LLH 1 8 THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, SUNDAY MORNING, AUGUST 27, 1911. SPOTTING SEOTIOTM I Breaks the World's Record for Long Flight MADISON SQUARE I GARDEN DOOMED New York's Famous Temple of Sport Will Bo Torn Down This Fall. CORINTHIAN SOCCER TEAM POSTED AS AX OUTLAW Australia Sends Boy Athletes to America to Take Part in Competitions. BY MANHATTAN. By Leased Wire to The Tribune.

EW YORK, Aug. 20. N'cyr York will probably have a novr sporttnfr ccn tcr in place of Madison Square Garden, which is soon to pass away. and mako rav for skyscraper arcado buildinc The new ope will be located in the whit lipht district. It is also stated that it will surpass Madison Square Gar den in size, architecture, capacity and appointments.

Before New York's great temple of port, Madison Squaro Gordon, is razed, the Amateur Athletic union will endeavor to hold its annual indoor, r.hanv pionships. perhaps for the last, time in the metropolis. Though uo date has been set. it is believed they trill be held in the first week in November. The garden will be demonished in Feb runrv.

where the games will he held next venr is a question asked on all sides. Applications from Chicago, Boston, Washington and Baltimoro aro the hands of Sccrotary-Trcasurer JamF h. Sullivan. No disposition of the matter will ho made until next year's nationnl meeting. It is more than probable that Chicago will eel the plum.

Many baseball men favor the pro nosed plan doviscd by a St. Louis man for keeping baseball averages which makes the figures show what a player's value to the team 19. His plau is to score by bases instead" of hits. The idea is to work out the averages so as to show more plainly than thoy do what Actual execution toward winning a hall game a batter has done. Tho plan is to count, in figuring player's avoruge the number of he makes on his hits as well as the number of bases which be helps others to mnkc.

For instance, player making a baso would get one point. But if there in a runner on first when be mnkes his hit and the runner advances to second the bat-ter gets credit for two base, Tf the runner reached third on tho hit the batter would get threo bases, ono for getting to first hiuinelf and two for advancing tho runner from first to third. A player making a home run nmild get four bases. Jf tho bancs were full, he would get credit for ten bases, four for himself, three for the limn who went home from first, two for the runner who scored from sec and and one for the runner 011 third. Shows Accurate Credits.

player making a sacrifice hit would be credited for tho bases ad-vanced by the runners who moved up on his successful bunt. A man who singled and stolo second would get credit for two equal to tho bat ter who made a two-bagger. A batter working his opposing pitcher for a base on bnlls would get credit for one base. If there was a runner on first when he. drew his pass, he would bo credited with two buses for ho not only reached first himself, but forced the preceding runner down to eocond, the same as if he had made a hit.

A somewhat similar system is sug-grated in providing for pitchers7 aver-ages, which nt present arc unfair to tho twirler with a weak second-division club. Now a pitcher who holds the op-poncnts to three or four hits and one run and Iomis his game by a scorn of 1 to 0 is chnrged with defeat just the samo as the man who gives a dozen base on balls and is knocked all over the lot. Good pitchers with inferior club have no chance to ftnnd high. Bueker, Johnson. Keefe and Gapar, who arc tied up with second division teams, cannot show their roal value, for thev are bound to lose a well-pitched game on account of weak support.

Tn the proposed system the work of a pitch cr is figured on tho base HYatcm also, Just like the batter. That is. tho bases actually made are computed, counting all those made on baso hits, hascs on balls and any other points for which he is responsible. In this way really good pitching will show in averages and the firut-class man with tho poor club will havo a chance to stand up along- side the pitcher who in lucky enough to he with a winning team. Walter Barnes, who keeps closo watch on things athletic, all tho world round, thinks the intercollegiate track and field meet slionid be held in the htadium at Cambridge again next year.

There could be no finer sotting foT tho intcrcollogiatii trark and Held meet every trainer will tell vou that the Harvard track is the fastest iu the world. With Jones of Cornell, and Hanavan of Michigun, prepared for an atUck on the world's record, it would be a shamo to ask them to run on anv but the fastest track. Corintktans Are Outlaws. The forthcoming game at tho polo grounds botwenu the Corinthians of Kngland nnd the New York State league is likely to canso one of tho soccer wars the east has ever sceo. The American Football association of Newark, which controls soccer around that district, is governed by the Foot ball association of Grtat Britain, and tbe Knglish body has forbidden any American soccer football team from playing the Corinthians, claiming that PPJ this team la an outlaw organizatloa.

NEW YORK, Aug. 26. When the legislature meets again next month it is said that auothcr effort will be made to let down tho bars against betting to tho extent of Telievimj tho owners of trackB of criminal liability for tho doings of bookmakers. Already 197 horses have boon entered for tho fall meeting at Moot) roal. This is far in advance of nny previous noason and the class ifi mucin superior to that, of last spring, which wap tbo most successful meeting of tho club.

Throo of tho eight fixtures aro for Canadian horses. Ono of thoBo is fori the derby cup, -which is over a distance of ono and three-quarters miles. This wa3 won a year ago by Joseph E. SeagTam's Cruche d'Or. vrho is named again this season.

The other two for Canadian horses are for province breds, one being the King's plate, which has an addea value of $1200. In this thoro aro eight nnmed. all of which are now being given careful preparation at tho Blue Bonnets course. The open ovents havo attracted tho best horses now racing nnd will see many newcomers. Tho two ovonts through the steeplechase field havo filled better than in previous yenrs and thoro will be no scarcity of leap-era here this fall.

Tho Ilondrie Mo morlal, which will see the first running as a stako event, has attracted twenty-six. In thjs evont last season only half a tdor.on were named. Tho Strathoona steeplechase has an entry of thirty-one. Thoro aro 100 horses at Blue Bonnets, including tho locally owned ones, and the good condition of the track makes possiblo steady training for tho coming Benson. Big Stakes Closed.

Following aro tho big stakes which have recently closed and tho number of entries made in each: Hochelagn handicap, for 2-ycarolds with $1000 in added money; six furlongs. Earl Gray cup, for 3-year-olds and upward, handicap, with $1200 added; ono mile and a quarter.

Tho King's Plato, for 3-yenr-olds and upward, owned, foaled and raised in tho province of Quebec, with $1200 in added money; one mile and quarter.

Tho Kentucky State "Racing commission nllottcd dates for fall rncing as follows: Kentucky association, Lexington, September 14 to September 23. Now Louisville Jockey club, Louisville, September 25 to October 14. Latonla Jockey club, Latonia, October 10 to November 11, Tho Kentucky enduranco gold cup race of four miles, with a value of $12,000, will be run at Louisville, the date to be fixed by the later. Two new rules to lay over thirty duys were prcsonted. One stipulates that only tho pnri-mutuols system of hotting bo employed at trucks, thus doing away With auction pools.

Tho othor requires that all wires ovor which racing news might be disseminated bo removed from the grounds. This is intended to pro-vent distribution of information to handbooks ann" poolrooms. It is calculated that, the now race course at Laurel. will be open Oc tober 2. The track and 6tables.

will be rendy two or three weeks ahead of the opening day. The stand will be over 300 feet lone and seat fiOOO. It will be putterncd after tho stand ut Monerief park. Tho ring will be directly under it, while the paddock will be at one end of the stand, which will enable those who care to see the horses saddled to do so without going out of the stand. The ring will be an open ono and will accommodate fifty books.

It will bo looked after by Arthur Elrpd. who has much experience in that line, Havana to Havo Meeting. IT. V. Brown has spent the greater part of tho summer in Havana looking after tho building of the new plant there.

Ho will return to Laurel within a short time and will remain until tho plant is completed. He will be there to manage the meeting. The mooting in Cuba is scheduled to open Thanksgiving day, and everything will be in readiness long before that time. Charles Campau, who has been in Montreal all summer, will go to Laurel to look after tho clorical work. Joseph McLennan, ho will be H.

D. Brown's assistant, will join him. McLennan was most successful In his work with Manager Brown last winter and he Is sure to supply a book for all classes of horses. Starter Dado will likely be at Pirn lico during tbe racing at Laurel and either W. Murray or James Milton will do the starting at Laurel.

Joseph A. Murpbv will he presiding judge, with P. A. Brady as his assistant. Tho of the Windsor mcctinc shows that six stakes will be run ajf ut tho autumn running mooting.

Dates clnimcd are tho seven dnvs botweon August 2S nnd September -1. On Saturday, September 2, will be mn tho St. Clair hnndicnp for ull ages nt there-quarters of mile. Every prominent sprinter is represented among tho sixty-nine nominations. Belmont, Carman and Hlldrcth aro conspicuous in this HtTair by rcasou of their many candidates found in the list.

Americans visiting England will bo qnito liable to hear from many that racing is not what it used to be, in that place. Racing is a pastime for the upper middle- and upper classes who take thoir relaxation on race track Thero is commercialism in a good manv sporty but sometimes tho business side is indispensable if it 5s to bo attrac-tivej but it is not obtrusive, and the brilliant social sido of fho Euglish turf tones down anything which anight bo glaring.
