SARATOGA MEETING
IS BEST IN YEARS
Spa Has Not Had a More In
teresting Program Since 1901,
When Racing Was Revived.
Fifteen years ago, in U01. the lato 'Will
iam C. Whitney revived racing at Sara
toga. It Is doubtful whether slnco that
year there has been more interest In a
meeting at tho Spa than the one that
started on Monday.
According to tho secretary of tho Sara
toga Racing Association, demands for
clubhouse reservations at the Springs
rniirsn wprn unnrccedented. Kvcry box
was disposed of, and as many again coul 1
hae been sold had they been available.
There arc no longer any stable accom
modations to bo had at tho track Every
stall Is either occupied by a thorough
bred or reserved for a lata comer still
racing alsewhcro. Many horses are
quartered outside tho grounds.
Tho hotel proprietors have reported an
unusual demand for rooms Virtually
every cottage is taken. There are moro
houses taking boarders than In any sea
son slnco 1907
Tli.r. nrn mnnv reasons why this
should bo one of the most unusual aeftv
sons In tho history of Saratoga, ui course,
the rovlval of racing has contributed most
to tho return of prosperity at the Spa.
but at least ono other factor has aided
and abetted tha rejuvenation.
The war raging abroad has Kept a num
ber of persons -who usually spend their
summers in Europe at home. Many of
these will spend August at Saratoga.
Twenty-nine stakes are carded for de
cision during the days of racing. Thero
will hardly be a day that one or more
features will not adorn tho program.
Saratoga will be the meeting ground
of the stars of tho East and West In
tho big handicaps Roamer, Stromboli,
Borrow, Ilarmonicon, Tartar and other
Rant thoroughbreds will clash with

PHILLIES OPEN SERIES
IN PIRATE TOWN
Alexander Slated to Hurl
Against George McQuil
lan in Opening Battle.
PITTSDURQII. Aug. S.-The Phillies
open a four-gamo series with a single
game here today. The double-header will
be played on Saturday Instead of Fri
day, nfl had been announced before. The
Pirates still believe that they have an
excellent chance for the penmnt and
hope to take three out of four from the
rhlls.
Alexander tbe Great will pitch for the
Fhllllen tnday, and If he Is In his usual
form the Pirates will have to be lucky
to win, as they have beaten the big Ne
brnskan but once In two years. Qeorgi
McQuillan Is slated to face the Phillies,
although It Is really Adamo turn to
pitch.
Adams has had little success against
the Phillies In recent years, while Mc
Quillan usually holds the Phillies to a
low score If McQuillan has a good day
and Alexander Is given the poor sup
port he has received In the West to date,
the Pirates havo a fine chance for a vic
tory. The Phillies were bitterly disappointed
at the postponement of yesterday's double-header
In Chicago. Moran's men wore
confident that they would have Jolted
the Cubs twice had the weather hot In
terfered. The postponement makes It necessary
for the Phllllee: to play five games In
three days on their last visit to Chicago.
Unless the pitching staff Is going might
ily good at that time this series may
wreck the Phillies' pennant hopes If they
are still at the top of the race.

LOW-WEIGHT SYSTEM
HURTS RACING GAME
Good Jockeys Are Barred Be
cause of Scale in Vogue at
This Time.
Old-timers on -the turf are prone to
scoff at the ability of the present
crop of Jockeys In this country, They
wall loud and long and sigh the deep
est of sighs for the days of Slmms,
Garrison, Spencer, Sloan and the rest,
who rode In the vanished years fond
ly termed "the good old days," writes
James D. Slnnot, a New York critic
As a rule there Is little sympathy
with those who continually harp on
tho superiority of athletes of tho past
over those of the present. Usually
there Is no real basts for their conten
tion that participants In sport have grown
leas skilful with the lapse of years.
However, when It cornea to tho Jockey
question the old-timer Is right The pres
ent riders do not compare with those of
ten years ago. .They never will regain
their prestige, either, as long as the
Jockey Club persists In racing at the
ridiculously low scale of weight now in
vogue.
Tho war has driven Willie Dugan to
this country, aa It did his brother Eddie.
But Willie Is not able to ride here.
He is no longer a youngster. Ho can
not do 110 pounds and under, and could
not get enough mounts over that weight
under the present syseem to hold his
form.
Shaw Is a greater Jockey than Dugan
ever was or will be. In all the history
of the turf there are not a half dozen
riders who can be rated beyond him
Shaw is here, ready to ride, but finds
he Is too heavy. He has been riding
for yenrs In Germany. He, too, Is out
of emploj ment because of the war.
Then there Is Vincent Powers, Just a
few years ago he was the ranking
Jockey of the country on the flat. Now
he hns to ride over thi Jumps, because
he can't do better than 114 pounds.
Powers tried to train down this spring
and ride on the flat again. He found tha
effort too much for him.
Here are three Instances, not of ordi
nary Jockeys, but great riders, whose
services would be available under a sane
scale. To the Hat might bo added Jos
Notter, who, although he can make 114
pounds, is able to ride only In the big
stakes, and Eddie Dugan. who, at 113
pounds, Ii on the ground most of the
time
Thero is a lot of talk about the Jockey
Club stewards being alarmed over tha
decline of the breed of horses In this
country. We hove been in receipt of at
least half a dozen Interviews with prom
inent hortemen on this subject There
have been teardrops In evory line of them
ovar the lamentable situation.
