PILLORY GALLOPS TO EASY VICTORY
 IN THE BELMONT

New York. June 10.-Pillory, car rying 12e pounds. with c. H. Miller in the saddle. galloped home the easy winner of the historic Belmont stakes at Belmont park today before a crowd estimated at 35.000 people. Snob II. ridden by c. Hummer, was tried second two and half lengths back. Hea was an easy third over Ray Jay. the only other starter. The time. 2:fS 4-5, was comparatively slow, due to the deliberate early pace set by Snob II. who showed the way for a mile and three-sixtee with Ray Jay second. while Pi.- lcry and Hea alternated in third position. Entering the stretch, Pill lory went into quick lead. He was being eased up in the final strides. Snob II, though out to the last ounce, saved second by two and half lengths from the equally tired Hea. Ray Jay stopped badly after a good mile and was beaten off. Pill lory won the sb1.ooo Preakness at Pimlico on May Is.
 The Belmont had a vlue of s30.- 700 to the winner. with an additional s2,0oo to R. T. Wilson, his breeder. in whose colors he raced today. snob II earned s5.ooo in second money. while John Sandford, who bred the colt and recently sold him for ss5.ooo. received sl,oo0 for nom- mating him.
 Pillory was comparatively un- backed at to 1. Immediately after the Belmont stakes running, Norwich was sent an exhibition mile in 1:39. with A. Johnson in the Benjamin Block coiors in the saddle.
 Pillory's Preakness and Belmont victories enables him to top money winners of the year.

Woco Pep Wins, 3 to 0

Woco Pep proved stronger than East Lake on the East Lake diamond and when the last man went out in the ninth the motor fuelers had rolled in to O win ovor the Ducks It was the second shutout of the season scored over the East Lake crew by the Peppers but it was one of the prettiest diamond battles of the day
 Bob Burke. twirling for the Woeo outfit, had an assortment of slow curves that kept the East Lake boys breezing most of the time. He whiffed seven and allowed but six scattered hitss while his teammates were touching up Byrd for ten binBles, though six of them went down by the strikeout route also. The Woco Pep team got away to an early lead in the first inning, when Gus Galbough singled to left, was sacrificed to second by his brother, Ed, and scored when the East Lake infield bobbled Box's grounder. East Lake threatened to score several times, but Burke man aged to set them down with pop ups and slow grounders. A sensational left field catch by Scott was a fea- ture of his teammates defense.
 For the losers Bill Bancroft, the scrappy little catcher, had a perfect record at the bat. registering four hits in as many, times up. ecore

Norwich has won 12 straight races never has been extended during his career. has won more money than any horse of his age in the history of rac- ing, and yet, in the minds of some self-styled experts" he hasn't proved himself
 Was anything ever funnier?
 Probably no horse ever has been scoffed at more than has Norwich. 1T he had gone to his earliest races her aided as a world beater, the racing smart guys" might have accepted him mediately as a truly great. But the fact that he ran as selling platter in his inaugural. has made 1t impos- sible for some persons ever to regard him In any other light.
 Norwich Won Elm All
 When Norwich won at five furlongs, those who had predicted defeat for him, said that when he was asked to to five and a half furlongs he would quit He didn't. Walt until he must 20 six furlongs. then he'll crack" " they said. But he ran six furlongs and whipped every great s-year-old in training.

He won at every distance from five furlongs up to a mile and a quarter, never was in danger in any race In his lifetime, and made show of his every competitive field. He has accomplished more in his IF races than did Man O'War or Colin. yet those who acclaim that pair miracle horses still scoff Norwich.

 When player begins to slump off in his game, and his score begins Co mount, an analysis usually will reveal that the trouble is mostly with som. one club. have been out the last few days to practice up in am ticipation of the western amateur championship in Kansas City this month, and somewhat to my surprise l discovered that my midiron play was off. l had fallen into the habit Of failing to carry the stroke clear through and making the ciubhead do its share.
 By putting the left elbow against the body you will obtain the best follow-t through. This is what l call the bent" follow through. The play CT who stands with clubs and arms extended in one straight line after he has played Is more attractive looking figure on the golf links. but his results will not compare. with the player who is willing to sacrifice arr tistic effect to distance by employing the bent follow through.
 In playing this shot l swing into the imaginary line of direction and give the ball the quickest wrist snap possible. This should be done with relaxed wrists and rhythmically. with perfect timing. When this snap is properly done it gives throw to the clubhead that adds distance. To take a little chip of sod after you have hit the ball is the way good golfer plays the shot. To do so steadies the flight of the ball in a surprising way.
 Moderation
 Thera e apothar .npfpf which find It a bit difficult to make clear With words. but stating it the best I can it is this. You must find a middle ground between tenseness and relaxation. If you play with either too much of one or the other your shot will not measure up to your possibilities. I believe the finger grip is the best of all grips. and the only real tightness l experience in gripping my clubs for this shot is tlghtness of the fingers. In playing the full midiron l am always con scious of good grip on my club.
 Here Is another little trick in tho mid-iron shot which it is well to know. Do not bring the clubhead up too quickly on the back stroke Take pains 10 bring it back along the ground little ways before going up. This little wrinkle Is a help in getting distance and control.
 It Is my opinion that iron shots should be practiced zeaiously. keep ing uppermost in the mind the inn portance of accuracy, feel this way because iron shots certainly offer the opportunity to some of the finest of golf play. When you and your mid iron understand each other well enough so that you are ambitious to play for the hole and not be merely content with making the green then you will see what I mean by a first class midiron shot and you will enthuse over its possibili- ties.
