race meeting yesterday over a heavy
track at the enter street plant.
A card of seven speed events, rang
from a five furlong spring to a race
of one mile and one-sixteenth graced
the afternoon's program, and in every
rare the crowd, which was one of
the largest of the meeting, was
treated to an exciting f;n:sh.
The track was heavy from recent
rains, but inspite of the cond tlon of
the oval, fairly good time was hung
up after each race. Wilth ol' Sol out
from his hiding place behind the
clouds, the track should he in pretty
good shape for the thoroughbred
hoofs this afternoon when another
good program of events will be staged
for the benefit of the turf-loving
public.
Of the seven races yesterday, the
fifth, a five and furlong affair with
such oat-destroyers as Carlos Enrique,
I’.lack Monkey and O. Henry entered,
might well be termed the feature
spring of the day.
A field of nine thoroughbreds
paraded past the grandstand for this
event and among them was the win
ner Carlos Enr.que, 3-yearold son
of Seth May Day, .and owned by the
Denver stable. Jockey Johnny Sin

staged here in three days. The Izzies
won the opener four to one at the ex
pense of George Boehler and took the
second 4 to 2.
While Hovllk had a cieor erge on
Boehler In the opener, better fielding
and some read work on The sacks
would have won the second for Speece
who pitched some nice ball. The
Burchmen played a little town hall
In the very first Inning and gave
Wichita the two runs which proved to
be the winning counters.
In that Inning Smith walker for a
starter, Speece threw to first trying
to catch Smith napping and Smith
raced to third. Then Butler hit an
easy fly back of short which Wetzel
camped under and drapped. Smith
scoring and Butler reaching second.
Griffins hit thru Koency scored anoth
er run.
The other Wichita runs were earned
one coming In the third and one in the
sixth on bunched hits. The game had i
been shortened to seven innings by
previous agreement and this also
worked against Speece as his mates
were starting to hit Hovllk.
Omaha I.oses (liance.
Omaha had a fine chance to even
things up :n the fourth, but scored
only once Thompson started with s
| double, with none out He tried to
! reach third, however, on a short
passed ball which rolled by three feet
from McMullen, tind was thrown out.
IConey then grounded to Beck, but
Wilcox singled to right and Cullop
doubled to <eft, scoring Wilcox with
one run wnen two should have been
over and only one out. Wetzel lined
to Conlan ror the third out.
The Omanas started their last ral
lv In the seventh, when Culiop dou
bled and scored #n Wetzels single
With a good opening for more runs.
Hale. Speece and Kerr failed to hit
and the game was -over.
We# Griffin won the first gamo
for Wichita, bright end early, when
he hit one over right field with a
man on base in the first inning. Two
runs were enough for Hovllk, al
though the locals later added two
more on clean hitting. Wilcox hit
a home run over the right field fence
In the sev»nth. scoring the only run
of the game for Omaha. The ball
whs Just a foot Inside the foul line. !
With none on, however, the blow j
failed to unsettle Hovllk, who pitched
brilliant ball the rest of the game.

Sweetser Wins
Max Marston Eliminates Hope
of Boston—Gardner Off
His Game and Loses
8 and 7.
By Associated Pres.
Chicago, Sept. 21.—Jess Hweetaer of
New York got a step nearer the goal
today in his defense of the amateur
golf championship by defeating Bob
Gardner of Chicago, twice holder of
the title. 8 and 7. in the semi finals.
The champion played one stroke bet
ter than perfect golf in the morning
round and was even with par for the
11 holes played in the second round,
while Gardner, slipping at times with
various clubs, took 81 for the f.rst
round and was two over par when be
lost at the 29th hole.
Seldom was the champion poorer
from the tee than Gardner and he
was much more deadly with his irons
and his putter. The former cham
pion flubbed two drives, shanked two
mashles and missed one three foot
putt, while he failed a number of
times from five to eight feet. At one
hole Hweetaer pitched to within four
inches of the cup and on the “7th,
where Gardner laid him a stymie, the
champion Jumped it with a mashle
niblick and holed out a par four.
Max Marston of Philadelphia will
be Sweetser'g opponent In the final
round as the result of his victory,
3 and 2. over Francis Ouimet of Bos
ton. While Marston did not shoot re
markable golf, taking 81 for the first
round and being only a trifle better
on the second, Ouimet could not get
his game In working order and final
ly slipped on the last few holes, let
ting Marston get an advantage that
he could not overcome. *>
Ouimet was not crisp with his ap
proach shots, often falling wide or
short and he missed numerous
chances to get some medium length
putts. While Marston was not play
ing any better than Ouimet at any
place, he was better and steadier at
points where Ouimet slipped and even
had a break of luck on the short
13th hole where a wide pitch shot
hit the gallery and bounetd onto the
green Instead of getting into trouble.
This was the first time that Marston
has ever reached the finals in a na
tional championship, although he
once reached the semi finals.
