T HE motordrome track record for two miles was broken twice last night by the terrific rid ing of “Tex” Richards and Morty Graves, who circled the saucer at the fearful clip of 88 miles an hour. “Tex” was the first to smash the mark, when he won the final heat of the Southern championship race in 1:23. Then a few minutes later, Graves, riding the second heat of the special match race with Richards, spun off the eight laps In 1:22. Both races were wildly received by the big crowd that marked the Labor Day attendance, and, in fact, all the races were excellent and marked by fast time and hard rid ing. Renel, the French rider, scored 22 points in the Labor Day sweepstakes and w r as awarded the race, the scor ing being under the French system. Richards won the Australian pursuit race, which was an exciting affair. Following is a summary of the events: Southern Championship. HEATS 1 MILE. FINAL 2 MILES.

CHICK [VANS HAS BOOST FI PAUL HUNTER By Chick Evans. P AUL HUNTER, a a every one knows, gladdened the hearts of his friend* f>y winning the Lake Geneva tournament and many of the adjuncts thereto. We were not pleated because he defeated some of our other friends, but because he plays such de serving golf and has had so much, undeserved bad luck. It seemed high time that such good playing should meet Its just deserts. Paul Hunter comes of a strong golfing family. His mother Is much Interested in his game. His father, C. L. Hunter, is a very good player him self, and his cousin, Robert Hunter, is a player of the highest class, who, unfortunately, has not been seen on local links this year. It appears that a certain facility in golf playing runs in families, most notable examples, in addition to the Hunters, being the Gardners and the Edward*. Paul, who is almost exactly my age, has played golf since hls‘ earliest childhood, and for years has been con sidered one of our very beet players. Long before I began to play In public I saw pictures of Paul Hunter, a verv email lad, with a golf club in his hand, In newspapers and golf magazines. He did marvelous things in those ^ays and Is still doing them. He p.t-iyy .n perfect form, a fine, free, wld; buen, easy style, and commands one or the longewt iron shots I ever saw played. He is a strong, big fellow as golfers go. and gets his strength into the ball to the fullest advantage. He seems to play, however, in tho most exasperating hard luck. When he loses it is almost always by the narrowest of margins, and almost al ways there is some rather spectacular bit of misfortune connected with hi* defeats.
