Australian Net Star Tells of Thrilling Battle With French Champion

PUTTER* WINS JETER HARD SETS AND POOR START Jimmy Anderson Stricken With Influenza on Eve of Big 'Match. WOOD IS SUBSTITUTED Cochet Wins Match and Places France on Par In Davis Cup Matches. By GERALD L. PATTERSON Wimbledon Tennis Singles Champion and. Captain of Australian Davis Cup Team. Copyright, J9it. By United Prett. CHESTNUT .HILL, Mass., Aug. 11.— A fine, though rather dull day, favoredconditions for a good game. We were all shocked when we heard Jimmy Anderson yas m bed with influenza and hacf a temperature of 102 degrees. This left me in the very unfortunate position of having to put O'Hara in the singles when he was not really in fit condition. I realized the seriousness of the situation and this probably made me too cautious and was soon in a los ing position in the first set. After a hard stnlggle I lost it, 6-4. Gobert was serving at his top and making, many of his backhand passing shots at acute angles. Wins Serve Realizing Gobert would tire in a four set match, I waited for the third set and serving straight at his body prevented to a certain degree his free swing and passing drives. This policy paid and after a good struggle I managed to capture the set. The rest of seven minutes did us both good, but Gobert came out with greatly renewed vigor and ran to 30. Gobert, tiring, could not stop me till I was at 5-3 and ultimately I got out on my serve for 6-4. At two sets all, things looked better. Gobert had tired considerably now and favored me with a missed volley, which gave me the first game. On my next serve I evened the match at 3 all and continuing took his serve for 3-4 by three backhand passing drives. Gobert was coming to the net on his serve which had lost its 6ting and enabled me to go for my shot. Cramps Overtake Gobert. Things did not Improve for him. for he was struggling against cramp and fatigue. Gobert made no attempt to return rriy drive on the match point, his right hand having developed a cramp. It was a real climax to an exciting game in which I was rather lucky to emerge victorious. O’Hara Wood and Cochet followed and were soon hard at work with length driving for ’the base line. After catching up from 0-4 Wood dropped the first set. 6-4, and then, putting on spikes .did better in winning the second. After the seven-minute interval Wood came back to attack for all he knew. The set should have been his at 6-3, but .Cochet made a remarkable recovery and saved the game. Ultimately Wood took it, 9-7. The game see sawed till 4-3, when O'Hara Wbod lost the next game, after being several times within a point and hitting the net cord three times. Excitement was intense and Cochet, playing remarable tennis, ran out a winner. .This match was far better tennis than the first match, being full of wonderfully fast rallies. Our position tonight is not too bright. We must go “all out” foi the doubles tomorrow, in which tho flirai result may hinge. O’Hara Wood and Patterson will be our team, as there Is no chance of Anderson playing again for a week, at the very earliest.

COMMENT AND GOSSIP ON LIVE SPORTS OF THE DAY

By EDDIE ASH International women's track meet in Paris, Aug. 20, is the latest tddition to the world’s sport calendar. Who would have predicted an event like that twenty years ago? Hardly any one. Women have been participating in sports more and more the past few years, and some splendid feminine athletes have been developed In ennis, trapshooting, golf, swimming, boating and fancy riding... But his world’s track even for women is absolutely new to the athletic annals.

The United States has seventeen contestants entered in the Interna tional tournament. Several States ind Panama are represented among the stars. As for predicting victory’ for the Yankee women, one lnirdly can do .t on the form displayed by the Yankee girls in the training. There are some French, Swiss and English women holding remarkable time records who are sure to make the U. S. contestants hustle. However, the all-around prowess usually possessed by Americans is expected to crop out again in the international women's meet and this allaround skill may determine the victor. You can take it for granted Uncle Sam's feminine representatives will not be beaten without a struggle. Cecil (Red) Causey delivered the goods Thursday and the Indians nosed out the Millers In thirteen innings or tight baseball, 6 to 5. Cecil went the full route and he opposed Hollingsworth, McColl, Thormahlen, and Schauer. Great was tho joy in grand stand, bleachers and the Indian dugout when Dixon romped home with the deciding marker. The victory put the Tribe in sole possession of third place and only one

PERRILL WINS FORT BOUT Seconds Throw Towel In Ring When Sammy Hess Is Badly Trounced. Raining rights and lefts to his opponent’s face. Bud Perrill of Terre Haute completely outfought Sammy Hess of Ft. Wayne last night In the scheduled ten-round main bout at Ft. Benjamin Harrison. Twenty-nine seconds lifter the start of the fourth round, Hess' seconds tossed In the towel. Hess had been on the receiving end of a slashing attack of uppercuts during the second and third rounds and was bleeding from a cut over the left eye and at the nose. The boxers weighed in at 138 pounds. In the first round they appeared evenly matched. Ft. Benjamin Harrison boasts 8 real boxer in Danny Cohen, a welterweight. Cohen slashed and jabbed Spike Kelly all over the ring In their eight-round bout last night. Kelly fought one draw round, the fourth, but the other sevetl rounds were Cohen's. Happy Atherton won a decision over Bobby Haun in four rounds. The boys weighed 110 pounds and both are Indianapolis boxers. Frankie Jones of Louisville will box Battling Budd, champion welterweight of the South, in the main bout of next week’s Ft. Harrison boxing show. What Would Ban Do? Ty Cobb recently tramped his spikes into the feet of Umpire Wilson and Ban Johnson canned the umpiie BABE HOLDS ONE HONOR By United S ev>* NEW YORK, 'Aug. 11—Babe Ruth remains the all-around home run champion, having no favorite wall over which to drop his mighty slams. On the Yanks’ western trip Ruth made six homers, two In Sf. Louis, one In Chicago, one in and two in Detroit. In fact, cf?ly six of his twenty-one homers wort I made at the Polo Grounds.

point out of second place in the league ' sprint. The Indians got twelve hits, the same number as the Millers. Maybe the Hendricksmen are relocating their batting eyes. Leo Dixon got three of the Tribe hits and his double In the thirteenth put the Indians on the road to victory. Schreiber beat out an Infield hit. Causey sacrificed and all hands were safe when Schauer threw too late at third to get Dixon. Rehg failed, ' but Baird delivered with a single over second for the game-winning hit. It was "kids’" day and the little fellows stayed the full distance and -ooted wildly. They were late reporting at home for the evening meal, but they had lots to tell and parents were lenient. The late-inning Saint punch was in evidence at liOUlsvilia Thursday, two runs in the eighth giving the leaders another win Shortstop Def&te Is the hard man for the Indians in the current series. He has been bobbing up tn the timely spots both in the field and at bat. As one fan yelled Thursday, "It’s not the Millers you got to beat; it's Defate!” Now the kids are crowding the oldtimers in the trapshooting garne. The veterans have been accustomed to enjoying full sway in that sport, but Jimmy''Bonnell, New York schoolboy, has challenged their rights. Eleven straight for the Pittsburgh Pirates Thursday. Their prowess was to get a real teet today, however. The Cincy Reds, fresh from walloping the Giants, invaded the Smoky City. Enter Ralph Shinners in the select circle of A. A. homerun hitters. He got one off the Brewers Thursday.
