Three times he has landed in the
cha rmed circle by a few points, in
1914-17-19. He batted around ,.280 the
other-years. He's thirty years old and
is due to shine in the big show several
more seasons before Father Time hol'
lers come hither, Georgia." and sends
him to the minors or some other bust
ness.

and lchiya Kumagae in. the final and
cup round Of the doubles matches at
the Rockaway Hunting Club to-day.
The score was Ga, 3-6, 6--2, 6-3.
The Australians were handicapped
by their failure and inability to play
the net the way the Americans do.
They depended largely on drives from
the back court, and proved easy tar
gets for placements by their opponents.
OF course, they offered strenuous oppo-
sition, and in the second set played so
we'll as to win it. But Wright and Ku
magae quickly rallied and ran off the
next two sets in quick order.
Robert Kinsey overwhelmed Francis

46 Yachts Cross Starting
Line i'm Annual Regatta
Of the Huguenot Club

Although the yacht racing season on
Long Island Sound is rapidly drawing
70 q close, each regatta that is sailed
secs new yachts coming to the starting
line. For the first time this season
the forty-footcrs of the New York
Yacht Club made their racing debut
as class since the summer of 1916,
and the appearance Of two big sloops
added additional interest to the twen-
ty-fourth annual regatta of the HUI
gucnot Yacht Club Yesterday In the
aggregate forty-six yachts crossed the
starting line.
SO light was the wind that the com
mittee decided to postpone the start
for fifteen minutes. The committee
picked course for the larger classes
that sent them twice around "mcrry-
-go-round.' The bio sloops, however,
did not like going twice around the
short course, so sailed a special race
that took them from the starting line
to Oak Neck, to Parsonage Point and
home again. AS the wind came, the
craft had beat and two reaches.
Philip Mallorys Mistrel was the
sons Shewara, sailed by Edmund Fish,
by minutes 6 seconds. Fred Rich
ards's Adois always had the race for
for the 30footers of the New York
Yacht Club we'll in hand. At the end Of
the first round Adois was leading the
fleet. She was clocked at 3:59:15.
Then came Mink at 4:04:30, followed
by Alera at 4:O4:45. During the
second round Mink, which belongs to
L. S. Clarke cut down the lead to Adols
considerably, but was finally beaten by
| minute "A seconds.
Alan Clarke, brother of the owner
of Mink. won in the U class. He sailed
his Feather After the race Feather
was protested by w. r. Hornidge,
owner of Tern. which finished second.
1t was claimed that Feather used new
sails that have not as yet been meas
urcd.
Although she finished second veda
won in the second division of the
handicap class. In the third division
the winner was Robin Hood III. Bar
bara was the first of the Larchmont
Inter Club yachts home The Huguenot
SPECIAL class was won by Dippcr Kat

was the first of the Star yachts home.

J <
race ever shown by a three-year- r-old
in the history Of the American turf
He picked up 120 pounds and simply
flew through the mile and a quarter
Journey rather. a mile of it. For
he was eased through the last furlong
to hold his advantage OF dozen
lengths. He stepped the mile and
quarter. we were going TO say, in the
wonderful time of :02 As, which was
only one-ffth of second behind the
performance of Andrew Miller's grand
old Roamer on opening day one year
ago.
Had there been anything in the field
OF six that faced the starter to make
Wilson's colt extend himself through
/ the last furlong there is little or no
doubt that Roamers record would have
/ been at least bettered, if not, indeed,
soundly beaten. Under pressure, Han
nibal might have clipped several frac-
tions off his performance.
Leads by Big Margin
Hannibal simply flew for the first
ten lengths in front of War Pennant,
Of the Commander j. K L Ross barn,
the only one able TO keep within hail
ing distance. War Pennant, which
took the place from Thunderclap by
at least half dozen lengths, was dizzy
and falling away at the end, though
Hannibal was under restraint and
eascd to a canier through the last
sixteenth.
Buddy Ensor, who rode Hannibal,
displayed excellent horsemanship p
throughout the long test His judg-
ment of pace was fauress. for though
he was notching records all the way
or practically so-h;s mount was al
ways we'll within himself; never more
than at the very end.
Hannibal carried the bunch to the
mile, for instance, in l 80 3-5, which
was only two-fifths away from the
worlds record around turns established d
by the great Sun Briar a year ago and
notched again at the present meeting
Here is the fractional time of the race
by eighths: O:l22-5. o:24, 0:35 2-s
0:47 4-5, 0:593-5, 1:12, l:21 Is
1885 2-5, 1:49 40 and 2:02 As.
This wasn't such a spectacular race
as the Spinaway. It wasn't q race at
all. 1t was trial against time. with
out pace, or procession, just as you
prefer Nothing could keep close
enough to Hannibal to give a thrill K
an, body or anything but stop watch
Little Furry in Stretch
There was some little excitement
through the backstretcn when Wal
Pennant and War Zone hooked up for
the honor Of challenging the easy
winner. Lotus. with War Pennant
soon raced War Zone and Hamilton
into submission. He drew away and
the field was strung ont Indian file
for about quarter Of mile TKun-
derclap was slow to begin, came with a
rush around the turn, but was beaten
for everything but the show money at

New-York tribune., 1919-08-17

Griffin made it 30-15 on points by
smashing the ball squarely at Patter-
son as the latter waited at the net.
But that was about the closest the
Americans came to winning the second
set, Brookes and his partner steadying
down and taking the last three games
IN row, for the set at 81.
In the last set Johnston and his
partner held the lead at 5-3 on games
and at 400 on Johnston's service
with the games at I'd, again within
point of set. A net" by Johnston
and Herculean smash by Patterson
brought the score to deuce, and then
several long rallies followed, with the
points going to deuce four times be-
fore Johnston and Griffin dropped the
game, each sending his return into the
net.
Patterson won his own service in
1ne eleventh game, in spite of a dou-
ble-fault, and in the twelfth and last
session it was Grifin's fate W to be be
broken through once more. he making
tour errors in row, "out," "out,"
net" and "out."
The net" came out as a result of
Peck's backhaud half-volley, taken as
ne was running in from his service
line. The ball fairly hung on the net
tape, finally to trickle slowly, fatefully
back into Gritfin's court The pudgv
Californian drew one leg up against
the other, like a heron in swamp as
he stood there, hoping against hope,
that the ball would fall in Bro okes S
court. The gallery groancd with
Peck" when the fates pointed thumbs
down"
On the final point Griffin took
Brookes's return on the full volley as
ne came running toward the net, and
Patterson, on the alert half way be-
tween the net and the base line, raced
back to meet the ball The crowd
waited breathlessly, with Johnston and
Grimm standing stock still in their
tracks. Patterson reached the base
line simultaneously with the ball, but
instead of hitting, the stalwart Aus
trallan raised both arms and racquet
above his head ard then thrust his
hands forward, signifying "out," and
1t was so, for the ball dropped a scant
three inches over the base line
hrookes and Patterson mad won the
match and advanced a step nearer the
American doubles title.
Brookes Proves Mighty
If you will glance at the recapitula
ton of the Stroke analysis Of this
match you will see that Patterson is
| credited with the most placement aces,
with Johnston second, Brookes third
and Griffin fourth. But in taking these
figures at their face value, it is we'll to
remember that it was the mighty
Brookes who was the contributing fac
tor in many of his partners earned
shots
The Victorian it was. in MANY cases,
who made it possible for Patterson to
score the "kill." Brookes also con-
tributed more than his share in back
ing up his partners service, and there
were several occasions when Patterson
would have been broken through had
it not been for the brilliant support
given by the veteran.
Patterson showed weakness on his
ground strokes almost all through the
match. In the last half of the final
set, with his confidence apparently
running high, the young Australian
had more success in this department,
but before that he never seemed GER
tain of his shots when he took the ball
off the ground, particularly on his back
hand.
