Juniors and Boys to Compete for State Net Titles in Match Play Next Week

PAIRINGS TO BE MADE TONIGHT IN E EVENT Stars in Entry List Assure Fast Matches in Both Classes. ORME DEFENDS TITLE Competition Planned to Last Through Week With Finals on Saturday. Entries close at 6 p. m. Saturday and drawings will be made at the Columbia Club for the State junior and boys’ tennis tournament to start Monday on the enurts of the Indianapolis Tennis Association, Arsenal Technical grounds. It is planned to hold the tourney throughout the week with the finals coming on Saturday. Friday evening the entry list included seventeen junior entrants and twenty-three boys, making a total of forty in the two classes. A number of out-of-town players are in the competition. Interesting matches are looked for in both the boys’ and junior events. All of the boys who made marks for themselves in the late open tourney held in connection with the national clay court championships will be in the fight for the State boys’ title. Von Burg Entered Harry Von Burg, who went to the semi-finals in the open tourney and showed himself a real tournament player, will be in the meet. Bud Markey, whom Tilden complimented on his play, along with Christena, Hadley, Retmier and others make up a classy field. The winner must play great tennis to wade through the competition that is almost certain to be offered. The boy players from out of town are unknown quantities and a dark horse may be lurking in one of their number. Hence Orme, Jr., will have a task cut out for him in defending his title of Junior champ of the State. Os the Junior field Sagalowsky, who has graduated from the boys’ class will probably cause a great deal of trouble. Guy Dixon, Sag’s partner from Shortridge, is also among the entries: There are three players from Terre Haute one from Franklin and one from Richmond. The Entries The list of junior entries up to date Is as follows: Keith King, Richmond; James Stockton, Terre Haute; William Dorgan, Terre Haute; Paul Seidensticker, Terre Haute; Henry Owens, Franklin; Lawrence Bradley, Carl Turpin, Guy Dixon, Nathan Davis, Frank J. Roth, Rhae Faust, Irwin P. Egan. Hugh M. Mason, Julius Sagalowsky, W. Richards, C. Stegemier, Hence Orme, Jr. The boys’ entries are as follows: Phillip Bleakney and Philip McKown, Greenfield: B. G. Trauter, Franklin: Murphy Chamnes, Galveston; Herbert Pierce and Boland Lane. Richmond: Frank Schmedel, James Woods, Ralph Byrum, Victor McGuire. Dwight Shaw, Paul Shumaker, Harry Von Burg, Fred Hadley, Charles Retmier, Manson Brafford, K. Christena, Bud Markey, Austin Carrington, James Ravenscroft, George Newton, Jr., D. S.

VETERAN LOCAL PITCHER SHINES IN TIGER DRIVE

By EDDIE ASH Detroit beat Boston, 2 to 0, in Detroit Friday. Dauss pitched for the Tigers. Yes. the same George Dauss who got his start on Indianapolis amateur lots and at Manual Training High School. It was about seventeen years ago that Georse was an Indianapolis high school lad and here he is still twirling shut-out ball in the big leagues. Quite a feat, that. A dozen seasons Dauss has been a member of the Tiger staff and lately he has been showing the stuff that made him famous in his early years in the major leagues. One of Cobb's Dependables Apparently Dauss has swung into the new life injected into the Detroit team and it looks like another big season for George. One of Ty Cobb's mainstays despite his long, hard service in the Johnson loop and his return to form recently has brought joy to the hearts of the Tiger followers. Cobb’s outfit is in third place and playing consistent every-day ball. It has established Itself as a candidate for the pennant. It has the batting strength, is formidable in the field and, with the pitching showing improvement, it has better than an outside chance to win. A big shock to the experts it would be if the Tigers cop. It is a team to be feared by the St. Louis and New York clubs. The season has quite a distance to go and the Tigers seem to be growing stronger. George Dauss, veteran though he is, is in the midst of the Tiger effort. Jack Hendricks’ Indians had that grand and glorious feeling Friday night. They chased the jinx for a day and downed the Brewers, 8 to 5. It was a ball game filled with excitement. It stretched out for more than two hours, but it was worth the time for the fans because the home club won. Let us hope the jinx was chased over to the Saints’ camp. It can do a little damage there that would be appreciated by seven clubs In the league. Timely hitting and a few walks won for the Indians Friday. A cluster of four runs in the sixth practically decided the contest. Bob Clark hurled for the visitors and he was lucky that he didn’t get a more severe beating. Cavet twirled seven and one-third innings for the Tribe and Petty went the remainder of the route. Myaft Swings His Mask Extra thrills were added in the fifth inning when Catcher Myatt of the Brewers had a brainstorm. The Brewers accused Cavet of tampering with the ball and Umpire O'Brien examined it. Then he thrust it into his pocket and the row was on. The Brewers wanted to look at that pellet so badly they could hardly talk for wanting to scrap. Myatt finally got so excited he swung his mask at O’Brien’s head. A team mate grabbed his arm and saved the umpire a thump on the dome. In the mixup Myatt and Second Baseman Lear were banished from the lot. It looked like serious trouble for a minute, but the park police squad walked out on the field and the law’s presence had a quieting effect. At any rate, the Indians won. My, what a welcome victory! Vice Bill Smith explained why the Indians won the Friday game. It was won in the morning, he said. A street car struck a wagon load of hay and pushed the entire load against the ball park entrance. The main door was completely hidden behind straw. The driver of the hay wagon thought the ball club officials would be mad about it. He met a surprise. Young Smith thanked him instead of acting peeved. “That hay broke the Tribe jinx," said Smith. Oh, yes, the Saints annexed another. The tail-end Hens didn't offer any opposition. A double-header with the Brewers today, one game Sunday. Monday is an off day. The Minneapolis Millers will be here Tuesday. Eddie Brown didn't get a hit in the first two games with the Brew'ers. Perhaps the presence of a scout in the stands made the hig fellow nervous. Harry Weaver has a badly damaged judex finger on bis left hand. He

other than the Indianapolis entry will ibe Chicago, St. Louis, Detroit, Cin- | einnati. Pittsburgh, St. Paul, Cleveland, New York, Washington and i Boston. | Philadelphia and Toronto also are members of the league, but are uncertain entries in this year’s event. Indianapolis Typos have had a hard

got it Thursday when he knocked down a hard drive through the box. The finger pained him, but he pitched the game out and didn't tell of his Injury until the contest was over. Plenty of nerve, that. Harry may have to miss a turn or two on the mound because of the bruise. Joy reigned by the kegful in St. Louis Friday night. Both Mound City teams were in first place. Order flowers for the Columbus Senators. They lost their tenth straight game Friday. Toledo has quit counting its losses.

Here and There In Sportland

By Dick Anderson

THE day of the “Ole Swimming Hole” is fast slipping into our memories of yesteryear. That old hangout where we “chawed beef’ can't compete with the up-to-date facilities that are being constructed over the land. Asa result more people are learning to swim. Children in tender ages are water fans. In times past, accidents resulting from unnecessary risks anil those that were unavoidable retarded the growth of the sport. Aside from the practibility of swimming, there are few liver sports for the development of the body. Every muscle gets into play during a swim. Every child should be taught to swim. Every grown person should at least know the first principles of the art. WILL tennis supplant baseball as the popular sport in America? Each year the sport gains by leaps and bounds. Any municipality that has not supplied its younger citizens with the facilities to play tennis, is a step behind progress. Tennis teaches one dependability in himself. It brightens the mind and develops the body. Accuracy, nimbleness, durability and quick thinking make for a good tennis player. Almost every kid today owns a' tennis racquet. If he does not, he is behind the times. A niche has been notched in the hall of popular sports of the world for tennis. A FEW short years ago golf was a ■Cx. game played largely by the idle rich. Today it Is a sport for all. Municipal golf links are becoming a common thing in larger centers. Smaller communities are banding together in clubs of their own. Our Country Clubs have always featured golf. The T. B. M. (Tired Business Men) still enjoy the game, but youth has entered the portals of golfdom and the older men, for it has been known as an older man’s game, had better look to their luarels. See you next week.

LEQKARO RISKS CROWN FOR THIRD TIIJIS YEAR Meets Ever Hammer at Michigan City in Ten-Round Go. By United Prett MICHIGAN CITY, Ind., Aug. 5. Benny Leonard risks his title as lightweight champion for the third time within five weeks here tonight when he meets Ever Hammer, the Chicago Swede. Hammer and Leonard will fight a ten-round, no-decision battle in Floyd Fitzsimmon’s bowl, starting about 6 p. m., central standard time. The champion still shows scars of his recent tough battle with Lew Tendler in the East. One eye carries a "shiner." The Tendler bout followed a Fourth of July battle with Rocky Kansas in Fitz's arena. Leonard has done little training, believing he will have an easy time. Hammer has worked every minute and is in tip-top form. Outside of boxing some with his brother Joe, and a little road work, Leonard has scarcely worked up a sweat in his preparation for the bout. Special trains brought thousands from Chicago and other nearby towns. In addition, 6,000 Indiana Elks are meeting here and will see the fight.

JOHNSON WINS MATCH Former Chatnp Beats Williams In Seabright Tennis Tourney. By United Newt NEW YORK, Aug. s.—Little Bill Johnston, who twice held the national tennis title, arose to the perfection that he displayed in his championship years, in defeating R. Norris Williams of Boston, Friday in the final round of the Seabright tournament. The tournament was an invitation affair, but the presence of Johnston, Williams, Watson Washburn, and the French and Australian Davis Cup teams gave it extraordinary importance. Further, the selection for the open position on the American Davis Cup team probably will be based largely on the showing of Americans in the tournament. Johnston won from Williams, 6-0, 6-2, 6-3, playing in superb form. The total point score was Johnston 91 and Williams 69.
