FOREST HILLS, N. Y., August 23Th* sixteen players remaining in the national single* championship tournament now being con tsated on the courts of the VVeet Side Club here, furnished an exceptionally interesting card for todaj's play. Norman E. Brookes, of the visiting Australian team met Charles Garland, of Pittsburg, In the opening match. Other of the feature matches included William against vs. William If- Johnston, of California. Other pairings in the day’s play were Maurice E. McLoughlin v», Percy L. Kynaston; T. R. Pell va W. M. Hall; R. L. Murray vs. C. B. Doyle; R- Norris Williams, II v*. R. V* fhomaa, and N. W. Nile# vs. Wallace F. Johnson. Maurice E. McLoughlin. the auburnhatred “cotnet” from California, advanced another step in his effort to regain the national tennis championship by defeating loonard Beckman to the third round of the all-comers singles yesterday. The score was ft—3, ft—g, ft—3. . McLaughlin displayed much of the skill and terrific speed that enabled him to win the title to 1912 and 1»U and showed that to has lost non* of his old-time popularity with the crowd. Mac’s admirer* are confident that he will “coma back" in view of bis sensational showing against Beckman Clegr skies and warm sun provided Ideal conditions for Thursday’s matches and broGght out an unusually large crowd. Among those present was James J. Corbett, the former heavyweight champion, who watched the match between R. Norris Williams II and Willis E. Davis with keen interest. Being a Californian Corbett waa disappointed when Williams won In straight seta, ft—2, ft—2, ft-t Corbett gald be thought fighters would he benefited by making tennis a part of their regular training.

NEW YORK. August 29.—Experience this year spells the doom of the short season in the major leagues. Magnates in both circuits are kicking themselves, so to speak, over falling for the HO-game idea In face of Its lack of merit over the old 154-game series, the club owners have adopted the ’ never again" motto. # President Heydler. of the National League believes that the first decision made when next season's schedules are arranged, will be to bring back the old long season. “From the talk of club owners I have no doubt that they will disapprove further experiment with short seasons, ’ he said today's Loss of fourteen gaihes has not only meant much in dollars and cents to the elub owners, but it may be a factor in cutting some of them out of fat slices of world s seHes coin. Cleveland and Detroit both figure that tne short season cut them out of a swell chance for the American League pennant. They both figure that fourteen more games would give them Just the chance wanted to cut down the margin of the leading White Sox. The subject may be considered Tuesday. when the national commission meets in Chicago.

WORLD’S BEST PACING STARS IN TRAINING Ml

SINGLE G., 1:59 1-2, AND MISS HARRIS M. t :15814, TUNE UP FOR BIG EVENT, WEDNESDAY.

Much discussion is going on in horse circles regarding the outcome of the big pacing match scheduled for the statb fair, next Wednesday, and the partisans of both Single G., 1:59%, and Miss Harris M.. 1:58%, appear pretty confident that each will be ready for a supreme trial on that date.

Later, in another workout, Fleming stepped the speedy daughter of Peter tho Great a mile a trifle faster, with the final half in 5644 seconds. This clip seems convincing proof that the champion pacing mare 1* In the best form of her life, and that Single G. will have a very big contract cut out for him when the two 'meet on tho

big mile oval. here.

v Always Come* Back. ^ On the other hand, the Indiana Stallion is a pacing wonder that It is never safe to predict defeat for. as It has been shown time after time. Every season at some period he has appeared out of form and would be beaten just frequently enough to get some of the wisest to phophesy loudly that Single G. was all tn, after which he would return to record breaking condition and astonish and confuse all those who lacked confidence In his ability to trim the others of the fast division. It was after such an evldentiack of form that he last fall paced the Des Moines half-mile track in 2:01 and thereby made a new world's record for the small ovals. ^ However, his defeat at Springfield last week was in no measure a disgrace, for it would have required a real champion in the best form to cope with Grace Direct that day, when she paced one mile In 2:00%, There is every indicarlion that the stallion will be-ready for the match. This week he has no race and he was shipped to the state
