REDS’ BEST PITCHING BET

jmSBXbsmM

One of the greatest pitch era In the major leagues is Walter Ruether, a lefthander. whose work this year has been one of the big factors in the success of the 'Ctocmnati Reds. He outclasses all left-handers in the older league, as is shown by his record of winning seventeen out of twenty-three games. He has participated in twenty-seven games during the season. Ruether was obtained from the Cubs in 1917 and after pitching a few games for the Reds early in ms he entered the army. He is still a youngster and should be good for many seasons to come. He deserves the distinction of being the Reds’ best pitching bet. •

GOLD CUP RACE.

DETROIT, August Four of the /• hydroplanes entered in the gold cup race, emblematic of the world’s power boat championship, were expected to compete in the second thirty-mile heat today. Only two raced the first heat yesterday, the Miss Detroit III winning over the Miss Detroit II by two seconds. The Ml** Belle Isle was kept out of the first heat by mechanical trouble, but at the eleventh hour made the course before sundown, and under the rules will enter the second heat with 1 point to her credit The other entry, the Arab IV,

of Buffalo, had not reported

Cox started his star winner Mignola, which won a stake on Tuesday, in the stake for 2:00 trotters and he made his count nine races won for the season, easily beating the field In straight heats. Pop Geers also broke into the winning column with the two-year-old filly Dudette, which won the junior division of the American Horse Breeder futurity after a hard battle with the Laurel Hill filly, the great Miss Morris, sister to the two champions, Peter Volo and Volga.

The management of Laurel Hall as well as the management of the fair is desirous of correcting an Impression that seems to be prevalent concerning the appearance of Peter the Great, 2:07%. the famous trotting sire, at the state fair next week. From inquiries of visitors at the farm, it seems to be the prevailing opinion that the world sensation among stallions will be on * exhibition through the week, but this is erroneous. Final and definite announcement has been made that he wm be on exhibition in the Coliseum at 10. o’clock on Wednesday morning, and at ( 1 o'clock that afternoon will be exhibited in front of the grand stand. Before Grand Stand. Because of the star racing program that Secretary Kennedy has arranged for Wednesday, it was felt that the exhibition before the stand that afternoon would allow more people a chance to view the great sire than at any other time during the week, ("‘ 8 arrangement was made.

MARINES WIN AGAIN.

CALDWELL. N. J- August 30,-For the third consecutive time the United States marine corps team won the national te^m match, the final event of the National Rifle Association meet which ended Friday at the navy rifle range here. Brookside Finals. Finals In both the singles and doubles were scheduled for this afternoon at Brookaide as a conclusion to the municipal courts tournament which has been running there during August.

FT. WAYNE. August 30.-After’much excitement, a lot of words, countless strokings, and a week of thrilling tennis that galvanized the enthusiastic gallery time* after time and showed conclusively of what stuff these tennis men of the middle west are made, it has narrowed down to the finals. The match today is an ancient one. Young ‘Fritz Bastian plays younger Johnny Hennessey. For a time during the state tournament, which is being wound up today on the courts of the Country Club here, it seemed that foreigners might take the sacred laurels. For Indiana, with a bold care-freeness, does not hold out an open tennis championship. The e was a day, not so many hours old, when five of the eight huskies competing for the Hoosier title were from banks other than the Wabash, or the Ohio, or the Calumet. But now the excitement Is to come to a^ grand flashing close. Once more John Hennessey will attempt to dispose of his Goliath, who. perhaps unfortunately, is also Jtl» friend, Fritz Bastian. Hennessey won the right to play In the finals, yesterday, when be defeated Harold Bartel, of Cleveland, runner-up in the Ohio state tourney, 6—2, 6—1, 6—4. Fritz Bastian defeated Harold Hane, of Cleveland, 5—1, 6—4, 6—2. Hennessey had the harder match of the two. Bartel was all that Bastian could handle In the finals of the Buckeye open at Cleveland last week. Fritz won the Ohio title, but he won it after a gruelling week. It was greatly to Hennessey’s credit that he took the match as he did Friday; Some thought that he would not turn the trick. And by virtue of hi* defeat of Bartel in such a glorious manner. Johnny is much higher In the estimation of the general public in their doping of the winner this aft-

ernoon.

Bastian Favorite Techically. Bastian is given the edge on Hennessey for several reasons. There Is no one. in Indiana who has played more tennis this summer than Bastian. He started early at Indt^ ana university and participated frequently in college and ainiverslty team play. He smashed through the conference until he encountered Walter Westbrook, of Detroit. He gave Green, a Chicago crack and member of the west team in the east-west team play, a thrilling chase in the national clay court singles. The Ohio state competition last week showed him at his beat. The Spartan training that Bastian has enjoyed will be in good stead in the matches to come. He has met Hennessey but twice this season. and he defeated him both times. The first Instance was the first annual invitational championship singles play for the Woodstock C. C. trophy cup.

FOREST HILLS, N. Y„ August 30. —William M. Johnston, of San Francisco, who defeated Gerald L. Patterson, of Australia, world tennis champion, in five hard-fought sets yesterday in the national championship singles tournament 1 here, today faced another title-holder, R. Ltndley Murray, of Niagara Falls, American champion. In the round preceding the semi-final. Two former American champions were brought together—Maurice E. McLoughlin, of Los Angeles, facing R. Norris Williams II, of Boston, who won the title from him in 1914 and again defeated him in 1918. McLoughlin had not met serious opposition in his previous games, Vhile Williams dropped his first set yesterday when he eliminated R. V. Thomas, of Australia. Norman E. Brookes, the only Australian survivor, had as his opponent, William T. Tilden II, of Philadelphia, winner of the Newport invitation singles three weeks ago. After losing the first two sets. Brookes yesterday put out Charles S. Garland, of Pittsburg. In his match against Ichiya Kumagae. Tilden also was forced to five sets. Wallace F. Johnson, of Philadelphia, played Walter Merrill Hall, of New York, middle-states champion. Best Star Defeated. The leading star of the Australian combination, Gerald L. Patterson, wen* down to defeat at the hands of William M. Johnston. San Francisco, but not until he had electrified a gallery of 8,000 spectator* by the sameness and brilliancy of hi* tennis battle which finally went to the 1915 champion by a flve-*et score of 6—2, 3—6, 6—4, 4-6, while other matches of the afternoon'developed excellent examples of the turf court the Johnston-Patterspn contest was remier. feature and It is doubtful if istoric strip of grass ever held a more ig combat unless it was the famous between Brookes and McLoughlin in ,vis cup matches In 1914. For'two hours the towering Australian and the slight Californian brought Into use every atom of strength and degree of skill in their struggle for supremacy and ao closely were they matched that at the end of the contest Johnston nad won by throe sets to two, twenty-six games to twentythroe, 166 points to 164. The stroke analysis shows fully as close a comparison. Johnston had forty-four wuts to Patterson’s fiftytwo; fifty-three nets to fifty-five; trree double faults to four; fifty-five placements to fifty-three and no service aces to one.

they nessey was defeated. Hennessey showed much better in the city tournament and his exhibitions this week show that ho is a tennis power who is growing stronger ©very hour. The two men are both young. Botn are former ^hortridge high school player* Bastian having graduated and attended Indiana uni verslty one year. Hennessey will return to Shortridge this fall, and Bastian win cn&nge to some eastern institution. - But the singles .are not all that occupied the gallery today. Indiana’s honors are not yet entirely safe. Fritz Bastian. Indianapolis, and Kenneth Simmons, of Butte, Mont., will try to defend Hoosier laurels In he finals of the men’s doubles before the onslaught of Bartel and Hane, of Cleveland. Other Events. Fritz Bastian and Simmons defeated Bob Bastian and Hennessey, both of Indianapolis, 6—1, 6—3, 6—2. The Cleveland duo forced Cottop Koehler and John Wamsley, the Butler twins, to abdicate. 6—4, 3—6, 7—5, 6—3. In the ladles’ singles. Mrs. H. S. Adams, of Indianapolis, today opposed Mrs. J. F. King, of Cleveland, for that title. Mrs. Adams defeated Miss Lucille Sherrltt, of Indianapolis. 6—1. 6—1, In the semi-finals, and Mrs. King defeated Mr*. L Watt Pugh, of Indianapolis, 6—4, 11—9. Bartel. Simmons and lesser lights have bowed before the magic racket of Hennessey. Bastian ha* had an easier time, although the path has not been a straight or smeoth one. It Is a question today as to whether the comparative inactivity has placed Bastian below the game of Hennessey. Indianapolis stands to win the singles crown either way. and has a chance to split with Butte in the doubles and also cop the ladies’ single* Today’s Schedule. . MEN’S SINGLES FINALS. F.

The Treater Case.

L Treater, per-

School

The members present at the organisation meeting were somewhat aroused over the

“ultimatum’’ Issued by A. __

manent secretary of the Igtflana High Athletic Association, who ha« ruled that high school boys will not be allowed to compete in the first annual Junior I. A. A. U. track and field meet Monday and retain

their I. H. 8. A. A, standing.

As one member *ald‘ ”We will meet the thing boldly and set as true sportsmen. Wa will put It up to the boys Monday. We hope that such action may pave the way for future events and have the ruling

entries In the meat, which at the fair ground Monday

stricken out. High school

will be held ■ ■ afternoon at 2 o’clock, will be" warned before competing of the Treotsr ruling and will be given thalr choice of entering or with-

drawing.

It was a general belief about town last night and today that the I. H. S. A. A. tis doing the right thing by this and that within six months or much sooner the adverse ruling wilt bo annuled. While the I. A. A. U. will not fight the l. H. 8. A. A.. It will try to correct that body's feeling, and In this It will be fully backed by ths nation-wide strength of the entire N. A.

A. IT.

The action was termed as a whack at the "solar plexus of thi* organization’’ by Dr. Sputh. Others echoed his expression. “The whole mstter is unfortunate." said Mr. Dallas, in ••ommenting on it from the chair. “We will not fight, but will try to educate Mr. Trester.” He compared the action to the injustice such a ruling by the Intercollegiate Association would'bring about In the east. Will Visit Laporte. Mr. Dallas announced his intention of going to see Trester at Laporte In September. "In a way it is taxation without representation,’’ he declared, and queHttoned the alleged right of the I. H. S. A. A. to control summer activities of boys out of high school. •‘There are 10,000 schoolboys competing in New York." he asserted, "and more than 150 boys. Just such schoolboys, will compete in the national championships at Philadelphia. Mr. Trester does not understand.” That is what the I. H. S. A. A. had to say on its natal day concerning A. L. Trester, self-confessed guardian of Hoosier schoolboys at their play. The first L A. A. U. event will bo held on Monday, Just sixty-six hours after the organization of that body. Some record,

what?

There are almost ninety entries for this meet. Twelve track and field tltlea of the Junior class will be decided. The list embraces entries from every member as well as a number of nonraembers. The events will be held on the half-mile track at the,fair ground and on the green in front of the grand standa. The meet starts at 2 o’clock. Athlatas entered will receive their tickets of admission and instructions at the outer gate on Maple road Monday. So everything is ready. President Dallas went back to the east last night, highly pleased. In fact, every one was pleased. Except, perhaps, an ambitious fellow in Laporte, Ind., and various officials and organizers of the Central A. A. U. In Chicago.
