A. Kaiser, Louisville sportsman, won the Golden Rod Handicap at seven furlongs, worth net, the stake offering on the closing day of the Churchill Downs autumn meeting yesterday, but he had a mighty close call from defeat and gave his admirers who backed him at odds of 1 to 2 a good scare, as he beat King Nadi, Johnny Troxler's star Juvenile, by only the margin of a nose. Blue Bjdge, from the John S. Ward establishment, took the show end of it. eight lengths to the rear of King Nadi.

After Taube drop-kicked a field goal from the 20-yard line In the first period, no scoring was done until late in the second when Ballr ran fifty-eight yards and the Wildcats of Kentucky here today winning 42 to 7. The great breakers of the Tide were pierced for the first time this season, when Hughes, one of Kentucky's two ten-second halfbacks, intercepted a pass on hla own 3-vard line and sprinted down the aide of the field for the Wildcats' only tucky's goal the.1 when Hughes jumped in3 his 3-yard line and brci a Tide forward pass, way immediately and had gone thirty yaras distanced anyone who to gt him.

Alabama was at Its best today and its victory before 6,000 people should make it favorite over Georgia for the Southern championship. Alabama should more than hold Its own even against Notre Dame or Illinois.

His weight, 127 pounds, did not bother him. In my opinion, but he wa3 not himself somewhere or another, and he certainly showed that he is a real game horse to hang on like he did." The final day of the racing year here brought the coldest weather this autumn in its wake, but this did not serve to hold down the attendance to any noticeable extent. The crowd was the second largest of the meeting, being exceeded by only that of last Saturday when the Kentucky Jc-key Club Stakes was run. The programme was an excellent one with the Shawnee Tark Handicap worth $1,700, and the Tineerest Turse of 51,100, as supplementary features bold 1. who replaced Kir.g great work.

Until di renewal of the Golden Rod, but never before did its decision give the Downs patrons such a thrill. Naturally, it was the general opinion among those who know thoroughbreds that Captain Hal was a stand-out horse, with the contention to come from King Nadi. but they did not expect the latter to offer such formidable opposition Captain Hal allowed Little Visitor fo set the pace the first three furlongs, lie being under stout restraint for this period. Then Jockey Jake Heupel gave the Captain his head and in an instant he was on top and apparently on his way to an easy victory. Turning for home it looked as though nothing would worry the leader much as he was two lengths in front and running smoothly.

Alabama's play was carefully directed by Captain Hubert and the Wildcats were systematically worn down until the last quarter when they were done. In the attack, a good set of reserves did splendid work for Alabama. Three sensational runs and three forward passes served to make the game one of thrills, despite the one-idedness of the "score. Wonderful in-terference made possible the long runs of Alabama. Alabama scored twice in the first half and each came as the result of straight football and a forward pass.

The latter was for twelve yards, Gillis to Caldwell, and the latter went over the goal line. During the second period Caldwell caught a 31 yard pass and ran ten yards to Kentucky's 8-yard line, but "the Wildcats repelled any further advancing. Just before the Tide made Its second touchdown.

The meeting which closed yesterday was the most successful for this season of the year in many a day at the Downs. The weather break was perfect until the last day, and the entire fifteen days were marked by good track conditions. The attendance, was exceptionally good and the daily programmes were all that could be desired. It must beeaid, however, that by far too many races were scheduled to start out of the mile chute, at distances ranging from six to eight furlongs, thus depriving the patrons of seeing most of the starts. 1.
