Marston, Ouimet
Are Eliminated in
Semi-Final Round
Former Open, \niateur
Champ Suffers \\ orst De
feat in His Career at
Hands of Southern Star.
RDMORE. Pa., Sept.
26.—Youth was
served in largo
measure In Hie
semi-final round
of the national
a mate 11 r golf
tournament to
day. George
von Elm of Los
Angeles dethron
ed the champion.
Max R. Marston
of Philadelphia,
by 7 and 6, anil
Robert T. Jones,
jr., of Atlanta, eliminated Francis
Ouimet of Boston, 11 and 10.
Either Jones or von Elm will be
come champion as the result of (lie
final 36-hole round tomorrow. They
have never met before in the nation
al tournaihent. Jones, second in the
qualifying round with a score of 111,
has had the forme formidable foes
lo eliminate, Marston excepted. Von
Elm, tied for eighth plaee in the qual
ifying list with a score of 150, lias
attracted attention all the week by
the lowness of Ills medal scores in
matrli play, although Jones, with a
73, had the better medal today by
three strokes.
Possibly it was the physical and
mental strain of protracted 36 hole
matches that caused Francis Ouimet,
former open and amateur champion,
to suffer tlie worst defeat of his
career today. Out of 26 holes played
he won two and halved 11. Jones shot
like the machine he is at his best.
For 26 holes he took one over fours,
or two over par, on the rugged, heav
ily trapped and watery course.
Ouimet, behind from the tee most
of the time and often in the rouEh
after hooks, was a trap-shooter to
day. It was seldom that Ms ap
proach shots did not land in the soft
sand which guards every carpet at
Merlon, and his recoveries were far
from the excellent variety he showed
in the Walker cup tournament and
in previous rounds this week.
Von Elm. who Is a skilled golfer,
waited for openings and then smash
ed through. Taking advantage of
every slip of the champion save two,
both of which resulted in halves, von
Elm was over par 10 times in the 30
holes of his match with Marston,
hut in only four cases was Marston
better. Playly coolly, as if In stroke
competition, von Elm never made two
poor shots through the green in suc
cession, while Marston, especially in
the afternoon round, was timid with
his irons.

Helen Major
Easv Winner
*
in First Race
Despite a misting rain which de
tracted from the hard surface of the
track at the races, the thoroughbreds
running at the Ak-Sar-Ben track Fri
day afternoon managed to make a
fir showing for the small crowd which
collected.
The first event went to Helen Ma
jor, easily the best there. Cannon
ball tried hard, but tired and fell heir
to second money when Ukase failed
to close quite strong enough to over
come his lead. Ukase was forced to
he content with the consolation end
Of the purse.
lied Easter Wins Second.
Bed Easter made his how to the
maiden class in the second, a 2 year
old event, when he came home to
win nicely. Dust Rrush, Bert Toe
man s classy little filly, tried to take
the honors away from her opponent,
hut was forced to take second money
at the last. Hapsburg Miss was an
easy third.
Put and Take Third.
Put and Take came in a winner in
the third event to pay his backers
the longest odds of the day. His win
was worth $27.30 to every dollar bet
by his backers. He ran his own race,
and staying close on the rail waited
on the leaders until he was ready to
close with an astounding rush. Clock
Stocking did her best and finished
second, while Recruit, trying hard to
the last, was an exceedingly close
third.
Jack Lee Wins Fourth.
The fourth event went to Jack Lee.
Alice Byers was second and Kentucky
Smiles third.
The Dictator Takes the fifth..
The Dictator took the fifth event,
the Sarah Bernhardt ■ handicap, in a
fast finish. He was saved behind the
pacemakers all the way and then
closed strong. Edmon, coupled with
Runolathe as an Irwin entry, came
along to place and John A. Scott, aft
er running away from the barrier,
came in for show.

Fast Runners
Sow York, Sept. IS.—Assuming a
fast track, a good start, experts are
predicting the greatest battle In the
history of the American turf when
Epinard faces the barrier with Lad
kin, Wise Counsellor, Zev and My
Own in the second international spe
cial over a mile at Acqueduct Sat

Opinions are based on the ramark
able victory of August Belmont s Lad
kin In the Edgemere handicap last
Saturday, a sensational l:38-mlle trial
by Epinard on Wednesday and the
effort of Zev in the Averne handi
cap on the same day.
Wise Counsellor, winner over Epi
nard In the first International race
over six furlongs at Belmont park,
has also been working well In prac
tice and must be considered among
the possible winners.
Eugene Leigh, trainer of the French
chestnut, was so pleased by the colt's
performance In his recent trial that
he made his first prediction of vic
tory since coming to the country.

Bluejays Stage
Belated Rally
to Win Contest
Coach Wynne’s Line Fails to
Hold at Critical Mo
ments — Outstaters
Work Hard.
ELEVEN of the figlitin'est of
fighting football men clad in
the Orange and Black of Mid
land college nearly sent the Creigh
ton university eleven bark to Omaha
yesterday stinging under the smart
of a defeat, but Coach Chet Wynne's
proteges staged a belated rally in the
final 111 minutes of play to shove over
two touchdowns. They won, 10 to 7.
The day was far from a fitting day
to dedicate the new Midland athletic
field. Kain, rain and more rain blew
across the field in intermittent gusts
that sent spectators scurrying to
rover and made the football field
slow as molasses.
The Bluejays were not at all Im
pressive yesterday. The line failed
at the crucial monemts. and but for
the staunch-hearted Lower, who prac
tically licked the Fremonters by a
series of sensational runs, the story
might have been different.
Not that Midland could have won,
far from that, hut with the score
tied. 7 to 7. in the fourth quarter,
the host o fCrelghton supporters who
had braved the drizzle to see the con
test, had visions of what was to have
been a practice game ending In an
Ignonimous tie.
• 'oach Speers had Injected a bit of
“Indian ' Schulte's psychology, that
“a team that w-nn't lie beat can't be
beat," In his squad, and they shotted
it.
Pitted against a "big time team,"
the -Mldlanders never flinched a
tackle. They worked all the time.
Every man on the team was plugging
from whistle to whistle, and before
the Creighton line which la com|>osed
of giants, the Midland linesrqen stood
their ground like soldiers

early in the season when he wat
tack led by a stray Central grldster.
Schmidt. Central grid mentor, again
sent his husky gridsters against the

concentrating on the overhead game
a great deal. It Is probable that
Sfihmidt will depend on the aerial,
attack in the Beatrice clash, Octo
ber 3.
The first squad looked very much
better than it did last week. The
linemen seem to jump with the ball.
Leahy, one of the candidates for a
tackle position, failed to show up for
Practice Thursday. Gorton was shifted
to tackle, while Lcpecier and Clarke
were holding down the wing positions.
How-ell is out of the game with a
sprained ankle.
Bill Kgan and flashy “Missouri"
Jones are running neck and neck for
the signal barking job this season.
Kgan is more experienced than Jones
but the diminutive track man is still
trying for the position. Kgan will
probably have the best chance of
starting in the Beatrice affair.
The wearers of the Purple are;
again scheduled to go through the
same routine today

Washington Pitching Arc In*

Pitched Hall in Fifth
Inning.
oston, Sept. —
Washing ton ’ s
pennant aspira
tions received a
rude jolt today
when Ferguson
pitched Boston
to a I to 1 vic
tory over the
Senators in the
first game of
four scheduled to
be played here.
New York’s vic
tory while Wash
ington lost re
duced the Sen
ators’ lead in the
pennant race to one full game. The
league leaders made only seven hits.
Another blow to Washington hopes
came when Walter Johnson, the
club's pitching ace, was hit on the
left elbow by a pitched bail in the
fifth and apparently severely injured.
Marberry pitched the eighth inning
against Boston. After 13 consecutive
victories Johnson figured as losing
pitcher. In the fifth Veach. with
one out. scratched a hit through
Stanley Harris and went
when Boone singled - 1
ter. Joe Harris' Texas leaguer to
short center brought the score. Ez
sell forced Harris, but Lee's long
single to left center let Boone In with
what proved to be the winning run
Stanley Harris and Rice were in
field outs, how ever, and the W i -
inirron rally was o'er.
There were two other occasions
when the Senators had chances to
satisfy the rrowd of 12.000 which '
railed repeatedly for a Washington J
victory. In the second with one out '
Judge doubled and Bluege got an in- |
field single, but Peckinpaugll was
railed out on strikes and Ferguson
threw out Rurl. Again in the ninth
with two out Bluege singled and
went to third on Peek’s single to
light. Peek was caught between
second and first for the final out.
Veach made two hits off Johnson
and oiip off Marberry. After hitting
safeij in 31 consecutive games, Sam
Kice went hitless today.
