VANDERBILT GUP
SPEED TESTS
TOMORROW
By Arthur W. Greiner.
N MILWAUKEE, WIS., Sept. 18.
/I —With the officials here
frantic in an endeavor to get
the Wauwatosa course into condi
tion for the first speed trials of
the racers who will participate in
this week’s promised classics, the
drivers themselves keyed to a high
pitch of impatience and doubt, the
final preliminaries are being con
cluded and road practice is being
started in a small way. The road
is not yet entirely open and is far
from completion.
Bv tomorrow' we will be able to
tell whether speed of a high order,
commensurate with the honored ti
tles of the two big events, will be
possible. If the road proves a
failure and crowds are seriously
disappointed it will be a blow that
automobile racing, already on the
decline through the apathy of man
ufacturers and the concentration of
power in the hands of a few. will
find the most serious in its his
tory.
Thus far, though everybody who
has a deep interest In automobil-
Ing knows the races are about to
he run. there is a lack of that
frenzied zest which has in the past
surrounded a Vanderbilt cup or a
grand prize race. These two events
are traditional classics which in
their time have engaged the inter
est of the world and set the blood
of millions tingling. The night be
fore a Vanderbilt when it was held
on the Long Island course Broad
way was up and on its toes till
daylight saw the endless stream of
enthusiasts’ cars wending to the
the track.
East Bemoans Loss.
When the classic was moved
West the Eastern papers devoted
more space bewailing their be
reavement than the Western papers
have since utilized in announcing
the event. Milwaukee itself is not
as excited over the presence of
th° world s greatest sporting event
as New York was, and New York
Is still considerably larger than
Milwaukee, which still regards
quite another exhilarating product
as that which “made Milwaukee
famous."
That the Cream City will have
the cream of speed drivers of the
day none can deny. All the best
that the game affords are here, so
much so that if there should be
serious difficulties between the A.
A A. officials and the drivers gath
ered here it would be a tight> to
the finish that would tie automobile
racing into a knot that would hold
it. Nothing like that will happen,
however, because the wheelmen
who hold the entire industry in
their grip are divided into two
classes—gentlemen sportsmen who
love the grim contest and shrewd
professionals who live by it. But
the one big spine that held them
together is gone—the factory in
fluence Now auto racing is de
pendent on the private drivers and
the professional racing officials.
Always Broke Records in Past.
Milwaukee promised to give to
the two big races all the neces
sary elemnts of impressiveness that
they merit and that should help to
perpetuate them as the derbies of
mechanical speed events. Wheth
er these assurances will be made
good depends in the main upon the
condition of the road. In all jus
tice it must be said that no ef
forts are being spared to get it
imo shape, but it is a Herculean
task A Vanderbilt without broken
records would be unfortunate.
There never was one. For the good
°f the game we all hope that the
-■curse will prove capable of the
1 chest speed and that no tarnish
"Hl visit the shining Vanderbilt
cup.

GIANTS P ICKEO ST
CHANGE TO BEAT
RED SDX
By Sam Crane.
NEW YORK. Sept. 18 —So im
pressed is Frank Chance
with the stamina of the New
York team that It is mid he has
privately expressed the opinion
that the Giants will defeat the Red
Sox in the world's series.
Catcher Archer’s injury, of
course, was a most serious set
back to the Cubs, and that "alibi”
will be sprung with the usual
Windy City exuberance in manu
facturing excuses. But when that
has been done, it must he taken
into consideration that Chief My
ers met with an Injury that Inca
pacitated him at about the same
time that Archer was laid up.
The Giants were not weakened
by that, however, while the Cube
were. And that only goes to show
that McGraw’s system of fortify
ing his team is much superior to
that of Manager Chance.
McGraw Had Reserve.
The Cubs, of course, were forced
to make their fight for the leader
ship against the Giants. They bat
tered themselves silly by doing it,
for McGraw had in reserve a force
of resistance that was Impenetrable
when the crucial time arrived. The
home team was wabbling and bad
ly so, but when the Cubs got to
four games and a half and matters
looked the rosiest for them they
crumpled up, so that the Giants
now are as far ahead as they were
on their second Western trip.
But the fact remains just the
same that the Giants themselves
and their friends were frightened.
The scare was there and they were
in sore straits. But in the face of
the fright, McGraw refused to be
turned from the even tenor of his
way. and nursed his pitching staff
as if the Cubs were the last thing
to think about.
McGraw Saved His Pitchers.
While Chance felt obliged to use
Richie, Lavender, Cheney and Reul
bach against the Giants. McGraw
kept his pitchers going in their
usual routine and the consequences
are now that the Giants’ staff of
twirlers Is strong and capable.
Os course, the early lead that
McGraw had was in his favor, but
it is doubtful even if the Giants
had been pushed harder if McGraw
would have forced his pitchers any
harder than he did. He conserves
his resources.
