i ca twice, Berger should be seated, fell , tottering to the ground
 MT Mann was the most representative individual who defended Berger Pos sibiy because he stood alone his anger was easily aroused. One incident escaped the official reporter-possibly through in- tentlon. Representative Campbell of Kan sas was speaking against Berger vixen his time expired He asked permission to extend his remarks in the Record. Mann exclaimed II object"'
 It was so out of the ordinary that Campbell, himself angered, inquired sar- castically; Why did you do that?''
 Come on the outside,'' rejoined Mann in great heat, and I will explain, and also knock that Kansas curi out of your hair.''
 Campbell, with the dignity of an ideal chairman of the rules committee. declined to go. and the incident was concluded. And then Berger went out.
 But he says he will return again.

DR. CLARK EQUALS
 I.ATONIA RECORD

Latonia, Ky, July 6.---H F. Whit
 ney's Dr. Clark, which has been gen eraf1y regarded as a sprinter, proved
 at Gatonia yesterday that he is also a
 good performer at a distance when he captured the SIS, 900 Independence Handicap at a mile and three fur longs from one of the best fields that has been sent to the post during the ] Kentucky sea son. The Whitney colt won by a head from Minto 2d, just lasting to gain the verdict; while J. K. L. Ross's heavily weighted Boniface was third. The winner ran the dis tance in 1856 3-5, which equals the
 track record.
 Dr. Clark was hustled into the lead right after the break and gave a fine exhibition of speed. though he was never able to gain a. commanding advantage. Coltiletti had to keep him at top speed practically all the way,
 as Minto 2d soon raced up and made a determined challenge in the stretch.
 The whitney colt was tiring at the finish and sMinto would have been the
 winner in a few more strides.
 Boniface ran a very good race with
 his high weight but tired in the stretch and held third by only nose from jLeochares. Wf1daIr, staiblefnate of the winner was off slowly and forced to go wide for the entire journey, and therefore was never a factor.

ATTENDANCE RECORDS FALL AS TANKS SHOW

Setting attendance record at Amer ican League parks is becoming a com mon occurrence with the Yankees and it will not be surprising if they in c1ude the entire league in their record making before the season ends. They stated by drawing close to 2s, ,O0oO on Patriots Day at Boston, a figure said to be the top mark for an American League game in the Hub. Later they drew more than 3S,OO0 at the Polo Grounds and established a. metrololi- tan record for a baseball gathering. During their recent WesternNffip they played to the greatest crowds ever assembled for games at Cleveland and St. Louis respectively on successive Sundays, and yesterday Washington's s greatest crowd saw the Yankees de- feated in the afternoon game. The Hugmen are scheduled for Sunday games at Chicago and Detroit on their next Western trip so some more rec ordS may be shattered.

CAREFUL WINS
 CLOVER STAKES

Before the largest crowd that ever visited the Aqueduct track Careful, the little daughter of Wrack and Mindful, belonging to Walter S. Sal mon, won the historic Glover Sta kes, and Morton L. S.chwartz's. good colt Audacious ran off with the Carter Handicap yesterday afternoon.
 MT. Salmon's speedy Ally. which was an added starter, made a runaway race of the Clover and won, eased up, by two lengths. P. A. Clarks Nancy Lee was second and Joseph E. Davis's Prodigy was third. Careful ran five furlongs out of the chute in the good time of 57 seconds.
 Audac.ous scored an easy victory and won by three lengths from Con tancy, but it is a question if he was the best horse in the race. He is at the top of his form now and ran a magnificent race, but Joseph E. Wid- ener's cratic Naturalist was practi- cally left at the post and finished a bang 1Ip third.
 The Clover was the feature. For it more than 100 fillies were nominated, but only seven were named overnight to start. Of these Tamarisk, Intrigue, Good Bye and Foam were scratched and then Careful was added.

PLAYS IN TWO NET
 JOURNEYS AND WINS

Francis T. Hunter, former captain Of the Cornell University tennis team, and one of the physical giants of the game today, performed a. feat of strength and endurance yesterday that has seldom been equalled, and perhaps never surpassed. Playing in two tournaments, for the North Side and Westchester County cham pionships, he won five matches in the course of the holiday, all with out the loss of a set. Starting in the morning at the University Heights club, at 2O7th street on the Harlem river, he disposed of two strong op- ponents, Harrison R. Hathaway and Paul Martin, then journeyed out to Hartsda1e, where he eliminated two of the contenders for the Westchester title. He drove a car back to Uni versity Heights in the afternoon, and before the sun had set he had added his fifth victim to his list.

(By Ed. Hughes.)

Leon J. .Cadore's baseball fame dates from May of this year. Doubtless 1t will continue in the annals of fandogn after more efficient moundsmen have been forgotten. For Cadore has had a star part in a record breaking achievement and his name had been entered, for all time, in balloons led
 ger of fame. It was on May 1 that Galore engaged in that memorable 26- inning game, pitching for Brooklyn
 against Boston in a contest that broke
 III records for duration and endur- lnce. The game edded in a draw at II, both Galore and Oeschger, who pitched for Boston, sharing about equal honors in the remarkable exhi- bitfon.
 Cadore has always fbeen a reliable
 performer in the box, but perhaps he
 would not have won the fame he now
 enjoys had it not been for that
 lengthy battle in Boston. Galore, who
 is a giant feet, inch tall, originally intended to become a mining engineer.
 He is a college graduate, but was all
 ways so deeply interested in athletics
 that the lure of minerals failed to subdue the love for sports. He was a star football and fbask etbaH player in addition to being a brilliant performer on the diamond. Cadore's profes- sional baseball career has made some or d SlODe-LTOLleT out Ol A1144Il At various times he has played in Vancouver, Jersey City, Wtlk esbarre, Trenton, Buffalo and Montreal be- fore joining the Brooklyn team, in
 1917.
 Cadore is 2S years old and when his natural strength and intelligence is considered he should be good for a
 number of years in the majors. For instance, Cadore, despite his great strength, does not waste energy when in the box. Like Matthewson of old. , he husbands it until in a tight place when he draws on his reserve force. At other times he allows the fielders to share in the work of retiring the opposing batsmen-
 In commenting on the remarkable Boston game Galore. who pitched i approximately four hours counting the warming 1lGo, said:
 !! s'The only effect felt from the sus- 1 tained strain was that of sleepiness, 1 although of course my arm was a bit
 fatigued. Yet I think I was good for several innings more and would like ] to have had the match terminate de-
 cisivefy. That was what bothered me
 the most after I retired to the club | house to dress---the fact that after | la;boring all those hours we still failed | to gain the day."---CCopyright, 1920---

 O'Leary Too Strong for Hall.
 Young O'Leary won the decision in the opening engagement over Joe Hall of the Crasho A. c, jabbitg and up- percutting his way to win by a wide margin. Hall was completely baffled by the experience and cleverness of the Akorn boy and for six rounds could not land his right hand, the one that would. bring the clever hard punch and, that left swing to the stomach in the fifth that made O'Leary slow up and the latter stalled for a time saving his strength for the last round when he pounded the West End boy, trying to topple him over. But Hall stood up .gamely in every round and bleeding from the nose from the first round and a cut under the eye. he tried hard to land blow. O'Leary suffered a deep cut over his left in the fifth when Hall man. aged to put over a hard right. Weights were, O'Leary 123 A, Hall 124k.
 Nearly 5000 fans were seated in the big open air arena, everyone ob- taining their seat without any trouble
 
 without the slightest incident to mar the afternoon.
 Dwyer must have been thinking of bringing Perry here again according g to the dope at the arena but when the telegram from Perry challenging the winner was greeted with boos, he must have thought again.

PITCHERS MAY DECIDE
 CHAMPIONSHIP RACE

It is generally conceded that the pennant race in the American League lies between two contenders, the Yankees and the Cleveland Indians, and the fans are indulging in consid- erable speculation as to which Of these teams has the better chance of coming through a winner. It looks to me that the pitching staffs of these two teams will be the deciding factors in the big race. In other respects the teams seem to be about evenly matchd, but so far as their pitching staffs are concerned it is quite fm- possible now to make comparison.
 On the surface it appears that the Indians have the edge on the Tanks pitchers, for Miller Huggins appar- ently only has two first class hurlers upon whom to rely. viz: Quinn and Shawkey However, there is a young fellow from Texas who has shown marvellous form in his few starts this season, and who may shift the bal ance in favor of the New York team. His name is Warren Collins, famil- iarlg known as Rip" Also there is a strong, possibility of Carl Mays coming back to form before the sea son closes.i.
