For all but Warren the handwrit-

pretended he did for appearances.
The fact that he must of neces-

naturally is annoying to Coach
Flaherty, who undoubtedly will put
off his hardest task until the last
possible moment. Because of the
surplus of rookie backs, it appears
that at least two oldtimers of the

BERRYVILLE, Va. Aug. 18.-

of the 38th annual Berryville Horse

several important classes drew many
of Virginia S best performers for the
closing program.
Sally Port, consistent brown mare
in Mr.. and Mrs. George P. Green

was named for the Corinthian
hunter hacks and working hunters
today. Of her form yesterday
which brought a blue in both the
women's and lightweight hunters
she figured to pick up enough points
to gain the title.
Hot Tiff for Jumper Title.
The jumper crown promised plenty
of stiff competition, with at least
three horses in the running Mr.
and Mrs. w. Haggin Perry's giant
Santa Claus took top honors with a
hard-earned triumph in the touch
and-out yesterday when he was
forced to jump five times with How

Gay Cockade before gaining the
blue.
Day Spring, something of an out
slider, surprised by winning the han
dicap jumpers from select field
that included all the eligibles for
the championship. Day Spring. a
3-year old owned by the North Hill
Farm of Mrs. Lily Livingston, had
to jump-off twice with Mrs. Hay

ST. JOHN, New Brunswick, Aug.
l8.-That mythical parsonage, Old
Man Par, can hold up his head
with considerable pride over the
first-round results of the Cana
dian open golf championship
though if he does he's quite likely
to get it beaten of before the tour

After the leading pros of Canada
and the United States had spent
a couple of days at practice over
the short Riverside course they
predicted its par 10 would take a
terrific drubbing. But old Mr.. Par
showed them yesterday that deep
bunkers, thick woods and a brisk
breeze across the fairways can do a
lot to make up for lack of length.
When the field of 80 finished the
first round there were four sub

tai and lot at IS or higher. Harold

Lack Of Time 10 Keen
Peacock From j. :.
Golf Tourney.
Capitals Amateur Star
Decides to Wait for
1910 Title Event

Roger Peacock, the Indian Spring
whirlwind, who happens to be the
only amateur playing tournament
golf around town today to win
all three big sectional titles in this
territory, is not going to try for the
national amateur championship this
year.
At a time when Roger holds the
Middle Atlantic title and probably
is playing sounder golf than ever
before, he has decided to pass up
bid for the big title. He could
well be quite a factor in the tourna-
ment If he went to Chicago next
month and qualified for match play,
because Roger Peacock happens to
be one of the better golfers of
the land at period when amateur
golf isn't at tops.
Can't Afford Time, Money.
Takes too much time and too
much money for me just now" said
Roger. Il just can't take those
two weeks away in September.
Which is about what the amateur
title tournament takes, plus hours
and days spent in practice.
Peacock is the only man playing
tournament golf nowadays who has
held the mid-Atlantic, District and
Maryland titles. He is the present
mid-Atlantic champ and as the
title holder is rated tops in this
sector. So it's a shame he isn't
going to be able to play in the
national. He undoubtedly would
qualify in the sectional test at Five
Farms on August % and he might
we'll be whirlwind in the cham
pionship itself.
-Four years ago at Cleveland
Roger was ball of fire in the
national. He whipped Hickman
Greene, Bob Sweeney, who later
won the British amateur Champion
ship, and then fell before an in
spired putting touch of Eddie Held,
VINO naQ ABOUT as much right TO
lick Roger as Andy Oliveri has to
whip Ralph Guldahl Next to Law
son Little, who was red-hot in that
tournament, Peacock was the hottest
golfer.
Will Try in 1910.
And he could be again. Just now
he is hitting those iron shots as
if they were ruled on a string. He's
literally knocking the pin out of
the hole. But I'll wait until next
year." says Roger, when the tour
| nament comes East again"
1t will be played at Winged Foot,
near Mamaroneck, N. Y, in 1910.
But Roger may not be as good next
year. He isn't getting any younger
and championships these days are
being won by men under 80

Gehrig's Loss Greatest
Blow to Champions

Then something happened. They
ran into five defeats in row at
the hands of the Red SoX and so
their lead was lessened. They have
faltered now and then since that
blow fell upon them. They have
worn out in spots. Lou Gehrig Is
through, Vernon Gomez is having
difficulty winning, Atley Donald
seems to have mislaid the magic
of his earlier pitching and the at
tack once practically continuous,
has been scattered.
The greatest loss they have suf-
fered, of course. has been the loss
of Gehrig. This is no reflection on
Babe Dahlgren, the best fielding
first baseman in the game today
and one of the best the game ever
has known. He has done a mag
nificent job and has tightened up
the Yankee defense, which had come
loose at first base in the last days
of Gehrig's service
But with Dahlgren or anybody
else but Gehrig on first base-that
is, the Gehrig that used to be
the Yankees were bound to be weak
