July 10.—Resolute, America’s cup defender, will sail the second race of the series tomorrow against Shamrock IV, officials of the New York Yacht club announced today. The broken throat halyard, which canted Resolute to withdraw from the first race yesterday with an almost sure Victory in her grasp, was being repaired today. , TIPTON RELECTANT, BET Y ANKS INSIST. Displaying sportsmanship characteristic of him. Sir Thomas Lipton. owner of the winning sloop, was reluctant to take credit for a victory won on which he termed a fluke. The New York Yacht club refused to consider such a protest. Y.'hen it was pointed out that the first Shamrock was forced to withdraw by an accident In the race against the Columbia in 1599, the Irish baronet agm?d to accept the rac* as a victory for his green cup bjinter. Charles Francis Adams, skipper of Resolute, explained the accident which caused him to lose at the fifteen-mile turning point of the thirty-mile race when he had nearly a five-minute lead over the challenger. "The throat halyard parted at the winch.” he siid, "the gaff collapsed and British Not Satisfied With Victory by Fluke LONDOS, July 16.—Satisfaction throughout Great Britain with the ■victory of Shamrock IV. in the first of the America’s cup races, was tempered today by the fact that Upton's challenger won the match by a fluke. Interest In the yacht race was keener than In any international sporting event of recent history. the mainsail fell. We examined the break and when it was found that repairs were impossible we withdrew and summoned a tender to tow us in." WEATHER OF ALL BRANDS FIRST DAY. The first battle for the cup yesterday was discouraging in many ways. The we ther was a medley of squalls, rain, thunder showers, sunshine, calm and blows. Adams outgeneraled Skipper Burton and got away more than a minute aehad of the Lipton yacht. The defender increased the distance and held it through verylng weather conditions until near the halfway mark, when the race had developed into a drifting match, with the uefender about aix minutes ahead on actual time and six minutes and forty seconds aheul on the time allowance. . Juat as Resolute started the turn around Corsair, J. P. Morgan's yacht, which was acting as a marker, her main sail fell. The challenger was thus given a lead and was made sure of victory, if she could finish the second half of the race within three hours. This the Shamrock proeeded to do without effort. Resolute sacrificed stability for speed. She gambled, so to apeak, and lost. She will gamble in each of the following races. ' It the Resolute cracked yesterday with hardly more than a breath of wind filling her sails, her chances In a twenty or thirty-knot blow, which kicks up often around Sandy Hook, does not make Americans optimistic of keeping the cup in Uncle Sam’s locker. Experts today were inclined to criticize the New York Yacht club for its judgment In choosing Resolute over Vanitie to defend the cup. The accident was the fourth major mishap that has befallen Resolute since she started her trial races with Vanitie. Others claim that it was mishandling that ran the defender into her accident. Resolute Still Rated Even Money Proposition, Despite Loss First Day By JACK VEIOCK. International News Sports Editor. NEW YORK. July 16—The victory ikf Shamrock IV In the first race against the Resolute was a rather hollow affair. Sir Thomas, the genial Irish baronet, looks at it that way today, and while the crew of the challenger Is spbynxlike, they realize that they have thclt work cut out for them If they are to continue winning. "X would mm-h rather not accept a victory due to an accident,” said Lipton. "I would willingly agree not to count the race If they want it that way.” Such is the sportsmanship of the veteran yachtsman from Ireland. The race, however, is already “counted.” The rules which govern the International contest are plain. Resolute was beaten because she was unable to continue the race after turning the ftfteeumlle mark, and she acknowledged defeat when she signaled for a tow. The outcome of the first contest had little influence on the betting, such as it has been. Resolute Is still as good us an even money proposition and many believe she will succeed in defending the cup.
THIS EXPERT FAVORS SHAMROCK
BY T. D. SCOTT. Noted Yacht Expert. XEW YORK. July 16 —The tlctory of Shamrock IV over Resolute In the first race for America's cup yesterday is generally regarded ns a “fluke victory," but it should not be In my opinion. By analysis it would seem that it W3s a victory of a sloop of superior construction over a too finely rigged yacht. That much was strikingly evident and It bears out the opinion formed during the trial races when Resolute had three serious mishaps that she was only a light weather boat and lacked strength. Beyond proving that she Is “better pnt up” the I4pton challenger had little opportunity of showing her other virtues. There was not enough air moving for the most part to heel either sloop over. Had not Capt. Burton momentarily lost his bearings in the fog which descended jnst as the boats crossed the line, it is possible that the green challenger would have showed her stern to the defender from the starting line to the tnrn instead of the Resolute being a quarter of a mile ahead, as was the case when her throat halyards parted, bringing her main sail topoUhg to the deck. Wi|h barely a breath of wind, Sham- <

NEW YORK. July 16. A yachting editor works only about once in seventeen years, but when he works he works. He’s a literary earthquake. You know mo6t of the scribes were saps. The only boats most of them had ever seen were the chute boats at Coney island. We scooted down the bay towards Sandy Hook and ran right up to the Shamrock. Pretty little tiling. Pea green hull and crew all in white. Oh, pretty, pretty! About a mile away towards the shore was the Resolute with hull painted white and looking like a toy boat. On our boat only one guy had snakecure and had more birds after him than Nlckey Arnstein ever had.
Johnston Wins Net Match From English Star in Five Sets American Pushed to Limit to Defeat Parke in Davis Cup Play. TILDEN ALSO WINS. WIMBLEDON, Eng., July 16.—William T.

Johnston, American tennis singles champion, today defeated J. C. Parke. 6-4, 6-4, 2-6 3-6, 6-2 In the Davis cup competition between the American and English teams.

Big League Stuff Babe Ruth's homer in the eleventh inning yesterday tied his 1919 record and broke a tic score, giving the Yanks the victory over the Browns. Sherrod Smith stepped into the breach when Marqnard faltered and the Dodgers annexed another game at Chicago. The Dodgers have won eighteen out of the last twenty games. The hitting of Tris Speaker and Ray Chapman paved the way for Cleveland s victory over the Athletics. Timely hitting gave the Phillies the edge over the lieds. Lee, a Pirate pinch hitter, drove Charley Grin- m home with the rviu that gave Pittsburg a clean sweep against the Braves. The Boston Red Sox have trailed Tnflelder M.ller und Cat her Smith to the Pittsfield club of the Eastern league for Second Baseman Brady. Norman Glaser, a righf-handeil pitcher, has been purchased by the Detroit American league club from Rocky Mountain, N. C.. of the Virginia State league. Glaser was one of the leading sandlot pitchers here last year. He will report to Detroit about Aug. 15. 9 ■- ■ Tv. o new outfielders have been signed bv the Philadelphia American league club. They are Frank Walker, formerly with Detroit, who was bought from the Rocky Mount club of the Y'l.ginla league, and Johnson, from the Worcester club of the Eastern league. Rube Yarrlson, pitchet, was released to the Rocky Mount club in part payment for Walker. It Is understood. It Is said that the Philadelphia club paid $7,50u cash for Walker, i fits s the largest sum ever paid for a Virginia league player. Walker was rated as a star outfielder In the circuit and hit for better than .4U* during the first half of the present season.

rock actually overhauled and passed the Resolute within a few second# after the white sloop had slid over tiu- starting line less than a half a minjute ahead of the Lipton yacht. PICTURE SHOWS SHAMROCK AHEAD. This phase of the race was unseen by ali but one observing boat, which obtained a photograph .showing the challenger ahead of the defender. Adams headed the Resolute seaward and with clever tack-splitting scooped up the spasmodic breezes which the Shamrock missed. This drew the Resolute ahead and Jn this position she was found when the fog lifted. It is significant that the moment the breeze freshened sufficiently to heel the yachts over on racing lines. Resolute's rigging failed to stand the slight strain, whereas Shamrock bent easily to it and spurted ahead rapidly, cutting down the distance between the two before the defender’s halyard snapped. \ On the homeward reach, Shamrock showed her mettle. In the lightest or breezes without breaking out her spin' naker bftUoon Jibs, she covered the fif-teen-ml!*, last half lc less than one and one-tnlf hours.

The experts told us that the Shamrock "broke out” with her jib topsail. It’s a great game, that yachting. They say it’s the real sport of kings. It's tough tlie kings are dying out so fast. We were trailing the yachts and wondering who was ahead. They looked to be on even terms, but the experts told us to the second how far the Shamrock was behind. It’s a gift. As the scribes were putting on the feedbag, thn gaff of the Resolute broke. The gaff Is the thing—it’s that better look It up in a book. Pictures speak louder than words. Yesterday I was a yachting editor. Climbed out of the hay at 6 a. m., put on the feed bag in a bum dump, grabbed the stilt line down to the Battery and boarded the old newspaper tug at 8 o’clock in a werry wet rainstorm.

m You%m\ & J that's BaBE Cvjth's ) 29 I? HOME RvJMJ NEW YORK, July 16.-— Babe Ruth, tie Yankee home run king, no doubt will make the greatest home run record of baseball history this season. The Nwaikltig, with a full circuit clout In the elWenth Inning yesterday, beat the St. Louis Browns and equaled Ids 1919 record of twenty-nine In a season. This tlVne last year he had made only eleven of' his twenty-nine slams. Ills club has about seventy more games to piny In the 1920 schedule, and that he w 111 boost his total to forty or more seems to be a certainty.
Rotarians Continue ‘Winning Streak* in Fray With Optimists Manager Pierson's Nine Stages Another Hot Finish in 2423 Skirmish. When in the course of human events two ball clubs pitch into their work sc earnestly that they don’t know whether the score is bananas or peanuts when , the ninth round opens, it is time for the world to get acquainted with the fact that those nine tnen on one side and nine men on the other have staged a diamond act full of a little bit of everything, with an extra shot of runs, hits, errors and fun thrown in for good measure, 'That's what happened at Washington park yesterday when the Rotarians and Optimists "Inshed for the championship of personal pride and the Rotarians won, 24 to 23. The meroberi of both clubs circled the sacks so many times in eight Innings that each and every one was so exhausted that the general impression was that the score was 23 to 22 in favor of the Optimists, and therein lies the Joke, The score actually was tied in a 23 to 23 knot, an ! it 'apt. Walker hadn’t scared a couple of hits and R run out of hls Rotarians In the curtain-dropper tiie Optimists would have won, even though behind. Grossman, the first Botarlan up In the ninth, walked and refused to move bevond the hot corner when Murr poled out one of those kind that Babe Ruth gets oodlin of dough for. Murr went to second on the hit and when Foley crashed one to deen center, Grossman trotted home with the winning run. The ninth Inning 23-to 22 Idea came through an error of the watchers at the big si oreboard. They were looking from the distance and missed one run regis tered by the Rotarians Ui the fourth frame. A! Feenev knows his proper position on a basketball or football team, but be had to play three postlons before be discovered that Ue was a great shortstopper. They wouldn’t let Sargent take his base when he declared he had been hit by a pitched hall in (he second and ao he struck out. figuring -evidently that it was useless to try to get on base.

July 16.—Followers of the leading Saints today were demanding that Kelley’s outfit step out this afternon and put a sinker in the galloping Hoosiers.

The Saints have had such an easy romp through the American association that little attention has been given tlie recent record of the Indianapolis club, but after seeing the Hoosiers battle and win yesterday everyone here Is convinced that there Is something to the Tribe spurt after all. Therefore, the second contest of the series this afternoon was expected to see plenty of thrills. Gnvet was slated to perform for the Indians with Charlie

Harry*g Editorial Harry Says:— MY CARDS ARE ON THE TABLE Clothing “Sales” are as thick as skeeters around a pair of open-work socks on a summer vacation. Every which way you turn you bump into a “sale” of some kind or another. Men’s suits are being offered at a fourth off, a third off and any old amount off. But, men, the question is, How much was ON in the first place and what are the suits Yvorth at present prices? I don’t blame a man for looking into such glittering promises, but I do blame him for being hooked to slaughter. If I can’t prove to you by a big margin that I can save you big money on high-grade suits, against any “sale” price in Indianapolis, I’ll be the first to advise you to go where you think you can do better.
