um-lhey went bravely out today at m; usual time to thebattle ground, elm open ocean nine miles southeast of Brenton Lightship, with a great fleet oi pleasure craft, hundreds oi them from ocean liners down to dingy sailors and. put-puts trailing ‘in their wake.

Out o! the southwest came a few {only puffs of wind, wrinkling the Qily tops of the slow, shiny swells. Then even that died, and at 10.20 a, m. E. S. '1‘. there broke out from the committee boat Vliilielmirla. illl the heart of the tremendous fleet. the red and white pennant that signllls starting delay.

The fleet lay there, rolling idly in illc swells, smoke rising straight up from the stacks of the big tents. the sails of the little fellows flapping helplessly in an occas- icnnl breath.

The big blue-hailed Englishman ran up n main-sail and stay-sail and lolled about, barely under headway. Rrlnbow, like a huge

white gull resting oh the waters. drifted nearby. The salts aboard

the feet peered intently into the

dull, hazy skies and shook their heads. Thomas Octave Murdock drifted the challenger over by Rain- bow and stood by the wheel, mourn- ing the situation with Harold S. Vanderbilt, skipper of the harass- ed defender.

Far more than Sopwith, certain- ly, would Vanderbilt have liked to break up the staid decorum of in- ternational racing and set all hands frantically whistling for a breeze, just a little breeze, for this would be typical Rainbow weather.

Beaten twice, yesterday in the new cup record time of 3:09:01 ov- er the ail-mile triangular course, in nothing but a fresh sailing breeze. the Americans prayer .ls for light airs. In Saturday's drifting match, Rainbow was well ahead two miles short of the finish when time gave out. '

But no breeze came and for three hours, the fleet lay there until at 12.30 the Wilhelmina. whistled and signalled that there would be no race today. It was believed that the entire period of delay under the cup rules was used up rather than postpone earlier when the obvious- ness of the situation was appar- ent to all, because President Roose-

velt sat nearby on the deck of the 1h

Astor yacht Nourmahal, hoping for a final glimpse oi the races. He had to leave anyway later in the day, sailing from Poughkeepsio on the Nourmahal. ‘The President, a staunch yachtsman, departed reluc-. tantly. He has been here since the first starting gun.

Weather sharks still were shak- ing their heads tonight over the possibility of further postponements due to lack of wind, for such things run in cycles in these wat- ers. By various processes of divin- ation, the men who know about wind, including the chart makers. declared there was no real air eas‘. oi Omaha.

Cardinals Are Rained Out

(ILP. By Guardian's Special Wire)

NEW YORK, Sept. l9—With one big inning New York Giants tacked another half-game onto their Na- tional League lead here today, de- feating Cincinnati Reds 6-3 to in- crease their advantage over the second place st. Louis Cardinals to four full games. The Cards again were rained out at Boston.

Going into the last half of the eighth with the score tied at two- all, the Giants pllt together four hits. a base on balls and an error to score four runs.

Beryl Richmond kept the Giants hits well scattered until he blew up in the eighth. He was matched by Leroy Parmelee, however, until the Giants big right-bender was taken out for pinch hitter in the seventh. Joe Bcwflman, Al Smith, and Adolfo Luque finished up the game with Bowman getting credit for the victory.

two days over Pittsburgh Pirates as --they swept a doubleheader 4-1 and 8-4.

A seventh inning rally, in which seven runs were scored off three Pittsburgh pitchers. settled the night-cap behind the steady hurl- ing of Johnny Babich. Van Lingle Mungo held the Pirates scoreless in the opening contest until the ninth inning, limiting them to six scat- tered blows.

Curt Davis chalked up his 17th win of the sea-son at Philadelphia —a.n elusive mark for which he had been gunning since Aug. i-as he and his Phlllles mates landed on Chicago Cubs pitching for a. 5-4 victory in the third game of the current series.

It was the eighth time Davis had taken the mound against an en- emy in search of number 17 in his string. He not only limited the Cubs to seven hits, but drove in the two rluis that spelled victory.

By Guardian's Special Wire) Jortamzwarssmo, south Ari-lea, Sept 10-13. C. Sims, manager of the louth African British Empire Gflmcs team, made astonishing al- legations here today against Euro- pean competitors in the women's world games at London. The world games took place immediately fol- lowing the Bnpire Games.

In his report to the South Airi- can Olympic and British Ehnpire Games Association, Sims said: "I am very much against our taking part in the world events. The class of persons representing fol-elm countries in these games, to say the least is most peculiar and one heard renmrks 0n all sides that they are npl; women.

“From my personal observations, I must say I am very much in flsleement with these opinions as quite s. number of foreign athletes shaved, had V017 deep voices and gave the impression of being mas- cullne."

The boxing card staged at the Armouries last night drew only a fair crowd, the wet weather no doubt tending to lower the attend- arlce.

The first bout, the best of the evening, between “Flash" McDon- ald and young Hickey of Kensington resulted in a spli-t decision win for the local boy. “Flhsh" did most of the leading but I-Iickeys gameness under fire enabled him to last the route.

The semi-final between Benny Binns of Charlottetown and Jack Johnson of Mt. Stewart resulted in Binns scoring a knockout in the early seconds of the third round.

After two slow owning rounds. for the most part clinching, Binns came out fast in the third session to catch Johnson with a. hard right overhand smash behind the ear that spelled "lights out" for the Mt. Stewart bOY.

Kiwanis had scored three runs in the third inning, knot-

1 ting the count at 4.4.

With a brilliant record of 15 victories in as many starts this season, Ijeldlands 16th attempt was frustrate: by fighting, hard-hitting opponents who easily cqua ed four runs scored early by the invaders and then smothere the Gateways under eight mogé;

Although Bain held Kiwanis scoreless for the rest. of the third inning he was swept by a barrage in the fourth. When the smoke cleared another quartette had been added to the visitor's score.

Gateways made an impressive showing in the first inning by striking Roy Boles for four runs. The woe right-handcr- wasthen re- lieved by Brownell, who kept the challengers from scoring again un- til the eighth inning, when D. Hor- ton stole home for their fifth and R955 final run.

An eleventh-hour decision to start the game this afternoon came somewhat as a surprise following an announcement last night of a postponement until tomorrow owing to wet grounds. Although a bit slippery the diamond was in goki enough condition to permit play as originally scheduled. However, the outfield rerrlatrled quite soggy. H. Boles fell heavily in attempting t0 field Bailfs grounder near the box soon after the game started. i

Gateways came to bat with blood in their eye, One wal‘; and a series of singles put them four up before‘ Brownell halted the streak. Amiro and. Goudy scored on White's low single, and Veliiots hit brought LeBlnnc and White over the plate.
