noon was anything but attractive q

sport. While the caliber of horses was
below the ordinary the fields were we'll
matched. The feature of the program
was the American Remount Purse for
four-year-olds and upward, over the
seven-furlong route. The starters in
this event were ridden by army
officers and resulted in an easy victory
for Major Stevenson's eleven-year-old
mare, Madelle.
Major Stevenson rode a well-judged
race, saving his mount until turning
for home, where he went to the front
and won by three lengths. Courteous,
ridden by Lieutenant McCrerry, made
the early running and finished second.

with Captain Walsh in the saddle.
Mabel A. broke running in the open-
ing race and ran her field dizzy all the
way, going under the wire three
lengths in front of Desperation. The
latter beat Kitty Warmer five lengths
for the place. Propaganda, which was
better than 20 to l in the betting, cap

great power in Canadian racing

however, he would submit an emer-
gcncy message on the Simpson bill if
one is needed.
Il think the leaders know how I feel
IN this matter" said the Governor. "I
have not concealed my views on the
subject I have reached that concIu-
sion very definitely. | think that box

great evil. think the only chance to
check the commercial part of it which
IS pound to lead to evils would be to
get commission of men who would
not want to serve for pay but who
might for their interest in the SNORT
undertake to serve. If such commits
sion would not regulate it as I think Il
ought to be regulated would be in
tayor Su OF prohibiting it altogether."

Schooner america.
Pioneer Cup Yacht,
Is Offered to u. S.

BOSTON, April 14.-The yacht
- America, which, by capturing
the Royal Squadron Yacht Club
trophy in a race around the Isle of
Wight in 1851, founded the interna-
tional races for the cup that has
since borne its name, is to be offered
to the government for preservation
at Annapolis. The old schooner now
lies stripped of all fittings at a
shipyard here.
c. H. w. Foster, who bought her
recently to save her from the junk
pile, announced to-day that he had
offered the schooner to the Eastern
Yacht Club on the condition that
the latter present it to the govern
ment. The club to-day sent repre-
sentative to Washington to make
the proposal.
Should the America go to Ann
apolis she wilt be returning to
familiar waters, as she was berthed
there and sailed from there by naval
crews in the '70s. She was sailed as
privateer during the Civil War
and sunk by the Confederates in st.
Johns River, Florida. The crew of
the United States steamship Ottawa
raised the former yacht.
The America served as a training
ship at the Naval Academy until she
was sold to General Ben Butler in
1873. She was last under sail in
1901.

Boxing Commission Reports

The New York State Boxing Com
mission and the License Committee
have filed detailed joint reports to
the Legislature for the period Of their
tenure Of office up to March 81. There
was financial statement attached.
License fees aggregating $20,500 had
been paid to the state by. the thirty
five licensed clubs up to that time.
The commission calls attention to
the fact that under it's administration
not single serious accident has
marred the sport. Some time ago a
rule was adopted which fixed the maxi
mum admission price at $40 a person,
except that in case of a championship
bout the commission might grant club
permission to charge SIS for the best
seats.
Only one club has been suspended.
The rule against betting has been rig
idly enforced. Assignm ents of referees
are so arranged that the names are not
known till announced from the ring,
thus preventing gamblers from having
early information.
The Walker Sporting Club Of Ridge
wood, which will conduct open air
fights, will have q minimum seating
capacity of $4,000 for it's inaugural the
night OF Memorial Day, Rocky Kansas
ana Gene belmont Will feature the
opening show, for which the prices of
admission will range from 81 to SIS.
Lightweight Champion Benny Leon

he injured his sore thumb, which was
fractured in training several weeks
ago, so that it was necessary for Benny
to cancel his match with frankie
Schoell at Buffalo next Monday night
This match was previously postponed
two weeks ago because of the first

Plat Looms
AS Dark Horse
In Golf Abroad
~ Year: Old Philadelphia
Star May Surprise in
British Title JOURNEYS
By Ray McCarthv

When the American amateur golf
team goes abroad it is quite likely
that "Chick" Evans, the national
champion; Francis Ouimet, the pop
ular Boston star, and Bobby Jones, the
Atlanta phenom, will occupy most of
thc spotlight as we'll as the attention
or the followers of tho game, both
on Qpis side and in England. Jones,
particularly, is sure to attract consid-
erablc notice from the British populace.
inasmuch as he has never played out
side of this country.
However, the fellow who may prove
to be the sensation Of the team and
the dark horse" of the British tourna-
ment is J. Wood Platt, the "Georgie
Duncan" of Uncle Sans amateur play
crs. We say the "Georgie Duncan" be-
cause the British titleholder ia SUD-
posed to be about the fastest shot
maker roaming the links to-day. But
II he can beat Platt in making the
round of eighteen holes or more he
VIII have to get pair of roller skates.
For speed is tho Philadelphia young
ster's middle name.
Platt has been coming like a Texas
tornado the past year, and he is about
ready to step out and to collect his
share OF the spoils being distributed
among among the amateur golf fraternity.
This fellow is. only twenty-five years
old, and has been playing the game
only about three years. And vet last
year he won eight tournaments.
Platt was medal winner in six tour
neys where the field was very classy.
tie was runner-up twice, and in the ma
tlonal amateur championship at Roslyn
he went to the third round, incidental
ly adding S. Davidson Herron's name
to his list of victims. And during the
seasons play he broke two course rec
ords.
Considered Coming Champion
Philadelphians naturally are quite
proud Of their youthful representative
and are pulling hard for him to con-
tlnue his good work. SANDY" McNib-
lick. demon newshound of The Phila-
delphia Evening Ledger, is one of
Piatts most enthusiastic supporters.
rms attenuated golf writer, who has
watched many good ones make their
entrance and exit, sees in Platt ,s,m-
ing champion.
- :" icICcL IcCeiVeu from MCN1DilCk
last night he had this to say about
stocky little Woode:
"Platt never did and never could
play golf as he is playing now. To
begin with, he is using a driver now.
instead of a spoon, is hitting ter
riiic, low ball and is getting SO yards
more from the tee. I know, because
| played with him yesterday, and he
was up, for 50,yard chip at four $50
yard plus holes in a row. He had a
70 at Whitemarsh, his new club, which
is one of the longest and best courses
in town. Platt has his passport to 60
abroad. He played ninety holes over
the. week end, averaging 72 per round.
He's a conner, | tell you"
McNiblick could have added that no
golfer, amateur or pro, possesses a
better temperament for the game than
this same Platt. He is cool in his
play and has unlimited nerve. Those
who saw the lad perform in the ma
tlonal championship tournament last
year can vouch for this.
