for a brief second, did not even
smile.

They went on and left him, Anne

went back to his work wanting to
kick himself for his senseless irrita-

mother had brought those damnable
stories to hm there had been a raw
spot in him which had smarted at
the lightest touch.
Anne went directly to her room,
and the three men returned to the
billiard-room to take up the game
which the Wild Ducks futtering
approach had interrupted. Riddle,
chalking his cue, proffered a word
of advice.
Better go easy with your little
jokes, Dick. Duane seems to be
something of a Turk about his
wife"
"How was I to know that he'd
go early-Victorian on me?"
''She handled the blonde rather
well,' Riddle remarked absently.
"Well, that was a mistake"

HOLY CROSS TO | ERECT ELECTRIC CRIDIRON CLOCK
Expect to RevOlutiOnize Timing of Game-to Be
 Ready Tomorrow

Worcester, Sept 21.-A giant electric football clock, product of the Western Union Telegraph Company is being constructed on Fitton Field for use at all the foot ball games played by Holy Cross this fall It will be ready for op- eration at the opening game with St. Anselm's College at the South Worcester Stadium tomorrow, and will add an unexpected thrill to the big games.
 First In East
 This clock electrically control led and operated by the Western Union, is the first of it's kind ever used in the East for football games and its use in expected to revolu- tionize the timing of the game. The clock is the identical timing de- vice used when Glenn Cunningham ran a mile in minutes, 6.7 sec- Onds, the fastest a human ever travelled on two legs.
 That day last spring, this giant clock gave the gathering and contestants accurate knowledge of the great drama which was being enacted by Father Time around the ribbon of cinders in Palmer Stadium. The clock, accurate to the tenth of a second, provided as great thrill as it ticked off it's story, as did the running of Cum ningham himself.
 The clock is being erected at the top of the east stands. It has face which is 30 feet in circum- ference with two separate dials. The huge dials are white, with the outer or larger dial, graduated in seconds and the inner marked off in five, 10 and Is minutes with subdivisions of the minutes. A large black hand checks off the seconds on the outer dial and smaller hand colored bright red revolves around the inner dial marking off the minutes.
 Siren Calls Time
 The clock is powered by cleo tricity and control is exercised from the sidelines by a simple switch. A representative from each team operates the clock, turning the switch to start it and turning it off to stop it.
 The field judge is no longer re- quired to keep the time except dur ing time outs. Then the field judge will use his stop watch to catch the two minute intervals.
 Attached to the clock is a large electric siren. This siren horn may be automatically operated so that it will sound loudly and clearly when the time of the periods is completed. That is, just as soon as 15 minutes is licked off on the clock, the horn blows and every- body, including players and off, cials, knows exactly when the time is up.
 The Western Union Telegraph Company will have man on hand constantly while the clock is being used to service it. The inventor, MT R. Steeneck is here superin- tending the building and installa- tion of the clock and he will be here Saturday during the game to see that it runs properly.

TODANS SPORTPARADE bAAf&h9@
BY HENRY McLEMORE United Press Stan Correspondent,

Newport, R. l., Sept 20.-(UP)- Sir Anthony Jenkinson, bart, ot Balliol college. Oxford, and May fair, London, stood on the after deck of the yacht Norsaga, his blue eyes riveted on the sea.
 Straight ahead he could see a sight calculated to send British blood rushing through British veins like water through a fire hose. En- deavour, the white foam whipping her deep blue hull, was leading Rainbow half mile, and seemed certain winner of her third straight Americas cup victory. But Sir Anthony was a study in disconsolateness. To look at his face you would have thought that Endeavour had just sprung a leak or lost mast. He was positively downcast.
 'Sir Anthony" I said, stepping to his side, whats the matter?" He turned, and his eyes were sor- rowful.
 "It's the Yankees" he an- swered. They're out of it."
 "The Yankee!" I exclaimed, "why Sir Anthony, the Yankee is not in this race. She was beaten in the trials by Rainbow, and lies in drydock in Boston"
 You misunderstood me-" an- swered the young baronet, T mean the New York Yankees. The baseball team. The, Tigers have them beaten. They are licked, as you say. And I'm sorry"
 What a Shock!
 Frankly, this was a bit of a shock. Here I was, out in the At- lantic ocean, watching an Amer ica's cup races. Baseball seemed far away. Besides, I was talking to a young English baronet, a young man who edited the Oxford Isis, and who had no earthly right even to have heard of the Yankees, much less be interested in them.
 So I asked Sir Anthony what i! was all about, and, employing an accent that was as Oxford as the quad, and punctuating his sentences with puffs on his pipe, he told his story.
 Three years ago friend in New York gave Sir Anthony a sub- scription to New York newspa- per primarily to start fires in the grate of his little diggings at Ox- ford.
 Then he started reading it, casu- ally at first, then intently. Before he knew it the baseball virus had his red corpuscles aflame. He had never seen game-didn't know a double play from a base on balls but the facts and figures were at his finger tips. He knew Groves earned run average; won- dered If the Cubs made a mistake in buying Babe Herman. He used to get a great deal of en- joyment by baffling American &C., quaintances with his knowledge of what was going on in Judge Lan- dis realm.
 Somehow the Yankees got a grip on him. They became his team.
 Then he came to America to see the yacht races. But it was base ball he really wanted to see.
 Above all he wanted to see the Tanks trample the Tigers and make the World Series.
 His Day Is Coming
 But the Tanks didn't trample the Tigers. and the yacht races string out so long he has yet to Sir Anthony Jenkinson, baronet, was sad.
 But next week he won't be. I'll have him in the dugout yelling at the athletes.

 Conceding IS pounds, Gainer was none too impressive in his triumph and should have flat tened the highly publicized battler considerably earlier, for Huttick, seconded by Jimmy Bronson, who filled similar role for Gene Tun- ney in his two bouts with Demp- sey, couldn't break a peanut. From the third round on knockout was expected as the tubby warrior was breathing like a pump and lost the dancing tactics he exhibited in the previous frames.
 Carr Looks Bad
 It was easily pointed out in the semi i-final, bout which saw the crippled Al Rossi of Newark talk ing a deserved six-round decision from Eddie Carr, Waterbury's col- pred pride, that the local boy never will go anywhere in fistic circles if he continues to be facory mill hand. The Italian lad, sporting a game right leg, was too smart for Carr and took the first four rounds although the Negro easily took the last two.
 One Good Fight
 The third bout of the evening, the only interesting one presented sasw Frankie Smith, 137, of Nor walk taking six round verdict from Frankie Williams, 136, Nor- walk Negro. The latter copped the first two rounds easily, but tired in the next two as the white boy seemed to get stronger and threw punches from all directions. The last round was dandy with Williams doing most of the re- ceiving.
 Bronx Cheers Heard
 Two big palookas, Al Truman, ITO, of California, (supposedly)' and Paul Marques, 174, of New York, fought six rounds in the second contest with the former getting the, nod although nobody cared. The fans enjoyed them selves for the IS minutes stamping their feet, clapping and giving a good demonstration of how "ras- berries' should be given.
 Opener Is Fair
 The first bout, one of four rounds, show the aggressive Jimmy Stewart, New Haven negro, out pointing Steve Vane, 126, of Derby in . fair bout. The colored lad was too smart throughout and scored two knockdowns but Vane managed to weather the storm and finish a close second.

DARK SECRET CHAMPION DIS. TANCE HORSE TO LAST
 LAST STRIDE.

Belmont Park, L. l., = Racing could i'll afford to lose Chase Me, the family pet, and the breeding would has only a faint knowledge of it's loss in the demise of Vic- torian. Yet compared to these the destroying of the Wheatley Stables Dark Secret is like the passing of king.
 Dark Secret was something more than racing tool. He was a brilliant stud prospect as well. A better race horse than either Victorian or Chase Me, his stud prospects were just as bright as were thost of the former.
 In Dark Secret, breeders saw hope for the survival of the line of Ogden, string which only The Films son, Flying Ebony, seemed able to perpetuate. Flying Ebony is the finest son of the Finn now in stud duty, and who can deny that Flying Ebony did not out breed himself when he bred Dark Secret from Silencia, daughter of King James?
 What pity that this country's best cup horse of the last two years broke leg three strides after winning his second straight Jockey Club Gold Cup over two miles of sloppy going. Dark Secret was a champion to the last long step, beating William Woodward 5 Faireno by a head. They paid off on dead horse.
 Mightiest Marathoner
 Since Great Crusader
 Dark secret was no great shakes as ? year-old, nor yet when he began his 3-year-old campaingn. AS he has since shown, the big roan could not get into his best shape in the spring and early summer and thus missed the big 3year- old specials, such as the Kentucky Derby, Preakness, Withers, Dwyel and Belmont Stakes.
 Dark secret rounded into his sharpest conditioned in the fall o1 1882, when he was one of the fleetest then running.
 But it was as a 4-year-old that he revealed his true ability. The | winner of nearly a dozen impor- tant stake events, he proved him. self the foremost distance horse since the days of the peerless | Crusader.
 Strangely Dark Secrets con- nections seemed to heve had lit- tie idea of his forte for marathon ing. Presumably, he was entered in the Manhattan Handicap mere- ly because he was fit to turn in a powerful race. This he did, ruler, M. l.. Schwartz's Gusto, with de- cided ease.

 TITLE YESTERDAY
Fred Patience Cards an 8 for Championship LO-
 cal Men Play

New Britain, Sept. 21.-Fred Pa tience Of Wampanoag, who came within an ace of winning the Ma tional Seniors tournament his first year in the organization, won the first Connecticut Golf Association junior-senior tournament yester- day at the Shuttle Meadow club.
 There were two divisions, one for men between 40 and 50 and kl1s other for players 51 and over. The best score among the ''youngsters, was the 82 returned by R. w. Nich- ols of New Haven. Patience, with place among the veterans, was one shot better than anyone else fn either division.
 There were two prizes given in each division, one gross and one net. Nichols won the gross in. the 40 to 50 year old division, and ". A. Bailey of Shuttle Meadow was the net winner with 87-14-73. Patience naturally was the big gross winner in the 51 and oyer class. The net winner in this group was H. H. Pease, another shuttle Meadow entrant, who had 84-10- "A.
 The tournament, the first of its kind ever tried by the CGA, was not exactly a bowling success. for only 29 showed up to play. The idea is a good one, however, and another year it may be built up to become one of the most attractive events on the schedule.
 Patience was in serious difiicuI- ty only at the start of each nine and at the finish of the IS. The Wampanoag man had six to start with six on the ninth and a six on the par five finishing hole. He picked up his only birdie of the round on the seventh hole. His card:
