 Mrs. Rees very charming ly stated, when called upon that "she was there because her husband came home and said he was entitled to bring a friend to the ban quet and she decided s h e was his very BEST friend, and so she came. This sally was received with a great deal of warmth.
 During the banquet the High School Orchestra play ed several very delightful selections. This completed the program of the second "get-together" banquet held by the C. ofC Let us hope there will be many more.

run the night before. Who knows?
Then follows the painful process of
being separated from your money at
the track and the equally painful jour
ney home. The return trip is lotsr
easier, though, if one has q sense of
humor. In about five minutes the three
winners have finished telling how they
did it; then the fifty-seven losers start
the races all over again.
Everybody had a ticket made out on
the winner, and everybody changed his
mind at the last moment and tore it UP
to write one on horse that failed.
Not seven out of fifty losers will admit
that they used poor judgment or that
they were unlucky.
"Did you see Bonus pinched back at
the start? Why, that horse would have
kicked in but for bonehead ride by
that big stiff of jockey. He was
pounds the best of the field. 1t looked
like shoo-in to me. Racing sure is
one tough game. Guess I'm through" !"
But the fifty-seven and the three all
gather at the shrine on the following
day and the process is repeated. Such
is the fascination of the sport.

Some people sem to have no use
whatever for loser-just because he's
loser. In some quarters it appears
to be crime to lose. Let US not for
get that the Yankees, vanquished by
better team, weren't entirely supine
and that amid all the scolding kindly
word and little credit may not be
amiss. They haven't done anything
objectionable or met treatment other
good teams haven't met before, and it
must not be forgotten that they made
every game with the Giants hard one
and several times came from behind.
Among those not abusing them are
their late adversaries.
Still, the Yankees found out In this
worlds series that they need strength
ening, and they will try to get it. The
club has in mind strengthening at Sec
ond base, in center field, in the box and
behind the bat.
Bengough to Join Club
an additional catcher in the person Of
Bengough, of Buffalo. the best Interna-
tional League backstop, it is said. A
southpaw pitcher Is needed, and the
club will have one in jake May, who
has been with Vernon since he was
with the Cardinals. He has been a
success on the West Coast. The Yam
KEGS wouldn't mind having Rube Ben
ton, former Giant southpaw, who won
twenty-five games for st. Paul this
year. Neither would the Giants, but
it Is doubtful if either can get him
from Mike Kelly.
Just how the Yanks will strengthen
second base and center field isn't
known yet, but an earnest effort will
be made to do SO. A substitute for
Yanks have frst-class utility in
fielder in Mike McNallys No fault is
found with Scott. He was afflicted
with boils during the worlds series,
which. doubtless, affected his work.
Ruth will have to play better ball than
this year to earn his pay. AT that, he
played splendidly on the last Western
| trip. Good men before him have had
bad spells, and don't think he's passe,
! II he doesn't want to be.
The Giants, as they stand, will be
hard TO beat next year, very hard, and
probably will be stronger than this
year. But other National League teams
aren't acknowledging defeat and aren't
miliarity of competitive association has
not bred fear, even if it has not bred
contempt. The Reds and Cardinals
and Pirates don't acknowledge that the
| Giants for next year have anything on
them. A lot may happen in q year,
even extending to the worlds series.
Now that the Giants and Yankees
have had it out again, we know how in
dividuals compared. Previous "dope"
was guesswork and, as usual in such
cases, Of little value. But as to what
did happen
Snyder surpassed schang. Hit bet
ter. Had more pep and handled his
pitchers better.
Yank Pitchers Not Bad
Giants had better pitching, through
the smartness of McGraw in directing
them, but did we'll on their own.
Yanks' pitchers, however, not bad.
Poorly supported at bat. Shawkey
pitched as well as anybody on either
side, and capable work from Mays and
Hoyt. Bush handicapped by sore foot.
Nehf best serevice Of any being twice
victor, and Scott and Barnes big
help. Umpire Klein is said to have re-
marked that he spoke to Bush because
the latter was taking hop, skip and

The stables are "lighting up" their
ancient destroyers of oats and shoot
| ing for the purses, and the players
are frantically trying to gather a
bank roll. The ony disinterested party
is the bookmaker. He gets his without
effort.
Few favorites win at better than
even money and as a rule when any
thing resembling Is to shot goes
landscape behind the clubhouse bar.
They are peculiar lot, these local
players. Put stake horse in with a
lot of platsrs, and if the bookies offer
2 to as, Inst the stalker and 8 to s
against platter, they send in the fam
lily jewels on the platter.
That's the psychology of the aver
age bettor hereabouts. The favorite is
the thing, and the moment that long
price is quoted against horse that
horse is automatically forgotten. Of
course, there are exceptions, but with
the average player anything but a
favorite is poison. This, despite the
fact that long price has never yet
beaten good horse.
1t is assumed that when the price is
short the stable is betting on its horse
and that contrariwise when no money
shows for a horse it is not "intended." !"
This is sound logic, but the arrange
ment brings disaster to the player in
many instances for the reason that the
money is bet out of town. Then, too.
it sometimes happens that horse will
win despite its jockey. Sad, but true.
the post marked "stiif," only to awak-
en- during the race and romp home a
winner to the CONSERVATION of its
owner. Needless to say such occur
rences bring much joy to the bookies
Last Tuesday a stake horse, dropped
in with cheap lot, was quoted at
even money by the oralists who make
the odds. The favorite quit in the
stretch and was lucky to finish fourth
in field of five.
The same flly was entered last
Thursday in classy company. The
odds were 10 to /, so the talent in
run within hailing distance of the long
shot. The 10 to i thing won in GAL
lop. 1t was said that even the owner
did not have bet down on the winner
but such things are hard to believe.
