YORK, Sept. 19.—They were just going out to sea as I was leaving the town, and so I didn't get any word on what Endeavour was doing to Rainbow, or just what *as happening in the big yacht race off Newport until later in the day. When the train rolled into New London the porter came up with radio tidings that the British sloop was leading, and some time later at New Haven the porter fetched in word that the British yacht had gone out in front to win for the second straight day. “This is almost as good as seeing the race itself, ’ smiled the gentleman in the next seat, who had had the foresight to order his beverage in quantities before the train entered the arid state of Connecticut. a a a a a a STRANGELY there are a great many people, interested generally in sports, who feel tha* yachting—even the gaudy international shows is something that should be taken in moderation, if at all. These, of course, are people who just don t get a belt out of watching sail boats sail. On the other spinnaker, there are quite a few others who burn candles of veneration at the altar of the sport, in awed, reverential tones of Its mysteries and marvels. These are your pure fanatics for whom the wild waves of the sea carry a private and personal greeting. a a a a a a IFIND that the newspaper fellows who specialize in going down to the sea in portable typewriters can and do work up as much hysteria over their favorite skippers and favorite yachts as any impressionable cub beaming on Babe Ruth or Jack Dempsey for the first time. W'hat is more, the yachting expert is something of an evangelist, and it is never wise to spend too much time in his company lest he persuade you that a man who does not like yachting Is unsocial, heathenish and obscene. This is not true of any other branch of the expert family, although the pony polo scribblers look upon their sport with something approaching religious zeal, and I have a feeling that their esteem for the baseball writer and the boxing writer is not altogether filled with fraternal warmth. a a a a a a EVEN SO. if a man doesn’t strongly feci the urge to get himself a sail boat and go bobbing along in the water I question the social justice of turning him over to the authorities as an undesirable citizen. A man should be privileged to take nis balloon jibs or leave them severely alone. People who spend a lo* of their time in the water unquestionably get keen fun out of seeing two magnificent boats, such as Rainbow and Endeavour. go through their duels. These people know the game. They are familiar mHh its peculiar problems. Vicariously the thrill of the skippers us their thrill, too. It requires high skill to skipper these towering sloops with their enormous saiLs. Men like Harold Vanderbilt. Charles Francis Adams and T. O M. .Sopwith command a certain admiration on the score of sheer ability alone.

FITZSIMMONS, NEWSOM HARD LUCK KINGS
N. Y. Fails to Back Freddy’s Fine Pitching Giants, Reds Divide; Buck Hurls One-Hit Game, Loses. By I cited Pro* NEW YORK, Sept. 19.—Speaking of hard luck pitchers, consider the cases of Freddy Fitzsimmons of the faltering New YorK Giants and Buck Newsom of the St. Louis Browns. Poor Freddy has pitched 31 consecutive innings without getting the support of a single run from his Giant mates. And unlucky Buck stepped out yesterday, pitched a masterly one-hit game while his opponents allowed 10, yet Buck was th lasing pitcher. Fitzsimmons pitched the opener between the Giants and Cincinnati Reds against Benny Frey. He allowed six hits against Frey’s seven, but 'the Reds won, 2-0, after Chick Hafey broke a scoreless tie by i smashing out a homer in the 10th with Jim Bottomley aboard. Ott Poles No. 35 However, the Giants won the nightcap, 4-2, by virtue of Mel Ott’s 35th homer in the fourth and three Giant runs in the sixth. This even break prevented the Giants from gaining ground in the National League pennant race while the run-ner-up Cardinals were idle. The split left the Giants still three and a half games above St. Louis and the New Yorkers must win nine of the 10 games left on their schedule to clinch the pennant if the Cards win their remaining 14 games. - In the Red Sox-Browns game Buck Newsom allowed the Sox only one hit, but the Red Sox emerged from a ten-ininng battle with a 2-1 tiiumph. The Browns gathered ten hits off Wes Ferrell and Rube Walberg. Two walks, an error, an infield cut and a fielders’ choice accounted for one Boston run in the second inning. Strange's single tied the count for St. Louis in the sixth, and Boston won ou* in the teth when Bob Johnson’s single, the only Sox hit of the game, followed two walks. In the National League, wet grounds at Boston caused postponement of the Cardinals-Braves contest. The Cubs and Phillies split a twin bill, Chicago winning the opener, 7-3, with Don Hurst leading the Cubs’ twelve-hit attack, but the Phils took the nightcap, 8-1, when Phil Collis limited the Cubs to five hits. Brooklyn downed the Pirates, 9-4, hammering out seventeen hits off three Pittsburgh pitchers. Rowe Blanks Yankees Detroit stretched its American League lead to seven and a half games over the Yankees by beating New York. 2-0, behind Schoolboy Rowe’s six-hit pitching for his twenty-fourth victory. Hank Greenberg won the game with a homer in the fourth. Cleveland took two games from Washington, 5-4, in the first when Earl Averill’s single in the twelfth drove in the winning run, and 9-6 in the nightcap, when the Indians outhit the Senators. 13 to 8. Connie Mack's Athletics blanked the White Sox, 6-0, behind Bill Dietrich's six-hit flinging, while the A's made twelve safeties off Kennedy and Tietje, including Hayes homer with one aboard as part bf a fiverun rally in the eighth.
Lott Faces Test in Pacific Event Meets Tidball Today: Star Is Upset Victim. By V nit fit Pres* LOS ANGELES, Sept. 19 —George Lott of Chicago, who teams with Lester Stoefen of Los Angeles and is regarded as the world's leading doubles player, faced an acid test as a singles performer today w r hen he met Jack Tidball in the eighth annual Pacific Southwest tennis tournament. Tidball. former national intercollegiate champion, defeated Ellsworth Vines in this tournament last year and many believed he might accomplish the same feat against Lott. Such an accomplishment would be less of an upset, however, than was the defeat of Wilmer Allison. Austin, Tex., favorite, at the hands of Jess Millman, young Southern California ace, yesterday. Stoefen also was pitted against a formidable foe in the personage of Chuck Otis of Pasadena. Another feature match of interest paired Frank Shields, ranking American ace, against Chuck Carr, Los Angeles. Kay Stammers of England and Midge Van Ryn of Philadelphia were matched in what was expected to be the outstanding performance among the women's singles players.

Abe ‘Place-Kicks’ Rascher Over Ropes for Victory Coleman Scores Bull’s-Eye With Toe and Hoosier Heavy Is Injured by Hard Fall. Abe Coleman, 205-pound New York grappler, kicked Andy Rascher, 211 pounds. Cedar Lake, Ind., into submission in one fall last night to capture the feature event of the Hercules A. C. wrestling card at the
armory, mree douis were staged. Rascher was leading in aggressiveness in the fifty minutes the two had wrestled w'hen the Jewish grappler staged his “kangaroo kick” act. Coleman straightened up the former Indiana univeristy football star with a butt. He then lashed out with a short kick that had Rascher further in distress. Then Coleman “placekicked” his opponent high over the ropes. Rascher landed on his head and shoulders and had to be carried to the dressing rooms. The commission doctor ruled he was unable to continue and Coleman won the match by default. Tries to Return It was one of the most decisive falls ever registered at the Armory with Rascher almost completely ous and barely able to stagger. He insisted on returning to the ring, but Matchmaker Lloyd Carter joined the commission physician in overruling him. The semi-windup between Bill Edwards, 205, Dallas, Tex., and Billy Burns, 210, Denver, provided most of the evening's entertainment, with Edwards winning in ten minutes. The Texan clowned his way through the match and gave the fans plenty of laughs. Every time he was on the receiving end of a bit of semi-violence, he'd rise on his toes, flex his shoulder muscles and glower menacingly. Wrestles Like Ram Edw'ards’ neatest trick was to jerk Burns forward by the latter’s moplike hair and ram his shoulder into Burns’ jaw. Not that it makes much difference, but Referee He.ze Clark booted one in this setto. He patted Edwards for a verdict w r hile one of Burns’ shoulders was two or three inches off the mat and had been that way for several seconds. Pat Reilly, 210, Oakland, Cal., and Jim League, 212, Birmingham, went thirty minutes to a draw in the opener to the accompaniment of frenzied yells by the crowd for the former’s scalp.
‘Tiger Crazy’ Michigan Grid Players Torn Between Two Loves.
By 1 imea Special ANN ARBOR, Mich., Sept. 19. There’s no one outside of Detroit's immediate baseball family who is more of a Tiger well-wisher than Harry Kipke, University of Michigan football coach. But Kipke is finding it a bit tough —because he is having to wean a good share of his own Ferry field family away from the 3 o'clock radio sessions. Quite a few of the grid boys seem to hang back from the start of football practice to linger near the equipment room where the equipment manager keeps his radio open. And when they are out on the field they keep one ear cocked for the Tiger rallies while they listen to grid signals with the other. Detroit is heading toward a bunting in the national summer sport, but after all Kipke’s trying to get a bunch of boys greedy to defend a football title in the big fall pastime. RIDDLE.

Yacht Series Postponed as Breeze Fails Endeavour and Rainbow Held Idle: President Is Disappointed. By f vilrit Prc* ABOARD U. S C. G. C. ARGO, off NEWPORT. R 1., Sept 19—Ths third heat of the America's cup scries between Harold S. Vanderbilt’s American defender. Rainbow, and the dark-hulled British challenger, Endeavour, was called off today, due to an absolute failure of wind. Postponement was delayed almost until the last moment before the race automatically would have been called off, because President Roosevelt, aboard Vincent Aster's yacht, Nourmahal, had stayed over for a last view of the races before leaving for Poughkeepsie, N. Y. BY SIDNEY B. WHITPLE United Press Staff Correspondent NEWPORT, R. 1., Sept. 19. With two victories tucked away beneath her waterline, the Endeavour, challenger for the America's cup wa3 ready to go out today to fight Harold S. Vanderbilt's Rainbow in tho third contest for the America's cup. Two more victories mean that the old silver mug will go back to England for the first time since it was brought over here by the schooner America eighty-three years ago. Vanderbilt had no excuse to offer for the two defeats handed his Rainbow. He has the better crew, he has his choice of five different suits of sails offered to him from Yankee, Weetamoe and other contestants for the defending of the cup. He has expert navigation in waters thdt are as familiar to him as his own bathtub, but he lacks what seems to be the greatest essential, the fastest yacht. Despite the obvious inexperience of Sopwith's amateur crew and the polished efficiency of Vanderbilt's well paid seamen, what few bungles have been made have not cost the challenger more than 90 seconds of time in all to ten hours of racing. Betting today veered sharpiy toward the British side as a result of the two wholly unexpected victories. President Praises Seamen By UnitrH Ptcaa NEWPORT, R. 1.. Sept. 19.—President Roosevelt witnessed the second victory of the British yacht Endeavor over the Rainbow in the America's cup series yesterday with satisfaction over the seamanship exhibited by both boats. ‘‘Never have I seen two closer or better sailed races in any cup series,” the President remarked.
