SPECTATOR FLEET
| AT CLASSIC FADES
ShamroCk'S Poor Showing in
Opening Race DampenS
Interest in Series.
BY TOM MORGAN,
Associated Press STAFF Writer,

N NEWPORT, r. l., September
N 15.-The saucy Enterprise,
4 Y Harold S. Vanderbilt's de-
fender of the Americas
Cup, and Shamrock v, Sir
Thomas Lipton's green-hulled
challenger, had another engage
ment today.
Enterprises victory in the initial race
of the. series Saturday did much to
lessen interest in the international
yachting classic. The spectator feet
had noticeably dwindled today from the
armada which followed the racing
yachts on Saturday. Many of Satur-
days spectators were those who were
not fortunate enough to be able to
ignore the claims of trade and industry
"a week day and forced return to
shop and Office.
Sails Untitled.
Mary who watched Shamrock's hope
less chase of Enterprise Saturday were
forced to revise estimations of her form
ed on reports that had filtered over
ahead of her from British waters that
she was virtual water sprite in light
air Her canvas seemed too heavy, as
compared to the gossamer wings of the
American defender Often during the
race Shamrocks head sails huttered
emptily, while those of Enterprise bill
lowed out smoothly.
Saturdays conditions we're supposed
to have represented Shamrocks own
choice in weather She had ghosted
around local waters in the faintest of
zephyrs before the series opened.
Breeze Was FIukey.
Saturday the boats ran Is miles to
leeward and returned, today they had
TO race around a 30-mile triangular
course, beginning at 10:40 am. est. .
Shamrock v today remained essen
TALLY an unknown quantity. Saturdays
race was sailed in a fiukey breeze and
it is impossible to state which reaped
the greater advantage from the winds
fickleness.
British yachtmen. too, are known to
be very agreeable to sailing in a good
stout breeze and what they regard as
light air may be considered a very fair
sailing breeze by American shippers.

track record set by the late Bob Robin
son. Robinson's record had been 10

Enternrise and Shamrock V.

THE big burden of proof now is upon
i the veteran shoulders of Sir Thomas
Upton and his Shamrock V. The
entire world may be pulling for him to
win, but that won't be enough to pull
him through if Saturdays race was
fair test of the comparative merits of
the two yachts. Enterprise won by
900 yards and it was evident this
1000 yards might have been trif1e
greater distance if there had been any
need for the same.
Possibly 1000 yards isn't as long as
it seems when it comes to matter OF
yacht races, but 1t looks to be fair
proof that II Shamrock v wins a race
or two it will have to be in generally
different weather. And, as rule, Sep
TENDER generally can be counted on to
make good in this respect.

both wood and iron is one Of the out
standing features of golf.
Known as one of the greatest iron
players of all time, Armour also is one
of the finest wooden players-not only
in the way of accuracy but also in the
way of length. When he decides to
lean against a drive there are few
longer, although, like Bobby Jones, he
only extends himself when he has to-
when the length of the hole requires
extra distance to get one home in 2.
Armour now is one of the few pros
who have won both the United States
open and the P G. A. crown The others
are Hagen, Barnes and Sarazen. To
win these two titles is final proof of
strength in both medal and match
play, for at Fresh Meadow last week
any one who went above 70 or 70 was
facing certain trouble.
Armour now is playing the best golf
of his career. His amazing rounds in
the Canadian open, which he won, and
his play at Fresh Meadow, are two of
the seasons finest contributions to the
art and skill of the game. There prob
ably is no one else in golf who can lay
as many long irons close to the pins,
played to suit the wind with a fade or
pull, and this is the proof of shot
making science.
Sarazen also has had one Of the best
years he ever has known. and the fact
that the matter of a single putt was all
that barred his way to another big title
shows his place In the fast pace of the
modern game.
That Pennant Race.
WHEN situation gets as taut as the
w National League pennant race is
today something is bound TO bend,

The season closes a week from next
Sunday, so there isn't much time left.
In that brief space the Cardinals
must face the Braves, Dodgers, Phillies
and Pirates.
The Dodgers must tackle the Reds,
Cardinals, Pirates, Giants, Phillies and
Braves.
The Cubs face Phillies, Giants Braves
and Reds.
The Dodgers close their season with
the Braves, the Cubs with the Reds and
the Cardinals with the Pirates. The
Cubs have a slightly softer schedule left.
but there is nothing soft when every
base hit may mean the pennant and
every error may mean the pennant for
some one else.
With two weeks to go, this stretch
running should provide one of the best
shows base ball ever has known, and
the decisive break might not come until
Dodgers and Cardinals hook I'D in
Brooklyn this week. If Brooklyn can't
stop the wild rush of this Western club
no one else can.

1t was still "a great game" and the

When Connie Mack broke into the
big leagues, in 1886, with the Washing
ton club of the National League, Adrian
G. (Pop) Arson was in his prime, the
slugger of sluggers and the Babe Ruth
of his day.
Seven balls entitled batsman to
first base then and it was legal for the
bat to be fiat on one side.
The Baltimore orioles, greatest of
cld-time teams, ruled the roost when
Mack had his first engagement as
major league manager with Pittsburgh
in midseason of 1894.
Hans Wagner was then only boy
playing on the sandlots. Hugh Duffy
of the Bostons was batting king. with
the record major league percentage OF
ABB.
John McGraw, later Mack's great world
series rival, was Just taking over the
helm of the Giants when Connie won

Athletics, the club with which the tall

MACK led another championship

series, in 1905, the year that Ty
Cobb broke into the big leagues with
Detroit
Twenty-three years later Cobb played
his last major league season under the
leadership of Mack, who has stamped
the Georgian with his unqualified
choice as the greatest all-around player
the game has ever known.
-. Babe Ruth bounded into the big
show as a southpaw pitcher IN 1914
when Mack was leading his fifth
championship machine. That was the
team that brought him his greatest
fame as we'll as his worst world series
defeat: the combination with the $780,
600 infield that he startled the base ball
world by wrecking in 1915.
