DFCRE5CENT CRICKETERS Alex Smith, M. G. A. Title Holder. The Motor Racing Association is bending every effort toward making the international twenty-four hour automobile race on the reconstructed Brighton Heacil Motordrome, Friday and Saturday.

September 24 and 25. the greatest speed spectacle of the age. Special prizes have been offered to keep all tbe cars on the track all the time. The special cash awards for one hour's record for thn grestest mileage during the concluding sixty niinins of the titanic struggle and the magnificent trophy offered for the establishment of a new world's record lor tne race "twice around the clock" are all caL-ulatnJ to make the contest a bitterly fought struggle for every mlie and every minute during the hours. In order not to conflict with the 1 1 nl -son-Fulton River pageant the stsrt will be at 5 o'i lock in the afiernoon of Friday.

September 24. and run continuously until the same hour on Saturday afternoon. This will give three hour to spectators of the motordrome speed battle to return to the city to witness the night pageant on the Hudson This great track struggle will probably be tile last of the year. Entrants are making gret-'r preparations than for cither of the preceding similar contest first allotment. Last year a number of concerns were unable to secure any space at all, owing to their failure to file their applications promptly.

The first entry of an amateur team In the six-day motorcycle race, to be held in the Brighton Beach motordrome, September 27 to October 2. consists of L. H. Guterman, William P. Couracn and F.

Heironymus. To-morrow will be the last Sunday that automobllists may take their cars across Long Island Sound on the ferry between Rye and Sea Cliff, as tbe service will be discontinued for this season on Tuesday nipht. Jt was originally intendd to maintain the ferry until October 12. but the great demand for boats during th" Hudson-Fulton Celebration made the operation of the ferry on the Hudson next week imperative. It is possible that the ferry will be re-established during the week preceding the Yanderbilt Cup Hare, announcement of which will be made later.

September Id M. G. A. Open Championship Captured by Alex. Smith Former National Title Holder Wins From Field of Experts at Wykagyl Links, With a Total of 306 Strokes for Four Rounds.

Gilbert Nicholls in Second Place With 308 Fine Showing by Maiden; Nassau Country Club Who Jumps Into Fourth Place With 310 Results in Intercollegiate and Western Open Except for Leather Chasing in Philadelphia, Series of 1909 Was Successful. An enjoyable, if not overwhelmingly successful, season, has been finished by the cricketer.i of the Crescent Athletic Club, who contested a series of fourteen matches, of which six were won and eight lost. A number were lost by a narrow margin, but the heaviest defeat was incurred in Philadelphia, where the cracks of the Belmont Cricket Club made merry at the expense of the doughty Brooklyn clubmen. With the addition of two or three batsmen of the type of Captain W. F.

Jackson and J. A. Simpson, the Crescent eleven as a mcst formidable aggregation would be about complete. There is a bis gap In the figures of those two and of those immediately following in the lhit, and only six altogether finished with double figures. Jackson accomplished the lion's share of the work, scoring 411 runs and capturing forty-jne wlckew.

Ho batted in sixteen innings and, thanks to his century against the Zingari team, beaded the Crescent batting averages, slightly in advance of Simpson. The latter, who also gave invaluable aid as the wicket-keeper of the team, finished a very close second for batting honors. His highest single contribution was 59. The other double figure men were A. Baxter.

K. B. Chadwick. C. B.

Hawley and H. J. Cbarlwood. Though Captain Jackson took the largest number of wickets for his team, they cost him 618 runs, having bowled nearly a thousand balls, and he had to be content with being placed fourth on the list. The bowling honors went to W.

Bonnar, with an average of 10.24, but close at hi3 heels comes C. B. Hawley, with 12.12. Each of theee bowlers captured 25 wickets. J.

O. P. Humphreys was placed third. TLe other bowlers all took less than ten wickets. Following are tbe tables showing the indiviaual work of the Crescent playcro in both departments of the game' CRESCENT A.

It was also Intended to show the Germans that Marblchead is not the only port on tbe Atlantic roast where a hearty welcome and a good lime arc always awaiting them Lower bay dinners are merry ones and the one given by Commodore Cbllds wss no exception to the rule. Song and laughter reigned supreme, and there were no old fogy speches to worry the guests.

True, several of the yachtsmen said a few words, but they were "speechlrts" and not speeches. Among those who welcomed the Germans were Bartow S. Weeks. Commodore Frank M. Wilson.

Chapln. There seems some sort of hoodoo hanging over the Childs Challenge Trophy this year. After waiting all season for a race, the contest schedule for yesterday afternoon developed Into a no race aflair, as Windward, the leading craft. wa3 unable to reach the finish line within one-half hour after sunset. Had the wiqd only held, the Crescent Athletic Club would to-day be the owner of the big silver wheel for another year.

As It is, the doats are racing again this afternoon and the other clubs are hoping that they will be more successful. The Crescent Athletic Club defended the trophy with the new Gardner boat Windward. The controlling interest In the craft is owned by Addison G. and II. W.

Hanan. The Atlantic Yacht Club was the challenger and the representative of the Sea Gate Club was R. A. Brown's Florence, sailed yesterday by John R. Brophy.

Commodnro W. H. Childs represented the Brnonhtirt Yacht Club with the new Herreshoff creation. More Joy, nnd F. G.

Stewart was at the starting line with Princess, flying the burgee of the Scawaobaka-Corinthian Yacht Club. The wind was light and from the south-west at the start. The regatta committee, made up of H. E. Boucher, Atlantic Yacht Club, and A.

F. Aldridge. Cres cent Club, decided to send the craft down the channel to Buoy No. 7, off West Bank, then to Fort Hamilton. Bensonhurst and Sea Gate.

The start was made off the Atlantic Yacht Club, and after the boats were under way the members of the regatta committee were the guests of Commodore Francis M. Wilson on bearii his power yacht Sumida. The steam yacht Inca, the property of Edgar F. Lu -kfcntiack. also followed the racers, carrying the German sonder class yachtsmen, who were last night dined at St a Gate.

Excellent seamanship gave Addison G. Hanan, who was sailing Windward, the best position at the start. The wind was exceptionally light and the yachts hardly moved. Taking advantage of every catspaw, Hanan was able to reach the weather mark by 4:11:30. At that hour the Windward was already many minutes within her timo allowance to the other craft.

More Joy went around at 4:411 anu then came Princess at 4:49:10 and Florence at 4:51:55. Windward continued to ghost awry from the others, but the wind, never strong, petered out, and the race was called off when the Hanan craft was on the last leg of the voyage. Dixie II once more made excellent time in the races on the Hudson River yesterday. The craft was without, class competitor, but she succeeded in going over a thirty mile course in wonderfully fast time. Her speed yesterday was 37.064 statute miles an hour.

It is the latter organization's first attempt in this direction, but the success of tbe horse shows, race meets and other society sporting functions bold on the club grounds should be an indication as to the outcome of the dog show. Chairman John G. Bates of the bench committee has received the pntrles of all the best dogs now being shown in the East and it is expected that at least 5ti0 dogs will be benched.

Special arrangements wil be made for the accommodation of the visitors at the clubhouse and cars will run direct from the ra.lroacl station 10 tne grounds. HUNTINGTON PONY PARADE. Huntington, L.

Armstrong Of the tour games contested In North America by the Gentlemen of Ireland who, to-day, are playing against the Gentlemen of Philadelphia at Haverford, three were won by the visitors and one, the first one in Ottawa, drawn. This success must be credited largely to the efforts with ball, as well as bat, of W. H. Napper, the crack player of the Uni versity of Dublin, who mowed down the New York batsmen in the first innings at Livingston, last Saturday. Of seventy wickets taken by Jhe side so far, no less than thirty-four stand to the credit of the phenomenal Irish slow bowler.

His average, which no doubt will suffer somewhat against the finished batsman Philadelphia is able to place in the field, is 8.18. He is outranked in this for the time being, by J. G. Aston and 0. Andrews, but these have bowled only in three and two Innings, respectively, and then only for brief periods.

As matters now stand, Napper has been thft backbone of his side. What the visitors would have done without him it is quite difficult to imagine. Napper. having made a score of 47 against Baltimore this week, is fourth in the battlne aver ages. In this department, G.

A. Morrow has a comfortable lead over his comrades. and he has shown very consistent form since the s'art. His Innings have Deen 2. 30, 23, 4, 33, not out.

and 27. The lushest score of the tour was made by O. Andrews in the first innings against Bal timore, where he tailed 61 not out. Next to that effort comes Napper's 47. The detail scores made by the visitors in their four matches are as follows: Ottawa.

70; Gentlemen of Ireland, 106; drawn. Toronto, 79 and 156; Gentleman of Ireland. 169 and 174; won. New York, 29 and 177; Gentlemen of Ireland. 127 and 84 for fio wickets; won.

Baltimore, 77 and 141; Gentlemen of Ireland, 214 and 5 for one wicket; won. Following are the batting and bowling records of the visiting cricketers to date: RATTING. Batsmen. R. Ave.

urn ws ft tv a fv CKVTi RT corner Kwn -maih c. Championships. Alex Smith, champion of the Eastern Professional Golfers Association and former national titleholder, added another scalp to his belt yesterday, when over the links of the Wykagyl Golf Club of Now Rocholle, he captured the Metropolitan Golf Association open chanpionsblp from tbo cream of the Eastern professionals with a score of 306 strokeB for seventy-two holes. Gilbert Nicholls, Wilmington, finished second with 308. Orrln Terry, Canoe Brook, third with 309; James Maiden, Nassau, fourth with 310, and H.

H. Barker, Garden City, fifth, with 312. There were eight prizes in all, the money ranging from $150 to the winner down to $10 for eighth man. Smith had a much closer call than the result of the first duy's play foreshadowed, and it was only after a stiff fight that the former Nassau expert won out. "1 never played harder to win any championship than I have done to-day," said Smith at the finish.

"They simply would not come to-day." His play up to a certain point certainly did not inspire confidence in those who had backed him to win out comfortably. Ho had four 6s In bis morning round and as he needed 40 for the incoming nlno holes, his card mounted up to 78. Gilbert Nicholls, who had started out six strokes behind, finished at 75, and jumped Into second place, now only three strokes behind. Smith started the afternoon round by dropping more strokes and at the fourth hole Nicholls had drawn level by perfect golf. At the eighth he had actually gained a stroke, but ho immediately fell behind a point by taking 7 on the nintn.

Smith to this point, had required 41 strokes and had missed puns of not more than a foot at both the seventh and eighth, through, as it seemed, sheer carelessness. The Wykagyl man had a weak drive for the tenth and took 5 for the hole, but from this point he steadied down and played faultless golf. He a 3 at the fifteenth and almost holed a chip approach at tbe sixteenth for 2. Nicholls had finished by the time Smith started the last hole, leaving the home pro a 6 to win out comfortably. Smith immediately pulled his drive into the rough and it was all he could do to get out.

He got his next strokes away all right and on the edge of the green in 4, be holed out in 6 and won out by two strokes. But for two 6s by Nicholls Incoming the result might have teen different. Strangely enough he made the same blunder as his rival on the last hole. Orrln Terry, a home-bred, got away with third money by playing two steadr rounds of 78 and 77. This placed him Just one stroke behind Nicholls.

The surprise and at the same time the best golf of the day ere furnished by Alex. Smith's successor at the Nassau Country James Maiden, who jumped from obscurity into fourth place with a total or 310. It is not tbe first occasion on which Maiden has pushed himself to the front. He won the Ohio State championship once by a whirlwind display and tied with Lawrence Auchter-lonie for fourth place in the national open the year that Alex and Willie Smith were first and second, respectively. Yesterday's display will, however, compare favorably with any, and is especially noteworthy for the fact that It is the first tournament Maiden has played in, with the exception of the open cbam-1 pionship at Englewood since coming from the South.

His rounds yesterday were 78 and 72, the latter the lowest that has been made throughout the tournament, while his double round of 150 is also lowest. Needless to say. Maiden's golf during the afternoon was well nigh perfect. At the second he holed a chip approach and also' got down a fifteen-foot putt at the seventh, but otherwise his play was utterly devoid of fireworks, "Just golf." Maiden's half-way totals were 36. out, end 36.

in. How different it was with some of the other players who showed the least tendency to wandpr. The Wykagyl links is one of the most picturesque spots to be found studded with teeing boxes and flag pins, but it Is too rugged and difficult for many, and in consequence some of the pros did not rarry away very pleasant memories. As an example, David Hunter. Essex County, who broke the record at Englewood.
