on" and half lengths ahead Of the local
quarter mile champion. Tom Rooney
made poor showing in spite Of the
rough water and conditions which were
! more in his favor than the other con-
tCStants.
The first half nile was good race
with the men rowing about on even
terms. but Paul shot ont AT the half
mile post and crossed from No. posi-
tion to No. 3. AT the island Gilmore
made strenuous effort to ovcrtakc his
rival. but the lead of the winner was
too much to overcome and Gilmore

Two accidents occurred during In"
afternoon. The most exciting was tho
sinking of the Maltas four Dared gig
crew about the middle of the island.
Penn Bargc's crew, the only other in
| the race. passed the Malta crew at the
head Of the island and the latter crew
tried TO overtakc the Penn crew and
were squirting when suddenly their boat
sank and five heads were seen on thr
top of the water. The two referee
boats rushed to the rescue followed by
two Park Guards in rOwboats. The
men climbed in the rowboats and
George 1Ieusler and James Flanagan
clerks of the course, towcd the sub
merged gig to the shore. At first there
were cries from the shore that one of
the men could not swim. and this had
q stirring effect on the spectators
However, the men were no worse off for
the drenching and the boat suffered no
Ill effects. Frank Frctz was TO have
rowed in intermediate Singles for the

RICHARDS DEF|ES
TENNIS POWERS
Intimates to National Associa.
ton That He Will Do as
He PIeases
OTHERS TO FOLLOW COURSE

New York. June 19.-Vlncent Rich
ards is in a belligerent frame of mind
toward the United States Lawn Tennis
Association. According to those who
discussed with him the ruling of the
national governing body that players
must conform to the requirements of the
open sanctioned tournaments and not
permit them to interfere with exhibit
tions. the young player made 1t plain
that he would do as he pleased.
Those who talked with Richards state
that he said he did not give damn
for the National Associations ruling.
He appeared to offer straight. undis.
guised defiance to the official body:
Likewise he intimated that others would
do the same thing and play when and
where they pleased. He Is reported to
have taken the national officials to
task for meddling outside of their af-
fairs and to have given as his opinion
the United States Lawn Tennis Assoc!-
alton was doing more harm than good.
Just what the officials will have to
say was not to be learned last night.
1t was intimated that the second chap
ter of the story today might be even
more surprising to Richards than the
ruling about playing in exhibitions such
as was scheduled at the Westchester-
Biltmore County Club at Rye yesterday.
As matter of fact. Richards played
in the Metropolitan championship on the
courts of the New York Tennis Club,
and did not attempt to 60 to Rye until
the Metropolitan officials agreed to his
going.
Within lawn tennis circles last night
the belief was expressed that Richards
was likely to get himself into trouble
as he had done before. Ir was recalled
that he was summoned before the ma :
tional officials in April because of his
entering and failing to compete in the
national indoor championship at the
Seventh Regiment Armory.

timid dog in hostile pack. The
poor fellow was just afraid Of the
other dogs; afraid that 1t might be
wrong, and that they would resent It
il he gave tongue; but, bless your
heart, gentle reader, when we stood
I'D in our stirrups and gave him the
old yell. and halloed "Hurrah for The
Strangerr" he came out most brave
| ly, and thence to the end the music
rang perfect. His vast voice rose
above and domained all.
But the "Old beaten" was not done
vet. In fact, he thought that he had
Just fairly begun. He swept another
shorter circle through the valley ana
vet another, still shorter. However,
1.-THE Stranger" was new feature OF
! the chase that he had not calculated
on. for he set him faster pace and
crowded him closer and closer all the
time. He could find no leisure on his
doubles in which to rest. The last
time we saw the "beater" cross the
road on his way to the mountains his
plume was on the drag, and his "hah-
hah-hah" was coming short and la
bored from his heaving flank. Then
he began to corkscrew his way up into
hills and cliffs. Then fell hush, save
now and then a whimper from some
discouraged hound or low howl that
made us all sad.
"Well," said one, II guess the old
beaten has about got tired of the run !;
we may as well blow out and quit {;
but we have had fine run all the
same" and he had raised his horn to
his lips to blow when, like the peal OF
trumpet, 1.-THE Strangers" splendid
voice came rolling down the hillside In
full cry and hot pursuit, followed In
few minutes by all the rest of the
mack. and little later the tired fox,
with dropping tail and hot and rapid
hah-hah-hah. bounded across the road,
with the hounds running free and fast
not so feet in the rear. Presently we
heard him squall, then confusion OF
squalls and grOwls, and when we rode
up to the spot the "old beater," the
wizard Of the woods, lay lifeless among
his enemies.
(Then came clambering down the
hill a 'possum hunter to tell how the
"old beaten" had hitherto baffied the
hounds. The cunning old rascal had
used a sloping ash tree to get up and
down 40-foot cliff)
When the fox had disappeared over
the bluff he had simply jumped upon
this leaning tree and ran down 1t. II
was an easy trick for a fox, but
most hazardous feat for dog to at
tempt, but 1.-THE Stranger" did it game
ly, and though it bunged and bruised
him and cost him broken rib, 1t made
him the pride of the pack and the
prime favorite of every fox hunt II
all the country. There was no othel

could be climbed by anything, and thu

hood had grown superstltious OF him.
They said that he was not fox at all,
that they had seen him, and that ne
was a kind of cross between big
bat and wildcat that he was winged
and webfooted, and that he would run
till he got tired and then rise and ny
| TO the mountains and rest, then come
down and run again, and so on. But
we knew better, for he had been seen
too often. He was just simply an old,
seasoned "beater," and good one, too,
and had given more horses the thumps,
more dogs hard fits, and more men the
headache, and had inspired more scold-
ings and sermons upon the subject Of
breaking the Sabbath day by running
fox chase past the meridian on Sat
urday night into Sunday morning than
| all the other foxes in our congress
sional district.
(Here the judge tells in detail how,
while they were dismounted, breathing
the horses and giving the hounds a
drink, a single hound was heard in the
distance and how they called the roll
on the pack, finding every hound there
but 1.-THE Stranger, to whom 40 one
gave a further thought.)
By this time the running hound, to
whom we had ben listening, had de-
.scribed circle on the bench Of the
mountain above us and was now COM
ing straight down on US. 1t was a
splendid voice that came rolling down
the slope. Sweet as flute, clear as a
clarion, bold as bugle, and steady as
church bell, 1t poured its symphOnous
tide like rolling river, through the
wide spreading valley, nundating the
sleeping earth with its mighty volume
of mellow music. At signal each OF
us gathered as many hounds as we
would hold onto and we started run
ner to the crossing to see the chase
and who was the chaser, etc. In jiffy
we heard the hoofs Of his bald-faced
nony gathering back, and as he came
he yelled out: Turn 'em loose; I'll
he blankety blank BANKED if 1t amt
the old beater himself, and The Stran
GERS making him hump for his life
not 30 yards behind him."
In less time than it takes to tell the
entire pack, released, was laundering
on the trail. We knew exactly where
the chase would lead and how he would
swing a circuit of some seven miles
in circumference, and just where ne
|, would cross the stream that drained
the valley, and the precise spot where
he would jump the road on his way
back to the mountain. A sharp gallon
