To Commander Ross belongs tn,
distinction of having sent to the pos
the first entry to finish one-two il
a Derby revival. When Sir Bartor
won in 1919 the nearest horse TO hin
at the finish was his stable-mate
Billy Kelly. Sir Barton's triumph
was a countrywide surprise. Besides
Billy Kelly in the field that finished
behind him was the fleet Eternal. Al

Sir Barton went to the post in the
fortyfifth Derby a maiden. He was
the first horse of American racing
history to break into the winners
class by winning a Derby. Later in
1919 he demonstrated that his Derby
triumph was no mistake by winning
revivals of the Preakness, Withers,
and Belmont stakes and the M..ry-
land handicap. As four-year-old
he won the fastest Saratoga handi-
cap ever run. beating Exterminator,
Wildair, The Porter and Mad Halter
and covering his mile and a quarter

the 8 and 4 year old champion of
his day.

Billy Kelly had achieved for Com

a splendid triumph for the Idle Hour

a commanding figure in American
racing and production, bred Behave

Behave Yourself was a son of Mara

Omar Khayyam, now regularly

PAT MORAN'S DEATH
A BLOW TO REDS ON
EVE OF BIG SEASON
But Players Mostly Veter.
ans and Pats Work Can
Be Carried On.
BY JOHN b, FOSTER

Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
New York, March S.-Pat Moran
has been lost to the Cincinnati Reds
and a foremost contender for the
National League championship meets
a handicap little anticipated fort
night ago.
1t is fortunate that the Cincinnatis
had signed up Jack Hendricks to be
assistant to Moran as they have a
responsible leader ready to succeed
him.
Moran had not been in i'll health to
the extent that his friends thought
he might lose his life although he had
been worrying for gear or so about
his affairs. He frightened up per-
ceptibly as the time approached for
the training season to begin, as he
was of the opinion that he had cham
pionship club under his control for
the year to come. When he left for
the South he felt quite sure that he
would start back North with the best
ball team he had ever handled.
The Reds are team Of old and ex-
perienced players. One of them has
had managerial training and another
equal to the task of shouldering re-
sponsibility. 1t is not team that has
gone steadily forward without friction.
A fractional quarrel some seasons ago
had bad effect on the players. They
were divided in thought although they
probably did their best on the field,
but team that is split up on an issue
foreign to baseball will not go far.
The fact that old players constitute
the bulk of the team is helpful on the
present situation. Tie older men know
what to do and seem to be actuated
by the inspiration of becoming possible
pennant winners. That will carry
them along where they would lag if
they were devoid of hope.
VT is not an easy situation for Hen
bricks. He must shape up the team
for the earlier spring games and take
the principal part in developing the
three or four youngsters who seem to
have chance. The team is accus-
toned to Moran's methods and unfor-
tunately for Hendricks he has not
been with the team long enough to
know what they are.
1t is very hard luck for the Reds
to suffer this misfortune on the eve
Of tho beginning of another season but
it may be better to face it now than
in the middle of the season.

THE SMITH FAMILY
WILL BE HARD TO
BEAT THIS SUMMER
Mrs. Macdonald Smith Has
"Mac" Playing Cham
pionship Golf.
By RAY MCCARTHY

Copyright, 1874, by Consol. Press ASS n.
Miami. Fla, March S.-MacDonald
Smith will be a hard man to beat in
the United States open golf champion
ship at Oakland Hills next summer. Or.
rather, the Macdonald Smiths will
be hard to beat.
Ten years ago Smith was regarded
as one of the most promising youngs.
tiers playing the game. But he was
young and human and. instead of
plugging away steadily at it. he found
it hard to resist the lure of convivial
souls and he skidded slowly but sure
~ over the crest of the hill into Has
Beenville.
Fifteen months ago Macdonald mar.
ried Pacific coast girl, an unusually
fine, loyal woman. She had known
| Mac" when he was an internationa
figure and she was determined to res
surect the golfing genius that once haC
amazed the country. Slowly bu
steadily her encouragement began tC
tell. Mac" regained his best shots and
with them came restored confidence
His triumphant hers-came last
Thursday afternoon when Smith and
Bill Mehlhorn of st. Louis emerged
victorious in a tournament against
fourteen of the best professionals In
the country.
"Well, mother, we made It," said
MAC" happily when he found his wife
on the outskirts of the crowd.
Il knew you would. dear" she re-
piled, taking none Of the credit to
herself.
AS a result Of their victory in this
tournament, Smith and Mehlhorn may
well lay claim to being the champion
golf team of the United States. In
three successive days they defeated
Gene Sarazen and Johnny Farrell,
Walter Hagen and Joe Kirkwood, and,
finally Jock Hutchinson and Mike
Brady.
To triumph against three such pairs
requires something more than luck and
the breaks. Smith and Mehlhorn won
through the combination of skill,
courage and the breaks-and made
their. own breaks by their very ug-
gressiyeness.
In their match against Hagen and
Kirkwood they trailed from the fifth
to the thirty-fifth hole and finally
emerged victorious when Mehlhorn
holed 20-foot putt on the last green.
Mehlhorn, by the way, will prove
another dangerous contender this sum-
mer. He played brilliantly here and
apparently has found his true form.
But it was Macdonald Smith. beat
ing back over the difficult trail, who
caught the imagination of the crowd,
and there wasn't one who did not give
full credit TO Mrs. Macdonald Smith.

BILLY EVANS SAYS

The art of baserunning is fast be-
coming passe. This is the era of swat
in baseball. The theft of base, max
ing possible run, is no longer con-
sidered a logical system, for q club
to follow if it wants to win pen
nant. The chance isn't worth while,
is the prevailing opinion. If the run
ner is thrown out it kills possible
chance of getting cluster of tallies.
Modern managers work on the theory
that to win pennants you must get
your runs in punches. The thought
is that majority of ball games are
decided by one big inning.
The fact that baserunning is los
ing much of its importance was
fOrcibly brought to my attention dur
ing my tour of the major league
training camps last spring. In not 4
single camp did / see any of the
players being tutored i'm making
proper use of their speed.
McGraw used the old sand pit for
sliding purposes, and the Giants were
put through a course of sprouts in
baserunning, but the art of swat
ting the old pill was the all important
feature in every training camp. This
was in direct contrast to trip L
made through the training camps
about ten years back. At that time
l found the baserunning feature be-
ing given much consideration by
every manager. Each day certain
time was set aside to perfect the
players in the art of getting good
lead, so as to be away with the pitch.
Any player who showed unusual
speed was carefully tutored.
incidentally. the stunt Of tutoring
the runners i'm the art of getting 3
big lead, also worked to the. decided
advantage Of the pitchers. 1t helped
them perfect good move to first
base. The manager who failed to
take IN this feature Of play was
counting serious handicap.
Ty Cobb tells me that during the
early days of his career, yes, even
after he became a star, he spent much
time perfecting his work on the bases.
One stunt that Cobb used to adva1i-
tage was having some fielder stand
at the base with the ball in his pos
session, while he would try TO make
the base without being touched out.
Connie Mack. in an effort to perfect
his pitchers in holding the runners
close, would place one of his fast men
on the bases, instruct him to take a
big lead and then have the pitcher
try to pick him off.
No longer do these features OF
play take up much time in train.
ing camp or during the season. 1t
is to be regretted, because baserun-
ming is one of the big thrills OF tic
