slid In just ahead for the medal at the lost

him. They played nine holes and Darnes
led by two atrokes to the eighth. He dropped
one on the eighth with a four to a three.
Hutchinson put his drive on the edge of a
bunker and then made a beautiful approach
to the ninth to within 15 feet of the pin.
Barnes tried to get Inside the other's ball
on the green and went In the creek. He
could not lift, so played from the water.
It was a splendid shot he made, only 12
feet from the pin. Hutchinson sank his
three and Barnes missed his four.

did not hesitate to say so. He believes In

did not do much work as It was too hot
Bert Bell tried to sell him his old Bulck

see whether It would be 100 or J200. Ilert
Is still thinking It over. Bell also won 110
from Lon Jourdet on a golfing bet. Lon
bet him he couldn't drive a ball 250 yards
on the green, but Bert did It,- the first
time It has ever been done by any one,
so he Is quite a hero around the country
club.
We had a long tnlk'from Kolwell. He
gave us a long list ot football axioms
which are to gotern the play of the Penn
varsity this fall. The fellows took them
to heart and tried their best, to put them
Into execution.
Mr. Dummy made his debut and was
given a royal reception. He was In poor
health and about BO pounds under weight
and soon showed signs ot the rough treat
ment. We hope to have a new one soon.
We lined up a little differently yesterday
when ve ran through signals. Thomas was
shifted to right end and Wlrkman put In
at guard. The backfleld was composed of
Bell. Loucksltoss and Eble. ltble has been
shitted from center to the bnckneld and
seems to bo more at home there. Also
Wray played center on the second team.
He seems to be the best bet for a sub

smoothness yesterday, our passes were
going better and our work generally shows
a great Improvement,

CABMAN NEAR RECORD IN
WINNING PI.NAL PACE
RACEOF CYCLING SEASON
By KODEUT W. MAXWELL
CLAnUNCH CAIMAN' put the finishing
touches on the end of n perfect season
at Point Breese Motordromo last night,
when he annexed the flfty-mlle race from
Walthour and Wiley without half trying.
He outclassed the
field, tore around
the track with
reckless abandon
and almost broke
the world's record
for the distance.
His time was 1
hour 1 minute 10
seconds. The best
lime for fifty miles
was made by
Harry Caldwell
when he did 5
minutes 69 sec
onds at Charles
lllver Tark, Bos
ton, In 1.03. Had
Carman been
pushed he would
have beaten the
record by several
nOBEtlT W. UAXWKUi seconds.
It was the closing night of the 1916 sen
son, and although transportation facilities
were very poor n large crowd was present.
Vincent Madonna, the ttallan who has been
doing wonderful work In Boston, was sched
uled to appear, but ho missed his train and
failed to show up. Madonna was the mag
net that drew most of the crowd, and there
were howls of disappointment when Bobby
Calhoun announced his absence.
With the Italian out of It. It was pre
dicted that Carman would have an easy
time of It, nnd the prediction cume true.
Walthour nnd Wiley offered little compe
tition. They trailed along In the rear nnd
after the twentieth mile were hopelessly out
of the race. Carman had taken such a lead
that It wan Impossible to catch him. Wiley
was oft form and made a miserable showing,
but Walthour tried hard all of the (line and
mnnaged to finish second a few laps behind
' The race 'itself was nothing tn be excited
about. Only three riders faced the starter,
and when the pistol cracked Walthour was
off 'In front, with Carman second. Hobby

Carman. . , ,
held the lead for three miles, when Carman
passed him. In the meantime Wiley seemed
to be almost standing still, and at the tenth
mile Clarence passed him.
Then the Syracuse boy had difficulty with
his pacemaker and Insisted on making a
change. This wai done, but Wiley lost two
precious laps.
Carman Increased his lead and at the
end of the fifteenth he lapped Walthour for
the first time. He was going nt a good
clip nnd teemed to ride well behind Morln.
who took Jimmy Hunter's place. Hunter
was unable to appear because of the death
of his mother.
When the twenty-fifth mile came around.
Carman was leading Walthour by three
laps, or one mile, with Wiley two mllea
behind. Then It was seen that Carman had
things hrj own way and the only thing
that Interested tho spectators was whether
or not he would break the record. The
American champion tried hard, but he made
his own pace and missed by a close margin.
Walthour had trouble In the thirty-fifth
mile when he had a puncture, but his lead
oer Wiley was so great that he changed
wheels and picked up his pacemaker again
before George was even close.
At the end of the race Carman was pre
sented with a handnome sliver loving cup,
donated by David N'etter, and Morln, his
pacemaker, also received one.
