TILDEN’S SKILL TOO MUCH FOR NET OPPONENTS ‘Big BilP Clears Path for Another Title in National Singles Play. DOWNS COAST VETERAN By HENRY FAR RE LI., United Pres* Sport* Editor. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 15.—With “Little Bill" Johnston, Richard Norris Williams and “Vtnnle" Richards faded out of the picture, the face of “Big Bill" Tilden loomed up sharply today under the 1921 tennis crown. Three Easterners, two Californians and two foreigners were to start today In the fifth round of the national singles championship in a series of matches that have become almost a formality attending the coronation of Tilden as king. Gordon Lowe, the ruddy-faced Englishman, who Is almost surprised himself to have gone so far in the tournament, will go against the 100-to-l shot proposition today of trying to beat Tilden in the feature match of the day's card. On the game shown in his defeat yesterday of Billy Johnston, Tilden should not have more than a half-hour's job in removing the last of England’s Davis cup stars from the play. James O. Anderson, the tall Austral'nn who became a dark horse yesterday by defeating Richard Norris Williams and eaaslcg the biggest upset of the tournament, was drawn against Francis T. Hunter, New York, and he appeared to have a fine chance to get into the semifinals. Wallace F. Johnson, Philadelphia, seems sure of a place in the semi-finals tomorrow, as be was drawn with Craig Biddle, Philadelphia, today. The fourth battle of the day will remove another Californian from the tournament as Robert Kinsey and Willis Davis, both from Ban Francisco, were to face each other. Following are scores of Wednesday’s matches in the tennis singles championships : FOURTH ROUND. William T. Tilden, Philadelphia, defeated William M. Johnston, San Francisco, 4-6, 7-5, 6-4, 63. Willis E. Davis, San Francisto, defeated William J. Clothier, Philadelphia. 9-7, 5-7. 14-12, 6-3. i Francis T. Hunter, New York, defeated Frank T. Anderson, New York, 6-3, 6-3. 6-1. T. A.

BUTLER SQUAD IN HARD DRILL Pat Page Sends Forty Men Through Real Work-outs Twice a Day. About forty men who answered Tat Page's first football call last Saturday were put through the hardest work-out of week yesterday and It, showed that the strenuous practice held by the Butler mentor since the first call is fast rounding the candidates into shape as an organized squad. Both morning and afternoon work outs have been indulged in. the closing work of each day being a full hour scrimmage in which every candidate is allowed to participate. The material nt Page's disposal is the most promising that has answered a Butler football call in many a day. Next week's woik-outs are expected to se eenough men in football togs to comprise five full elevens. All of last year's regular back field men are working out with one exception. Graham, half bank, has entered Northwestern. Many gaps have been left in the line, however, but from the large number of line candidates at the coach's disposal the plugging of these holes does not look like an Impossible job. Captain Kiser, full back, and McClaflin. half back, are on band, as Is slso Quarter back Brown. In addition to these men, back field stars of known ability are listed among the pew men. Chief of these is Nig Woods u Greenfield, whose punting is the heat shown in the early practices and who teems to be a clever open field runner. There is also Hal Griggs, star half back on the Tech eleven last year: Updegraf. also from Tech; E. Har-im-gon. from Manual, and Fields, a Butler player of several years ago, who has returned to school. Phil Brown, last year's captain, is out for his old Job at tackle. Hungate, also n tackle, and the biggest man In the Butler line last year, is also on deck. Herrv Duttenhaver. regarded last year as oue of the best college centers in the State, was one of the first to report, and is in great condition. His brother, Geln, is making a strong bid for a back fiedl Job. Dwight Kiser, brother of the captain, is trying out for guard again. Leslie and Middlesworth, two of the four men who last year alternated at end, are back again. Candidates for the line abound among the new men who have reported, but for the most part they are out-of-town men and their ability is not so well known as the new men reporting for the back field. Enough is known of them, however, to warrant the staleinent that the veterans of last year's line will have no easy task in retaining their old Jobs this fall.

New Candidates at Wabash Learn What Grid Training Means . —7 Feet Are Dragging Under Stiff Pace, but They Gamely Stick It Out. CRAWFORDSVILLE. Ind . Sept. 15 With two-a-day practice drills the order in the Wanash football camp until the opening of classes next week, the new candidates for the Scarlet machine are learning what real college grid work means. Some of the youths who reported here short of wind have had their feet dragging as a result of the strenuous pace set by Coach Vaughan, but they are trying to bear up bravely under the pressure. No accurate line has been obtained on the freshmen and no cuts in the squad have been made. The strong points and the weak points will be brought out later when scrimmage work starts, and until that time no effort will be made to separate, the strong from the less talented. One thing is certain, however, and that is that the 1921 squad is composed of a pack of determined grid warriors and it is not going to beau easy matter for any player to earn a position without putting up a terrific struggle for the honor. From the viewpoint of the onlooker the prospects appear fair at this stage. Coach Vaughan is confident, of course, but he is not boasting of the outlook and will prepare for each game as It presents itself. Vaughan did not start practice as early as the Fourth of July, but he is not worried. He called the Scarlet warriors together for the first time Monday, and he believes with steady, earnest work the meu will be able to round into just as good form as they would have reached had they been asked to forfeit half the summer vacation for the purpose. As the students trickle in the old Wabash spirit is growing and spreading and the boys who do the cheering apparently are looking forward to a big season of victories and yellfests.
