William Tilden Is Holder of Five Net Titles; After Sixth Critics Believe He’s Due for Fall, However, in National Singles. By HENRY FARRELL, United Fress Sports Editor. NEW YORK. Sept J.—William T. Tilden stands on the books as the greatest tennis player in the world. In the last two years the tali, square shouldered Philadelphian has acquired two British titles, two American titles aud a French title. Starting tomorrow in Philadelphia in the first round of the national singles championship he goes into an international tournament that carries with it an almost clean right to a world's championship. However, court critics who have been following the summer's play predict the champion will do little more than start. Wjlliam Johnston, the fiery- little Californian, teammate of Tilden in two Davis cup victories and twice an American champion, is the choice of the experts for the championship. Through one of those peculiar strokes of the draw, Tilden, Johnston and Vincent Richards, the youthful Fordham star, are in the bottom group of the 108 American, British, Australian and Japanese stars that will compete for the title. That means that one or two of the big three will go out early in the plav. British Woman Golfing Champ Must Take Rest MONTREAL, Queb-c. Sept.

TWIN BILL ON FOR TRIBESMEN Indians Get Chance to Make Up for Defeat hy Senators Wednesday. COLUMBUS, Ohio. Sept. 8— Indian* and Senators were to do battle in a double header here today and It is needless to state that the Hoosiers were out to grab both ends of the pastiming. The Hendrlcksinec were somewhat downhearted last night after that 8-tr-5 defeat handed them by the locals in the series opener yesterday anil they hoped to swing back with a double victory this afternoon. It was the same old trouble that bas been holding the team down all season—failure to hit with men on bases. The Tribe got sixteen hits to the Senator's eleven, yet lost the game. Fifteen Hoosiers were left stranded on the sacks. Rogge ani' Northrop were the opposing raoundsmen, and the latter really had to laugh over his luck in winning in the face of the bombardment he received. The Indians added four more thefts to their huge stolen base t*-sl, Baird, Shinners, Rehg and Cov-ogto* grabbing off the steals. This was a.-out the only feature to the Tribe’s day's work. The Senators got the lead in the third inning, when they scored rour runs, and hey managed to cling to the advantage the remainder of the way. Errors played a part In the scoring of the locals, fiz* misplays being charged against the lnz dians. „ i Dick Burrys, Columbus first sacker, was the day s heavy sticker, a home-run, double and single. Extra bass swats by the Tribe were made by Covington and Schreiber. Schreiber am'. Sicking each had two errors and Kinsella also "booted" one. President-Manager Rickey of the St Louis Cards; Joe Sugden, Card coach, and Scout Billy Doyle of the Detroit Tigers witnessed the game. Tn the fifth the Indians filled the sackq with no one down, but failed to score. Sicking, Klnsella and Dixon failed lu turn to score a man. That’s how well the Tribesmen were hitting with men on base. Marine Sets Record CLEVELAND. Sept. S.-A-new world's record was est.ibli“hed here on the 1.009yard range John W.
