were longer.
The nine hits pulled off by the home
folks were good for a total of Is bases,
including three triples and three

All the conversation of how scien-
tific breeding through five generations
has improved the speed of the race
horse is largely hokum.
In nearly two years of effort, during
which millions of assaults against time
have been made, the record for one
mile has been lowered less than IL
seconds.
A century ago, when the thorough
breds were sometimes crossed" with
buggy horses" the get ran an aver
age of 40 feet per second over race
courses little better than plowed fields.
And now. despite all the bally-booing
about the great improvement in the
horse, the fastest mile an American
horse ever traversed in a race was at
an average of 80 feet per second.
And that was over track improved
to the ninth degree, built with banked
turns, spread with the springiest posi-
Bile earth and ''bedded" in a way to
generate the ultimate of speed
Heat System Used.
Among many contrasts between rae
| ing in this era and that of 100 years
ago is that in the bygone era horses
won races only through the heal
system. Then the winner of a purse
was the animal who won the first two
races out of three-and he had to rur
them all on the same afternoon Now
adays, the horses have been so i'm
proved as regards stamina that they
run one race on one day and then arc
| forced to rest up from three to ter
| days because of the terrific effort"

II1moleon, who scampered the distance

torrance doesn't get into the oficia

FIRST INNING WORK

A batting rally in the first inning
that netted the Postal men four runs
enabled them to cop the long end OF a
4 to score with the Hines Dairy nine.
Errors were responsible for the down
fall of the Hines team.
Goebel started on the hill for the
Hines and allowed three hits in the
first inning. This, coupled with sever
al errors, gave the Postal man a four
run lead, and their only runs Of the
game. ..
After the first frame Goebel was
relieved by Nicodemus, who pitched
alright ball the remainder of the
game, not allowing safe blow to the
Postal men.
Stevens, the Postal hurler. also was
in fine form and allowed the Hines
crew only four hits. His support was
poor, his teammates making five err
rors behind him, though they did not
come at a critical time.

Nearly half a century has elapsed

Probably a half million-perhaps
more race horses-have been foaled
since Ten Brock flashed into immor-

100000 speed tests. All of them were
over tracks infinitely more suited to

%, few bouts have as yet been ar
made by the promoter to card promi-
nent boxers in any particular class.
Old Order Passes.
Recent experiences and observa.
tons have led me to believe that the
public wants new figures in the ring,
said Richard With few exceptions
the champions and their nearest ri
walls have met several times and the
results of these contests have not
always proved satisfactory.
IN some cases the bouts have had
the appearance of being a routine Of
fair. New and ambitious candidates
for titles are needed to liven up the
sport
| Although the average champion

not the money to spend that it hat
