Attractive Program of Grand
Circuit Events at Fair
ground-Murphy Stars.

After great start on Monday in
which the largest crowd ever to wit
ness Labor day race program at
the State fair was in attendance,
the Grand Circuit events were sched-
uled for another big day this after
noon.
Today's program promised to be
one of the best cards of the week.
Four races were to be decided: The
trotting division of the Horseman
stake, the free-for-au pace, the 2:0S
pace and the Governors purse for
2:1S trotters.
Four Great Trotters
The Horseman Stake for 3-year-
old trotters will bring out four of
the greatest in the land. The four
scheduled to start were Aileen Guy,
Sam Williams, Worthy Harvester
and Hot Teddy.
The free-for-an pace looks to be
another corker. Sir Roch defeated
practically the same horses at Mil
w1uhee last week and is a logical
choice for the event.
Large Field Entered
Crawford is selected by experts as
having the best chance in the 2:1S
trot in which the largest field Of the
day was carded to go. Norman Graf
tan looked like the best Of the field
Of four in the 2:08 pace.
Tommy Murphy, the Syracuse
reinsman, landed two victories on
Monday with the Trumpet in the
Ayres stake and Hollywood Leonard
in the Pluto stake.

SPEEDWAY. ALTOONA. Pa.
Sept. s.-With his big car snorting
fire, Bob McDonogh Numbered
across the line, the winner OF the
annual 250-mile Labor day race on
the Altoona Speedway, without hav-
ing abated his speed for an instant
from start to finish. Then. after
he had circled the track twice more
in order to roll to a stop. Nc
Donogh's right rear tire went out
with a report like a gun-shot, a
mishap which might have wrecked
him If it had happened q minute
earlier.
Harry Hartz was second and Dorl
Cooper third. The next two racers
to finish were Duray and Conner
in that order.
McDonogh Tapped the entire field
on the eighty-seventh whirl around
the circle. He was making a speed
Of 121 miles an hour, or three miles
above the record. At the halfway
mark. 125 miles, McDonogh was
leading with Duray second, Frank
Elliott third and Harry Hartz fourth.
McDonogh's car was stu Tar in
front at the three-quarters stage,
making at that time 100 miles an
hour. Cooper and Hartz were trying
hard to press him and we're making
wonderful race between them.
Benny Hill, who took the lead at
the start, was forced off the track
at the fifth lap by engine trouble,
giving way to McDonogh, who de-
Tended his advantage with the most
reckless disregard for his safety.
Twelve of the fifteen starters I'm
ished and there were no accidents.
although Jimmy Hill had a bad
skid just before the official start,
and almost went into the grand
stand. Jimny's car was withdrawn
on the twenty-flfth lap because Of

other driver who failed to stay. Ills

= the DOPE

By VEDDER GARD

@OO many Of the big guns in
amateur golf lost out in the
qualifying play last week at
Pittsburgh. A loud squawk has
gone up about the plan used and
it is likely the United States Golf
Association will ponder deeply be-
fore deciding on the schedule for
next years tourney. Bobby jones
probably didn't say a word.
Only sixteen men were quail
fled in this seasons champion
ship tournament instead OF
thirty-two as in the past. The
reduction of the field caused the
elimination of Francis Ouimet
and Bob Gardner, former
champs, ard a good many OF
the other stars.
They have to be eliminated some
time-tha. is, all but ONE but IL
seems as though they haze to dis
appear in the qualifying round.
Who can blame 'em?
- One of the proposals suggested
is the staging of sectional qualify
ing rounds as is done in the na-
tional open and professional meets.
Under this arrangement sixty
four would be eligible to start in
the national championships.
Those who are against this
years plan claim that many OF
the players, even some who
qualified, were not satisfied. 1t
is stated that the plan placed
all unfair strain upon veterans
with regulations to maintain
h. when they were forced to shoot
for sixteen places in a qualifying
field of 1873.
We can not exactly see the logic
of this. but then we are not
supposed to, not being a golf lex
pert"

here by Feridoun Pasha, father of
