JOHNSTON GETS BIG ATTENTION IN NET RANKS Vet Tennis Star Looks Like Best Bet of Season Among Leaders. CUP CHOICE AWAITED By JACK VEIOCK. International Xw Sport* Editor. NEW TORK, Aug. 12.—Billy Johnston, veteran California net star, and erstwhile national champion, looks like the best bet of the season among American tennis players. Stringing along close to Johnston and showing form that equals his brilliance In championship ways. 1 R. Norris Williams. who was scheduled to clash with the Californian in the final at Senbrtght today. These two players, if the form they have shown in the big Eastern invitation classics to date can be taken as a criterion. will be the king pins of the American Davis ctip team. The committee selected by the United States Lawn Tennis Association to name the defending team was slated to announce its selection today and it was a practical certainty that Johnston and Wll'tami wonld be named, together with William T. Tilden and Watson M. Washburn. Voting Vincent Richards, who recently scored such a brilliant victory over Tilden and later lowered Williams' colors, lost his chance to make the Davis cup team through defeat at the hands of the astonishing Johnston at Seabrigbt yesterday. With the woman's national championship scheduled for Forest Hills next week, the coming of Mile. Lenglen and the winding up of the Davis cup ties just in the offing, tennis will bid for the center of the sport stage daring the remainder of August and most of September. The men's national doubles and boys and Juniors' singles are scheduled for Longworth Sept. 2 and the men's national singles at Philadelohia Sept 9 Asa majority of foreign players here for Davis cnp ties will remain over, the entry list in the national singles will be the most imposing and the most colorful from an international point in the history of the event

TENDLER-DU XDEE BOUT FLAWED NEW TORK. Aug. 12. —Phil Classman, manager of I.ew Tendler. had a long taik with Tex Rickard at Madison Square Carden today over the prospect of sending his southpaw walloper in for a twelve-round bout with Johnny Dundee at his arena in Jersey City, on Labor day. It Is the intention of Rickard to stage a big double bill tbe same day that Johnny Wilson and Bryan Downey start shooting In their return match for the middleweight championship. Rickard also discussed the prospect of a Leonard-Tendler match for his arena An Jersey City some time late in September. It is not likely that Leonard will be ready to meet Tendler so soon. Glassman toM Rickard that Tendler was ready to meet any man In his division and under the circumstances it is more than probable that the Dundee-Teudler match is assured for the same date as the Downfey-Wilson struggle. Another match Rickard has In mind is a fifteen-round bout at Madison Square Carden between Charley White, the Chicago lightweight, aud Tendler. some time fa October. Tendler has never fought in New York and Tex believes tbe Quaker southpaw would prove quite an attraction. While Leonard is still resting up here, there is a persistent rumor, despite all denials to the contrary, that somethin? other than Benny's busted hand was responsible for the cancellation of the tight with Tendler.

Yank Women Net Stars Get Bad Breaks in Draw for Forest Hills Event

NEW YORK, Aug. 12—Ameri'-an girls soetn to have Incurred the enmity of the fates. Luck, as manifested In the draw, practically ruined America's chances for the British golf title when Miss Alexa Stirling, America's hope, was drawn in the first round against the great British woman. Miss Cecil Leitcb. In tbe draw for the national tennis classic which starts Monday at Forest Hills, two of tiie very best players in America, both possessing a chance against Mile Suzanne Lengten. are practically sura to go out In the first round before they get a chance to get started. Mrs. Molla BJurstedt Mallory, American national champion, was drawn with Mrs Marlon Zlnderstein .Tossup, who as No. 2 in last year’s ranking, was next best to the champion.

The second blow came when Miss Eleanor Goss, who ranked No. 5 last year and whose game this year has been sensational. will he drawn with Mile. Lenglen. The American has a chance to de feat the French girl, of course, but that chance In the first round is very slim. The third blow will come in the second round when Mrs Mallory and Mile.

FOUR BATTLE IT OUT FOR TITLE IN STATE GOLF MEET

SOUTH BEND, Ind., Aug. 12.—Johnny Simpson of Indianapolis and Vincennes aud Baxter Sparks of Terre Haute, oldtime rivals in golf, and both picked generally as warm contenders In the State championship play, met here today in a 36-hole match in the State golf tournament semi-finals. The winner of this match is generally selected as the man who will finally win the championship, as there does not seem to be golfers In the other match in the semi-finals good enough for either of them. , . , , The other match in the semi finals is Jack Bixler of Lafayette and Dan Sanders of South Bend. Play yesterday over a course slower than it has been any day during the tournnment brought some surprises. The slow condition of the course made it imperative that some good golf be shot and the men shooting good golf had little difficulty In getting a good lead on tbeir opponents. The form of Simpson yesterday indicates that if he can keep it up. Sparks, or any of the others will have a tough time to beat him today or tomorrow. Simpson had Van Landingham as an opponent in the third round and so far was he ahead of Van Landingham at the end of the eighteenth hole that Van quit, hopelessly defeated, his object being to give Simpson, who is suffering with an Injured back, opportunity to rest up for today's contests. Baxter Sparks, of Terre Haute and Princeton University, showed Elmore of South Bend what real shooting is. Elmore is Ihe young, loquacious chap who

came from behind and defeated Sielken of Riverside. It had begun to look as if Elmore, a golfar of but three years' experience, might be the dark horse of the parade. But against Sparks, who is a pupil of Jim Barnes, national open champion, he bad little chance. At the finish of the eighteen hole, when the dinner bells were ringing, Elmore was seven down. The afternoon's play was a mere formality, with Sparks taking things easy. Sparks won six straight holes from Elmore. The final score was Sparks, 9 and 8. Young Jack Bixier of Lafayette, one of the coming golfers of the younger set, gave the veteran Brownie Vance of Kokomo, a sweet snrprise. In the morning round, Vance was missing his putts, while Bixler was making his and when they adjourned for lunch. Bixler was four up, a lead which is generally qonsidered safe enough arnoiig golfers of equal ability. The match ended, Bixler 4 up over Vance. The other match of the third round which attracted attention was the Tuite Sanders contest. Tuite comes from the Highland Club and has attained great golf precision in his shots in the five years he had been'indulging in the game. Tuite was originally trained at So uh Grove, but for the last few years lias been registering from Highland. Sanders comes from Bend. lie is a Harvard student a n is on the wrestling team at college. He bits a mighty long ball, as does Tuite. bJt Sanders was out driving the Indi mat olis man, who was uot striving for distance.

I The 1922 tournament is scheduled for French Lick. With no invitation coming from aDy club with an 18-ho!e course, the officials of the Indiana Golf Association wired Tom Taggart. .Tr., of French Lick, and suggested that If he would invite the j next to French Lick, he I would’delight the golfers of Indiana. The i telegram of invitation came along and j the golfers were happy. The new course j at French Lick, over which the 1922 play | will be held, Is uot entirely finished now, but by next year it will be in perfect shape. Anew clubhouse is being built there now which will be one of the most attractive in the country, over which the biggest tournaments, like the national amateur and national open, will he held occasionally, it is believed. The gait that Simpson was going against Van Landingba’m may be measured by his score and the score itself j does not completely measure his effective- ! ness, for two puts were taken on holes | that in some Instances might have been made In one putt, had it been ecessarv. i Simpson was playing safety first on the green always. His card for the eighteen holes, after which Van Landingham tossed a towel in the ring, follows: Out 4 4 5 4 5 4 4 5 4-39 In 3454434 4 5—36—75 ! Dave Lockhart of Riverside has come ; along with a suggestion for the benefit of the caddies at the State tournament which has been put up to the State Golf Asso, ; oiatjon as part of the business of the an- : nual State tournament. Daddies are nec- ! essar.v at the State tournament. On the course on which the tournament is held there are never enough trained caddies. Tt has 1 een the practice of the golfers to take caddies from their home courses and ; some of the caddies have come along on their own account, hoping to get sufficient employment to give them a week's fun. Sometimes, however, caddies have been overlooked and they have been able to shift for themselves. At this tourna- ! ment Lockhart found four of them not : properly cared for and took it upon himself to find qnarters for them. His sugj gestton. which is a mighty good one. puts ; It up to the State association to organize the caddie supply and to provide comfortable and safe quarters for these boys In homes which are ppen to thorn. The State tournament here is another argument for the standardization of the rules in golf. Unices the golf rules are followed exactly and religiously and un- | less all players take penalties alike, there is to be all sorts of arguments after matches are over—not perhaps by the players themselves, but by friends of the players. For Instance. Bobby Resener was really put out of the tournament by (Uontlnned on I'age Eleven.)

The Hens are only a few points back of the Hooslers in the A. A. standing and they still carry enough punch to make things interesting for any team In the league.

Pug Cavet was expected to hurl tha series opener this afternoon and, as tha tall southpaw has had plenty of rest, the fans were confident he would deliver If called on for duty.
