With so many big and small track3 in operation the marvel of it is that there are enough horses to go round. In some instances a course is short of entries, but it is because of unequal distribution. One meeting will have unwieldy fields while another has difficulty in making out its program. There always seems to be plenty of equine racers. The only answer is that there must have been a large increase in thoroughbred stock in the past few years. That has to be the explanation because tracks are hi operation East, West, South and North. There are meetings in progress right now that one very seldom hears about. They're small, of course, but the little ones need some sort of horses to fill out their cards the same as the big fellows. Canucks Like It There are six tracks around Vancouver, British Columbia. They’re racing up there in the Northwest now. Canada is chuck full of race courses around the big cities. Kempton Park, Montreal, k closes a meeting today and King ", Edward Park opens on next Wednesday. There are numerous otheb courses around Montreal. Niagara Falls, Ont., starts a meeting today. Windsor also opens today for a seven-day meeting. Willows Park at Vancouver, B. C. has a meeting in progress now. Ohio has any number of small tracks. Thistledown *at Cleveland opens a nineteen-day meeting on Monday. Why, they’re racing at Reno, where with your other separations they guarantee to divorce you from your money. New Tracks Start A number of new tracks have opened up lately. Miami had a successful winter season and Coney Island, near Cincinnati, is getting patronage this summer. A twenty-seven-day' meeting is in progress now at Salt Lake City, Utah, with the rew pari-mutuel law the cause of it all. Dade Park, down near Evansville, Ind., and Henderson, Ky., will try it again this summer in August and first of September for twenty days. This may be the age of the automobile, but there are plenty of horses left. • • • EVEN SAINTS GET TIRED OF TURNING THE OTHER CHEEK. THEY | FINALLY UP AND WALLOPED THE I COCKSURE COLONELS. r* * • We rise to remark —Where would the Washington cl,ub be this year if Harris had not picked up Stan Coveleskie, the veteran pitcher, from Cleveland? If the Senators win they should pin the pennant on the Pole when they celebrate flag raising day. • • • A" ““l s Dempsey doesn’t get much mention in the papers * we’ll say a few words about the champion. (It will be as few as possible.) What we want to know is why Kearns packed up and left New York just when he knew Dempsey was due to get back from Europe? We have a sneaking hunch that it was so the two Jacks could argue from the Pacific Coast to the Atlantic, about onb thing and another. It is a beautiful broadcasting scheme. If Kearns had stayed in New York there would have been sbme sort of a showdown almost certainly. Now, well, they can go on talking and talking and the press associations can go on broadcasting. That’s that. ♦ * • o -o : ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY : o o POMPEY (third. Empire—a fast colt). DANBY (fourth. Empire—must beat Silver Fox. that’s all). I OLD SLIP (fifth, ltaceland—Deeming Is b dangerous). KVERGI.ADE (first, Hawthorne—must f In at Marionette). MIDWESTERN (sixth. Hawthotne—plenty of competition). CHICAGO (second, Hawthorne—a short price). PINDAR PEEL (third Coney Island—he’s plenty fast). MAX 1 >tANEH (seventh. Coney Island—ln with a feather). • • * EORGE LOTT Is all of that among the tennis players. ——J The 18-year-old youth from Chicago is a wizard on the courts and getting better each year. He isn’t going to beat Tilden just yet, but he may some time be a champion. His defeat of Howard Kinsey in the National Clay Court meet shows just now good the youth is getting. * SAYS HE HAS A VERBAL AGREEMENT TO MEET DEMPSEY IN SEPTEMBER. NOT EVEN A SCRAP OF PAPER. -- • • • Stribling put out Jack Matlock in the third round of their bout at Wicliita, Kans. The Georgian probably got a strangle hold. • * • EWEN Old Man Percentage is good to the underdogs. u By a freak of mathematics the teams with high averages do not gain as much when they win as they decline when they lose. The opposite is true of the clubs with low averages. As an example, Louisville had a percentage of .689 before Friday's game. By losing the Colo"nels dropped eight points to .681. If they had won they would have gained only three points, going up to .692. Columbus, with a percentage of .386, losit, and dropped five points to .381. If the Senators had won they would have gone up seven points to .383.

TRIBESMEN TO PERFORM IN ST. PAUL SUNDAY Indians Meet Allen’s Team After Finale With Millers Today—Friday Game Lost in Ninth. Bu Times Special MINNEAPOLIS, July 18.—After staging the series finale with the hard-hitting Millers today, Ownie Bush’s Indians will make another change of pasture and perform in St. Paul Sunday. The Tribesmen will be in the camp of Nick Allen’s team four days, and the Saint series will close the Hoosiers’ present trip.

The Indians will return to Indianapolis after the St. Paul contests, meeting the league-leading Colonels at Washington Park July 24. The Tribe has an off day 23, which will be spent in traveling. Great stuff at the Miller park Friday! It was another defeat for the Indians, 8 to 6, but they gave the home fans swell entertainment. Fact of the matter they nearly got away with anew one for the book, and were robbed of an unusual feat by Johnny Butler, who socked a homer over the short fence with two gone in the ninth and two mates on base. Only Seven Hits The Indians came close to winning the game on seven hits, 6 to 6, and had they done so the local rooters probably would have spent all Friday night in tears. It took nineteen hits t 6 down the Tribesmen, the nineteenth souk being Butler’s gameydnning home run In the final session. Bob McGraw, ace of the Miller staff, opposed Henry, and it was MeGraw's 'tenth straight pitching victory and his seventeenth “win” of the season. Henry was found for many safeties, but local swatters had much trouble solving his slants with men on base, thirteen Millers being left stranded. Here's how the Indians were nosed out in the ninth. Black and Sengstock were disposed of easily. One more “out” was needed to give thq Tribe victory. Manager Kelley of the Millers used Schmell to bat for McGraw, and Schmell doubled. Loses Control Henry weakened and walked Jourdan after getting the count three and two. Butler came up and Henry again got In the hole. He issued two balls and had to put the next one “in there.” Butler picked on the “cripple” and drove the ball over the short fence, scoring Schmell and Jourdan ahead of him. The Millers needed only two runs, but Butler’s run also counted, because the ball went out of the lot. Butler also got three doubles during the game. The Friday victory gave the Millers two out of three on tha series and boosted therh back into the first division above the Tribe, which fell to fifth place.
