A flne recovery from a pit by Perry at the bhort fifth availed nothing, as his op. ,,0ThnetsTaunVisland3'champion then stood i up but he lost the 557-yard sixth, getting "nto the rough, n the other hand.

With tho Brook lyn Handlcnp ns tho feature, tho Qilcons County Jockey Club will open Itn summer meeting at tho Aqueduct course thla after noon. Fifteen days of racing will bo held during the meeting. Tho Brooklyn Handicap ban furnished many sencntlonat contests since Its incep tion in 1S87, when it was won by Dry Monopolc, and thero is every reason to be lieve that today's cyont will equal. If not surpass, many that have been held In the past. AVIth thoroughbreds of tho type of Hoatner, Friar Hock, Shortgrass, Sand marsh and others, tho event ls sure to re sult In a contest of both speed nnd courage. That Roamer la ready Is shown by his trials at Aqueduct on Thurnday, when ho worked In 1:53. Shortgrass Ih trained to tho hour nnd will be fnvored by many who saw his splendid effort at tho close of tho Long Hcnch Handicap on "Wednesday, when ho Just failed to ovcrtnko Ttoly. Sandmarsh must pick up n five-pound penalty for win ning since tho publication of the Brooklyn wclghta, but the way he ran In tho 1'au monnlc nnd Kxcclslor Handicaps Indicate to many thnt, even with the ndded Impost, his chances today aro exccllont. Since he Is n horso that takes tho track, there should bo a merry duel when he and Boamor sprint for the lead. Such tactics will favor Friar Hock and Shortgrass. both of whom want n fast pace, and It la posslblo that both tho carrier of topwolght nnd tho son of Sandrlngham may bo beaten by the first pair. Borrow nnd Pennnnt, winner of tho 1913 Futurity, will bear the Whitney colon. Both aro stnrtlng In this part of tho country for the first time. nnd. according to Trainer James Bowe, nrc ln tho best of condition. While thero nro D7 cllglblcs, there Is no doubt that at least ten will faco tho starter. Another fenturo of tho opening at Aque duct will be the 26th running of the Hud son Stake, an event for 2-year-olds, which has a cash prizo of $2,100. Thla race Is over a flvc-furlong course, and hns been won by somo of tho most prominent youngsters In this division, Last year James Butler's Paddy Whack annexed the Make. August Belmont's Trap Rock also has the event to his credit. Slnco thero Is a flne timber courso at Aqueduct, steeplechaslng will be resumed, and tho second raco on tho program Is a selling affair for jumpera. Runs Scored This Week by Major League Clubs ..

Tho default was forcod when the seta stood two all, through n strnlped ligament which has bothored Tilden since tho match yesterday with Craig BIddle. The pnln bc camo so acute during tho fourth set that In tho last two gnmes Tilden occupied the position of backstop for his opponent's placements, Armstrong.

A trip to the club house and an attempt to get Tilden In con dition was made. Tho attempt was un successful, however; after three points had been played in the first ganio the Cynwyd man was forced to give up the light, as ho was almost unable to stand without support, much less play tennis. Albert Hosklns. tho umpire, then awarded the match to Arm strong. It waB a disastrous ending to a vory brilliant match.

Somewhere the sun Is ahlnlng, pome whero the people shout, but not In the sca shore cities, for tho mighty Wood is out. Golf Wizard for n day, If. Wellington Wood, southpaw cyclone of tho salty sanil" nf Atlantic City, tore up tho going In thf medal round of tho tourney nt Wilmington which ends today. He dii22led tho gallery and ho petrified tho entrants when ho burst In tho lead ahead of Ned Sawyer, conqueror of "Chick" Evntia, famous fonnor flnnllrt In the national and cx-Wcstcrn champtoti, ahead of Dougla.i Corkran, a favorlloj Franklin Dyer nnd a Hock of other golf experts. First, ho handed In n card of 79 nnd then flabbergasted nil tho gathering by coming back for an afternoon round of 78. Hit feat wns all tho more romnrkablo in that he played with a golfer who turned tho courso In both rounds nt 00-odd. Tho Wil mington courso would stem to present aH many difficulties, if not moro, to n left, handed golfer ns a right-hander, hut the Jersey Juggernaut never faltered. Ho said ho played tho best golf of his career. And hundreds of fans in tho mosquito State, from which plays II. Wellington Wood, had hope. For the portsldo phenom plays like an eagle set free when ho Is on his game, heel nnd toe, "Wo havo seen him in the ccstacles of a "perfect day." A drlvo ho mado at North Hllla was among the longest wo have seen. The Sun and Then the Storm Tho pet saying of Daddy Dope for yean and years has been that a good golf day followed by a bad ono. It worked with a vengeanco ngalnst II. Wellington Wood. His decline and fall was crashter than that of Rome. Ho was beaten In tho first tee-oft by youthful Norman Maxwell, Aronlmlnk, to the tunc of 7 and S. He wan then ouBtcd by a wide score in tho first round of the beaten eights by W. W. Turner, Spring haven, who wns badly beaten ln the morn ing. Tho whole experience of the Jersey crack ln tho tourney Is ono of tho most remark able of tho season's play. Such an Incident Is one of tho many things that make golf the wonderful game It ls. Ono day a golfer plays tho game of his life, ond the next lie can pcarccly Beo the ball. Wood Is likely to pull a surprise In tho Philadelphia championship next week, as ho Is going at a swifter paco than last year. He Is strong with his wood nnd accurate with his Irons. Whistles Swan Song Tho drawing In match play worked out perfectly at Wilmington. Corkran nnd Saw yer were headed for ench other from tho start. If nothing went wrong, and the gal lery hns been waiting for tho clash. Saw yer went to tho semifinals when ho ousted C. C. Hlghloy, tho Princeton star, after n rather dlltlcult mntch. Both players had trouhlo In getting going, and It wns rather a spasmodic affair. Hlghley took his defeat In tho most cheerful manner. In the dying moments of the match ho took to whistling a few strains of tho "Egyptian Death JIarch," with bars of other dlrgea thrown in. Ho took the most pleasure In whistling Just after a Bhot that didn't spin Just ns he had planned. After ho had the whlstlo off his mind ho usually made a good shot Sawyer made his first good putt on the 12th when he Bank a lengthy one for n bird 3. Up to that time he had used his two putts on every grocn, and ofttlmes used up throe. Ho missed sevornl that didn't look very hard, and reminded ono strongly of hl.i greatest rival In golf, "Chick" Evans. Sawyer Is not so long with his wood, but can depend almost as much as Evans on his Irons. Ho squared the match at tho fourth when ho laid an Iron right up to tho fing, after Hlghloy had fallen down on a slmllnr shot. Sawyer rather enjoyed tho match after a bit, and when he wns 3 up nt the llth, tried to give tho gallery a run for Its patience. He lay behind a neck of the woods on his drive and tried ti 100-yard pitch over the lofty trees to land tho green. Tho ball started. It may be at sea by this time, or wher ever the little brook carried it that flows betwixt the trees. The ball was lost and Sawyer lost a holo. He gouged his ball out of a trap on the next hole for n half when It looked as though Hlghley hod the hole on lea and would only bo ono down.
