National League Pennant Contenders Scheduled to Swing Into Action

6 Races on Circuit Card at State Fair ‘Big Money’ Events Run Off on Closing Program of Meet. Six races at the State Fairground track today were to ring down the curtain on the Grand Circuit meeting which has been in progress here this week. T.n addition to the four scheduled races, the two “big money” events postponed from Wednesday also were to be run off. The two big events on today’s card were the $14,885 Frank P. Fox pacing stake for 2-year-olds and the $5,000 Silver Flash, 2:10 pacing stake. The other races were the 2:18 trot, 2:06 pace stake, The Senator Farm, 2:12 pace stake, Stegemeier Cafeteria, and the 3-vear-old Marott Shoe Shop trotting stake. All were for SI,OOO purses with the exception of the Stegemeier race, which was for $2,000. Two Races Held Over The Fox stake and Silver Flash race were to have been run Thursday, but a slow track coupled with a heavy program caused State Fair officials to hold the races over. An exceptionally large crowd jammed the grand stands Thursday to witness the races. Many thrills were provided and in several instances the horses finished neck and neck with speculation running rife until the official announcement. Close Finish One such event was the third event Thursday, the 2:12 trot for SI,OOO. Margaret Axtien, driven by Harris, and Sylbil Volo, driven by Parshall, came down the stretch together, Harris barely nosing home a victory. Spencer driven by McDonald in the 2-year-old trot and Minia Dillon driven by Loomis in the 2:05 trot had rather easy going in their respective races. Both breezed home winners in both heats.

Second Place Giants Open Series With Cubs in Chicago. MAY ELIMINATE LOSER Pirates, Cardinals Play TailEnd Teams. All of the National League contenders were scheduled to play today with the second-place Giants meeting the third-place Cubs and Pittsburgh and St. Louis playing with the tail-enders of the league on their home grounds. The GiantsCubs series will be crucial in that it virtually may eliminate one club from the race. The Cubs were in third place by half a game by reason of their batting prowess against the Cardinals Thursday. Four St. Louis pitchers faced the Chicagoans and yielded sixteen hits. Charlie Root pitched a ragged game and had to be taken nut in the ninth, but he was credited with his twenty-fifth victory. The score was 11 to 7. It was the only National League game played.

The league leaders have not lost a game to St. Louis. Carl Reynolds, rookie outfielder, was responsible for three runs in the White Sox’ 4-3 victory over Washington.

GOLF NEWS AND GOSSIP

BY DICK MILLER Wanted—an expert mathematician. That, perhaps, was the combined thought of Eddie Zimmer and George T. O’Connor today as they perused the flock of figures representing the scores of some eighty golfers turned In Thursday in the annual tourney of the Indianapolis A. C. over the Highland course. . The job of tabulating the scores wasKmade difficult by the fact the players had chances for prizes other than those for low gross and net prizes for eighteen and thirty-six holes of play. Prizes also were to be given the winners in various flights, determined by their morning round scores. However, both Eddie and Qeorge are well acquainted with the complete alphabet when it comes to golf scoring and when they are finished the result probably will be well nigh perfect. Prizes are to be given at a dinner Monday night. Final matches in all flights of the Avalon Country Club tourney are to be played this week-end. Herman Seilken and Ray Roberson will battle 36 holes for the club title.
