By Eddie Ash Harness Racing Given Boost This Year m * m Fast Steppers Go Big at State Fair
HPHF Hambletonian trot, harness horse classic! was credited this year with stirring up more interest in sulky racing. New York sports writers were induced to take a day off and journey to Goshen in their own state to watch the Kentucky Derby of the light harness world. The big town scriveners were inclined to class the trotters and pacers as “hick town” entertainment, but at Goshen and the Hambletonian they got an eyeful and earful of the true merits of the driving sport. Wrapped up in the galloping “gee-gees” on the money tracks, the Gotham scribes were unaware of the amount of wealth tied up in harness racing and the fine type of people engaged in the sport. The Hambletonian changed the opinion of some important writers about the high steppers and wfgglers and as a result the harness game is receiving extra “play" in newspapers all over the land. a a a a a a THERE are a lot ol high class harness horses out at the Indiana state fair this wrek and the daily program of Grand Circuit caliber is well worth anybody's time and money. Horse flesh of speed, style and prominence is to be found in almost every event at the well-kept track and while the Grand Circuit is split this week, with one meeting at Syracuse and the other here, there is plenty of talent to supply botlr, and Indianapolis has its share of the first-grade trotters and pacers. The Hoosier state always has occupied a- top flight position in developing harness horses and in keeping interest at high pitch in the annual st£te fair race spectacles. Go out and watch the spirited equines breeze around the mile course. , They are the elite of their w r orld. a a a a a a MERCER UNIVERSITY—LittIe Mercer—an institution of some 400 students, located in Macon, Ga„ has contracted to battle both the Army and Navy in football on successive Saturdays this fall. That's what you call courage, or perhaps it's just the opposite--going too big. Anyway, in celebrating the centennial anniversary of the school, the Bf'ars, under Coach L. F. Russell, will take on their most ambitious schedule. Aside from the big battles with the nation’s Army and Navyforces. Mercer will be hast to the University of Georgia for the second time in thirty-four years of grid relations with the Bulldogs, during which time the Bears have failed to win a single contest. Last year, Mercer, under Russell, won six games and last two, scoring 177 points to its opponents’ 34. a a a a a a EASTERN papers derline to say finis to the tennis title match that Helen Wills Mooav defaulted to Helen Jacobs. Here’s the latest version: After Mrs. Moody walked off the court Miss Jacobs put her hand on Mrs. Moody s back and asked her to rest before finishing the set. Which, it is said, caused the depased Queen Helen to remark, “No, and please remove your hand." If that’s true, it explains the reason some tennis scribes criticised Mrs. Moody for retiring from a losing match in haste even though they believed her when she explained it was an injury that led her to default. a a a a a a Gar Wood, speedboat king, is superstitious and never starts a race unless his craft contains two tiny teddy bear dolls. Well, that’s better than having a couple of big dolls aboard. They might wrap their arms around his neck and squeal when he puts her in high. O tt tt BUB THE local Perry stadium incident of last year, when a woman fan, admitted free, snatched a foul ball and declined to give it up, has been matched by Sporting News. It was at a Cardinal game on a “ladies’ day." when one woman, admitted free, said to another: “See where Rogers Hornsby has been made manager of the Browns. It’s a shame the Browns don’t have better support. So let’s go out and see them on their next ladies’ day.” n a ft a a a BASEBALL fans of the city and state will get the Babe Ruth all-big league mythical team to discuss on Saturday. The Bambino will be ready with his lineup and batting order on that date. It is repeated here again that no teams will be included in the “match Ruth game" that were not received at The Times by Sept. 1. Midnight of Aug. 31 was the deadline, as announced several times previously. The Times has received some late “entries," but there are no “extra innings” permitted. It would not be fair to the fans who picked their lineups as Ruth requested—not later than midnight of Aug. 31. a a a a a a A1 K Hall, head concession man at Perry Stadium, is prying the caps off of bottles with one hand these days. He got the baseball bug and took a workout, but discovered the ball was not soft like the drinks ba sells. Result: One broken thumb. a a a a a a The Milwaukee Brewers took a day off recently from their A. A. schedule and played the House of David nine and all they got for their efforts were a lot of orders from the fans to “grow a beard." The whisker pastimers compelled the Brewers to go sixteen innings to win.
T hrilling Battles on Tap in National Tennis Play Today
NEW YORK. Sept. 6 —For proof of the class of the 1933 men's national tennis championship, one has only to look at today s third round matches. Rare, indeed, is the tournament which can produce two or three top flight matches before the fourth round, but the one in progress at Forest Hills offers eight, two of which are worthy of anybody's quarter or semi-finals. Topping today's list are engagements between the two American Davis cuppers. Johnny Van Ryn and Wilmer Allison, and the one involving George Lott and Ryosuka Nunio of Japan. Van Ryn and Nunoi are favored to win. Allison holds a much higher national ranking than Van Ryn, who is principally a doubles player, but the Texan has slipped badly.

England's representation is due to be lessened today. Ted Avory meets Ellsworth Vines and is in for a drubbing unless the Californian goes to pieces entirely. Judging by his play Tuesday, the Californian is a good bet for the finals. Two other Englishmen, H. G. N. Lee and Frederick Wilde, oppose each other. Australia stands a fine chance of losing two of its most promising youngsters. Adrian Quist and Don Turnbull. Quist faces Dr. Eugene MacCauliff. Turnbull’s chances against Frank Shields, are very slim. Other high class fights on tap for today are: Frankie Parker vs. Keith Gledhill: Jack Tidball vs. Jack Crawford; Lester Stoefen vs. Dr. David O'Loughlin. and Ellsworth Davenport vs. Vivian McGrath, Australia's youngster.

Second Bargain to End Action With Red Birds Another Tribe ‘Double’ on at Stadium This Evening, at 4 and 8: Tuesday Twin Program Is Divided, Bolen Striking Out Nine in Night Cap. Red Killefer’s Indians and Ray Blades’ Birds split their twilightmoonlight double-header at Perry stadium Tuesday and will tangle up in another bargain program this evening, first tilt at 4 p. m. and the second at 8 o’clock under the lights. The contests this evening will close the series and on Thursday night the Toledo Mud Hens will supply the visiting attraction in a single game. Scores Tuesday were 8 to 2, Columbus, in the opening battle, and 7 to 2. Indianapolis, in the second. Stewart Bolen pitched the winner for the Tribe and struck out nine Birds, three in order in the initial stanza. Bill Lee, lanky right-hander of Columbus, celebrated the announcement of his sale to the Chicago Cubs by scattering the Hoosier hits in the first struggle. Clarence Rowland. Bruin scout, was on hand to watch the big fellow perform. It was Lee’s twenty-first victory of the year against nine defeats. Lefty Bob Logan opposed Lee and was clear out of stride, a shaky start putting him on the skids.
A four-run rally by the visitors in the third stanza ruined Logan and at no time was he able to operate in the style that put the big league scouts on his trail. He was solved for sixteen blows in eight rounds, Bill Thomas pitching the ninth. Blades Smacks Homer Manager Ray Blades led his league leaders to the triumph in the Tuesday lid lifter with two singles and a home run. The circuit drive cleared the left field wall. The Birds tallied one marker in the first, four in the third, one in the sixth and two in the eighth. The Indians made several threats and had eleven runners left on the sacks, but Lee had the necessary skill to get out of the holes. The Tribe chalked up one run in the second and one in the eighth. Stewart Bolen was “on fire" from the beginning of the conflict under the light, and the Birds were tamed. He held the Buckeye sluggers to eight hits while he was striking out nine. The stalwart southpaw issued only two walks and his southpaw curve had the visitors guessing. Ten Hits Off Judd The Indians collected ten safeties off of Ralph Judd, including a triple by Sigafoos and a double by Cooney. The Killeferites scored twice in the third, once in the fourth, twice in the sixth, and put one marker over in both the seventh and eighth. The Columbus pastimers got one runner around in the second and another in the sixth.
