Great Harness Freak
Could Run En- All
Into Ground
Taller Than He Is Long,
Breeding Strange, He
Is Turf Mystery
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, Aug. A great,
tall horse named Greyhound will
be hanging around like a ghost at
a banquet and taking the guests
minds of their provender during
the trotting of the $4,000 Hamble-
tonian Mile, worlds top harness
classic, next Wednesday at Goshen,
N. Y.
While the cream of the 3-year-
olds are pounding around the track,
raising clouds of dust to settle on
the fried-chicken tents, a lot of
the spectators will be waiting for
them to get through so Greyhound
can come out and give his lex
hibition." Or perhaps they will let
the pappy horse do his showing off
first and then turn the stage over
to the youngsters.
Greyhound Appears to Be Freak.
It's been four years now since
Greyhound won his Hambletonian,
and his successor isn't in sight.
He could trot them all into the
ground then and he still can. With
each passing summer it appears
more and more as though the long,
legged beast, whose stride has been
measured at 80 feet 4 inches. is a
marvellous freak that might never
be DUPLICATED.
Greyhound's world record for the
mile is 1854, or a speed of better
than 80 miles an hour with a heavy
driver and a rubber-tired sulky
hitched on behind. That is moving
The best they are hoping for in
the Hambletonian is about POI
mile, and that would be quarter
second faster than the existing rec
ord for the classic.
They aren't sure how Greyhound
happened. His sire, Guy Abbey, had
a record of 2:0634, but his dam,
Elizabeth, left no record and scarcely
was trained. They've tried the same
parents three times since, but two
full-brothers of Greyhound showed
Evening star., 1939-08-04
absolutely no promise and a sister
still Is yearling.

absolutely no promise and a sister
still is a yearling.
Fillies Do Well in Classic.
Fillies, incidentally, have a pretty
good record in the Hambletonian: ::
far better, for instance, than in the
Kentucky Derby. They have won
six of the previous events against
seven victories for the boy horses.
Greyhound, strangely enough, is
taller than he is long. He was what
they call a natural trotter. In
six years of trotting competition the
champ never has broken his great
stride but once. That was when a
spectator on the rail waved a hand
kerchief in his face.
There is a widely mistaken i'm
preston, by the way, that all trotters
have to be taught to trot. 1t isn't
SO. Watch a mare escorting her
weanling around the pasture and
every now and then the little
monkey will break into a trot.
On the other hand, some of them,
no matter how careful the breeding,
have to be put through a regular
course before they will adopt the
gait, and then they never trot very
fast. Even the best trotters have
weights attached to the front of
their hoofs. The weights make them
lift their legs higher and, con-
sequently, take longer strides.

this year, and perhaps they'll get
through without the usual trouble.
National Lures d. c. Women.
Mrs. Betty p Meckley, Indian
Spring star, isn't planning to at
tend the national women's cham
pionship this year. Betty has
changed her mind, and will play
at Shawnee and White Sulphur
Springs. But two more good golfers
from Washington have entered the
national. They are Mrs. F. J. Cod
frey and Mrs. Ellen Kincaid Harris,
the dark-haired girl, who as Ellen
kincaid, seemed to have definite
possibilities as one of the top golfers
around town. With Mrs. Myron
Davy of Congressional, Mrs.
Leo Walper, the District women's
champ, and Marion Brown, mid
Atlantic titleholder, the entry from
Washington will be fairly strong
this year. They won't bring the
championship home to the Capital,
but all these women can give q
good account of themselves in the
big tournament, even if there is
too much class around for them to
go far.
Two-Man Meet at Manor.
Max Taylor, acting golf chairman
at Manor in the absence of Harry
Pitt, announces the two-man team
championship Of the big club near
Norbeck. The first match round
will open Sunday with probably 30
or 40 pairs entered.
Max has reserved starting time
between l and 2 o'clock for the
Washington Baltimore team match
to be played at Manor. These teams
will be made up of 16 men each,
and the Washington team will be
weakened by the absence of Pitt,
Billy Shea and Ralph Bogart. In
their places Capt Roger Peacock
has asked Gene Pittman of Con-
gressional. and probably will ask
Taylor and Ralph Gibson of Manor,
two men who can play considerable
golf under any conditions.

Broadcast of Bottle
With Sturdy D. 6. S.

With the city sandlot baseball
championship series set to open Au-
gust IS, diamond interest around
town is turning toward the teams
which will represent the various
leagues in the series.
The city champion will represent
Washington in the national cham
pionships, and a team with its eyes
cooked on both titles is Interior.
The Interiors already virtually
have cGnched the title in the De-
partmental League and appear
strong enough to give a good ac-
count of themselves against what
ever teams represent the other
loops.
Tomorrow on the East Ellipse at
2 o'clock Interior plays D. G. S. and
should the former win it will have
both ends of the Departmental
League title all tied, sealed and de-
livered.
1t is with some apprehension that
Interior approaches tomorrow's
game, because even though it has
beaten every team in the league, it
always has experienced trouble in
taking the Grocers.
The Grocers, on the other hand,
have everything to gain and moth
ing to lose tomorrow.
The game has been selected as the
one for the regular series of sandlot
game broadcasts sponsored by The
Star and the National Broadcasting
Co. Bill Coyle, Star staff sports
commentator, and Ray Michael of
the N. B. c. staff will give play
by-play description of the contest
over WMAL.
Either Bill Liggett or Jim Murphy
will pitch for Interior and Herbert
De Vers or Spencer Bruce will hurl
for D. G. S.

Not IN many seasons at this time
Of year have the golf courses around
town been in such good shape as
they are right now, smack in the
middle of what in former years has
been bad time for brown patch.
Maybe brown patch, the headache
of greenkeepers, is ahead of us,
when the really hot, humid nights
OF mid-August come along, but so
far this year the pest hasn't hit in
profusion. Those greenkeepers and
course supervisors are responsible for
many thousands of dollars of expen-
sive putting greens. When brown
patch hits hard and devastates
thousands of square yards of velvet
putting surface in a single night
the members of the club start howl
ing, the greenkeeper wears a wor-
ried frown on his pan and every
body is disgusted.
But so far this year brown patch
hasn't been too bad Small patches
of what is called dollar spot"
meaning it's about the size of sill
yer dollar, have hit some of the put
ting green's around town, but the big
patches which destroy a third of a
green in "a hours haven't come
along. Modern greenkeeping sci
ence, which has taught greenkeepers
to dose the green's with various
preparations, has kept brown patch
fairly we'll under control. And still
the greenkeepers dread those hot
nights, without breath of air, when
the deadly stuff gets in its lethal
work.
Fairways in Good Shape.
Helped by copious rains the fair
ways around town are in the pink
of condition. Here and there you'll
see brown patches where the grass
has worn thin, but in the main the
fairways are very good Not like
the lush. green fairways of mid
May but good. for this time of year.
All in all it hasn't been a bad
season for keeping golf courses in
shape. And we hope the greenkeep-
ers' headaches don't come this year
There's nothing worse than to put
in endless hours on golf course,
nurse the green's along until they
look like and feel like velvet and
then see them 60 in a single night.
It's one of the things the green
keepers have to put up with every

Lack Of Organization
Holds Back Capital
Public Linksmen
AffiIiotion With Parent
Body Would Open Way
Into More Journeys

Public links golfers around WASH
lngton, anxious to play in sectional
and national championships, are
wasting lot of time.
Barred from participation in all
sectional title events because they
do not have an organization among
themselves. and from taking part in
all national events with the excep-
ton of the public links champion
ship, they should have a strong Or
ganization in Washington similar to
the Public Parks Coli Association
in Baltimore. But they do not have
any such organization, and until they
do organize they'll 60 along beating
futilely at the restrictions that bar
them from events outside their own
restricted circle.
Oliveri Topnotcher.
There are some pretty good golf
ers playing the public courses in
Washington. Andrew Oliveri, the
chubby Rock Creek Park golfer, who
qualified well up in the recent ma
tional tourney at Baltimore, is one
of the best in the land. Jim Gipe,
Bob Morris, Bobby Burton and Ted
Burrows are good golfers, and can
win in any company.
But because they don't belong to
public links organization affiliated
with the United States Golf Associa-
ton, and sectional association,
they must 60 on playing in public
links affairs, in very restricted
circle.
Tommy Doerer has the right idea.
The East Potomac manager has been
trying for months to get those public
links golfers organized. He has run
into obstacles, but he is keeping on
with the idea.
Would Cover Entire Section
Before long, if he has his way,
you'll see not only a local public
links organization. but one covering
the entire mid-Atlantic territory,
which means Baltimore, Richmond,
Norfolk and other cities which sup
port public links golf
If the public links boys are satisfied
to play in their own tournaments
that's all right. But the top ones are
not. Latest case to come up was the
barring of Andy Oliveri from the
team match between Washington
and Baltimore amateurs at Manor
Sunday. Andy happens to be among
the first four or five simon pures
around the Capital. But he couldn't
play because he wasn't a member of
member club. If he belonged to a
strong public links organization un-
doubtedly he would be permitted to
play. But he isn't and he's out.
The public links golfers want
something, but they don't do any,
thing about it. A strong organiza-
ton would do the trick.
