FRANCE’S “WONDER GIRL’ OF COURTS DEPARTS FOR STATES

BY JACK YEIOCK, International News Sports Editor. NEW YORK, July 80.—France's "won der girl” of tho tennis courts soon will be seen In action on this side of the Atlantic. Mile. Suaanne Lenglen, international woman's tennis singles champion, was scheduled to sail from France today to compete In our National championships and a series of exhibition matches for the benefit of devastated France. The coming of Mile Lenglen is of unusual interest. Her mission on this side of the ocean is as big as was that of Georges Carpentier. Carpentier came to this contry In an attempt to conquer one 'opponent in 6port. Mile. Leglen comes to cpmpete against a score of the best women tenuis players In the country, and her task will not he light by any means. Mrs. Molla Bjurstedt Mallory, holder of the national singles championship, is expected to head the list of American stars who will dispute Mile. Lenglen's attempts to win the title. Mrs. Mallory Is still in Europe, but i expected to return nere In plenty of time for the women’s national championship tourney at Forest Hills Aug. 15. In addition there will be Mrs. May Sutton Bundy-. Miss Mary Browne and Miss Helen Wills, youthful San Francisco star; Miss Bdith Sigouruejr. Mrs. Marion Zinderstein Jessup and Mrs. Ben-

Brown Makes Change in State Fair Racing Card; Big Purses This Season

Secretary I. Newt Brown of the State board of agriculture has announced a change of events for trotters on the State fair racing card, moving the 2:14 trot back from Monday to Thursday and advancing the 2:12 trot up to Monday from Thursday to balance the card Os the eighteen races listed sixteen are for purses of SI,OOO each, the two exceptions being the classes for 3 year old 2:25 trotters and the S year-old 2:15 pacers, which will race for S7OO each. Labor day, the opening day, has classes for 2:22 and 2:12 trotters and 2:17 and 2:23 pacers. For Tuesday classes for 2:09 and 2:20 trotters and 2.08 and 2:14 pacers are on. On Wednesday's program appear events for 2:17 and 2:24 trotters. 2:12 and 2:18 pacers. The first extreme speed class shows on Thursday in the 2.05 trot, which, with the 2:14 and 2:lfi trots and the 2:20 pace, comprise the card. Tbe concluding day has a free-for-all and the two juvenile events. Provisions which wpre instituted by the late Secretary Keq4>edy are apparent on the program, prominent among which is that for 3 per cen\entrance, with no deductions made from money winners. Tbe late secretary was a contender for lower entrance fees and the three-heat plan, both Ideas of which were incorporated in late State fair race cards. The change in the expenses to horsemen is easy to see In events such as are given at the fsir. with $1 000 purses under the plan that prevailed until recently at nearly Rll fairs, the fee being 5 per cent, the torsemen would be~o®mpeUed to pay SJO to start, and in case of winning money, there were fifty shore taken from the gross of his winnings. Under the pres ent plan a payment of -S."O is all that Is required. The local meeting will have some Ira portant meetings to clash with in dates. The Connecticut fair, in the East, heln at Hartford. Conn., has Grand Circuit membership, but will have little effect on the stables usually coming here. How, e'er, in the West the ltig Minnesota State fair is on the same dates, also the Michigan State fair at Detroit, and the Nebraska State fair at Lincoln. , Thus, the chances for large fields are not as good as with some weeks, either preceding or following.

Baseball fans who heard several days ago the Intimate secret* of baseball playera’ salaries, had to lean forward to catch the softly spoken ages given by their former idols.

Hitchens wers slated to play Miss Wagner and Mias Clare Caaiell In the final round today. With the strongest elements of her game, the close range and swift position play, spoiled by wet courts, Miss Browne yesterday gave much to her rival. This repeatedly was demonstrated in the rallies when Mias Browne often remained In deep court rather than risk a twisted ankle or a fall by sudden shift to cloae range attack. When settled Into her game she completely mastered Mrs. Bundy at the task of putting across winning shots. Mias Browne's total of place merit* for the three acts was forty to twenty-one for Mrs. Bundy.

MAY BACK WILSON STAND. CHICAGO, July 30— Replying to a query regarding the stand to be taken by the Wisconsin boxing commission on the Wilson-Downey mixup at Cleveland, Walter H. Liginger. chairman of the board, replied as follows. "The Wisconsin boxing '''commission hag not given tho Wilaon-Downey affair at Cleveland any consideration as yet, nor will it unless requested to do so. As soon an an official report of tbe affair is available I will submit the matter to the members of the National Boxing Association Wisconsin will abide by the decision of the national association. “Unofficially I might say that the de ciston of a referee should be final, and that a boxing commission cannot inter sere unless the boxing regulations or law of the Stare In which the contest is held have been violated. “If reports relative to the contest are true the Cleveland commission showed weakness by allowing Wilson to dictate to them in appointing the referee. "The Wlaconsin coramlsaion firmly oilforces Its rule relative to compelling boxers to post a forfeit of at least SI,OOO for a contest of championship caliber. If this had been done Wilson or his manager would baye hesitated before refusing t.> go through "If it was stipulated In the Wilson contract that h cculd elect tbe referee, then the commission should have settled the question at least three days before thp contest in order to protect the pub lie. The Wisconsin commission would not r-eognize any contract allowing the box er to name the referee."

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, JULY 30, 1921.

PONGOJOEAND HIS VETS HERE

Indians Have Hopes of Doing Better Now That Slugging Blues Are Gone.

Joe Cantillon and bia mixture of oldtimers and youngsters were here today to open a big round of action with the Indians at Washington Park. The Millers are always a drawing card here because of the presence of the famous Pongo and a few other vet players who have been making the circuit of the association for years. The Millers are- right on the heel* of the Louisville Colonels Jn the A. A. race and they are a hard club to defeat. They are always doing something, mostly .flitting the “apple,” and the Indians are facing a real task in opposing the bat wielders from the North. If it wasn’t for lhat double defeat at the hands of the K. C. Blues yesterday the fans would feel a* though their Tribesmen were back on their tect, but the pitching was so wabbly in the two battles that uncertainty still exists regarding the ability of the Hoosiers to emerge from the rut without new assitsanoo. This new assistance has been promised again by the Giants and Reds through John McGraw and Garry Herrmann. Manager Hendricks conferred with both in Cincinnati yesterday and today he expressed the view that he actually believed something would come off shortly that would help save the situation here. If Henline is forced to Join the Pbillics tbe Indians must obtain another catcher. As for the Tribe pitching, it is apparent that half of the staff has caved in. In yesterday's double header the Blues won, 9 to 7 and 11 to 5 In both contests the Indians got away to swell leads and played like champions In the later innings of both games, however, the Tribe pitchers weakened and the Blues chased over sufficient runs to win. Bunny Brief, Kansas City first sacker, got his twenty second and twenty third home runs of the season during the ifternoon’s pastlming. In the first game he hit over the right-centerfleld fence and in the second fracas he hoisted the b'.ll over the left field fence. Covington and Good alsi hit homers. Hank Schreiber was the Tribe’s hitting star, with three hits the first contest and four In the second. Henline was prominent in the closing battle with a tripie and double. It certainly was a tough twin bill to lose, after the Indians got such brilllunt starts in each, but it takes pitching of a htgber brand than was displayed yes terdsv to hold hack clubs like the slug ging Blues.

MANAGER TRIS NOT WORRYING OVER MISHAPS Speaker and Mates Wholly, Confident as Big Series With Yanks Starts. SAYS HE’S FORTIFIED By HENRY FARRELL. United Press Sports Editor. NEW YORK, July 30. —There may be some concern out in Ohio about the Cleveland Indians, but they are no worried frowns on the faces of Chief Tris Speaker and his tribe. The world’s champions, here for a “crpocial series” that might decide the pennant in the long run, are showing no more concern than if they were to meet the Athletics in an exhibition game. “How about the Indians? MTell, we’re still on top and I don’t know as any of the boys are figuring on straying very far from there,” Tris Speaker said today. “We’re not thinking we’re too good, however. We know we have a, tough fight on our hands and that's wliflt we like. It takes a close, tight race to keep up on our toes, especially In this hot weather. We went through the same thing last year and we’re kind of used to It by this time. ‘Bad luck? Well, we haven't had the best of the breaks, but it all comes to a ball club. In a long season every ♦cam runs into accidents It's impossible to avoid them when nine men are on the field willing to take any kind of a chance to win “I don't make a practice of winning pennants in hotel lobbies It’s a bad habit to get into. All championships are decided on the field. We’re all optimistic, however, and'we would not be a ball cluh if we didn’t think we could win. “The fans around the circuit have been saying that our pitchers have been a great disappointment this season, but they’re winning games, and that’s all that is necessary. Bagby, who hasn’t been in the best of scape, is showing signs of coming around as well as the rest of the staff. I think we are well fortified to go through the latl hard stretch. Since we had to have some accident perhaps it is best we ran Into them early In the race.” Williams vs. Johnston for Longwood Net Title BOSTON. July SO—R. N. Williams of Boston Friday defeated Zenso Shimizu, the Japanese star, 6-3, 7 5 and 8-4 in the final round of the Longwood bowl singles tennis tournament, at the Chestnut Hill courts. Williams was to meet William M. Johnston of California in the challenge round today. Williams’ tennis in the first and third se*s yesterday was spectacular. At the net ho was deadly with his overhead mashes and his volleys from mid-court were clean and decisive. From the baseline he was steady and the pace he put on tbe bill prevented Shimidzu from making his severe forehand drives effective. Williams had such command of his strokes that he placed the ball at will. MThen Shimidzu camped back of his base line in his efforts to stroke his adversary’s deep placements. Williams wonld shift his attack aud drop the ball gently i over the net. In 'he three sets Williams outseored Shimidzu on earned points by a wide margin. His earned point total reached 55. while the Japanese had only 10 placements to his credit and no service acea.
