PIMLICO PLOTS BIG FALL RACE JOHNSTOWN, CHALLEDON, KAYAK
HE Horses of the Year—Johnstown, Challedon and Kayak II—may be brought together in the renewal of the Pimlico Special this fall . . . to appease the appetite of pony fans for race track extravaganzas. At any rate, Alfred G. Vanderbilt contemplates staging a classic similar to the Seabiscuit-War Admiral Pimlico feature last year and it is his intent to bring the best in competition to the Maryland strip for the 1939 Special. Feelers sent to owners indicate the track hopes to line up a crack field at heavy cost even without the Big Three, but naturally only the top flighters are wanted . . . and Johnstown, Challedon and Kayak II lead the pack and possess the crowd appeal. The Special is to be held during the fall meeting in November. . ... The purse last year was $25,000.

United States Opens on great driving. Nelson won the Open this year because he was batting the ball beautifully off tees. 1 drove well at Pomonok. «..5 I won.” " But those who followed the P. G.

Giants See the Futility of It All And Start Talking About Next Year
By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Aug. 5—The first definite sign that a ball team has given up hope of the pennant is when the officials start talking about next year. So count the New York Giants out of the 1939 National League Pennant race. Horace Stoneham and Bill Terry
ays s|already have started talking about
1940. That puts the Giants in the same class with the Dodgers, who started dealing in 1940 futures a few days earlier. When the Giants ‘righted themselves and ran off four straight in the West, including two.in a row from the Reds, a few of the diehards thought the Terrymen might have a shot at a miracle if Cincinnati really got panicky and went haywire. But it’s all' over now as
.| far as the Giants are concerned.
Stoneham, who flew West to join the Giants, is discussing Joe Medwick of the Cardinals in a cautious, guatded way as a possibility for the Pol unds in i The Giants him, but when
for Medwick, if and when the Cards’ star is placed on the market, he is talking about outbidding Phil Wrigley, Cubs’ millionaire owner. On the basis of their past performances
in spending cash, the Giants won't get a second callover in bidding for a high-priced player. 2 Pittsoargn further discouraged the Giants’ idea of getting back in the pennant scramble yesterday by winning an: 11-inning game, 3-2. Fern Balls single drove in the winning Claude Passeau outdueled Lou Fette to give the Cubs a 1-0 victory over the Bees.

Ore of the Dodger blows was a ninth-inning home run by Dolph Camilli. The Reds touched Hugh Casey and Red Evans for 11 safeties. 2 The Yanks spotted Cleveland a 3-1 lead and beat them 5-4, with Marius Russo doing a great ‘job of relief work. He allowed only one hit in four framés after relieving Oral Hildebrand. All Cleveland runs resulted from homers by Trosky, Hale and Heath.

Mr. Collins has been the oat for this event, and his plans should assure a large gallery. Many will want to see Mr. Kowal and Mr. Rogers, fihalists in the State, Amateur. Quite a few others believe that John David, Indiana Inter collegiate champion from Hillcrest, has a' chance of matching drives with Thomson in the long fusing contest. : For the serious students of the game, the appearance of omson and Metz, two leading to professionals, offers an opportunity te study two distinct styles of play. Thomson is the bludgeon t; of player who cracks out rrific drives, while Metz has the rapier touch, the smooth finesse around the greens. Metz had rounds of 68, 66, 68, 68, over a par 72 course to win the St. Paul Open with a record breaking total of 270 strokes, 18 under par. This triumph established him more firmly than ever as one of the greatest short iron players in the business. He attributes his own skill with these clubs to bremindous wrist action.
