RAY NOT COMING TO
DEFEND GOLF TITLE

NEW YORK, May 1O.-Ted Ray.
the British golfer who captured the
American open championship at
Toledo last year. has definitely de-
cided not to return to defend his
title at the Columbia Country Club
this year, according to word that has
been received here.
AS a result the trophy, emblematic
Of the premier golfng honors that
America has to offer, has been packed
up and Is now on it's way back to this
country in custody Of w. II. Horne,
a former South African open cham
pion, who expects to join the pro-
fessional ranks here.
In spite Of the fact that Ray will
not come to defend his title, the
British golfing public has hopes that
the cup will remain here only tenn
porarily for they are banking highly
upon the prowess of either George
Duncan, the British open champion
titlehoIder, and Abe Mitchell. his
partner, to win II back.

SEEKS RACE WITH
BEHAVE YOURSELF
Rowe, Whitney Trainer, Offers
to Back Tryster Against the
Derby Winner for $4,000.

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 10.--Jamcs
Rowe, trainer Of the Harry Payne
Whitney stable, has offered to race
Tryster against Behave Yourself.
winner Of the Kentucky Derby Satur-
day. for $50. 900 a side.
The result OF Saturdays race has
not convinced Mr.. Rowe that Behave
Yourself is Tryster's master by any
means. Instead. he Is satisfied that
Tryster can beat Behave Yourself IL
the two meet by themselves.
So he Is ready to back his opinion
to the extent OF $4,000.
While the Whitney stable has not
offered any excuses for the result of
the Derby, 1t Is known that Tryster
came out OF the race in a badly bat =
tered condition. He was kicked and
cut and narrowly escaped being cut
down. There was one print OF a
horse hoof which would have broken
his leg had 1t been an inch away. Rowe
is not captious about conditions. He
will make the race at any distance.
A match race between this pair
would be an event long to be remem-
bered, and IL 10 hoped that 1t can be
staged during the meeting at Church
hill Downs. Such thoroughbred
contest would go down In turf annals
on a par with the Ten Brock -Mollie
Mccarthy or the Man o. War-Sir Bar
ton conflict 1t would probably draw
as many visitors to the city as did
the Derby itself
