SOPW|TH, IN HUFF,
SAYS NEVER AGAIN
Battle at Start, Protests by
Both Mar RainboW's De.
Gliding Triumph.
BY EDWARD J. NEIL,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

N NEWPORT, r. l., September rs.
nj Battered old Americas Cup
can go back to rest securely
today in Tiffany's jewelry
vaults on Fifth avenue, New York,
though the reverberations and the bit
terness of the Rainbow's victory prob
ably will roll up and down the shores
on both sides of the Atlantic for
months to come
Vowing that he never again would
challenge for the hallowed trophy,
thoroughly angry English millionaire,
Thomas Octave Murdoch Sopwith,
packed his duftie and slowed his pro-
tests and prepared to get out of here
as rapidly as possible, leaving behind
him his splendid blue bodied chaI-
lenger Endeavour and a controversy
as bitter, if not as explosive, as Lord
Dunraven's battling huff of 1895.
Comes to Sorry Ending.
TINE brilliant spectacle the yachts
/ made came to a sorry end last
night when Sopwith automat-
ically wound up his challenge by with
drawing the protest he made of Rain
bows fourth and deciding victory. a
protest entered chiefly in self-defenss.
Harold S. Mike Vanderbilt skip
per of the defender, had protested the
race first, but there was no point in
the Race Committee solemnly debating
whether they'd give Vanderbilt a de-
cision he had already won by the
margin Of IS seconds, so the matter
was dropped.
Thus Rainbow closed out the if
tenth series with four straight VIC
tories, all she needed, against two for
the blue hulled Englishman the pair
between them representing s2,5O0,000
sporting dollars.
All Fun Is Removed.
AVER the victory hung the cloud
of determinations that have
taken all the fun and sport
out of the thing since Sopwith filed
his first protest after Saturdays race
and was turned back by the COM
mittee. Sopwith has been Tuning
since then, and he broke into open
flame when he charged that exactly
the same foul he alleged Saturday
happened again before the start OF
yesterdays final drama.
Saturday, in the jockeying for the
start, he and Vanderbilt tangled for
the first time over the question of
right of way. Sopwith gave way
there, and again at the windward
mark, where he was leading. He lost
distance, and Vanderbilt came on to
win the race by minute and Is sec
onds.
After thinking it over for a couple
of hours, the Englshman hoisted his
protest flag and wrote the Race Com
mittee that If he hadn't given up his
legal rights on the ocean when he did,
serious collisions" would have fol-
lowed. The committee tossed out his
protest because he delayed so long put
ting up the flag.

"HE margin of a single game
representing two victories by
the Giants and two games
which the Cardinals have not
yet played-separated the National
League pennant contenders today as
they fought through a thrilling home
stretch duel.
The Cards split the difference right
down the middle yesterday when they
drove through to a 3-to-2 victory over
Pittsburgh behind the eminent Je-
rome Herman Dizzy Dean. while the
Giants were suffering 4to-0 shutout
from the Phillies, getting only four
hits off Young Curtis Davis.
The result put the Cards very much
into the running again. Each has lost
81 games So far. with SO victories for
the Giants and 81 for the Cards. st.
Louis has five games left to play
against New YorkS three.
May Need Special Series.
IF BOTH should sweep their remain
ing contests it would be a tie,
and one defeat for either team
before next Sunday may decide the
struggle. In case of a deadlock, the
teams would have to play a special
series, but the leagues Board of Di-

rangements, hasn't considered the
subject yet, hoping apparently that a
number of knotty problems about
time and place won't be brought up.
