artificial hasardi on the hole.
The Wendell family at St. David's has
shown all kinds of scoring ability. Iter,
man Wendell, In the qualifying round of
the tournament this week, turned In n
78, and no one came anywhere In reach
of this until his son "Ted" turned In a
neat 7T. The latter's card Included three
shots out of bounds.
The course this year has been consid
erably changed nnd "Ted" holds the rec
ord for It with a 75. Ills father has had
a chance for a 75 or better In more than
ons club match, but has fell down on a
last-hole putt.
The latter brought glory to his name
when he became the only one to make
the 9th hole In 2. Ills drive was not so
good, but he knocked out a 215 mid-Iron
shot which rolled up to the pin nnd slid
In.
The last act of the tltanlo struggle for
possession of the umbrella will be staged
this afternoon and the beaten victor will
nave thoroughly earned his nward.
Many envious eyes were cast at tho
"bumbershoot" during tho hard rains
Which have broken over tho play off and
on. At one time, among those In the
fifth 16, It was almost decided to toss up
for It nnd have the dreadful suspense
over with. Desplto tho numerous prlies,
the commlttoo now realizes that there
Is bound to bo hard feetlng.
The musings of a black, black cat, long
and rangy, have been Variously Inter
preted by tho players in tho tournament
at St. David's, who ftave noticed It wan
dering here and there on the links.
One player loudly demanded Its life
when It camo and sat licking Its ribs on
tho edgo of the green just beforo ho
missed a micro-putt.
Another player tied a string around Its
neck and tried to drag It around with him
for good luck after It had followed Wm
down the 11th, where he got a four after
three real odd shots. It was a bird.
"Cats are good when you want to get
a bird," ho said. But tho cat broko away
and ran to hlda behind another bunker.
v
P. S. nicking', of Aronlmlnk, wns
thought to have an excellent chance to
win tho tournament, when he turned the
course In a pretty 73 the day before It
started. Ho was playing In great shape,
but In t'ne qualifying round he could not
keep hi" hall In the course, nnd his 87 only
got him In the second 1G,
All the changes In the course were de
signed to penalize the players who could
not keep their ball straight, so t'nat the
golfer who shoots his ball on a line finds
very little difficulty.
Across tho water whero "ye merrlo
gamo 'o goff" came from, there seem to
bo a few enthusiasts who linng up what
might bo called "real" scores Wo don't
know Just how low It Is possible to go
In the way of scoring, but It seems that
the following must be somewhere near
the bottom.
Playing at Molesly Hurst last woek with
W O. Morrison, ex-captaln of the club,
Albert Seymour, tho professional, didn't
miss so very many shots and only counted
up 52 at the "home nln, This beat his old
record of 61 for tho course, and we sup
pose he was duly pleased, though no
doubt ho Immediately began to think of
all the "Us" pnd reasons why ha should
havo "had a' better score, and then decided
to go out tho next sunny day and mako a
real score.
If any one has the morbid curiosity to
look at his card, here It Is;

MACKMEN AND TIGERS
OPEN SERIES IN DETROIT
Crowe 11 Probable Pitching
Choice, With Covaleakie for
Jennings' Men, in Opener.
DETROIT, July 17. The Athletics and
Tigers open their third series of the sea
son this afternoon. The Mackmcn aro
going better than they were when they
last appeared In Detroit and are par
ticularly anxious to defeat Jennings' crew
because of the bad feellne that now ex
ists between Mack and Jennings as the
result of several statements made1 by the
Tiger boss recently.
Jennings last winter tipped tho country
off to the fact that waivers had been
naked on Bender, Plank and Coombd,
This not only spoiled any plan Mack may
havo had to trade them, but It also per
mitted the Federal League to step In and
capture Bender and Plank, Bocently
Jennings made a similar break and then
Intimated that Bchsng was to become a
member of the Tigers, Ilumors of this
sort stir up discontent in, taii-eno nra.
Either Crowell or Buah will gat the
twirling assignment for today with
chances favoring the former. Crcwell
was batted out of tho box by tho White
Sox. but It was the nrat poor gane
pitched by the collegian and Mack ex
pects him to surprise tha slugging Tigers.
Detroit has not played for three days
and therefore Jennings has almost his
entire staff available for use today, but
chances favor Covalesklo to atart the
series, with CJeorgo Dauss as second
choice,

The Phillies are now leading the Cubs
by a full game, thanks to tho victory
of the Giants yesterday, and Manager
Moran hopes to Increase this lead during
the present series If Alexandor gots

to extend himself too much It Is likely
that he will go back against the Cuba
In the final game of tho series,
Tho Cubs have been skidding badly In
the East, and Mnnager Ilreanahan IS not
certain whom ho will send against the

Humphreys against Alexander. This pair
have had many stirring pitchers' battles
In the past nnd today's game Is likely
to bs another one.
Humphreys has always been particu
larly effeotlve against the Phillies, and
Bresnahan may also send him back In
the final game, as Lavender and Cheney
havo not been going well lately. Tha

PHILLIES AND DODGERS PICKED
AS FAVORITES IN LEAGUE RACE
By GRANTLAND RICE
Taking another alant at thla hectlo Na
tional Leaguo race, the time seems to be
about ripe nealn for another serious dis
cussion. Not that any such discussion
will get anywhere In particular, but this
la, of course, a minor defect to any es
tablished debate,
The Epic nace
The National League has drawn but two
flag racea In recent seasons that even
approached this present scramblo In close
ness or general Interest,
The first was In J80. when New York,
Chicago and Pittsburgh raced neck and
neck to the wire, But there ware only
three clubs mlxd up In that acalp-llftlng
episode.
The aecond was In 1911. when New York,
Philadelphia, Chicago, Plttiburg and St.
Louis were pounding along well bunched
until around mld-Auguat. But even then
there were only nvo clubs involved, To
day tha entire leaguo to .till in the hunt.
Philadelphia, Chicago, Brooklyn, St. LouU
and Pittsburgh are moving along under
a handkerchief, Jammed together W th
iardlnle compactness. Ann back of these
three Ww Tot. Cincinnati and Hotton
are by no means hopelessly out of ltt
though floundering a bit at odd apells.
The Present Favorite
There is no particular use In Jaunchln
any prophecy u to which club will ftnally
JZ for there Isn't a Woke upon the
.ia who knows, or who has any
.7ne p tohoff.r on th, .Mbj.ot. Before

wVrthot atronnslderatlon-alubs that

QUESTION OF CYLINDERS
NOW DISTURBING MOTORISTS
Malty Buyers Puzzled Over Multiplicity of Fours, Sixes, Eights
and Twelves Gar's Performance Is the Real Test to
Meet Owner's Requirements. ,
tip to tho present nearly all carmakers
have aimed at one goal, namely making
cars with the same number of cylinders,
Irrespective of tho size of the car and the
total piston displacement of the motor,
says Automobile. First, the four set the
pace, and all small ears, one by one,
dropped (he single and two-cylinder de
sign and got Into the four-cylinder ranks.
Later, when the six established Itself,
the majority of four-cylinder makers of
small cars started changing from four to
tixt believing that they could not sell
tho Nur, no matter how small It was.
Thev contended that the purchaser of tho
smallest car wanted a six, because that
was what tho wealthy purchaser had.
Today we aro witnessing a transition
from sixes to eights and twelves, and al
ready thero are evidences that a few
small cars are going to chnngo to mora
cylinders. This constant chango suggests
the possible time when makors will not
talk so loudly on tho number of cylinders,
but when cars will bo sold on perform
ance, nnd It Is really on performance that
Borne of tho new cars with more cylinders
nre bolng sold. The buyer wants per
formance, and the sooner he erases to
buy flololy on tha number of cylinders
tho better,
What difference should It make to tho
huysr whether he has four, six, eight or
twelve, providing It gives the beat maxi
mum performance, providing It gives de
sired acceleration, providing It gives high
speed performances with tho great
est ease nnd absenco of vibration, nnd
providing tho maintenance of tho car Is
at tho lowest mark? Thcao aro tho Im
portant considerations Two engineers
may approach these subjects from differ
ent viewpoints, apd the only crltorlon of
their success should bo tho performance
of the machine and not tho slmplo ques
tion as to whether It has four, six, eight
or twelvo cylinders.
As still further evidence of the revival
TABER'S RECORD-BREAKING FEAT
STAMPS HIM AS
Former Brown University Runner Goes Distance at Harvard in
Ncxo World's Time of 4:12 3-5 Lowers Mark of 4:12
That Has Stood Since 1S86.
Spectators at tho specially stapcTl meet
huld at Harvard University, Cambridge,
Mass, yesterday witnessed two wonder
ful athletic feats, When Norman Taber,
tho former Brown University mller, now
representing the Boston A, A wns paced
through tho mile for a new world's rec
ord (professional or otherwise) of 4 min
utes 12 3-5 seconds ho performed what
hundreds of mcrt before him had vainly
tried for; and W. H. Meanlx, of Boston,
created a now world's mark of 51 3-5 sec
onds for the 4t0-yard hurdles.
On AugUBt 23, 1885. at Little Bridge,
London. Eng W. O. George In a match
rneo established a world's mark of 4:12.
That was 23 years ago. nnd until yestor
day but one man-aslda from Tabcr-ever
approached It. That was when John raul
Jones, of Cornell, May 31, 1913. at the
Harvard Stadium, where yesterdays
great race was run, made an amateur
mark of 4-112-5
Somo athletic, critics do not believe
Tabor's" mark' should be cftmBared with

tionandrtherace was(run by the athletes
with nerves -on edge as well as muscle.
Yesterday Tabw went to the mark with
his mlml -free, savs upon ona subject
"Break'the mils rpcord." In Jones roco
tho fnmoua mller had to worry about
defeat, how his race was to be run
against strong opponents and hundreds ot
other littles things calculated to hinder
the athlete.
Yesterday's sensational run was made
with mind free and easy, and while It is
not the Intention to belittle Taber's per
formance, in all fairness to Jones It rnust
be granted that Taber's wonderful feat
was mada under more favorable condi
tions Ask any athlete the difference be
tween an actual contest with aturdy pp
ponents In the running and a race against
time, and they will all agree- that, tho
latter effort is thoroughly enjoyable by
comparison. , -
Taber has eneraved his name on- tne
shield of tame, to last as long as port
Is popular on thla earth, and t should
be so. It Is n fairly safe, prediction, it he
runs In anything lUta his present form at
the national championships at flan Fran
tied. And since tha first of July Brook
lyn has been playing the best ball In the
league, with Philadelphia next. On ave
rage form those two clubs Bhould havo
tha beat pf It. The only thing that com
plicates the dope here Is that both Brook
lyn and Philadelphia belong to tho spe
cies which In tha nat over many cam
paigns have Insisted upon detonating with
a crash at critical points of the race.
But there Is undoubtedly a far better
spirit In these two clubs this season tho,n
either has ever known for a dozen years.
There is more team spirit-greater ambl.
tion finer all-around morale,
