followed by Sweepment, set the pace at
a fast gait until quarter of mile
from home At that point Vincent
Powers, who is now Mrs. Whitney, g
trainer as well as star jockey. began
to make his run with Soumangha. AT
almost the same time Cheyne began to
work on Earlocker.
They drove their horses hard and
gained a little ground. but 10 seemed
as IL their task would be fruitless.
Sea Skipper and Sweepment We're half
a dozen lengths in front and apparently
running strong But both Powers and
Cheyne persevered with their mounts
and the last obstacle found them within
striking distance OF the leaders, who
were fighting hard but showing signs
of distress A sixteenth of mile from
the judges Sweepment. who was maxi
ing his first appearance in several
months. began to falter and 1t seemed
as IL the Widener horse would win.
But In the last fifty yards Sea Skipper
found the task of running Sweepment
into submission tough one and he
began to stop. AS these two stopped,
Powers on Soumangha began to ride
like ne used to when he was America s
leading cross-country rider and had
nothing to do with training horses. He
fairly lifted old Soumangha along. The
old mare was game and she responded
to his urging and fought on until she
was the victor.

Our obligation in 1922 is very
much greater. We must play an in
telligent part in determining both
the policies and the ticket This
should be done in full cooperation
with the men. If some OF the com
mitteemen are unwilling TO even dis

DETROIT Team
ISHOWS UP We'll
Mack's Athletics Also Sur
prise of Early Baseball
Season
YANKS SEEM TO
BE OFF COLOR

NEW YORK, May 10 Omitted
Press)-of all the young, in-the-
making ball clubs that have showr
on the Polo Grounds this year, the
Detroit Tigers look the best Not
only does Ty Cobb's hand look like
team of possibilities in the future
but 1t is beginning to shape up as
one that should be considered this
season.
Give Detroit one real winning
pitcher and the club might finish
second or third. With what it now
possesses 1t may make the same good
showing II those good looking young
hurlers are not exceeding their speed
limit.
Seeing the Cleveland Indians in
the series with the Yanks, IL appears
that Speakers tribe is either in an
awful slump or It has passed his
day Looks as IN the latter is the
case. Speaker Is depending entire
". on veterans and they may yet
round into form and not disappoint
him. The club had terrible luck
during spring training and It Is los
ing ground now that will be hard to
regain in mid-season.
Every year since 1914, Connie
Mack has been promising something
that would not look like a burlesque
OF the Athletic star aggregation. The
club this spring looks like the long
threatened delivery. The AS are |
playing good ball and to say the |
least they may give up their long |
lease on the cellar.
Washington has been one OF the |
big Disappointment Of the year. The
collapse OF the team that was ex-
pected to be a big noise in the race
may be blamed upon the failure OF
Roger Peckinpaugh TO deliver.
Peckinpaugh is off his game all the
way around and the Senators are
showing an inclination to dog Ut.
Clarke Griffith is wailing loud and
long that he had it put over on him
when he secured Peckinpaugh.
The Giants are moving along in
fine shape but the Yanks are just
managing to make the grade. The
pitching staff of the American
League champions is working errat-
ically but Higgins has so many in
reserve that he hasn't many worries.

games lost in a row can throw a
