Who Won

P: Rev. Garrison Roebuck, United Brethren Minister of McClure, Ohio: the Grand American Handicap of the Amateur Trapshooting Association; at Vandalia, Ohio. Shooting at clay pigeons for the tenth time in his life, Trapshooter Roebuck broke 96 out of a 100 at 17 yards, won the shoot-off against Fred Harlow of Newark, Ohio and Ray F. Willbaum of Greenville, Ohio. He was awarded a silver replica of the A. Bennett Gates trophy, on which his name will be engraved; a $600 tea set; and $1,000 in cash.

P: Van Dike, five-year-old race horse owned by John J. Nesbitt: the Cooperstown Steeplechase, at Saratoga Springs. The favorite, The Ace II, fell at the second jump. Autumn Bells then got a long lead, seemed sure to win until he fell at the 13th fence. Eiderbard, ahead at the 16th jump, ran off the course and was brought back in time to finish second to Van Dike, by 50 lengths.

When Eiderbard finished, the race appeared to be over until a spectator noticed another horse, Ortlieb, standing beside the 16th fence where he had fallen. The spectator suggested to his Negro jockey, I. Wren that he mount Ortlieb, hurry in to win the $100 third prize. I. Wren tried five times to make Ortlieb jump the last fence, finally got him to "creep" over it by walking him up to the jump and shouting "giddap." He then rode in, ten minutes behind Eiderbard, while the crowd cheered and the band played "The Jolly Blacksmith." The judges decreed that the time limit for the race was over, that no horse had finished third.

P:Steve Crothers, trapshooting champion of Pennsylvania: a shoot against the champions of 40 other states, the canal zone, and Alberta; by breaking 200 consecutive birds, as he had done in winning his state championship; at Vandalia, Ohio.

P:Margaret Ravior, Philadelphia long-distance swimmer: the annual women's ten-mile marathon on Lake Ontario, near Toronto, which she won for the first time a year ago. Her mother, watching the race from shore, was congratulated on her daughter's ability by a famed seagoing spectator, British Admiral of the Fleet Earl Jellicoe.
